"What are your views?" Mrs. Glinski was asked "Ada has said about all that I could say. I feel the same way about it.

Women can fined much work to be done there.

Ada and myself believe we are capable of hand ling the task," Mrs. Glinski said Like Mrs. Musselman, Mrs. Glinski has become wrapped, up in the Social ist party because tier husband has been active in the movement. And, like the Musselmans, they have two children a boy and a girl.

Both women are shortly to enter upon an aggressive campaign. They are to address meetings of members of the Socialist party in various sections of the city. Mrs. Musselman and Mrs. Glinski are out and out suffragettes.

Report of Food Inspector Wid mayer Is of a Very Satisfactory Nature.

Of course, the women folks cannot have a voice when it comes to casting a ballot, but there is nothing to prevent their being candidates for the office of school director.

The Truth today presents likenesses of Mrs. Ada Musselman, of 1515 Mulberry street, and Mrs. Belle Glinski, of 740 Locust street, two women who are active in the work of the Socialist party in this county and who have been named by the Socialists as candidates for school director. "They filed their petitions with the county commissioners' office Tuesday, but to make certain that they had not been lost in the shuffle, dropped around yesterday afternoon, to see that their names would surely go on the ballot. The assistant chief clerk in the office assured them that they would.

A Truth reported happened along about this time. "I think it is high time that the citizens of this city took it upon themselves to place women on the school board," remarked Mrs. Musselman, following introductions. "I am a Socialist and proud of it. I couldn't help being otherwise, for I have been married eighteen years to a man who has been a 'Socialist all his life." Her husband, O.

E. Musselman, a local paperhanger, has been a leader in the Socialist party here for years. "Women should be elected to the school board because the handling and training of children is woman's work. That Was Decision Reached By the Coroner's Jury That Made Investigation, TUNKHA.NXOCK, Aug. 30.

the poison that brought death to four and serious illness to three others was wood alcohol is the conviction of the authorities. The coroner's inquest inquiring into the death of Jefferson Ross, one of the victims, brought in a verdict that his death was due to drinking wood alcohol. Ben Meyers was found unconscious on the street yesterday, and it was reported that he was one of the men who had imbibed from the bottles containing the mixture of whiskey and alcohol. He told Chief of Police Meyers last night that he had asked Weiss for a drink from the bottle, but that it was refused him. He is recovering.

Testifying at the inquest held on the Weiss death, Albert Harding said that he saw Ross and Weiss drinking near the witch hazel plant of the Tunkhan nock Distilling company. John Gordon, of Scranton, proprietor of the company, says that no wood alcohol was left in the plant when It was closed for the Summer. But it is the belief cf the notice that Ross secured a jug of wood alcohol at this plant and mixed it with whiskey, believing it to be grain alcohol. The funerals of Weiss and Feldman took place yesterday. The three men made seriously ill by drinking of the mixture were as being recovering slowly.

CITY BRIEFS LOBES HIS BIKE AGAIN. For probably the tenth time. Attor ney C. S. Woodruff, the man who enjoys the honor of being tne nrst Dicycusi in Scranton, is the victim of a mean thief.

His wheel was left standing in front of the Republican building, where he has his office, yesterday, ana has mysteriously disappeared. A report of the theft has been made to the police, and Mr. Woodruff is confident that his property will be recovered. NOTABLE MAY VISIT SCRANTOW.

WOOD ALCOHOL WAS CAUSE OF DEATHS IRIH Suffragettes and Babies Will Make Up Novel Feature of Monday's Parade.

SURPRISES ARE PROMISED Women on horseback and on foot, and babies in their own private carriages will make up a novel feature of the Labor Day parade Monday morning. There will be about ten women on horses; expectations are that there will be 1,000 marching to the rear of them and under the banner of suffraglsm. It won't be known how many babies there will be in line until the parade is In truth, the women of the Equal Franchise league are not inclined to say much at this time about the baby carriage section, which is to be a prominent part of their division. They are promising some surprises and they are keeping the secret better than mere man gives woman the credit for the ability to keep one. "Just watch and see what will be In the carriages, only then will men know," says Mrs.

Maxwell Chapman, head of the Equal Franchise league of Lackawanna county. One month ago, there were 600 members of the league in the county. Then came the announcement that the women were going to make a demonstration on Labor Day, that they were to appear with labor's host in the big parade. The leaders of the league issued an appeal for the worn en who believe in the principles of suffrage to enroll and lo.n tha Monday morning line. Today the league has 1,500 members and 1,000 of these have agreed to participate in Monday's demonstration.

Will Wear White. There will be no freak gowns. Th women will wear white dresses, hats of yellow and yellow badges. Yello'v is the state color of the organization. The hats were especially made for the parade and none will be any "sweeter" or "prettier" or "more gorgeous" than the other.

There will be girls of sixteen and women of a few more years in the women's division. The women are not coming out in parade to present any novel picturesque feature to the pageant. Their whole intention is to show the thousands that they are to be reckoned with in the coming continuation of the hard battle they have been waging for a year in the interest of equal franchise; for the placing of the woman of the. home on the same plane with the man of the home, in the matter of selecting the people who may represent them in public office and who make the laws which they are bound to respect and fix the tax levy upon which they must make their payments with the men. New York and Washington and Philadelphia have had suffragette parades.

But in these events the women had' the right of way all to themselves, except for the police wha rode in the front rank, and the band which furnished the parade music. But Scranton is going them a few better. March With Babies. They will march alongside and in the rear of the babies; close to prominent representatives of the political parties and with painters, carpenters, plumbers, horseehoers, tinsmiths, plasterers, miners, etc. "Will mothers or nurse maids be the power behind the baby carriages was asked Mrs.

Chapman today. "We are not going to satisfy mere man's natural curiosity by telling," she answered. Other leaders of the movement were requested to give out more detailed information relative to this expected bright feature of the parade. "Ask Mrs. Chapman, we have turned the secret over to her," they explain.

Members of the executive committee of the Central Labor union say that the division for the suffragettes is for the women to arrange and that they are not meddling with their preparation of the plans. At Luna Park where the after celebration of the day will be held, the suffragettes will be addressed by Mrs. Rex McCreery of Wisconsin. TELEGRAPHIC TABLOIDS. Miss Rosalie M.

Ladove, recently arrested in Chicago for wearing a bathing suit without a skirt, appeared before a council committee with a request that male bathers be compelled to wear more clothes. To emphasize her remarks in an argu ment over fares. Miss Mary Newaski, the police charge, clubbed a Chicago conductor over the head with a pair of corsets. Jam was the last thing to be auc tioned when the New York suffragists closed their pure food store ending their, experiment to reduce the cost of living. New York highwaymen held up Julius E.

TD EKDHIS LIFE Fashioned a Noose With Belt and Necktie in a Cell At Police Headquarters. PUT IN FOR BEING DRUNK There was plentj' of excitement for a time at.

the central police station last evening, when Walter B. Khoades, of 340 McKenna court, who had been arrested as a burglar was discovered trying to hang himself in his cell. The man had made an ideal hangman's noose with the aid of si belt and a purple necktie and would have undoubtedly succeeded in his attempt had not his fellow prisoners heard him choking as the noose tight ened about his throat and hammered on the bars for help. Sergeant John Thomas heard the racket and went to investigate. Aided by Sergeant Sav itts, Rhoades was cut down and after a fierce struggle was landed in the padded cell.

The man alternately raved and pleaded, and for several hours afterwards continued to yell that he wanted to be allowed to end it all. Rhoades. who is a painter by trade. is twenty eight years old. He was arrested by Patrolman Janssen on the complaint of Mrs.

Joseph voia, or 5s Spruce street. Mrs. Vola declared that Rhoades had entered her room and was ransacking the bureau drawers when she discovered him and notified the police. The man was olainly drunk and had probably en tered the Vola house in mistake. His arrest sobered him completely and he seemed to brood over the disgrace which he had brought on his wife.

This probably accounted for his wild desire to take his life. This morning, Magistrate Millar fined Rhoades $10 on the charge of being drunk and disorderly. The man was in a penitent mood when ar raigned this morning, and the magis trate was inclined to be lenient.
