to accept the pardon. Mr.. Brownlow
asked Corporation Counsel syme to
give an opinion on this point, and the
districts legal adviser concurred IN
the view expressed by the Occoquan
official
In the meantime, Mr.. Malone. Mr..
Hopkins and Mr.. McCurday had
reached Occoauan and gone into con-
ference with the prisoners AS soon
as Mr.. Whitaker was informed of
CORPORATION Counsel Syme's opinion,
he informed the meeting Of the pris-
orers and their advisers that they
were free to accept or reject the pres
idents pardon. He also told the suf-
fraeettes that their parleys could not
be continued indefinitely and that he
must have their decision by o'clock.
Mr.. Malone interposed an objection
to a time limit being placed upon
their consideration of the matter.
IT am not dealing with you, Mr..
Malone" retorted the superintendent.
II am dealing with these women, and
they must make up their minds by 4
o'clock II they expect to leave here
today"
Mr.. Whitaker then returned to his
Office to await their action. 1t Is I'M

the pardon was not accepted by Il
o'clock he would keep the women in

some authority to release them.

tive today will take SIS men from
New Britain, unless it can be proven
that more than 1927 have already en-
listed from this city. The gross quota
OF enlistments from here has been
placed at $40. That means this
number Of men would have to be
called provided there had been no en-
listments up to this time. The state
officials give New Britain credit for
S27 enlistmenB in the army and the
National Guard. That number sub
tracted from the gross quota, $40,
leaves 613. If 1t can be ascertained
for certain that more than 327 have
enlisted voluntarily the number OF
drafted men will be materially short
ened. 1t would seem then to the In

clan for New Britain Is correct. and

upon . censorship that will prevent
their names being published and
their activities haunted before the
reading public of this country. A sup
preston of their pictures would like

at the White House.
Publicity Is what these women want.
So long as they have their names be-
fore the public they care not what
happens. "A sentence of sixty days
in tho workhouse Is just what they
want provided a bevy Of reporters
flocks around the barred windows
and gives vainglorious "write-ups"

dons. They are not interested in par
dons, they are not Interested in the

they are not interested in anything
or anybody but themselves and pub
licity.
If little group Of wilful men was
guilty Of the offenses charged against
these women, tormenting the Pres
ident OF the United States in time Of
war. these men would suffer at the
hands Of an irate mob some day in
front OF the White House. Being
women, these notoriety seekers have
come to the point whore they believe
themselves privileged characters.

WHERE WE BEAT LONDON,

John Galsworthy is Londoner.
He became famous as the author Of
great play, Justice" He now bids
for fame in another way Having
nothing else to do save study nature,
Mr.. Galsworthy took a week off in
low citizens Of London. Evidently he
stood on a few street corners Of old
Lunnon town and this Is what he re-
ports:
"Out Of 1850 passersby, women and
men Nncluding soldiers), observed in
perhaps the best districts Of London
st. James park. Trafalgar Square,
Westminster bridge and P1ccadilly-in
May OF this year. only $40 had any
pretensions to not being very plain or
definitely ugly-not one In i've. And
out Of the 80 who passed this quite
low standard OF looks perhaps one In
thirty had what might be called
beauty-say, one out Of each $50 in
ALL"
After that observation by q true OBJ
server London should indeed feel I'M
comfortable Four out of flve men
and women who live in the city on the
Thames are definitely ugly; only one
in $50 is beautiful. No mention Is
made OF how many Of the men are
handsome. Since the adjective beau
tiful is usually and properly applied
granted that John Galsworthy could
not find even one handsome man In
London on his rounds Of the town. We
can even beat that in New Britain

potato blight. This article states that
the blight, which spreads with amising
rapidity In potato fields, especially in
damp, fogRy weather. can be easily
recognized by dark yellowtshb brown
spots turning to black which appear
on the leaf Of the potato plant. These
spots spread to the stems and finally
to the tubers. The attack Of tho blight
Is generally during the period of bios
soming or a little later, as at present.
Furthermore. the spots grow in size
and spread. The leaves wither and
the stalks become almost bare and If
there are many plants in a field which
are affected the potatoes give off q
fetid odor. Another way to distin-
guish this blight is to inspect the
under side Of the leaves where, under
the blight spots, may be seen q whit
ish fuzz-like deposit,
The report Of tho American Steel
and Wire company recommends a
mixture with which to spray the
plants. The recipe as given states that
hVe pounds OF copper sulphate dis
solved In about 20 gallon Of water
and mixed, with five pounds of quick
lime dissolved in 30 gallons Of water
may be used to make this mixture.
the directions advise stacking five
pounds Of freshly burned Quicklime in
small quantity of water and, when
Stacked, fill the tub, while constantly
stirring with the paddle. The actual
spraying Of the vines is left fuch to
the discretion of the user, but it is
recommended that both sides Of the
leaves and stems be covered with the
mixture. 1t is said that this spraying
delays the ripening of the potato but
increases tho ultimate yield.
