DELEGATES TEST
FEMININE MIND
"HeIp Us or You're Unfit
to Vote" They Tell
Suffragists.
By ALICE DUER MILLER.

Chicago, June 5.-All delegates to
both Republican and Progressive con-
ventions seem to be agreed on one
question A. least: That women, in order
TO show their fitness for the vote, must
actively support the candidate support
Cd b. the speaker.
"Tell me who you're for. | want to test
woman's judgment" said one Of the
New York delegation to-day. Woman
was reliably informed that she could
have the vote tomorrow # she would
agree on the right candidate. The New
York delegate was left disputing bit
torly with another as to who the right
candidate was.
The National Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation and the Congressional Union,
though advocating different methods OF
working for suffrage. viii combine
Wednesday IN the suffrage parade.
MANY Of the warning delegates to the
mems conventions are horrited AZ the
existence Of any difference of opinion
between women as TO their political
methods.
Meanwhile. the hotels are full OF con-
fusion and a rather strained good TEL
lowship. II has been day or hanging
around and introducing people whose
names you cant remember. Every one
is all cordiality and misintormatloni
every one is showing a desire TO be
nleasant and a scattered attention.
The rumor is persisting that the
Proqressives are willing to consider a
conference with the Republicans, look
ING 10 combination Of the two par
ties. This is borne out by the fact
that Progressive delegates keep assur,
ing the sufrragists that they will stand
by the suffrage plank in their platform,

Princeton. n j.. June 5.-Princeon

Utopia if new plans contemplated by
the faculty work out satisfactorily.
Why students fail and are eventually
pushed out into the world minus

Princeton authorities. The cause has
been diagnosed at last as "a sublime
indifference for The future" Two
thirds of the men who fail at college
are men who have failed TO profit by
their failure of former years.
The new plan will divide all failures
into two classes, Class +. to include
failures removable by examinations

have to repeat courses in which they
have fallen down before they can pro
