Won Him to Suffrage
Miss Vernon Talks Until Big
Policeman Signed the Roll
Tried to Hush Her.

Washington. July 31.-How an At
lantic City policeman who tried to
break UP a suffrage meeting was con-
verified to the cause ana induced to
sign a petition asking the senate to
pass a suffrage constitutional amend
ment was recited in a letter received
at suffrage headquarters yesterday
from Miss Mabel Vernon. who is con-
Quoting "votes for women" meetings
along the Boardwalk.
Miss Vernon was mounted on q roll
Ter chair earnestly exhorting a. large
audience Of men and women on the
suffrage question when q big police
man pushed his way to her side, ac-
cording to the letter.
I'VE never have any kind OF meet
ings on the Boardwalk here. and there
fore you will have to stop" he told
the suffragist.
"But I have a permit from Mayor
Riddle, and I will not STOP" Miss YER
non replied.
".But the policeman told her that If
any one in the crowd wanted her to
stop he would be obliged. to. disregard
the permit. He asked her IL any one
objected to her speaking. A small
"weazened" man said he objected. and
the policeman told her to stop. But
she appealed to the crowd, and they
shouted for her to go IN in such a
manner that the policeman and the
small man beat a hasty retreat
"But !. followed the policeman and
got him to sign my petition" added

CIRCUS TO AGAIN
SEEK ENTRANCE
Barnurn & Bailey Will To-
night Make Another Bid
For Grand Forks License

1t is expected that there will be an
unusually interesting session of the
Grand Forks city council this evening
as there are three advance members
of the Barnum & Bailey circus in
town and they are going to make
another try to get a license to show
here next Saturday. The manage
ment of the circus has tried severa!
times to secure permission to show
on this side of the river, but was
turned down and secured the license
in East Grand Forks. Saturday will
he the last day Of the North Dakota
that 1t would do a great deal of harm
to have the show here on that day.
The directors of the association say
that the fair is being given for a
worthy purpose and does much good
for both Grand Forks and the state
and should be supported by every
loyal citizen. The circus takes a lot
of money put of the own but IT
does not leave much here. the direc-
tors claim. and for that reason should
not be permitted to come in and
East Grand Forks wish to allow Bar
mum & Bailey to show there that is
another matter but it would certainly
be a shame to let the circus man.
agement get-a license after being re-
fused one several times before. The
members of the city council are d.
vided on the proposition, but so far
the majority has refused to listen to
the show people. There will un-
doubtedly be a large number of Grand
Forks people at the council meeting
being awaited with a great deal of
interest.

COUNTY CIRCUS
AT UNIVERSITY
Representatives From Each
County Participated in a
Unique Affair.

The most enjoyable party Of the
summer school session was given last
Saturday evening in the gymnasium at
the state university and it was large
ly attended by students. The affair was
arranged by the teachers and students
from the different counties attending
the school and the event was highly
successful. The whole program was
made up Of comical numbers and all
present had the best kind Of a laugh.
The people from each county tried to
Guido all the others in makeup and it
is hard to tell who did the best work.
The "takeoffs" on the members of the
faculty and the students were all very
clever. This party is an annual event
at the summer school. but this year
1t was better than ever before accord
ing to many who have been present at
former ones.
All Of the students united in giving
a country circus exposition and this
was n Of the biggest hits Of the
evening. The side shows, bankers and
pink lemonade were all to be found
and it was a good exhibition through
out. Another very excellent feature Of
the program Saturday evening was the
solo work by Miss Zulla Rowe of Wes-
ley college. Miss Linnel also gave
some splendid readings.

Aroused by infiammatory articles in

their class rooms and marched to the
palace with. the intention of assuring
President Huerta of their patriotism
and later to parade the streets in
manifestation of their feelings toward
the United States. Some of the stu

CAPTAIN AND CREW
HAVE NARROW ESCAPE

PORTLAND, Ore, July 12.-Escap-
ing death by narrow margin when
the tug Charles NJ. Greiner had her
pilot house taken off and her cabin
damaged by an overturned sand barge
Captain ]. d. Kropp and the crew of
the tug saved their lives by leaping
off the imperiled craft Captain
Kropp jumped into the river and the
crew OF four men escaped to derrick
barge in tow of the Greiner.
The accident to the Grelner, say
officials of the Portland Tug and
Barge company. owners of the craft
was due to the sand barge being over
loaded, cruising 1t to turn turtle. The
tug made her way up to the COM
pany's dock at the foot of Davis street
under her own steam but with her
cabin entirely gone. She will prob
ably have to remain at one of the To-
cal shipyards for several weeks.
According to the report of the acci-
