seen passing by here big devil Of man, In

her that she could not survive the anguish of
the separation. From the moment she had
vowed a bitter hate against that harsh and
perhdious Germany-against those accursed
Germans who had snatched her child away
from her. Her rancor fed on itself Having
no one to whom to confde her grief, her bitter
ness intensified itself to the point at which she
thought sometimes that her reason was shaken.

She paced the hovel, her lips tight and her
eyes dry Suddenly she trembled; it seemed to
her that she heard groaning behind the door.
She listened; it was without doubt only an idea.
Her head was in a whirl from the bad news.
The groanng was renewed-this time louder
and longer. The She-Wolf stopped; with an
instructive movement she clasped her hands;
her visaee took on an attentive and composed
expression.

Yet every man mentioned for Presi-
dent or Vice-President possessed some
or all of these qualifications.
The suffrage plank was not the only
triumph at Chicago. The men in the
New York delegation who have been con-
spicuous in opposing suffrage in this
state have conspicuously declined in
power.
Before the convention Mr.. William
Barnes Gan anti-suffragist) was national
committeeman from this state; Mr..
Henry NJ Sage Can anti-suffragisD was
spoken of for Governor, and Mr. Elon K.
Brown Gan anti-suffragist) was spoken
of as United States Senator.
At the end of the convention Mr.. Her
bert Parsons "a suffragist) was elected
national committeeman; Governor Whit
man (suffragist) was assured of his re-
nomination, and a name suggested for
a senatorship was that of Mr.. Calder, of
Brooklyn, who had just said that if suf-
frage came up on the floor Of the conven-
ton he believed he would vote for it.
If it is good politics to put suffrage
plank in your platform to conciliate the
81 electoral votes of the suffrage states
is it wise to allow the chairman of your
resolutions committee to wink ostenta-
tiously, while reading the plank, as an

himself into the house.
Dsquieted, but full of pity for this unknown
man, whom she associated with the memory
of her son, the She-Wof stood aside and let
him in.
A piece Of black bread and pitcher Of water
we're on the tabe-the remnants of the old
woman's meal.
The man greedily devoured the bread and
drank the water.
The unknown, who had collected all his
strength TO grasp after this pitiful nourish-
ment, fell in heap behind the door, to which
he had turned again, and. without word,
without motion, went to sleep there, ex-
hausted at the very end Of his forces
The old woman's first impulse was to cast
the intruder out. But seeing him so near
collapse, she lacked the heart to do it. She
would have resisted like a she-wolf any one
who attacked her; before this defenceless be
ing she felt indifference rather than hostility.
She examined curiously the strong young
fellow, clothed in gray, with hair the color of
flax, square brow and the big round eyes Of
faence blue which she had seen him fix so
ravenousy on the bread crust. She found him
heavy and ugly in comparison with her Mael,
at once so robust and so supple and whose
beautiful black locks she had so often caressed.
She was brusquely interrupted in her ex-
animation by a sound of voices without She

Will the Republicans stand by their
platform?
Or by Senator Lodges wink?
Mr.. George Cromwell, of Richmond,
when interviewed in Chicago by suffra-
gists is reported to have said that ne was
opposed because he could imagine no
more desperate situation than where the
cook and the laundress were of different
political faiths
He did not touch on the desperateness
of a disagreement between the butler
and the furnace man.
All good regular Republicans in the
State of New York being now good suf-
fragists by their party platform, there
seems nothing for the ants to do except
perhaps to send Senator Root to convert
the labor unions.
One of the women who marched in the
suffrage parade in Chicago was asked by
a man opposed why they had their pa
rade in such wild storm. Because, >,

squatted before the sleeper and, in a harsh,
thick voice, arraigned him.
Il had a son like you-a youth big and
strong-stronger than you. He was so good
that neither you nor any other of your accursed
race could be so good as he! You and yours
have killed him. At the bottom Of you all is
monster ready to kill. You have fallen among
wolves. Il is their turn and they are going to
kill YOU
He understood nothing, sunken In his heavy
sleep.
The old woman grew more and more excited.
Now she spoke with loud cries, punctuated with
exaggerated gestures:
"You are among wolves here. The she-woves
avenge themselves when one kills their young.
The gendarmes would have put you back in
prison. | was willing to deliver you TO the
gendarmes, but not that you should go back to
prison. The Germans have killed my SON. they

A billhook hung on the wall. With quick
movement she seized it, raised her arm and
hurled herself upon the sleeper. He gave
start and then fell back, stiff and stark upset
ting the candle, which was extinguished. In
the silence, in the obscurity, the wild laugh OF
the She-Wof echoed.

A dreadful doubt assails us as to
whether the Republican platform COM
mittee had carefully read its Dubuque
Telegraph Herald for May %, which
says:
every woman who demands that her
government stand for law instead of
license, for order rather than anarchy,
for the sanctity of the home instead OF
free love- for one wife rather than for
several, for the Creator instead OF
mythical being Of the skies should use
her clearest vision to see the hydra
headed monster of Socialism, Mormon
ism. Feminism that is believing forth
the cry Votes for Women that it may
use its unwilling victims eventually for
the accomplishment of its own bestial
ends"
We have to confess that this did occur:
A speaker who hoped that the conven-
ton would end in a marriage between
the Republican groom and the Progress
sive bride had been preceded by a speak
er who symbolized the two parties as
meeting beside the grave Of their dead
babe, the dead babe turning out, most

"En Shouting these words the rural
~ carrier beat rudely on the door.
Having thus douby announced his errand to
the tenant Of the miserable hut, lost in the
midst Of the woods, he hurried away, taking
the shortest cut to the high road.
Inside the hovel an old woman had arisen
from the table at which she was taking a
scanty meal to 90 and pick up the paper
slipped under the door. 1t was an official let
ter bearing the seal OF the Mayors Office.
What could they be demanding at this time
of her. who possessed nothing?
Contemptuous rather than curious, she
opened the envelope, without beating of the
heart or a trembling of the hand, without the
slightest presentiment that its message would
bring misery into her home.
But scarcely had she cast her eyes over the
cold administrative phrases Of the letter when
she uttered the long, dolorous cry OF wound
cd beast Her fingers clenched the sheet on
which she had seen only two words-the name
Of Mael. her beloved son, and the announce
ment Of his death. He was no nrore-the hand
some boy who had not yet reached his twen-
teth year! Killed by the Germans, those ban
dts
She could not believe her misfortune.
With her grief mingled a violent wrath
against MaeIs assassins. Hate ended by OBJ
sessing this defaced soul. Without tear,
without tremble, she repeated:
"My son. my little SON."
She loved him absolutely, although he was

self a better mother to him than his own
mother?
This old woman, hardy as an oak, with an
squiline nose and eyes of steel, which gave
her a sinister aspect; who in the neighborhood
was known only as the She-Wolf because of the
solitude in which she lived in the depth of the
woods: who was accused every time an animal
fell sick in the stable of having used magic to
svenee herself on men and beasts-this old
WOMAN had all her maternal instincts aroused
by the little waif whom fate had brought TO
her DOOR She had found him one day, aban
doned by an unworthy mother, a few steps
away from her cabin. Without hesitation she
adopted him. He had grown up with her,
never quitting her, and the two beings isolated
from the rest of the world, had conceived
semi-savage affection for each other.
They had accused her of stealing the child.
They said she must have got enough money
out Of the mother TO raise the boy and also
10 support herself. They even hinted that it
was she who had made him an orphan-that
by searching her cabin and its environs the
body of the unfortunate victim might be found
buried in the ground.
Public rumor had obliged the Mayor to make
an examination; after which the suspicious of
most people Gained down, without much chang
ing their sentiments toward the old woman and
her adopted son.
She reviewed all the familiar details Of their
existence. She thought of Maels departure.
When the war had taken him it had seemed to

And the old woman became thoughtful.
"Well, have you seen this person? Has he
passed by here?"
The old woman shook her head in denial. She
stood before the door of her cabin and her big
body masked its sombre interior.
"No," she said; 81 haven't seen him. People
don't have the habit Of visiting me-"
THAT is true" answered the brigadier, with
a complacent smile; you scare people away,
instead of attracting them"
Then, tittering, he disappeared into the for

appeared She remained a long time at the
threshold of the hut Night had fallen. Sinis-
ter screeches reverberated through the woods.
Flying night birds skinned by the hovel. The
branches of the big trees creaked in the wind
and afar off dog howled lugubriously.
The old woman re-entered the hut, closed the
door, lighted smoking candle whose rays pro-
iected in curious fashion her huge shadow on

With this light she went toward the sleeping
man and pushed him with her foot. He slept on.
