When Col. Cosby saw doctor next
day the throat was found to be in
very bad condition, as from an
acute attack of laryngitis. The col

a week he could speak only in whis-

throat had relaxed enough to let him

Division in Ranks

We are told hat the question of
the right of women to speak in pub
lie, vote, and to serve as delegates in
conventions caused a division in the
ranks of the American anti-slayery
society In 1870, and disturbed the
peace of the worlds anti-slavery con.
vention held in London the same
year. AS delegates to that coaven-
ton, among whom were Lucretia
Mott, Abby Southwiek and six other
young women under thirty years of
age. When Wendell Phillips, whose
name and prominence are well known
to this generation, moved the admis-
sion of all the delegates having prop
er credentials, an English clergyman
objected to the admission Of the
American ONE "as it would shock
the sense of propriety of the people
of England" He was supported by
the Rev. Henry Grew of Philadelphia,
who gravely proclaimed that "the re-
ception of women as a part of the
convention would be a violation CT
the customs of England and the or
dinance of almighty God" Wendell

plead the cause in which they were
successful at the former session and
under such favorable circumstances.
1t has been claimed by a well In
formed writer on the subject that
had they made their arguments
through their ablest advocates to the
tribunal which must decide the case,
it was the general belief OF impartial
observers that they would have won
victory. But instead they called a

Had the suffrage managers taken the
advice of the able and experienced
legislator, there is little doubt that
equal suffrage would have been en-
grated upon u state constitution"
In 1874 when the republican state
convention met a gifted and deter
mined woman, Elizabeth Boynton
Harbert was given a nearing before
the committee on resolutions and by
ner aDle, earnest anu diSu-
ment, secured the adoption Of the fol
lowing resolution by the convention:
Resolved, that since the people may

as to extend the right OF suffrage to
i women, pursuant to the action of the

In his message to the Sixteenth
general assembly Governor Carpenter
urged the approval of the suffrage
amendment. Matilda Hindman was
granted a hearing before the legisla-
ture and Susan B. Anthony Is said to
have made a powerful appeal to the
members in a public speech. The
measure was defeated, however, in
the senate after having passed the

 Pine Bluff music lovers, as we'll as the local friends of Miss Cline, will read with interest the following from yesterdays Little Rock Democrat. that paper having printed half-tone likeness of Miss Cline in connection with the article:
 "The Little Rock Festival chorus, which will bring to this city on April 9, 26 and 27 the Minneapolis Sym phOney orchestra in connection with the fifth annual musical festival, is an organization, the like of which but few cities in the United States can boast. There are not more than ten cities in the United States that have a like organization, it is said, and no state that touches Arkansas has such an organization.
 Miss Sarah Yancy Cline, who has directed the Little Rock chorus from it's first year, has presented the fol- lowing complete works: Mendels- sohn's 'Elijah,' with the Victor Her. bert orchestra; Handel's Messiah, with the St. Louis Symphony orches- tra; Haydn's 'Creation, with the St.. Paul Symphony orchestra, and Han del's Judas Maccabaeus,' with the New York Symphony orchestra.

Women are rapidly learning the many advantages of the pantalettes as underwear. When finished with deep lace frills, as they are here, they are very pretty and attractive for wear beneath dressy gowns end their comfort and satisfaction is not to be disputed. The garment shown here combines pantalettes with chemise o< corset cover top, but if liked the pantalettes can be cut off at the waist line and joined to belt. When they arc made together with the upper portion they are of course designed for batiste and lawn and underwear silks but when they arc made sepa- rately they can be used for a variety of materials. If they are made of heavy satin or silk, they are admirable for skating and for general winter wear. Serge is durable and serviceable for bad weather. Lighter silks and wools are also available. For such use pam talettes should be finished with bands below the knees and without frills. The latter are designed for evening wear.
