over 5000 persons attended T h e
Journ ais great "Nightinee"
Election Returns show last night.

5000 persons spent election night at
The Journal s nighttime, at the In
ternational auditorium and enjoyed the
latest returns as well as meritorious
vaudeville program. T he ournal
has given these election shows for some
night 8 eclipsed all past performances.
The audience represented the best class
and besides all chairs being filed there
were many, society box parties. Every
detail of the show was carefully ar
ranged and from 8:l5 until l2:45, when
"Good Night' was flashed on the bull
letin sheet, the show moved along with
out hitch.

canvas bulletin, so that everybody was
able to read them quickly and instead
Of the usual pen and ink bulletins, so
many times illegible and difficult to
decipher, T h J ournal gave all bull
letins in typewriter form, clear clean
cut and easy to read. This was the first
time typewriter stereopticon bulletins
have been used in Minneapolis and it

that the plan was worked out. The
local office of the Underwood Type
writer company deserves much credit
FOR executing the idea SO we'll, with
special credit to that company's eff

who wrote all the bulletins on the gela-
tine plates so neatly, rapidly and ac-
curately. c. E: Van Duzee, representing
the Twin City Calcium and StereopticOn
company, personally operated the stere-
opticon, giving the same excellent SER

ceived from him. Mr.. Van Duzee's ami

all the typewriter bulletins were well
displayed. To- r. ...:-.-~..
