ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 1s.--First joint
ballot for United States senator:
Observation-Disclosures. 80; Shepard, 1S;
Parker. Z; Gerard. 8; Littleton. 2: Her
rick, ..
Republican--Depew, 50; necessary for
choice, 90.
Assemblyman Chanler, who yesterday
voted for Sloehan, changed today to
Shepard.
All hope Of a speedy settlement OF
the senatorial contest was dissipated
today when it was learned that the
Governor had refused the aid which
the Sheehan men sought. John II. Nc
Cooey, Murphy's deputy boss in charge
OF Brooklyn. was the emissary who last
night sought the aid Of tho Governor
McCooey has ostensibly been for
Shepard in this fight, but now con-
siders the caucus action has relieved
him and the Brooklyn delegation, from
any further obligation to the Brooklyn
lawyer
Norman II. Mack Democratic ma
tional chairman, also called on the
Governor on the same mission last
night. Mack spoke strongly in criti-
cism OF the Governor after the confer
ence. It was learned today that Gov
ernor Dix coldly declined to entertain
the proposition made to him by Nc
Cooey and Mack as the ern'ssaries of
Charles r. Murphy. In his talk with
the Governor McCooey urged that a
clear majority of the Democratic legis-
lators having favored Sheehan in the
caucus, II Is now the duty of the Gov
ernor and every other good organiza-
ton Democrat to try to prevent dead
lock and terminate the battle on the
basis OF the caucus action.
The Legislature met shortly after
noon in joint session and began its first
joint ballot.
On joint ballot the roll of the senal5
showed no change tr)m yesterdays
vote, Mr.. Sheehan keeping his 25 votes.
In the Assembly poll the first break
from the Sheehan ranks was made by
MIR. Chanler. who voted for Mr., Snep-
ard.

Uncle Sam to His Jersey Boys

The State OF Jersey dear to me,
Her history loyal and grand can be;
the third, and unanimous. TOO,
That created the nation. and 10 II she's been true.
In peace and in ! have found her all right;
I could count boy for a vote a fight
And don't like to hear what Is whispered around,
That freedom in Jersey is losing ground.
of the rumor is easily found:
governor-elect has been clustering around
Talking about the dear popular will
Though all the time meaning to have his own will.
And this when he knew the thing to regard
Was the will of the nation. which he would discard,
he'll learn that the patriot State of New Jersey
quite easily turned topsyturvy.
And he'll learn that the in her Legislature
viii against law and the pride of their nature
Commit that deed beyond all restitution,
A breach of their oath to the Constitution
In the constitutions of State and land
The laws simple and few but they stand
The wisdom of ages within them compressed
the hopes of mankind their sancity rest.
Then, boys of New Jersey, be true to your trust,
To your patriot sires that slumber in dust.
let all the world kI you stand by their
Your voice and arms for Libertys laws.

Seated one day AT the mirror,
Twas weary of rats and puffs,
And my fingers wandered idly
Over the curls and f1uffs.
/ know not what | was building
Or what l was mimicking,
But | struck a sort of couture
Like the head of an Aztec king!
1t flooded my brow and temples
In a most expansive way;
And il lay on my cerebellum
Like an overweight ton of hay.
1t fell into puffy pillows,
Like that foolish old silk floss;
It seemed a harmonious tumble
OF excelsior and moss.
II linked all my marcel wavings
Into one humpy heap;
Then coiled in a roly-poly,
Like a kitten going 10 sleep.
/ have sought, but | seek il vainly,
That one couture so fine
That came from the head of an Aztec
And decorated mine.
It may be in some shop window
That style l can yet procure,
And il may be that only in JULIA
