Mrs. Roessing Sees Change
of Heart in Penn

-Frrm N. rrlsun. sur,.a J

Washington, Sept. "A positive ma
jority FOR the Federal suffrage amend
ment in the Congress TO be elected IN
November is said 70 be indicated BY
the replies so far to questions sent
out by the Congressional committee Of
the National American Woman Suf-
frage Association. This series Of ques-
lions has been or will be sent 20 every
candidate for either House or Senate.
While the process Of getting the
complete list Of candidates is slow, so
that only a comparatively few states
have so far been covered, total Of 1872
replies have already been received.
One hundred and twelve Of these, OF
nearly So per cent, declared them
selves in favor of woman suffrage, and
stated, first. that they would vote for
the Federal suffrage amendment, and,
second. that they would work 70 get a
favorable report on the amendment II
they should be on the committee which
has jurisdiction.
Pennsylvania, the first state 70 which
inquiries were addressed &c The Con-
gressional candidates, is still heavily
in the lead in number of replies, this
being due also 10 the large number Of
Congressional candidates in that state.
Owing 20 the lateness Of obtaining the
complete register Of the New York
candidates. only few inquiries have
been sent 20 candidates In that state
There have been forty-nine replies
70 date from Pennsylvania candidates.
Forty-six Of them answered favoraoly,
one declared his opposition 70 the Fed
eral amendment, while two we're nom
committal.
Mrs. Frank VI. Roessing. chairman
% the Congressional committee Of the
national organ izatiOn. - particularly
pleased with the returns from Penn
sylvania so far She took an active
part in the fight year ago TO bring
Pennsylvania into the suffrage column,
and She detects in these answers re-
ccived from Pennsylvania politicians a
tremendous change Of heart since that
time.
OF the thirty-nine replies 50 far re-
ceived from Illiris. one only is IN
favorable. and the women look upon
this candidate as 4 Congressional Kip
Van Wrinkle. II is true that women
cannot vote for Senator'S and Repre-
sentatives In Illinois. but national lead
ers are counting on the entire Illinois
delegation. Mrs. Roessing will con-
fer with the Illinois suffrsgists at the
time Of the national convention IN At
lantic City. September 5. when plans
will be made as to what action 20 take
with regard 10 this delinquent.
The Inquiries being sent 20 ONO
only a few days ago, there have been
only ten replies so far. OF these seven
are favorable, one opposed and two
non -cOmmittal
Seven favorable and no unfsvoraole
answers have been received from MIN
nesota so far. Michigan also has so
far sent in no unfsvorsble or nom
committal replies. Five candidates
have pledged their support.
From Wisconsin five replies have
been received TO date, four favorable
and one opposed. In these four last
mentioned states the questions were
sent out only few days ago.

the things that make life zip and ziz.
This is expository and not dramatic.
Do you remember how Pinero did Il :
Paula Tanquersy brought memories 20
her marriage, and in the beginning Of
the second act she is found sitting al
the breakfast table with her husband.
He reads letters and papers and what
not until at last he looks out the win

the clock, replies, Exactly six min

There is no such incisive touch 20
save Goodman's act. He gets a smash
for his final curtain, but it is too pal
pably theatrical 20 be effective with
any except those who check everything
with their hats and coats. Potter's
aunt has come 20 tell him that he must
return 70 New York 70 see mis- father,
who is i'll. Moreover, he must come
without his wife. Just why this condi-
ton is imposed Is not made clear. Il
seems merely prerogative Of the play
wright. Potter says he will not 90, but
MS wife. who has begun 20 fear he

steadily. and her words are thick and
lnarticulate as they were in the den
Of sam Shew Sing. The aunt leaves
hErriedly. The boy and mis- wife had
agreed that II whiskey or opium came
back into their lives everything should
be over between them. but Potter ia
not Of mind 20 enforce this bargain
Instead he cries that ne will stick. In
his agony he slashes the woman across
the back with a whip and she falls into
his arms, 20 weep and confess that she
was only shamming the drug effects 70
test him. With her permission the boy
goes back 10 make his peace with his
father.
The fifth episode finds him in the
library of his father The act would
have no worth except for the splendid
acting OF Edward Emery as the Wall
Street king. Emery makes an excel
lent captain Of finance. Evidently he
has prohted by his training. Last sea-
son he vas pirate.
Young Potter fits neatly into his
fathers business and proves in six
months trial that ne is done with his
old folles. Al the end Of the test
period 1t IL agreed that the question
w. -Ht ArNDSA4llON OF young fOLIeT
wife shall be considered. Through a
cheap trick It turns out that a more
or less conspicuous character who has
been hanging around in the play is a
detective. He has watched Marcelle,
tested her and tempted her and he re-
ports her well above the usual wifely
standards. So Marcelle comes home,
too.
Henry Hull is the scapegrace. Thu.
part fits him neatly, and much Of his
work is excellent, but he has not a
little 70 learn about emphasis Playing
at top range almost constantly. it is
difficult for him TO drive home a
climax. Mary Nash is capital through
out and Edward Emery contributes
greatly 20 the performance. Ernest
Lawford is the detective. He is good
but the part is not worthy Of his
powers. Sill, il might be difficult to
find anybody who could repeat his re-
current "desric' Of the second act so
effectively. Maud Campbell contrib
utes a brilliant bit as tough cabaret
singer and Bennett Southland IL an
eerie voice from smokers bunk in
the den.

II Mistress Helen L. Lion, Of Central

her girlish figure. Not that she cares
II is a matter Of supreme feline indif-
ference TO her. And as proof positive
thereof she brought into the world
early yesterday morning three healthy
lion cubs.
"Helen's Babies" now number thirty.
But families are institutions quite
worth while. Ask Bill Snyder, head
keeper Of the Central Park Zoo. The
grin upon his face yesterday registered
continuous elation. Bill knows that
lion cubs are worth 5000 apiece.
Bill. incidentally. is taking 1t very
calmly now. He and George Sichert,
who chaperons the lion house, were
present at the great occasion. Their
worries are over. They do not have TO
name those cubs.
Ward to Name Cubs.
That solemn duty falls to CABOT
Ward. Commissioner Of Parks. And
Il. II be stated that it is no easy task
20 name a lion. The chosen monicker
must be timely; it must be virile' 1t
must be specifically lionesque. The
roor little cub must be saved from en-
barrassment in later years.
Look. for instance. at the nar.es OF
some Of the exclusive residents OF tne
Certral Park section. There Is Dewey,
