WOMAN'S SIGHT TO"POP THE QUESTION"

(By United Press Lsssed Wire)SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 7.?

It Is "woman's prerogative to"pep the question." This Isthe opinion of Alfred H. Brown,who delivered * lecture beforean sudlence of 47 people herelast night. Here Is what hesaid:

Woman's littls sphere Is thebig sphere of the universe.Many simply gain the nutritionfor the rsce and woman Is themeans ef propagation of theraoe. Therefore since womanperforms the greater functionshe should have the free rightot choice. Bernard Shaw tellsus that woman will proposeanyway, even If she has tochase a man all over Europeand into the Pyrennes moun-tains. It ought to be so. It isthe cosmic principle."

JURY DISAGREES AFTER17 HOUR DEBATE

The fact that the exereme pen-alty for the crime with which hewas charged is death, is believedto have been all that saved AlbertThompson, a negro soldier of FortWright, from conviction this morn-ing, the jury in the case disagree-ing after being out 17 hours.

Thompson Is accused of havingattacked Zampa Smith, a 14-year-old white girl, on August 22. whenhe is alleged to have decoyed herinto the woods on the reservationunder pretense of showing bor aboat In which he was to have takenher across the river.

The girl told a straightforwardstory of the orime, and all the evi-dence pointed to the negro's guilt.Some of the Jury did uot believein exposing the man to the deathpenalty, however, and the jury dis-agreed.

The case will be tried again atthe next term of court.
