THOMPSON WORE 1T
Kansas Senator Displayed Suffragette
Sunf1ower Today.


Washington, Sept. 26.-Anti-suf-
frage orators set out to block a senate
vote today on suffrage. They planned
to hold the senate in session until a
late hour with long speeches against
the Susan B. Anthony amendment and
then get recess until tomorrow.
So close is the line up for and
against suffrage that the balance may
swing either way over night, altho
both sides claim a scant margin today.
Realizing that twelve hours delay
may cost them the victory towards
which they have been working in the
senate since 1878, suffrage leaders
urged all their friends to refrain from
speaking. By leaving the field en-
tire1y to the "antis,'' suffragists still
hoped to obtain a vote before adj
journment.
Friends of suffrage were unable,
however, to call off Vardaman, Mis-
sissippi, who insisted on delivering a
speech. prepared months ago. .Varda-
man urged adoption of an amendment
to bar negro women from voting and
declared that with that change the
suffrage amendment should pass. The
| yellow roses and sunf1owers of the
suffragists and the pink roses of the
ants filled senate galleries with
bright color.
On the senate floor, Thompson
Kansas, wore a huge sunflower, while
Wadsworth, New York, displayed the
anti rose. Ants tried to get Baird
| New Jersey, who has been wavering
| into their camp by sending to his desk
a pink rose bud. But Baird, after gin
| Serly lingering the flower, laid it care
| fully in far corner of his desk.

JONES STILL In K. C.
Another Revolver Battle in North
End Street.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 26.-Police
believed today that Dale Jones, rob-
Der and bandit leader. is still in Kan
sas City. Report made today of re-
voiver battle last night between a
motorcycle policeman and two men in
a stolen automobile Vim the northeast
part of the city, gave added credence
to this theory.
After giving chase. Motorcycle Po-
liceman Prick overlook the car when
it stopped because of engine trouble.
Two men got out and opened fire with
revolvers. Prick returned the fire and
the men fled.
Because of their readiness to shoot,
authorities believe the men were mem
bers of the bandit gang, or one of them
probably Jones himself.

MAY CLOSE THEATERS
Public Meetings in Boston To Discuss
Epidemic Danger.

Boston, Sept. ga public meeting
to discuss plans for combating in
fluenza in New England was held here
today. The closing of theaters and
other public gathering places was
among the questions taken up.
An urgent appeal for volunteer
physicians and nurses sent out from
the state house resulted in many
offers of assistance but it was said to-
day that the, need was still great.
Much interest was manifest in ex-
periments being made with a new in
fluenza vaccine produced at the Tufts
college laboratory. Nurses at the Bos-
ton City hospital and Tufts medical
students school have been inoculated
and officials said that day or two
would show definitely whether the
product would be effective in prevent
ing further spread of the epidemic.

HUNS DESERT ARMY
Three Officers and 1O2 Men Slip Into
British Lines.

London, Sept. 26.-Three German
officers and 102 men deserted west of
st. Quentin last night and slipped
across into the British lines.
An order issued by Won Ludendorf
spoke of increased complaints from
the men on leave at home creating an
unfavorab1e impression by statements
bordering on high treason, and incit-
ing to disobedience."
Some of this is due to the natural
irritation of the soldiers atsseeing the
superficial WEAKNESS and dependency
which unfortunately is so widely prev
alent at home" the order continues.
