Show EDITOR PAUSES TO INQUIRE Seems to Have a Feeling That He Is Making an Argument Against Woman Suffrage. . Enemies of votes for women, in search of arguments to confound the orators of the case, may use for what it is worth the following incident which happened in Madison square one day last week: A young woman of pleasing and picturesque pic-turesque aspect came northward from Twenty-third street across the square. She struggled under the weight of a dog-hamper, and inside one could see a bright-eyed, restless fox terrier, eager ea-ger to be let out. The woman carried'i a leash in her left hand, and the dog had on a collar with a snap. An interested in-terested observed followed the woman. She struggled on six blocks up Madison Madi-son avenue before she reached her destination, a residence on the east side of the street. Then she unlocked the hamper, snapped the leash on the dog's collar, and took him inside the house. Why had she carried an able-bodied, able-bodied, 25-pound fpx terrier, who wanted want-ed to be let out, all that distance? New York Evening Post. |
