VOTING MACHINES IE
 THE STATE ELECTIONS
IMPORTANT QUESTION TO BE
 DECIDED AT TO-DAY,S ELECTION

Constitutional Amendment Which Will
 Give Towns and Municipalities the
 Right to Decide for Themselves
 Whether They Will Use Them-LittIe
 Town Elections and the Election of q
 Congressman to Succeed Brandegee
 Also to be Held To-day.
 It will be town election" day in Connecticut to-day and the day will be featured to an unusual extent by the polling of the entire state on two con- stitutional amendments, an election of congressman in the Third Connecticut district for a successor to Frank G. Brandegee of New London, who is United States senator-elect, and lot of voting of a varied character in many of the larger towns on matters of local import, as for instance in two places the question of consolidation of town and city governments. No election day has brought to the front so many pecu- liar questions on the matter of casting ballots as this one, and not only Sec retary of State Bodenwein issued in- struetions but in many instances it has been necessary for Attorney General King to give interpretations of the law pertaining to matters of vote on cer- tain questions. The congressional elec- tion in the third district will be con- ducted under federal election laws, the vote on the constitutional amendments will be governed by state law for as the entire state is possed in effect there will be state election while towns will adhere to their customary hours of session and mades of depositing bal lots. The differences of form of elec- tion have been harmonized so that there will be no difficulty.
 Of the two constitutional amend ments the more important one is that which, if possed, will give towns and municipalities the right to decide for themselves whether to use voting ma- chimes. It is now permissible of place so desires, to adopt machines for local election, but the constitution is not considered to read clear in the refer ence to a ballot, whether it shall be a written one or not, and the amend ment will clear this ambiguity it is ex- pected by the adoption of the amend ment. The other amendment related to the election of certain local officers. Most of the towns will also vote on the question of adopting free text books, a matter that has been previously un- der discussion, and one which there has seemed to be a great difference of opin- ion.
 The Indications are that the vote cast throughout the state will not be large. In many towns there is larg of in- teresct while in others the question of license invariably provokes a lively town meeting and such are likely to venture tomorrow. The candidates for congress in the third district are May or Charles F. Thayer of Norwich on the democratic ticket and Edwin W. Higgins of the same city, the republican candidate. The district is so heavily republican that Mr. Thayer has great task to win out.

County to Witness the Affair.
 Edna, Tex, Oct. 1,-A person who ar rived here tonight from the Allen pas ture, where the negro Monk Gibson was located this afternoon, reports that sev- eral posses in hot pursuit are being augmented every few minutes and cap .ture is deemed certain. The negro, who is suspected of the murder of Mrs. Con- ditt and her three children, is now known to be on the Navidad bottom. The. officers, 1t is. believed, will never be allowed to take possession of the ne- gro. He will undoubtedly be brought to Edna as soon as caught, and may be held for a very brief period Tn or der to procure evidence from him, but the general opinion a9e is that he. will meet death at the stake before daylight Monday morning. a.t'.'''
 H. H. Beasley, brother of Mrs. Con- dit, the murdered woman, stated that it was the request of his father and mother made tonight, the men be pleaded with in the event that Monk Gibson is captured, not to burn him un- til morning, as they. desired to be pres ent at his execution. and they wanted all the citizens of Edna and Jack coun- ty who desired to see it to be accord ed that privilege. They want the burn ing to occur in suitable public place in Edna. The desire of the father and mother has been communicated to all of the posses reached, and it is gener- ally believed that their advice in the matter will be respected. Should the negro, therefore, be caught tonight, it is very probable that the execution will take place at 10 o'clock Monday morn ing.
