 official returns from the various coun- ties are coming in slowly, but from pres ent indications the Democratic majority will probably be cut down to 250oo. Throughout the State there was apathy and In many places the Democratic nomi- nees were defeated by lack of interest Tn the election. The negroes took less inter- est in the election than was expected, and in many places voted the straight Democratic ticket. The few black-beit counties which have been heard from fur nish large Democratic majorities. and in nearly every instance where the negroes went to the polls they voted with the Democrats, giving as reason that they preferred to stand by their white friends.

and twelve hundred and thirty-three against the convention. The loss of the county was due to the apathy of the Democrats and the large negro vote, which was unprecedented. Three boxes were irregular and the elections held H. legally and they may be contested by the candidates. If thrown out it would give the county several hundred majority for the convention, as the vote was largely colored.

THERE WAS GENERAL APATHY THROUGHOUT THE STATE BUT

ELMORE WILL HAVE
 ANOTHER CONTEST F. L. Mckenzie Was Defeated by the Independent Dem-
 ocratic Nominee.

Montgomery. April 24.-(special )-The defeat of F. L. Mckenzie. regular Demo- crat. by E. A. Williams, independent Democrat. for delegate to the Constitu- tional Convention from Fillmore County will probably cause a contest for the seat from that county, in thas convention.
 According to, the face of the returns Williams has received 1479 votes to 9S5 for Mckenzie. It will be recalled that Will Hams won the nomination of the Demo- crats in the county primary but Mo Kenzie contested before the State Com mittee and won the decision. The Fillmore County Committee ignored this action and ordered new primary in which the Me Kenzie people refused to partipate but organized a full county committee Mc- Kenzie was in Montgomery tonight and announced his intention to contest the election on the grounds of irregularities and froud. He said that the Williams element had traded with the negroes to vote against convention provided, in re- turn. they should vote for Williams. By this trade majority against convention of 300 was obtained. Mckenzie says his beat, Tallassee, voted almost solid for convention, while Williams beat East Wetumpka, voted almost solidly against it. He also charges fraud on the part of Williams who controlled the county ma chinery in not allowing Mckenzie mana
 gers in several beats. Mckenzie claims a large majority of the white votes and a majority of all the votes actually cast.

ALL STARS FAIL TO SCORE.
Though They Show Some Signs OF
BriIliancy, Georgetown Wins.

The term AN when applied u an ag-
gregation of baseball players IS sup
posed to carry with it suggestion OF
superfineness and gilt-edged finishedness-
In this respect the name "All-N ashlng-
tou' was certainly misapphed TO the
team, which was trounced by Georgetown
yesterday afternoon to the tune of 10 TO
O. The ex-stars gave an effective ana eH-
travagant revival of the COMEDY OF Ell
rors" on Georgetown Field. When the
seventh inning was almost over the UNI
pire said it was too dark to play longer
and everyone was glad when he had thus
spoken.
The Washingtons turned up at
Georgetown without uniforms and with
less than nine men. In order not to dis
appoint the few spectators present
couple of outside players were drafted
into service and the game started.
Georgetown was first to bat and the
rooters of the Blue and Grey were rather
surprised when the team was blanked,
without securing a single hit The eN-
stars did a little better. however, and
made q single base hit. Cox showed ne
was in good form by striking out two
batters.
In the second inning the death kne!l OF
the Ali-WaShingt gtOns was tolled 10 q Hnlsh
bv the agile wagon tongue of the George
town stickmen. Seven singles We're punch
ed out before the side WAS retired, and as
many runners crossed the plate. Every
man on the team went to bat. The All
Washfngtons helped things along by max
ing a couple of bad errors.
Georgetown then BANKED the ex-stars
and We're rather surprised when they re-
ceived the same treatment in the third.
and fourth. This startling reversal OF
form on the part of the AIl-Washingtnns
indicated that they had not altogether
lost the cunning of seasons Of experience
in years gone by. A single by Hanretty
and a triple by Drill brought a run for
Georgetown in the fifth.
In the sixth Golden laced ont a triple
bringing in another run for the Blue and
| Grey, and scored himself a minute later
when Walsh was retired at first. The
| Georgetown score for the inning reached
total of three when Dowling hit the ball
so far into the ravine west of the grounds
| that he made the circuit unmolested.
1t was in the seventh that the All-Wash-
| ingtons eXcelled all previous records in
the matter Of errors. The Georgetown hit
| column contained only two singles at the
| close Of the inning, but five base run

DISTRICT BOWLING LEAGUE.
The games last Monday night between
the Business Mems Bowling Club and the
Jolly Fat Mems Club marked the close of
the District Bowling League schedule. it
was the ndrOGSl fought Ddlllt VI lG4lliliS
in the history of the local game. For at
least four teams il was an almost con-
stant game OF See-Saw.
The struggle for first place was q hot
one but the fight for second place was
even hotter. First place was never very
much in danger until the last two or
three weeks when, after several runs OF
hard luck the Y NJ. G. y. team, which
had never been headed seemed in danger
of losing to the jolly Men its well-earned
position at the top.
Il is all over now and the Association
players hold the championship the first
in the history of the local game. and
right well do they deserve the honor, for
they won it fairly and squarely. Last
year was the Associations first appear
ance in bowling and all the players were
noviCes. The same team played together
again this year.
The Jolly Fat Mems team is nSw one,
composed of veteran players from former
League teams. They richly deserve the
place they won from the CAROLS and
SaeuSerbund both Of whom have had the
championship several times. The Bust
ness Men Columbias. and Golden Eagles
never had any real reason to believe that
they would win the championship, but
they played at all times on their merits
and fairly and squarely. They are ali
true sportsmen and say they viii be on
hand TO try again next year and hope for
better luck.
