the Democrats registered one thousand
more than the Republicans on Saturday.
Nearly an Republicans registered on the

ures are considered ridiculous by the
Republican leaders

UNDER DIFFICULTIES
speelal 10 the EvenIng journal.


Townsend, Oct. 22.-There was quite
an exciting time here on Saturday
evening just as the places Of registra-
ton were nearly ready to close for the
last day of registration. A colored
man was anxious TO have his name
put en- the list, and several Democrats
tried hard to detain him, hoping there
by to keep him from getting to the
window I'm time to become registered.
At this juncture Sereck S. and VIII
liam p. Wilson, both of whom are Re
publicans, showed the colored man the
proper place to register, but the Demo
cratic leaders evidently were deter
mined, and they held on to the arm Of
the negro, trying their best to defeat
his purpose. Then the Wilson boys
grabbed the other arm of the big fell
low and attempted to free him from
the Democratic grasp. the various
politicians pulling ON either arm, ap-
parently with all their strength, the
spectacle affording much amusement
for the on-lool1ers. Finally the man
was suddenly freed, and proceeded to
the window to be registered.

horses, which he paid 81 900 for last
week, and had only driven them
once. He was particularly attached to
the off-horse, and considered him the
best he had ever owned. Mr. Talley
was much distressed at the loss of his
team. Besides the horses he lost car
riages and harness valued at $1,000.
Max Elliott lost a horse that he re-
fused to sell for $500. Percy Darling
ton lost one that was valued at about
$400 Others who lost fine driving
horses are Herbert N. Fell Henry l..
Fulenweider, J. M. Mather, Harlan G..
Scott Harry Gotwald and James Me-
gary. So far as is known the owners
of some of the other dead horses are J.
N. Meharg, Eben G. Griffin, Diamond
State Laundry, Edward II. Kane, Cliff
ford Greenman and James Keenan,.
Several doctors had horses in
this stable, but they were
rescued. Among them are DR.. =. G..
Shortlidgc, DR.. John Palmer, DR.. J. A.
Draper and DR.. Finley
The losses have not been estimated,
but Mcdaniel Bros. say their loss on
the building will be $4,000. and loss on
property $4,000. On this is an insur-
ance Of $4,000, placed with j. II. Mather
& Co. The total loss probably will
foot up to $25, 600. At 11.55 o'clock the
fire was declared out. but a plug stream
is still playing upon n quantity Of hay
in the stable.
A buggy, a blackboard and phaeton
belonging to j. II. HoffeclIer were
