WILTON.
AN EXCITING CONTEST.


The Microbine Medicine Company,
who have been giving entertainments
in the Town hall for two weeks, closed
on Wednesday night, March q, and
Thursday, the 18th. The entertain
ments were respectable and clean and
were attended by large crowds every
night. The popular lady diamond
ring contest was drawing card and
largely increased the medicine sales,
as each person who attended the en-
tertainment had one vote each time
and those who bought medicines had
more or less votes according to the
quantity they bought. This contest
showed that there are many popular
ladies in Wilton as the names appear
ed on the blackboard at one time or
another during the contest. But
there were five names that stayed
there persistently and that the people
would not allow to have taken off.
These five showed their great popular
ity by being pushed on and upward
night after night until on the third
last night their votes ran up into
thousands. When the vote was count
ed on this night by the committee, A.
G. Bradley and John Davis, it stood as
follows: Myra Birdsall, 2515; Alena
Gregory, 1901; Sarah Nolan, 1916;
Edith Jackson, 1898; Bessie Keller,
1853. aud upon the next nights count
the situation was changed making
Sarah Nolan, 5Ol6; Myra Birdsall, 4277;
Edith Jackson, 1898; Alena Gregory,
3O1S; Bessie Keller, 1891. Thus the
excitement ran high. Each party de-
termined that their choice should win.
But the blackboar on the last night
told the story as the count was enter
ed there. The people read for Sarah
Nolan, 1926; Bessie Keller, 6083;
Alena Gregory, 1872 Myra Birdsall,
1922; and Edith Jackson, 1929. Right
here is where some fine work came in.
DR. Vail of the Medicine company gave
the people another chance to make
further purchases and to cast more
votes. Bessie Keeler's friends had
hand to play. She must have that
ring and it is claimed that their hands
went into their pockets deep enough to
raise the number of votes for her
above that which any of the Others
could reach, and the next count show
ed for Bessie Keller, 1913, thus gain
ing for her the first choice of the three
rings in the box, of which there was
no difference in value, but simply a
little difference in style, and giving
Sarah Nolan second choice. But one
could easily see where the real enthu-
siasm was by the hand clapping and
shouting when Sarah Nolan stepped
up to receive her ring and turned her
face to the audience and firmly but
modestly made her speech thanking
the doctor and her friends who had
done SO nobly in carrying her name to
the front and had given her the beau
tiful diamond ring.

LEN. A. C. McCLURG DEAD.
House OF A. c. McCIurg &
Co., of Chicago.

Chicago, April 16.-A private tele-
gram announces the death, at st. Au-
gustine. Fla, of Gen. A. c. McClurg,
head of the publishing house of A. C..
McClurg & Co.
Gen. McClurg was widely known,
both as factor i'll public affairs, in
which ne always showed a lively IN
terest. He served through the civil
war from 1862, entering as a private
in the Crosby guards" afterwards
incorporated in the Eighty-eighth H.
linois infantry, and came out as a
colonel, with brevet rank of briga-
dier-general. He was born in Phila-
delphia, hut grew up in Pittsburgh;
took a course of studies at Miami uni
versity, Oxford, o.. and later studied
law under Chief Justice Lowrie, of
Pennsylvania. He came to Chicago IN
1859.
Gen. McClurg's health began to fail
year ago, and during last winter he
went to Palm Beach, Fla, later re-
moving with his wife to st. Angus
tine, where his death occurred.
