FRANK FISHERS BENEFIT.
Seats for the Performance Are at a
Premium.

"Only few left is stereotyped but
true statement of the sale of seats for the
benefit of Frank Fisher, the vaudeville
actor, who has been in precarious condi-
ton at st. Vincent's Hospital for three
weeks. Fisher is now convalescine. He
suffered from peculiar hereditary naalady
which manifested itself with severe; hem
orrhages of the gums, and the loss of
blood sustained during his illness nearly
brought death. The misfortune came at a
time when his circumstances were adverse,
and the benefit was designed for the relief
of himself and his wife, who, while he
was i'll, appeared regularly at the Grand
Opera House. She is known in staeeland
as Gladys Clark, and she will assist 1T the
benefit.
The announcement of the purpose to give
benefit revealed universal sympathy for
Fisher and his wife. Many well-known
men offered premium for seats merely to
aid the unfortunate husband and wife
Managers Ziegler and Anderson, OF the
Grand, generously donated the whole of
the receipts, without a deduction of a
penny, to the fund. The local lodge of
Elks (Mr. Fisher being a member os the
order) undertook the sale of the tickets,
ana last night there were but few ussold

DAY night from present appearances.
Inc ElkS committee has received offers
from many of the local professionals TO
assist in the performance, but the gem

ELECTION RETURNS.
A Scheme Proposed That Would In
sure More Prompt Service,

AS an aftermath Of the late election and
the vexatious delays experienced in secur-
ing unofficial returns upon which to esti-
mate the result, a number of suggestions
have been made by both Republicans and
Democrats looking toward measures TO
prevent such delays in the future. One Re-
publican ward worker and precinct COM
mitteeman of indianapolis has plan which
he feels sure will accomplish. all that is to
be desired in the way of securing prompt
and accurate returns for the party organi-
cations within the shortest possible time
after the closing of the polls.
The plan involves an amendment to the
election law providing for two additional
members of the precinct election boards
These two men shall represent the two
dominant political parties and are to be
sworn in and paid for their services Just
as the present members of the boards. 1t
shall be their duty to enter the election
rooms just as the polls are closed and to
remain during the counting of the ballots
In the counting they are to take no part
but the moment the work is concluded they
are 10 prepare two tally sheets exactly du-
plicating the officia! sheets retained by the
inspector These extra tally sheets are TO
be certified To- by the members of the board
and then il becomes the DUTY of the two
men TO see that the chairmen of their re-
spective party organizations receive the
sheets without minutes unnecessary de-
lay. They shall be subject TO fines for any
delay deemed unreasonable
This scheme would insure accurate re-
turns TO the party organizations and should
guarantee promptness. Under the present
system IL is no ones specific duty to see
that unofficial returns made promptly
TO the county committees, and as a result
II Is usually from twenty-four to thirty
hours after the closing OF the polls, and
sometimes longer, before the chairmen are
In possession or even approximately COM
plete and accurate returns. Each precinct
committeeman, or the members of the cleo
ton board, are always under instructions
from their organizations to send in returns
as soon as possible, but after serving on
the board for an entire day receiving the
vote. and then late into the night counting

different. Under the proposed plan the two
men whose duty IL should be TO see to this
important detail would come to their work
fresh at o'clock I'm the evening and could
have no possible excuse for falling to do all
that is required OF them.
The plan has been suggested to a number
of political workers and has met with I'M

and Indiana should not be behind the
times"

ton IL was pointed out that the New York

From Democratic sources il was reported
that Mr. kuhn's attorneys had found a
record of something over four hundred pro-

the Democrats say, il is not unreasonable
