Two Voting Places

The following letter received has
been received from Chairman Vandi-
yer, OF tire Democratic state Central
COMMITTEES. speaks for itself:
baltimore, Md, oct. ~. 'O1.
Editor of ~ ming Capital.
Dear Sir:-I have befn informed
that a number of Democrats IN the
state are under the impression that
" hen they go into the polling booth
To vote the state and county ticket
at the general election, they are To vote
at the same time for their choice for
United states Senator Any attempt
to do this would iDyalidate the entire
ticket. / should like 10 call especial
attention TO the fact that Democrats
must first vote the Democratic ticket
and afterwards 20 into another and
separate polling place (Which should
be at least one hundred feet from the
polling place where the general cleo
ton is being held. for the purpose
of voting for Senator.
First vote the Democratic ticket ;
then. leaving the booth, go to the
polls where Senatorial primaries are
being held, and vote for Senatorial
candidate.
The interests Of the party demand
that no mistakes shall be made.
Very respectfully yours,
MURRAY VANDIVER,
Chairman.

George Washington Jr.

George NJ. Cohan's musical play,
George Washington, Jr..' will be
presented at the Colonial Theatre Sat
urday night. The piece is another
Cohanesque mixture Of the ingredients
that made Little Johnny Jones"
rather uncommon in its kind. There
is a flavor of melo-drama, touches of
plain sentiment, pattering tunes, gem
eral Iiveliness, an outward semblance
to everyday life, sbrewd humor and
much of young Mr.. Conan.
The plot follows the adventure of
a Senator's son, who being disin-
herited, takes the name of George
Washington, Jr.," Living up to it
he circumvents his fathers political
and business enemies, puts sundry
English rivals to rout in love and
intrigues, aud by SO doing earns a
statue erected by grateful father
To n dutiful son. The play will be
presented here by large and splendid
company, including such fayorites
as Carter De Haven, Willis II. Sweat
nam. Flora Parker, LeOna Anderson,
Lulu Hoffman a nd a Cobanesaue
chorus
