No Sign Of Fraud!!
The Ballot Box of Precinct A,
Fourth Ward, Examined
and Explained.
The Tickets Found to be Prop.
erly Folded and Stamped
Dalton Wants the
Returns.

CINCINNATI, O., March 6-Whep
the Senatorial Committee got together
this morning, Dan Dalton, Charley
Baker, his attorney, and Attorney
General Kohler were present, with a
request that the returns of precinct \,
Fourth Ward, be returned TO Dalton,
that he may carry them to the House
Committee and purge himself of con-
tempt. The Democratic Senators oh.
jected on the ground that the commit
tee yet had use for them. Senator
Rannells replied that the committee
had Photographic returns that were
more sharply defined than the Origi-
nails, and surely had no further use
for the returns themselves. Senator
Lawrence retorted that if the photo.
graphs exaggerated the originals, so
much more the reason to keep them.
A telegram of inquiry elected the
reply that the House Committee would
not unnecessarily delay the return OF
the papers. Rannells moved that the
returns be given Dalton next Tuesday,
but it was defeated by a party vote,
In this connectian it might be said
that Dalton's habeas case before Judge
Robertson was today continued until
Wednesday, when the Senatorial Com.
mittee expect to be through with the
returns.
Shortly before noon the Democratic
coHtestees opened their testimony by

A Noble Boy.
Frnp, Tid-hifc

One morning last week the engineer of an
express train ON an eastern road was startled
by the sudden appearance on the track ahead
of a boy who was frantically waving a piece
of red flannel Interpreting this. of course,
as a warning of danger, the engineer instant
ly whistled for 'down brakes" Just then
the train, which had been going at the rate
of sixty miles an hour, turned a sharp curve,
and cry of horror broke from the lips of
engineer and fireman for in the centre of the
track, but few yards ahead, was large
bowlder. In a few seconds the train came to
a standstill, the cowcatcher almost touching
the huge stone.-
A few seconds later the boy who had saved
the lives of SO many of his fellow creatures
was surrounded by the pale and excited
passengers, who were listening to the story of
the rescue.
81 was walkin' along the track on nay way
to my Sunday school teachers house when I
see that stun on the track began the little
fellow, modestly, and if his grammar was
not of the best no one thought of criticising
it then. 81 knew this train was pretty near
due, an made up my mind I'd have ter
stop her. So looked around an found this
here fannel-it's piece of an old flag, ys
see, that some signal mans fired away an
| run ahead with it-an' that's all there is ter
tell"
GU are nODle boy, said an old gentle
man, IN a voice broken with emotion.
Friends" he added, turning to his fellow
passengers, 'this little hero must not go I'M
rewarded. I am going to pass my
hat around for contributions for his benefit,
and here is a five-dollar note for my share.'
Some of the passengers took their depart
ure in considerable haste at this, but many
remained, and in a faw minutes a heap of
coins and crisp bank notes was thrust into the
hands of the blushing little fellow. Then
the old gentleman who had started the colleo-
ton handed him card, saying:
"Here you have my name and address, my
lad, and if you ever need friend come to
me-"
Then, the bowlder having been removed
from the track, the train started. The boy
watched until it disappeared in the distance;
then he sat down beside the track and began
counting his money. It was then that five
other boys emerged from behind clump of
bushes by the roadside and advanced toward
our ex-hero.

The case against John c. Thompson the
State street rubber dealer accused of embez-
zling $83 worth of goods from the Beacon
Valley Rubber company of Naugatuck, came
up before Judge Pickett in the City court
yesterday. The State introduced evidence to
last, payment for which was not made, it is
claimed. The company received letter
from Thompson that the goods had been sent
back. The company refused to receive the
goods and J. NJ. Sweeny, counsel for the COM
pany, so told Mr.. Thompson and Niles, to
whom Thompson said he had sold the store.
The trial was continued to October 16.
The suit of John A. Dodds, roller skater,
against o. Howes, proprietor of the Savin
Rock restaurant and skating rink, which was
partially tried in the City court Thursday

The basis of settlement was the payment to
him of 500. Dodds agreed to pay the court
costs.
A suit for So, 900 has been brought against
the Consolidated road by Nellie Quinn, wild
ew of Michael Quinn, the section hand, who

A Divorced Couple Remarked.


Fourteen years ago the marriage bells rang
in a Boston church for handsome John Win
ter and pretty Alice Lee, and a handsomer
couple, SO common report said, never vowed
to be faithful to each other
Four years later, after two years of never
ending dissension and strife, they separated
by mutual consent, and, according to agree
ment, the wife sued for divorce on the ground
of desertion, and in due time received the
courts decree. In that they were not at all
unlike the countless couples whose follies
made life misery to themselves, while
swelling the fortunes of divorce lawyers and
witnesses. :"
But mark the sequel, Eess than year
ago they met each other again, after both
had had time to discover their folly, and
when each began to realize that the other
was not all to blame. There was nothing
emotional in their meeting, which closed
but to be followed by another and still
another. Before the ex husband knew
what he was about no was dead Id love. SO
the chroniclers say, with. the woman from
whom be had SO gladly separated nine years
before, and what was equally strange the
wonsn was quite as much in love with him.
They met again, they talked it over, and one
day minister was called in to annul the
decree of divorce.

MORE SHOCKS AT CHARLESTON.
Great Uneasiness Felt Among the
People.
CHARLESTON, Oct. 8.-Considerab1e I'M
easiness prevails here on the subject of the
earthquake to-day. There were two distinct
shocks, one at 2 a. m. and the other at a.
m. This afternoon a rumor reached here
that the buildings at the junction, seven
miles north of the city, had been wrecked.
Mr.. Earl Sloan, the government geo1ogist,
who is investigating the disturbances,
found the tank at the junction injured,
but expresses the opinion that it
was not injured by an earthquake. This be-
lief is not shared by those who were present
at the time, however, and who are confident
it was an earthquake The recurrence of the
shocks at Summerville to is the cause of
some uneasiness. It is doubtful whether
these are the ending of the old quake or the
beginning of a new one. In spite of all
this, however, the theater opened tonight
with large audience. At 1920 tonight
there was another sharp shock at Summer
