FIRE AT ST. MARY'S.
Students Save the College by Hard
Work.

st. Marys. Kan, March 26.-About
200 students fought a fire which
threatened the destruction of the COL
lege buildings last night. The fire
started in a frame building in which
six employees of the college lived. The
building stood about 100 feet from the
campus. The students were unable
to save the structure, but by carrying
water and using blankets they pre-
vented the fire from spreading
From the building that was burned
the students rescued Patrick Wood,
who is said to be more than 100 years
old. Wood suffered from shock in the
excitement and his condition is said to
be dangerous Henry Dierck, a ma
chinist, was severely burned about the
face and hands. The officers of the
college believe that the hard work of
the students and the fact that a strong
wind was blowing saved the college
buildings. The loss is estimated AT
$4,000.

ST. Louis, Mo. Nov 5.-Unofficial re-
ports from ll3 of the ia counties in Mis-
souri,, sseighty-six of the counties being
complete give Bryan 289.608 and Taft
290,177, Taft's plurality in these counties
being 479 For governor the same coun-
ties give Hadley. republican, 20i,857;
Cowherd, democrat, 296.6O4; Hadley's
plurality, 1888. Only the official count
can decide the political complexion Of the
states electoral vote.
The missing county is Morgan. The re-
publican state committee claims this for
Taft by plurality of 362, which is less
than Roosevelt received four years ago.
On this basis Taft's lead in the state is
now 839, but in the absence of complete
figures the result is far from decisive.
Neither party is sure Of the legislature.
The estimated figures follow:
Senatc-Democrats 23, republicans IL,
House--Democrats SO, republicans rs.
With Morgan county assent, the chances
of any one candidate cannot be fore
casted. A hard fight for the place is Ger
tain when legislature meets to choose a
United States senator and the party lines
may be sroken.

that Judge G. B. Denison. being the oldest
member of the Vinita bar. should move
that the court grant an hours time for ex-
pressions of sympathy and eulogy on the
deceased. This is an honor seldom con-
ferred upon one who is not a member of

cation, and had the deep love and respect
Of his fellow attorneys.

ROOSEVELT AND
BRYAN TO SENATE
Prospect that President and Defeat
ed Candidate May Both be Sent
to Senate Creating Interest

| Washington, Nov. 5-President Roose-
welt and William, J. Bryan will probably
have the opportunity to fight it out to a
finish in the United States Senate. The
Senate, as future arena for Presi dent
Roosevelt, appeals powerfully to him, but
ne is not desirous of entering the Senate
Immediately after the expiration of his
term as President, since he wishes to
leave the field clear for Taft
Senator Platt's term sexpires March A
next, and Elihu Root is favored by the
President for this place. Senator Depew's
term expires March A, 1911. At this time
President Roosevelt would feel himself
free to re-enter politics. He will have
been rested after his hunting trip and
European tour
Public men in Washington are intensely
interested in the news that Nebraska has
elected Democratic Legislature. There
is no vacancy to fill in the Senate from
Nebraska until 1911, so that the Demo-
Gratis will have to hold the Legislature
more than two years from now if Mr..
Bryan is to become senator. The term
Of Seeatcr Elmer j. Burkett expires in
1911. 1t is assumed that Mr. Bryan would
be elected to the senate by Nebraska if
the State should have democratic legis-
lature. Those who hope for a hot time in
the capital city ardently wish that Theo-
dore Roosevelt and William ]. Bryan be-
gin cervice in the senate together.
Dispatches from Lincoln. Neb.. last
night state that Mr.. Bryan is now opposed
to any movement to elect him to the SEN
ate. He feels that he owes too much to
the available Nebraska democrats to
thrust himself between them and the
senatorship, if the democrats should be
equally fortunate in the next legislature.
The disposition of Nebraska democrats,
however, is to unanimously get behind
him for senate in 1911.

CHARLES B. HANFORD IN
The TANNING OF THE SHREW

1t was the Shakespearean play that
monopolized the interest Of the evening
by reason Of its really admirable presen-
tation. Not only is Mr.. Hanford complete
master Of Petruchio and Miss Drofnah a
charming and individual Katherine, the
shrew, but every one of the more promi-
nent parts was well played, and the per-
formance proceeded with spirit and eclat
that was something of revelation to
playgoers.
Mr.. Hanford has every reason to feel
proud of his success. His impersonation
is presented with confidence and finish
that distinctly identify him with the role
AS an Interpretation it stands out clearly
in conception and definition. 1t is marked
by strong nervous force and general ella
ton of spirits and presented with poise
that denotes the artist whose mere techni-
cal skill has been gained in school of
standard art
Miss Drofnah fairly shared the honors
with the star. She distinguished nicely
between the shrewish temper Of Kate and
the tenderness of the woman when her
spirit is subdued, presenting the character
with an intelligent grasp Of its salient
traits and charming her audience by her
grace and Washington Cd

when the republican and democratic poll
ticians, to say nothing of mere voters, be-
gan early today to look over the results
Of the election. At the opening of the

Maryland, with eight electoral votes, is
claimed for Taft with margin Of 1876 and
few districts to be heard from
In the case Of Missouri the late tidings
give Taft the apparently narrow margin
of 81 and seem to make practically certain

BRYAN SATISFIED

Offset by Satisfaction of Complete
Victory in Home State

Lincoln, Neb., Nov 5-While not caring
to discuss at this time the political effect
Of the Democratic victory In his home

yesterday evening. in an informal talk to
number of friends who called on him.
expressed his pleasure at the result in
Nebraska. and the satisfaction it afforded
him to learn of the election of so many Of
his personal and political friends.
A delegation of nearly hundred from
Lincoln visited Mr.. Bryan at Fairview to
express to him their confidence and de-
votion, and to assure him that such was
the sentiment of the majority of the people
Of his city and state. Mr.. Bryan, in re-
spending, said:
Il am highly gratified over the results
in this state. The national defeat has
not been such disappointment when we
have SO many things to console u.s.
hope have convinced my friends that
running for Office has only been an incl
dent in my work.
my heart has never been set ON hold

works, and it looked as though the presi-
dency might offer the opportunity to do
that work. | am sure that in private life

that much is within the reach of each of

Personally, shall find as much jDy

must be, as would to be in Office. hope
still to be of influence to bring about
needed reforms. appreciate very much
the confidence and loyalty of the people
near us. 1t has been the greatest comfort
that the election has1 given us. The fact
that those among whom we live have
shown this confidence. we appreciate
more than can tell you. II has been
very kind in you to come out here and
visit ms on this day"
The defeat he sustained Tuesday did
not weigh heavily on Mr.. Bryan. He was
one of the most cheerful of those at his
home and laughed and joked goodnature lily
with his visitors. Lastnight MI. r.Bryan was
the guest of honor at the banquet of the
state teachers association where he made
a short address. He has no other imme-
date plans than to rest at home following
his canvass.
