Mrs. Josephine ST. Germain stead
man is a trife less than five feet
high. She has large blue eyes and
the softest voice and her greatest
pride is her 3-year-old baby; but. a
member of the Woman's Social and
Political Union, with a hammer con-
cealed In her muff, this little bit of
a lady was one of those who put the
sufffragette on the worlds map by
means of violence.
"Why?' she asked.
Because we tried every other
means first-trled, not for a day, or
a week, or month, but for years.
We sent petitions with thousands of
names; we made speeches by the
thousand to great crowds; we ar
ranged professions to show our
strength-one was seven miles long
and represented every corner of the
kingdom; we sent Populations. COM
posed of members from New Zealand
and Australia, men who could testi-
fly that women did not abuse their
new power. 1t did no good.
1--WE We're beating with Our bare
hands on a granite wall.
1.-THE first window smashing ever
done by suffragettes was done in
prison as n protest against injustice.
We demanded to be considered po-
litical prisoners. We were thrown
among low men and women, people
of the street. Only Mrs. Pankhurst
and Mrs Pethick- Lawrence were
considered political prisoners and
treated as such; but they declined TO
be shown unjust preference. The
first windows were broken in jail as
q protest against brutal treatment.
1T was only when all else failed
that we tried the methods English
men have tried under the very same
circumstances when men wanted the
franchise. We have not gone to the
same length--yet. We have been
more patient.
ut is not we women: 1t is the gov
eminent that is guilty Of these Of
lenses. We tried peaceable, legal
means, They from the first tried il
legal means in their opposition.

PATERSON STRIKE
Attempt Made to Picket Mills.
Thwart Alleged Plot to

Especial to the Newark star. !

PATTERSON. April As the re-
suit of following out the counsel of
their leaders at a large mass meeting
held at Haledon yesterday seventy
eight strikers were arrested By the
Paterson police this morning and
locked up on u technical charge of
lettering. The men i'll large groups
eongregated around the mills in Full
ton street carly this morning, and
hen told to move on by the police
refused to do so, with the result that
the large number of arrests were
made.
When arraigned later before Re-
corder Carroll the men were released,
as were several others who had pre-
viously been arrested on a charge Of
unlawful assemblage. In all pa pris-
oners were liberated. Recorder Car
rolls decision in the matter was in
keeping with the decision of Justice
Mnturn on Saturday in liberating
William D. Haywood and Adolph
Lessig. the strike leaders who We're
arraigned on a like charge.
Special stress was laid by the strike
/ leaders yesterday on the importance
of picketing, and almost every mill
in the city was surrounded. The po-
| lice, however, took extra precautions
to guard those who are working and
gave the strikers to understand that
| they meant business.
The manufacturers deny the report
that strike breakers are to be i'm
| ported4 No such plan has been
thought of, they declare, and there
will be no move made to fill the places
of the local workmen with men from
out of town, they say.
! Several of the ministers in the
local churches preached sermons last
night on the strike situation, and
many of them deplored the attitude
of the agitators whom they consider
responsible for all the trouble.
Frank Fondat, of 60 East Twelfth
street. was sent to jail FOR thirty
days yesterday following an alleged
plot to blow up the house of Victor
Smith. Of 50 East Fourteenth street.

marry man who says he will die of

Don't marry a man in the hope of
reforming him. When he says he will

may not know it.
Don't marry a man who IS aVoW-
edly ungodly Let him find someone
else as goddess as himself.
Don't marry a man until you know
who he Is and where he comes from.
One will not engage a clerk or a

man without knowing the least thing
about his antecedents.
Don't marry a man you know to be
