the band. Night after night the drums
bad been confiscated by the police, but
to oo effect Finally a police order
went out to "arrest anyone attempting
to beat a drum.''
Following this Colonel Glfforrl In an
effort to teat the constitutionality of
the order advertised thnt upon a cer
tain evening a monster meeting would
be held and thai upon that occasion
Mrs Gilford would beat the drum.
As anticipated, a record breaking

Mots which might ensue. At a given

REAL SOUTH NOT
OPPOSED TO SUFFRAGE.
Mrs. Josephus Daniels of North
Carolina, wife of the Secretury of the
Navy, snys It will be a pity If the men
of her stute do not ratify the Federal
Suffrage Amendment, as It would he
the Hist hrcuk In their reputation for
giving women whut they wnnt.
"No class of women bus ever been
considered more of the tlingln;: vine
t Iiu.it the women of the south," siilil
Mrs. Dunlels. "No cluss of women
hits ever been more protected, yet li.
times of nutionnl stress, southern worn
eu always have risen to the.orcesion
und proved themselves inure than
equal to their responsibilities."
MRS. COLONEL ADAM QIFFORD,
Salvationist
under way. Immediately the trait lit
tle Salvation Army lassie was placed
under arrest and escorted by a crowd
of amused but sympathetic onlookers
to the patrol wagon and thence to the
local Jail, where she spent the night
The case was taken before the su
preme court of the state, where even
tually the contention of the "Anny
was sustained.
Following the decision the entire
corps, led by Colonel Olfford, marched
to the city hall to demand the drums
that had been confiscated by the po
lice. Twenty-eight of the offending
"prisoners" were released In the cus
tody of the corps. From that date to
the present none of the meetings ot
the Salvation Army has been disturbed
by the poilce. Furthermore, the prece
dent established has been maintained
In nearly every etate Id the Union.
COME ALONG, LADIES!
"I am convinced that It Is the part
of wisdom for the Liemocriitlc party In
North Carolina to accept woman stiff
nii;e gracefully. Wuuian suffrage Is
Inevitable. He Is a deaf man who does
not hear the swish of Its skirts. He Is
a blind mull who docs not see lis
legions advancing.
"(lentleiuen of Tnrhellat Let's be
good sports and join lustily in the
chorus, 'Come along, ladles.' Some
time ago I definitely decided to advise
the general assembly In the speclul ses
sion In July to ratify the Ketlerul
Anieniliiient. It Is the sensible and the
graceful thing to do." T. W. HKCK
