CALIFORNIA MAKES
HER CHANGE MIND
Miss Lee, Who Was Last to
Want Suffrage, Has to Praise
Its Benefits.
“A convert to suffrage by force of
circuinntances” is tht way Miss Alice
Lee described herself in an address
the other day at Newport, R. I- Miss
Lee, who is a student of politics and
economics, has lived for some years
in California. She said she was the
last person to want suffrage before
it was granted, but her observation
had convinced her it was a good thing,
saya Tfci Woman’s Journal.
She was in California through a na
tional and a civic campaign, and in
the latter the women did more than
the men. Under woman suffrage the
sturdy middle class, the best element,
votes; the women of the red light dis
tricts do not register. Some women
who are much interested In bridge
whist also neglect to register and vote,
and often regret it afterwards.
Miss Lee said California women in
general desire to know the meaning
of the constitutional amendments pro
posed, and study these amendments
more than the men. California
much like rural New England, hun
dreds of women doing their own
housekeeping. Politics is a subject
of conversation in all families at din
ner, and in that way the young people
become well versed in the subject.
Among measures obtained through
the enfranchised women, Miss Lee
mentioned free textbooks, a public
utilities commission, a civil service
commission, the* mothers’ pension bill,
the health certificate before marriage,
the red light injunction bill, the n
mum wage commission and the broad
ening of the eight-hour law for wo
men.
CHRISTMAS SPENT
OUIETLTJ ATHENS
Less Disorder and Noise Than
Formerly, and Still Everyone
Seemed to Be Happy.
Yesterday was perhaps the quietest
Christmas day spent in this city in
many years. It may be that the
Weather had an effect, and jt is very
likely that it did, but it is a noticea
ble and noteworthy fact that there
was not as many drunks and less dis
order than in former years. Every
one seemed to get the spirit of the
occasion, and everyope seemed to be
happy,, but they realized that a real
celebration must be carried on along
safe and sensible lines.
The lack of noise yesterday was
also noticed. Of course, there was
some, but in comparison to former
Christmas days it was very insignifi
cant. It seems that this custom of,
discharging fireworks is rapidly being
relegated to the background, and in
the future both Independence day and
Christmas will be celebrated in a more
tthaftinr. Pulleys, Celts,

with his best man, Mr. J. L. Jewell,
and here they met at the improvised
altar where the impressive service was
performed by Rev. Butler, of Athens.

"BABY LEGISLATOR"
SOOHTO ANNOUNCE
(Special to The Herald.)
Atlanta, December 26.—Announce
ment is shortly expected of the candi
dacy for congress in the 11th Georgia
district of Hon. Grover C. Edmondson,
of Brooks county, known as “the baby
of the legislature,” a title bestowed
on him by his friends because he was
tbe youngest member of the legisla
tive body.
Although Mr. Edmondson himself
has made no statement on the subject,,
it is understood that one of the princi
pal planks in his platform will be an
advocacy of the repeal of the national
bankruptcy act.
Mr. Edmondson will urge the point
of- view of the average honest mer
chant and business man in the coun
try, i. e., that the law should be
changed so as to afford better protec
tion to those who extend credit. Un
der the present bankruptcy law a man
can take out bankruptcy papers every
six years. Mr. Edmondson contends
that that law, perhaps necessary and
useful when it was enacted, now gives
too much latitude and should be re
pealed.

Seat Sale Opens for “Peg o’ My
Heart.”
So eager is the desire of local the
ater patrons to witness a performance
of that much extolled comedy. ‘Peg
o’My Heart,” which, with Laurette
Taylor in the title role, has proven one
of the greatest successes New York
has known in years, that it looks as
though the house would be virtually
sold out when the sale of seats opens
at Palmer’s this morning. Manager
Carney has been flooded with mail or

their receipt when accompanied by ex
press or postal money order, or by

concerned, it is an exact replica

Pinkerton Praises New Play.
When Bayard Veiller’s .absorbing
w American play ^Within the Law,”
the current dragfuitic sensation of New
York, which Trie American Play Com
pany is to. present h-ece at the Cold-
theater at an early date was giv
en its initial performance at the Prin
cess Theater, Chicago, last spring,
perhaps the most interested and en
thusiastic .person in the large and crit
ical first night audience was William
A. Pinkerton, the internationally fam-
detective, who enjoys good dra
matic entertainment as keenly as solv-
a mysterious crime. So delighted
wa3 Mr. Dfnkerton with the applause
the play' received at its premiere that
he could not restrain himself from ex
pressing to its author his opinion that
“Within the Law” is the most impres-
Queer.

drama he has ever witnessed. Mr.
Pinkerton warmly commended the
passages of the play treating 0 f police
methods, life among successful thieves
tactics of shrewd blackmailers, and
general conditions in the “underworld”
of society. He expressed admiration
for the fidelity to nature and tbe ac
curate and intelligent application of
color and atmosphere and the wealth
of detail.
Within the Law” exploits the story
of a pretty young American girl who,
innocent of wrongdoing, is “railroad
ed” to prison—sacrificed to the need
in “example” against theft. She
emerges and tries to be honest, but
the police persecute her and drive her
from the haunts of decent people. De-
nid the right to live honestly, she
adopts safe methods of crime, remain
ing always technically “within the
law,” but preying a t will on society
under that cloak.

know human nature, is calling out,
“Right 'dis way fo’ de State House, de
bes’ secon-class hotel in town.” Then,
with a broad grin, he adds: “Dey ain’t

j Cote’s Hot Blast has a guaranteed smoke-proof feed door—,
open Hie feed door and the current of air draws the smoke
directly across the top of stove to the stove pipe—away from
the opening. Contrast this simple, cleanly feed with the side
door in an ordinary heater.*.The side door used on other
stoves permits escape of dirty smoke, unpleasant gas and
accumulated soot drops from it.If you overfill a side door

in favor of Cole’s Hot Blast which is air-tightand guaranteed
