The 'Westminster Gazette' -says that when women first took their seats in the Colorado (U.S.) Legislature special notice was taken of them and they were singled out and made to feel like intruders. Some of the male members put bouquets on their desks and that kind of thing, so as to create ridicule against them. Bat that soon passed away, and now women are recognised in the Colorado House on equal terms with the men, and have, it is said, proved to be very useful members.
