MRS. GEORGE TO SPEAK
 AGAINST WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

The announcement of the coming Of Mrs. A. J. George to speak in op- position to woman suffrage. which event will take place in the town hall next Tuesday evening. has aroused a great deal of interest locally on &C., count of the prominence of the speak CT and her reputation as tue Tore most exponent of the movement in opposition to woman suffrage Mrs George is acknowledged even by those opposed to her as a brilliant and foreeful speaker and her work against woman suffrage, both through her per- sonal influence and her speeches. has made her oneaof the most prominent leaders on her side of the question
 In a recent speech Mrs. George said: HThe question we must answer is: Shall woman contribute her offering to society in the identical way that man contributes his oneF1ng-that IS, through government? There are those who believe that only through the vote can the state be moralized and re- formed, and there are others who be- Ieye the woman'S vote would be waste Of energy because a duplication of effort, and that there would be no compromising gain to women or the state for this economic loss.
 -sWomen are not a cIass-they are sex-and their interests are the same as those of men. To men hitherto has been entrusted the affairs of gov ernment. Women stand today Tor the duties of moral and social life apart from the spectacular duty of exeFets- ing political power under stress of per sona1 political ambition,
 'sAll this agitation for the ballot takes the proper attention away from the only direction from which relief can come, the elevation of the stand ard os individual character, and fast CHS it upon a point from which per- manent relief can never come-the ballot box"
 The speaker closed by charging the suff1agists with condonif1g the law lessness of Mrs. PankhurSt and the English naiKta1ts.
 Admission to the town hall next Tuesday eye0ino will be free and the members of the local association will do everything possible to care for the crowd that will undoubtedly want to hear this gifted speaker.

HARVARD PREPARES

Crimson Team Drilled on De-

PENN. COACHES WRANGLE

Harvard football team was com
pei1ed to devote much of its time
Yesterday during the practice period
to plays designed to offset the lat
eral pass and the other open style
football instruments which Yale has
nsed with such success this season.
The Harvard teams work was
marked by unusual brilliance, be-
cause Of the return of BricHey ana
.Soucy to the scrimmage. Francke,
the big back who was reported Sc
riously injured, was also on the grid
iron apparently as strong as ever.
At Yale Harold Pumpelly, who has
been in dry dock with a bad ankle
was brought out on the field and he
showed some of his old-time skill BY
shooting over goals from The field
in twenty-five tries. The poor kick

Princeton game. lie Gore failed 10

ELM BOWLERS TO ROL

Excellent bowling was done last
night in The Star headpin tourna-
ment, when the Westinghouse teams
had their second of the six special
nights which they have been allotted
in the big competition on the IroquQis
alleys. There were sixty pin-knights
on the job and the occasion was
marked by the winning of two of the
silver watchfobs which The Star
awards those who have counts of 100
or better. John G.. Morrell distin-
guished himself by accounting for a
mark of 1903, in spite of the fact that
he missed the headpip in the eighth
frame. Had he succeeded in making
clean record of twelve hits in a
row he would probably have taken
first place in the competition for the
diamond medal which The Star hands
out each season to the bowler who
makes tho best score during the tour
nament. Another watchfob winner
was Howard G. Mullane, who tailed
! 106 on twelve clean hits There was
an excellent turnout and John Nc
Greevy proved to be capable man
| ager. Here are all the scores:

Westinghouse night No. 2 was run

John McGreevy, the veteran bowler,

rep for himself as headpin man

A fine crowd was on hand to watch
the ambitious headpin bowlers, and
the fob winners were cheered to the
echo.
Last night was the twentieth night
of the headpin tournament
John G. Morrell, bowling with the
first team, won the first fob of the
evening, scoring 1903. He had miss
in the eighth frame, which marred
an otherwise perfect game.
Howard G.. Mullane was the second
fob-winner, scoring 1O6, .and went
through with a clean game. He
bowled with the ninth team.
John McGreevy, the hero of thou.
sand bowling tournaments, found his
managerial duties too heavy for him
and the best John could do was tc
put up a score Of II.

Very seriously, McAuliffe told me
what a common lot the boxers of
today were.
"Of the present-day fighters, Nc
Auliffe said, zone or two stand out
as possessing class, but only one or
two, and this is 50 because they are
pupils of the old school We will
take Packey Mcfarland, for in
stance" McAuliffe went on to ex-
plain. when l first saw PaclSey box
could see the master hand Of
Harry Gilmore in the boys clever
ness. Gilmore, wonderful fighter
in his day, taught Mcfarland how to
box, and he has made a good job
of it. Mike Gibbons is also a grand
boxer. and he has picked up his
knowledge from the old school. But
where are there any other first-class
men in the game today? I don't
know of any, do you?"

McAuliffe is clever in his act on
the stage, and he is q clever CONVEX
