WoMAN'S CHIEF WORK IS
 THAT OF HOME MAKER.
Declaration of New President of
 Boucher College.

Baltimore, Feb. s-In his inaugural address today pr. William Wesley Guth, the new president of Boucher collage, declared that woman's chief work Is to be that of home maker. and that in all the training for women by the schools the duty of motherhood must be carried out. He said in part:
 While our higher institutions or learning should grant to woman the privilege of graduate and technical courses with the view to business or professional life, on the ground that ali women cannot or will not marry. it would be a mistaking of the real plr- pose of her higher education If she should be trained away from. rather than toward, the expectancy of mar riage and motherhood.
 T would have no word to say con- corning woman's rights if her rights involve nothing more than the ballot Personally, I have never found any reason why woman should not vote.
 There is no reason why d woman who knows something about business and public affairs, and is interested in social betterment, cannot be levable and gracious and sweet, or, above all, q good mother"

Washington, b-9.-Now that Gen. eral zamor has been elected president of Haiti, state department officials are closely observing developments in the island republic with view to deter mining how stable a government has been erected. AS far as officials have been informed, all the erstwhile presi- dential candidates have accorded ale glance to President zabor, with the possible exception of former Senator Davilmar Theodore, who, since his de- feat at the hands of Zanor, has pro- claimed himself at the head of a pro- visional government in Cape Haitien.
 It is not known here just how for Knidable a following Theodore has. but it is realized that he may make things very uncomfortable for the new gov ernment in Port au Prince.

sUFFRAGETTES AGAIN
 VISITED BY BISHOPS.
Latter Fails To Discover III effects
 From ForcibIe Feeding.

London. Feb. 9-Another surprise visit to Holloway Jail to investigate the conditions under which two militant suffragettes, Miss Kitty Marion and Miss Phyllis Brady. are incarcerated there, was made today by the Bishop of London.
 The bishop in his report says Miss Marion feels much aggrieved at being forcibly fed instead of being released under the "cat and mouse" act. As a protest against her continued inn prisonment, the bishop says, she all ways gave four or five shouts or screams when subjected to the opera ton, but she did not look ill as a re- suit.
 Miss Brady told the bishop she hated forcible feeding, but that it did not make her sick. She thought, how ever, it gave her indigestion.
 Both women refused to undertake to refrain from militancy in case they were released.
 T cannot conclude" writes the bishop, without telling you that in my opinion you are pursuing a wrong pol icy if you wish to win educated and thinking men and women to your cause"
