MANY ARRESTS.
New York Voters Rallied to
Their Work After Dinner.

New York, Nov. 5.-Scores of arrests
for alleged violat ton of the registration
and election laws were made during the
day at the request of the state election
deputies, but a majority of the men
were discharged for lack of prosecution.
The election deputies were provided
with lists prepared in advance and
requested the arrests of suspects the
moment they appeared at the polls.
There was some disorder during the
forenoon but none of it was serious.
At o'clock Chairman Robert C.
Morris of the Republican county COM
mittee said:
AT this hour, the vote is coming out
heavily, which is good Indication for
u.s.
At 8 o'clock. the heavy vote continued
and the indications at that hour were
that large percentage of the regis
tration would be voted The losses of
made up. Several districts reported
that 70 per cent of the vote was in at 2
o'clock. Good order prevailed through
the early hours OF the afternoon.
SLOW VOTING AT PITTSBURG.
Pittsburg, Nov 1.-THE apathetic con-
dition increased as the day advanced
and at many polling places in Pittsburg
and Allegheny the officers declared that
they had never known such a light
turning out of voters. 1t is evident
that if anything like the usual vote of
an off year election is to be polled there
will be a grand crush about the booths
late this afternoon.

GLOBE SIGHTS.

From the Atchison Globe.1
Clerking in some stores is the next
thing to loafing.
Some people are so two-faced that
they deceive themselves.
People who have soft snaps are usual
ly the ones who don't enjoy them.
An Atchison woman was never ac-
cused of being pretty until she put on
mourning.
There are men who behave when
alone in a big city. but the women do
not think so.
You think some of your acquaint-
ances act funny" And you bet they
think you act funny
druggist is pretty apt to be known
as doctor as a lawyer is pretty apt
to be known as Judge"
A boy who doesn't like to work, never
has any trouble in convincing his
mother that he is sick.
Sometimes a rich man thinks because
he does not owe the public any money,
he does not owe it any politeness-
Cliff Rothrock looked in the window
of a furniture store long enough this
morning to start a marrying story on
him.
When a girl gets a crochet needle
and some white stuff in her hands, she
also gets an idea in her head that she
makes such a pretty picture the men
long to grab her up, and put her in a
home of their own.

Sky gazers are already interested in
the possibilities of the November
meteoric shower which is due anywhere
from the 18th to the 18th of the month
There was a great shower in 1893, and
another great one in 1888, thirty-four
years later The theory had been adj
vanced that the great shower came
every thirty-three years, and another
one was predicted for 1866. but it did not
come There was, however. great dis
play in 1868, or thirty-five years after
the previous display Each year, in No
vember, there is generally a greater
number of meteors than at other times,
while in some Novembers they are suffi-
cient in number to rise to the dignity
of what might be called a shower. In
the last dozen years there have been
great many notable displays of this
Kind.

THE MANHATTAN MURDER
Tom Ashby's Reputation Not Always
Above Par.

Manhattan, Nov. 5.-Tom Ashby, 9TH
erwiSe known as "Black Diamond .
who shot and killed Frank Wolf, has
an unsavory reputation here. He and
his wife have been running a tough re-
sort in the south part of town. Men
and women have been seen going and
coming there at all hours of the night.
The A. NJ. E. church stands a few rods
from this joint and at times beer bot
ties have been thrown at the worship
ers as they came out.
Two bullet holes were found in his
ceiling of the house and one through
the victims heart.
Ashby went to the sheriff and con-
fessed to have done the killing but will
say nothing further. Harry Barwick
a marble cutter is said to have been a
witness, but he is missing today.
Wolf, the victim was employed ut
Ziegler & Doran's hardware store, hav-
ing come here recently from Scranton,
Pa. He was formerly married but has
since parted from his wife.
Ashby and his wife were sent to the
penitentiary from Junction City for
robbery seven years ago for a term of
ten years, but Governor Leedy pardon
ed them after four years service. Mrs
Ashby served a term of two years for
theft at a previous time.

senators

Jones and Stewart. U. S. senators
from Nevada, who left the Republican
party on the silver issue, have returned
to their old political affiliations. If the
senators were mistaken through all
those years which they spent outside of
the fold they should say so frankly, and
publicly. It is a duty they owe to a
number of persons in various parts of
the country, who followed their leader
ship 1t is not just to themselves nor
to their friends and supporters to allow
the charge to stand which was advanced
during a number Of campaigns to the
effect that the Nevada senators were
members of a syndicate whose object
was to advance the price of silver for
their own private profit and without re-
gard to the countryS welfare Their
change of front may have a tendency to
confirm the public in a belief that
charge was true
