 a ..s. Mrs. Mitchell Besieged.
 Mrs. Mitchell was rather embarrassed at the sudden prominence into which she was thrust. Half n dozen young women reporters called her by phone or sent notes to her besieging her for an interview on all sorts of things where she got her gowns. what she liked to eat. what sort of an automo- bile she preferred and whether or nor she believed in votes for women. Her guests chaffed her little.
 There was no demonstration of any sort in front of the apartment house where the mayor elect lives. When Mir. Mitchell left the house with Mir Malone. Mir. Bell. MT.
