SUFFRAGETTES IN

PROMINENT WOMEN MARCH IN
GREATEST PARADE FOR
EQUAL RIGHTS

WASHINGTON, March 3. The suf
frage parade took shape simultan
eously in two diflerent portions of
Washington this afternoon. The pa
geant proper presented by a tableau
of over 100 classically garbed women
typifying Faith, Hope, Charity, Jus
tice, Liberty, Columbia, Government
and kindred- subjects was staged on
the broad terrace of the treasury
building.
Severay pretty young suffragettes
appearing in nebulous garb to form
tableaux braved pneumonia . because
of the biting cold. Mildred Anderson,
impersonating "Hope," and Florence
Noyes, impersonating "Liberty", ap
peared barefooted. Some of the char
acters wore gauzy garments, but de
clared -they also wtfre woolen under
wear. The weather was clear, and the
grandstandg filled early. The biggets
hit was made by 75 Illinois women,
who wore white broadcloth suits
trimmed with gold.
Pretty girl "newsies" with gaudy
sashes over their saoulders sold suf
fragette literature on the streets.
Other suffragettes sold doughnuts,
pies and sandwiches along the line of
march.
Among the women partaking in
this portion of the suffragette celebra
tions were Hedwig Rieche, the New
York actress; Flora Wilson, daugh
ter of the secretary of agriculture;
Mary Shaw, the Shakespearean ac
tress; Flora La Follette, daughter of
Senator La Follette, and many other
noted public performers, all of whom
held symbolical poses during their re
view of the mile-long procession.
The parade formed about the peace
monument which stands at the foot
of the capitol terrace at the lower end
of Pennsylvania Avenue. It was
headed by the grand marshal, Mrs.
Richard Coke Burleson. She was
clothed in semi-military attire and
sat her horse like a field marshal of
Napoleon's old guard. Mrs. Burleson
is the wife of Captain Burleson of
the regular army.
Next came Miss Inez Milholland,
also mounted. She was the herald
for the parade and was dressed in
robes of yeilow surmounted by a
great purple banner whose staff fit
ted into a stirrup cup and rose above
her head.
Following came 10 ushers, robed
in light blue and gold and carrying
yellow and blue pennants." Young
girls, mostly of Washington, appear
ed in this group. They marched on
foot, preparing the way for the offi
cers of the National American Wom
an Suffragette Association.
Leading these officers as they
strode along was their president, the
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw. A pace or
two behind Miss Shaw were Miss A.
Anita Whitney of California, second
vice president of the National Asso
ciation, and Mlrs. Mary Ware Dennett
of New York, corresponding secre
tary. Behind these came Mrs. Susan
Walker Fitzgerald of Boston, record
ing secretary; Mrs. Katherine Dexter
McCormick of Boston, treasurer; Mrs.
Harriet Burton Laidlaw of New York
City, first auditor, and Mrs. J. T. Bo
wen of Chicago, second auditor of
the association.
The Second Regiment band follow
ed, playing a martial air. Then came
40 ushers more young girls attired
in light blue and gold, as were the 10
who went before. These acted as
body guard for the leaders of the
cause and were followed by a mount
el brigade composed of Washington
women garbed in long capes of gold
en tan.
MOOSE LODGE HAVING
REMARKABLE GROWTH
Nine applicants for membership
to the Moose Lodge at its last meet
ing were initiated and a dozen will be
initiated at the next meeting. If the
Increase continues the corral will have
to be enlarged again, at the last meet
ing many members being compelled
to stand. The new club rooms prob
ably will ""be. ready for use in a few
days when a stampede from the Port
land lodges is expected in this city.
The first annual ball will be held the
latter part of April. C. S. Noble, A.

A
I New Scheme I
I For the Celebration of St. I
Valentine's Day
By OSCAR. COX
, "Billy," said Bob Edwards to me one
day in January, "I've got an idea."
"TJiat's strange," I replied.
"'es.- It's for St Valentine's day.
That anniversary has degenerated to
one principally for children, though
there are those among the lower
classes who send what they call 'com
ics,' which should be called 'insults.'
I think something might be don to
make a first class holiday of.it. I've
been thinking of opening our summer
house for a week, taking in the 14th
of February, and inviting some girls
and as many fellows. I shall an
nounce in the invitations that each
one of nij men guests shall send one
valentine to a girl 7id each girl shall
send a valentine to a fellow. Each
valentine is to have a mark on it, and
I, the host, shall have a key showing
to whom the marks belong. All valen
tines are to be sent through me. I

will discover the cases where valen
tines have been exchanged that is,
where a feilow sends a valentine to
the girl who sends him one.')
Bob paused and looked at me in
quiringly. He didn't feel very certain
of his plan 8rtd wondered if I .ap
proved. "Well," I said, "what then?'
"Why, there are a number of was's
the thing might be followed up. One
is we might have a mock marriage
between any couple wrho have made
an exchange of valentines. Another
is we might get the same persons to
gether the next St. Valentine's day,
and if auv of the exchangers have
been married they must pay a forfeit
or something like that. See?"
"Bob," I exclaimed, "how In the
world does that skull of yours find
room for such gigantic inventive pow
ers? I'll tell you what to do to make
the affair a success."
"What?"
".Tust you let me make out the list of
invitations."
"I'll do it."
He clapped his palm in mine; then,
sifting down at a desk, we took up
writing materials and I-iade the list.
Bob approving in every instance. There
were only five couples, for, the Ed
wards country residence is not over
large; besides, I arranged the persona
invited to suit my own ideas. They
were to arrive five days before the 14th
and to remain two days after.
"Bob, old man," I remarked after we
had carefully revised the list and made
all the changes we thought necessary,
"that party is going to be a love feast."
"A regular Cupid's frolic."
"One thing I don't understand why
you invite them five days before St
Valentine's day."
"It's this way. They have five day?
for preliminary lovemaking, one day
on which the announcements are to be
iniulo that's six and one day for a
sort of honeymoon, you know."
"T5y Jove, you've hit it just right.
But isn't the honeymoon rather short?"

"What an old head you have on those
young shoulders of yours." said Bob
admiringly.
We assembled on the 9th of Febru
ary, most of us arriving just in time to
dress for dinner. 'Mr. and Mrs. Ed
wards, Bob's parents, were not present.
I had suggested a widow, Mrs. Bar
stow, for chaperon. She presided at
one end of the table at dinner. Bob
sitting at the other. No one present
knew her except myself, and I knew
all about her. She was twenty-seven
years old and rather good looking.
And. here I will divulge a secret. One

Every kindness done to others in
our daily walk, every attempt to make
others happy, every prejudice over

every sin left behind, every tempta

step forward in the cause of what
is good, is a step nearer God.
Dean Stanley.
privilege of naming the guests was
that I wished Mrs. Barstow to be of
the party, and I intended to send my
valentine to her.
It was funny to see the fellows avoid
ing or trying to appear to avpjd the
girls to whom they intended to send
their valentines. And most of the girls
did the same thing. Every one of
them, boys and girls alike, supposed
that he or she was deceiving all the
rest. Every one was happy and on the
tiptoe of expectation. As for me, I en
joyed it all immensely. ' Indeed, Bob
and I, being the organizers of the af
fair, looked for something interesting.
Bob held the key to the identity of the
guests, while I well, I held the key to
the situation, though I was the only
one who knew this.
Never In my life have I seen such
skirmishing every feilow for the girl
he wanted, every girl for the fellow
she wanted and all trying to, conceal
their preference. I had suggested for
invitation those who would be likely
to produce just such a result, and I
was not disappointed. Every day pro
duced a stronger undercurrent than the
preceding one. Usually there is more
chicanery in such matters among wo
men than among men, but in this case
the men out-Heroded Herod. Every
man was. showing plainly the girl he
Intended sending his valentine, only
he didn't intend any such thing. As
for the girls, their diplomacy lay in
showing nothing as to what they
would do.
The evening before St. Valentine's
day we all handed Bob a sealed envel
ope containing our names and private
marks for our valentines iad before,
going to bed slipped our Cupid's mis
sives into a box provided for the pur
pose. I, as I had intended from the
first, sent mine to the widow. Hav
ing done so I returned to my room
and to bed. In the morning I saw a
fancy envelope on the floor, which had
evidently been slipped under my door
during the night. I knew at once that
it was a valentine, and since Mrs.
Barstow had announced that she
would not be a part of the regular
scheme I judged it was from her.
We breakfasted at 0 o'clock on St
Valentine's morning. Bob sat at the
head of the table with the valentines
in his pocket. He had been up long
enough to examine them and find out
just how many couples if any had ex
changed. But I noticed a look of dis
appointment on his physiognomy.
There was scarcely any conversation
at the table, though every one tried to
talk. Too much was at stake for all
to admit of anything more than dis
connected remarks. Bob remained as
sober as a judge, though now and
again I could see a slight quirking up
ward of the corners of his mouth.
When -breakfast was finished he drew
a memorandum from his pocket but
it was not needed.
"I regret to tell you all," he said,
"that my plan for celebrating St Val
entine's day has not turned out as
might have been expected.'.'
He then went on to speak of the val
entines the girls had sent, and thev
were quite evenly distributed.
"And now." .he continued, "I must
make an announcement that I would
prefer it should have turned out pth
erwise. But before doing so I have to
request that I may be permitted to
keep it a secret."
This, of course, only stimulated cu
riosity, and he was commanded to pro
ceed. "Well, then," he said reluctantly,
"all the men's valentines were ad
dressed to our good chaperon. Mrs
Barstow."
I cast my eyes around the table.
Every man looked as if he had stolen
a sheep, and in the eyes of every girl
there was a lurid fire. J suppose I am
a cynical sort of chap. At any rate
I had arranged matters for this result
and was satisfied. 1 knew that if
Mrs. Barstow were admitted to Bob
Edwards' St. Valentine's party (could
I but induce her to take the necessary
steps) she would gather all the men's
valentines to herself. When I pro
posed the plan to her she demurred,
but finally consented.
That was tae end of the St. Valen
tine's house party. After breakfast
the girls went up to their rooms or
each other's rooms, and we could heat
considerable discussion going on among
them in voices which bespoke their
feelings. First one girl, then another,
announced that she was needed at
home or an . engagement had been
made for her and she must take the
afternoon train. Most of the men who
were sorry for what they had done
went with them to try to "make it up."
The chaperon couldn't stay alone with
two men, so she departed also. The
consequence was that on St. Valen
tine's day at 7 o'clock in the evening
Bob and I dined alone.
"Billy," said Bob, "you provided more
time for the honeymoons than was
needed after all."
"Bob," I replied, "I'm looking for
ward to a real honeymoon."
"With whom?"
"The widow."
I tossed the valentine I had received
from her, and when he didn't find a
mark on it I told him how it had been
left under my door.
When the next St. Valentine's day
came round I had married the widow,
and we sent out invitations to all who
had been guests at Bob Edwards' house
party for one at our own residence. A
year before the lady who was now
my wife was not popular among the
girls of those present, and they would
have then scorned her invitation, but
meanwhile they had made it up with
the men, and some of them had mar
ried those to whom they had sent their
valentines. So they accepted cordially.
Bob was there too, but on condition
that I had no valentine scheme on
hand. He has not to this day quite
forgiven me for spoiling his idea for
renovating the anniversary.
Man's Preference.
A woman lecturing on eugenics in
Cleveland said:
"It is a good thing for the human
race that beauty counts for more than
intellect when it comes to love. Intel

hypochondria. .
"Yes; it is a good thing for the hu

HURRY AND EFFICIENCY.
It is not the man making the most
motions that does the most work. It
is the man who " makes, every move
count
The giant dynamo which turns the
machinery of a city makes little noise.
It moves almost as quiey as the uni
verse. Yet it never misses a stroke,
and its every stroke is power.
A bluebottle By on a windowpane Is
certainly industrious, also noisy, but
he gets nowhere. Moreover, he never
learns. The same fly will buzz at the
same pane as often ashe happens on
the wrong side of it.
The trouble is that he lacks brains.
If he had- 'even a glimmer of intelli
gence he would find some' other way
out of his difficulty.
Iu a modified degree is this not also
the trouble with those who make too
many motions and too much noise
about their tasks? Of course bustle is
all right if it gets anywhere. But there
are people who fly hither and yon,
stew and worry their heads off and get
little or nothing done to show for it.
There are other ways to work besides
with our hands or feet with our heads,
for example. That is what our heads
are for.
Lincoln had a way of stripping every
question down to its essentials. He got
at the nub of it and decided that He
aee&rnplished much without seeming to
hurry.
On vital things he was very slow-ajid
painstaking, yet historians now agree
that, generally speaking, he acted at
the right time.
He had time to chat with his friends,
even to tell stories, yet the presidency
of the United States is a most exacting
office and never more so than during
our great civil war.
Lincoln knew the secret of making
every move count.
It is that which tells the story of ef
ficiency. Move quickly, of course, but
surely.
The great business houses of our own
day are developing that same kind of
efficiency.. They move with the pre
cision of gigantic machines.
The men wanted by these big houses
are those that work wTfh their heads
men that know the most about the
business, men that find new ways to
drnw trade, to eliminate waste, to
cheapen production, to cut corners.
Tbv man who has his headwork prop
erly organized will not make false
moves He will not be a human .edi
