JEALOUSY CHARGED
BY WOMEN H|kERS
When New York Leaders Tell
Them Not to Deliver
Message to Wilson.
(National News Association

HAYATTSVILLE, Md, Feb. 27.-
The hiking suffragettes today were
robbed of the honor of delivering the
suffragettes' message to President
elect Wilson, for which they had
tramped 200 miles from New York to
this point. The blow was a crushing
one to the women and was contained
in a telegram received by General"
Jones from Mary Ware bennett, cor
responding secretary of the National
American Women's Suffrage League
of New York 1t read. the executive
board today voted that you present
the message to the congressional COM
mittee." The message was from the
New York suffrage headquarters and
created general amazement and con-
sternation. The mixers leaders made
known the contents while the little ar
my was struggling through the mud
enroute to this city from Laurel, Nd.
The hikers became indignant, made
charges Of jealousy and demanded
that their general deliver the mes
sage to Mr. Wilson "I think such a
plan would be a bad one" said the
general" We must be dignifed and
We shall bow to the wishes of the New
York leaders. / shall turn over the
message to the Washington congress
sional committee as requested"

Highly Probable That Eighth
Street Will Be paved With
Brick-Lowest Bid Sets
Cost at $27,o19.O4.
WORK is TO START
WITHIN FEW WEEKS
When Paving Is Completed
There Will be Stretch of
More Than Two Miles of
Brick Paved Streets.

The bids for the biggest improve
ment Of the year, the paving of Eighth
street from North E street to South
III street with the exception of two
squares already paved between North
"A street and South A street were re-
ceived by the board of works this
morning and the contract, which will
be let later will probably be awarded
to Sisk, Sprinkle and Level, contract
ing 6rm of Portland, Indiana, whose
bid was the lowest of the eight pre-
scented. Brick was decided upon for
the paving and eleven materials were
named in the bids for the board.
The average prices for the different
kinds Of brick named in the bid of
iSisk, Sprinkle and Level was about
'$1.72 per square yard. This is cents
lower than the estimate which was
$3.50 per square yard. At the aver
age price of the brick per square yard
the total cost of the improvement will
be $27,919.04 of which the city will
have to pay approximately $4,000 for
Ats share of the Improvement
Ten Days to Decide.
Ten days are allowed for the proper
ty owners to decide which kind of
brick they prefer for the paving. If
the property owners have no choice,
it rests with the Board of works
When the kind of brick is selected and
the contract let, the work on the i'm
provement will begin Immediately. It
will probably not be finished in one
season.
The bid of SLIP is the lowest pre-
sented the board for brick paving
this year. The paving of Fort Wayne
avenue, which was done. last year by
Hipskind and Son, cost $3.50 per
square yard, that being the lowest
price of brick work ever presented
the city Most of the bids presented
this morning were between $3.50 per
square yard and $1,90 per square yard
TWO Squares Unpaved.
The S. S. Saxton company Of Chi
cago and Richmond, presented the low
est bids on asphalt and concrete
Both of these materials are much high
er than brick and were not selected
for that reason and because they are
not believed by the board, to be as dur
able as brick. The bid was retained
as the property owners may desire
either one of these materials. The
Daniel G. Burkhardt company was the
lowest bidder on brick with the excep-
tion of Sisk, Sprinkle and Level, and
his bid was retained to protect the
city if the lowest bidder does not full
fill his part of the contract for any
reason.
With the completion Of this improve
ment there will be stretch of brick
paving more than two miles long with
the exception of two squares on North
Tenth street from North F street to
North III street. The rest of the dis
tance from the Reid Memorial hospital
to South H street will be paved with
this material.

Would Beat His Small
Children; Throw Them on
Floor and Curse Them.
MARKS AND BRUISES
ON DAUGHTERS BODY
When Mother demonstrated
She Was Cursed-Children
Shrank When Footsteps of
Father Were Heard.

A pitiful story was unfOlded in po-
lice court this morning at the trial of
William r. Felty, 223 North Twenti-
eth street, charged with cruel and in
human treatment to his child, Thel-
ma, who is two years old today and
his two other children, aged four
years and aged four months Mrs. Eel
ty appeared at the trial carrying her
four-months old baby in her arms.
The other two children were with her.
Felty pleaded guilty to the charge and
was fined the limit of the law, $50 and
costs and given a jail sentence of thir-
ty days. The sentence was later sus-
pended.
Mrs. Felty was not the cause of her
husbands arrest as Chief of Police
Gormon caused the arrest as the re-
suit of numerous complaints received
from neighbors of Felty, who appear
ed as witnesses this morning. Felty
is an engineer on the Pennsylvania
railroad and is said to be one of the
best on the local division.
Little Body Bruised.
Prosecuting Attorney Keller asked
Mrs. Felty to show the Mayor the
marks and bruises on the body of the
two-year-old daughter, Thelma. The
court was satisfied as to charges of
the brutality Of the defendant before
any of the testimony was given but
allowed the witnesses to take the
stand to determine the extent of Eel
tvs cruelty to the children.
Mrs. Felty and the other witnesses
rough manner in which the children
were handled by the father. 1t is said
that he took the children by their ears
and tossed them to the ceiling allow
ing them to fall to the floor where he
cuffed and beat them. Any attempt at
interference on the part of the almost
distracted mother elected kicks and
curses upon her from Felty, it was
said. Saturday night, it is alleged, Eel
ty came home at midnight and seized
the children from the beds where they
were sleeping. Taking them to the
kitchen he beat them confining Thel-
ma with him for more than one hour
during which time he beat and mis-
treated her.
Feared Fathers Return.
Neighbors testified that the children
were happy all day when they were
home with the mother. At the sound
of the fathers footsteps on the porch
they stated, the three little children
shrank back into other parts of the
house almost prostrated with fear. AL
though the oldest girl is but four years
old, she has learned to fear the re-
turn of the father, the witnesses de-
clare.
Felty and his wife were raised to-
gether on adjoining farms in Virginia.
Felty does not drink and has the repu-
tation of being quiet and Industrious
when at work. He provides we'll in
clothing and food for his family, it is
said. His unaccountable actions have
lead some to believe that he Is men
tally unbalanced. Mrs. Felty will sue
for a divorce as soon as possible and
will ask for the custody of the three
children. Felty expressed himself as
willing to support his family or pay
them alimony even though they will
no longer live with him. He paid the
fine.
