"IN this precinct women de-
liberately entered the polling
places, marked, folded an d
placed in the hands OF voters
known to be wet, the ballots
cast, which were dry, thus de-
ceiving the voter and violating
all moral and civil laws OF right
and decency."

general result. Striking out

In directing the attention OF
its readers to the above extract
from an article printed i'll last
weeks Maverick the REPUBLICAN
will also ask them to dwell a
moment upon the character and
standing of the noble women
who are thus maligned and Ii
beled as opposed to the ante
cedents, character and career,
so far as can be readily obtained
of him, on whom must rest the
responsibility for these malign.
ant and untruthful charges.
If a parallel so absurd and ridi-
culous as comparison OF his
character and standing with
that OF even the msanest and
most abandoned wretch in all
nature exists, an amazed public
awaits it on the tiptoe OF expect
ancy and incredibly. AS we'll
defy the lightning as attempt
such parallel. 1t can't be done.
This, however, can be accom-
plished: Decency and right
eous Indignation can compel the
production OF proof OF the
charges, failing i'll this. a full
public retraction; If this small
need OF justice lie denied, then
he who is responsible for the
outrage upon the women of
this and other precincts of the
county should be elevated upon
pedestal OF nfamy so high and
bold that jewellers in the deep
est caverns may read the dark
inscription. The proof; bring
forth the proof.

"Speaking of men coming to the
Union Grill for handout," said Man
ager John Detor yesterday, sit is
nothing new to us There are, a lot
of people who visit our back door, and
generally if they re not drunk, they
get something. Why, there is one pen
sioner on our list who has had meals
there every day since the Grill opened
about eight years ago He is an aged
Italian, who gets his breakfast and late
lunch regularly. He never has dinner
with US. He has a free room at or
near the Sailors Home He is unable

his favorite resting place has been on

"There are lots of newsbovs who
keep hunger off by waiting at the back
door for pieces of bread and odds and
ends. That saves them SO much from
their earnings from paper sales.

1t is said there are lot of men in
town who apparently dropped down to
the Islands to bum, and that there are
hard cases on the list. Many of these
are men dropped off the transports who

Manila or San Francisco drop the stow
Always off here Their is no way to
stop this custom, as it is an American

Many men, however, have been re-
garded as hard cases, merely because
their clothes are rough. Many of these
are mechanics who came here to get
work on government jobs. Some of
them are working, and owing to the
fact that they are in town infrequently
their appearance gives rise to the idea
that they are buns. A few of the real
buns have been picked up and for

Boy Drowned.
Memorial Services at Old Bethlehem
HAIRED by Sad Event.

The day dawned fair for fine
time at Old Bethlehem Saturday,
and the people from all parts of
the county had come to spend a
gala day. Everything went
smoothly, TIE best of order pre-
vailed and every person present
were immensely enjoying the oc-
casion, when at about 2:30 o. clock
a messenger from the river burst
into the crowd with the startling
news that a boy had been drown
ed in the deep hole below the
mouth Of Bull river, and men
were wanted to help search the
murky waters for the body. I'M
mediately the program was
brought to a close and the crowd
hurried to the river bank near
where the terrible accident oc-
Cured, hoping to restore life if
the body could soon enough be
found.
The 10y, whose name was Earl
Kimball, and who was a son of
Bud Kimball, Of Sand Ridge, was
IA years old and large for is age.
He, together with three other
boys went to the river to take a
swim. He had just jumped into
the water and swan about half
way across the river when, it is
presumed, he became overcome
with fatigue and fright, and
started back to shore. The boys
who were with him state that he
came to the surface II or Is times
after he started to drown, but
none Of the boys were able to res
GU e him. The efforts to find the
body, which was drowned at
about 2:30 in the evening, were
unavailing until 1880 when a
large sein handled bya half doz-
en- or so men dragged the body
to the shore,

MrS. G. Warren Hays Dead.

News reached here Saturday
of the death at Parkersburg near
midnight Friday night, of Mrs.
Mary Hays, wife of Hon. G.. w.
Hays formerly of this county.
She had been an invalid for ma
ny years but up until a few days
ago she had been in her custo-
mary health. Friday afternoon
she was taken severely worse,
and at 1890 O. clock Saturday
morning the Death Angel called
and took her perfect soul from its
frail and pain-racked body to!its
reward in Paradise. All who
knew this lovely woman loved
her, and when the sad intelli
gence reached this, the county
which was her home Tor many
years, and where her friends
were legion, many heads and
hearts were reverently bowed
with sympathy and bereavment
and as her angelic soul slipped
from its mornings and foated out
on the waveless calm of eternitys
ocean to haven OF endless peace

Ten proposals for the construction
of 10, 700 square feet of paving and
about $4,000 HneaI feet of curbing
were opened at noon yesterday by tbs
Board of Bond Trustees, all con-
struction companies submitting proc
posals having representatives at the
meeting, which was held in the coun-
Gil chamber.
No announcement could be made at
the time asE to the lowest and best
bidder. as Consulting Engineer Hatton
will have to figure on each of the
bids, including the time the various
bidders agree in which to complete
the work Immediately after the
meeting all of the proposals were
submitted to him, and 1t is probable
that he will be able to furnish the
board with the required data by this
afternoon, in which event a meeting
will be held At this meeting the
board probably will make recon-
mendation to the council as to the
lowest and best bidder. and as that
body is to meet tomorrow, it is very
probable that the contract will be
awarded and the work commenced.
SATISFACTORY BIDS.
Those who are acquainted with paw
ing work claim the proposals sub
mitted yesterday are very low and
satisfactory Especially good bids
Is ere submitted by AL of the con-
tractors on brick with cement foun-
| dation and cTeosoted wood block with
similar foundation. The board has
not determined upon the class of paw
| ing to be done, but called for bids
! upon various classes, and will select
| the one on which the most satisfac-
| tory bid is made. Some of the con-
| tractors call for two hundred days in
which to complete the work, and
others as many as 500 days.
The bids submitted by each of the
| contractors is published elsewhere.
