OF them rolled up II large pile of votes for
their friends. The two tickets were com
posed oil Democrats and Republicans and
the party question was not made an issue;
all voting for those they preferred. Long
before the polls closed the friends of Mr.. Day
were sanguine of his success, while Mr..
Reedy's supporters were equally as loud in
declaring that he would be the "happy" man,
but when the tickets In the bottom of the
box were reached and they were travelling
side by side the excitement was very great
and hurrahs filled the air when 1t was an
nounced that Reedy had been elected by
three votes, There was considerable cut
ting and In some In stances the entire ticket
was voted with the president cut off. The
Day ticket was elected with the exception
of Mr.. Day ard stephen Slaughter. Mr..
Slaughter was for reelection and was de-
feated by Ave votes by A. T. Novel;. The

NEWARK, March 2.--Newark unfortunately
and signally failed to sustain its excellent
reputation for large audiences In that it
did not pay the proper homage to the
lecture by Henry Ward Beecher in Caskey
Hall last evening. The audience numbered
about 200 owing doubtless to high price
and the extreme weather, which prevented
the attendance Of the country people. Mr..
Beecher was introduced by the Rev. L. H.
Haynes and delivered his lecture on "The
Reign of the Common People," The
lecture was interesting and was listened to
