LONDON, July 11. -The recent meetlwr
between 1'rlmo Minister Asquith and the
women representing Sylvia 1'ankhurst's
East End Suffrage club Is unlquo In Eng
lish history, for never before have women
workers of the lowest social class told
their wago grievances to so high a per
sonage.
The average wage of women through
out the country, Mrs. Julia Scurr told
the prime minister. Is but 7 shillings a
week. Many women, she said, supported
children and parents on this, although tho
Immigration board has held that a woman
cannot live In London on less than IT
shillings and 6 penco a week. To small
wages nnd the severity of tho strugglo
was attributed the largo number of sul
cldes among married working women of
the city. Mrs. Scurr said the poor law
attached harsh and humiliating terms to
the relief given and was thoroughly hated
by the Indigent.
AVonicn Iiiiiirlnoiicil for Tairn.
In justifying the demand of the work
ing women for suffrage, the delegates
told the prime minister that thoro da not
seem to be any other way of making
their wrongs known to the public. Women
are still sent to prison for Inability to pay
their taxes, and few of those who suf
fer from drunken and brutal husbands
can afford the luxury of a divorce.
One of the suffragists, Mrs. Hughes,
opened her argument by laying on the
premier's table a brush that retails at 10
shillings.
"For my share In making that 1 set 2
pence," said Mrs. Hughes.
Her pay, she explained, was 2 penco
for filling 200 holes with brlsttes, and her
husband got 2 pence penny for finish
ing the brush To support her home re
quired ' fourteen hours work a day.
Another delegate said Bhe was rearing
a family of six children under tho age
of 13 on her husband's pay of 23 shillings
a week as a docker.
A pitiable story was related by a woman
who had started to work In a Jam fac
tory at the age of 11. When left a widow
with two children she shared her small
room with an unfortunate girl whoso
baby had been born In a workhouse. As
the widow's wages could not feed them
all, the girl drowned herself and baby In
tho Thames.
Mr. Asquith In reply said that It would
be perhaps difficult to get substantial and
Intelligent reform In the east end unless
the women themselves had a voice In
choosing the members of Parliament. But
their problem was such that it could not
bo solved by any short cut. He promised
to consider their case fully.
Although the premier treated the dele
gate as non-militants an.d attacked mili
tancy, tho East London Federation, which
they represented, has never repudiated
militancy. Nor have the delegates.

British Expedition
Will Spend Six Years
Charting Seven Seas
LONDON, July 11. Six years at sea and
a voyage of 21.000 miles to hunt and
chart islands, reefs and banks of doubt
ful location Is what the British Antarctic
and Oceanographlcal expedition now pro
poses to do for tho benefit of the world's
merchant marine. Originally Sir Earnest
Shaclcleton and J. Foster Stackhouso in
tended only to survey and chart the coast
of the Antnrctic continent, looking for
menaces to shipping as might He on their
voyage down and back. But the charts
disclose so many points marked D., P. D.,
nnd E. D. doubtful, position doubtful and
existence) doubtful-that tho explorers
have added two and a half years to their
projected voyage, which starts next De
cember In the "Discovery."
The seven seas have never been accur
ately charted, because, says Mr. Stack
house, "belpg everybody's business It was
nhodv'i business to do It." Even the
north Atlantic has Its doubtful Islands
and sunken rocks. Four different mar
iners, previous to the Titanic disaster, re
ported seeing rocks near the point where
tho ship went down, and this is one of
the first things to be investigated by the
discovery. Polynesia, Melanesia and
Malaysia are notorious for volcanlo and
coral obstructions, and the Panama canal
will open new routes through theso dan
gerous seas. The South American and
African coasts havo their doubtful rocks.
Mr. Stackhouso considers It Just ns Im
portant to find out that a menace does
not exist as that It does.
The now sea charting expedition Is fi
nanced by public contributions. Its fif
teen officers and scientists have given
their work for the next six years gratis.
The only expenses besides tho equipment
are those Incidental to running ihe ship
and the pay of the crew of nineteen men.
The foremost hydrographer of Great Bri
tain. Captain J. A. Rupert Jones, will
have charge of the soundings and
Lieut. Humphreys will do the land sur
veying. Various other kinds of scien
tific work are planned, including observa
tions as to the magnetic pole.
Existing charts dlsc!oj facts which
have a disturbing Influence on traffic,
such as tho presence of shallow surround
ings in areas of deep water. Such places
will be carefully searched for submerged
rocks. All corners of the world will be
visited and studied by tho expedition.
The Discover' Is a wooden ship With
steam auxiliary, especially designed for
work In icy waters, and she will carry
the latest sounding machinery. Wlilla
the voyage Is planned to last six yea.it,
the officers and crew are signed on for
seven In event of delays.
BERLIN, July 11. Tho unceasing criti
cism of press and parliament Is slowly re
ducing the number of cases of mistreat
ment of soldiers, but a recent report
shows that 490 non-commlssloned officers
and officers were convicted of such of
fenses last year. This was a reduction
of ninety cases from the figures of five
years aco.
Theso 4M convictions by no means Indi
cate, howover, that only that number of
prlvato soldle.rs wero brutally handled
during the J'onr. A recent case, nnd one
by no means unusual, was the convic
tion of a non-Coinmlssloned officer of tho
Third Bavarian regiment, who was
charged with no less than ninety offenses
against tho men under lilm. One soldier
wns lamed by being struck on the knee
cap w'th a gun butt, nnd there were
dozens of cases In which recruits wero
choked and struck In the face. It Is not
long since a captain was forced to leave
the service after his third conviction for
mistreating recruits. The charges against
him covered brutal treatment In H0 cases.
Complaints of theso conditions, made In
tho llolchstftg, havo from time to time
moved the minister of war to declare
that the government whs equally con
cerned and wns doing Its best to put a
stop to then). Figures have been quoted
to show that cases of mistreatment arc
gradually growing less common, and It
has been declared that the government
desired that pun'.shment of tho offend
ers be exemplary.
Si'tilcnce Too Mild,
With all credit to tho minister of war,
It must nevertheless be said that sen
tences In the majority of these cases
are extremely mild and by no means cal
culated to discourage brutal officers from
a repetition of their offenses. The non
commissioned officer Just mentioned, was
sentenced to 'threo months and fifteen
days' Imprisonment and degraded. This
Is a really scvero sentence, but It Is
at the same time a most unusual one.
Not only Is Imprisonment for such a
term rarely meted out, but degradation
is still rarer.
Tho following case Is typical of tho
nearly ton cases occurring on an avcrago
each week. A non-commissioned officer
of tho Third Ouard Field artillery regi
ment commanded a recruit to clean har
nesses. He was not satisfied with tho
recruit's work and started expressing his
dissatisfaction by striking tho man over
the head with a bridle. Ho then forced
him to march up and down In the Btablcs
and to do setting up exercises, including
tho fatiguing "knec-hend" until the re
cruit fell from exhaustion. He kicked
him in tile thigh and on tho knees and
otherwise maltreated him. The recruit
was removed to the field hospital suf
fering, among other things, with concus
sion of the brain. The court-martial con
demned tho officer to five weeks' light
arrest.
Older Prlvnten Also Guilty.
It Is not only certain officers who mis
treat recruits. Tho latter. In the ab
sence of officers, are Mibject to the older
privates, and man' crises of mishandling
Involve those older men. In a recent
caso, one of these was sentenced to nlno
weeks' Imprisonment for mistreating a
recruit In such a manner that one of tho
victim's eardrums was ruptured, causing
partial deafness.
On tho other hand, there Is short shrift
for the recruit who raises a hand to de
fend himself against even the most brutal
assault from a superior. He Is certain
of Imprisonment for a long term.

Tho hour-glass shape of the
worm keeps three teeth always
in contact with the wheel. This
reduces tooth pressure, allow
ing a thicker film of oil between
teeth, and thus insures perfect
lubrication. That is the secret
of the efficiency of the Woods
Worm Gear Drive- The oil
drains away from the motor
by gravity. Large bearings
assure perfect alignment with
practically no friction.
Call or write for our new catalog just issued. It shows
our new models, gives full descriptions, and tells about
many other mechanical refinements which make the Woods
the easiest running, most enduring electric car.

Liberty of Speech is
Becoming Curtailed
in Parts of Greece
SALONIKA. July 11. Liberty of
speech Is becoming so curtailed In
Greece that one dare not criticise even
the street car service, as an Austrian i
resident learned here recently.
The street car company had Just raised
the price of first-class fares, and whllo
speaking to a friend on a car the Aus
trian took tho officials to task on this
account. Another passenger, overhear
ing the talk, summoned gendarmes, who
arrested the critic. Only on protest by
the Austrian consul was he released.
Before the Grecian occupation; the
Turkish authorities left the street car
management free to employ Turks,
Greeks or Jews, as It wished, and the
men were allowed to dress as they
pleased. Now, to force out the Turks,
the Greek officials have "Invited" tho
company, which Is Belgian, to order tho
men to wear caps. The result aimed at
was accomplished, since tho Turks,
rather than give up tho fez, resigned.
In this manner, the Moslems have been
forced out of employment In many other
quarters.
SUMMER traveling finds much
favor with Oma'ua club women,
so that the oxodus of club
workers 1b quite marked. Their
return, however. Is character
ized hy renewed Interest and
enthusiasm for taking up the work again.
One mother stated that sho planned to do
nothing so much as to entertain for her
children and their friends and to devoto
herself entirely to their pleasure for tho
wholo summer.
Mrs. M. D. Cameron, former president
of tho Omaha Woman's club, left Wed
nesday for Lake Okobojl to spend the
summer.
Mrs. F. H. Cole went to Warren, III.,
following the convention of tho General
Federation of Women's clubs, but Is ex
pected home shortly.
Mrs. W. A. Challls of the musical . de
partment of the Woman's club will go to.
the country for a brief stay.
Judge and Mrs. Ben S. Baker leave tho
latter part nf the month to go abroad.
Mrs. Esther M. Allen, mother of Mrs.
F. J.x Blrss, left Wednesday for Hot
Springs, S. D. She will f.pcnd a few days
In Chadron enroute. Mrs. Blrss Is con
templating to trip to Mnnttou, Colo., later
In the summer.
Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Marloy leaVe this
month for tho woods of northern Minne
sota where thcro is quite a colony of
Omnhans. They will spend a great deal
of their time In fishing. Mrs. C. B. Coon
Is alxo contemplating a trip to Minne
sota to visit her niece.
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Smith left last week
and will take the lake trip to Montreal,
Quebec and tho Thousand Islands. They
will bo gone several weeks.
Mrs. S. A. Collins Is planning an auto
mobile trip through Iowa shortly.
GERMAN WINE INDUSTRY
SHOWS BIG SHRINKAGE
HEALTH CERTIFICATES
FOR ALL SWISS BRIDES
GENEVA. July 11. Health certificates
for brides Is the demand of the Swiss
Society of Public Utility for Women, an
Influential organization having branches
In the chief cities of Switzerland, The
aim of the society is toobtaln healthy
wives and children in order to better
tho race and also make for the hap
piness of the home. It has hopes that
later tho government will take a hand
In the agitation and require a certlfl
pf.tc of healtht from both the bride and
the bridegroom before sanctioning a
iiarriage. The society, which is worklnu
very quietly, Is strongly supported by tho
medical profession and the university
professors
BERLIN, July 11. The German wine
growing Industry Is In a bad way. Every
year since 1JO0 there baa been a shrink
ago In the acreage of the (vineyards, so
that the total has fallen from 297,000 to
266,000 acres. As evidence of the. grow
ing distress of the vintners the fact Is
cited that the debts of the fifty co
operative societies of growers orr the
Moselle have Increased from $S15,000 to
$2,000,00) within ten years. The causes of
the decline of the Industry are various:
Increases In the costs of production,
larger Imports of foreign wines, defec
tive German legislation and crop failures
from the ravages of Insects and plant
diseases. Many vineyards have been con
demned and destroyed by the government
as a preventive measure against the.
spread of the phylloxera.
GERMAN ARMY DISCARDS
USE OF THE TELEGRAPH
BEItLlX, July U.-Octobcr I will see
an lncreaso of tho telegraphic detach
ment of the German army by a new
battalion. The designation of these
troops, however. Is only a rcmlnlsconce.
for there will henceforth he no army
telegraphic service. The telegraph has
been replaced by tho telephone The only
disadvantage of telephonic service that
It leaves no written record Is considered
to be much more than counterbalanced
by the fact that the telephonic service
Is faster und does not require a spe
cially trained staff. The general com
manding will hereafter havo at his dis
posal thirty wagons, drawn by 1P0 horses,
and equipped with sixty telephones and
about seventy-five miles of cable and
v.lre.
