At RcGfe,d.

You will see that Matthews, the dpfpated democratic nominee for maS istrate and myself ran together, ai each place and that McNel and the negro ran together
 An analysis of this vote shows such. a close parallel between the vote at each place in the vote cast for Nc Neil and that cast for the Negro re- publican candidate for justice of the peace Tom Mingea, as to leave nc uoub1 in an unbiased mind that the same or practically the. same votes were cast for each.
 This statement of the votes is taken from the returns of the General t,lec- ton as certified to by the Election Commissioners, and nine tenths of the whiye voters of Barraque township. Will hear ne out in my deductions
 Of course this is a free country, and ! man may do as he pleases, so long as he violates no law, but every white man knows the need of party loyalty, in tnis section, and when a atea asks for a party nomination. he anoa}d have clean record IS to ls;4.sv loyalty and no stain of conf vance xoTaver remote with the n"sro F pal iican clement in politics.

TOWER OF LONDON.
Tho Perfect System by Which Its
 Treasures Are Guarded.

ITcdSlfeS Sfe Sudf dSut
 The Tower of London has the most perfect system of burglar alarms that has yet been devised.
 From Scotland Yard, from ttr r0V ern0r'g headquarters 0ul from OtlGt places known only to a few respou~ sible Officials the whole Tower can be closed electrically within q few sec onds Even the ponderous gates at the middle tower. which weigh some tons and through which visitors pass, swing to automatically, aud the escape of every one within is instantly barred. fAt the same time all alarm bell rings to warn wardcnS, police and soldiers.
 In particular the precautions in the apartment containing the crown jrW- els are of a most scientifically ctaho- rate kind. One of the becfeatcrS "ll duty in the room has merely to urcss E button. whereupon the heavy door closes, the alarm bell below rings, tne other gates slam to and lock, and every person within the tower is instantly cut off from tAe cutter world.
 "The man who can set away with any of the crown jewels deserves them.' observed 2 Tower ofieiai. From where l am standing l could close every important door aud gate in the Tower in as short q time as il takes to utter these words.
 II was mainly to insure the safety of tue crown jewels tbat the system was Installed.
 No order had been issued for the closing of the Tower on q recent Sat nrday when, greatly to their alarm, the visitors found doors locked, bolted and barred against them for about ten ninlstes. preventing any one leaving the Power
 "The Tower simply clnsed-that is al, remarked an official. Who caus ed it to do so We do net know 1t might have been Scotland Yard where the pressing of button would i'm prison every soul within the Tower un- til tha police gave the sigEs, for their release. or it might have been the governor, anxious to learn whether we were all at our posts, At any rate, it was none of the minor officials.
 'ln fact, who closed the Tower and why is a secret known only to the highest authorities There was no alarm, no attempt to seize the crown jewels" London Mail.

speaker-arIor Meetings to Be Re-
sumed,

The w. C. IT. U. had a large at
tendance Monday afternoon in its
rooms for the October meeting, which
was called to order by the president,
Miss Harriet G. Cross, who conducted
the devotional exercises. The usual
reports Of the secretary and the treas
urer were presented and approved.
The l.. L. l.. superintendent. Mrs.
Lucy Fields, reported two meetings so
far this season, marked by large at
tendance and much interest. For the
Y. w. G. It. u. she reported two meet
ings also, one having been for Miss
Wizards birthday anniversary.
Miss Cross gave a comprehensive
report on the county convention,
commenting especially upon the win
ming of the membership banner by
the Norwich US from the Norwich
union, which had held it last year.
The US won the banner through a
MEMBERSHIP rain from 16 to 81.
The programme of the state con-
vention was read by the correspond
ing secretary, Mrs. 8. Howard Mead,
and also communication stating that
Rev. Mr. James would be unable to
come here for the lecture to school
children for which he had been want

dates in October to come here. 1t was
left to the executive committee to ar
range to have her come here to speak
before the women's clubs.

AT BROADWAY THEATER.
The Girl from Reetor,s.

1t was for The Girl from Rector 5
to bring Lut a good sized audience at
the Broadway theater Tuesday even
ing when Paul Potter's comedy serv-
ed ~ keep the audience interested
throughout the four acts. 1t remind
ed one OF The Blue Mouse, although
not as bright and clever, but of the
same style, with plenty of life and
much implied. 1t was based, as the
author says. on the strange theory that
married men often lead double lives,
and produced in the hope that it will
be a warning to American husbands,
matrons and maids.
The three stage settings are hand
some. while the company was finely
selected all the roles being well look
ed after. Perhaps the one making the
big hit was Joseph Daley, who in the
role of Prof. Mabbon found plenty of
opportunity to display his ability as
comedian, and he was a decided sue
cess whenever he was on the stage.
As Louie, The Girl from Rector's, Cora
B. Turner was attractive, and gave
clever Interpretation of the double life.
As Richard, E. CONT AIbertson was
decidedly good, and Thornton Friel as
Colonel Andy Tandy kept the fun at
the speed limit. Claire Grenville as
Mrs. Copley pleased, while Marguerite
Slavin was the innocent unsuspecting
maid. w. s. Draper as the deacon
played the crouch to perfection, and
III. w. Frederick as the Judge carried
his role well. Frederick Fisher wasn't
seen long. but he caused spasm, his
makeup was the last word.
The dance Of the three madcaps in
the third act brought forth much ap-
plause.

FREE TEXT BOOKS
AT TOWN MEETING.
Matter Will Have Thorough Discus
sion-Cost Estimated at About $10,-
900.

An important part of the town meet
ing next Tuesday evening will be the
discussion relative to the free text
books, which matter has been incor-
porated in the warning upon a petit
ton from Occum. In speaking of the
marier IN Tuesday an official stated
that it would probably cost the town
at the start $4,000 to $4,000 to fur
nish free text books the first year, and
that large sum would be required
each year for, changed books or re-
placing those which had become worn
out. as II health measure, he did not
think it good idea for children to be
using books which others had used.
This discussion also led to the state
ment that it was not believed that
half the voters on Monday understood
what they were voting for on the con-
solidation of school districts. AS the
consolidation was defeated, there viii
be no change, but had the yes vote
won all the districts in the city as well.
as the town would have been consolf-
dated under one head. There was a
very small vote on the question and
it was lost by only go votes.

A relic of the Shannon building
fre that produced surprising results

the building Tuesday in the shape of
a picture film that had been left at
Bormap's studio on the top floor to
have some prints made. Two small
boys were looking over the ruins
Tuesday when they came across this
film which they took home to their
sisters. who made a print from it out
of curiosity.
It proved a rich find for the young
women, for it Produced a picture of
eight young men Of their acquaintance
and well known an social gatherings in
this city, who had posed for a group
picture in female attire. The film had
come through the fire unframed be-
sides withstanding all the various
weather changes since the time of the
fire, February 9, 1909, and the -~ints
made were clear and distinct. Some
of the young men in the picture were
told of the find, when they recalled
that the film had been left with Bor-
man, but they supposed it was lost
forever.
