What was really needed to give variety
and piquancy to this great week of suf-
frage, with everything going one way
was an attack from the enemy-and it
came! Sunday the Rev. Robert f. l..
Jarvis, pastor of the largest and most
fashionable church in the city, under the
subject "Perils Of Christianity begged
his congregation to ignore this move
ment The three great perils of Chris
tianity. he pointed out, were the loosen
| ing grip Of the Bible; modern socialism,
as expressed by Mother Jones, who said
if she had her way she would burn every
church, and on the ruins erect statue
To Tom Paine" and the entrance of
women into the arena of politics"
She is abdcating the throne where
| her influence has been supreme for thou
sands of years" he said. and mounting
the hobby horse of politics to ride forth
CALAMITY in search of the Holy Grail,
but let her remember that when
she dons her spurs and mounts her po-
litical steed she lays aside the gentle
mower which has ever been masterfu in
influencing the knights of Chivalry.'
1t is a great pity the Rev. Mr.. Jarvis
had not come to the suffrage convention
this morning and heard Leonora O'Reilly,
OF the New York Womcn's Trade Unions
League tell of the 10000 women in that
state sitting on thrones and influencing
the knights OF chivalry while earning
their daily bread in the sweatshops, tene-
ment houses and factory fire traps.
"Womans entrance into politics will
mean her own degradation" said the d.
vine. The absence Of that finer feeling
which man entertains for woman is in
| the atmosphere when she raises the BAN
ner of votes for women This is shown
| by an incident I observed the other day
| in Witherspoon Hall. The corridors were
| crowded with women wearing badges
and acting as If at political convention.
| Two men were trying 10 get through to
the elevator. and heard one say, 'Heav-
ems. has it come to this?' and the reply
of the other was, Hell, il has!
OF course, If these women had been
crowding their way in a railroad station
or ferry or to get into matinee or a
religious convention, the fine feelings OF
man for woman would not have had to
express itself In profanity.
"Womans entrance into politics means
an increase in race suicide" he said, quot
! ing the ruin Of France, as an example,
! but it so happens that the women OF
/ France have not, and never have had, the
suffrage, and that in New Zealand and
Australia, where they have voted for
years. large families are the rule. WON
an suffrage means the smouldering OF the
embers on the sacred affairs OF nome ms
was the final assertion, and, Of course III
! that case those fires have long since gone
out and race suicide prevails in Wyoming
Colorado and those other states where
women have voted for from twenty 20
forty years minister of the Gospe'
certainly would not make such charges

A bug walk" is also usually found on
the premises Of the cockroach landlord.
The phrase, which was coined by men
hiking to the diamond fields of South
Africa. is not a pretty one. The bug
walk" was the bedbug- infested tent and
bed which spelled death to many a man
during the hard trek TO Kimberley; the
men who arrived in robust health at the
mines were the men like Barnato, who
walked beside the wagons all day and
slept under them at night" Exposure 20
all the winds of heaven by day and by
night was safer than warmth and pro-
lection when shared with hordes of blood
sucking insects. These men needed no
scientist with a microscope to prove to
them the noxlous insect acted as a trans
portation agent for killing disease germs;
observation and experience taught them
their foe.
It Is as true I'm New York City to-day
as It was in Du Toits Pan, South Africa,
in 1S70-'S0, that IT is safer to sleep in the
open than to consort with bedbugs in any
habitation.
The fact that the presence OF bedbugs
in house has any relationship to plumb
ing is not widely known. A housewife
may be almost maddened by the constant
recurrence OF these pests and ignorant
of the method by which they effect an
entrance to the building 1t is probably
true that the usual method is transfer
renee on clothing, but bulletin of the
United States Bureau of Entomology
gives authentic instances Of migration by
means Of water pipes and roof cutters.
"Bedbugs continue to migrate from one
house TO another, sometimes for period
OF several months, gaining entrance daily
Such migration Is especially likely to take
place If the human inhabitants Of an in
tested house leave it. The migratory in
stinct is developed with a failure OF thelI
usual source OF food, and, escaping
| through windows, they pass along walls
water pipes or cutters, and thus gain en-
trance into adjoining houses"
Again, as with the cockroach, IT may be
no fault whatever OF the housewife thai
the pest gains admission. The fault lies
! rather with the house owner or with the
municipality that permits their continued
existence. 1t is said that In the Cana
! Zone the appearance OF one yellow fever
mosquito creates as much commotion as

BROWN BETTY CBy RequesO.-The
mention of Brown Betty" pudding car
rles with II all the atmosphere of the
oldtime household The following recipe
has been thoroughly tested and found
excellent. Butter the inside surface OF an
earthen baking dish and place In it a
thick layer of apples, quartered and sliced.
Dredge with sugar and grated nutmeg
and dot with bits of butter. Then cover
with a layer Of bread crumbs that have
been soaked in milk. Do not use much
milk, as the tartness of the apples ana
the sweetness OF the milk do not COM
blne well. There will be no danger Of an
unpleasant combination, however, II the
crumbs are moistened enough so that
they will not harden with baking. Sprin-
kle the top with nutmeg and little sugar
and brush with melted butter. Bake UNI
Ill the apples are done and rich brown
crust covers the top. Serve with thick,
sweetened cream or with hard sauce
favored with wine. The hard sauce is
better when made with powdered sugar
and not granulated sugar. Raisins may
be used I'm this pudding II desired. GIN
namon and cloves, too, may De put INTO
A as we'll as nutmeg by those VINO IKE
a very spicy pudding, but II is certainly
delicious and more delicate when nutmeg
is the only spice used. Use plenty Oh IL
and plenty OF butter on top to give the
pudding an attractive crust. Molasses OF
times used in place Of milk, and II the
apples are very tart, IL may be preferred;
Dried rusk is sometimes used In place OF
ordinary bread crumbs II is well TO keep
the pudding dish covered during the
greater part of the time II is in the oven
90 that the crust will not be too hard.
"Brown Betty" should be served in the
dish in which II was baked, and IL is
equally good hot or cold,
SPANISH SAUCE.-To two cupfuls OF
strained tomato pulp add small onion
minced and two green peppers cut small.
Boil them for fifteen or twenty minutes
until the peppers are tender Thicker
with a tablespoonful of flour and table
spoonful OF butter rubbed together. This
sauce is an appetizing accompaniment to
many plain dishes. Hash loses its iden-
tity entirely smothered by the bright red
and green, and veal outlet is greatly inn
proved by it. 1t is also good over an
omelette. NJ. c. =.

ATTACKS WOMAN'S CLAIM
One Mrs. Fox Asserts She and
Not Another Is Real Widow.

The complicated affairs Of the late iar-
rig A. Fox will come up in the Surro-
gates Court to-day, when Mrs. Martina
Fox will ask for the revocation of let
tiers of administration granted to Mrs.
Lillian Fox, who says that she also was
the wife OF the dead man.
For several years, II is alleged. Fox
maintained two households-one where his
wife and two children lived and the other
in which lived Mrs. Victoria Gross and
her pretty daughter, Lillian Gross. There,
too. II is said he had a son, who is now
fourteen years old, and whose mother
WAS Mrs. Gross. He supported Mrs. Fox
and her family during this double exist
ence, but went TO their home only once a
week. Mrs. Martha Fox says that she
yielded to the inevitable
Mrs. Gross died in 1909. Fox In 1911 OBJ
tained a divorce from his wife In Brook
lyn and then married Lillian Gross. Mrs.
Fox alleges that the affidavit Of service
in the divorce suit against her was false,
and that the testimony given against her
at the trial of the divorce suit, about
which she knew nothing, was also per-
tinued to visit the home Of his first WIFE,
and never mentioned the suit he had
brought against her and won by her al
legged default
Fox committed suicide about two weeks
ago. The first and, according to her tes-
timony the only legal wife and her chill
dren attended the funeral Fox was buried
in Bayside Cemetery. When Mrs. Fox got
there. she says. she was further sur
prised and shocked to see on the tomb
stone over the grave Of Mrs. Gross VIC
toria Fox, beloved wife OF Harris a.
Fox" which further complexities the case.
The woman who calls herself Mrs.
lillian Fox obtained letters OF admins
tratIon, placing the value Of the estate
Of Fox at $500. In her action to have
these letters revoked and have letters
granted to her Mrs. Martha Fox says her
husbands estate was valued at $1,000.

rotary of State that the returns from
large majority of counties contained mis-
takes and were sent back for correction.

WOMAN SAVES PATROlMAN
Rescues Him from He'll Gate
Currents=Two Missing.

Patrolman Otto Schmuck, attached 10
the East 10th street police station IS
lowering between life and death In st.
Johns Hospital, Long Island City, ana
two OF his friends are believed TO have
been drowned, as the result of tug Of
the New York, New Haven * Hartford
Railroad cutting down the motorboat In
which the men were. The accident hap
pened carly yesterday morning, while the
party was fishing in the waters Of Hell
Gate.
The fact that Schmuck is alive to-day
is probably due to the efforts OF Mrs.
Caroline Phillips. a widow, living at No.
IS Hoyt street, Astoria. She discovered
the patrolman hanging on to some Of the
wreckage Of the boat Without any hesi-
tation the widow, Drawing the treacher-
Gus current, swan out and rescued him.
A police boat put out after the accident
was reported, and spent the greater part
OF the day searching for the bodies OF
Schmuck's friends. They are Joseph IL.
Willocks, Of No. SAT East 149th street, The
Bronx, and William Livingston, living
with his wife and family at Park avenue
and s0th street
At the Hospital Schmuck told a har-
rowing tale os how for two hours he had
tried to battle against the currents Of
He'll Gate. On several occasions he had
almost given up hope of ever being res
cued. He said he was fast losing con-
seriousness when Mrs. Phillips reached his
side Later in the evening Schmuck went
into further details regarding the acct
dent.
He said he and his two friends were cut
on q fishing expedition. When they
reached Hell Gate they found the water
too rough and decided TO return. He said
that Just as they were rounding HalleI's
Point, and without any EARNING, the tug
doomed up in sight Before he could get
out OF the way II ran down his motor
boat, almost cutting II in half and
throwing the occupants into the water.
Mrs. Phillips said 1t was about $50 when
she saw an object in the water off Hoyt
street. When she realized that 1t was a
human being she Immediately jumped into
the water and brought him ashore. She
learned to swim, she said, when she was
five years old.
