SYNOPSIS: All phases of life are
displayed in the presentation of this
play, and it is challenge to the
best that society can hope to attain
Yet the serious by no means eclipses
the romantic phase of the drama. The
Carpenters and Kingsleys are two
very rich families in New York and
the kingsleys have their heart set on
an Austrian Prince as a husband for
their daughter Alice, but she is heart
and soul in sympathy with the work
of Howard Carpenter, who is spend
ing his life and fortune for the uplift
and happiness of the unfortunate in
the alleys and novels of the city.
Through the malicious designs of
Mrs. Kingsley and Robert Woolsley,
all of Howard's efforts to win the
heart and hand of Alice Kingsley are
thwarted. He resigns to his fate and
leaves New York for Georgia where
ne intends to carry out his projects
in philanthrophy. When Alice learns
of the designs of her mother she
refuses to marry the prince and
hence the Kingsleys are humiliated
and Mr.. Kingsley has to pay 100000
.dImAges to the Prince.
SIS Robert Woolsley follows Howard
OoiPSuISi W IeOTSld anQ attempt
to kill him in order to inherit his
fortune, but his efforts are not sue
cessful. Howard is sped over
distance of fifty miles, in his car, to
Chattanooga for treatment. The Car
penters are wired and special sur
geons are sent from New York to
Chattanooga. Alice, hearing of the
affair, volunteers, in disguise, to 90
as an expert nurse and finally gives
her own blood to save the life of her
lover.
You will see from the cast of char
acters that the play is given by anna
teur talent, yet we believe that the
public will be pleased with the play.
1t consists of four acts and it will
take two hours to render it.
The receipts from this play will be
used for the enlargement of the pub
lie school library. The Union Con-
cert Band will add to the merriment
Of the evening by rendering appro-
pirate selections before the play and
between the acts.

ITS METHODS ATTACKED
In Statement. Representative Lenroot
Is Quoted as Fearing Exemplifca-
ton of English Furies.

A statement given out yesterday by the
Congressional committee of the National
American Woman Suffrage Association
threatens to widen the breach between
it and the Congressional Union.
The word militant is employed indi-
rectly in an attack on the latter organiza-
ton and its methods of reaching the
House Rules Committee, in particular
TO bring the Bristow-MondeH resolution
to vote at this session. These meth
ods, especially parades and other public
demonstrations are denounced as men,
aces to the cause of equal suffrage The
views Of Representative Lenroot, Of Wis
consin, champion of the cause which
concide with those of the Congressional
committee, are also given out by the
committee along with its own.
NJ. C.'s Getting Vexed.
Members Of Congress are becoming
impatient at what they consider the III
advised activities Of some Of the woman
suffrage advocates at the Capitol" saws
the committee. The feeling is shared
by the nOnmilitant suffragists who are
represented by the Congressional COM
mittee, the official aids Of the National
American Woman Suffrage Association in
Washington. and has grown more acute
since the visit Of the Congressional Union
early this week with a demand on mem
bers of the Rules Committee that a
meeting be called to pass a special rule
for the consideration of the suffrage
question Immediately.
Friends Of suffrage declare that their
cause is being delayed rather than ad-
vanced by such incidents. 1t is pointed
out that in the first place they invite
defeat, and in the second place, so many
members of Congress are away that no
representative action could be taken on
the matter in Congress at this time.
Representative Lenroot, of Wisconsin,
himself q well-known Republican and
suffragist advocate. stated that he be-
lieved the women were making a grave
mistake.
Repeated marching parades and Wis

iting members Of Congress every few
days by delegations OF suffragists accom-
plish nothing said Mr.. Lenroot.
But the extent to which it has been
carried, in my judgment, is hurtful TO
their cause rather than helpful. The
demonstrations in the city of Washing
ton, in my judgment, have no influence
upon the average member of Congress.
There are but two ways in which the
average member can be reached. One
through his intellect TO convince him
that the welfare OF the people will be
the ballot by women or at the very least
as much entitled TO the ballot as are men.
Occasional demonstrations are, in
my judgment. helpful in securing pub
licity, but they should be only for the
purpose OF attracting attention 10 the
cause and with the realization that the
demonstration itself accomplishes moth
ing else. Education must follow, and
demonstrations too often repeated are
likely to be regarded as being all there
is TO the movement.
AS one who has voted for woman
suffrage in my own State and has spoken
for it there, 1 very much regret to see
any policy inaugurated that may lead
to the adoption of the tactics of the
militant suffragists of England To
adopt such tactics in this country would
desroy, in my Judgment, all that has been
accomplished during the past ten years,
and SO long as it existed there would
be no progress whatever made along the
line of securing the ballot to women"
The Washington herald., 1914-07-19
Though Leaders May Differ
on How the Vote Is to Be
Won, They stand United
IN Determination to Get 1t.

Several important phases Of woman'i
suffrage are accentuated in recent utter
ances Of foremost leaders Of the cause.
The tenacity and perseverance Of thes'
workers is well typihed in pithy sen
tence by Mrs. Ellis Logan, OF Washing
ton, president Of the District Federation
Of women's Clubs, in which she says
The word impossible must not appear
in our Vocabulary" Such a spirit may b.
said to prevail in the suffrage rank
everywhere, and the effect is q genera
outpouring of energy toward one object
namely, the securing OF equal suffrage
for men and women.
One Of Mrs. Logan's latest platform ef'
forts, for example, deals with the socia
side OF the suffrage question, pointing out
its infiuence upon the families as q whole
their occupations, aInusements, and civic
duties.
Another Foremost Leader.
Another moIder Of public opinion in the
forefront of suffrage workers Is MIS-
Helen H. Gardener who deals with the
question of suffrage in the South as the
vice president OF the Southern States
woman's suffrage conference. The States
rights doctrine, as applied to woman S
suffrage is maintained in the South and
practically the whole Southern delega-
ton in both Houses Of Congress- Mrs.
Gardener in an interesting way points
out what she calls the unchivalrous IN
consistency OF Southern statesmen who
refuse their women the ballot while hold
ing themselves out as the flower of the
male chivalry OF the nation. She ap-
plauds President Wilson and others for
the stand they have taken for States
rights in this matter, and discusses clev-
erly whether suffrage should be granted
State by State or through a constitutional
amendment.
The Rules Committee OF the House,
which is held responsible by suffragtsts
for the present tie-up of the suffrage res
olution in the House, is fiayed by Miss
Lucy Burns, who is the generalissimo OF
the political forces of the Congressional
Union Miss Alice Paul. chairman of the
Congressional Union, leaves with all con-
fidence much of the important work TO
this able lieutenant. Miss Burns points
out the difficulty OF reaching the senti-
ment of the House on suffrage through
its important committee.
In an editorial by Miss Alice Paul.
President Wilson's power is discussed in
connecuon Win MS atutuue to"dru INC
Federal amendment proposition.
The Democratic party has again re-
fused to aid the suffrage cause" says
Miss Paul. No clearer illustration Of its
opposition could be afforded than the re-
fusal of the Democrats of the Rules Com
mittee to hold a meeting to consider the
rule providing time for the discussion OF
suffrage in the House. although a petition
requesting such a meeting had been
signed by the Progressive member and
all the Republican members in Washing
ton. and although a quorum OF the mem
bers was in the city. By this action the
Democrats have refused, for the time be-
ing at least, to allow the House to vote

up TO q few hundred years ago the
masses OF men were the pawns that
barons and kings used to play with.
Men were the ciphers then. used by
brute force and inherited rank to give
fictitious value to themselves. The masses
of men were no more considered by the
masters OF men In the questions OF state
than are the women now.
Those in power then, like some Of
them now. simply laughed at the mere
idea OF the average man having the
same legal rights and political opportuni-
ties as were held by the privileged class
OF men.

And there never was in all history so
well prepared a new electorate in the
matter Of education and intelligence as
would be the women OF America.
But We must remember that every
struggle that man has made for his own

tary rulers, has. In the long run. worked

"Wednesday OF each week Is set aside
for the consideration Of public bills which
are not privileged. They are called up
by a member Of the committee which has
reported the bill to the House. II would
seem to be possible to get the suffrage
amendment brought before the members
Of the House in this manner.
But 1t is not the intention OF the
House to allow unauthorized measures
even this slight opportunity. The Judi
ciary Committee. therefore, introduced in
the middle Of the session a huge. compre-
hensive measure to re-codify the laws
relating to the judiciary. Nobody has
any particular desire to see this bill
passed and the discussion is consuming
an unconscionable amount Of valuable
time; but it has the great merit from the
administration point OF view OF occupy
ing every calendar Wednesday at least
until the end OF this session. All other
measures are cold-shouldered out OF the
way.
One other Hope Is Left.
zone other hope is left a member who
sincerely desires TO forward a measure
in which he and his constituents are in
terested and which has not secured the
sanction Of the administration. He can
move TO suspend the rules.
"On the first and third Monday, we
read in the Rules Of the House. motions
to suspend the rules are privileged; on
the first Monday. for members bills, and
on the third Monday, for committee bills.
Suffragists might back a motion to sus-
pend the rule on the third Monday OF
any month.
The first practical difficulty of ac-
compIishing this is the necessity Of secur-
ing the promise Of the Speaker that he
Wi her uFh haa
motion to make. The Speaker habitually
refuses to recognize any member who has
not informed him beforehand Of the na-
ture Of his motion: and he undoubtedly
would be greatly disinclined to recognize
a member after he knows that it is his
intention to interfere with the business
Of the administration Of which the Speak
er is one Of the instruments.
We will grant. however. that the
Speaker is willing TO make this unusual
concession. The motion must then be
seconded by a majority vote of the House
and passed by a two-thirds vote. On tbs
motion to second. no debate is permitted
and no call for the yeas and nays al
lowed. In other words. the vote on the
motion to second is unrecorded and the
attempt 10 suspend the rules in the in
terest OF the suffrage amendment can be
smothered without bringing odium on a
single member Of the House.
The Rules Committee. therefore. re-
mains the only channel for action In
the House IL Is almost omnipotent. IL
can report a measure at any time, and
demand action upon It at any time: the
measures reported by the Rules Commit
tee are privileged until they are disposed
Of. The business Of the Rules Committee
Is superseded only by conference reports.
so our only path to action in the
House lies through the Rules Committee.
Leaders in the House have been at pains
to block other avenues OF advance. They
only leave the Rules Committee with the
clearer duty Of taking action on the suf-
fraEe rule with all possible speed
