Manager Allotted Him.

Owing to the limitations Of his
purse the manager Of a theatrical
show on the road travelled with a
show company.
One afternoon he called one of his
players to him and remarked:
Look here, Wellington, you'll have
to play three parts tomorrow night in
The Silent Foe'-Henderson, Uncle
Bill. and the Spider"
Cant do it," retorted Wellington,
briefly, but firmly.
Cant do 1t? Won't do 1t, you
mean" snorted the manager. "Why
won't you do it?"
Because it can't be done. No hui
man being could play these three parts
at the same time. In the third act Hen

SUFFRAGE LEADERS
TO BEGIN WARFARE
BOTH SIDES GIVE UP ALL HOPE
FOR EARLY DECISION BY
LEGISLATURE.
TEST STRENGTH OF SENATE
Developments Outside Of the Legisla-
ture Were Such as To Force the Al
tering Somewhat of Their
Plans of Campaigns.

Baton Rouge.-Both forces fighting
for ratification of the federal suffrage
amendment and those campaigning
against it gave up all hope OF an early
decision on the question by the Louis
lana Legislature and settled down to
siege warfare that both believe will
have to be carried on possibly two
weeks before the issue is finally set
tied.
The fight got actually into the Leg
isture for the first time with the intro
duction in the House OF resolutions
providing for ratification of the fed
eral amendment to the state cOnstitu-
ton giving women the right to vote.
The activities went no farther than
the mere Introduction, however, and
they will lay over for a week until
committees have been appointed and
the measure referred for considera-
ton and report
Developments outside of the Leg1s-
lature, however, after the introduction
Of the two resolutions. while none OF
them were spectacular, were such as
to cause both sides to consider alter
ing somewhat their plans of cam
paigns.
In this connection. the greatest IN
terest, perhaps, was in the report
which persisted throughout the day
that the naturalization forces are
planning to force a test of strength IN
the Senate on the federal amendment
in the belief that their strength in the
upper house Is such that display Of
1t would have q beneficial effect on
the House.
The plan according to the report,
and it was credited in well-informed
circles, included a special message to
the Legislature by Governor Pleasant
transmitting the federal amendment
for consideration. 1t was then plan
ned to have one of the naturalization
members Of the Senate endeavor to
force q test vote on the measur, prob
ably on a motion to suspend the rules
