The vote in the city is being cast more
rapidly since noon and the Santa Fe
shop men have had an opportunity to
get at the polls.
At 2:30 p. m. 200 votes had been cast
in the first precinct in the y rst ward, and
it is estimated that about 500 votes have
been cast in the ward up to this hour
Nowhere in the city does there seem
to be much activity around the voting
places. The registration was not heavy
but the vote will fall bslow the registra
ton by at least 1000 or 1900.
The hangers on at the polling places are
not so numerous as usual and they are
more qniet. AS usual there was Il little
trouble in the second precinct of the
Fifth ward over the organization of the
boerd, but it VIZ confined to talk.
In that precinct at 1880 there were 1877
votes cast out of 800 registered.
John Rtchie and Mike Thompson
are the most active of the anti
Burdge workers and Albert Barton
of the Burdge men Barton claims
that almost the entire colored vote is
going to Burdge and he says that Burdge
will have twice as many votes in the
precinct as Kepley.
In the first precinct of the Third ward
out of a registration of 361 there were
but 1l9 votes at 1870. In the second
DFeC!nCb Oh lA6 Same WdE0 tleEo wore
257 votes cast out of total of 4J9 regis
tered.
In the fifth precinct of the Second
ward, which is one of the largest in tie
city, the registration was 594, and at 80
242 votes were cast.
Il is admitted that a light vote is in
the interest of KerIey, but the Burdge
men have no fear OF the result even in
the face of light vote.

There is no more strikingly beau

reproduction of General Grants old

farm, located IL miles outside Of the

Harper's theatre Wednesday evening,
Mr.. Sphinx, accompanied the artists
to the spot upon which the log cabin
stands, and they spent several days
together there making sketches of it..
Anyone who has ever visited the
place will readily recognize the old
log cabin as it stands in its wooded
home on . spot which is so sacred,
by reason of its being the scene of
General Grants early days. Not far
in the distant is seen the river Des

afterwards married at the little
old church seen in the background to
the right. 1t was here and here
abouts that the great hero president
spent his earlier days. and it is a
historic spot that is visited by thous-
ands annually, and it is indeed sa-
cred to the hearts of every true
American. 1t is under the inviting
shelter Of the greet oak that stands
near the Grant log cabin that Alice
Mobiles, the heroine, declares her
love for Milt West, the hero in the
play. and though sorely tried, she
never once forgets her declaration.

 BEAUTY IS NO INHERITANCE.

Cosmetics do not beautify, but often destroy a healthy complex ion. A natural rosy and healthy complexion cannot be had by the use of cosmetics, but only through the health of tho body in general. Nothing is better to secure this result than the genuine imported Carlsbad Sprudel Salt when taken early in the morning, before breakfast (about small teaspoon. full dissolved in tumblerful of water).

THOUS4ND WORDS fl MINUTE.
Experiments With Patrick B. Delany',
 New Telegraph System


 New Telegraph System,
 Philadelphia, Oct. 14-An experiment of more than usual interest was made in this city by well known experts yes terday to determine the practical value of the new high speed system of ma chine telegraphy recently brought out by Patrick B. Delany, by which he proposes to do the mail business by wire instead Of train, at cost SO low that very large percentage of business communications between distant cities will be thus transmitted.
 The new system is worked automat- icalIy, punched tape taking the place of the sending operators. Over a single wire as many as 1000 words a minute can be sent between points as far dis tant from each other as New York and Chicago. The weather was not propi- tious for the test, but the first message sent over a line of high resistance, 21S miles long, was received in perfectly legible shape, as was every other one sent. The speed which was at first 72C words a minute, was increased to 94C minute without any decrease in the legibility. MT. Delany stated that with wire weighing $50 pounds to the mile which would give a line of resistance much less than that ue-d yesterday he could send 1000 words a minute with equal legibility, at a cost not ex- ceeding five cents for fifty words.
