The box was delivered in Savannah

There was no irregularity. The

Funny" remarked the agent,
That's a mighty big box for such a
little money"
The bills of lading for the big
amount had been taken together with
the money. Therefore the express Of
ficials in Savannah were astounded
when the Savannah Bank and Trust
Company sent for its $4,000 A tele-
gram corroborated the announcement
by the bank that the money should
have been in the box.
The alarm was given. In a few
hours every special agent OF the two
express companies between New York
and Savannah was at work. j. b.
Hockaday, general manager of the
Southern Express Company went
from Atlanta TO Savannah with Su-
perintendent Harry Scott of the
Pinkertons. The detectives are still
working, although every resource at
command of their ingenuity has been
exhausted.
The search has even included travel
along every foot of the right of way,
a look into every bush and over every
embankment. Nothing has been left
untried, and the theft has cost the
express companies, including the pay
ment of the amount to the banks,
more than 100000.

AMERICAN WIFE
.TOFIGHT TOLAST.
COURT FOR VOTE
Denied Franchise by California
Courts, Mrs. Gordon Carries
Battle to Washington.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct 11.-Right
up to the highest court in the land s
to go the appeal of Mrs. Ethel Coope
Gordon, wife of Mackenzie Gordon, an
Englishman. that she be permitted
her inalienable rights of citizenship
as bestowed upon her by the male
electors Of California.
The California Supreme Court de-
cided against Mrs. Gordon when she
brought suit to compel Registrar ze-
mansky TO register her as an Ameri-
can citizen.
1T is not merely my own citizen
ship that is involved" said Mrs. Cor
don. There are 100000 women in
the equal suffrage States, and many
of these are doubtless in the same
predicament as myself | think II is
matter which should be sifted thor
oughly and settled
ut is" she said, with laugh, just
another fight for suffrage that / AN
making alone"
So in the Gordon household there
is Just one American citizen, Macken-
zie Gordon. Jr.. 5 months old. whose
ballot is worrying him not at all.
MY mother" said Mrs Gordon
would have the same standing | have
were IL not IOT Ine IhCl Indl my Ia =
ther is dead She is an American and
he was an Englishman. Because she
is a widow she votes. while I, be-
cause my Scotch husband is alive, can
have no voice in my country's af-
fairs
"They will not let me be natural
ized, either. ] don't want to get the
ballot through my husbands natural
cation. He will do 1t for me. but
many foreign husbands would not dc
II for their wives. So I think II is a
matter which should be settled by an
act of Congress II II can not be ar
ranged any other way"
As a final shot at Interpreting ctti-
zenship, Mrs. Gordon declared:
IF they give us equal rights really
II should mean that my husband by
marrying me became an American
citizen. II a foreign woman marrles
an American man she can vote al
once Why should not the same ap-
ply to a foreign man."

MARTINEZ. CAL. Oct. 11-If Judge
E. H. Ware had taken. on a recent
trip to San Francisco, his oysters in
a stew instead of fred, he would be
richer to-day by small fortune. on
biting into one of his fried oysters
the judge encountered something
hard. Investigation disclosed a pearl
which he tucked away in his vest
pocket.
Back again in Martinez, Judge
Ware showed his pearl to Under
Sheriff William Veale, who offered to
submit it TO a San Francisco jew
eler for valuation. When the San
Francisco expert looked at the jewel
he said:
If your friend had ordered an oys-
ter stew instead of a fry this thing
would be worth $4,000. 1t is perfect
in form and just matches one we're
trying to find a mate for. But the
frying has completely ruined It,"

This question was solved by JUS
tice Of the Peace Shoemaker at Lyn-

loose and that where they Sought a
roosting place that should be their
rightful home. Accordingly the court
and the two litigants went TO a near

the rooSting- time, and. sure enough,
as fast as they could wabble, the hens
sought hole in the Hoover barn
yard fence, where they had been wont
to go and come, and in a few seconds
were perched high among the limbs
Of the Hoover trees.
Crane. in the face of the conclusive
evidence, changed his plea, and was

 Speaks BefOye
 4 BlYd Audience
Especial to The Republican,


 BOSTON, Oct 29.-Charles Sumner Bird dared Edward P Barry, the democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, yesterday afternoon in Post office Square to carry back word to David I. Walsh that there were forty odd pledge breakers in the demo- cratic party.
 Tn the presence of MT. Barry" said the Progressive candidate for governor, T hereby call MT. Walsh's attention to the fact that he hasn't yet repu- diated the pledge breakers who are candidates on his party. Let him come out like man with a spine and say what he thinks of the men who broke their pledges"
 It was the first day in which Sum ner Bird has taken part in the cam paign, and it was wholly impromptu. Barry, whose office is located in Postoffice Square, had gone to the Progressive rally to get the benefit of a little Progressive doctrine, ac- cording to his own confession. He wanted to hear Charles Sumner Bird While the two men were chatting pleasantly, Charles Henry Davis turned to Barry and said: Wouldn't you ike to speak?'
 "Oh, mo-" replied the democratic candidate for lieutenant governor; this is your event"
 Get right up." said Admiral Davis. cordially; tell your side of the case and then we'll tell ours"
 T do not feel I want to intrude on the Progressive party's program he said, but I have been offered the platform in the interest of the com monwealth and in the interest of good government, and I am very glad to avail every citizen that votes for me as lieutenant governor to vote also for MT. Walsh and MT Boynton and the entire democratic ticket. I speak in all sincerity, and not in a per Sonal way. I believe the candidate for the Progressive party is an honest, earnest man, and that his candidacy is going to mean good for the com monWealth. We have been paying tribute to learned and distinguished sage of Walpool in this campaign, but I believe also that every plank in the platform which he represents was at one time or another good sound demo- cratic doctrine, and the best interest of the commonwealth will be served by having Lieutenant Governor David l. Walsh elected governor. We ad- mire MT. Bird for his political sagac- ity and ability, and as a result of what he is trying to do. It is prob able that anna lgamation will bring a result in having MT. Bird the repub- lican nominee next year.
