JANE ADDAliS OF HULL Black Hills people did not fail to grasp the opportunity to hear what a women who does things, had to say tor they filled the Deadwood theatre last evening at the lecture of Miss Jane Addams of Hull house, Chicago, under the auspices of the Deadwood Equal Suffrage league. The audience contained men and women in all walks of life and from practically every town in the Black Hills. As this had been advertised as the only date in South Dakota that Miss Addams could fill, Lead sent down a good sized delegation but it was announced last evening that she would speak this afternoon at the Recreation building in Lead.

Miss Addams spoke in a clear, con cise manner. She did not seek to antagonize but offered clever proofs of her numerous contentions in regard to women voting and throughout the evening her audience gave her close attention. She is gifted with such an attractive personality and her uplift work in Chicago is so widely known that Mr. Norman T. Mason who in troduced her to her audience most tactfully, was forced to seek oratori cal flights to avoid platitudes.

Miss Addams was surrounded on the stage by a score of men and wom en from different parts of the Hlls. In her talk Miss Addams devoted but little time to generalities but got down to a concrete basis by giving her personal experience In Chicago since the women obtained the vote there. This she did so skilfully and with such delicate humor that she kept her audience thorouhgly good natured. She told of many reforms that the women there had for years been urg ing but had always failed to get. Among these were policewomen to guard the public dances where she al leged that scores of innocent, pleas ure seeking girls annually make their first mistakes.

The women were each year smilingly put off by the mayor until finally the women got the ballot. Immediately 'the chief execu CARDINAL MERRY DEL VAL RECEIVES APPOINTMENT ROME, Italy, Oct. 14.

14. A statement contained fh a telegram from Secretary Garrison that the situation on the border would be bettered, it citizens would not expose themselves to see the fighting, elicited the statement from Sheriff Wheeler that all citizens wounded on the Ameri can side, were shot while going about their own business. and Alsace.Lorraine in the hands of the French. Then wilth the German fortifications' razed, and with the army and navy limited to impo-tency, Holland sees a loss of those guarantees which the European situation has formerly provided. This feeling recently has overshadowed the anticipation that Germany's loss in foreign commerce would In pant become Holland's gain.

To know that until international affairs In Europe had been readjusted sufficiently to establish a new balance of power, Holland would exist entirely by the grace and goodwill of either England or Russia fills the thoughtful burgher with dismay. He is in the sad position of disliking the German, loathing the Russian and mis-trusting England. Honest interest he takes only in the French, fearing at the same time that Germany before she succumbs, should such be the case, would make of France the greatest shambles of history. What his country may expect under these circumstances he cannot foretell. He hears rumors that Russia' will try to get possession of the entire Baltic seaboard, and that Hamburg and Bremen are even included in this ambitious plan.

Needless to say that makes the Russian a neighbor a near neighbor a conclusion attended by the thought that after all Germany, by stemming for the tide of Russian advance, did a service, valuable not only to Holland but the remainder of Europe. A prominent editor remarked that for this he could even forgive the Germans the many studied slights that they had heaped upon the Dutch and their country. That is a great deal for a Hollander to say. But war has its brighter side even in Holland. The Dutch papers print side by side and recently with con- KING AND GOVERNMENT HAVE' LEFT, WHILE 60,000 PANIC- STRICKEN PEOPLE AWAIT ACTION OF GERMANS H0SPITALS1E EMPTIED GERMAN AEROPLANE FLIES OVER HARBOR STRIKING TERROR IN THOSE BELOW ESCAPE BY LAND CUT OFF OSTEND, Belgium, Oct.

14. Os- tend's fate hangs in the balance. The government has left and King Albert and the main military quarters, left Tuesday. Sixty thousand panic-' stricken people await the action of the Germans, known to be, twenty miles from the city. The inhabitants are fleeing as fast as ships can be provided.

The hospitals were emp tied today and the docks lined with wounded soldiers. Hundreds were carried on litters and the less severe- --ly hurt, hobbled on canes, supported by nurses, doctors, nuns and priests; The wounded were given the preference on the transports, with twenty-five thousand struggling people massed on the docks and attempting to find places. A German aeroplane flew over the harbor, striking terror In thnne he-low. Escape is cut off on all- sides by land, and thousands were still, gathered miserably on the dock, when the last ship left this afternoon. Most of the business houses closed.

All are seeking to get away. All taxicabs and cab horses, were taken by the government long ago. There is little means of trans- portation. HOUSE ADDRESSES tive of Chicago called the women and told them he had decided that policewomen were a necessity in Chicago and that he would name ten and later he suggested that he would increase this number if the women saw fit. The same desire to grant reforms which they had long has been manifested by other politicians in Chicago, declared Mls Addams, during the past two years.

In fact she said that these politicians had answered the arugment that woman suffrage means lessened chivalry among men toward women, by showing the women of Chicago greater courtesy than they have ever known before. She declared that women of Chicago were taking ad- vantage of their rights through the ballot by forcing many long needed reforms and obtaining results for the city that were generally satisfactory because they now had a direct Instead of indirect influence. Going into the history of the equal suffrage movement, Miss Addams declared that in New Zealand which has had equal suffrage for twenty-five years there is the lowest death rate for children under two years; in Australia where woman suffrage has ex- isted for nearly a quarter of a century, there is a higher birth-rate than in any other Anglo-Saxon country, which she contended, disproved the theory that the ballot' for the women took the time from the family. Wyoming, which has had suffrage' for years has the third from the lowest divorce rate according to poDula-tion, which she declared anftw--t the argument that suffrage increases divorce. Miss Addams outlined the scope of work that women can accomplish without affecting their respectability or domestic standing and maintained that they need the responsibility of the ballot in order to bring their full talents into play.

Conditions have NEWS AND VIEWS OF THE WAR TAKEN FROM DIFFERENT THE FRENCH AVIATORS VIENNA CLAIMS RUSSIANS HAVE EVACUATED i LEMBERG RUSSIANS DEN HAVE ABANDONED SIEGE OF PRZEMYSL LONDON, Oct. 14. While it is fully expected the Germans will reach Ostend and other points in the northwest of Belgium, if not already there, they are expected to meet stubborn resistance, in their attempt to extend the right wing of their 'army to the French northern ports. They have already fallen back in this region, iu the face of the allies offensive. A few days ago the German cav-ealry was fighiting as far west as Hazebrouck and Cassel.

Today, according to French official information, the front of this battle extends from La Bassee to Ballieullon on the Belgian frontier, while across the border the French have occupied Ypres." This shows that the attempt to work around the allies' left has failed. The German right is bending back toward Lille and Courtrai, both of which the Germans occupy, with strong forces. Here the heaviest battle will be fought. The censorship has prohibited any mention of the operations north of Arras, which probably is responsible for the belief thalt the allies are preparing a "smashing blow, to be more crushing in its effect, the longer delayed." The German report that two French cavalry divisions have' been destroyed. Is denied, and it is asserted the French aviators have Inflicted heavy losses on the German cavalry.

It is declared also that the Germans are not in contact with, the Verdun fortress; attempts to do so have failed. In their efforts to cross the Meuse at St. Mihlela, the Germans were outflanked. German reports, via Rome, say the( struggle is just beginning; if necessary men are available for compulsory service and many volunteers additional. Vienna claims that the Russians have evacuated Lemburg.

The Russians deny they have abandoned the siege of Przemysl. Military critics would not be surprised if Russia JONES PHILIPPINE BILL PASSES ROUSE BY VOTEOF 211 TO 59 PROVIDES FOR INDEPENDENCE FOR ISLANDS AS SOON AS A STABLE GOVERNMENT CAN BE ESTABLISHED WASHINGTON, D.

14. South Dakota fair Thursday and Friday with slightly rising THERE IS EVERY INDICATION THAT TURKEY WILL BE DRAWN INTO THE WAR PORT. UGAL WILL MOBILIZE quits Galicla and concentrates her forces, for the supreme struggle, in Poland. There was nothing new today concerning the battle on the west Prussian frontier. There is evrey indication today that Turkey and Portugal will be drawn into the war.

Portugal has not declared war on Germany, as re ported earlier, but a partial mobiliza tion of the-forces will be ordered to morrow and martial law will be 2e clared in the Portugese Congo. She has an alliance with Great Britain, which is purely defensive, but that her sympathies, are with the allies al so is known. She had difficulties with the Germans in Africa. The former German cruisers Goe ben and Breslau may be responsible for involving Turkey. Ostensibly they were sold to Turkey but are still manned with Germans.

They are cruising on the coasts of the Black sea. Should Russian ships sight them, an engagement is possible General Botha, premier of the Union of South Africa, has sent troops to quell the Maritz uprising. The rebel force is not believed to be large. Germans Pressed Bark LONDON, A statement from the official press bureau tonight, says: "British troops have been engaged with ithe enemy toward the left the allied line in France, with the result that the Germans have been pressed back slightly on the flank.

The democrats on the finance committee eliminated the proposed tax on propriatary medicines and ac cepted an amendment eliminating bills of lading on freight, express shipments of newspapers, and exempting newspapers shipped In the county where published.

14. The Matan-zas of the New York and Porto Rico Steamship company sailed last Wednesday for Rotterdam to load a cargo of dyestuffs, chemicals, and sugar beet seed urgently needed In America. The ship Is expected to reach the Dutch port In about nine days. THE HAGUE, Oct. 14.

Holland at present has no politics. "It is a blessing," said a very intelligent burgher. "For the time being we have forgotten the awful strife which during the last ten years had made Holland a political mad house. For once Protestant Holland and Catholic Holland realize that they have something in common." But while Holland has no politics, It has political fears. Conscious of their weakness her people ask: "What if the Germans lose? What it they win?" England is not trusted', of course.

The Boer war was a Dutch affair these men will tell you, and (the end of the two South African republics is too recent an event to have 'been forgotten, notwithstanding what Louis Botha and other Boer leaders have said. Under the old arrangement Holland was able to play no Inconsiderable role in Europe. With the Triple Entente occupying fully the attention of the Triple Alliance, Holland managed to look after her own affairs without interference. What is more, her East Indian possessions were then considered absolutely safe. Now.

the colonies have become the subject of much worry. Java, Sumatra and Borneo are desirable property and while there is nothing to indicate that they will not keep them, It is felt that it is far better to have an internationl political condition under which the cupidity of one great power checks that of another than to depend entirely upon the good will of any single power. For the taking of the Dutch East Indies from the Dutch Germany would have gone to war had she been left out of the deal. It Is said bere. The Hollanders confess, when they will talk at all, that they are apprehensive over the great war.

With Germany defeated they see Schelwlg-Holstein again Danish, East and West Prussia and Posen Russian (Continued on Page Bight) (Con tinned on Page Four.).
