' PROMINENT local surfragist was made the subject of a little feat-
lire story recently. In wMch her culinary accomplishments were
commented upon moat favorably. Accompanying the article was
a picture of the aforesaid suffragist.
Now the suffragist's husband strenuously objects to the newspaper
publicity which has followed his better half ever since her Identification
with rotes-for-women propaganda. Knowing this to be the case, his wife
hid the Sunday paper In which this article appeared, but when he came
down to his office the next morning, his office girl very innocently called
his attention to the article.
That evening, he entered hla home In high dudgeon and once more
expressed himself in regard to his wife's copy-furnishing propensltiee.
It chances the husband Is quite a sportsman and devoted especially to
golf. Several years ago, he waa abroad and picked up. In London, a golf
outfit of most bewildering array of plaids, checks and stripes. When he
appeared on a local golf course attired In these knickerbockers, he caused a
small-sized sensation. A local sporting reporter dnbbed them "Mr. Blank's
cunning trouserettes" which was particularly funny In view of the fact
that the gentleman Is a somewhat hefty Individual.
Just as the husband was In the midst of his harangue, a remembrance
of this flitted through his wife's mind. "How abont the trouserettes?" she
exclaimed. He was Immediately squelched and now the redoubtable suf
fragists looks for little comment from her husband on this subject.

Judge Comstock's
Stenographer Stops
Wheels of Justice
The mill of luetics ground not only
slowly, but came to a dead stop In Jus
tice A. II. Comstock's court yesterdsy
whlle his stenogrspher held the judge's
sest and demanded that she be shown
statutory authority for a certain pro
cedure. The attorneys were chagrined.
for they had not been In the habit of
citing law to the stenogrspher. P. W.
Drisooll, attorney, had asked for a
change of venue after eight days' stsy
In a esse of forcible detention.
"You can't do that," piped the ale-
nogrspher and clerk. There Is no law
f or "
Judge Slabaugh, who waa counsel for
the other side, dropped his jaw and looked
astonished. Judge Comstock, who should
have been on the bench, sat beside the
bar of justice and looked vacantly around.
"Oh, yea, we can," replied Attorney
Drl "coll.
"Show me the statute, show me the
statute." Insisted the girl.
"Well, well," ssld Drisooll. 'I have
never been called upon before to cite the
law to a judge's stenographer. If the
court wishes to be informed, of course,
1 would be glad to give the citation."
"Ha won't even show 'ms the statute,"
shouted the girl, almost desperate to gain
her point Dy this time. Judge Comstock
decided he wanted to be Informed, and
thus, came to a conclusion a situation
that embarrassed both court and counsel,
to say nothing of the persistent girl who
was determined not to be bluffed by any
lawyer, without authority.

BAKERS TO ASK FOR
HEW BREAD WEIGHT
Want City Ordinance Changed So
They Kay Make Loaves Any
Site They Choose.
WOULD NOT CUT THE PRICE
Another fight on the weight of
loaves of bread is imminent In the
city council chamber. At the regu
lar meeting of the city council Tues
day morning Mayor J. C. Dahlman
will offer a resolution to take from
the files the bread ordinance which
wan plaoed on file May 20, 191, and
which was the' center of a hard fight
nearly two years ago.
The 'exlatlnc law reaulrea that a stan
dard loaf of bread ahall weigh sixteen
ounces and that a double loaf ahall weigh
thirty-two ounces, regsrdlss of ths
price. John Orsnt Pegg, city Inspector
of weights and measures, sought to en
force that ordinance with the reevlt that
ha won In the police court anl the case
was appealed to the district court, where
It now rests In peace.
Loaf of Any Weight.
The ordinance which the bakers now
propose to bring up provides for slxteen
ouncs and thlrty-two-ounre loaves, and
also provides that bakers may make
loaves of sny weight, with requirement
that they stamp their, name and the
weight on the. loaf. In the former fight
the bakers msde It known thst thsy do
not wsnt to depart from the S-cent and
10-cent prices which have been estab
lished. The city Inspector contends that
the weight of the loaves of bread should
be standardised and then let the bakers
fix their prices accordingly.
Ths Inspector explains that the bakers
are paying 7.0 per barrel for flour and
that they can make 100 loaves from a
barrel. Helling these loavea at a whole
aala rata of twenty-four for II, he figures
the bakers make not leas than per cent
profit.
Mr. Pegg Is going to fight this ordi
nance when it la taken from the flies
ana brought up for reconsideration. He
holds that ths existing ordinance. If en.
forced, would give the public ample pro-
tection.
