EXHIBIT RELICS
OF ROOSEVELTS
FRONTIER DAYS
CoIoneI's Chaps, Guns
and kr1iUes on VielU
in NelU York.

New York, March 1S.-A collec-
ton of guns, knives, chaps and
cooking utensils the original
equipment used by Theodore Roose-
velt, during his cowboy days in the
Dakotas-was placed on view here
today by the Roosevelt Memorial
association for the first time since
the collection was assembled
The souvenirs were presented to
the association recently by A. W.
Erickson of New York, who OBJ
tanned them from A. W. Merrifield
of SOmers, Mont, one of Colonel
Roosevelt's ranch partners in the
early SOS.
A relic of the coIonel's first ex-
perience in big game hunting, in
cluded in the collection, is an old
1850 calibre rifle, known to old
frontiersmen as a bear gun" It
is decorated with engravings of an
elk, bear and a Rocky Mountain
sheep.
Bill" Sewall, Roosevelt's old
guide and partner, who visited the
association while the relics were
being unpacke6, recognized this old
gun instantly.
Sewall Recognizes Gun.
That's the gun he used when he
shot his first bear" he exclaimed.
1T was a favorite with him, and
was the one he used on a thief
hunt, when he and l caught the
three men who stole his boat"
Next to the old rifle rested a
queer looking weapon which
Roosevelt had made to order, to
take on his first hunt for big game
in the Big Horn mountains. 1t is
a three-barreled combination shot
gun and rifle, and while old-timers
shook their heads and questioned
its usefulness, it proved to be an
effective instrument in the colo
nel's hands.
The first pair of chaps worn by
Roosevelt, back in the days when
he was hardly more than a ten
derfoot" compared with the ruddy
adventurers who made up the
wild west" of that day, is also on
view. They show hard usage, and
have a hole burned in one knee.
Campfire Burned Chaps.
ut was caused by us sleeping
out one night without bedding, and
he got too close to the campfire"
was Merrifield's explanation of the
rent.
With the chaps is an old hat,
sporting a braided horsehair band
made by one of the cowboys in
Roosevelt's outfit
The smaller relics contained in
the collection include a pocket COM
pass, carried by the colonel during
all his years in the west, silver
drinking cup made from the top of
a whisky flask, and a pair of nose
glasses, which. according to Mer-
rifield, the colonel always carried
with him in case of accidents, but
left on the ranch when he went to
New York.

San Francisco, Cal, March 1S.-
Members of the Holy Rosikrucian
church are awaiting word from
Washington today as to whether
they may continue their drive for
converts to a religious faith which
requires that each member shall
drink at least four ounces of good
wine three times a day.
The state prohibition director has
refused to acknowledge withdraw
ais from the bonded wineries and
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes
at Washington has been asked for
a ruling on the spirituous features
Of the Rosikrucian doctrine.
The encyclopedias which tell you
all about the Rosikrucians do not
mention anything of the alcoholic
requirements of the faith, but of
course the encyclopedias were
written in pre-Volsteadian days and
may not have regarded that tenet
as worthy of especial note. The
Volstead law specifically provides
for the use of wines for religious
purposes, just as it permits the use
of wines and whisky for medicinal
purposes. The prohibition authori-
ties have undertaken to limit strict
Iy the use of intoxicating beverages
for medicinal purposes, however,
and it remains now to be seen
whether they will attempt to re-
strict the use of wines in religious
observances.
Await Washington Ruling.

WILSON TO
BE SILENT
ON TREATY
Lawrence Says Four-Pow
er Pact Will Get
Senate 0. K.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
Washington, March 1S.-The four
power pact will be ratified by a
margin of from three to five.
The expected 18th hour pro-
nouncement from Woodrow Wilson
against the Pacific treaty will not
materialize, though it is known ne
absolutely is opposed to the prin-
ciple of the treaty.
This information obtained from
Democratic sources today amounts
to a concession that the treaty will
be ratified, though of course in
such a close situation a change of
a vote or two may alter the whole
aspect of things.
The attempt to draw Woodrow
Wilson into the controversy is one
of the interesting phases of the
treaty fight which has not yet been
fully disclosed. Division of opin-
ion has prevailed among Demo
cratic senators as to whether the
former president should express
himself on the question and assist
in defeating the ratification.
Some Democrats have felt that
Mr. Wilson ought to speak out
Others have counseled silence on
the ground that the former presi-
dent cannot change the situation in
the senate and that his public
speeches are a record of his atti-
tude anyhow.
Wilson Friends Divided.
One or two senators have had an
opportunity lately of learning Mr..
wilson's views but they have fail
ed to tell associates what to do
and the consensus on the Demo
cratic side of the senate is that
the former president had decided
to keep hands off his party col
leagues and let them decide the
question for themselves. Mr.. Will
sons silence has had the effect OF
dividing his friends. Some of
them. like Senator John Sharpe
Williams of Mississippi are going
to vote for the four-power treaty
because in their opinion it is an
alliance. Others will vote against
it because it appears to be an alli-
ance with a few powers as against
other nations. They favored an
alliance or league of all nations
but not a special combination in
which others could not even join

JAMES PATTEN

UictS.

Chicago, March 1S.-James A
Pa-ten, board of trade member and
wheat operator, last night defied a
number of hecklers and upbraided
union members in an address be-
fore the Evanston Women's club
He spoke as one of the directors OF
the citizens committee to enforce
the Landis award, which was sup
posed to have settled building con-
troversies in Chicago.
Mr.. Patten talked for more than
an hour With his fists clenched
he defied his taunters and told of
the effect of labor conditions in his
home. in which he said he had had
no interior decorating done in five
years.
I'm disgusted with the way
unions break their pledges" he
said. Il told Mrs. Patten Wed live

Between Kisses and interruptions
he said that % out of 80 unions
had agreed to accept the Lands
award and were in good standing
with the citizens committee.
Chicago" declared Mr.. Patten,
lis the worst town in America as
regards labor troubles. Well clean

that Armour & Co. had appropri-
ated $1,000, 900 to install a sprinkler
system in its stockyards plant /;
that it sought to have union men
do the work, but that "the unions

WOMEN INSIST
ON RIGHTS TO
SIT ON JURIES
Irafe Husbands Who
Object Are Facing
Losing Fight.
BY CAROLYN BROWN.
Consolidated Press Correspondent

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
Washington, March 1S.-A great
principle that was established at
the cost of much blood at the time
of the Magma Charta-the right to
sit on juries-will not easily be re-
linquished by women, notwithstand-
ing such inconvenience as irate
husbands who protest against their
wives being locked up for the night
with male jurors. and irritating
prosecuting attorneys who claim
that mistrialS too often result from
mixed juries.
IF jury service has been precious
to men during all these years since
the time of the Magma Charta il is
equally precious to women" said
Alice Paul of the National Womans s
party today.
At the various headquarters of
National WOmen's organizations the
countrywide reports of growing dis
satisfaction with women jurors has
commotion. For If there is one
thing that all factions of women en-
gagged in politics are united upon
it is the right of women to sit on
juries.
Same as Pullman Travel.
The objection that segregation of
the sexes at night caused the two
clusions with opinions so firmly
fixed that they remain deaf to argu-
ment and entreaty from the other
side also was disposed of.
Partitions could be erected in
the rooms provided for jurors with
an open space at the top. Any man
who objected to his wife spending
the night under such an arrange
ment might just as reasonably OBJ
ject to his wife travelling on Pull
man cars where fiimsy curtains are
the sole means of segregating the
sexes. We have as yet heard no
complaints about women being con-
taminated by riding Pullmans," said
the National Women's party head
quarters.
"The charge that women are
more lenIent with men than they
are with women defendants, she
continued, was refuted conspicu-
ousIy in the first Arbuckle trial
where a woman stood out for con-
viction. Men have also laid them
selves open to criticism for being
more lenient with the opposite sex.
Mixed Juries Best.
Women differ just as men do.
Some are inclined to be severe;
others merciful. AS a general prop
osition they are more inclined to
be compassionate than men. They
shrink from infiicting severe penal
ties. Generally speaking, women
are disposed to be severe in cases
involving offenses against children
that appeal to the maternal instinct,
such as cruelty towards the help
less. oppression and similar Of
fenses. Man would be more severe
in cases which appeal to the intel
lect rather than in the emotions. A
mixed jury would bring to the con-
siderations of the issues a deeper
understanding and a broader gen.
eral experience than could be ex-
pected from jury of either sex un-
aided by the other"
