Miss Margaret Haley Tells How Instructors in Her City Became Advocates of Suffrage Cause. Maintenance of an efficient working organization and affiliation with the National League of Grade Teachers was recommended to the Wayne County Teachers' club at the annual luncheon in the Westcott hotel today by Miss Margaret Haley, of Chicago. These suggestions were made after Miss Haley had outlined the work the Chicago organization had done. After a long, hard fight against the school board and the corporations of the city, whose heads were also members of the board, Miss Haley said, the teachers had established a pension fund and secured a raise in the minimum wage from $850 to $1,500 a year. When the teachers sought the reason for repeated cuts in Balary they found the school board had no money because the corporations were not paying taxes on their full valuation. They set about having the property assessed properly. After a long campaign they saw several hundred thousand dollars paid into the city treasury as the result of their work. Because they were without political influence this money was used to increase the firemens and policemen's pension fund. Makes Suffragets. This act made the Chicago teachers suffragets, Miss Haley said. She told how they ultimately came out victorious and how they managed the pension fund by paying flat rates each year during the service in the schools. ' The fund is administered by a board of nine trustees, six of whom are elected by the teachers and the others by the school board. Several times the board has tried to wrest control of the fund from the teachers, but campaigns in the legislature have resulted in a complete victory for them. While teachers of Wayne county can not hope to accomplish such great j tnings, sne huvihpu a iiniuaucui -i-ganization with some one devoting a great deal of time to the Interests of the body. She branded as useless the pink tea affairs held occasionally. Efficiency and co-operation were urged as the means of accomplishing re sults. Miss Halev will speak to the public : on the suffrage at the high school building this evening.

In Its new charter, Lethridge, Alberta has adopted equal suffrage, as well as the commission form of government. They have elected a woman city clerk, the first to hold this office in Canada. In an inter collegiate debate between Harvard, Yale and Princeton, the debaters almost all became converts to suffrage. Five of the nine Harvard men were opposed and tour in favor. At the close of the debate nnly one was opposed. A member of the Princeton team says: "The study cf the merits of the question has convinced us all of right and justice, yes pven the expediency of the measure." It's a fine thing to have almost all of the promising young orators in three great universities converted to the belief in equal suffrage. Clarence E. Carr. says: "I believe woman should vote as a matter of right, duty and necessity. In Andover, we have had better and longer school .meetings since women began to vote 'mm school questions." Senator Ballinger affirms, "If there Is any valid reason why woman should; 'rote, as well as a man provided she 'wants to do so I have never been able to discover it." Winston Churchill says. "In California they are grasping thefact that un;der modern conditions a government iwhich is conducted by men's votes elone is one-sided."

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 18. During the summer months, every public school yard and public park in Indianapolis will belong to the children of the city. The "kiddies" will have just twice as much room in which to play this summer as they had last year. The arrangements for the increased play room for children's outdoor sports and recreation were made after numerous conferences between members of the city health board, the public school commissioners and the park commissioners, with Harry D. Tutewiler, playground commissioner, and Francis R. North, field secretary for the Playground and Recreation association. Mr. North has made a scientific recreation survey of the city, and his recommendations for the equipment of playgrounds will be followed in completing the plans to give the children plenty of room out of doors. The children will be taught to play scientifically, and it is likely that an expert will be employed to come from one of the largest cities in the country to give the boys and girls instructions in forms of play that will be most beneficial to them and which will give them the largest possible enjoyment in making use of the public playgrounds. SUFFRAGETS SPREAD TERRORJi FLAME Militants Plan Extravagant Arson Campaign Striking All Over Country. LONDON, April 18. A reign of terror exists today throughout the British Isles as a result of the activities of the Suffraget Incendiaries. The fears of property owners were heightened today by the information that Scotland yard had discovered a plot among the leaders of the militant, suffragets to carry on the most extravagant arson campaign that has been injected into their campaign for votes. Insurance rates are being increased, and many large property owners are employing special guards to watch their buildings. A striking feature of the situation is that no one knows where the torch will be applied next. The leaders have divided the arson squad into detachments, one of which has been sent into Scotland and another into Ireland. During the past twenty-four hours suffragets have done more than $250,000 damages. WOMEN USE TORCH BELFAST, April 18. Leaving behind the most scathing literature denouncing Sir Edward Carson and the British government, suffragets early today invaded the Bellevue Gardens, owned by the Municipality and burned a pavilion and a tearoom and wrecked botanical gardens. The damage is estimated at $45,000.

Women from all parts of the country who are descended from soldiers of the Aremican War of the Revolution will meet Monday at the Continental Memorial Hall in this city to attend the twentythird continental congress of the Daughters of the American Revolution. The congress wnich the session will open is of less consequence than those at which presidents and generals of the organization are elected, the present meeting being planned only to consider routine business and elect ten vice presidents general. When Mrs. William dimming Story, President General, bangs her gavel for order at the opening tomorrow morning it will not be in the expectation that the session will equal in animated discussion any of the former sessions which have made the D. A. R, famous, for the offices to be filled are not deemed of sufficient importance to justify any determined rivalries on the part of the candidate. Wilson Interested. President Wilson, who is much interested in the D. A. R.'s organization is scheduled to deliver the opening address. Then follows the work of the organization of committees, the drafting of resolutions and the transaction of the routine business of the order. Tomorrow night Mrs. Story will receive the delegates at the Memorial Hall. She will be attended at the reception and throughout the convention by girl pages, one representing each state in the union. Tuesday the delegates will be received at the White House by the President and Mrs. Wilson. Such business as comes before the Congress will be transacted at the ensuing sessions and when it is entirely disposed of the body will proceed to the election of the ten vice president general.

When a bard liner from one of the bats at the Richmond-New Madison game yesterday afternoon struck Smith Hoover, a crippled paper boy. In the eye. it cut a deep gash and almost drove the eyeball from the socket. Young Hoover waa sitting along the first base line in a crowd of youngsters. A vicious hook from the bat of a New Madison player sent the ball to ward I he crowd. No one had time to dodge, and the ball struck Hoover squarely in the eye. He was carried Into the residence of Dr. Buche. who
I administered first aid. He was then taken home in an automobile and the family physician called. After a careful examination it was found that the eyeball had not been burst ed and that the youth would not lose, his sight. Brother Hirachburg and the effort to land them will be made.
