Eighteenth Ward Souabble

AS is their wont twice O year the
Democrats of the Eighteenth ward
have a primary election squabble on
hand.
Attorney James j. O'Malley yester-
day filed objections to the certificates
of nomination of James Noon, as judge
of election. Thomas O'Boyle, jr., as
inspector, and Edward Manley, as reg
lister. These candidates allege that
they were nominated at primaries held
in the election booth Jan. 10. The ex-
ceptants claim that there was no such
caucus held and that the certificate of
nomination is apparently irregular. in
that the signatures and all other writ
ing thereon seems TO have been done
by the same hand.
The eXceptants are NJ. Il. Nolan, John
Clark and Patrick b. Duffy, who filed
| certificates of nomination Jan. o. and
who claim they were regularly noml-
| mated for the offices In question at q
caucus held in the office of Alderman
| Kelly, Jan. 2l.
| Court ordered that hearings on the
exceptions take place tomorrow morn,
| ing at 0 o'clock.

Pardello says he weighs 1S4 pounds,

defeating the unconauered Dwyer. he
would only say, II can't afford to lose"
When Pardello was travelling through
the country, meeting all comers and
Offering a purse of s25 to any man he
could not throw in fifteen minutes, he
encountered Dwyer and failed to throw
him. Dwyer was just learning the
wrestling business then. Pardello was
at that time q pupil of Roeber. Now
Dwyer is vanquishing the best OF the
mlddleweights with comparative ease.
while Pardello is challenging his for
mer tutor, or any other wrestler, back
ing his challenge with a $3.50 forfeit
posted at the Police Gazette office.
The injury TO Pardello's arm, which
caused postponement OF the match
with Dwyer is not bothering him in
the least, he says. 1t was only a lame
ness, resulting from a wrench which
was given it by big, strong amateur
with whom he was wrestling in Il show.
Having heard OF the prowess OF the
newcomer on the mat, the strong and
agile Dwyer, he did not wish to take
any chances, and so had the match
postponed until he could get into the
best of condition.

At this time the Queen first had fits of
crying, which in an aggravated form pre-
ceded her present critical illness. Her
excitement over her Irish visit seemed
to revive her, but before the visit ended
a reaction set in. The public, however,
were hoodwinked by accounts of her al
legged replies to addresses and other evil
dence of mental activity, when in reality
the Queen lived as in a dream.
SO alarming was her condition begin
ming in December that the royal family
was precluded from going on the CONT
nent. The change to Osborne did not
work the benefit anticipated, as the war
news and the illness of Empress Freder-

from depression and crying. She was
constantly referring to the death of the

Queen Victoria is dead. She passed
away Tuesday, surrounded by her physi-
clans and the members Of her family. The
Prince Of Wales is now King Of Great
Britain and Ireland and Emperor Of In
dia. The Queens death places him on
the throne as her legal successor. He will
reign as Edward VII.
The long and benefcent reign Of Queen
Victoria is at an end. After occupying
the throne of England for more than
sixty-three years the venerable woman
whose name is so closely identified with
England's greatest era is no more, and
her subjects have awakened with pro-
found sorrow to the consciousness that
her rule is over. Not only in Great Brit
ain and it's dependencies, but throughout
the civilized world, the news has been
received with a keen sense of the great
ness with which she has played her part
both as woman and as queen. 1t has
been the especial merit of the Queen so to
fill the functions of rulership as to exer'
