Yesterday was busy one for the
delegates, the convention being called
to order at an early hour at the Con-
gregational church, and even then the

photographer, who had made arrange
ments to take big group picture of
the delegates, outside the church, was
unable to do SO at noon, owing to the
lateness of adjournment. The down
pour in the afternoon again upset the
plans of the picture man.
Reports of several committees show
ed satisfactory balance on hand, d
fair gain in membership in the past
year, and general activity all along
the line. The reports showed thai

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Worker an Opportunity to
Expound Her Couse.

That special form Of moral courage
which made ST. George a dragon hunter
and won the pennant for the Athletics,
echoed from the tanitor-disted forum OF
the North Capitol Savings Bank Hall,
at North Capitol and H streets yester'
day, when the Central Citizens Associ-
alton. defiant of militancy and unafraid
Of future vote, said in effect:
Let us have no suffragettes."
That isn't exactly what 1t said, but T.
NJ. Neale, who led the sentiment, op'
posed to hearing a suffragette speaker
expound her cause at an association
meeting, said the following words:
She may not do US any harm. but
We want TO hear something out Of which
We ges some good"
And there the subject was dropped,
except that one member suggested limit
ing the speaker to a half-hour which
caused another speaker to talk hostile
on the impossibility OF such a thing
when a suffragette got started. A vote
closed the issue, with a victory for the
