awaited himself of the permission he
had received to use the negro. After a
hard fought game the Arlingtors won
by q few runs.
When the game was finished some
said that it had been won by Beatrice
Bars presence and encouragement.
At any rate, she was adored by the
members of her brothers team, and
there was not one of them who would
not give his head to serve her A few,
while attributing the Arlingtons' sue
cess to her, referred that success to a
far different cause. They said that if
Captain Thruston had kept his eyes off
Beatrice Barr and fixed his attention
bn the game the score would have been
very different.
The second game was played under
very much the same conditions, and
again the Arlingtons won. By this
time a number of the Crescents had
noticed that their captain was not do
ing his best. and one of them went TO
him and eXpostulated. Thruston knew
very well what was the matter with
him, though he did not reveal the Sc

Election law in the State has
Been Changed.
Election Officers Should be
Careful About new
Citizens.

The state Constitution has been
amended in so far as it relates
to the voting by citizens who
have taken out their first papers.
This amendment should be care
fully studied by election officers
in this county for the reason
that many who have recently
taken out their intention papers
have an idea that they may vote
at the election this spring and at
the general elections this fall.
Subsection 2 of Section l.,
Article Ill of the Constitution of
Wisconsin has been amended as
follows:
"Persons of foreign birth who
prior to the 1st day of December
A. D. 1908, have declared their
intention to become citizens con-
formally to the laws of the United
States on the subject of natural
ization, provided that the rights
hereby granted such persons,
shall have ceased on the first day
of December, 1912.
The above simply means ac-
cording to an opinion recently
rendered by the Attorney Gen
eral to Clerk of Court Bell, that
all persons who took out their
first papers prior to December
1st, 1908 but have not taken out
their second or full papers may
vote, but that all persons who
have taken out their first papers
since that date and not their
second. cannot vote. After De-
cember 1st, 1912, all voters must
be fully naturalized before they
can be permitted to vote. This
is important news for many in
this county. Town officers in
many of the towns in the county
should be on the look out. Sew
eral days ago sixteen Austrians
from the town of Pilsen were in
the city and took out their first
papers. They cannot vote until
they have become fully natural
lied. The same is true of voters
in a number of other towns in
the county.
