Miss Willard on Suffrage.

Philadelphia, Oct. 17.—At Monday’s session of the Woman’s Christian Temperance union convention Miss Frances Willard made an address. The big Baptist temple was filled with people and the famous advocate of temperance was greeted with much enthusiasm. Mis< Willard said that women should have the right of suffrage, not because the women were better than men, but because they were different. Miss Willard concluded by making an appeal for funds with which to send women to the south for the purpose of organizing the colored women.
