Bank; Had Taken $500.

Culloden, Sept. 12-How the Mer-
chants and Planters Bank here recov-
cred $500 stolen last Saturday through
the failure of an attempt on the part
of Sam Barber, negro, to rob the
bank, yesterday became known when
it was stated Barber had been lodged
in Jail at Forsyth When the cashier,
Fred Sullivan found Barber trying to
get at the money till yesterday he had
the negro arrested and search of the
negro's house brought to light $500
stolen from the bank last week.
Nothing was said of the loss the
bank suffered last Saturday as officers
were at work on the case and hoped
to find the thief by keeping the loss
quiet. Apparently Barber, satisfied
the money he had taken last week
had not been missed, was preparing
to add further to his bank roll. A
slight noise attracted the cashiers at
tention while he was engaged in the
bank and he got to the back of the
cashiers cage in time to catch the
negro with his hand on the money till.

MORE SUFFRAGE E

While it might be too much to say that the defeat of the suffrage
amendment in the United States senate by one vote yesterday was due
to the disgraeeful tactics of a certain coterie of females who burned an
cagy of President Wilson in front of the White House the day pre-
yious. there is no doubt that the suffrage cause was done a great deal
of harm.
In no country in the world has the cause of women made such
progress as it has right here in America. State after state has granted
The franchise to both sexes and a federal amendment to the constitu-
ton making equal suffrage universal in this country has PASSED the
House. In the senate, however, that rock of conservatism, there is a
slight hitch, but ever there only n vote is needed to put the amend
= sent lcross. This vote, no doubt, can be secured within a reasonable
time through proper methods and the vast majority of women are sat
isfed to pursue those methods.
But, apparently, the suffrage cause is going altogether too smooth
ly to suit some females who r afraid they will be known as ladies'
They are doing their best to wipe ont all the respect for women that
man ever had. OF course, they are only making themselves ridiculous
and will never get anywhere with their methods. The best that can be
said of them is they are doing their best to defeat the very cause which
they claim to espouse.
