Moore died in this city, fol- lowing a short illness, at the age of 56 years. Mr. Moore was the son of the late Michael and Catherine Moore and he had passed most of his life in this city. \He was a carpenter by trade and for some time previous to his death had been employed at Fish- er's Island.- He was twice married but both wives are dead. In politic Mr. Moore was a Republic well known in local political circle: Besides his aged mother he leaves three sisters, Mrs. John Brennan of Taftville. Mrs. Jennie Comstock, and Mrs. Michael Murphy, and three brothers, Cornelius C. Moore, John H. Moore and Luke Moore, Peter Jerome. Peter Jerome, Jr., died Sunday morning at+his home in Ocean avenue, New London. He had beenMsick for several years from kidney trouble and for the last 10 weeks had been una- snle to leave his bed. He was in his fortieth year. Mr, Jerome is survived by his wife, who was Miss Palmer, a son, Palmer Jerome, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Jerome of Leicester, Mass., two sisters, Mrs. J. Clarence Bingham of Quaker Hill, Mrs. Edward Ashby of Leicester, and a brother, Ed- ward Jerome of Leicester. Me. Jerome was born at West Boylston, Mass.,, but had made his home in New London for 20 years. He was a member of Brainerd lodge, No. 103, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, Palestine com- mandery, Neo. 6, Knights Templar, New London aerie, No. 594, Fraternal Order_of Eagles, Mohegan lodge. No. 55, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, New London lodge, No. 360, Benevo- Hose Co. No. 4. Mr. Jerome began to work in New London for the Brainerd & Armstrong Co. as a bookkeeper.

Elsie Nydia Briggs. ? Elsie Nydia Briggs, 8 years of age, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sandford Briggs of Greene, R. I, died at her home early Tuesday morning after a short illness with diphtheria.

The opposing parties to the subject | s !conunue‘ we will Jose more than old ! under discussion were more alike in their aims than were apparent on the | surface. They beth want a betler state. more special justice and the righting ef the wrongs of which so- clety complains. 'This the suffragist says is te be aceomplished by a larzer_electorate and places emphasis upon law. Those on her side say give us not more but better voters, not law but the elevation of the standards of character and citizenship. Burden of Proof on Suffragists. It is not for us to prove that suf- frage would not work well, said Mrs. George. The burden of proof is upon those wanting a change. Gladstone came to see the folly of putting wo- men into suffrage and the suffragists must prove that the avirage voter will be made more safe, more sane, stead- , less emotional, perhaps, through the giving of the suffrage to women. What Is the Vote? What is the vote, she asked. A congressman from Colorado says that it takes no more time to vote than to match two pieces of silk. Results in Colorado would Indicate that there had been much mismatched silk. The vote {8 not a right. The state reserves the right to say in whom it is expedient_to rest the right of gov- ernment. It {s a responsibility and S0 great an authority as Dr. Edward Everett Hale says he does not believe the women want these responsibilities and he does not believe they could carry them well if they had them. It is a costly economic proposition to have two persons to what one can do do_well. ‘Woman's inferiority or superiorty does not rest with doing evervthing that man does in the same way he does, "It is a question of efficiency. Are you going to get a better Conmecti- cut if you give women the vote? It is not for any one group of women that you arq asking but you are ask- Taxation Without Representation. Mrs. George said that she supposed there would possibly be 200 women in the ranks of her hearers who would be moved by the plea of James Otis: taxation without representation is tyranny. But James Otis was refer- ring then to a government over seas and had no thought then of even un- niversal male suffrage. You don’t vote where your property is but where you have your residence and if you say that the vote follows the tax is to say that you don’t like ouir Americah system. If the tax paying woman urges that her lot is hard today because of irre- that with ene exception not one Amer- ican suffracist society has repudi the English militants. If the pranks of these wild women paintings, for we lose the traditional respect in which the English speaking man has always held bis women. / _ Bocialism, Holding up a red banneret with the words Votes for Women on it, Mrs, George said this had come from the suffrage parade in New York. The i H | i national president of the suffrage asso- | cigtion has said: “We welcome every socialist vote” This is something for the middie of the road suffragists to think well about. Feminism. Feminism has been defined as a re- volt on the part of woman against be- ing tagged as someone’s female rela- tive. The speaker asked what was to be expected when it is found incor- porated in some suffragist resolutions that the anti-suffragist who uses the feminist argument is using the tactics of the polecat, when scared. The feminist idea is to have the woman free for a life apart from and in addition to her function of reproduc- tion, and so that it shall not be neces- sary for mothers to leave for any length of time the gainful occupation they may be engaged in. mean a soclal revolution, for never was so material construction put upon woman. We protest against the wisk of a few zealous women. Woman work gets its value and gains its interest because she is not in politics, but is doing a pviece of disinterested work. Women in politics have destroyed this pignifi- cance. The average woman is worthily em- ployed in very old fashioned occupa- tion now and the exceptional woman has every scope to render disinterested service to the state. Answered Questions. Mrs, George answered several ques. tions after her address of over an hour and fifteen minutes, and a large number of cards were signed by those number of new memberships received.
