LAPORTE COUNTY GIVES
BANNER MAJORITY OF
4577 to VETS.
Liberals Carry Every Precinct in
Michigan City and All But
Two in LaPorte.

Laporte, Ind, May 27.-The
hardest setback the anti-saloon
of Indiana has had since it began
its campaign to make the state
dry was received in Laporte coun-
ty today, when the county went
wet by majority of more than
1000.
The official figures $ h o W
the total majority for the vets to
be 4,5l.. Less than 1900 votes
were cast, so that the wet major
fty is greater than the total num-
Der of dry votes cast.
The city of L.aporte with a pop
ulation of 1900 gave wet ma.
jority OF s,169, while Laporte
Center township made the major
ity 1,24o. Michigan City with a
population of 10000 gave a wet
majority of 1880, while Michigan
City and Michigan township gave
a wet majority of 5000. The 9TH
er - townships in the county
gave wet majority Of $50, max
ing the toal 4,577. Tie wets car
ried every precinct in Michigan
City and every precinct in La
porte excepting Two.
OF the 19 townships in the
county IA were carried by the wet
and only seven by the drys.
Result a Surprise.
The overwhelming majority OF
the wets was a complete surprise
even to the wets themselves, for
the most optimistic did not pre-
dict more than two thousand wet
in the county. The wet vote in the
county was a surprise, particular
ly to the drys, who counted on a
majority of from 1000 to 1,50O
outside OF Laporte and Michigan
City.
A perfect organization and
plenty OF money on the part OF
the business Mems Liberal league
and the Tax Payers league, une
der which names the vets con-
Quoted their organization are Civ
Ell as the reasons for the big vic
tory OF the vets.

Feared for Business.

AS a result OF the victory the
existence of 126 saloons and two
breweries in Laporte county is
not affected.
In Michigan City fear of killing
the town from a business stand
point and fear that it would lose
its Chicago excursion business is
credited with being the cause of
that city giving such an over
whelming wet majority. OF the
1868 votes cast in Michigan City
and Michigan township the drys
obtained only GIG votes.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1909-06-03
Saloons All Closed.

All the saloons in the county
wore closed tonight, the saloon
keepers on their own accord de
Gliding that it would be unwlse to
sell any liquors tonight, for such
wild time would ensue that they
were fearful of the consequences.
AS result of the overwhelming
victory of the vets in Laporte
county, anti-saloon leaders to-
night predicted that no attempt
would be made to vote dry eth
er Lake or t.Joseph counties, the
former containing Hammond and
the latter South Bend.

Story Of Dying Trees.

Attention has recently been directed
TO the number of trees in Glasgow
which are in a dying state, their sick
ly condition being attributed to smoke
correspondent mentions a singular
coincidence in regard to five trees
which John Pattison planted in the
center of his garden in kelvingrove
on the birth of his five sons Two Of
his sons died early in the nineteenth
century, but three lived till after 1850
when there were only three OF the
trees standing. On the night that his
son Matthew died one OF the trees
fell. and on the night of Frederick
and Johns death tsome years be-
tween) one of the trees fell. certain

CAME 70 HIM AS INSPIRATION.
When Mr.. Sankey First Sang the
Famed Ninety and Nine"

The story OF Ninety and Nine" the
well-known hymn the music for which
Mr.. Ira d. Sankey improyised in burst
of deep feeling, was told by Rev. DR..
c. Z. Locke, at the funeral OF Mr..
Sankey. The evangelist had found a
little poem, The Lost Sheep" in a
Scotch newspaper. so runs DR.. Locke S
account In the Brooklyn Eagle. and
had clipped it, One night in Edin-
burgh Mr.. Moody asked him to sing
Mr.. Moody had just finished his ser
mon. The Good Shepherd" Mr.
Sankey had no thought OF composing
a new song. but as he used to tell the
story:
"As ! sat at the organ my fingers
fell on A fiat and my eyes fell on that
little poem. | began to sing, and |
sang the words of that poem
When he had finished, Mr. Moody
rushed down from the platform and
asked him where he had found that
song. He said 1t was the most won
derful song he had ever heard Mr.
Moody was weeping, Mr.. Sankey was
weeping and the audience was in
tears, so great was the impression
produced by the song.
Il sang 1t as God gave ii to me-"
Mr.. Sankey replied. He never changed
note OF the song from the time ii
fell from his lips.-Youth's Companion

Abnormal Twiliqhts.

Twilight which is normally due to
he refraction OF the suns light by the
atmosphere, is occasionally modified
by other natural causes. Rosy glows
n the west after sunset are reported
70 be particularly common in the vi
Unity OF Pordeaux, France. These
are not the usual sunset glows, but
appear in the sky As degrees above
the sun and are supposed TO be due
TO reflection from high clouds too thin
to be seen in ordinary light. The
same Invisible clouds may also cause
abnormal prolongation OF twilight, as
on the first day of last July In this
sine region. where watch could be
easily read up to four minutes OF 10
p. m, whereas on the following night
it could be read only a quarter past
nine, difference of Al minutes. Ow.
ing to the presence OF the thin clouds
above described, these long twilights
are OF use to astronomers as an indi-
cation that the night will not be favor
able for astronomical observation.
