Somebody has raised question as to
the eligibility of Jeanette Rankin TO
take the seat in the House OF Repre-
sentatives to which she has been cleo
ted by the Republicans of Montana. 1t
is pointed out that the Constitution de.
clares mo person shall be a represent.
alive who shall not have attained to
the age of twenty five years. and been
seven years a citizen OF the United
States, and who shall not, when elect
ed. be an nhabitant of that state in
which he shall be chosen" The Oh,
ieclors to Miss Rankin place an ac-
cent on the me in this proviso, and
want to know how she" can mean
anythingbut man.
The answer to this Challenge would
seem to be That Webster's Dictionary
observes: "When a collective noun or
a class is referred to, he is OF common
SIN Great Britain and generally in
the United States, he as used in stat
utes is by statutory provisions made to
include females, unless the contrary
intention appears
The following, from Article XIV. OF
Amendments to the federal Constitu-
ton also would seem to have some
bearing on the subject; "All persons
born or naturalized in the United
States, and subject to the jurisdiction
thereof, are citizens OF the United
States, and of the state wherein they
reside. No state shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the privi-
leges or immunites Of citizens OF the
United States
OF course congressional majority
can without warrant in justice exclude
a duly elected and fully qualified mem
Der Of either sex under the provision
that each house shall be the judge o
its own members; but the reasonable
expectation is that the first woman NJ
c., bearing unimpeachable credential
from Montana, will receive the utmos
courtesy ms well as constitutional jus
tiee from masculine members Of Con
gress.

A series of books on health and n.y.
giene for public schools has just been
completed by Prof. NJ. V. O'Shea OF
the department of education in the
Univers ty of Wisconsin. The books
have already been adopted extensively
throughout the country.
The series was written joiutly by
Professor q Shea AID DR.. j. II. Kellogg.
The TITLES Of the books in order OF
their place in the series are Health
Habits "The body in Health, "
Health and Cleanliness" and ,"Mak-
ing the Most of Life"
This set of books differs from any
other dealing with the same subject, lin
thUt they are based on study of the
attitude of youth toward health ideas
and practices. The books treat the
question of health in relation to energy
efficiency, and ell-bein.g Everyday
life is discussed from the standpoint of
conserving enough energy to accom-.
plish the daily tasks with enough left
over for enterprise, initiative, and
good feeling.
Many illustrations, both photographs
and diagrams, show the relation of
physical facts to matters OF health.
They supplement the text and aid in
Uringing out the ideas of the authors.

Act ing Secretary Polk, on his part, has communicated the result of his con Vcrsations to President Wilson and Secretary of State Lansing, and is understood to be ready now to pro- ceed with arrangements for a meeting of commissioners to represent the two governments to work out the set clement of differences.
 It was stated on good authority to- night that if commissioners were appointed, they would be empowered to discuss all questions relating to the protection of the American bor- der, including gradual withdrawal of United States troops from Mexico, if the de facto government demonstrate ed it's ability to prevent bandit raids.

LIQUOR QUESTION
 GOES TO VOTERS
(By Clio Harper.)

Little Rock, July 20-It is prac- tically assured that the prohibition ists of the state will be unable to successfully attack the validiy of the initiative petition that has been filed with the secretary of state for the repeal of the statewide prohibit ion law.
 In order 10 make showing against the petition, t would be necessary to purge it of 7,295 signatures, or all most one third of the 1S.136 names signed to the petition. It is manifest that this will be impossible, unless some wholesale Justification of sig
 natures can be discovered. which is improbable. Those who circulated the petition knew that it is felony to forge signatures to the petition, and they say they were very careful to secure the signatures of only quali- fled electors.
 Leaders of the Anti-Saloon league
 are planning campaign Of educa- tion and enlightenment upon the sub ject of practical and applied prohibi- tion which they believe will over- come the work of those who are making their fight upon the local op- tion platform. These leaders are not infavor of attempting to purge the petition, which was circulated and signed in less than three weeks, but to devote all their time and energies to an open fight against the endorse
 ment Of the proposed law by the peo- pie in November.
 It will be shown that business of all kinds has been better than it was
 under the old saloon system. and that
 business. interests in general are op-
 posed to the r2peal of the law. It will show that crime has been les
 sened and savings accounts have ln- creased, that collections have been better and the volume of mercantile
 business greatly increased.
 Already there is promise of spirit
 ed contest before the general election l in November.

OUTLAW CARRIERE
 ELUDES PURSUERS

Opelousas, La., July 2O.-Thirty-s six men with rifles tonight are guarding a canebrake Is miles southwest of here, in which Hillary Carriere, who, Monday at dawn, murdered Sheriff Marion Swords of St. Landry parish, was known to be hiding. About 20 other men at dark started into the brake with the intention of driving him out of his hiding place and with in range of the rifles.
 The canebrake is dense and almost impossible, and the few trails are said to be well known to Carriere.
 Carriere is said to have escaped from the woods near Eunice during the night and doubled on his tracks. entering the canebrake with food which he obtained at the point of his rifle from family living near Savoy, which is between Eunice and Opelou- sas.

LIST OF STORM
 VICTIMS NOW 83

Asheville, N. C., July 2O-Ten fatalities reported today from Alta pass. N. C.. swelled the death list of Sundays floods in the southeastern states to 83. Nine men are known to be missing and as other points in western North Carolina which were flood-swept are yet to report the death toll probably will be increased.
 Relief is being sent into the flooded sections as rapidly as possible now that the rivers have fallen to almost normal. With crops damaged and thousands of persons thrown out of employment by destruction of indus trial plants, some suffering may fol- low in the more remote sections.
 Large forces of workers are rush. ing repairs to railroads, but it prob ably will be several weeks before normal train schedules are resumed on the branch railroad lines in the flooded area. All main line tracks of the Southern, Atlantic Coast line and Seaboard Air line are open with normal schedules maintained.

Arrival Near Submarine of British Ship Worries
 U-Boat People.

Baltimore, July 2O-A British car go steamer which anchored north of the submarine Deutschland today, gave officials of the Eastern Forward ing company cause of worry tonight. The British vessel is in position to observe any movement of the subma- rine. Seachlights of the tug Timmins were flashed on the Britisher throughout the night.
 Capt. Cullison of the Timmins re- ported for duty aboard the tug to- night. He has spent several days around the shipping centers of this section, getting a line on movement of vessels generally.
 Capt Paul Koenig, commander of the Deutschland, put on his uniform today for the first time since he land ed here, eleven days ago, and for sev- eral hours this morning studied the charts of the Patapsco river and Chesapeake bay with Captain Freder- ick Hanson, commander of the North German Lloyd liner Neckar. When Captain Koenig went back aboard the undersea liner he took with him a duplicate manifest of the ships cargo. Another copy was ready to be taken to the customs house.
 Captain Koenig said he would not leave his ship again and indicated an early departure, but said nothing that would give an idea just when the sub marine would leave.
 It was understood the Deutsch- lands engines and submerging ma chinery had been given a final test and were found to be in perfect con- ditiOu

HOLDS BOOZE LIMIT
 LAW INOPERATIVE

Meridian, Miss, July 2O.-Justice Price today held the section of Mis- sissippi's new prohibition law, limit ing the shipment of liquor to in- individuals within the state to one quart every 15 days, to be in obey ance, by reason of the filing on July 7 of the petitions for an election to repeal the section.
 Judge Price held that the injunction served July on the secretary of state restraining him from taking any action on the petition was without au- thority.
 The former "gallon-a-day" law, Judge Price held, was operative. The attorney-gener however, has adv vised express companies that the new law still is effective.

TWO ASPHYXIATED
 IN AN OLD WELL,

John Lawrence, aged 65, and Rob- ert DeBolt, aged 35. were asphyxiated in an old we'll on the Bright farm, located on the upper Hot Springs road, about 90 miles northwest of Pine Bluff, according to lews reach ing the city yesterday.
 It is believed that both men were overcome by gas from a pocket open cd by blasting. DeBolt was seen to collapse at the bottom of the pit, and Lawrence, who descended in an at- tempt at rescue, was overcome while attaching a rope about DeBolt's body. The bodies were finally brought to the surface by the use Of ice tongs, after Tom Lawrence. son of John Lawrence, had been partially over come when lowered at the end of a rope.
