DEAF MUTE COULD TALK
Also Had a Taste for Liquor and Is
Now in Jail.

A fake deaf mute, who gave his name
in a clear voice as ]. W. Mckenzie,
was removed from the busy marts Of
trade this morning while busily en-
gagged in panhandIing. He had a print
ed card soliciting help for a poor mute
who lost his voice and hearing as the
result of BLACK fever" The fakir had
good watch and ST in money-also an
elegant jag.
w. Williams a colora6 restaurant
keeper, whose lunch mill is located near
the Rock Island depot, was arrested to-
day for disturbing the peace" When
captured he was about two jumps ahead
of his wife, who welded a razor and
expressed a desire to amputate some
part of her lord and master. 1t may
therefore be presumed that Williams
disturbed her peace by refusing to sub
nit to the operation.
Williams, according to the statement
of the police, has been enjoying a pro-
tracted booze-fest for the past week,
and has been giving a continuous per-
Torrance. His wife v as just trying to
calm him with a sabre when the police
assisted her by removing the cause.

Gator Says Machines Are Uncertain

The supervisors knew OF what oc-
Cured in 1906. Owing TO the shortness
in finance. l believe the money TO pur-
chase machines would not have been
given this year even IL none OF the
objections mentioned had existed Tie
law was amended so that political par
ties could not be multiplied quite as
easily as before. but still II Is thought
there may be other parties or tickets
additional to those of last year. We
cannot know until the time comes. In
view Of this the supervisors did not
think any investment. OF money In the
purchase of machines prudent at this
time. 1t was thought that at least an
other election should be held to see if
there would be such reduction in the
number OF political parties as to war
rant the belief that machines would
surely hold the tickets in the future
before making so large an investment
In this view I concurred in conversa-
ton with the chairman OF the finance
committee No hearing was had in
committee. 1t is not a fact that any
item OF appropriation for voting ma
chimes was ever stricken out at my re-
quest. or at all No such item was
ever in the budget at any time or ever
offered by anybody
i called the attention OF the finance
committee TO the conditional contract
of purchase and when it became certain
that no appropriation to purchase ma
chimes was to be made and only the
appropriation necessary to the annual
ordinary expenses was to be allowed.
it was agreed that no portion of such
appropriation was intended to purchase
machines and that intention was ex-
pressed in the budget.
No question of the comparative
merits OF machines or ballots was dis
cussed that I know of in making the
budget, but the question Of uncertainty
as TO whether the number of tickets
would or might be greater than the
surface OF the machine would hold was
considered.
