Is woman suffrage coming?
It begins to look so. Out in
Kansas in a recent election
women having the right to vote
did vote. They went early to
the polls with the balance of
political power and staid late.
Not merely a Landfnll but 95
per cent, of the registered
female voters. This instance
is bound to exert an influence,
and the chances are that Kan-

CURES ^IL
PECULIAR
4TO WOMBNti
In his last lectlre to juveniles
at the Royal institution. Sir
Robert Ball said, according ^to
the Pall Mall Budget:
A telegraphic message would
go seven times around the
earth in a second, and if a tele-
graphic message cou'd be sent
to the moon it would reach its
destination in a little more than
a second. It would take seme
thing like eight minutes to ar-
rive at the sun ; but how long
did they they think it would
take to get to Alpha Centauri,
traveling thither at 180,000
miles a second i Seconds, min-
utes, hours, days, weeks,
months, would not be long
enough ; it would take not less
than three years, traveling all
the time at that tremendous
pace, before it wonld reach its
destination. If that were the
case with respect to the near-
est of the stars, what must be
said of those which were far-
ther off ? There were stars so
remote that if the news of the
victory of Wellington at Wa-
terloo had been flashed to them
in 1815 on that celestial tele-
graph system, it would not
have reached them jet, even if
tbe message had sped at the
pace which he had indicated
and had been traveling all the
time. There were stars so re-
mote that if when William tbe
Conqueror landed here in 1066
the news of his conquest had
been dispatched to them, and
if the signals flew over the wire
at a pace which wonld carry
them seven times round the
earth in a single second of time
that news would not hare
reached them yet. Nay, more,
if the glad tidings of that
first Christmas in Bethlehem
nineteen centuries ago had
thus been disseminated through
the universe, there were yet
■tars of which ant
could tell them, plunged 1
space in depths so
that even the 1,893 years
that had etspsed sinoe
