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.

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. Lance number old news papers for sale.

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. Jhst chase a street car and you’ll see How fast a car can go; But when you’ve caught it, bully gee! Why does it run so slow? 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. Classing His Hotel.
