College Women Trouble the Ants

1t is now unusual to find educated
women of the present generation who
are opposed to the acknowledgements of
their own sex, but ~suffragists We're
somewhat surprised when this was adj
mitted by a leading anti-suffragist of
Poughkeepsie, N. Y.
This lady startled her audience re
Gently by saying:
"Poughkeepsie has suffered from its
proximity to a woman's college. The
college students, who seem to be all
suffragists, used to come over and dem
onstrate their enthusiasm in Pough-
keepsie under the rule of President
Taylor. Now that DR.. McCracken, an
ardent suffragist himself, is in charge
they keep their enthusiasm IN the

IN THE WAR AND AFTER.
Battle Incident Which Led Later to
Restoration OF a Sword.


Restoration of a Sword.
General Keifer, later in congress
from the Springfield CO.) district. vas
one of the last men wounded in the
civil war. He entered the volunteer
army in April. 1861, and served until
after Lees surrender in 1860. In all
that time he received three scratches.
but shortly after the surrender he was
scouting at the head of a small force
of cavalry and came suddenly upon a
large force of Confederate cavalry.
There was a skirmish. in which Keifer
was wounded and In which he would
have been killed had it not been for
the Intervention of the Confederate
commander. who. under the circum-
stances, simply wanted to be let alone.
Keifer returned to camp, had his
wound dressed, reported to headquar-
tiers and received special orders and
with re-enforcements started to find
the derelict Confederates. He found
them, and Colonel Tucker, the Confed-
crate commander. surrendered. Keifer
carried fuckers sword home with him.
and it was kept in his library at Spring
field as a trophy of the war.
In 1876 Keifer was elected to con-
gress and in 1881 was elected speaker.
Among his acquaintance In 1879 was
John Randolph Tucker of Virginia. In
conversation one day Keifer told Tuck
er the story of the sword. and Tucker
said the officer who surrendered the
day Of the skirmish was undoubtedly
his brother. This fact being establish
ed, Keifer took the sword to Washing
ton and placed it In the hands of j.
Randolph Tucker, who restored it to
its original owner. In after years Gen
eral Keifer became again a member of
congress and found the sol of ]. Ran
dolph Tucker in the fathers seat.

AT THE BLOODY ANGLE"
Recalled by Civil War Survivors IS .
Very Hot Place.

Very Hot Place.
One of the most desperate fights of
the civil war was that which took
place at the Bloody Angle" on May
L, 1864. 1t is still remembered by the
survivors as probably the hottest place
they ever were In. General L. A
Grant, commander of the Vermont
brigade. described the fight at the
dead line as follows:
1T was 0 only a desperate struggle
but it was literally a hand to hand
fight. Nothing but the piled up logs or
breastworks separated the combatants
Our men would reach over the logs and
fire into the faces of the enemy, who
would stab over with their bayonets
Many were shot and stabbed through
the crevices and holes between the
logs. Men mounted the works and
with muskets rapidly handed them
kept up a continuous fire until they
were shot down, when others would
take their places and continue the
deadly work.
Several times during the day the
Confederates would show a white flag
about the works and when our fire
slackened jump over and surrender,
and others were crowded down to fill
their places. 1t was there that the
somewhat celebrated tree was cut off
by bullets-there that the brush and
logs were cut to pieces and whipped
into basket stuff"
General MCGOWAN. who was on the
other side of the trenches leading the
South Carolina brigade, stated II his
report:
Our men lay on one side of the
breastwork, the enemy on the other.
and in many instances men were
pulled yer. The trenches on the right
had to be cleared of the dead more
than once, An oak tree twenty-five
inches in diameter in rear Of the bri-
gade was cut down by musket balls,
and it fell about - o'clock Thursday
night, the 18th, injuring seyeral men
in the First South Carolina regiment"

Cow tramcars run by the corporations
committee. The initial experiment had
been SO good that after hearing a re-
port upon the women's work the gen
eral manager was instructed to go
ahead and employ as many women as
he found necessary. The women are
being paid 81 shilIings, same as the
men, and the hours and general condi-
lions are to remain as they were when

Danish Women VIE Full sufraae.

DdniSn women win run ouHra9e.
On June 8 the king of Denmark will
sign a bill comforting full suffrage on
the women of Denmark.
For seven years all Danish women
who are taxpayers have had a vote for
all officers except members of parlia-
ment.
Equal suffrage spreads from one
country to another in Europe as it
spreads from state to state in our own
country. The women of Norway have
full suffrage, while there is an i'm
mense popular majority for equal suf-
frage in Sweden. Full suffrage in
Sweden has been delayed only by the
vote of the upper house, which is ION
elective.

But armies and instruments OF war
are only part OF what has 10 be con-
sidered II we are 10 consider the SUI
preme matter Of national self suficlen-
cy and security in all its aspects.
There are other great matters which
will be thrust upon our attention
whether we viii or not. There Is. for
example, a very pressing question Of
trade and shipping involved in this
great problem OF national adequacy.
IL is necessary for many weighty rea-
sons Of national efficiency and devel-
opment that we should have a great
merchant marine. The great merchant
feet we once used 20 make us rich,
that great body Of sturdy sailors who
used to carry our flag into every sea.
and who were the pride and often the
bulwark OF the nation, we have almost
driven out Of existence by inexcusable
neglect and indifference and by hope
lessly blind and provincial policy OF
so called economic protection. IL is
high time we repaired our mistake and
resumed our commercial independence
on the seas.
With a view 10 meeting these press
ing necessities OF our commerce and
availing ourselves at the earliest posi-
BILE moment OF the present unparalleled
opportunity Of linking the two Ameri
cas- together I'm bonds OF mutual inter
est and service, an opportunity which
may never return again If We miss 4
now, proposals will be made 20 the
present congress for the purchase o.
construction OF ships 10 be owned ans
directed by the government similar q
those made TO the last congress, bu
modified in some essential particulars
recommend these proposals to yol
for your prompt acceptance with th
more confidence because every montl
that has elapsed since the former pre-
posals were made has made the nc
cessity for such action more and NOR
manifestly imperative. That need wa
then foreseen. IL IS now acutely fe
and everywhere realized by those fc
. whom trade IS waiting, but who ca
find no conveyance for their goods.
\. am not so much interested in the pa
ticulars OF the program as am
taking immediate advantage OF n
great opportunity which awaits us
{. we will but act in this emergency.
this matter. as i'm all others spirit
I, common counsel should prevail. an
out OF It should come an early sol
tion of this pressing problem.
