he thought he heard her whistling
for the tunnel. The president
stared at the semaphore. He tried
to rise.
The movement wrenched moan
from his lips. His left arm dangled
at his side.
Too late! The limited shot from
the tunnel and bounded into the
havoc like scared deer.
The president lay with closed
eyes, unmindful of the piled up
wreckage. One thing he had seen.
The semaphore showed clear!

RIOTERS SHOOT UP
THE BALLOT BOX

SHAMROCK KY, Dec. 10.-Seri-
GUS rioting occurred here during
the republican primary election in
the Twenty-sixth district, when a
number of mirers, dissatisfied with
the way the election was going,
shot up the ballot box.
There was hasty scattering of
election officers, but none was in

WHERE WOULD MAN GET OFF,

If she could talk in public.
Proclaim things in a hall
The way she talks in private.
Say, wouldn't men look small?
Deliver curtain lectures
To voters fr:m t1e stump,
Then wouldn't man, the marvel,
Look like a snriveled chump?
If she could rise in meeting
And there lay down the law
As when in home contentious
She agitates her jaw.
She'd make in just a minute
Important noisy gents
Look as they sat and listened
Like less than thirty cents.
For there is something doing
In language. less or more.
