SINGERS MIDGETS.

Not in years has so much interest
been shown in a theatrical announce

as the big feature OF WARS Of the

the Shubert and Klaw and Erlanger
theatres in a big revue, to which
prices OF $3.50 and 50 we're charged.
This is their first appearance in vau-
/ deville. at popular prices, with the
exception Of the engagement at Ham
merstein's.
The midgets really offer nine COM
plete vaudeville acts in one, and their
show runs an hour. Their brains are
wonderfully developed and they show
remarkable versatility and ability TO
entertain. They open with their grand
review as a coaching party and then
start q series of acts. They intro
duce successfully a duet between the
leading man and the prima donna

Ladies, [ he Ayes
Have It On The
Suffrage Question

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The Literary
Digest has taken poll of the press OF
the United States on the question OF
woman suffrage, and the results show
The ayes have it."
Letters were sent to 1000 newspa-
pers in all parts of the country re.
Guesting that they answer two ques-
tons; one to determine the editorial
attitude toward the proposition and
the other to discover the sentiment OF
the community represented. A total
of 526 replies was received and every
state was represented.
The personal views of the editors
were shown in the following vote.
Affirmative, 991; negative, 81; unde-
cided, SO.
The sentiment of communities was
reflected in this vote: Favorable, 237
negativev, 1856; undecided, 1873.
Analysing the poll, the Literary Di-
gest says:
Editors Slightly Chary.
"In the suffrage states, where wo-
men already have encountered all
phases of political experience, a
larger number of communities actual
ly are reported in favor of its contin-
uance than are the editors themselves,
the exact figures being SO editors and
1903 communities in favor, with only
7 communities doubtful and oppos-
ed; while there are IL editors opposed
and 4 doubtful

ular forces, and $4,000 State militia.
This far reaching program for de-
fense of the nation is contingent of
course, upon both public approval and
congressional enactment. Strong and
determined opposition both without
and within the Democratic party to
the program was already evident to-
day.
Probable necessity reported already

OF Panama Canal bonds remaining in
the treasury for the national defense
program, the cost of which will aggre-
gate $400,O00,0O0, or an increase of

expected to crystalize public opinion,

In addition to the worlds second
feet and the large army proposed, il
was charmed today an earoulane corps
equipped with so aeroplanes and diri-
gibles is planned. A volunteer army

ual cars for defense is another plan.

recommend establishment of any new
arsenals.
To form the vast army, the plan of
Secretary Garrison is as follows:
First-Enlistment of $4,000 "conti-
nentals" every year, to serve at train
ing camps two monts annually, and,
after three years service, go in the
reserve corps for three more years,
making six years service in all. After
six years, this would constantly pro-
vide an active continental army of
100000 and a reserve of 100000 as
$4,000 would be mustered out an
malay and as many enlisted
Second-Increase of the regular
army from the present forct of $1,000
to 100000. By changing the enlistment
term, requiring the regulars" to
serve two years actively and four years
in reserve by 1922, the reserves, it is
estimated, would be 100000 men and
the regular army still 100000, or 42O,-
900 in all. These figures are based ON
belief that about 10000 would serve
out their active term annually and
then be in the reserve corps for four
years more.
State Militia Under U. S. Control.
Third-Continuance of the State
militia, aggregating $4,000, the pres
ent force, but under federal control and
with increased training and equipment.
The army aviation corps planned,
while not as large as those of Europe.
to consist of four squadrons with -
machines each and extra dirigibles and
war balloons, it is believed would be
ample for scouting purposes.
The army now has II aeroplanes
and of these only eight ar serviceable.
