they have been granted equal rights '
and privileges with men.
"There are a few women." she con- |
tinned, "who stand out from the n

She mentioned four, and sketched

"The Russian people first looked
upon their revolution as a beautiful

Its actions. After a while they be

wings and finally trampled the beau
tiful butterfly of freedom under
rough-shod feet."
Miss Beatty. representing the San

the Winter Palace when the provis

o'clock in the morning. She was

They're Not "Old MdBent"
"Why do writers always insist on referring to the soldier's' mother as 'old and bent'?" protest
, ingly asks a valiant woman in Oakland, CaL, who has given several sons to the colors. "We may be
old," she conceded, "but we simply refuse to be bent until America has finished the great task to which
it has dedicated itself." Such a mother is Mrs. M. Mitchell (center), who is not bowed down, though
tour of the five stars in her service flag are gold?for boys who "have made the supreme sacrificc. If
that Oakland patriot will forgive us for past blunders, we will never again refer 10 a soldier's mother
as "old. and bent."
RIGHT OF SEARCHING

Whether Warrant Is NeccMarjr I?
Point Raised in Alexandria.

tD-ta Ktaf Stmt.
Alexandria. Va., May 37.?The right
of state prohibition inspectors to
search the baggage of passengers on
steam trains for contraband liquor
without a warrant, was questioned to
day in the Police Court by Attorney
G. L. Boothe, when two railroad men.
a conductor and a flagman, employed
by the Washington-Southern Railway
Company, were arraigned because
they refused to permit Prohibition In
spector J. C. Shellhorse to take in his
possession a suit case and a basket
from a train which suit case, it was
afterward discovered, contained 34
pints of liquor.
Justice Thompson, after hearing the I
evidence presented against the rail-1
road men by Prohibition Inspector |
shellhorse, acquitted them. The con
ductor of the train testified that,
when Shellhorse attempted to take
possession of the baggage, he asked
for hie warrant, and Shellhorse pro
duced an old warrant, and thereupon
he refused to permit him to take It,
l declaring the railroad company was
responsible. He turned the baggage
over to the flagman and had the latter
deposit it with the ticket agent at the
Union Railway Station here.
Mr Boothe told the court that the I
railway company is responsible for I
the baggage of its passengers, and |
that he believed it was unconstitu
I tional to search baggage without a |
| warrant for such action.
The Red Cross collections today I
passed the f 16,000 mark and more}
funds are still in sight.
The executive and clerical em

Carroll Pierce, local chairman.
The colored citizens are making
a hard drive, and they expect to
raise the fund considerably. A.
good sized collection was taken to
day at the Potomac Railroad Yards.
