VOTE CAMPA|GNER
BACK FROM NEVADA
Miss Vernon Tells How Suf-
fragists Canvassed Every
Hamlet in State.

Jubilant over the suffragist victory
in Nevada, apd full of enthusiasm,
Miss Mabel Vernon, of the Congress
sional Union. returned to Washington
this morning from that State, where
during the past six months she has put
forth strenuous efforts for the suffragist
cause
1T was a long. hard fight, and at
times it seemed almost hopeless" she
said this morning. but We stuck to it,
and We won, despite the efforts of the
leading men in Reno to beat us And
you know when a person does what she
starts out to do, she can't help feeling
good about it, she added with q smile.
During the past summer We person
ally interviewed about every man and
woman in the State. going into every
hamlet and not leaving until all the
houses had been visited. One might
say the votes for woman suffrage were
literally hand picked in Nevada
Miss Vernon seems none the worse
for her eXertions. IN fact, she is pic
ture of health. having a rudy tan
from campaigning in the open. and de-
clares that she never felt better in her
life.
I'm ready to go anywhere that Miss
Paul wishes to send me and start right
to work again" she said, when asked
If she would remain in Washington and
rest up for few weeks. II tired, THIS
idea! Why / never felt more like work
in my life, and expect to remain here
only long enough! to get nay orders"

Daniels RetiCent About
Reported Tilt With Board

Secretary of the Navy Daniels re-
fused this morning to discuss reports
10 the effect that he and the general
board of the navy had fought over the
boards proposed recommendation TO
Congress asking for 1880 additional
men. 1t is understood. however, that
such a tilt occurred. and that a COM
promise was reached only after a heat
ed argument.
The increase in the enlisted ranks
urged by the general board represents
the number needed to make up the def
icit now existing between the number
Of men now in the navy and the num-
bcr necessary to properly man the
warships. The board is said to hav.
demanded that its recommendation for
this increase be included in the Sec
retarys annual report.
This Mr.. Daniels is said to have re-
fused TO agree to- with the threat on
his part that ne would not permit the
recommendation to be published II
was finally agreed TO exclude the
recommends tons from the SeCretarvs 8
report, but TO publish them separately.

CASCARETS FOR
COSTNE BOWELS,
HEADACHE, COLDS
Tonight! Clean Your Bowels
and Stop Headache, Colds,
Sour Stomach.
Set a lucent box now.


Turn the rascals out-the headache,
oiiiousness. Indigestion, the sick, sour
stomach and the colds-turn them out
tonight and keep them out with Cas-
carets.
Millions of men and women take a
Ca5caret now and then and never know
the misery caused by a lazy liver,
ctogged bowels, or an upset stomach.
Don't put in another day of distress.
Let Cascarets cleanse your stomach:
remove the sour, fermenting food
take the excess bile from your liver
and carry out all the constipated waste
matter and poison in the bowels. Then
you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight straightens you
out by morning. They work while
you sleep. A 10-cent box from any any
drug store means clear head, sweet
stomach and clean, healthy liver and
bowel action for months. Children love
Cascarets because they never grippe or
sIcken.-Adyt.

Fire Ssare Last
 Sunday Morning

The Fire Department was called out early Monday to answer to an alarm sounded from the fire bell in the Red Mems Hall. The fire was in the shack occupied by F. w. Stewart and his partner in back of the Chas. Shun Grocery Store. The fire had started from an un- pointed stove-pipe in the garret from which a spark had lodged in the under side of the roof. MT. Stewart was eating breakfast when someone yelled fire and on going out side discovered that it was his own home. The fire was extin- guished with little loss. The inac- curacy of the bell as an alarm was very apparent as there were few who heard 1t even though they were right close, and something should be done to make the bell more open as it is very muffled in the close tower where it now hangs which could possibly be opened more and thus do away with the muffled sound.
