Woman' place In the present-day civilization was the theme of Mrs. May' Arkwrlght Hulton addres Monday before the Women' Political Kquality League In the Olds, wortman & King Auditorium. The suffragist leader from Spokane reviewed the advance that woman has made In the last DO years, and pointed out the evils which she believe the enfranchisement of woman will eradicate. "Woman's "century of dishonor" Is a stain upon the escutcheon of America," said Mr. Hutton; "but I am proud to know that the thinking men and wom en of this country are endeavoring to wipe out the stain. I thank God that the women of six states are no longer classed with Idiots, criminals and pau pers. "Some maintain that women should not vote because they cannot bear arms in war. Women have borne tlie sons who have borne arms in war. Mother as a rule do not believe In war, and niariy are no longer willing- to boar sons for the slaughter. "Women are natural economist. Where they vote they are opposing ex travagance In public affairs. The cur ricula of our public schools need re vising. This la only one of the count less wrongs committed in the name of education.

Founded in 1886 THREAT IS DENIED Patrolman's Testimony Fa vors Defense in Hicks Case. PICKETS' TACTICS SHOWN Acts of Violence Preceding Murder Described by Several Witnesses. One Laid Vp Four Days Fol lowing Attack, Is Declared. Testifying for the defense in the Hicks murder trial yesterday. Patrol man Glas declared that he had never heard Burt Hicks, who is on trial for the killing of W. A. Wortman. say any thing which he could construe, as threats against the union plcketers. This is In direct opposition to the statements of Patrolman Burstow. a brother policeman, who said that Hicks had said in the hearing of both police men: "If any of thes fellows start anything there won't be so many of them left." The witness remembered hearing Burstow remark on looking out the window of the shop and seeing a largo group of plcketers. "Boys if there is anything going to be doing it seems to me it might be tonight." Glase Denies Hearlnc Remark. It was in answer to this that Hicks is alleged to have- made the threaten ing remark, evidence concerning which was introduced by the state as proof of premeditation, an element necessary to substantiation to a charge of first degree murder. Glase said that if Hicks had made the reply attributed to him. or any remark of a violent character, he could not have helped hearing- It. ... The defense is still introducing evi dence of the tactics employed by plcketers. tlie object of this being to show that Hicks had reason for ap prehension. Tiiis Is being done by means of strikebreakers. Ilcketer' Tactic Shown. Among those who yesterday testified to acts of violence and the use of Abusive language by the union men, were: C. K. Mack. Arthur Havill and I Men FOOD Ltd.,l3attle Creek, Mich. Our New Location Will Be 386 Washington St. Bet. W. Park and 10th Washington and Second Sts. Leonard Eick. Havill said 1TB had once been beaten by plcketers and forced to remain at home four days. Testimony of the tactics of the strikers was given also by G. W. Bale, a draughtsman for the Willamette Iron Works. He told of witnessing as saults upon the men who refused to strike or who had taken the place of strikers. Special Prosecutor Davis forced the witnesses to admit that if the strike were successful- and the machinists got shorter hours and higher pay they would gladly share in the fruits of victory. BERNHARDT FILMS WONDER Famous Actress Faithfully Portrayed as Dumas' Heroine. If there is anyone wbo has failed to appreciate the artistic possibilities of the moving picture he will need only to see the films portraying Bernhardt In "Camille," now being shown at the Majestic Theater, to be convinced that a new medium has been offered for the presentation of works of tlie highest dramatic art. The opportunity to see the world's greatest actress in Dumas' old play is one that a large part of the public will not willingly forego. To say that the Bernhardt film is the most interesting ever shown here is one way of saying that It is alto gether satisfying. To those who have seen the actress it will prove a faith ful reproduction of her great powers, and to those to whom this privilege has been denied it will prove a rare dra matic treat. To portray a woman in the flush of youth and charm on the stage as Bernhardt has done, at an age when most actresses have retired, has been one of the miracles of stage his tory; to do the same thing before the 'relentless camera is a greater miracle still. In her film role of Camille all the graces and powers that have made her impersonation famous are shown again. In every detail the production is all that could be desired. WILDE JURY BILL PASSED Extra Compensation of Nearly $100 Granted by County Court. The 12 jurors who heard evidence in the case of tlie state agrainst Louis J.

This is for the 10 nights and one Sunday they ' were locked up. When the bill was first presented, together with a recommendation from SHORT STORY Food That Changed His Life. Many level-headed business men pay too littlo attention to what they eat until sickness attacks them. Sedentary occupation, improper food -and dally resort to drugs, coffee or li quors to "smother" tlie disease has put many a good man away. "For many years my labors have been entirely indoors," writes a N. T. man. "Naturally, want of exercise, coupled with hasty eating of lunch with more or less greasy food and pastry told on my digestion. "For a long period I tried scores of remedies without avail, and finally I was compelled to resign my position as secretary of an important business as sociation. My weight had run down from 145 to 118 lbs. I was unable to sleep naturally, rose unrefreshed and without ambition, simply dragged about, feeling more dead than alive. "About a year ago at a meeting of the Royal Arcanum, of which I am Orator, I was advised to try Grape Nuts. But I had no faith In treating the matter with such a method, and said so. ."'He finally won my promise to give it a fair trial. I began the following day and, to make a long story short, in less than a year I have revolution ised my physical and mental condition, now weigh close to 150 lbs., and can digest all my food, which is eaten with relish. This change is due to Grape Nuts." Name given by Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek. Mich.
