Ballot Machines May be Useless.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.--Attorney Cen
eral Davis come to this city to-day on a
hurry Gull from the Republican state
committee. One of bis deputies had
preceded him with an opinion that the
ballot machines could not be used in
their platform In casting ballots for
presidential electors, and Mr.. Davis is
wanted for a conference. The opinion
OF the attorney general Is that the ballot
machines. not having the names OF the
electors In detail would lIsentranchise
any voter using them. The decision is
OF serious Import. unless the machines
can be changed In time. :; :

Come, now.I prescribe; you take the

Half reluctantly, yet pleasantly ex-

protest, went away To- obey.
She took great pains with her TOLL

crying had not in the least spoiled her
lovely eyes: II anything. 1t had added

Denver smiled in admIs!ng approval
when she returned.
The grave Parker called cab, and
started when he saw his mistress
handed Into It by the attentive cavn-
lier. Then they drove away, Madgc
laughing, and Parker looked at Bates
and Bates at Parker, but they said
nothing.
What n night that was to DO sure!
Madge was quite carried away by the
novelty OF It nll--the dining out at q

Afterwards, Madge was never allowed
to get dull or llstless. There was al

some pleasant outing or cheerful even

Tom never failed her.
Altogether, Madge scarcely had time
to miss her husband, or repine at his
long absence.
How glad and grateful Tom was to
hear of his friends devotion to his dear

was called in said McGovern had been
dead some time. He said Wilson would
probably die. Wilson is So years old and
for two years has been in the prison

Emerson was under bail of $4,000 on
two charges of burglary. Flanagan, who
had been employed as a steward in a
fashionable restaurant also was under
heavy bail for burglary.

prison that a woman is at the bottom OF
the whole trouble and that it was she
who furnished the file with which the
prison bars were sawed through. 1t was

When the body of Keeper McGovern
was searched it was found that his keys
and revolver had been taken from him.
Neither the keys nor the revolver

they are in the possession of Flanagan.

HIT WITH A RIFLE.
Negro Makes Murderous Assault
on Eugene Rice.

Eugene Rice. son of Henry Rice.
Santa Fe conductor, is lying In Stor-
mont hospital, lowering between life and
death. His condition is due to a blow
received from the butt Of a Winchester
rifle In the hands of John Barton, a
noted negro tough.
The affair occurred in Tecumseh. Sat
urday night, about o'clock Rice
rode up to the pOstoffice in TecumEeh
and got off to hitch his horse when some
one who was in the crowd standing be-
fore the Office said: Better tie your
horse well, Gene"
That's what I intend to do" said
Rice; II don't want anybody to carry
off my hitch rein"
Barton, who was standing near with
a Winchester rife which he had been
hunting with, took up the remark, and
cusing of wanting to take your hitch
rein2'' A few more remarks were passed
and then Barton dubbed his gun and
struck Rice over the head. The blow
fractured the skull over the left ear
and rendered Rice unconscious.
Barton at once took flight. and It was
thought that he started for Topeka, but
several hours after the attack he was
seen by the station agent at Tecumseh,
who talked with him. Barton said that
ne had changed his mind about going
to Topeka and had decided that he
would take TO the woods Nothing has
been heard of him since, although the
officers from the sheriffs Office and the
police station were searching the entire
night.
Barton is about "a years old, and has
served a term in the penitentiary for
stealing harness. He was released about
two months ago, and has been around
the town since.
As soon as young Rice could be taken
care of a young man took his horse and
hurried to Topeka, where he notified the
police and sent an ambulance to bring
in the wounded man. He was taken to
Stormont hospital, where he now is. The
doctors can not say whether or not Rice
will live He was resting easy this
morning, and they have hopes OF his re-
covery He is % years old and has
favor.
