SUFFRAGE NOTES

Men from Four States Where Wom-
 en vote Tell What They Think of it.
 Ex-Governor Bryant B. Brooks of Wyoming says: Nothing can be so far from the truth as the idea that Woman Suffrage has the slightest tendency to disrupt the home. Indeed it has the very opposite effect. As result of it politics is talked freely i'll the family circle, and political questions are settled by intelligent discussion. This has a great and good influence on the growing generation. The children grow up in an atmosphere that encourages mtelli- gent consideration and dehate of public problems, and are thus better equipped to deal with public questions when they reach voting age.'
 Governor Shafroth of Colorado says Political corruption in Colorado is not because of Woman Suffrage, but in spite of it. The contention that good " )men will not vote is flatly contra dicted in the Equal Suffrage States Statistics set at rest the claim that wo uen will not vote. Colorado has had Woman Suffrage for sixteen years, and has found it of inestimable benefit to her people,"
 Judge Ben Lindsey of the Denver Juvenile Court says: "We have in Col orado the most advanced laws of any state in the union for the care and pro- tection of the home and children. We owe this more to Woman Suffrage than to any other cause"
 Ex-Governor John 0. Cutler of Utah s1id: Politics has been benefited by the refining influence of women and, instead of being unsexed or debased, the women have been broadened and bettered intellectually and socially"
 Governor James H. Brady of Idaho said: "Womau Suffrage has been an unqualified success, not only in Idaho. but in all western states adopting the principle"

After Many Narrow Escapes, Mrs.
 Frank Dewitt is Hit by Train.
 Mrs. Frank Dewitt, who lives, on "the sands" and is very deaf, was struck by the 2:24 south bound passenger train, Monday afternoon, and SO badly injured that her recovery is still matter of uncertainty.
 As the train approached the cemetery crossing. Engineer Parish observed the woman walking along down the track. blew his whistle but as the woman was stone-deaf, of course she paid DO heed to the warning, and when the engineer finally saw shat she was not going to save herself, he applied the air-brakes but then it was too late. The pilot struck her in the legs and the buffer" struck her in the head, knocking her several feet to the right of the track. The train came to a stop and Conductor Clark Lane and the train hands picked the woman up. placed her in car and the train was run back to the station, where she was laid on a stretcher and Dr. Lee sent for, who found on exami- nation that her left leg had sustained a compound fracture. her head was hor- ribly bruised and other parts of her body severely bruised. She was bleed ing profusely, especially from the wounds in her head, and although she retained it appeared, from the extent of her injuries, that the result must be fatal. Dr. Lee admin istered anaesthetics and made the sufferer as comfortable as possible and accompanied her on the 4:l7 train to Winsted, where she was conveyed to the hospital. The physicians there ex- pressed the opinlon that she would live.
 The woman had had many narrow escapes on the track before, owing to her deafness, and on one occasion 8 tram came to 8 stop just in time to pre-! vent running her down on tue bridge below this station. On many occasions she has very narrowly escaped being run over by automobiles. ,t
 Latest reports from the hospital are to the effect that the patient is as com fortable as could be expected, and strong hopes are entertained for her recovery.

FISH STOLE KNIFE
Peculiar Manner in which WA. Wright
 Lost his Jackknife.

Lost his Jackknife.
 W. A. Wright is relating 8 circum- stance in his recent experience as fisher man, which goes to show the astonish- ing intelligence of the pickerel.
 He says he went over on the Housa- . tonic river. last week, to fish through the ice Tn order to ascertain the depth of the water at one particular spot he cut small hole through the foe, tied his jackknife to string and let it down into the water. Before the knife could touch bottom pickerel spied 1t and swan up close for critical inspection. After examining the weapon from all sides and finding it satisfactory, the pickerel deliberately bit off the string a few inches above it, and as the knife set tied to the bottom, grabbed it in it's teeth and swan swiftly up the stream with it.
 MT. Wright has no idea what the. fish wanted the knife for, but judging by the clever way it swiped the article he has no doubt it knows how to make ef- fective use of it.
