this summer it is to play every evening

Health and Marine Hospital service at
San Francisco. Between September %,

immigrants examined, LOT were found to
be infected with some form of intestinal
parasite. Hindoos showed the largest
proportion. SO per cent being infected.
Seven hundred and seven Japanese fe-
males were examined, of which 401, or
56.7 per cent. were infected. OF ninety
Japanese males examined, fifty or $50 per
cent, were infected. Out of 1902 Chinese
males examined. 800. or $50 per cent,
were infected, while of thirty Chinese fe-
males examined, only six, or 20 per cent,

the most part country girls who have

"Of all the criminal things published
after the sinking of the Titanic, by far
the worst was the story of the riot of

this abomination out of our mind. As

against all possibility that they may be

writer who penned such a monstrous
falsehood must not hang his head in
shame forever? How Incredible the coarse
surmise that man will not meet death

NEWS OF WOMEN

From the London Standard.
Frau Selenka, a professor of natural
history at Munich, who a few years ago
successfully took charge of a research ex-
petition in Java, has now been chosen to
go to Teneriffe on a similar mission. This
expedition, which has for its chief OBJ
ject the observation of anthropold apes,
Is under the direction of Professor Roth
mann of Berlin.
The victory for good municipal govern
ment recently won in Montreal by the
election of the reform candidate for the
office of city controller has been attributed
to the energy of the women. In that city
widows and single women exercise the
right to vote at municipal elections, and
they showed their interest In civic affairs
by voting In about twice as large pro-
portion as the men.
Nine. Aino Malmberg, who is we'll known
in England as an able lecturer and jour-
nallst, has planned a lecture tour through
the United States, where she will speak
on Finland and WOMAN suffrage. Nine.
Malmberg, who was one of the first wom-
en- NJ P.'s to be elected to the Finnish
diet, played an active part in the eountry's
fight for freedom. For participation in
that movement she was imprisoned in
Russia and sentenced to lifelong exile.
Mrs. Chapman Gait, president of the In
ternational Woman Suffrage alliance, and
DR.. Aletta Jacobs of Holland. who are
making a suffrage tour round the world,
have succeeded in arousing a keen inter-
est in the woman question among the
Dutch colonists of Sumatra. Suffrage So
cieties have been formed at MADAM and
Padang, the former having already a
membership OF 60, while as result of
meetings held In Java another society has
been organized on that island.

Fall of the American Napoleon

After lapse of 81 years Waterloo
9as repeated on large scale in poll
- at Chicago. The bluff Of the
American Napoleon was called and he
had nothing in his hand, and in this
respect the two Waterloos were very
much alike.
There was no bolt and there will be
no call for the formation of new
party. Governor Hadley and Senator
Borah and many other of the Roose-
welt leaders decline to become candi-
dates for the madhouse, and organized
opposition within the republican party
has broken down. The steam roller
did it.
But let no one think the old republi-
can organization will look just the
same hereafter. 1t will not. 1t has
esrved the interests so years, and it
stands today naked and faction-torn.
It stands fully exposed, and the peo-
pie will leave the party of Barnes and
the other bosses in swarms. The

lege and monopoly. 1t has talked

ever written, and it will pursue that
policy to the end of its power. To
say that the people do not see all this
is to say that they are unintelligent.
The breaking down of the Roosevelt
effort has not changed the basic stu
alton. The republican party of the
triumphant bosses will more than ever
before represent the interests, de-
pending for success on the raising of
vast campaign funds.
So far as Theodore Roosevelt is con-
cerned the less said about him the
better. Consumed by selfish ambi-
ton he announced after defeat stared
him in the face that he would accept
a nomination by a progressive party
even if he did not get single electoral
vote. In other words, he would lead
a popular movement without follow
ers! This is the nature of his logic
and his consistency, and the quicker
he ceases to vex the public mind the
quicker will sanity and peace return
throughout the nation.

Fair Association Pushing Plans

better than ever before, and that is
