Miss Amidon is one q, Ah,

Miss Amidon is one OF THE
youngest suffrage workers. She
had her early political training
with Miss jeanette Rankin, con-
gresswoman from Montana. When
Miss Rankin was campaigning in
'i913 for suffrage in North Da-
kota, she took Miss Amidon with
her. The little assistant made 81
street speeches the summer fol-
Lowing lher tour with Miss Rankin.
Miss Amidon was graduated
from Barnard college in 1915, and
Is q member Of Phi Beta Kappa
fraternity. During her senior year
al college she assisted in the New
York campaign for suffrage. II
was the failure of that campaign
which caused Miss Amidon to be-
come discouraged with the state
by-state methods of securing suf-
frsge, and which resulted in her
affiliation with the National Wo-
mans party.
Miss Amidon will speak at the
annual meeting Of the Minnesota
branch of the National Woman's 8
party July ii at St. Paul. Fol-
lowing the meeting tea will be

WAHPBTON WINS
FROM HANKINSON
last sunday Afternoon on island
Park BY Score of
9 70

Hankinson came over Sunday
TO fill an engagement, engaged by
the Wahpeton Baseball manage
-ment to do unto them battle, on
the sod where battles have been
fought, won and lost to the home
. aggregation. Hankinson's team
was in fact, a makesihift, to GER
tain degree, and according to-
Capt. Denning of the visiting ag-
gregation, a much stronger team
will soon be in trim and many in
teresting battles will henceforth
take place.
But to get hack to Sundays
game, it will take a much strong
er bunch to make it interesting.
Hyperion who is doing the twirl-
ing for the local horse hide bust
ers, struck out twelve men and
allowed one hit, but issued six
free trips.
Wahpeton gathered in six runs
in the first inning on five hits
E walk with two errors. The num-
ber of hits credited were twelve.
Helm, who did the twirling for
Hankinson, warmed up as the
game progressed and after the
opening ode. made it real inter-
esting for: the boys. Albers, the
old Hankipson standby, was be-
hind the bit for them and caught
a good game.
The local boys all showed up
we'll and the hitting supremacy of
the day belongs to Watson, sec
ord baseman and Larson, catcher.
Also E. Butte. Watson gathered
three blows and Larson and E.
Butte two apiece.
From and including the next
gene the box scores of each game
will be published.
