There were not seven days in April that one could plow a furrow unless they plow ed the land too wet.

He has been so good to us, and we can get along and make a living If we only half try. He will give us the rain and the sunshine, and we should rejoice and go ahead with a thankful heart. DISCOMD AMOVG THE DEMOC&ATB I am not surprised that there is dis cord in the camp on the tariff question. I did not think those free traders were sincere. The tariff is a blade that can cut both ways. While Dr. Felton was in congress he delivered a speech on the tariff. It was headed. “A Judicious Tariff—The Hope of the South.” It was good reading then, it would be good reading now. But he got well abused for it—and the free traders yelped at his heels. Now we are told that Speaker Champ Clark, and the all-powerful Underwood, the headlight on ways and means, are both going around saying the Democrats will lose several states if the tariff on wool is raised. So here we go! Why not tell the truth and the facts? We have allowed dogs to kill out sheep culture ’in the south—the tariff on wool is all the protection our wool growers have against cheap South American sheep. Wool is high-priced because we have had some regard for our struggling wool growers, who will go out of business necessarily when the wool from South America comes in free of duty. Then wool will be as high as ever, but we have put our own folks out of business. Why not be truthful ano sincere? TAKING KEEHTEHEST IN SUFFRAGIST WIDE More Than 2,000 Women to Join in March and Subse quent Demonstration (By Associated Freu.) NEW YORK, May 6 —The ranks of New York women suffragates advo cates were all agog today in preparation for this afternoon's demonstration in aid of the suffragist cause, to take the form of a parade down Fifth avenue. More than 2,000 women were expected to join in the march in protest against non-action by the legislature on tbe bill giving the ballot to their sex. The leaders of the j demonstration hoped td make it one of the biggest of its kind that has occurred in this coun try. Practically all the suffragate so cieties in the city were represented in the movement Women of wealth, so ciety women, working girls, profes sional women, all have been participat ing in the work of preparation and there was an early gathering at the various society headquarters of womankind ready to take part in the march. Weather indications were that there would be no spoiling of feminine finery nor marring of the pageant by rains Accompanied by bands and interspersed with appropriate floats and with “votes for women" and other banners flying, the procession of women and their dele gations of supporters from men's organ isations will move from Fifty-seventh street dwn (Fifth avenue 'to Union Square, where exercises will be held and speakers will address the throngs The parade will be formed in eight di visions, with bands heading delegations from various states and with huge floats illustrating the old-time position of wo men who did not care to vote. Another float shows women of colonial days as home makers and house keepers. Aft er that, the floats exhibit women in tne many branches of business activity of today. Among the odd occupations of wo «men represented will be women automo bile chauffeurs, women athletes, women aeronauts and women explorera Most of the women franchise organi sations in this part of the country have taken part in the demonstration, orie of the exceptions being the Political Equal ity league, of which Mrs. O. H. P. Bel mont is president. BOSTON WOMEN SEEK TO GET WOMAN APPOINTED BOSTON, May X—Declaring that every man who has held the office of police com missioner here has been a failure, a com mittee of Boston women have petitioned Governor Foss to appoint a female com missioner. The committee headed by Mrs. Charlotte Smith, president of the Wom an's Homestead association, claims to represent 50.000 women. If the appoint ment of a woman police commlssoiner is impossible, the committee wants women police inspectors, and if this, too. is im possible. they want the present police force increased, reformed and regulated. IRONING BOARD SAVES MANY PERSONS IN BLAZE NKW YORK. May X—An ironing board placed between the roofs of two buildings saved the lives of 50 persons who were trapped at an apartment house fire in uptown district early today. The tenants were all asleep when the fire was discovered at the foot of the main stairs. Their escape was cut off, but a woman from an upper floor carried her ironing board to the' roof and stretched it across the narrow gap be tween the apartment house and the ad joining building. Within a few minutes after the last person had crossed the narrow footway to safety the flames burst througl) the roof on which they had been standing.

It was an astounding declara tion. quite In the same key with her mknner of yesterday, when she went into a police station and informed the sergeant: “I’ve just shot and killed my husband.'' She wants to be punished, too, before the birth of her child. It would have been easier to commit suicide, she ex plained, but In that case the husband she loved would have foresworn his re ligion for the woman who had supplant ed her. Rather than see that, she killed him, and rather than add the crime of suicide to murder, she chose to give herslf up and let the justice of man take its course. "I hid the revolver in the folds of my dress,” said the little woman, "and came upon George as he was hunting fr letters I had found, letters that told me the other woman's name, the letters he had forgotten. “He said it was true, but that he could not account for It. We talked of her. George loved me through it all, but when he was with her, he said, he for got his country, his religion, his wife and his coming child. I fell on my knees and asked him if thepe was no chance for us to be happy together again. He pushed me off. Then I shot him. As he lay on the floor I stooped and kissed his lips. Then I gave myself up.” Mrs. O’Shaughnessy was committed to the Tombs without ball. Her husband was a store cashier only 21 years old and the girl whom he loved better than his wife and his God is but 18. She is heartbroken. O'Shaughnessy told her he was unmarried.

FIFTY YEARS AGOTODAY April 21, 1861—The Famous Frigate Constitution Was Saved From Possible Damage of Logs by Men of the Bth Massachusetts Regiment, in Annapolis Harbor Troops Pass to One Side of Baltimore “~ "I 'T*Tx W \ TBIGATE CONSTITUTION A Soldier-Bailor* from Marblehead and (Gloucester helped work the old ship into deep water at Annapolis and she shortly took th« oadsts of ths naval academy to Newport, the academy's seat during the war. Fifty years ago today the famous old frigate Constitution was saved from pos sible damage or loss by the arrival at Annapolis of a regiment of volunteers bound for Washington, the Eighth Mas sachusetts. Lying in the waters of a border state, in which the public mind was greatly inflamed because troops destined for the federal capital had been moved the day before across its soil, the old ship might easily have been cut adrift or set qn fire by a boat load of men from Balti more. The people of Annapolis were greatly wrought up by the reported approach of Yankee troops. Their sympathies were largely with the soutl}. At the naval academy Commandant George S. Blake had no adequate force with which to protect federal property. The Constitution lay off the academy with a small crew on board. In command of Lieut. G. W. Rodgers. Only proper force afloat was needed by friends of the south to seise her and add her to the navy that the Confeder ate states hoped soon to bring Into The hour was a critical one in the long record of the old ship. Her commander was prepared to scuttle her and see her settle, a useless hulk, into the mud of the Severn, before he would surrender her. Thu< danger beset the old ship from without and within. The Massachusetts regiment arrived at Annapolis in the small hours before dawn on the 21st on board al large rail road car ferryboat, the Maryland, that had brought them from Perryville on the Susquehanna,' it having been found they could not march through Baltimore. BOARDING THEk CONSTITUTION. When the Maryland came to anchor, near the Constitution, the town was light ed up and wide awake. When daylight had come and Gen. B. F. Butler, commanding the Eighth learn ed of the small force on board the frigate, he offered the services of some of his men to help protect her and work her ovft of the river to deep water, so that she could sail for the north. Two companies were detailed from the regiment to board the ship and reinforce her crew. In their ranks were men from Salem, Lynn. Gloucester axid Marble head, waterside communities. In which every man knew something about ships. The soldier-sailors at once set about assisting the crew in an effort to get the ship out of the harbor. She was aground, and could not at once be moved. The Maryland had also grounded. The arrival of the steamer Boston from Philadelphia with the Seventh regiment of New York on board afforded a means of freeing the gallant old ship from the mud, and under tow of the Boston she was taken out over the bar, to sail for the nofth. The handy young men from Gloucester way helped bend the sails of the frigate, eating the while rations from her stores that included hard tack stamped 1848. the year It was baked and raw pork that had been packed the same year. BALTIMORE AVOIDED While the incident of saving from pos sible damage or loss the veneraole old ship revered by Americans, north and south, was picturesque, It was less sig nificant thgn the arrival itself of the first volunteers to use the new route from the north to the federal capital. This showed not only that there was no desire to Invite bloodshed in Balti more by marching troops through the city, but also that there was a road open front the north that might be fol lowed without unduly arousing the feel ings of the people of Maryland’s chief city. The route followed by the Eighth Mas sachusetts and Seventh New York was the safest one from Philadelphia to Washington, since the way through Bal timore was no longer open. \ The Eighth Massachusetts regiment, ( which had left Boston for Washington on April 18, had been ordered to proceed through Baltimore. The regiment reach ed Philadelphia on the evening of the 19th . When General Butler reached Philadel phia dn the 20th he was Informed by Samuel M. Felton, president of the Phil adelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore rail road, that the route to Baltimore was no longer open, as the bridges between the Susquehanna river and Baltimore had been burned the night before, fol lowing the clash between the Sixth Mas sachusetts and tbe inhabitants of the city that had resulted in 16 deaths. NEW ROUTE TO CAPITAL. General Butler spoke impetuously ot marching to the city, of laying in ashes any house from which a shot might be' fired at his men, of leaving his bones, if need be, in Baltimcre. Mr. Felton persuaded him that as an open route lay before him, byway of Annapolis, he would do well to follow it. Conferences were held between Gen eral Butler. General Patterson, of the Pennsylvania militia; Admiral DuPont., | commandant of the Philadelphia navy | yard, and others. The railroad president had devised a plan for moving the regiment around Baltimore by water from Perryville, on ‘ the Susquehanna. The company’s big car-ferry boat Maryland was ready for use as a transport. General Butler accepted the plan, and i on the afternoon of the 20th the Eighth Massachusetts arrived by cars at Perry ville and marched on board the ferry boat. which presently started for An ' na polls. The voyage hither was without inci dent, but the men, there being about | 700 on the boat, were extremely un comfortable. The drinking water gave | out, and some of the soldiers drank salt water, which only aggravated their thirst. The detail for the constitution af forded some excitement, but as the day wore on and the troops were not landed, there was some grumbling, and suffering, too, on the crowded ferry boat. Governor Hicks, of Maryland, who was at Annapolis, protested vigorously against tbe landing of the northern troops on Maryland soil “They are not northern troops,” said Butler. “They are a part of thel militia of the whole United States, obeying the call of the presi dent.” Suc|i a colloquy contained the whole point of contention in the military measures of north and south at the time; hut it eould do little good for either side. The "irrepressible conflict” must take its course. Washington must be pro tected. The troops must be landed in Annapolis.. (Copyright, 1911, by Associated Literary Press.)

CHALMERS A CO., JEWELERS SSB ROUTH BEARMRX STREET. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. INSANE ASYLUM FOR WOMAN WHO WOULDN'T ST A Y AT ALMSHOUSE Not knowing what else to do with her, the city, through City Warden Evans, decided Friday morning that Mrs. Ada Pilgrim had best be sent to the Insane asylum. She has not given any evidence of insanity, but she is sick and destitute and refuses to stay at the almsnouse. The warden said Friday morning that the best thing to do, since she won’t stay at the almshouse, is to send her to Milledgeville, i He added that she seemed weak minded anyway. The woman is now at police station. Thursday afternoon she fainted on the sidewalk near the corner of North Boulevard and Irwin street. She was taken to the Grady hospitaF and there a place that she had bruised on the back of her head when she fell was dressed. Afterward she left the hosp Mal and went home. This “home” is a room at 116 North Boulevard. There is a pallet in the room and a sewing machine. There is not even a chair. The city warden said Friday morning that the pallet was so dirty he hated to tpuch it. Often the woman went without food. What she did get, she bought already cooked. Sometimes the neighbors char itably sent her something. The warden was told of her condition and he went to the room to make an investigation. He found that she was too sick to work, so he induced her to go to the alms house. Not long afterward she showed up at his office and explain ed that she couldn't endure to live on , the city. Then she went back tc her ! "home" where she ate occasionally and slept on the pallet that the warden had shrunk from. She was sick Thursday and had sev eral fainting spells. The neighbors had done a good deal for her, but they, did i not realize just how destitute she was. It is probable that when She fainted the street she was weak from lac.g of food as well as from sibkneas. When she collapsed on the street, she had tot tered out from her loneiy room because It had become unbearable. I When she got back from the hospital, ; she crawled In through a window, for i some reason or other, instead of enter ; ing by the door. After shi was inside, : she went to the pallet and lay down. I Neighbors who thought that the wo man needed help, called up the police. Call Officers Johnson and Dodd found j-her lying on the pallet in the bare room, and had her taken to police station. She spent the night in the matron's ward and is still there. She is only 32 years old. She says that she has a husband who'is employ ed on the Western and Atlantic railroad and who makes a good salarj-. die is sure that If he hears about /her condi tion he will come to her relief. The mat : ron suggested that the probation officer • find the woman's husband and make him take her and support her. Instead iof thiz being done, however, preparations are being made to send the woman to the insane asylum.
