HITS HIM WITH A PIE.
Girl Employee in Restaurant Puts
RObber to Flight.

Denver, Feb. 8.-A masked bandit
came to grief early today when he was
hit squarely in the face with a hot
custard pie while he was looting the
cash drawer in a downtown restaurant
here.
The robbery occurred about 4
o'clock. Just as the robber entered
the place, Miss Ina Mouat, in charge
of the place at night, walked forward
from the kitchen in the rear. In each
hand she CARED steaming hot Gus
tard pie.
Hold up your handsl" demanded
the robber.
Il won't drop these pies for any vii
lain like you" she said.
Il don't care what you do with the
pies, but don't you move" the holdup
man said as he turned toward the
cash register.
AS he was gathering up some small
change in the drawer, the young wom-
an saw her opportunity and hurled
one of the pies at him. The soft part
of the pie struck him squarely, ard
the surprised robber dashed through
the kitchen and into a back alley,
where he disappeared in the darkness.

new dress, and save yer special affection

II am averse to publicity in connec-

NOT WEARY IN CAUSE
Mrs. M. j. Hay Has Worked As Years
for Suffrage i'm Kansas.

| A visitor to the Topeka Suffrage

Hay, of Seneca, Kansas. She is 30
years old and was one of the workers

suffrage amendment was submitted.
She told of entertaining the principal
workers in that campaign: Elizabeth
Stanton, Lucy Stone. Susan B. Anthony,
Rev. Mr.. Brown and Henry Blackwell
Mrs Hay is a sister of Mrs. Emma
Drew, of Topeka, whom she is visiting
Word has been received that Mrs
Sterry, of Los Angeles, widow of Judge
G. n. Sterry will come to Kansas to
assist in the suffrage campaign. The
Sterrys formerly lived in Emporia,
when Mr.. Sterry was attorney for the
Santa Fe.
The Department of Education has
word that Sherman county has raised
money for cash prizes in the school
essay contest and that the prize essay
will be published in the local paper

The National Headquarters will send
to the local office a catalogue of suf-
fragists in the state, which will be val
liable to them for reference.
The following letter was received to-
day at the headquarters from Mr..
David Leahy:
Dear Mrs. Johnston: Just got my
home paper from Ireland which tells
me that women were elected to the
municipal corporations of the two an
cfent cities Of Dublin and Waterford,
for the first time in history.
Miss Harrison, the Dublin woman
elected. was supported by a heroic -oca1
priest who has been catching plaques
and fevers for many years in the con-
gested districts while WorkiSy for the
benefit of the poor. Both constituencies
are overwhelmingly Catholic. which
shows you how the Church of Ireland
stands towards the question of suffrage.
The lady elected at Waterford was
Miss Mary Strangrnan.
Let me add here that both women are
now eligible to the maporalty of their
respective cities, s mayors in Ireland
are elected from the cooperative mem
bership only and by the members
I thought news of this kind from old
ireland might cheer suffrage head
quarters in Kansas.
