Returns Show That Suffrage Ballot-
hig Follows Regular
Ratio of State
Chicago, Nov .9. - In the fickle
game of "how to handle the women,"
Illinois politicians today made two
rules as they watched the returns of
the first presidential woman's vote in
Illinois, which is larger than that of
all othier suffrage states combined.
First: As the men vote, so go the
women.
Second: Few fail to vote.
Few state figures are complete yet,
but full Chicago re urns show that
in only four wards did the women's
plurality go different from the whole
choice, and in those by only small
margins. The same ratio holds for
down-state districts.
Although barred from voting on
the governorship and other import-
ant state offices, women polled 89 per
cent of their registered vote in Chi-
cago, only three per cent less than
the man with unlimited suffrage.
Minor parties have little to expect
from suffrage, figures indicate. ' Pro-
hibition. Socialist and Socialist-Labor
candidates together received only 5,-
000 of the 305,954 women's vote in
Cook county. Illinois will pile up a
women's vote of more than 750,000,
estmates indicate.
Several western states have suffrage
for the first time this year, but the
close presidential race had absorbed
attention and little has been gathered
from these states by suffrage lead-
ers.

AT THE MAJESTIC.
Alfred Farrell opens the week-end
bill at the Majestic with an act of
rapid sketching, the drawings being
thrown on a screen while in the mak-
ing.
George Fox and Zella Ingraham give
a novelty in song, patter and mim-
icries. "All Wrong," a comedy sketch,
is presented by Carolyn Gates and
Fraunie Fraunholtz, and is an active
bit of fun-making.
Von Hampton and Shriner entertain
with another comedy sketch. Mary
Daniels and Jack McGuire are two
juveniles with attractive personalities
who have a clever act to present.
A pretty story of the far north, told
in song and action, is given by seven
performers in "The Luck of a Totem."
Jack McLaughlin appears as an Eski-
mo; Curt Karpe, a half-breed; Leo
Ruggeri, "the Boy"; Charles Diamond,
"the Irishman"; Pete Smithe, "the
Tenderfoot"; Anthony Hughes, "the
Sheriff," and Stella Watts, "the Girl."
The act contains some dramatic mo-
ments which are entertaining and
varied.
Wisconsin to Have Rooming Clubs
Madison, Wis., Nov. 9.-Dormitories
are too expensive and will not be sup-
plied university men for some years
so Wisconsin is planning to solve her
difficulty in handling groups of inde-
pendent men by the formation of
rooming clubs. Such organizations
for cheapness and companionship is
not to be rivaled, co-operative buying,
simple but comfortable furnishings,
and the lack of social obligations of-
fering ideal conditions. No man will
be compelled to stay in any group
more than a year because reorganiza-
tion each fall can be easily arranged
and there will be no tendency toward
narrowness.
PROHIBITIONIST CANDIDATE
PLEASED WITH EARLY RESULTS
Indi'anapolis, Ind., Nov., 9.-J. Frank
Hanly, Prohibitionist candidate for
president, was evidently pleased today
over the early results from the states
where the liquor question was an is-
sue, but refused to make any state-
ment until there is no question as to
the result.
"It looks like we have made great
progress but the results are too in-
definite yet to be certain," said Han-
ly.

FTLE CHANCE OF SPLIT IN
CALIFORNIA SAYS DIL HAYDEN
NEW SERIES OF COSMOPOLITAN
ARTICLES BEGINS TOMORROW
As announced in The Michigan Daily,
the Cosmopolitan club has started
publishing a series of world articles
by foreign students about some phase
of their native lands. The first seven
of such articles were written by S.
Katsuizumi, '17, and M. Kiyohara, '17,
about Japan.
Tomorrow the first of the second
series, eight in number, will appear.
They will be contributed by students
of the British South African league.
Scenes, customs, resources, and nov-
elties for their country will be de-
picted. Dr. N. S. Hardikar, who has
charge of the articles, expects this to
be a very interesting series.
