which he offered to take at a salary
ot $70 per month. The appointment

Escape From City Jail ,;
The Donnelly brothers, who were
being held in the city Jail upon a
sentence by the police Judge for vio
lation of the anti-booze law, walked
out of Jail some time last night and
have not since been heard from. The
pair evidently believed that they went
with the outgoing - administration.
The doors were unlocked by someone
having duplicate keys, and the Don
nellys took their departure. They
were serving sentences Imposed about
two , weeks ago, each having been
fined $50 and given 60 days in Jail
tor illegal trafficking in liquor.
SEEKS RIGHT TO
One ot the matters before the city
council Thursday night was a written
request, supported by a petition, from
W. H. Harris, asking that a lower
license tee e made for billboards
within the city. At the time a bill
posting company sought to erect mas
sive billboards about the city, a vig
orous protest from citizens was made,
and in response to the protest the
council adopted an ordinance placing
the license fee at $200. This had
the effect of keeping the boards from
being used, and Mr. Harris states
that he has now purchssed the boards
and wishes to put them to neb It Is
understood that he Is willing to pay
a license fee of from $10 to $20 per
annum for the privilege ot maintain
ing the boards throughout the city,
and asks that an ordinance that had
been presented last year by the build
ers of the boards be now passed, re
ducing the license to a point where
he can post bills upon the boards.
The ordinance will be "brought before
the council at Its next meeting.

FORD PEACE PARTY
AG! SHY OH PEACE
(By United Press Leased Wire.)
Copenhagen, Jan. 7. Again all Is
not peace with the Ford peace party.
Particularly shattered Is the party's
peace of mind.
The Bennett tourist agency today
threatened to sue the expedition for
'$13,000, alleging that the delegates
engaged for a ship1, to take them to
The Hague, after they had obtained
permission to cross Germany. -
Still another unpeaceful symptom
was the threat of Rexford Holmes,
'discharged party stenographer, to sue
lor alleged slander, though attorneys
counselled against such action.
Then, to add to the gayety of the
situation, the newspapers here print
lurid reports ot the Austro-Amertcan
situation, and this makes some of the
delegates fear that trouble will break
out while they are crossing Germany.
And, too, they hear terrible stories
of the war bread they must eat as
they go through as Interned pas
sengers. .. ' ' f

SUFFRAGETTE SHIP
(By United Press Leased Wire.)
Palo Alto, Cal., Jan. 7. That the
"peace ship," Oscar II, is strictly a
suffragette vessel, is Indicated by a
lotter received here today from Mrs.
Alice Park, one ot the peace voy
agers. "The suffrage poll of the Ford
peace ship showed 133 to 11 In favor
of votes for women." Mrs. Park
wrote. "Women were 67 to 1, men
75 to 10. The few delegates against
suffrage were most apologetic and
explanatory. They asked If their
names were to be made public, and
seemed relieved when told that only
the final count was to be published.
No such nervous fear, was shown by
those who said yes. When the reJ
vised list ot passengers was publish
ed, many names were Joined with the
word 'suffragists,' to Indicate much
more than a passive acceptance of
the principle of equality. Never have'
I seen such perfect equality between
men and women as on the Ford peace
ship. In meetings, In platform privi
leges, formal debate and Informal
discussion, men and women met as
absolute equals. It might well be a
western suffrage congrens from all
appearances."
