Linwood will be the scene of battle,
and both sides are willing to wager
their last nickel that they will come
out in front. A program of races and
other sports will be formulated. The

MOUNTED POLICE
ROUT SUfFRACE7S
Mrs. Pankhurst Retaken Only
After Fist Fight-20
Others Arrested.

London, July 2S.-Sylvia Pankhurst,
the militant suffraget, who was out on
license under the "cat and mouse law"
was the leader of suffraget demon
stration yesterday which surpassed all
previous Sunday afternoon affairs of
the sort. During the rioting which fol-
lowed Miss Pankhurst was rearrested
and taken to Holloway Jail.
The meeting, held in Trafalgar
square by the Mems Federation for
Woman's Suffrage and the east end
branch of the Women's Social and Po-
litiCal union had been announced in ad-
vance, and this fact, and also a rumor
that a charge upon Premier AsQuith' S
residence with resolutions was
planned, brought enormous crowds
into the square.

The simpler the methods of cook
ing and serving vegetables, the bet
ter. If treated in this manner, a well
selected, properly grown and we'll cook
ed vegetable will be most palatable
and readily digestible.
Most of the so-called digestive dis
turbances and which are frequently
serious, are readily traced to badly
cooked vegetables with all nourish-
ment drained away. The back to
nature" people, who are cultivating
the little garden, should remember
that turnips, onions, radishes, lettuce,
beets and carrots for summer and fall
use should be of the quick growing
kind and not allowed to grow to great
size for the best flavor.
Sow them frequently during the sea-
son, land the more rapidly they grow
the more tender they will be-" say
every two weeks, then the fresh ten
der ones may be in constant use and
the older ones left to mature so they
will keep well when stored for win
ter use.
In preparing the summer vegetables
for the table the careful, economical
housekeeper will remove all unedible
portions and will see that the total
amount of refuse is as small as is
consistent with good quality.
AVOIDING WASTE.
The pairing of potatoes and other
vegetables is an economy which it is
worth while to practice and an easy
way of decreasing useless loss. Then
lose as little as possible in cooking
for instance. potato boiled with the
skins on, has a loss of food value
which is LOO trifling to mention, but
when peeled and soaked for severa
hours and boiled, the loss is about
80 per cent of heterogeneous materia
and 40 per cent of the mineral mat
Ter. Peeled and placed at once II
water to boil the loss is only abou
half as great. Every housekeepeI
should know these things and follow
them for the health of herself anC
family.
There are new vegetables constant
ly coming into the market each day
so we have only to choose the one
which combine and fit with othe

WADES To DEATH
IN Green RIVER
Henry Foster, 17-Year- Old
Cambridge Youth, Drowned
While on Outing.

Henry Foster, a 17-year-old Cam
bridge lad, was the victim of drown
ing in Green river, northwest of Gen
eseo, Sunday. With party of others
he had gone to the river for an out
ing. While wading about in the water
he stepped into a deep hole and, be-
ing unable to swim, he sank to his
death.
The accident happened about noon
and the body was not recovered till
4:30 in the afternoon. Then it was
taken to Zimmerman's undertaking
rooms in Geneseo, where an inquest
was held. The verdict was accidental
drowning. Later the remains were
taken to Cambridge.

bridge high school and next year he
would have graduated. He made his

PRENupTIAL PARTY.

THE YOUNG WOMEN EMPLOYED
by the Bennett Organ company carried
out a very pleasant prenuptial party
on Miss Grace Dye, a co-worker whose
marriage to Charles Mayer of Louis
vile, Ky, is an event of this week.
The affair took the form of a linen
shower and the honoree was taken
quite unawares at her home 43O1 Fifth
avenue Saturday evening when the
company went TO her home unan-
nounced. The evening passed merrily
with music and games Of various kinds
and in a contest the first prize was
won by Miss Grace Dye, the second
by Miss Dora Hoberg and the consola-
ton by Miss Janette Barchman. The
prospective bride was showered with
many lovely gifts of linen and she
was also given a set of sterling silver
spoons. The company had taken with
them refreshments and these we're
served during the evening.

he the watchword, and but for vigor-
Gus work by the modified police, who
arrested Miss Pankhurst and twenty
men and women supporters, there
would have been window smashing
and perhaps worse damage at the
pFemier's house. The procession of
men and women marched from White
chapel to Trafalgar square, with con-
stantly growing crowds following.
It entered the square with the band
playing the "Marseillaise" and planted
banners on the plinth of the Nelson
column Miss Pankhurst made dra-
matte appearance from among the
crowd and was dragged to the plinth
amid great cheering. When the dem
onstration had subsidized she made an
impassioned speech.
1.-The time for speaking is over" she
said. Deeds, not words, are wanted.
Let us all go to Downing street"
She concluded by saying she was
going to defy the authorities and car
ry resolutions to the premier's resi-
dence herself.
A roar of approval greeted this an
nouncement, and in an instant Miss
Pankhurst, with bundle of papers in
her hand, was swept off the plinth
by the mob and the square was mass
Of excited and struggling people.
The huge crowd, Miss Pankhurst
leading it then moved down Whitehall
toward Downing street. A platon OF
police which had come at double-quick
from Scotland Yard, formed Gordon
across the road, which was effectively
aided by a blockade of wheeled con,
veyances.
Mounted police then rode into the
crowd, scattering it and driving the
people down various streets, while of
ficers in plain clothes got possession
of Miss Pankhurst after a fist fight
with her body-guard of East End
youths.
The mounted men then cleared a
way for the prisoner to a cab. Miss
Pankhurst was driven to Holloway
Jail to serve the remainder of her sen
tence or to stay until she is again re
leased through hunger strike.
In the station house she struggled
desperately with the officers ant
smashed a window with a ruler which
is used to measure prisoners.
After Miss Pankhurst had been TAX
en- into custody two women were ar
rested for throwing stones at Mr.
Asquith's windows.

Annual Socialistic Gathering Is
Held at Suburban Island

Noted Author from Chicago Discusses
"Tne Science of Society,"
Ball Game.

An enormous crowd numbering over
1000 persons gathered at Suburban
island yesterday to attend the second
annual picnic given by the socialist
party of the tri-cities. Arthur Morrow
Lewis of Chicago, author Of the book,
Sociology" was the speaker of the
day. and his address on THE Science
of Society,"" was enjoyed thoroughly
by those who were fortunate enough
to get within hearing distance of his
voice.
After the lecture, which took place
at O'Clock the employees of the Iowa
Steam laundry of Davenport and the
workmen of the Silvis shops engaged
in nine-inning ball game, which went
to the launderers by score of IL to 6
The game was holly contested, and il
is estimated that fully 1000 persons
witnessed the battle.
LEWIS SPEAKS.
Mr.. Lewis stated that the average
American citizen of today paid little
or no attention to social equality, and
instead of following the statement that
all men were equal, the people were
slaves to custom. He stated thai
there was no science of social relations
and that such science could not ex
list until the entire community haC
been better educated. The speaker i:
well known in socialistic circles ant
each winter gives a series of lectures
on socialism at the Garrick theatre a
Chicago.
