An Election Wager PAID.

Last fall William Donahue, election
supervisor, and Otto Hohing, tax
collector, agreed that in the event of
Mr.. McKaig's election Hohing was to
give Donahue Mr.. Wellington's
picture; otherwise, Donahue was to
give Hohing MIR. McKaig's picture.
Douahue won, and at once began and
continued bantering Hohing about it.
The latter responded, however, by
enjoining Donahue "to have patience"
Meanwhile Hohing and Towles, the
artist, had been comforting, and the
result was Il surprise to Donahue.
Instead of the cabinet photograph he
was expecting, he was presented with
16 by 24-inch free-hand crayon, in a
beautiful golden oak frame, ready for
hanging. He is very proud of his tro-
ply, and says anybody who wants to
see Mr.. Wellington's second self, en-
bellished by Towles' most artistic
touches, can do so by calling at his
residence. 1t is to be doubted whether
one can pay a friend a more graceful
tribute than Mr.. Hohing did Mr..
Wellington IN this instance.

Nominate Only
Party Men.
While the Democrats Will
Also Stand by
Their Colors.

There will be two judicial tickets
in the field next fall. unless the Bar
Association sees fit to put Il third
ticket on the ballot,
The Democrats will nominate a
straight Democratic ticket from top
to bottom, and will make upa strong
one while they are about it,
OF the candidates named at the
bar primary, George Mills Rogers on
the Democratic side stands an excel
lent chance of a nomination.
1t is likely that the Republicans
will nominate Judge Gary, because
he is a strong partisan, and also be-
cause he ran better than any other
Republican at the Bar Association
caucus. although that is not saying
much, because Gary ran far behind
Rogers.
/ Edmund Burke will certainly be
one of the Republicans nominated.

LEGISLATORS of New York thought
they had taken step forward in
civilization when instead of abolish
ing capital punishment they looked
to mitigation of the horrors OF hang
ing 10y requiring that persons con
demned to death should suffer not on
the gallows but die instantly by ap-
plication of electricity. Really hui
name persons fancied that no prog
ress was made. Some years ago the
case of the person who was to be the
first victim Of the electric form OF
/ administering the death punishment
was appealed from court to court anc
finally reached the United States Su
preme Court, where the question was
argued whether or not the punish
ment was cruel and unusual ant
therefore against the Fundamental
law of the Union. The finding OF th'
court was that it was not cruel or un
usual. The question is one OF fact
We knew to certainty that it wa

know that it is cruel, the horror 0

The nearest the Northwestern comes
to one is at McHenry, ILL.,, about SIX
miles from Fox Lake. The Wiscon-
