WOMEN FACTOR IN
 ENGLISH ELECTION
Fair Voters Decision Nov. 15 May Decide Fate of Lloyd George.

London, Nov. 10.-Women will play most important part in the English election on November 16; in fact wom- en may decide the election
 There are practically 9OOO,OOO reg istered women voters in England The balance of this vote may swing vic tory once again into the hands of Lloyd George or it may cement the strong position of Bonar Law.
 Strange to say, the best judgment is that the vote of women will have no effect upon the return of the laborites. or at least no determining effects r
 An analysis of the Newport by-elec- ton, which caused a Conservative vic tory that threw Lloyd George out of power, shows an interesting situation with regard to the votes of women. It is stated authoritatively that the pre- ponderance of women who voted for the Conservative candidate were wom- en who were the wives of trade union ists, women whose husbands were sup porting the laborite candidate Politi- cal students argue that this shows one of two things-either women are opposed to a labor government, or that the laboring men are themselves afraid to risk a government of their own and are urging the women of their households to neutralize the eff fects of their vote by voting in opposi- tion.
 There are some 50 women who are standing for election. but it is doubtful if more than mere handful of these will be returned. The real weight of the women's vote will be felt, however in the Conservative and Liberal par ties. and it's a fair bet that Lloyd George will get the bulk of the female vote.
 If Lloyd George gets the female vote he may be expected to move back to No. 10 Downing street within a few months and perhaps even within few weeks

WIFE OF BLIND
 FRENCH SOLDIER
 STOLEN FROM HIM

Paris, Nov. 10-G. N. s.)-A story of a wife, stolen from the Gyeside of blind soldier, who had sacrificed his dight for France upon the field of battle and the murder of the man to whom she had yielded her guilty love, was received here today from Avignon. It is a tale that reads as though it might have been lifted from the pages of De Maupassant:
 re. in his humble home at Avignon takes the hand of his four year old daughter and whispers to her:
 Daughter, get my old army pistol out of the drawer. Are you sure it is loaded? Take my arm and lead me to the home of Joseph Audenham. When we get there, if you hear your mothers voice lead me directly in front of her. If she is not there be sure to place me directly in front of Joseph Audenham.'
 Led by his little daughter, who trip ped gaily at his side, Fabre reached the home of his rival. His wife was not there. The baby daughter, obey front of Audenham. Fabre spoke. Audenhan replied. Fabre fired. Aud enham fell dead.
 Then the baby girl, mortified with terror, led her father back to his home, where he was arrested, repent ing his act in the arms of his wife and daughter
 Fabre had been blind since the war. With the subtle sense of the blind, he noted a change in his wife's conduct and then ofhcious neighbors confirmed his suspicious. When he was led off by the Gendarmes stunbl- ing down the roadway he exclaimed

 GROWING WILD
 NEAR CHICAGO


 Chicago, Nov. 10.-The debated question of whether rattlesnakes grow wild in the vicinity of Chicago has been settled by Dr. Frank M. Wood of Sciences, in Lincoln Park. with the acquisition of a specimen captured this summer in the sand dunes at Mil Ter Beach, near Gary, Ind.
 The rattler, a three-foot female with six rattlers and a button, belongs to the prairie type, or Crotalus Conf1uen- tus. Shortly after reaching the mu- scum she gave birth to seven young snakes. Two died, one escaped, and the other four. now some six or eight inches long, already have demonstrated on white mice that they are as deadly venomous as their mother.
 After completing a study of the hab- It's of the mother and her young Dr. Woodruff plans to dispatch them and make plaster casts for the exhibit of reptiles from the environs of Chicago.

THE ROWLAND DRY GOODS CO.

'fThe creation of the Irish Free State came so suddenly" he said, that most of those who were anxious to return to Ireland have not had time to wind up their affairs and get started Many do not care for trans Atlantic voyages in January and Feb ruary. There are several big ships which now stop at Queenstown, but the travel has not been extremely heavy so far.
 There are reports that new lines are to be started for passenger ships to run directly between this country and Ireland without other stops, and there are preparations for a great movement to Ireland this spring and summer, but the matter is somewhat problematical. Many hope to obtain cheap passage to Ireland, believing that there will be low rates later, but this is doubtful, in view of the high cost of operating ships at present.
 There will probably be Jess and constantly diminishing Irish tnamigra- tfon, but for many years Irish will be coming over to join relatives in this

 HANOVER TOWNS

Berlin. Feb. 20-North and East Hanover. from Oldenburg to Bruns- wick, have been invaded by an army of gypsies, travelling in bands com prising sometimes 100 wagons and camping in fields and woods. They invade the market places in towns and on market days crowd out Ger man vendors.
 The authorities in the several com munities are taxed beyond their re- sources to control these hordes and prevent them from beating the Ger mans in trades. at which they are adopts. Members of the Reichstag have asked the government what steps were to be taken to drive out or con trol the unwelcome guests.
 Where they have come from the authorities do not know, but many of them are rich, travel in state in lux urious wagons, equipped with rich oriental rugs and fine furnishings. and ice-boNes in which there are always supplies of good wines. liquors, and costly champagnes.
 Men of these gypsy bands have adopted modern European apparel, but the women cling to the quaint and picturesque original costumes. The young girls are beautiful.

IRISH IMMIGRANT
 FAST DISAPPEARING
Effect of Establishing Irish Free State Already No ticeable, Says Congress man Siegel.

The Irish immigrant. who has been a picturesque and important factor in American life since Colonial days has already become practically a thing of she past, although the Irish Free state is scarcely a. month old. accord ing to Congressman Isaac S1egel, a member sof the House Committee on Immigration.
 'HThe effect of the establishment of the Irish Free State is already notice able" he said Irish immigration has already fallen off to practically nothing.
 'sThere will probably be much go- ing to and fro between this country and Ireland, but if the Irish Free State has the success that is expected, Irish immigration is probably at an end"
 Irish immigration has been low at all times since 1914 and was pract1- caIly cut off for considerable periods during the period of war when Eng land permitted no ab1elbodfed man to leave the island and after the war during the worst of the Irish troubles. One indication of the falling off of Irish immigration has been in the d. minishing proportion of Irish names among the appointeeS to the Police Department and the var1egated cos mopolitanism of the lists of new can didates-
 There have been a great number of inquiries for passage to Ireland during the last month, but the sail ings have been comparatively few, ac- cording to an official of the White Star Line.

Writers of the most exciting movie scenarios have been outdone by sfhe writers on London newspapers, who have described night raids by MorTnons on Western rancN>s and fights between MornonS, who were carrying off the women folk of ranchers, and m ounted cowboys.
 Salt Lake City is described as a den of iniquity, entirely in the clutches of the Mormons, and there have even been descriptions Of precautions taken by the Mormons to prevent the escape of women from Salt Lake.
 Though taunted on all sides by most sensational statements, the heads of the Mormon Church in London have been unwavering and have confined their replies to t17e simple statement that polygamy is no longer practiced by those of the Mormon faith

HOW WILL ELSIE BE KNOWN WHEN
 SHE VOTES?

Hartford. Conn, Feb. 2O-Elsie H11l, who recently welded Prof. Leavftt, was so well known in this state as a suffragist leader and worker, that the announcement that she would retain her maiden name though married, attracted state wide attention. It set lawyers and others at work read ing statutes old and new, to see if there was anything in them which would prevent Elsie Hill from using her maiden name in Connecticut though married.
 The best legal opinion in de- fault of an actual court decision is that a woman may take any name she chooses provided there is no intent to defraud.
 There are no written words which require a woman in this state to take her NuSband's name after marriage. Lawyers, how ever, say that it will have to be determined if a married woman retaining her maiden name can vote under the maiden name or obtain a passport from the gov 'ernment.
