MIR. Markham drew a picture of the
awful result of appointing ballot judges.
There would be at every polling place a
Democratic ballot judge, Democratic
ballot clerk, and another Democratic
ballot clerk under the name of Populist
judge. This would be unfair, Mr..
Markham cOntended, and then he sug-
gested the remedy, but the Democrats
Saw Through His Scheme
and voted it down. The idea was to
strike out that portion of the resolution
appointing the ballot judges. and first
adopt the clause appointing the election
Judges Tor each party. This, MIR. Mark
ham explained, would pass the assembly.
and no matter what befell the ballot

would be provided for. This attempt to
saddle upon the Democrats the response

neck chain. Mrs. Arbuckle whipped
her horse, but the fellow still hung on

promptly let go and vanished. But the
villain or villains still pursued the Ar
buckles, according TO Mr.. Arbuckle,
who says that on the following night a
man made another effort to break into
his house, but that his son. fired two
shots at him through the window.
whereupon "the man" took to his heels.
Now the police insist that there is
absolutely no foundation for these re-
ports. Lieut.. Murphy, of the central
station. informed GLOBE reporter last
night that MIR. Arbuckle is the man who

just as the fire broke out in Haynes
big millinery store at Wabash avenue
and Madison street yesterday afternoon
a pretty young woman got off a Wabash
avenue car.
She was bound, with her escort, for
a call on the North Side.
The great plate glass window on the
Madison street side was broken out just
as the couple left the car Engines
were rushing furiously up to the build
ing and a great crowd was gathering.
The young man was evidently anxious
to hurry away, but his fair companion
refused to go.

show window, there, you see that

plumes? had my heart on that hat. I

whether or not it is ruined by this mis-
cradle fire. "
The blaze grew hotter and hotter.
Frightened guests rushed out from
neighboring hotels in their underclothes.
More engines came rushing up. The
crowd grew larger and more noisy. A
policeman tried to drive the young wo-
man back to a place of safety, but she
stood firm
Finally a stream of water, impelled
by $50 pounds pressure, struck the de-
voted hat full in the face. 1t was
hurled, ostrich plumes and all, into a
puddle Of black, dirty water.
