IN THE THEATRES
POLI'S

There fs .an undercurrent of feeling
 sall of the:time that Poli is giving the Avery best vaudeville show this season Efhat he has ever given, and that seems to be so. Well, why. It is this way: People of Bridgeport have patroniZed PoN very well and he to return the compliment is doing everything in his fpower, to repay them, and he is gtv- Hing a great laughing show. Better Eget your seats for the closing perform fances.1
 Out of the mazes of just vaudeville EEtands Mile. Dazie's petite and tragic L'Amour de LArtist.' &Dazie's acting Is very fine, and her Etense slirnness is very fine, and the ka5mpleness of 1t all is very fine. Most Epantomimists offer more savage char l acters than the little flower girl of sDazie, but most pantomim1sts are tire .some and their persistent excitement 8is wearing after a few minutes. One EusuaIly longs for the final death to lend the agony, but DaZie's death Rcomes as "a. cruel shock instead of krelief, and. that proves a lot about the Echarm of her acting. 1t seems almost Hike stabbing a pansy in the back, or 1knifng a tiny white rabbit with a kpink nose, when the jealous rival steals sup and kills the softly pretty Mana fMignon Perhaps the finest thing EDazie does is her sublime suggestion kof youth-youthful curiosity, youthful Eenthusiasrn, youthful thoughtlessness land youthful timidity. So many of kour actresses are absurd when they try to suggest just those things. She does not, dance much, but she does not have Ito. A far bigger line of work opens up for Dazie, and she ought really 70 show America the pathetic appeal of kCo1unbine and her family, if she pro educes sPantaloon' later on."-May Mo Kenzie in The Club Fellow.

SUFFRAGETTE RUSH
 ON THE PREMIER
Women Threaten to Storm Building
 Where Asquith is Booked to Speak
WILL WEAR MALE ATTIRE

|. Especial from United Press.)
 Birmingham, England, Sept. 17-The biggest suffragette scrap" of the whole campaign is expected tonight in Bing- Asquith is billed to speak.
 The suffragette leaders have warned the public that it will be dangerous to attend these meetings as, they in tend to storm the buildings if an at tempt is made to exclude them. Many of the suffragettes say they will wear male attire in order to get into the meetings and that once inside, they twill bring the roof down." before per hitting the Premier to speak.
 Suffragette "rushes" are expected and the police have erected barricades sin the streets leading to the halls where the Premier is to speak.
 The managers of to-night's meet cussfng the budget, are drilling corps of "bouncers'' to eject the women if they get noisy and are also covering the windows and .skylights of the buildings with tarpaulins to "shed" the shower of expected missiles.
 The attack on Asquith is part of the general plan of the suffragettes to per- init no cabinet officer to make an un- interrupted address until the cabinet manifests sympathy with the suffra- gette cause. For week Asquith has been lodging the suffragettes, even playing golf with a police bodyguard. Tonight, however, the women say they will "get'' him.
 Extra police have been sworn in for duty tonight.
 There is some alarm lest the suffra- gettes attempt to fire the hall at Bing- ley. This danger was suggested by the comment attributed to Miss Gladys Keevil one of the most active of the suffragettes. who. when told that the glass roof of the building made the stoning of it a dangerous matter, re- piled:
 "Yes, and the building is of such in- fammable material, too."
