Chicago, Feb. 26.—Comparatively few Illinois women took advantage of their first opportunity to vote under the provisions of the new state suf- frage law. More than two-thirds of the regis- tered women remained away from the primary elections held in many cities and towns of the state.

Absence of important issues and stormy weather were reported as the reasons for the light suffrage vote in Springfield, Quincy, Peoria, .Bloom- ington and other cities of the state. Seven Chicago women, who had no opposition, were nominated for alder- men. Three were Progressives and four Socialists. JURY FREES YOUNG WIFE Sixteen-Year-Old Mother Accused of Killing Husband.
