MRS. T. J. HUEY IN CHARGE
Hour from 11:30 .a. m., to 9:30 p. m.
Improvements From Time to
Time Planned.
If you are troubled with piles and
can't find a cure, try Witch Hazel
Salve, but be sure you get that made
by EL C. DcWitt & Co.. Chicago. It
Is the original. If you have used Witch
Hazel Salve without being relieved it
Is probable that yott got hold of one
of the many worthless counterfeits that
are sold on the reputation of the gen
uine DeWitfs Witch Hazel Salve. Sold
by all druggists.
Tomorrow morning at 11:30 the rest
rooms prepared and furnished by the
Rock Island branch of the W. C. T. U..
in the Blakesley block over Bartlett
Bros.' store on Third avenue, will be
opened to the public and from that
time . on- will be maintained for the
free use of young women" bet ween the
hoars of 11:20 a. m., and 9:30 p. ni., on
week days.
There are three rooms and toilet.
The furnishings are fairly complete
laeking some of the- things that "the
members of the union hope to install
later. A piano has been provided;
there are reading matter, chairs,
couches, etc. Shortly it is hoped to
add tables for various games and other
periodicals.
Separate From Xoa Rent.
Though m the same-building as the
Noon Rest rooms. - the W. C. T. U.
rooms hare no connection with the
former beyond the fact that both are
intended for the use of women who are
employed In the business part of the
city or who are here from other cities
or from the country on shopping expe
ditions, and it is probable that one will
supplement the other as they are pres
ently located.
Members of the W. C. T. IT. are en
thusiastic in the support of the enter
prise and this assures Its success. They
endetivored to find a front suite of
rooms, but were unable to do so. They
hope, however, to remedy all defects
in the fullness of time and to add to
the features and scope of the work, a
bureau of information for working
girls being one of the innovations now
planned. Mrs. T. J. Huey will be in
charge of the rooms.

W. S. Gardner had1 been nominated by

as an efficient public servant.' But it
teems the high and mighty senators
from Iowa had not been consulted in
advance. When they found out about
(he nomination Senators DolliveKand
Allison were dtepleased and through
their efforts Mr. Gardner's confirma
tion was postponed and it looks as
though it will not take place, if the
Senators' wishes prevail. For Mr.
Gardner has made the mistake of hav
ing expressed himself as favorable to
A. B. Cummins for governor for anoth

with the approval of the senators-, who
favor Editor Perkins, and Dr, Smith.
Cardner's apponent is a Perkins man.

ed and hooted when she attempted to
Jgive a lecture on abolition'. That lec
ture tbnr "which stated in Buffalo, was
a series of riots but Miss Anthony nev
er flinched. The insults. heaped upon
her culminated in Syracuse,1 When she
was egged, and burned in effigy. Her
life for the past few years had been
in strong contrast to these stormy
times. She lived with her sister, Miss
Mary Anthony.
Horn of Quaker I'n renin.
Miss Anthony was born at South
Adams, Mass., Feb. 15, 1820, of Quaker
parents. There were three girls and
two boys in the Anthony- family, the
boys being the younger. Susan was
a precocious child, and her early
schooling was received in a'' country
school maintained by her father for
his own and neighboring children.
Miss Anthony, resolved to become a
school teacher, attended Friends'
Boarding school at West Philadelphia
during the term of 1837-38, and until
1S50 she taught in various small
schools. The suffrage agitation, which
gained its first impetus about. 1S48,
won her support, and to this work she
devoted her life. v
l-'lrnt Trmprrance Work.
In 1852 Miss 'Anthony aided in or
ganizing the first woman's temperance
society, and she became active in ant!
slavery and woman's rights work. Dur
ing the civil war she organized the Wo
man's National Loyal league and acted
as its secretary throughout the rebel
lion. ,
After the conflict, Miss Anthony de
voted herself exclusively to the cause
cf woman's suffrage. In 1SC8 she
founded The Revolution, a journal de
voted to the suffrage cause, and in the
following year, she organized the Na
tional Woman's Suffrage association,
of which she became president and lat
er honorary president.
In 1872 she was arrested in Chicago
and tried for voting under the Four
teenth amendment. She. was convicted
by a jury and fined.
Vrlte IllMtory of 'Suffering-.
From that tim until her 'death, Miss
Anthony engaged in eight - different
state campaigns for a constitutional
amendment enfranchising wromen, and
she was a familiar, figure In the halls
of congress, where she' appeared be

Miss Anthony's home .life .was ideal.
