There are great talents in reach, if one will only look, and these talents may be a comfort in dark hours that will make life better and happier, both for ourselves and those about us. It is the girl who does things that is attractive. This does not mean painting great pictures or singing in grand operas or writing the popular book, but it does mean cultivating the faculty of saying bright things, playing light, catchy airs, acquiring the art of being sympathetic. The girl who outs her own griefs as much as possible aside-- who takes a wholesome interest in life, who cultivates looking for the best in people with whom she comes in contact-- is happier herself and makes those about her happy.

With the exception of Senator RObert L. Owen of Oklahoma those who appeared in favor of the enfranchisement of the women of the land had all their Sunday clothes on. Judge John Jacob Jenkens, chairman of the committee, opened the proceedings. Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton of Warren, O., introduced the suffragists with the remark that she was not afraid of the judiciary committee or anybody else. She was provided with a bell which she rang when she thought the speakers had consumed enough time. The first time it rang one or two of the women looked around in dismay. Once or twice the bell had to be rung with great insistence before the enthused female orator would yield to another. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt opened the arguments by saying that Great Britain had done more its women in the suffrage line that has the United States; that South Africa and Canada had given the right of municipal suffrage to their women, while Norway and Denmark and the other Scandinavian countries had given every suffrage right to their women. The last speaker was Senator Robert Owen of Oklahoma, who made a strong speech for women suffrage. “Every god principle I have learned,” he said, “everything of good morals and good manners, I received from a women. And I have observed in history that just as high as is the position given to women in a nation just so surely will that nation rise to distinction and fame. “I give my adherence to this cause with enthusiasm and with religious zeal. I know when I serve the women I serve God. I know it is a just cause, because I have studied it, and I have studied deeply. As the women are, so is the nation.

August 14, has completely broken down and confessed that George Richardson did not assault her, in an affidavit which she freely and willingly signed the first of the week requesting State’s Attorney Hatch to release him from the Bloomington jail. It is not out of place to state right here that “the blood of the innocent Negroes who met their death at the hand of the mob is splattered all over Mrs. Hallam, and the longest day that she lives she cannot escape from realizing that her foolish or childish tale was the direct cause of so much bloodshed,” and the following is the tale she told, which was printed in large type, with most glaring headlines in setting forth her old tale: She claimed that at or near 11 o’clock P.M. “she was dragged by some Negro from off her bed, out of the house through the back yard to an outhouse where she was assaulted, after which she leaped over a back fence and notified her mother-in-la.” While the so-called assault was going on, “she claims that she never lost consciousness,” and yet notwithstanding the fact that she lived in a double house, no one heard any scuffling or noise, and with these facts before her eyes she had the nerve to relate her tale of assault, and the morning after it was supposed to have been pulled off, she was at the police station looking as bright and fresh as anyone could look. Richardson was one of the colored men arrested charged with committing the crime and brought before her for identification, and she said that more of them was the guilty man. Afterwards she said that she believed that if Richardson would change his clothes she could identify him. He was arrested by the officers on his way home, his clothes were changed and he was again taken before the woman, this time in the county sheriff’s office. She conversed with him and said that if his voice sounded like that am the man who insulted her and said that if his voice sounded like that am the man who insulted her and said that if he was not the man he would have to prove it to her. Furthermore she said that she was not positive about his identification as “all colored men looked alike to her.” Richardson protested his innocence and swore that he was at home with his wife all that night and that he retired about 8:30 P.M. His wife, not knowing his statement, gave exactly the same testimony when asked concerning his whereabouts. Nevertheless he was taken to jail and the report was widely circulated that the woman had positively identified him, and that he had confessed.” ...
