ARMY DIVIDED
OVER OUTRAGE

WILMINGTON, Feb. 20.-Following
a luncheon at the Deer Park hotel to-
day the Suffragette army started for
Elkton, Md.
A wide difference of opinion in the
ranks of the mixers manifested itself
yesterday when they heard of the
blowing up of Lloyd-George's home.
Mrs. Elizabeth Freeman, who served
an apprenticeship for the cause in
England, where she was twice arrest
ed, declared that nothing could have
been finer" Miss Morgan of New
York, also expressed sympathy with
the English view, but Miss Elizabeth
Aldrich, who is of Quaker ancestry,
said:
81 would rather have heard that
women never would have a vote than
to have heard of the perpetration of
a crime like that"
The suffrage demonstrators are
paying their way by selling buttons
and postcards, and Miss Freeman's
little wagon, covered with streamers
and "votes for women" placards, was
in evidence throughout the business
sections of the city.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
WOULD SAVE $4,000

Members of the committee engaged
in soliciting funds for the chamber OF
commerce yesterday, complain that a
majority of the business men on whom
they called were not sufficiently
informed in regard to either the plans
or the purposes of the chamber of
commerce, and the committee was
obliged to spend considerable time in
several places explaining matters
which have been repeatedly explained,
heretofore, both in the meetings of the
organization and through the columns
Of the Star-Mirror.
There was about $4,000 raised in
Moscow last year by popular subscrip-
tions. 1t was raised at various times
and for various purposes. Whenever
any meritorious proposition bobbed up,
with an appeal for financial assistance,
new soliciting committee was i'm
mediately appointed and started out
with a new subscription list. The
number and frequency of these de-
mands upon the generosity of our peo-
pie, became sorely annoying to the So
licitors, the solicited, the beneficiary
and to all parties concerned
1t Is the purpose of the chamber of
commerce, under its reorganization to
prevent a recurrence of this condi-
tion, and in addition to the dollar a

RAGING INVADES

in Mayfair or East End, ragtime romps
are seen in every ballroom.
Where the press left off the churches
took up the alarm and have done all
that they could to stem the wave of
popularity for the "one-step" whirls
and glides; but, amusingly enough,
while there is a general denunciation
that the character of such dances is
horribly un-English, great flocks of
English misses are taking to them
like ducks to water
1t is everywhere evident that Amer
lean ragtime dances have given a
tremendous impetus to dances and
dancing in this country.
Men who hitherto had scorned to
appear on ballroom floors, have con-
temptuously and resolutely stood off
from the possible indictment of be-
ing known as dancing men," and girls
who formerly eschewed the waltzes
and two-steps, have tossed aside their
like snowflakes and are,
by the thousands, taking lessons in
order that they may enjoy the turkey
trot and its kindred in rhythmic genu-

month membership dues, the solicit
ing committee is asking for an addi-
tional subscription of from two to ten
dollars per month, from each person,
fund which is to be used to meet the
necessities of worthy enterprises re-
quiring financial aid, thereby avoiding
the necessity of taking up a special
subscription.
Instead of attempting to raise $10,-
600 by circulating a multitude of sub
scriptions, it is proposed to raise
$4,000 by one subscription and make
the $4,000 reach as far under intelligent
and methodical disposal as the $10,-
did last year. The $4,000 which it is
proposed to raise, has been apportion-
ed, so much to each of our citizens in
proportion to the amount he is able
to pay. Every one should understand
this and understand also that he is
getting valuable service in immunity
from the multiplicity of otherwise
possible subscription lists. The cit
izen who refuses to subscribe his just
apportionment. gets the benefit, just
the same but in failing to meet his
just share of the expense, he is shirk-
ing an obvious duty and doubling tie
burden on his more public spirited
neighbor.

North Doesn't Want Huerta.

Ell PASO, Tex, Feb. 20.-Northern
Mexico awaited today a settlement
| of the national dilemma. General
Antonio Rabago, commander of the
northern military zone, who was no
tilted Of General Huerta's claim to
the presidency, remains neutral. He
ordered his officers merely to keep
order. Governor Abraham Gonzales
of Chihuahua state is reported to
have resigned. He was one of the
organizers of the Madero revolution.
At Chihuahua city, the state cap
ital, and at Juarez the situation
was threatening. The volunteer
troops appear displeased with Huerta
as provisional president and openly
threaten to join the. rebels. At Ju-
arez an attempt failed to disarm the
volunteers. Throughout the north
the irregular troops, officered by many
ex-insurrecto chiefs who assisted in
the Madero revolution, nearly equal
in force the regulars. Should these
join the rebels the regulars would be
outnumbered.

LONDON, Feb. 20.-With pulpit and
press bitterly denouncing the snug
Cling, sinuous, racketty American one
step dances, there, nevertheless, has
been fixed for April 3 at the Savoy ho-
tel an "all ragtime" affair, a program
to include all the extravagances Of
the turkey trot, bunny hug, tango,
chicken-flip, Texas Tommy and the
crocodile clutch.
1t is the first dance of it's kind to
be held in England. The ragtime fever
is so intense it is hoped to secure the
presence and patronage of society
leaders for the function, where expon-
ents of the most advanced styles of
ragtime contortion dances are to per-
form.
Meantime the columns of the agony
are ringing with letters of
denunciation against the invasion. The
dances are called barbarous, ungrace-
full and rankly indecent The declara-
ton has been made that no decent girl
would degrade herself by initiating the
ragtime movements if she knew what
they really meant Presumably they
are in blissful ignorance for, whether

PEASANTS ARE OWNERS

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 2O.-The
peasants who worked the estate at
Leo Tolstoi are now owners of a
greater part of the land they formerly
titled as paid laborers. This transfer
is carrying out of Tolstoi's convic-
tion that the ownership of large areas
of land by one individual was wrong in
principle, and the project to convey
this property to the Tolstoi peasants
has just been put through by the exec
utors of the estate

Texas Demands Protection.

IeXaS UemanOS frOtect10n.
AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 2O.-Governol
Cloquitt of Texas, sent a telegram
today to United States Senator Cul-
berson in which he asserted that "the
present federal policy toward this
state was an outrage" and urged that
efforts be made to have additional
United States troops assigned to pa
troll duty along the Mexican-T Texas
border.
"If I am compelled to take the sit
uation in hand, I will do so vigor-
ously," said the governor in his tele-
gram. Definite action should be
taken by the federal government and
protection given by garrisons of
troops or the government should ad-
wise us that nothing will be done
and let us look out for ourselves. We
will not hesitate to protect our peo-
pie if we can be advised that the fed
eral government will not do So"
Governor Colquitt advised Senator
Culberson that the situation along the
border has been growing worse daily.
From all along the Rio Grande, the
governor declares, frantic appeals
have been made to him for protec-
tion.

WHY FRENCH MOTHERS
MUST WATCH DAUGHTERS

PARIS, Feb. 20.-In lecture be-
fore the Franco-American committee
Baron d'Estournelles de Constant gave
a friendly talk on American remin-
iscences. He said, although he was
not feminist when he went to the
United States, he was converted at
San Francisco against his will. At
that place, where he was asked to
speak at woman's meeting, the chair
woman remarked that he was a
Frenchman and came from country
where a mother does not allow her
daughter to go out alone.
The baron replied that the French
mother was right; the daughters could
not be allowed on the boulevards on

Converted Into Nunnery.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 20.-The
story of Iliodor, the mad monk" of
Tsartizin, who, after defying the bish-
ops, the holy synod, the police, and all
other authorities, has been finally de-
frocked and sent back to his home
villags as an ordinary layman, passes
into its last chapter with the CONVEX
sion of the monastery at Tsaritizin,
the scene Of his exploits, into a nun
merry. The monks, his adherents, have
been scattered among the various
other mDnasteries of Russia. The
nuns arriving in Tsaritzin to take
over the buildings, have been met by
such abuse and threats by thousands
of Tliodor's followers, that the con-
vent is guarded by the police.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1913-02-20

I account of the questionable characters
to be found there, but these were from
all other countries except France. He
found that the struggle against al
cohol was the work of women, and this
seems to have aided in his conversion
to feminism.
The baron said American cooking,
with occasional exceptions, is excel
lent. Even aboard the trains he was
well fed. He picked out for special
praise baked apples, which he had for
merly imagined were purely French
product Oatmeal and fresh cream, he
said, could be found anywhere, and
they were vastly superior to what is
found even in the best French restaur-
ants.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Feb. 20.-A

lapse from the straight path when the
claim of 1895 for the transportation

Francisco Tad, to the Whittier reform
atory was allowed.
Young Klegman pleaded for a
chance to be trusted" by the officers
to make the trip to Whittier alone
He arrived at the institution two days
later unescorted, thereby saving $40
to the state, which it usually costs for
the per diem and carfare of an accom-
deputy sheriff.

Hundreds of beautiful homes are

Scores of splendid public buildings
