VOTES FOR WOMEN


Editors Noe.--The recent adoption
by california 81 "a constitutions
amendment granting suffrage u
women was marked by what was ia
many respects the most stubborn and
dramntic struggle NJ the polls IN the
history 81 the state. The Suffrage
measure was fought bitterly by power
ful business interests The remnants
OF the old railroad rims. that governed
California for 80 years before IL was
beaten h. the election OF the present
state administration. rallied again, Ia
bar the women from the polls. For
days after the polls closed the result
was Ia doubt The women won by a
margin estimated Co be not more than
5000 votes out OF approximately 800
900 votes cast
The story OF the struggle aud tho
elements that were I'm u and hack OF

Detroit Times commissioned Dr. Grace
Kirkland. an experienced newspaper
writer. who was prominent in tho Cali
fornia suffrage campaign, Ia tell the
first Of series OF three articles pre-

The name of California stands for
the marvelous-the golden in his

lures and in ship.building, California
is rapidly forging TO the front. OF raw
material alone there is an annual
shipment from California OF varied
products amounting TO not less than

greatest state that has yet gone for
suffrage.
History Of Movement.
AS in all cases. the pioneer suf-
fragists in California first met ridi-
cute, rebuffs and actual insults. Bills
were killed in the legislature, pledges
were broken and for so years Cali

II was not easy to get several hun

il had taken years 10 get sentiment
up to that point. How. in six months,
were nearly 100000 scattered. voters

Grants Birthday.

April 2T.-This is the birthday Of
Ulysses :. Grant. tanner. soldier,
president. And the funny part OF it
l.; that his name was not Ulysses S.
s. all. As a matter Of fact he was
christened Hiram Ulysses by the pro-
cess OF putting a number OF names in
q hat and the poor child having to
stand for the result AS a lad he
worked in the tannery run by his
father and was just an ordinary
country boy with a decided love for
horsefiesh and a good reputation as
driver. At school he was a good
student. and his father began TO cast
about for a vocation for the young
man. He decided to send his son 10
West Point, and on leaving his trunk
bore the initials II. L. G." Fearing
that his schoolmates might use the
letters for a nickname, he had them
changed to ~. H. G." and so signed
the registry. But that did not hold
as the congressman had entered him
as Ulysses S. Grant, and that was the
name that stuck all through the war,
all his life, that was so full OF honor
ard glory.

A new form of roller skate, the in
rsntion of NJ Louis Marchand. a
young French engineer, will shortly
be seen on this side. a large quantity
OF them having been imported for the
present season.
These skates. which resemble moth
ing more than miniature bicycles.

Dramatically. They have thick pneu-
matte tires and the wheels. of which
there are two on each skate, are II
Inches In diameter.
Thirty miles an hour can easily be
made by an inexperienced skater with
these skates. The skate Is clamped
20 the shoe. and when the foot is
raised a spring is automatically
wound up around a specially construct
cd gear attached to the rear wheel
When the foot is put to the ground
the pressure releases the spring, IN
winds the gear. and revolves the rear
wheel at a great rate. Nearly 900 rev.
buttons a minute are thus produced.
