Turing my trip home from
Europe this fall | saw the
smoking woman in one of her
most displeasing aspects. She in
habited the smoking room of a big
steamship together with the men
smokers. and she set me thinking
on the problem of her influence
upon the cause of equal rights,
which so many Of her sisters now
have at heart (There were, in
fact, three or four of her. but
speak Of her in the singular num-
Der for convenience Her age va
ried from twenty or twenty-five to
ffty)
She smoked, and she drank, with
the men. She was as skillful in
imitation as the japanese. but, un-
like them. she chose to initiate
vice instead of an excellence. She
was, indeed. more graceful than the
men in the art of handling the Gig
arctic. With its gold tip. it be-
came almost a thing Of beauty in
her slender fingers. But when she
set it at a saucy angle in her lips,
applied a match and blew the smoke
through her nostrils, all the charm
vanished.

10th HUNDRETH ANNIVERSARY
OF PEACE OF CONSTAN-

Next year the Catholics in ey-
cry part Of the globe will ee1e-
brate the sixteenth hundredeth
anniversary of the peace Of Con-
stantine, by which act Christian
ity emerged from a state Of sup
pressed religion to that Of one
duly recognized by the Roman
Empire, the head of which be-
came its champion. In commem-
GRAFTON of this fact there is to be
erected in Rome a great church,
the gift of Catholics throughout
Christendom, which is to be
known as the Church of the Holy
Martyrs. A number of prelates
from each of the nations are to
have a vote in the committee
that will pass upon the plans of
this edifice. The church will be
built near the Milvian bridge,
where Maxentius was pressed in
to the Tiber when he tried to re-
turn to Rome. Cardinal Gibbons
will confer with the members of
the hierarchy, and it is under
stood will shortly make known
what form the national commit
tee will take. There IS no doubt
but that the new church in the
Eternal City viii take its place
among the most magnificent and
imposing structures in the world.

'BROUSSARD SCORED By
THIRD DISTRICT
PAPER.
Thibodaux Gommereial-JOurnal
Charges Him With Serving
the N. O. Bosses In Pay
ment for the knitting
of Sanders.

IL Was openly CndISGus dI1N
events bolstered that charge into
an almost undeniable fact, that
the city ward bosses had entered
into a deal with Bob Broussard
by which Broussard was to turn
over to the ring the vote Of the
Third District in exchange to
the rings support Of Broussards
candidacy for the Senate.
Every day brings about cor
roboration of this treachery to
Sanders on the part of the New
Orleans bosses, and Of Brous-
sard's pertidy and hypocricy IN
pretended support of Gov. Halls
candidacy.
Some newspapers in his own
District are now beginning tosee
the light, and the Thibodaux
lCommercial-Journal Of last week
lfays its Congressman in the fol
lowing caustic manner:
The New Orleans ring made
a desperate fight in the Legisla-
ture last week to defeat the
clause in the primary law which
gives only to the illiterate and
physically disabled the right to
secure assistance at the polls,
assuring the secrecy Of the bal
lot. All that could be done was
done to defeat the measure, but
all failed. The ring pressed n
to service Broussard, the Con-
gresham from this district, who
is reported to have sent the most
ridiculous kilograms to the rep
resentatives in both houses Of
the Legislature from the third
district, beseeching them to vote
against the primary law pro-
posed. Broussard, it is common
" reported in Baton Rouge, ia
fact it is the topic of CONVERSE
tion, has been working against
the measures of the Good Gov
ernment League platform prona-
Used the people and seems to take
delight in trying to make q fail

tration by his tactics. This Is
the man who so hypoeritically
declared a few weeks ago that
he was an Independent man and
had preached in the campaign
against those who had tried to
thwart the will Of the people.
Broussard is but repaying the
New Orleans ring for the vote
they gave him as Senator, when
ne induced them 70 knIIe pan-
ders. He is but following the
practice he has always followed,
playing both sides but beingpa
tial to the ring and political
bosses. His treatment Of Guey
dan, his friend, IS also beng
freely discussed.
Numerous attempts. it's said,
have been made to draw Brous
sard out on the income tax, par
ticularly while this measure was
ibefore the Legislature, while he
was wiring representatives Of
Baton Rouge to defeat the pri
mary law, he did not wire obout

He MUST DIG.

He wanted a job, and, like every one else,
He wanted a good one, you know;
Where his clothes would not soil and his hands would
keep clean,
And the salary mustn't be low.
He asked for a pen, but they gave him a spade,
And he half turned away with a shrug,
But he altered his mind, and, siezing the spade-he dug!
He worked with a will that is bound to succeed,
And the months and the years went along.
The way it was rough and the labor was hard,
But his heart he kept filled with a song.
Some ieered him and sneered at the task, but he plugged
Just as hard as he ever could plug;
Their words never seemed to disturb him a blt-ash he dug.
The day came at last when they called for the spade,
And gave him the pen in its place.
The joy of achievement was sweet to his taste,
And victory shone in his face.
We can't always get what we hope for at first
Success cuts many queer Jigs,
But one thing is sure-a man will su~cceed-ifhe digs.

Telephone service, linking together city and country and shore,
is never more appreciated than during the summer months.
While thesbusiness man is confined to his desk IN the city, the
telephone keeps him in touch with wife and family, though they
may be many miles away, sunmering at some pleasant resort.
During his own vacation the business man relies upon the tele,
phone. He IS free from care, for he knows that he can be reached
at one BY telephone should important matters require his attention.
At the vacation home also, the telephone proves so convenient
IN arranging games and outings with friends and ordering sup

At a meeting of the Civic Club last
spring State Superintendent Bray,
among other things in his address,
called attention to the avisability of
using the public school auditorium
for the benefit of the general public
of this city He outlined the plan
to considerable extent and told in
what way the building could be prop
erly used to the advantage Of the cit
izens.
Of late several have spoken of this
idea and agree that it would be a
good plan if it could be arranged and
not be carried to the extreme. The
citizens own the building and pay for
its up-keep and there are practically
only few hours out of the "a when
it is in use, while building of that
kind and costing the amount of
money it has, should be working
nearly all of the time.
The question should be brought

Both of these gentlemen are most
gifted orators and their addresses
Will be both interesting and instru.-

much for everybody as for Demo

1t Is more important that the otner
political followers should be there
as they will most likely learn some
thing to their advantage. while the
