WILD WEST SHOW HERE FRIDAY AT
 REDUCED PRICES
Management Makes Concession Because It Desires to Play
 To Capacity.
It will Be Bridgeport's Good Fortune To See Greatest Show of Kind at Half of Regular Price.

Miller Bros. & Arlington, owners and managers of the 101 Ranch wild West show, which exhibits in Bridge port the coming Friday. June 12, an nounce the reduction of the admission price to the big show to 25. cents.
 This reduction." said a. representa- tive of the 101 Ranch show, "does not. mean any deterioration in the char acter of quality of the show. As a matter of fact the 101 Ranch show is, larger than ever this year and it's performers have eIicited the unquali-' fled praise of the newspapers in New York, where the show exhibits in Madison Square Garden for three weeks; in Philadelphia, Boston and other cities. The Boston Globe, noted for it's conservatism, declared recent 1y that the '1O1 Ranch gave the best Wild West exhibition ever seen in that city. There are more cowboys, more coWgirlss more Indians and oth- CT Wild West people than ever be- fore, and this season the army of typi- cal Westerners is augmented by company of Mexican rebels from Tor reon and Chihuahua.
 So you see it is not a matter of cut ting the show to fit the reduction in price. The reduction is a matter of expediency because of the generally unsettled financial conditions and be- cause the management believes the public will turn out in such increased numbers under the stimulus of the lower price that the apparent loss of revenue will be more than made up by the increase in attendance.
 stThe 1O1 Ranch has never before exhibited for less than a fifty cent admission price. and there is no ex- pectation of adoption the 25 cent price as a, general policy. Just at this time. however, it is felt that the amusement going public would ap- preciate this concession on the part of the management

DANISH DEPUTIES FAVOR
 SUFFRAGE FOR WOMEN

Copenhagen, June 1o-The eonstftu- tional amendment giving the suffrage to women and removing all property qualifications for the exercise of the vote was passed by the Danish Cham Der of Deputies today by a vote of 1o2 to G. The amendment also deprives the Crown of the right to name 12 of the 66 members of the Upper House and amends the system by which the remainder are chosen.
 Under the present system two-thirds of the electoral college which chooses the members of the Upper House rep resents the largest taxpayers only one third remaining to represent the rest of the country.
 Following it's adoption by the Depu- ties, the amendment was sent to the Upper House. The Conservatives, act ing in accordance with a decision reached last Wednesday, absented themseH ss, thus preventing a vote, as the rules provide that one more than half of the members must be present The coalition of the Moderates, Radi- ca1se and Socialists was insufficient to overcome this.
 Premier ZapIe announced that the government will urge the King to dis solve the Upper House as a result of this action, on the ground that the obstruction was unconstftutionaL

 One day two of the little field mice started out to find some thing nice to eats and very soon saw a big ear of wheat They both ran Tor it and reached IL at the same time
 Tt is mine" said one and the other mouse sazd- ts79o 1t is mine"
 NO it is mine,'' said the other They didn't think of sharing it. but both wanted it all. for themselves.

She seemed to take to me from the first moment we met. and L to her..
 She writes notes to me to call on one pretext or another-to ask advice of me usually ly-saying she depends on me to give my opfmion because she has neither kith or kin-no one else to consult. She knows I have a sweet heart but that made no difference. I am obliged to state to you candfdIy that the fair young widow has gained a great influence over me. She is all that is sweet and begui1ing in woman. things. advise me to keep my troth the widow who seems to fairly adore excellent expectations from inherit anee.
 It usually takes a widow to capture Tickle man; and after she weds him to keep him in his place. think this particular charmer cares more for your prospective fortune than flor you. Do not break the young girls heart. She might never be satisfied with any other love. As for the widow, [ as sure you she would not die of grief over your loss. idows are usually courageous and plucky.
