MIDDLE-WEST VOTE OF WOMEN REACHES LARGE PROPORTION

(By Associated press) CHICAGO, Oct. 30. The women's vote in the cities of the middle-west at Tuesday's election will run around 40 per cent of the total, it the women vote in the same proportion as they registered. This is the conclusion reached here after a review of registration in a dozen representative cities. Reports from ten cities, from Minneapolis to Galveston, show women registered to the number of 739,93ft, as against 1,232.239 men. Figures follow: Men. Women.

The percentage of women registered in the cities named is 37 per cent, of the total. At Kansas City election officials estimated a larger percentage, and at Milwaukee and Omaha it ran around this figure. At some other cities, among them Columbus, O., no separate count of the women was kept. Final registration in some of the cities was late. It Is ervident from the foregoing that women In the larger cities of the middle west will cast a larger vote for president Tuesday than was polled by a number of entire states in 1916.

Fox star, in "The Little Wanderer." which closes its run Sunday night at the Murray theatre, is to have witnessed one of the most satisfying pictures ever shown upon the local screen. It is a story packed with engrossing incidents and conveys a wholesome lesson in a most entertaining way. Miss Mason is a peculiarly fascinating personality and the possessor of fine histrionic talent. MURRAY. Starting with the Monday matinee, the Murray will offer four vaudeville acts every Monday and Thursday in

conjunction with the usual photoplay

Monday will be Jack Neville and Company, a blackface comedian in his laughable sketch entitled "New York To Nome," revealing the frozen regions, and a colored boy who is chauffeur of an airship in search of the North Pole. The following acts complete the bill: Ernest Hiatt in "Read, Brother, Read", Jolly Johnny Jones and Co., in a comedy bounding wire act, and Daisy and Wilson, sensational aerialists, with Louise Lovely upon the screen in "The Little Grey Mouse." Headlining the bill Thursday come Prosper and Maret, two young boys who are said to have the most sensational acrobatic offering ever seen upon any stage. These boys were a big hit in Chicago last week, and come here direct from The Majestic Theatre, that city. The supporting acts will be The Three Beauties, a trio of attractive girls who can sing and entertain as well as display their
