They cannot declare for prohibition because they have pronioition. They must therefore ask the people to reward them for what they have done. for their yeoman service in the vineyard of the Lord: or, if ever the Lord in these piping days of peace is denied the possession of a vineyard for what they have un- selfishly done on divine highways and byways of virtue.
 And each is suffragist. This fact would greatly perturb the fair sex of the state were they possessed of the right to vote. Their affection would be di- vided between the man who would be able to write very stringent laws for them, laws by means of which to pun ish and humiliate their enemies, and the man who could entertain them with Johnsonian wit and quaint sparks of bu- collie yarning. and the soldier, resplen- dent in uniform with gaudy sash sus- taining a mighty sabre.

Striking Actors Are
 Sued For S5OO,OOO

NEW YORK. Aug. 19.-For having joind the actors strike which has closed 15 theaters in this city, Eddie Canter and other stars of Ziegfeld's F'ollies, were named today as defend ants in suits for $500,000 damages, brought by Zeigfeld Follies, Inc.
 Summons served on Canter, Gus Van, Joseph Schenck and Johnnq Dooley were filed. Names of the other defendants were not made public.
 The Zeigfeld stars were at first re- strained from walking out when Flor eng Zeigfeld obtained an injunction, forbidding the Actors Equity associa- tion ito interfere with" the produc- tion. When this injunction. however, later was vacated, the stars joined their fellow actors.
 Rumors that managers might flock out" actors in all theaters as the be- ginning of an economic war on the striking stage stars were denied today by Will Page.
 The actors association announced it had been advised by the United States board of business agents of the New York Building Trades that the latter's members will be requested not to at tend any theaters controlled by mem bers of the Producing Managers Pro- tective association
 The actors also said they had re- ceived pledge of support from Lew Field, asserting he is not member of the managers Organization and that his company had Equity contracts.

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 19.-Francis Ouimet, of Woodland, risked his health to struggle through the 36-hole qualifying round of the Ma tional Amateur Golf championship at the Oakmount county club, in order that he would not lose the opportun. ity, he has waited for more than four years-another chance to win the amateur championship.
 Ouimet was barred from amateur golf in 1916 by the officials of the U. s. Golf association, who ruled that he was a professional, because he had entered into the sporting goods busi- ness. Later when he went into serV- ice, he was re-instated and this tournament is the first opportunity he has had to regain the title he once held.
 The Boston golfer was forced to play in the rain most of the way. A number of times he swayed after hit ting his shots, and he was so weak on the final nine holes of the after noon play that he toppled his tee shots at the 13.
