his reading and, apparently taking in
the situation at a glance, smiled
broadly and without hesitation or
interruption turned his eyes back to
his manuscript and continued his
address to it's end without further
demonstrations.
Policemen and gallery guards sour
ried to where the women were
seated, but contented themselves
with watching the party as if to
prevent further outbreak.
When the joint session was over
the suffragsts filed out unmolested
by the police, who said they had no
orders other than to prevent any
other infringement of the rules Of
the house. The banner remained a
trophy with the sergeant-at-arms.
AS 1t turned out, the women had
their plans laid with precision and
sprung their coup almost on the
second. Evidently In possession Of
an advance copy of the presidents
address, they had timed the docu.
ment at the speed they expected he
would read, and anticipated he would
reach the Porto Rico section in eight
minutes.
Miss Mabel Vernon of Nevada, who
heckled the president here at his
American Federation of Labor speech
last July and who struggled the ban
ner into the house gallery under he
coat. kept time and gave the sigma

After acknowledging the prolonged
cheers and applause which greeted
his entry to the hall of the house, the
nresident launched into his address
and had passed to his recommends

porto Rico. He was just about to
begin sentence:
"The present laws governing the
island and regulating the rights and
privileges of its people are not just"
when over the rail of the gallery,
where sat party or woman Suffrage
leaders, there futtered down above
the heads of an amazed assemblage
of senators and representatives a
silken banner of suffrage yellow bear
