 The women of the state are going in to defeat the republican machine which has been working against suf- frage and "big'' men capable of hold ing office, Mrs. Green stated. she will attend meeting of the suf- fragists to be held in Hartford this afternoon and some business of im- portance is expected to develop in regard to the campaign against the blacklisted G. O. r. followers. In her opinion there will be a big drive against the machine" which has hindered Connecticut in receiving the honor of ratifying the suffrage amend ment recently adopted.
 Some of the men blacklisted by the women, are the biggest men in politics in the state. One of them is. very popular in New Britain where he has been several times. These men fought suffrage in many ways and backed up the governor in his decision to re- fuse to call a special session of the

 Mrs. George Green of Kensington. chairman of the local woman suf- frage organization. was asked this morning If she had received from state headquarters. a blacklist of re- publicans seeking office against whom the women will direct their efforts. Mrs Green admitted that she had re- ceived such a list and did not hesi- tate to state that she thought the matter should have publicity.
 The blacklist was issued from Hartford. IL tells the women of the state that there are certain men seeking the nomination as governor on the republican ticket. Of these there are at least five or six who are absolutely undesirable to the women fin charge of suffrage in the state. Their names are in black type with "unfavorable" written opposite them.

THE UNREGENERATE

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
 N NE prisoner made his escape when N v the carbineers forced the inmates
 of the Fivizzano prison back to their cells after the earthquake had wrenched the doors from the hinges and cracked the walls. He was found at Gragnola robbing the dead and dying.
 Here in a nutshell is an Illuminating story. Any fiction writer with a lively imagination and a talent for depletion could elaborate it into a grim tale Strong ly written and given permanency in a volume of such examples of literature it would arrest the attention of, millions of readers. Without didacicism such a story would drive home a lesson to those who see in every guilty man who is in the clutches of the law one who may be reformed.
 It might be imagined that the shock of an earthquake spreading death and de- struction across the countryside. break ing the doors of a prison, would have pro- found effect upon thelmind of criminal The writer of uplift fiction would make the single escaped prisoner the hero Of the day.

 or course, there are many Russians who have made fortunes. just as there are many others who are squandering the last pittances of their wealth.. The markets are flooded with diamonds. all of which, of course, aire claimed to have been personal presents from the Czar to once aristocratic families. Heavy gold cigarette cases, engraved in Russian and with diamond settings, are found in nearly every shop. Gobe- lin tapestries are peddled along the street by people who once looked upon them in their own magnificent villas. Diamond necklaces, pearls, and costly bric- brac are on sale in dirty little bazars at outrageous prices. It is the proceeds from these luxuries that are giving the fleeing refugees money with which to return to their vodka and wild ''nuits blanches" both in Con- stantinople and in Batum.
 The town is filled with restaurants, all of which are called clubs, and supp posed to cater only to the elite in their prohibitive prices. The finest Russian artists furnish cabaret entertainment. The great Russian prirna donna, Mad anne Koschitz. who is now on the way to America, has just finished contract in Baum, where she gave several ben- eft performances for the refugees
 I said the prices in the restaurants were exorbitant. Can you in America compare your own high cost of living to butter at s1.o0 portion, to ice cream at $2 a plate, and roast chicken at from S5 to sS? Thirty-cent American sugar is nothing compared to a normal little dinner for one without wine at s7 or $S.

IS DANCING A MENACEs

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 The Rev. John Roach Straton, pastor of one of the leading Baptist churches of New York city. bitterly denounced the dance in general in his sermon last Sunday and strongly urged that 'prohi- btion" be extended to include dancing in all forms. The doctor first took up of Dancing Teachers that they were go- ing to purify the dance and in wig orous language declared that the task is impossible onSthe same grounds that you cannot purify poiecat."
 In his sermon the clergyman showed an astounding familiarity with the mo- mencla ture of the modern dance, em- bracing as it does much of the termin- ology of natural history, combined with some geography. bit of the language of flowers' and some unclassified, the whole resulting in an almost unintelli- gible hodgepodge. But when the danc- ing masters invaded the language of the church and as a propitiatory move " IAS NiS SlOhoiol, WHo III lllc ulaClpllHS of the church have always forbidden the dance, proposed to name a new dance the Wesleyan" the clergyman let loose the vials of his wrath. He feels that the time for the twenty-first amendment is hard upon us. That the doctor is not deficient in imagination is shown by the suggestion which he made that the Wesleyan Wiggle" would soon, In his opinion, be followed by The Episcopal Embrace" The Congregational Canter." The Presby- terian Promenade" and The John the Baptist Bounce"
 However the doctor is upduiy dis tressed. There was probably a lack of good taste in the suggestion to name a dance after one of the founders of the Methodist Church. and 1t is true that abuse of the dance has had cer- tain bad results, as has the abuse of every other activity in the world; but there Is little likelihood that the dance will ever become serious menace to public morality Dancing, like roller skating and other similar social exer- cises runs in cycles; and the present one is now nearing it's end. The advent of prohibition did more to take the curse from really harmful dancing en- vironment than could any number of laws against the dance itself. As the aftermath of the war subsidies and peo- pie regain that mental and spiritual poise which was so badly upset by the great war, the dancing "evil." in so far as 1t exists. will correct itself.

jured he would find an avocation, as King Solomon in the story by James Lane Al- len turned to grave digging and per- formed his first service to his fellow men when cholera had caused an exodous from Lexington and the vocational grave diggers had joined the refugees.
 A former convict contributed to a re. cent issue of the Atlantic Monthly an ar- ticle in which he asserted that those who believe in the possibility of the recon struction of a large proportion of crim- inals are ill error His contention was that criminals usually are sane. They are unregenerate men who find it difficult ir all cases. impossible in majority of instances, to withstand temptation when a good opportunity presents itself. Such one at any rate was the man who escaped from the tottering prison at Eivizzano and was found footing at nearby Gragnola. The earthquake passed over his head fig- uratively, while literally it caused an up- keaval of the ground beneath his feet. The shock did not awaken him spiritual ly. The spectacie of death and mortal in- jury round about did not move him to pity. He was merely criminal at largo avid of opportunity.
