TO AID

HUT

IS ITS Sewing Society to Teach Poor Women to Make and Mend Clothes. To hlp others to help themselves will be the mission of a sewing school formed by the County Council of Charities, which will hold its sessions in the Associated Charities rooms on Saturday afternoons throughout the winter. At the county council meeting yesterday It was decided that in so far as there are so many poor women In the city, who are incompetent along lines whfch can be remedied by a school seBsion of this kind, the plan was adopted. A representative of each charity society in the city will be present at the sessions of the school and assist those in charge. It has been held by social workers In Richmond that much of the suffering of the poor is due to the fact that they do not know how to sew and rook. Household economics, ability to make ends meet, thrift and cleanliness are held to be factors that will do ! much to elevate many persons who are poor now because they did not learn the advantages of these factories when they were young. The proposed school will strive to remedy these evils. - Leaders in the Associated Charities have maintained for many years that the basis of social redemption is to , teach the poor to do things for themselves. For this reason the city missionary has often shown poor women bow to patch garments and cook substantial meals. The county council also discussed the matter of assisting the truant officer to keep young people in school. Reports showed that this is a matter in which the counoll may be of service, and a general crusade to keep the "youngsters" off the street and in school will be made. A more stringent enforcement of the curfew law will also be asked of the city council. HELD AT JAIL Chester Ellis will be held at the city Jail until tonight or until Mayor Zimmerman can find out whether he has paid his board bill. Ellis was formerly employed at the Clendenin Fertilizing plant and was discharged and ordered to leave the premises before he had finished his? week's board for which he had paid in advance. As Ellis boarded with one of the tenants on the premises, he refused to leave. Mayor Zimmerman said he would dismiss the case if Ellis had paid as he claims. Ellis is charged with trespass.

MINE WORKERS FOR SUFFRAGE y

Some Splendid Speeches Made at Recent Convention Here for Woman's Enfranchisement by Representatives of Miners' Union.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Hats off to the mina workers. Some of the very best speeches of the Federation of Labor convention were made by the members of this union. That is, from the point of view of good speechifying both in matter and manner. And, when it comes to the consideration of the resolution of Indorsing woman's suffrage, the finest extemporaneous speeches on the subject the writer has ever heard at any time or in any place were here made. They were logical and comprehen sive and eloquent in chivalrous senti ment. No more beautiful and appreciative things could be said about women than were said by these men. All the suffragists here should have heard them and all women for that matter. There was some opposition to the passage of this resolution although a similar one had been favorably acted upon two years ago but the majority of the delegates were strongly in favor of woman's suffrage as could be told by the heartiness of the voting response. But it was the spirit that fixed the attention and gave the sentiments expressed their attraction. Mr. William Huston, of Terre Haute, in instance, made one of the most convincing pleas for the enfranchisement of women of any of those who addressed the convention on this subject. He used the declaration of the colonists as an illustration and pointed out its analogy to the movement for the civic emancipation of woman. Mr. Huston was a picturesque figure and appealed to the imagination. Short but powerfully built, with a lot of iron-grey hair which tumbled on his forehead when he sDoke with vena iorenedu wnen ne spoKe wun ve-

Frank T. Hawley, who had the air of a college professor, and whose speeches gave the impression of erudition and the moderation of culture, also spoke most germanely to the suffrage resolution and the question in general. At all times this man's speech betokened the thinker and he of the dispassionate conclusion. Still here was a man who was taken out of school at the age of twelve and put into the mines. Where the first named now works. There is something fine and splendid about it and indicative of the nobility of humanity. : The trouble is that we know one another too little. Hedged about with our own little conventions and traditions. Shackled by our own limitations. If everybody would get to know everybody half the ills of humanity could be ameliorated in a far shorter time than the imagination can conceive. If, in instance, the members of the W. C. T. U. and the bartenders' union could have attended each others' conventions held at about the same time in this city this week, each would

Since a bar-tender is a business man and must attend strictly to business. Herein lies one of those evolutionary processes this column referred to yesterday as in progress. Time was when a bar-tender drank with the best of them. Nowadays his employer doesn't tolerate this. Take the miners for instance. The general idea of the uninformed is of uncouthness, griminess and illiteracy. But on the floor of the Federation of Labor convention you find them well-groomed and erudite.
