Criticism Of Anti-Sufragists a
Liquor Advocates the Canse

The publication in a recent issue OF
the Commoner of an attack upon the
opponents of woman suffrage has
caused considerable comment among
senators and representatives from the
southern states. who, for the most
part, have been consistently opposed
to granting the ballot to women. 1t is
said that some Of these democratic
senators will read the riot act to Sec
retary Bryan, editor of the Commoner.
When he returns to Washington, be
cause of this published criticism. The
item which has caused the trouble
reads as follows:
The active opposition to woman suf-
farage is to be found in the brewery,
the distillery and the saloon, and when
this fact is known those who are as
sociated with the anti-suffra gists will
inquire the cause"
With the exception of two, the demo-
cratic senators from the south are on
record as opposing woman suffrage.
Several of these senators come from
dry states, and have opposed liuuor
traffic as strenuously as they have on
posed woman suffrage Some Of fhcs,.
senators, it is said. intend to call f1e
attention of the Senate to the article
iii the Commoner and demand a re-
traction or an apology.

CHRISTMAS SHIP NEAR
THE ENGLISH COAST
Wireless Says Jason Expects to
Reach Devonport Tomorrow and
Unload British Share.

Ths Christmas ship Jason, bearing a
huge cargo of gifts to the war wild
ows and war orphans of Europe, is
rapidly nearing the shores of Eng
land. According to wireless and cable
communications received today the
Jason is to reach Davenport, England,
tomorrow morning. two days earlier
than it was believed would be the
case.
Gable dispatches from London state
that preparations are being rushed to
insure the proper distribution of Eng
lands share of the Christmas ships
cargo. These gifts are to be taken
direct from the Jason to London, from
which point the distribution is TO be
made.
y reception committee, headed by
Earl Beauchamp, and including many
members of the British war office and
the local government board of London,
has been chosen to meet the Jason
and to extend to the Christmas ships
officers every possible courtesy.

tary Observers Noting Develop
ment in Europe.

In common with the military observ-
ers of every other nation, United States
Army officers are watching with Keen
est interest the artillery development
OF the warning nations OF Europe as
disclosed upon the battlefields of Bel
gium and France. Every news dispatch
that mentions the great German guns
is read closely and photographs are
studied with greatest care, but so far
nothing conclusive has been found to
confirm the report that the Germans
are placing their main reliance upon
forty-two centiuleter mobile howitzers.
American officers believe that the
Germans have accomplished the de-
struction of opposing forts with stand
sSrd eleven-inch towitZers and modern
high explosives which are virtually the
same for all nations. The key to Ger
man successes of this chara cter, they
say. lies in the thoroughness with
which the work is done and the accu-
racy of their shooting with eleven-inch
weapons

TRAVELETTE
BY NIKSAH.
Havana.

Most of the tourist travel to Europe
has been a summer travel, but there
has always been a small but highly
interesting minority, possessed of great
wealth, that has wintered on the other
side. The Riviera most attracted them,
although there were many who pre-
ferred Egypt.
This winter the tables at Monte Carlo
will be deserted. Nice will be con-
gregation of weeping women, and no
body knows what terrible things may
happen between the pyramids and
Shepherds Hotel.
Naturally, Palm Beach will expect to
get some of these people, but Palm
Beach is crowded in its intimacies and
certainly not varied in its entertain
ers of Havana are making prepara-
tions this year to be the winter capital
of all the gay Americas. For not only
our Yankees went to the Riviera, but
America also found their way there,
and this year those of them who can
get the money to travel, will be invited
to come to Havana.
The capital city of the Gem of the
Antilles has several qualifications for
entertaining such people. In the first
place. it has better hotels than can be
found in Cairo or in Nice, and in the
ingly higher. Havana is the cleanest
city of it's size in the world, and the
most sanitary. In its physical aspects
it is historically the most interesting
of all American cities. for 1t has re-
tanned it's medieval buildings while
erecting it's modern ones. In the winter

its streets are gay with life and color
and no visitor need be dull for mo-

An Electric Water Heater.

Ii YOU have no ll-the-year-round hot
water system in your house, and l. YOU
are nervous about the use of gas, your
problem apparently has been solved by
the latest novelty put out by the in
Yentors of electrical devices.
The new heater is a very simple at
tachment which connects with the water
faucet over a hand basin. and a so with
the electric lighting wires. 1t is made
OF nickel metal, and is about the size ard
shape of a one-quart thermos bottle.
Once installed, there is no longer any
difficulty about hot water.

Turret Forts Wrecked.

Photographs of the forts before Liege,
Namur, Antwerp and elsewhere in the
war zone show turret forts completely
wrecked by German fire. There is moth
ing to indicate, however, that the dam
age was not inflicted by eleven-inch or
even. smaller shells. ordnance experts
believe The enormous destructive
force of these shells has been well
known ever SINCE the fall of Port Ar
thur in the JapaneSe-RuSsian war.
The city was taken by the Japanese

once established behind nearby hills,
absolutely safe from the fire of the
tusslan guns, the howitzerS disposed

the same ease that the German guns
have battered to piecs the Belgian
forts.

In the pictures with the bore or breach
OF the weapon beside which they stand,

than the eleven-inch and in many in
stances even smaller.
Novel Feature Noted.
The most novel feature about these
weapons to military eyes is the sys-
tenn of transportation employed by
which the gun and its carriage are
divided on two trucks equipped with
trimmed wheels and special devices to
distribute the enormous weight over
as much road service as possible. The
whole train is hauled by a traction en-
gine propelled by steam or gasoline.
Undoubtedly, this has served to in
crease the mobility of the giant
weapons; but officers are not satisfied
that the necessity of carefully pre-
pairing the ground upon which the guns
stand when discharged has been done
away with. 1t is still q job for en-
Sineers to place these weapons. and
the long delay necessary to permit the
empiacement or siege weapons, while
little reduced. is still a factor in mill
tary operations.
The United States is not contem-
plating the construction of very large
siege guns because the roads of the
country are not suited to carry such
of the weapons would lie limited to the
immediate vicinity of a few of the
larger cities or to a highway here or
there that has been improved for a
long distance. In the event of invasion
it would be impossible to confine oper-
fense and the guns would be virtually
useless.

or her community, and there get So

seconded by the local board, who have
placed at our disposal many and COM
