v..,—« VOTES FOR WOMEN!
v.. —« VOTES FOR WOMEN! AGGRESSIVE MOVEMENT STILL ALIVE IN BARRY. OLD MAN'S HUMOROUS INTERJECTIONS AT TICKET MEETING. CROWD OF BOYS ON THE WARPATH. "Admission Is. and 6d." This intimation, at the foot of the posters possibly accounted for the fiaet that the aissembly room of the Barry Hotel, Barry, were not packed with enthusiasts and others on. Thursday evening last, when woman's claims to the vote were further ad- vanced by Miss Annie Kenney, a prominent member of the Women's Social and Political Union. Miss Elsie McKenzie, who holds the record for hunger-strikimg" in prison, occupied the chair., and although- she only spoke for a minute or so there were early indications that a "youthful coterie" in a corner by themselves intended to make things lively, but the presence of two police officers had a decided influence for peace. Miss Kenney had barely commenced to speak ere the atmosphere reeked with some 'noxious odours. It was surprising, ,she said, that men should condemn the militant tactics of the suf- fragists. She could understand the women, be- cause they had not received political education, but the attitude of the Labour men in partiou- lar passed the bounds of comprehension. When Bristol men condemned the actions of the women to-dlay, they were reiferred, to the Art Gallery, where there were some excellent old prints of the Bristol riots of 1831, when the men liter- ally fought for the vote. "Young boys of thir- teem," continued iMiss Kenney, "allld old men of fifty tell us our placje ds at home minding the I baby. But that is only sentiment; they for- get that five million and & half wouJd have no I home to (go to. if the women did not go out to earn, a living as well as the' men. Besides, we 11a v,en;taill babies to mind." (Loud laughter.) When woman asked for a voice- in domestic re- form, she was told her brain was not as large as >a man's. But woman went in for quality, and -not quantity—(laughter and applause)— and were supposed to be the domestic half of the community. Mii;s Kenney proceeded to speak of the attempt of the Government in their recent Licensing Bill to abolish the 100,000 barmaids employed in the country, and pointed out how dangerous a course this would be even t) the girls themselves.. "Then why didn't they marry the girlsi I queried one of the youths afore-mentioned. "Because," said Miss Kenney, there are more women than men in the world, and we cannot iall be married." (Loud laughter.) It was not right that members .should get up in the House of Commons, and decide what kind of milk the baby should have, and what should be its feeding hours. And if the Tories were returned to power they would get it worse than the Liberals, because the womp's movement was being strengthened and better financed every day. The late Mr. uladstone was a statesman, butther-e were none to-day. They were all I colitio-ians. A Voice: There isn't much difference. Miss Kenney: No, there is not, except that a statesman leads and a politician follows. (Ap- The'speaker referred incidentally to the Irish party, and jvsing alowtly from his seat an elderly man said with great deliberation, "Now, look here, my gel, you .are wandfering. Never mind the Irish party." (Laaighter.) A policeman gently pushed him into his seat, and Miss Kenney said the men were very angry because the women Miterrupted their meetings. But the" militants" believed in, interruptions, and every time she had attended a Cabinet Minister's meeting she had been ruthlessly flung through the doors. That was how they .had broken down the/ silence of the Press, the poli- tician, and the public, and advertised their movement. "I suppose you men atre shocked because we threw a., few stones:?" she queried defiantly.. Tr T, The Elderly Gent. Oh, Mis.s Kenney, Im -rprised. You will never get the vote that way, my dear." (Laughter.) "You forget," she continued, that the men of Bri'sfeol burnt three priaoiMt, and released some of the worst criminals in Bristol for poli- tical liberty." The Elderly Gent.: Rullo, missie, did you Ij-rn,. our Hippodrome. (Loud laughter.) "You ought to be proud," Miss Kenney con- cluded, that we are training Cabinet Ministers to understand what liberty really meants." And then Miss Kenney sat down amid ap- plause, which a, young man vigorously endea- voured to drown with a handbell. The din having -subsided, the elderly gent. struggled to his feet again, and, encouraged by his youthful supporters, said: "I don't want to ask no questions, but I could tell you more in five minutes, my dear, than you've expounded nil night. Now I've got a daughter, in New '0 Zealand with two votes, and I'm in favour of you suffrage people, but you 11 never get it the way you are going on. If my old 'oomam. had t,vj' voter, >o|r bless yer,- she'd chew politics mornin noon and night. (Loud laughter.) The interrupter could get no further, and he left the meeting wdh a courtly bow to Miss Kenney. At the rear of the hall the poliee were endeavouring to eject someone, but Miss Kenney, pleaded that- he should be allowed to remain. Mr. Tudor Jones: If you believe in interrup- tions; maillåm, why do, you find it necessary to VavV a police officer and a detective here to keep a few young men in order. For weeks and weeks,' repl'ied Miss, Ken- ney, ^300 students have attended nearly aHl our meeting's to tackle two women.. During the last fc.rinight we have had to pay 940 in damage t> hfalls alone, aind one man was cowardly enough to cut a coat of mine to shreds with a knife. We were. determined, sir, to have no damage, at Barry." Mr. Tudor Jones: Do you not think it ad- visable that the barmaids you spoke of should be compelled to leave the liquor trade? 'Do that," (Miss Kenney retorted quickly, "and they are immediately driven to seek a living in a, manner ten times worse." "Where does your money come from? This from a vtery obscure corner. Miss Kenney; Give me your name and ad- dress, and you shall have our quarterly balance- sheet. It might (interest you to know that one prominent Liberal nas just given us £ 100. Then the ladies (asked questions, all of them prarjtidaU and iSyftnpath'etiq. When thpy,) had finished, the speaker enquired if the gentlemen wanted to enquire about anything else. A few smiled, but no one spoke. Miss Kenney had won.
GUARD AGAINST WINTER CHILLS.
GUARD AGAINST WINTER CHILLS. Peps The Great Lung and Throat Protector. Cold weather is a. severe tax upon most people, particularly the! aged and ailing. The result is seen in an increased death-rate, due chiefly to pleurisy, pneumonia, and bronchitis, which all, ways attack the weak spot in the chest. Hence it is wisdom on everyone's part to protect vuem- selves against the attacks of the cold-germ" by the daily breathing in of Peps fumes from a Peps Tablet—the wonderful medicine that is conveyed through the throat and bronchial tubes direct to the lungs. With advancing age the lungs and throat are bound to lose some of their vitality, On which the aold weather puts a further tax. lience the number of serious illnesses that arise from a simple cough, or an attack of hoarseness, or a little but neglected tightness of the chest. In Peps, however, the frailest invalids and the most aged have an ideal safeguard and protec- tor. As a Peps tablet dissolves in the mouth, rare medicinal essences are released in the form of a vapour, which is breathed direct into the breathing organs. In, this way any soreness of the throat is at once soothed, inflammation al- layed, and the delicate membrane lining, torn by the strain of constant coughing, is healed and strengthened. The thick phlegm clogging the bronchial tubes and making breathing diffi- cult and rasping is loosened and expelled, and thus the air-passages are cleared and the vital- ity of every part of the lungs, throat, and chest restored to the highest pitch. It is absolutely impossible for oily emulsions and liquid mixtures that are swallowed into the stomach to benefit the breathing organs. There is no passage at all from the stomach to the lungs. Air is the natural food of the breathing organ's hence it follows that a medicine, to benefit the throat and lungs, must be in the form of air, too. Peps are the unique remedy that science has lately discovered to fill this great need. More- over, Peps accomplish the wonderful cures to their credit without the aid of opium, morphia, or any other of the harmful drugs employed in most cough mixtures. Peps are sold by chemists at Is. ltd. or 2s. 9d. a box. Direct at same prices from the Peps Company, Carlton Hill, Leeds. Note that each box bears the guaranteed title, Peps, and that the tablets are encased in silver wrapping and also embossed with the name, Peps.

Mr. Roberts' Band from Cardiff rendered exquisite music, which was greatly appreciated by the' dancers and visitors, who numbered forty. But for two other popuJar dances and other entertainments held Íillr the district the .same night, there is every' reason, to believe the number would at least have been doubled.

CARDIFF EMPIRE.
CARDIFF EMPIRE. MR. AND MRS. LESLIE FABER ON MONDAY NEXT. So great has 'been. the success of Mr. Leslie Faber and Miss Winifred Arthur Jones (Mil's. Leslie Faber), in The Dramatist at Home," produced at the London Hippodrome, that they have been engaged for the whole tour, and by Mr. Stoll's reqiTest will appear at Cardiff Em- pire next week. Their one-act comedy by Mr. Keble Howard is an engaging and witty trifle. Ralph, who has been responsible for successful plays, has reached a. thorny situation in the piece that the is writing. A husband tells his wife that their marriage is -a mistake, and that they are. not a bit suiin 1 to each other. How shou'd the wife treat tins decoration?. He is resolved to try the situation on Margery, who comes to his study. When he -blurts o-ut the unwelcome confession of the imaginary husband of the play, Margery neither treats lira to a burst of indignation nor a flood of tears. She is cool, level-headed, even bantering. It is Ralph that shows want of dignity and temper. Bouncing out of the room for the purpose of looking at the bedroom fire, he gives Margery the opportunity of looking at his script. She soon finds a solution to the situation in the play which she thinks will add to its humour, and, writing it down hurriedly, pins the sheet cf copy to the lamp-shade. Switching off the lights, she reclines on the sofa, hides her face behind a eushioii, and pretends to sleep. Ralph returns and finds the additions to his MS. He then understands what a, real help to him is Margery, who immediately takes him in her arms when he asks for forgiveness. Possibly Margery in future with collaborate with him. The world-famous acrobats, the Craggs, will present their latest acrobatic comedy sketch, and Fred Earle, of "Seawood" fame, will ren- der his ilatest numbers. A very sensational cycling turn will be sup- plied by Staig's Steeple Jack Cyclists, and an original and interestuig entertainment will be submitted by the Gems under the direction of Wallace Kennedy. Other contributors to the same bill include: Rhoda Paul, male impersonator; O'Gust, the famous French mimic; the Brennans, in a c-lever danoing act, and the ever popular bio- scope, with! new and interesting pictures.
