PLACE BIBLES IN B00MS HOTELS Following Meeting Held At Y. M. C. A. Yesterday Afternoon.

ft MERE MYTH

Is That Which Says the Women of this Country Can . Have Anything They Want Any Time They Ask For It. Anyway It's Not True in Indiana.

Following a meeting of men and boys at the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium Sunday afternoon, at which talks were made by James Martin, of Elkhart, president of the Gideons of the state and Edward Allison, of Dayton. Bibles were taken to the Westcott hotel, Arlington Hotel and Y. M. C. A. In the Westcott 100 Bibles were placed in the rooms, at the Arlington 76, and at the Y. M. C. A. 49. It is planned to place Bibles in the Grand. Wayne. Snell, Armer, Medford

and Windsor hotels within the near future. These hotels would have been supplied at this time but for the limited amount subscribed to purchase the Bibles. The books were purchased from money raised by local persons. Groups of men and boys carried the Bibles to the hotels yesterday afternoon. The meeting was held at 3 o'clock in the association building gymnasium. In their addresses Messrs. Martin and Allison told of the work which is being carried on by the Gideons. They spoke of the number of Bibles which had been placed in hotels in the leading cities of the country, and of the work accomplished with traveling men End women. The meeting was fairly well attended.

PRES. KELLY TO BE JUDGE OF DEBATE

i President Kelly of Earlham, has accepted an invitation to be a judge of tJhe debate between Denison college and Miami University on March 15. The debate is to be held at Oxford, Ohio, on the question, "Resolved, that all towns ot 15,000 or more inhabitants in the state of Ohio should adopt the commission form of municipal government."

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Legislatures are curious things. And go off at odd and peculiar tangents. They never do the things or at

least rarely that they are expected to i do. ! And do all sorts of extraordinary

ones that seem more or less futile and anomalous. The legislature of Indiana meets for sixty days once every two years. And there are those who say thr.t that is .iust two years too often. And sixty days too long.

However that may be the one just

about to close has done nothing specially notable. Unless it is the public utilities bill. About whose details the public is so far vague. Legislation for women was given knock out blows whenever possible. The amusing ten hour law jacked up at the last moment and pushed through with such surprising alacrity is of no consequence, nor does it ma

terially affect wage earning women over the state. Most of them work ten hours now. So that the especial point of this wonderful measure is somewhat lost in obscurity. In fact labor received short shrift by the solons. The labor compensation bill was

killed for one thing. And this would, of course, have affected women as well as men. The eight hour law for women, the nine hour law for women, the women on school boards law in cities of over 20,000 where the schools boards were appointed by the city councils all these were lost. The attempt to get an appropriation

through for the purpose of distributing literature over the state on the subject of the proper care and rearing of babies was turned down with derisive hilarity. A measure to further the control of women in their property was also killed. Women in this state, thanks to the labors of Robert Dale Owen, have more liberty in this respect than in many of the other commonwealths making up the Union. And it is to this early champion of women's rights that this is due. This should not be forgotten. Nor that it was for this purpose that Indiana women, a few years ago, collected a fund for the perpetuation of Owen's memory through a portrait bust of this great man placed in the state-house grounds. Robert Dale Owen was one of the most remarkable men of his day and far advanced of his time. He, at that time, recommended woman's enfranchisement.

i Witness live hundred representa- ! tive women over the state asking for

constitutional amending for their enfranchisement. And then see the men go into session immediately thereafter and kill it deader than any coffin nail. In common parlanee it is "to laugh." Civilization is measured by its treatment of its women. And Indiana certainly falls far short of the supposed social standard. In the investigation by the U. S. senate which followed the disgraceful scenes attending the woman's suffrage parade in Washington Monday Tast, it was developed that the police not only did not try to check the mob's depredations but egged them on. Strangely enough next day perfect order was maintained throughout the

passing of the great inauguration pageant.

The police had no difficulty in policing the city thoroughly. When a thing touches the direct persons of offcialdom however, it is quite another matter. And when the daughters, wives and other feminine attaches to the households of senators and congressmen were flouted and insulted by the vulgar rabble and the low-brows there must be an accounting my lords and

gentlemen. Masculine dignity is very easily ruffled. You'll notice this in what is sometimes strangely called all "walks of

life." "In the home," Monsieur is usually very sensitive. If he isn't given proper attention, he sulks. Others may come and go and be accorded any treatment for all he notices or cares, but let any negligence be manifested toward his noble prerogatives, let him be permitted to sit alone without the household salaaming and kowtowing what a grieved, injured being have we here.

It is the same in all business establishments.

Complaints may be handed in by the

feminine employes about any old thing. But employers .will give them the cold handout. Shrug the shoulder. Can t be bothered with "women's fusses." Tell the

women they're too sensitive. That they

imagine things. To go on and attend to business and pay no attention. But let the gentleman's toes be trod on ever so slightly what a rowing and rumpussing! This is the masculine attitude toward women. And it is what caused the trouble in Washington the other day.

But when Monsieur found it was his own women who had suffered hah! My masculine integrity has been brought into question. My dignity has been assailed. Let us have an investigation bring together the committee. And thus it is. It's the same way with the legislators. Let the women slave twenty-four hours a day. That's what they're made for. If they don't like it, let 'em do something else. On the principle of Marie Antoinette and her famous pronouncement "Why don't they eat cake?" when

told the oeasants had no bread

for them the fair property rights that they now enjoy in this state. This is shown by the shelving of the measure in this legislature to further insure a woman the control of her own property. The legislators of this day are not as enlightened as some of their confreres were a half century ago. While all of these measures affecting women were killed in the present sessions and a variety of others beneficial to the state at large turned down, the

noble legislators voted as wittily and i sarcastically commented upon by a woman through a letter in the Indianapolis Star twenty-five hundred dollars

for the publication of a book made up of their biographies and ornamented with their pictures. Then they got together and solemnly passed a record-making law that all milk bottles and cans must be cleaned by patrons before returned to their owners, the milkmen. This, of course, is admittedly a good law. But its relative importance to those that were killed is as one hundred to one.
