 PRESIDENT |S DEAD
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON. May 19-Mrs Bel va A. B. Lockwood the first woman admitted to practice before the su- pieme court, a pioneer in the woman l suffrage movement and the only woman who ever was a candidate | for president of the United States, | died today after long illness, aged | S6 years.
 Mrs. Lockwood had herself told the anecdote of how she became one of | the first women in this country to fight for eqnaI rights. A widow at 24 years df age, with a child, she was | teaching school in her native town, | Royalton, N. Y., at a salary of only S3 a week. Men teachers, doing the same work, were getting twice as much, or more.
 'I kicked to the school trustees, ? she said. T went to the wife of the Methodist minister. The answer got opened my eyes and raised my dander. She said: I can't help you; you cannot help yourself, for it is tfe way of the world
 The then apparent hopelessness of womans cause so aroused her that she fought for more than fifty years against the exclusion of women from rights which men enjoyed. She for tified herself with 2 collegiate educa- tion at Genessee college, in the days when higher education was rare among women, and for successive periods was preceptress of seminaries at Lockport Gainesville and Oswego N. Y.
 In each place she was leader among womep's societies. and when at the close of the Civil war she re- moved to Washington she was deter i mined to become a lawyer and win a place before the bar. In the mean time she married again, to the Rev Ezekiel Lockwood, a Baptist clergy man in Washington-who died nine years later in 1877. Her first hus- band had been Uriah H. McNan, a young farmer in Royalton.
 Soon after her second marriage she began study at the National Uni versiry of law, and upon graduation after spirited controversy. was ad- | mitted to practice before the su- preme court of the District of Col umbia.
 T never stopped fighting" she said My cause was the cause of thous- 1 ands of women. 1 drew up a bill ad hitting women to practice at the bal t'i the United States Supreme court and l had it passed
 This victory made her widely ac- claimed She herself was the firs woman to take advantage of the new law, and at the age of 49 was ad- mitted to the highest court in tht | land.
 She won several notable legal bat, ties, including the case of the East err Cherokees vs. the United States

DON'T SPILL THE BEANS

I'm weary of the noise and fuss
 That fret me every day, The while I do bandits deeds
 Or pause, betimes, to pray On every side I hear the cry
 That frights me in my dreams, Be careful what you're doing there. Or else you'll spill the beans." There was a time when such a cry Was full of point and pith, But soaring prices have reduced It's wisdom to a myth. The time has long since passed away From these terrestrial scenes When I would take a single chance At spilling of the beans. I'm not a boob or millionaire,
 Nor yet a child in teens, That I should handle recklessly
 Such priceless gems as beans. Once 1 could eat and be content,
 In days when clad in jeans But woes and sorrows threaten now The man who spills the beans. Of all things in the market
 That 1 can ill afford To spill, are these luxurious beans Which up to heaven have scared. I'd just as soon eat peacock's tongues The food of kings and queens, As dare invite the curse of Fate
 By spilling of the beans.

The reichstag is true, has the power of the purse but such has been the ascendancy of the chanceors that they have had little difficulty in securing such grants they de- sired.
