nations sweetest song. Miss Beard,
although IL a suffragette, she would no
doubt, vote under the Log Cabin, she
is able to sing in a way that makes one
want to think right and vote right, ac-
cording to his belief and not for falls e
promises. When the last words, "My
Old Kentucky Home, Good night, 4"
pealed forth through the City Hall, an
applause that lasted for many minutes
followed.
In the afternoon Judge Henry De-
Haven Norman, the Democratic par
ties efficient leader In Breckenridge
county, directed the people to the
Court House where speeches were made
by J. w. Newman, Commissioner of
Agriculture, and Col Ben Johnson.
Judge Norman introduced Mr.. New.
man, the first speaker. He paid Mr..
Newman very high compliment for
his efficient work for the farmer and
the uplft of agriculture in Kentucky.
He said he had done more than any
other man in the State to help get the
farmer out of the ruts.
Mr.. Newman took the stand and was
given great ovation, and his speech,
which was directed mainly to the farm
ers, was we'll received and applauded.
He told them that they had been suf
fering and being fooled long enough
under the rule of the trusts and high
protective tariff laws passed by the Re.
publican party, and that it was high
time they were getting out from under
them. He said they had chance now
to free themselves in the election of
Woodrow Wilson. His speech made a
decided impression.
DIR. Milton Board Introduced Col.
Ben Johnson, who is an old friend to
every Democrat in the county. He set
forth many convincing reasons why
Woodrow Wilson will make the people
the best President the country will
have ever known.
His speech had the closest attention,
and held the crowd for more than an
hour. 'It was in this stand at Har.
dinsburg," he said, 81 made my first
announcement as candidate for Con-
gress." He thanked the voters of
Brock nridgc for standing by him so
faithfully. ~ have tried to do my
duty as your representative, and how
we'll l have performed that duty you
know Mr.. Johnson said when he
first went to Congress it was largely
Republican and now the House has a
full working Democratic majority and
an increased vote in the Senate. Mr..
Johnson's speech was not harrang.
He dealt in facts and figures and
showed up the Repu blicans in their un-
to the people in passing
laws that help the trusts and the big
interests.
AT four O'Clock, with the band play
ing, the crowd dispersed, greatly en-.
Unused after hearing the speeches of
Gen. Murray, Mr.. Layman, Col. John
son and Mr.. Newman. They went away
to begin 'unceasing labor for Democ-
racy from this to November s."

POLES

The week of April 29th, which begins next Monday, will be a memorable one for Bridgeport theatregoers. With the memory of past good things fresh In mind, and with the promise of the best stock company ever shown in present-day and up-to-theminute plays coming, the week intervening between vaudeville and stock will be most agreeably filled by Robert M. Sperry's crystal Jubilee production, The Milk Inspector
 The event will be a novelty in that It will be the first time that Polls theatre has been used for an outside proouctlon of the kind since MT. Poli took over the popular playhouse; but in this case Mr. Poli has taken a per sonai interest in the production and foreseen that it will be one of the big gest hits ever shown in Bridgeport, an exception to the usual rule of the theatre
 The Milk Inspector is a bright ana typdcally Sperry- -esque production, full Of wit, humor and local hits Then every member of the cast is a local favorite and the production through out has everything in its favor. delight the keen but: good anumored shaft of wit which Mr. Sperry has thrust at Bridgeport and Stratford people and institutions. The plot of the play is a funny one and leads to a number of the most Imaginable sit uatfons imaginable.
 MT. Sperry himself will appear in the cast of ''The Milk Inspector, and with him such great favorites as Miss Hattie L.. Steinbach, Jack London, Marion Storms, Frank H. Cook, Lydia Elrod, Bernard Brill, Grace Lownds, Charles B. Peck, Charles B. Dicker- son, Iceland LOwnds, Clara Brill, Mar tha Hurd and Charles R. Jewett
 Already the advance sale of seats has been record breaking and theatre goers must bear in mind that the seating capacity of Polls is compara- lively limited and that Standing Room Only Sign" will be in use throughout the week. s'First come. first served, is the strict rule at the box office and seats i'm the pocket are the best guarantee of seats in the audience.
 Many special days will be observed during the week. Monday will witt ness the grand gala opening; Tuesday will be Stratford night and the resi- dents of that town promise to turn out in force to see the good old town in it's stage g-uise; Wednesday will be a professional matinee and many oth- CT events will be announced during the week.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
 AND ECONOMY
Cost of War-Annual Cost of Armies and Navies Two and One Half
 Billions.

London, April 26-A new scheme has been devised to boost the woman suf- frage movement-the idea of Mrs. Ce> cil Chaoman, president of the New Constitutional society for Woman Suf- frage. Circulars have been spread broadcast throughout the country in viting women to sign the following pledge:
 "Feeling that we are called upon to make some sacrifice in the cause of woman's suffrage enfranchisement, I. the undersigned. undertake hence forth to spend the least possible amount in clothing and personal ex- penses of every sort, and to use all I save by this means to promote the suffrage movement until the Parlta> mentary vote has been granted to women"
 Furthermore, each pledge signer is to be provided with printed slips for enclosing with every bill they pay, reading:
 q am pledged to save all I can from personal expenses in order to promote the woman suffrage nove- ment"
 It is believed that tradesmen, mill liners and others receiving these slips will be influenced in favor of votes for women, especially when they look LID the accounts of their customers and note the reduction from, last year.
