TREAT PROMISED FOR EUREKA
Equal Franchise Society Arrang-
ing for Charlotte P. Gilman
to Deliver Lecture Here

Senator Robert LaFollette is q cham
pion of Womsn's Suffrage and has the
distinction of being the FIRST politician
Of national prominence to boldly declare
his allegiance to the cause. In his cam
paign speeches in Ohio he said:
I say that the women have as much
right TO the ballot as the men. Do you
know that there are 1000, 900 women
in this country earning their living by
day wages, aud they are adding to the
wealth OF the nation? For this reason
they have a moral right to have q voice
in the questions of sanitation and all
that goes to improve living conditions
Of the home, which are governed by
legislation.
The motive of the Equal Franchise
Society for giving the dance on the
evening Of Labor Day is to procure the
necessary funds to enable them to give
the people Of Eureka County q genuine
treat. in the form Of q lecture by Mrs..
Charlotte Perkins Gilman. As a lady
speaker would be something of q novelty
in Eureka at any time, and as Mrs.
Gilman is no ordinary speaker, having
travelled throughout Europe and all over
the United States, where she has been
universally ~eulogized for her charming,
intellectual ability, the members of the
Equal Franchise Society are justified in
believing that they are preparing a
treat for every one.
They do not intend charging any ad-
mission fee for the speaking, therefore
you will receive double you moneys
worth by ~patronizing the Leap Year
Dance.
Judging from her photograph, Mrs.
Gilman is a very handsome woman. and
has a dimple in her chin that ought to
fetch the most skeptical. However, we
are told that al soon as Mrs. Gilman
commences to speak you forget all about
her looks and live only in the magical
power of her great brilliancy.
Many glowing tributes have been paid
Mrs. Gilman by the leading papers of
America, England. Germany, Austria
and Hungary. The "London Clarion"
says:
MRS. Gilman's voice is gentle and
low-an excellent thing in a W oman
When she is making a good point-and
she makes many-there is q delightful
chuckle in her voice which is positively.
infectious. Finally, Mrs. Gilman as a
lecturer is fluent, epigrammalic, logical,
humorous and exceedingly interesting.
Her talk is full of meat. l don t think
l ever heard any public man say SO much
in, an hour, or say it so WELL"
But you must all come aud see, hear,
and then-judge for yourselves.
Where are you going, my pretty mail?
To the Leap Year Party, Sir, she said.
May l go with you, my pretty maid?
Has nobody asked you, Sir she said.
Is every one going, my pretty maid?
Of course they are, kind Sir, she said.
And you may come, too, and go with me,
I'll show you the time of your life. said she.

In contrast with yesterday, bonds were

Jury Superior Court Reports That Cannot Agree-De- liberated All the Aftenoon-Judge Shumway Leaves Case With Them Over Night-GriswoId Mans Care taker Gets $500 From His Estate.

The superior court was occupied all day Tuesday with the case of Ida K. Billings, executrix, vs. Kenneth Me Kenzie, a suit over a right of way at shore property at East Lyme, and when court adjourned at 4.30 o'clock until this morning at 10 the case was still In the hands of the jury, which had twice reported that it was unable to agree upon a verdict.
 The concluding arguments by Will liam H. Shields for the defendant and by Hadlai A. Hull for the plaintiff oc- cupied the morning until just after noon, and Judge Shumway took up 38 minutes in his charge to the jury, which took the case at 12.45. They had dinner from 1 to 2 o'clock and then considered the case in the jury room. At 2.50 the jury came in and at the request of one of them the entire tes- timony of the plaintiff was read by Court Reporter Graham. This occu- pied about 25 minutes.
 After the jury had retired again, they next came in at 4.07 and reported through Foreman Daniel w. Williams that they were unable to agree upon a verdict.
 Judge Shumway spoke to them ear nestly along the line of reaching an agreement if possible. referring to a proneuncement by the supreme court upon the duty of those who were in the minority to endeavor to come to an agreement with the majority if possible.
 He told them he would send them back to the jury room until 4.30. At that time they returned again and again reported nc agreement. This | time he told them he should still not discharge them from the case, but advised them to think it over during the night. Court was then adjourned Cases to Be Settled.

THE PoSTMASTERSHIPS.
People Would Be Satisfied if No
 Changes Were Made.

The Second congressional district, containing as it does four counties, has more postmasterships at its dis posal than any other congressional dis trict in the state. Many of these off, cials have held their places many years and are deservedly popular in their communities, and the people of these places would be entirely satisfied if no change were made. It would be difficult in New London. for instance, to secure much of petition of resi- dents and voters to displace Postmas- ter Mckinley, and in Norwich to re- move Postmaster Caruthers. No doubt similar condition exists in other Con- necticut communities.
 No doubt Congressman Mahan will have considerable pressure brought upon him te recommend the appoint ment of new men to postmasteFships in his district, but. knowing the senti-
 ment of the people of the towns af- fected he can afford to go slow and recommend ne changes unless the inn proveaent of the postal service de- mands it.-NeW London Day

CAME FROM ATTLEBORO
 TO MARRY HERE Chauffeur Fred D. Knight and Miss Helen D. Lynch Found Parson Aft CT Some Trouble

Two young people from Attleboro, Mass, taking out a marriage license here on Tuesday afternoon at the town clerks office. had a somewhat trouble some time locating a minister to make them one, but were finally successful, and became man and wife at the home of Rev. J. Eldred Brown about six o'clock, upon their second call at his house.
 The young man was Fred David Knight giving his age as 22 and his occupation as a chauffeur and his bride to-be gave her name in the mar riage license as Helen Butcher Lynch, 21, a native of New York, but now residing in AttlebOrO, and the daugh- ter of Edward Lynch and Abby Wright. The groom o-be was born in East Providence, and is a Widower, the son of Charles w. Knight and An nie L. Nelson.
 The two on matrlmony bent applied at the town clerks office at about five o'clock for a license, which was soon issued, and they departed to find Rev H. J. Wyckoff, who had been indi- cated to them as the nearest minister But he was not at home when they called at his house on Church street and they came strolling back towards In6 courthouse ana up union street where inquiry from some children about minister sent them up to Otis street to the residence of Rev. MT Brown. But he was not at home anG they turned back toward the center of the city.
 , Right here was a chance for Cupid by some subtle intuition to have fol lowed up his good work by giving then some intimation that they were right in the middle of the marrying zone but he failed miserably. There were ministers all around them if they haC only known it. Across the street was Rev. George A. Bryan; on Union stree | as they passed along by the Little blair was Rev. E. s. Worcester, and or Broadway as they paced slowly dowr | the hill was the home of Rev. pr Lewellyn Pratt to one side of them ! and that of Rev. Frank R. Palmer or | the other.
 But of this they were unconscious l and their half-hour search for a par. son finally ended at a Broadway res | taurant, where they sat down to sup. | per, and afterwards went again to tn, home of Archdeacon Brown, whert 1 they were married.

 GriswoId Case Settled.
 The next to follow the case now on trial was settled on Tuesday. This was the case of Mrs. Frances L. Whip pie vs. Grace W. Webster, administra- trix of the estate of Clark R. Cook of Griswold. Brown & Perkins appeared for the plaintiff, A. M. Brown and At torney Jacobs for the defendant.
 The suit was brought on a claim made by Mrs. Whipple against the es- tate of the late Clark R. Cook, in which she put in claim for $526.50 for services and $22.20 for money paid out in taking care of MT. Cook from Sept. g. 1911, to the date of his death, Jan. 8, 1912. She had been secured by the selectmen of GTisWold to take care of old MT. Clark, when he was found helpless and unable to take care of himself. The bill she put in against the estate wis disallowed by the ad- ministratrix. The settlement was made for the sum of $500 and costs of suit, amounting to $3721.
