ALLEE SCHEME
TO GET VOTES

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER. Nov. 2.-rho Independent
Republicans have adopted a unique plan
to secure votes for their ticket. The
plan, It is said. was originated by For
mer United States Senator J. Frank
Alice. Instead Of a. voter marking the
ballot himself he is to go into the cleo
tion place with sample ballot I'm his
hand marked exactly as he intends to
vote
With the marked sample ballot IN his
hand he is to call for both the sworn
Democratic and Republican voters as
sistants and demand that his lawful
ballot be marked by them in the same
manner as the sample ballot is marked.
The voter viii then compare the two
ballots to see II the lawful ballot Is
marked according 10 his wish.
The name Of the Republican candi-
dates for electors and the Republican
nominee for governor viii be written
on the ticket and In this way the voter
win cast his ballot just as though there
had been no designations from the Reg
ular Republican ticket. The ballot hav-
ing thus been prepared by the voters
assistants, it is figured out, must be
counted.

WHOLE FAMILY WAS
NEARLY ASPHYxIATED

William L. Missimer. OF No. l102
West Seventh street. assistant secrc-
tary of the Delaware Trust Company,
his wife and their eighteen months old
baby. came enar being asphyxiated by
gas at their home yesterday morning
But for Mrs. David Missimer. the
mother Of Mr.. Missimer. the fumes
might have caused the death Of the
members of the family.
Mr. Missimer was awakened about s
o'clock by a sitting sensation and on
getting out of bed his head almost burst
with pain. He called to his wife and
after shaking her she finally awoke but
on attempting to leave the bed she fell
unconscious.
The elder Mrs Missimer was down
stairs and heard the noise of the fall.
She ran to the room above and found
all three victims in a bad way and for
a time it looked as though the baby
would die.
After partly recovering from the ef-
fects OF the gas. Mr.. Missimer went on
his bicycle for a doctor He fell from
the machine several times while on
the way 10 the --'----' '---'s house but he
finally reached a-- Office of DR.. l.. A.
Kitten~er who '..--..'~d to tho Missimer
home. He administered to the wife and
baby and in a short time had them out
of danger.
The trouble was due 10 gas leaking
from a reading lamp in the bedroom
which had been left burning when the
Missimers retired.
