IIFER sARIsI
SUFFRAGE PARADE
WHOLE METROPOLITAN COM.
PANY EXPECTED TO MARCH IN
WASHINGTON.
q

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 2O.-Ali.
nouncement has been made by those
in charge of the woman's suffrage DEM
onstration to take place in Washing
ton during Inauguration week that the
entire Metropolitan Opera company
would come to Washington to march
| in the suffrage procession. Miss Flora
Wilson, daughter Of the Secretary OF
Agriculture, who is professional con
cert singer, said that the engagements
Of the leaders of the company are
being arranged so that they can be
here for the demonstration.
Nine. Nordlca was in Washington
yesterday, and had long talk with
Miss Wilson, who is authority for the
statement that Nine. Nerdica prom
Used to take the part of Columbia In
the series of tableaux 70 be presented
on the steps of the Treasury Building
IL she could arrange her engagements
30 as to be here on March 8.
Singing Societies in Line.
Miss Wilson announced also that
singing societies from New York
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Baltimore, De
troit, Omaha. Spokane, Columbus
Philadelphia and other places had
agreed to take part in the parade.
There is an air OF greater activity
at the suffrage headquarters where
a force of clerks are at work under
the direction Of Miss Alice Paul, of
Philadelphia. Mrs. Patricia NJ.
Street, daughter OF Sir Paul Eliot,
former chief justice of Australia.
Bachelor members Of the inaugural
committee were startled yesterday
when an official announcement issued
from national suffrage headquarters
led them to believe that single men
would not be safe without police pro.
lection from the army OF suffragistf
that will invade the capital the first
week in March.
After announcing that more than
score OF nationally prominent suf-
fragists. some OF them pretty young
girls, would dash around Washington
during Inauguration week holding
open.air meetings" the declaration
added:
No Man to Escape.
mot single man who attends the
Inauguration will be allowed to de.
part without having heard at least
one suffrage argument.
When the apprehenslvc bachelor
committeeman automatically sought
to ascertain whether the argument"
to be put to the visiting single man"
had to do with matrlmony they were
laughed to scorn. The women said
the Interpretation placed on their
public announcement was perfectly
silly"
The suffraglsts have been so active
in reserving rooms for the visiting
women who will march in the
suffragists parade on March 3 that
the Inaugural committee finds itself
embarrassed. 1t is declared that ac'
commcdations during inauguration
week will be scarcer than ever and
the Inaugural committee on Public
Comfort is putting forth extra efforts
to provide for the crowds.

los years OF age, and who is now

ambition to live until he is $50 years
old.
Despite his great age, the old man is
spry as many OF so or So years. He
marches every day to the union com.
missary and draws his daily rations.
Mrs. Adkins the third, accompanies
him, but he walks without assistance
and carries his supply of food home
with him. Election morning, his was
the first ballot in the box, and he pre-
dicted Wilson's election by tremend-
Gus majority.
He has faint recollection OF the
war OF 1912, and is keen as briaF
on events along in 1920 and 1885, He
considered William Henry Harrison
the greatest man this country ever
produced.
Talking with a friend he said: 81
have always used tobacco in. some
form or other, and have not sustained
any injury therefrom, but l do not at
tribute my great age and strength to
that. Iathink my long and healthful
life has been due more to continual
exercise than anything else"
Every day, rain or shine, Uncle
Nathan" and : pack OF fox hounds
ramble over the hills, for an hour OF

oil is taken, and a few light gymnas
tics follow.
II expect to live at least $50 years,
