Little Barbara's Complaint.
Four-year-old Barbara went to church
with her two sisters and came home
crying.
"What is the matter, dear?" inquired
stroyed by the flames. All but three
ot the patients had to be lifted bodily
from their beds and chairs and taken
to the open air.
Remarkable as it may seem, there
were no lives lost and no one was in-
jured, except for the strain on the
weakened mental faculties of some of
the more violent patients. Under the
excitement attached to the destruc-
tion of the hospital, many pitiful
scenes were enacted, the sight of the
blaze terrorizing some of the pa-
tients.

too lazy to do anything else, will you
please sit near the clothes closet and
blow the smoke in, so as to kill the
moths!"

an absurd devotion to truth to inter-
fere with the fact that I am a gentle-
man."
This was construed roughly as a
plea of guilly.

Suffrage Association expect, by this
means, to secure the submission of a

there may be a change in the word-
ing of Article III of the Oklahoma

which defines the qualifications neces-
