PLANS TO KEEP
UP THE FIGHT
Suffragists Not Dishearteu-
ed by Action Of House.
WELL PLEASED WITH VOTE
Leaders In Battle for the Ballot De
clare the Result Was Better Than
Expected--How Northwestern Nom.
bers Lined Up on Question.

Washington Jan. 14.-Undaunted
by the defeat of equal suffrage in the
house suffrage leaders assert the fight
is merely warming up.
Their next move, they indicate,
would be in the senate.
The vote of 204 for and ia against
the measure. thirty votes less than
the necessary two-thirds majority, was
regarded by Mrs. Antoinette Funk,
vice chairman of the womans con
gressional union, as exactly one
fourth more than We suffragists had
expected to muster
From my point of view" she de-
clared, the achievement OF vote on
this resolution was victory for suf-
frage, since il had never before reach
ed the stage of consideration in the
house itself"
Mrs. Arthur NJ Dodge, head of the
antis, tersely commented that the
movement fostered by hysterical
women is on the wane"
Three plans were put forward by
the suffragists for the continuing of
the fight:
Ways for Gaining the Vote.
Passage of the Shafroth-Palmer suf-
frage resolution now on the senate
calendar; passage of federal meas
ure whereby women could vote for
senators and representatives and pas
sage in the states OF bill to permit
women to vote for president.
The Northwest vote on the resolu.
ton was: Minnesota, for, Steenerson,
Smith, Anderson, Lindbergh and Vol.
stead; against, Stevens, Miller and
Davis; absent, Manahan
North Dakota, for, Helgeson, Nor.
ton and Young.
South Dakota, for, Dillon and Mar
tin: against, Burke.

against. Cooper, Burke, Cary, Stafford

PROFITABLE MUD HOLE
KandiyOhi Man Makes Neat Sum
Assisting AutOists Out of
Nurtured MudhOle

1t is claimed that a man over
near Willmar has pet mudhole
near his farm that is quite a
revenue producer. One day last
week he made over SIT hauling
autos out of the hole and as
this was just an average day
there is no doubt but what this
was a paying business. But like
all good things, it had to come
to an end for one of the motor
lists that by chance went that
route twice and had to be hauled
out each time at $500 per,
watched to see why that partic-
ular hole failed to dry up. About
dusk he saw the farmer and his
sons drive up with a large tank
of water which they distributed
literally about the depression
and when they finished there
was as nice a mud hole as one
would wish to keep out Of

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Do You Know Your Age and
the Year and Day Of Your
Birth?

How old are you? When were
you born? See if you really
know. See if your children know
how old they are. Do not laugh
at these simple questions until
you try the test.
According to a recent issue
of the United States public
health service reports, it is a
common occurrence to find school
children, even high school pu-
pills in the junior and senior
years, who cannot tell how old
they are, or who, if they know
their age, cannot tell accurate
ly in what year they were BORN.
You will need this informa-
ton when you apply for a mar
riage license, or in registering
for voting, or in seeking a gov
eminent position, or in case you
claim that you are heir to a for
tune that is going to some 9TH
err person. You may have to go
under oath as to your age when
you pay your custom duties up
on return from your next Euro
pean trip. So you should prac-
tice.
In some of our states there is
no birth registration, so you
may not be able to prove from
the records that you ever were
born. This might be embarras-
sing to you if you want to mar
ry in Europe.
Perhaps the easiest way to
remember your age is to form
some jingle or rhine on your
birth year. For instance, In
1897 little Johnnie came from
heaven" or ''in 1882 little Susie
began to boo" Never mind what
the rhine is, just so you remem-
Der it, and if, after reaching the
age of forty, you want to prove
that you are only twenty-three
years old, just change the rime
and perhaps people will believe
you when you repeat the jingle
to prove your truth.-EXchange.

HOW A BEAR FISHES

Few people have had the op-
portunity Of seeing a bear feed
ing-that is, in his native state
and fewer still have seen him
fishing. But fish he does, and
in it he displays an amount of
patience and dexterity that is
amazing. He will lie motionless
upon an overhanging log or
bank with paw poised and little
beady eyes attentively scanning
the water. Salmon and trout
are his chief delight, and should
one come near enough to the
surface he is snapped out on
the bank with a flip and a twist

Two efendants-George Ehren-
hardt. member of the Board of Pub
lie Works. and John f. Green--were
among the nine witnesses who t60ki-
fed today. In reply to questions by
A. o. Stanley, chief counsel for the
defense, Green and Ehrenhardt de-
MED specifically the Governments
charges.
Green stated that he was not con-
nected with the Terre Haute city adj
ministration. He admitted that he,
as the election inspector, worked the
lever on the voting machine for about
two hours. but quit when it was
pointed out that he was violating the
lad. The defendant also asserted
that he did not see how anyone vot-
ed and that he did not hand cards
to voters, which they could redeem at
81 each on the outside. He also de-
MED talking with Mayor Roberts in
regard 10 the duties of election in
spectors.
The witness was undergoing a Sc
we're cross-examination at the hands
of District Attorney Daley, when
court recessed at noon 1t was
brought out that Green has indict-
mehts pending aginst him for crim-
inal operations; that he has conduct
ed & pawn shop from which stolen
goods had been recovered; that he
operated a gambling device with a

killing a man. but had been eXoner-
ated by the coroner.
Ehreuhardt. who was registration
inspector as well as election inspec-
tor. denied signing voters on election
dayby using the lever. A number of
applications for registration. which
the Government asserts were signed
by Ehrenhardt, were shown the de-
fendant on cross-eXamination, but he
denied they were in his handwriting.
Other witnesses testified to the
character of the defendants and cleo
tion. officials who served in the pre-
cincts with Green and Ehrenhardt.

Is CHARGED With
FALSE TESTIMONY
Daveru Arrested After Declaring
No Repeating Done In Tssre
Haute Election.

Indianapolis. Ind, March 90
William Davern, a witness for the de-
PENDANT Fred Morrison in the Terre
Haute election fraud trial in the Fed
eral Court, was held to the Federal
grand jury on the charge of perjury
after he had completed his testimony

vern, who was the Democratic cleo
tion clerk in the precinct in which

not worked the lever of the voting
machine. He also denied that he
knew that ninety-one names not on
the registration books had been vot-
ed or that forty-one names and reg
istration numbers had been voted
twice in the precinct. as Mr.. Daley
contended the election records show.
Mr.. Daley said the witnesses had
contradicted at least twenty Govern
ment witnesses.
Fred Morrison, an employee of the
street department. and John M. Mas

ures and former member of the State

ON the voting machine only when he
himself voted, although a number of
Government witnesses testified that
he worked the lever all day. He also
denied knowledge OF repeating of vot-
ers and that he passed out cards on
which the repeaters were paid 81 by

ant. The witness also repudiated the
testimony of Frank Tryon. who serv-
ed for a time ON the Election Board

PASSENGER STEAMER
VICTIM OF GERMANS
Story Of Heartless Act By Ger.
man Sailors Almost Un-
believable.

Cardiff, Wales, March 30.-One of
the Falaba's passengers, in telling
of their experiences, said that when
the submarine ordered the passengers
to take to the boats, the boats were
lowered Immediately and the pasen-
gers were served with life-belts, but
no one was allowed to take any per-
sonal effects.
"Then followed horrible scene"
said the passenger. "Some Of the
boats were swamped and the occu-
pants were thrown into the sea. Sew
eral were drowned almost immediate
ly.
Barely 10 minutes after we re
ceived the order to leave the ship,
1 heard a report and saw the vessel
heel over. The Germans had actu-
ally fired torpedo at her at range
of about 100 yards when large num-
Der of passengers, the captain and 9TH
er officers were still distinctly to be
seen aboard"
All the passengers and officers say
that the submarine fired. torpedo
before all of the boats were lowered
and while many persons were still
aboard the steamer. One officer
said:
II was sitting in boat which was
suspended from the davits and was
waiting for two women passengers,
when another officer shouted. Look
out and then l saw the bubbles
marking the track of a torpedo.
There was a tremendous crash
and the boat fell from the davits and
turned over. throwing the passengers
and crew into the water. The water
was frightfully cold. and there were
many who died from exposure"
