The city council held a short session last
night at which matters In connection with
the proposed paving of certain . street

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Oct 17. (Special.) The
experiment of balloting by voting machines
will not be given a trial In Iowa this year.
The scheme so far a It related to Des
Moines snd Polk county has failed.' Some
time 'ago the county made a contract with
th manufacturer for fifty -one of the" Uni
versal voting machines at a cost of $500
each, to be' delivered Jby -October. 1.- The
company did not deliver them on that data
and was granted until last Saturday to de
liver the machines. Thirty of them were de
livered and the company claimed that the
others were made, but not yet tested and
they would be delivered In a few days. The
county board today .refused to. grant any
further extension of time and canceled the
whole contract. This was ma (to necessasy
by the fact that if there, should be an ulti
mate failure of the company to deliver the
machines It would be too lte next weak to
prepare the ballots In the ordinary way and
any ' further delay would endnnger the
election In the county. . The company was
under $10,000 bonds to deliver the machines
on time. The failure will be a disappoint
ment generally In the state,' since It wss
regarded as a favorable time for the testing
of the machines, and If they were success
ful here- they would be generally adopted
In the state.
.' Old fis-ldler's Sadden Death.
Thomas Smith, a veteran of the civil war,
aged 66, died suddenly In bed, and his wife
on awakening found him a corpse. He hsd
often' told his wife that he would die In
this way and the prophesy was fulfilled. He
waa a 'laboring man and lived hi humble
quarters.. Heart failure was set down by
ths doctors ss the cause. of death.

Th Omaha club women, supplemented by
a large delegation of club women from
Council Bluffs and many who ar not club
women at .all. nearly filled the auditorium
of the First Congregational church yester
day afternoon to hear. Mrs. Nellie Kedsle
Jones, of Kslamasoo, Mich., apeak on "Ra
tional Education for - Future Home
Makers," Mrs. Jones Is enroute from th
Stste Federation meeting at Seward, wher
she spoke, and la among the foremost
teacher and lecturers of the day on the
science of home making and domestic
science. "The velue of any life," she said,
"Is based upon It ability to meet the de
mands made upon it. Few people nowadays
ask 'Who are your but Instead they de
mand to know what you know and what
you can do to make the world a better
place to live In. Today the world demanda
an unselfish -education . that can and will
spread Its advantages abroad." And then
she compared the education of the boys and
the girls of the past;, the framing of the)
boys before they were entrusted wlth their
responsibilities snd the welfare of the
world and the Indifference and neglect of
the education of th girls, who aa mothers
aid wives and home makers hold so much
In their keeping snd need the best train
ing thnt.csn be given them. And this train
ing they are coming to hare along with the
boys: hcglnnlng In that school of Mary
Lyon and extending abroad all are being
taught the practical lessons of living. "The
girl must have home economics In the
school, for sttb does not get It 'at . horn
now; there Is too much required of her
socially. In her church and otherwise, and
her education should be such that she can
apply It to her after life, which with th
great majority of. women has largely to do
with home and home making.''
Following Mrs. Jones' address an Infor
mal reception was held In the club parlor.
At the business meeting which preceded
the program it was decided that the club
should continue to ' meet la its present
rooms In the First Congregational church,
a reduction having been made In the rent.
The chapel and two class rooms are given
for the year for $.VK), and the use of tho
auditorium seventeen times for an addi
tional $100, with the privilege of renting
when needed for $12.50 each time.
Mra Mary O. Andrews, the newly elected
president, made her Inaugural address, and
among 'other things made' the' following
recommendations: . That an effort be made
by the educational committee to bring about
a closer co'-operatlon between the teachers.
Board of Education and patrons; that a
wipe and united effort be made during the
year to secure the election of at least one
woman on the school bosrd; that--a com
mittee of on be appointed to bring before
the club matters pertaining to' civil service
reform; . that a committee, composed of
three members of the social science depart
ment, two member of the art 'department
and two members of the general club,
chosen from other departments, be chosen
to act In co-operation with civil 'improve
ment movements;, that the club do all In
Its power to Influence legislation In favor of
Juvenile courts and the proposed property
rights bill' for women; that an effort be
made to Increase the club membership and
that wise economy be exercised In the ad
ministration of the club's affairs to tho
end of some day furnishing a club home of
its own. .

It can hardly be called a -coincidence that
the two candidates happen to tje, wives of
national candidate of opposing parties,
Mrs. Alton B. Parker an,il Mrs. harles
W. Fairbanks. Some question has been
raised as to Mrs. Fairbanks' eleglbillty to
re-election, but her friends ' all over tha,'
country are willing to take the risk and
refuse to allow her to withdraw, a she
has offered to do. And more than one
reason Is ascribed to their eagerness to
continue her in office. The chief promoter
and active supporter of Mrs. Parker's
candidacy Is Mra.. Daniel Manning, whom.
It will be remembered. Mrs, Fairbanks de
feated In a bitter contest for the office of
president general, and it Is asserted by
Mrs. Fairbanks' friends that the present
opposition to Mrs. Fairbanks Is but a con
tinuation of the former struggle; that Mrs.
Manning's real Interest In Mrs. Parker'
success is prompted by a desire to even up
an old score, for which even the honors of
the office of president of the' board of
lady managers of the St. Louis' exposition
have failed to compensate. And all of this
Is attracting ltd share of attention,, con
sidering the prominence' of the women, and
to add to It, Mrs. Charles Mercer. Hall,
daughter' of Mrs. .Parker and : Mr. Jphn
W. Tlmmons, ' Mrs. Fairbanks' daughter,
are taking an active part. "

"Dear Mrta. Pinkham: Gradual loss of strength and nerve forc .
told me somethiny; was radically wrong with me. I nad severe snooting ,
pains throught the pelvic organs, cramps, and extreme irritation com-
pelled me to seek medical advice.' The doctor said vhat' I had ovarian
trouble and ulceration, and advised an operation. I strongly objected to
- this and decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
I soon found that my judgment was correct, and that all the good
things said about this medicine were true, and day by day I felt lesa -"pain
and increased appotite. The ulceration soon hwiled, and the other
" complications disappeared and in eleven weeks I was once, more strong
and vigorous and perfectly well.
wMy heartiest thanks are sent to you for ther great good you hava
