VOTE FOR SHERIFF
IS STILL In DOUBT
A MISTAKE IN PRECINCT NO :
Carlson Gets the Largest Plurality y
on the Ticket.

The vote on sheriff and the con-
troversy by both sides remains un-
changed, each claiming election by
some twenty votes. One of the
clerks at Precinct No. says he
knows that a mistake of twenty
votes has been made In that precinct,
which is now in favor OF Florance.
1t will probably be discovered on the
official count, and the exact result
will not be known until that time.
The fact that the Swedish-Amer
lean club was n power in the cleo
tion was demonstrated by the vote
given to Carlson. who ran 500 ahead
of Taft.
The following totals will not be
materially changed by the official

A N INTERESTING report on tattoo
"A ing in the navy has been made to
Secretary Metcalf by. Surgeon Ammon
Farenholt as a result of his observa-
tons while serving on the receiving
ship Independence at the Mare island
navy yard in California.
The enlistment records of 3,572 men
were examined by DR.. Farneholt, this
being the cnlistments on the Independ-
ence for eight and half years. These
records show that the percentage
found tattooed on examination for sec
ond and subsequent enlistments was
1851, and the percentage found tat
tooed on examination for first en-
listment was 2301. The opinion is ex-
pressed that about 60 per cent. of the
sailors who have served over ten years
In the navy are tattooed.
DR.. Farenholt says It is not fair to
assume from the figures that 20 per
cent. Of the male citizens are tattooed,
as considerable proportion of appli-
cants for enlistment are sea-faring
men. He was surprised to find SO
many, probably eight per cent. of the
recruits, who are tattooed and who de-

ing lived In seaport towns. In DR..

WHEN the bureau Of the census
w took the census of manufactures
In 1905 1t also undertook the task of
classifying the weekly earnings of the
employees in all kinds of manufacture
ing establishments. Questions as to
the actual earnings Of all employees
were asked of each manufacturer In
the country and the surprising num-
Der of 123,307 establishments replied.
This number of establishments is 62.9
per cent. Of all enumerated in the
census and they employ more than
one-half of all the wage earners en-
gagged in the factory Industries In the
country.
In bulletin just issued by the CEN
sus bureau, containing compilations of
these statistics 1t Is shown that Of the
3,297,S 19 wage earners covered by the
investigation, 2.619.o53 were men; $685.

Tattooing Very Popular in the Navy

Farenholt's opinion, the custom is
more common in camps and in places
where men are collected in large num-
bers than is imagined.
The report contains statistics re-
garding the location of tattoo\ marks
and the frequency of various designs
Letters, notices, initials and allied de-
vices lead the list and constitute about
26 per cent. of all ink marks. Coats of
arms and national embleWs follow
with about 25 per cent, then flags,
anchors, etc. Female figures are
shown in Is per cent. of all tattooing.
The usual types were found among
them, such as "Holdfast" "a letter on
the back Of each finger); apprentice
knot; pig on dorsum OF foot, which,
among the older men, was supposed to
shield its possessor from death by
drowning; crucifix, which IN case Of
death would insure burial in Chris
tian country, and Jerusalem cross"
which would answer the same purpose
on Moslem shores. or the latter DR..
Farenholt found IA, all in re-enlisted
men. One man was adorned with .
sock covering each foot and extending
above the ankle; another with a fox

back was covered by a large Masonic
column and globe. Little Egypt" fig
ured in two cases and copy of beer
trademark in one. Designs showing
the Goddess of Liberty, ships, eagles,
pigs and apprentice knots were found
to be more popular on re-enlistment

SENATOR PROCTOR DEAD
Veteran Vermont Politician and Busi-
 ness Man Suceumbs 10 Grip.

Washington, March 4-U. $. Senator Redfeld Proctor of Vermont died at his apartments, at the Champlain here this afternoon, after a short illness fol- lowing an attack of grip. The sena- tors son Gov. Fletcher Proctor of Vermont, who was summoned to the city, was at the bedside when the sen ator passed away.
 Senator Proctor was seVenty-seven years old. He had been ill for about week. His ailment was diagnosed as the grip. which later developed into pleurisy with pneumonia complications which affected the heart and which, in his enfeebled condition, proved too much for his powers of resistance.
 Besides his son, Governor Proctor, the governors, wife and several inti- mate friends were at the bedside when death occurred. The senator's body will be taken to the old home in Proctors- vile, Vt,
 Senator Proctor had been a conspic- uous factor in the political and busi ness interests of Vermont for many years, and was reputed to be one of the wealthiest members of the United States. He was largely interested in the marble industry was identified with other commercial pursuits, was a civil war veteran on the staff of Gen eral William F. ("Baldy") Smith, was secretary of war during President TJarricon's administration and had been in the senate since 1891, when he left the cabinet to succeed George | F. Edmunds.
