Suffrage Will Carry
Senate. Says Mrs. Gait
She Predicts Ratification of
Amendment by Thirty-six
States in 1919

Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, leader of
the National Woman Suffrage party,
returned from Washington yesterday
filled with jubilation and confident Of
victory for the suffrage amendment.
"There is no doubt whatever that the
amendment will pass the Senate when
it comes up" said Mrs. Gait in an in
terview. 0''
Spread the glad tidings that victory
IS certain to- be ours. The poll taken
IN the Senate foretells the result, even
as the poll taken in the House was
IDENTICAL with the subsequent result
we count S3 per cent of the Republi-
cans as ours, the same percentage as
we mad IN the House. The Democrats
Will not give us so big q percentages
because of the so-called solid South
we have twenty FOUR solid state dele
cations, meaning forty-eight votes. In
addition, there will be scattered votes
of other states.
THE amendment will be ratified in
thlrty-slX states in 1919. This will
give all women the vote in the Presi-
Dental election of 1920. This wear
;Sutriously enough, is the one hundredth
birthday of Susan B. Anthony, for
whom, the Anthony amondment is

Two Days in May Set
For Women to Enroll
Legislative Leaders Reach
Agreement for Primaries in
in New York This Year

ALBANY, Feb. 6.-Legislatlve lead
ers and executive officers of the State
Woman's Suffrage party reached an
agreement to-day concerning contro-
versial details on a bill to permit woH1-
en- 10 enroll for this years primaries.
Under the agreement there will be
two days in May for personal enrol
ment of women residing in New YORK,
Buffalo and Rochester. In the remain
der of the state enrolment will be by
affidavit from May Is to June 15.
The plan of personal enrolment
in the larger cities and enrolment
by affidavit in the rest of the state
was agreed to after a conference par
tcipated in by Majority Leader Brown
Of the Senate, Speaker Sweet of the
Assembly, Chairman Walters of the
Senate Judiciary Committee and Mrs.
james Lees Laidlaw, representing the
State Woman Suffrage party; Mrs.
Travis II. Whitney, in behalf of the
New York City branch of the party.
and Mrs Helen NJ. Leavitt.
The representatives of the suffragists
said that the additional cost of con
ducting elections because of the in
crease of the vote due to the enfran-
chisement of women would be greatly
lessened by adding an hour to the time
in which polling booths are open on
Election Day. This suggestion will be
enacted into law, so that the votes
may be cast up to o'clock instead of 8.
Another suggestion along the same
lines, offered by Mrs. Whitney and Mrs.
Laidaw, that more booths be provided
in each polling place, will also be acted
on favorably.

Thrift Stamps To Be Used as Place Cards :
At Banquet Of the Millinery Association
Name of One of I 300 Guests
Will Appear on Each,
With Is Cent Stamp At
tached- Business Houses
Urged to Form 100 Per
Cent Clubs

merry Association of America at the
Hotel Astor. Thrift cards, with a 25-
cent stamp on each, will be used as
place cards for 1900 guests.

the hopes Of the originators of the
method are realized every one present
will be induced to become a regular
saver of war savings stamps. The
leaders of the campaign here to help

pect to create vogue Of using thrift
cards in this way at banquets.
Preparations are being made at the

ters to persuade business houses to
start 100 per cent clubs among their
employees, in which every member of
the establishment will become a regu-
lar saver of thrift stamps. The sug-
gestion will be made that employers
take 25 cents week from the pay
envelopes to pay for stamps where the
workers are willing.

BY Haywood Broun

Sophocles may never have referred
10 his ELECTRA" as Il play with punch,
but the tragedy, in addition to other
values. IS a good show. AS played by
Margaret Anglin, at Carnegie Hall, yes
terday, there were fine flashes in the
play of obvious theatrical value. Some
thing has come down for the average
man. There isn't reason in the world
why the playgoer shouldn't use as
many handkerchiefs over Electra's
grief at the death of her brother as
III the Playhouse when Mary Ryan
finds that her lumberjack lover has
left Goshen Hollow. AS a matter Of
fact. the Carnegie audience used no
handkerchiefs. Perhaps It felt that
Goshen Hollow was nearer than
Mycena
But though the audience did not
weep, IT was profoundly moved by the
recognition scene, and there was a per-
ceptlble sitting at attention when
Orestes, sword in hand, confronted
-Hglsthos. OF course no manager to-
day would allow The combatants to
withdraw. Instead, there would be a
fracas, with slap-slap of the swords
twice overhead, once over the right
knee, once over the left knee, and then
a terrific cut within a foot of the VIC
TINS head, and down he would 60,
overwhelmed by atmospheric pressure.
1t Is different with an off-stage duel,
Tor, aided by most prodigious. clatter,
any mind yesterday could not fail to
picture the very devil of duel 1t
might have been Achilles VS.. D'Arta-
gnan. Then, again, no Lreadmill could
produce as fine an illusion of galloping
steeds as the famous speech of the
foster father of Orestes. This descrip-
tlon of the chariot race was spoken
with spirit by Fuller Meilish.
Margaret Anglin was plastic Elec
ira; she was beautiful and forceful.
Once or twice she used her open air
voice, but in the big climaxes of the
play she was terrific without once
showing stress or strain. In particular
she was magnificent at the moment
when Egisthos asks her to call the
dead Clytemnestra. Fred Eric was a
good throughout.
The setting designed by Livingston
Platt was effective, but a few of the
costumes somewhat marred the cool
ness of the effect. The New York Sym
phony Orchestra played special music
composed by Walter Damrosch Light
ing was good, and this and several
other arts of the theatre were com
bined to produce as me curtain as
anybody is likely to see in our theatres
this season.
Nothing which we can say will be
so potent in producing an impression
of the excellence of the production as
the bare statement that during the per-
formance, which ran without interrupt
ton from 2;30 to 5, only one person
in the large audience left the theatre
He was late at his dentists, at that.
New-York tribune., 1918-02-07

Belcher, who is lieutenant in the
ordnance department at Washington,
filed claim for $4,000, the difference
ii salary between what he draws as
lieutenant and that Of his former job.
II think that the term Of secretary
or deputy in the exempt class Of civil
service should be presumed to expire
with that Of his appointing officer"
said Attorney General Lewis, "when
that ,rofficer is not reelected or re-
appointed. In the case stated it is
perfectly clear that the former secre-
ttary of the commission would have
been relieved of his duties on January
! when the new commission took Of
flee.
"Fhe Fenner law, not being intended
TO put man in a position any better
than that in which he would be we're
he at home and on the job, cannot be
held to continue in Office a man who
obviously would not be continued were
he not in the military service"
Commenting on the Attorney Cen
erals opinion, Mr.. Mcbride said:
This decision will save at least

Opera
Galli-Curci Repeats Hel
Original Success in
''Dinorah'

Owing to the illness of Juan Madal
who was to have sung Almaviva, last
nights opera at the Lexington Theatre
was changed from "Thc Barber of Sc
Vile" to "Dinorah," Mile. Amelita
Galli-Curci appearing in the part in
which she made her New York debut
and in which she disclosed the full ex-
tent of her powers. Despite the
stupidity Of the opera and the made
quacy of the rest of the cast, with the
sole exception of Carolina Lazzari
Nine Cali Curci's drawing power was
undiminished, and hundreds of people
were turned away from the doors.
The soprano wa% fully as successful
as she was at her opening perform
ance, in the first act even moro so.
Her singing Of the "Shadow Song" and
of the little air which precedes it
reached the heights of art; it was
such singing as has not been heard in
New York since Marcella Sembrich and
Nellie Melba were in their prime.
ESAt HdFc Occu III tHc pdSL IOTc
brilliant voices in the coloratura choir,
singers whose bravoura passages have
been executed with greater dash and
rhythmic vigor, but a warmer or more
even voice, more exquisite legato, a
finer feeling for nuance, a justcr taste,
a more perfect sincerity, have been
the portion of no singer within the
memory of the present generation. 1t
was thousand pities that her fellow
singers and her conductor were unable
to give her the support which such per-
feet art deserved. The audience was
again tumultuous in it's applause and
forced her to repeat a portion of her
big air.
