MURDERER ESCAPES.

Jewell notified the police who found the
girl dead. She apparently was a servant.
Several persons residing in the vicinity of
the murder were taken TO the morgue
but failed to identify the body.
No trace OF the murderer has been
found. An examination of the neighbor-
hood revealed large pool of blood on
Antoinette street two and a half blocks
from the point where the body was
found.
Coroner Hoffman says the girl was
about to become a mother. She apparent
ly was about 20 years of age.
The murdered girl was finally identified
as Carrie NJ. Jennett OF 1871 Wabash ave-
nue., daughter of James II. Jennete,
cabinet maker. Her murderer has not yet
been arrested. Miss Jennett attended
meeting OF Rebecca odge in a hall not
far from where she was murdered. She
left there about 1915 O'Clock Less than
two hours later her body was found.
A SECOND MURDER.

early today toward running down the

body was found on Thirteenth street at

And now comes General Davis, the

VOTING MACHINES.

A California paper advocates the
use of the voting machine, and says:
New York's experience with voting
machines at the late election is de-
scribed as generally satisfactory. The
machines used were rapid as well as
accurate, and made tampering with the
votes virtually impossible.
1t Is true that some objections were
made, on the ground that the machines
were too complicated for the unedu-
Gated, but so is any form of official
ballot on the Australian plan. No vOt-
ing machine in use could be more puz-
cling to an initiated person than such
an official ballot as was in use in CAL
ifornia at the late election, with is nu-
merous columns, blank spaces and
other d%istracting features. At every
election in this State hundreds or
thousands of ballots are rejected by
election officers for such irregularities
as stamping a cross in the wrong place,
or otherwise making a so-called dis
tinguishing mark" according to the
within or notion of the officials. Or, if
the ballot be not thrown out, the vote
for some candidate is lost because of
failure to put the cross in the right
place, or through some other blunder
of the elector.
With a voting machine all such
blunders are guarded against. Still
more important than the prevention
of such errors is the automatic system
which registers and counts the votes,
as they are cast, and so makes frauds
impossible. At the close of the polls
the results are made known immedi-
ately by the machine, unalterably re-
recorded by punctures on a tally sheet.
Ballot box stufing is thus prevented,
and so also are all the old ways Of
fraudulent counting of votes on in
spection of ballots
