WOMEN IN RIOT At
SUFFRAGE MEET
SHOUT ACCUSATIONS AT ONE AN.
OTHER AFTER THEY ASSEM-
BILE IN CHICAGO HOTEL.
POLICE STOP PROCEEDINGS
Turbulent Meeting Followed Adoption
of Paragraph in Bylaws Which
Did Not Suit One Faction
in Female Party.

Chicago, Ill.-A riot-wild - filled
with hysterical women, laughing
weeping and yelling, shouting accusa
tions at one another and declaring
You're hypocrites!" You're thieves!"
You're robbers!" resulted in the po.
lice being called to the LaSalle hotel,
where the Woman's party was having
tits annual meeting. Never in the his
tory of American suffrage has there
been such demonstration.
The turbulent meeting followed
many months of bitter antagonism in
the Woman's party. Mrs. Charlotte
Rhodus and her followers declared
that Mrs. Myra Strawn Hartshorn,
chairman of the organization, was ar.
bitrarily ruling the organization and,
tired of her bossism, they went to
Springfield a week ago and incorpo-
rated a "Woman's Party of Cook
County" with the avowed purpose of
ousting Mrs. Hartshorn from the or
ganization. Mrs. Hartshorn immedl-
ately got together three of seven
members of a committee appointed
by the original Woman's party to re-
wise the bylaws. The other members
of the committee were not authorita-
lively notified of the meeting, conse-
quently were not present. Those pres
ent were strong supporters of Mrs.
Hartshorn.
One paragraph in the bylaws made
by this committee of three provided
that any woman belonging to another
body or corporation for suffrage pur.
poses could be expelled and her name
dropped from the rolls of the Wo
mans party.
When these bylaws were presented
at the meeting for adoption, the fight
began. Mrs. Rhodus declared the by
laws illegal, inasmuch as three mem
bers of the committee that prepared
them did not constitute a quorum.
Attorney Mary Miller, Mrs. Harts
horns staunchest follower, then shout
ed, for she couldn't be heard unless
she did, 81 am going to read these by
laws and we are going to vote upor
them"
Mrs. Hartshorn upheld her and thu
, reading began. Following the read
: ing, which could not be heard three
feet away, the chairman called for
, standing vote.
AS announced by her, the vote stood
Yes, 81; no, %. Then the fur flew

the eminent criminologist, will be
seen at the Crystal theater Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday, March A,
and 6.
1t is safe to say that this picture
lecture will be the most sensational
and at the same time the most in
structive exhibition that the people
of this city have ever witnessed.
The doctor takes his audience
through the various phases of Grim
inal life with authentic portrayals
SO VIVID that they are held SPELL
bound from start to ilnish.
You learn the history of the con-
Wet from the arrest until the pris-
oner is released either by death or
the law.
The doctor can tell at a glance the
character of any person and is mas
ter of criminology.
The parents of Grand Junction
should see that their children hear
and see this lecture, as they will see
the inner side of convict life, les
son never to be forgotten.
AS an attraction it has proven to
be the best of its kind in all the
larger cities of the east and the peo-
pie of Grand junction will have
chance to see it at The Crystal thea
ter.
The doctor changes his scenes and
views as well as lecture each night.

unpleasant, we three together" And
now they are convalescing rapidly
and will be back in Ashland before
Easter. fully recuperated and ready
to begin all over again.
Just like the rest cure. Gases of
persons taking the opportunity for
an operation when home, social or

man WHIPPED AT POST
IN PREACHERS PRESENCE
ent,nel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Wilmington, Del, March 5.-For
the first time in the history of the
Delaware whipping post a clergyman
witnessed the flashing of prisoners
yesterday. The Rev. Mr.. Charles
Candee. pastor of the Westminster
Presbyterian church of Wilmington
largest and wealthiest of the de-
nomina lions in Delaware-saw five
convicts whipped, or the total of 100
lashes on their bare backs in freezing
weather.
His purpose was to get practical
ideas on corporal punishment.
The whipping post is degrading,
he said. Il disapprove of this form
of punishment because it is not
justified Punishment is supposed to
be reformative, but the whipping
post has the opposite effect"
The Rev. Mr.. Candee is student
of criminology. He conducts relig-
ious services once a month at the
