BUSY AT
THE COURT HOUSE
County Clerk Haas and His
Force of Deputies Begin
Count of the Votes.
A BIG CROWD WAS THERE.
CIRCUIT COURT WELL FILLED
WITH PEOPLE INTERESTED IN
OUTCOME OVER THE COUNTY
AND OUTSIDE THE STATE.
A BIG CROWD WAS THERE.

AS the fire bells were tolling 6 o.
clock, and the polls were closed, Coun-
ty Clerk, Ed. Haas and his force of
special deputies and also the mem
commissioners, wended their way to
the court room on the third floor
of the court house and began their
vigil and their count of votes which
likely will last twelvs hours or long
er. Clerk Haas is sthe chairman of
the Board of Election Commissioners.
The other two members are G. w.
Gem, Republican and John Thomas,
Democrat. The duties of the election
commissioners are to see that the
count is accurately made by the force
of clerks and also to pass upon any
question as to the legality or con-
tested ballot. The force of clerks is
composed of Charles Newlin, Harry
Smith and Roscoe Frebern, Republi-
cans; Gus Sudhoff, Ben Hill and An
dy Litchtenfels, Democrats.
County Chairman Gardner, Score
tary Converse and their members of
the Wayne County Republican COM
mittee, in addition to a large throng
of people, gathered in the court room
to listen to the returns from the coun-
ty and also to receive the results
from all parts of Indiana and the
country in general.
The results in the precincts in
Wayne County, were telephoned to
Chairman Gardner and later the in
spectors proceeded in person TO the
court room and surrendered the tally
sheets for the official canvass.

ELECTION DAY WAS
UNUSUALLY BAL MY
The Stay at Home Voters Can
Lay Their Apathy to But
Lack of Interest.
VOTING LIGHT UP TO NOON.
LATE IN THE EVENING THERE.
WAS MUCH HUSTLING OF VOT-
ERS TO THE POLLS, REPUBLl-
CANS DOING BEST WORK.

The oldest voter. not even the men
who cast their ballots for William
Henry Harrison in 1910, can recol-
lect of an election day that was quite
ering in the sixties from morning I'M
til early evening, the voters could not
weather conditions and the stay at
homes had to admit that their apa-
thy was due to lack. of interest.
When the polls opened at o'clock
there were genuine rushes in some
Of the city precincts, in which many
factory men voted For almost an
hour the voting was brisk, then it lop-
ped off as suddenly as it began and
from that time untn neon the poll
book holders were not overworked.
At noon and until 1 o'clock there
was another brisk period and then
the afternoon Jagged away until be-
tween 4:30 and 6 o'clock. In nearly
every precinct in Wayne county Re-
publicans and Democrats had vehi-
cles in readiness to round up the
voters at the last minute. but the Re-
publicanS had a better organization
of this kind than the Democrats. Be-
tween 4:30 and o'clock complete
lists of Republicans who had not put
in an appearance were given to the
party hustlers and efforts were made
to bring these men to the polling
places. In some instances the men
could not be found and in few cases
they refused to go and vote when
they were found. One of the unusual
things in connection with the election
was the almost total absence of loi-
tering about the voting places. The
election sheriffs in few instances had
to do in the way of keeping
had a few challenges to make. Ere
quently, in many of the city precincts
voters presented themselves who be-
longed in other precincts. There
seemed to be a great deal of confu-
sion as to precinct boundaries and
there were hundreds of voters who
had to make inquiries as to the pre-
to the location of the proper polling
place. Several challenges of voters
were made because they had moved
out of their precincts and were not
qualified.

ter which occurred Oct % near Da-
kar, Senegal, French West Africa, be-
tween a detachment of French sharp
shooters and a band OF Arabs, during

among the Arabs. A special dispatch
from Dakar says that the arms were
supplied to the Arabs by a German ad-

Vaudeville at the Phillips.

1t must in all candor be said that
Short and Shorty, who are at the
New Phillips this week, are far from
being the least feature on the BILL
They put on novelty musical turn
and also carry a line of dialogue and
capers that are mirth provoking.
Shorty does not belle his name for
he is about the shortest" article, as
far as stature goes that has ever APP
peared on the New Phillips stage and
insisted on being called man. He de-
Glars that it does him no good TO save
his money for should he accumulate
millions he would still be short"
The vaudeville bill this week is prov
ing highly satisfactory because every
number is deserving of favorable
comment. The Davenports, with
their musical comedy sketch; Ed
monds and Haly, singing and talking
comedians; Creo, the climax of the
work of the illusionists; the motion
pictures and the illustrated songs, all
combine TO please and entertain. Last
night, in addition to the usual vaude-
vile, ten rounds of the Gans-Neison
fight, in motion pictures, were pre-
Eented and election returns were re-
ceived. Today there will be souven-
fr matinee, on Saturday special
matinee for children and on Saturday
night double performance Thursday
night vaudeville will be suspended to
make way for burlesque.
