Judge Webster Hurt.

AT noon today as Judge Webster
was riding his bicycle home, up State
street, at the corner Of High he en-
countered horse and buggy that had
become unmanageable, being driven
by w. h, Lyons, who lives south Of
the city The Judge was thrown ylo-
lently 70 the pavement and one Of the
horses hoofs struck him severe
blow on the back part Of the head.
The scalp was cut and he was knocked
insensible. Bystanders rushed 10 the
assistance Of the aged Judge and he
was taken into the Capital drug store
at the corner Of High and State, where
Dr. W. II Byrd was summoned to rem,
der medical aid A hurried examiua-
tion was made and he was ordered re-
moved TO his home at 9O3 South
Twelfth street. where he Is resting
comfortably His right side was
bruised slightly by the handebars Of
the bicycle.
The accident was purely accidental
es neither seemed to be to blame. The
judge, who is n years Of age, does not
see well and to this fact the accident
was partly due. The horse is a young
one and not well trained, but the drIy-
er did everything possible to prevent
the accident and as soon as he had put
his horse away he came to render
what assistance he could for the aged
jurIst
At this time It rs impossible to de-
termine the extent Of his injuries, but
on account Of his advanced age they
are necessarily more serious than the
same injuries would be on a younger

IT MAY NOT BE LAW
BUT WILL BE OBSERVED

Mayor Lachmund and the city coun-
eli last night, heart and soul, backed
Councilman Rigdon in resolution for
the abolishment of smoking at the city
election polls out of respect to the
newy enfranchised women voters of
the city.
That the new ruling contains jok-
er Is pointed out by Councilman Tur-
ler who explained his vote after coun-
cl! meeting by saying:
Il voted for the measure because l
knew it would please Mr.. Rigdon and
would do no one else any harm. Be-
SIDES law cannot be made by pass
ing a resolution, so the prohibition
isn't law. Again it carries no pen
atty so if a man wants to smoke at
'ne polls he can smoke, and there VIII
ue no way in which to punish him,
eAcept TO turn him over to the women.

Socialists Claim Credit.

Socialists throughout Europe are
claiming credit today for the sudden
apparently conciiatory attitude of the
powers regarding general clash over
the Balkan dispute. They assert the
proclamation issued by the Socialist
International congress, at Basleee yes
terday, deploring the possibility of
war caused the sudden change of
front.
The Tageblatt, a ldeaing Berlin
newspaper, however maintained to-
day that the situation is unchanged,
and that war is likely. 1t stated 1t had
authoritative information that Ser
vians had shot down Consul Pro-
Chaska, Of Austria, at Prisrend.
The Reichspost, of Vienna, also
Camored for war. 1t said today:
"The time has come to end all inso-
lent provocations.
1t Is believed that Archduke Franz
Ferdinand and his party in Austria
want to precipitate war, but that En-
peror Franz Josef is strongly opposed
to starting hostilities.
Dispatches received from CONSTANT
nOple, where representatives Of Tur-
key and the Balkan allies are dicker-
ing for peace, we're less satisfactory.

AL THE RETURNS
NOW TABULATED

The exactness and precision with
which election results are figured is
strikingly examplifed by the methods
now being used in canvassing the re-
cent state votes.
After the different county clerks
have sent in the official certifcations,
these are checked over for errors,
tren the figures are condensed and
tabulated and Photographic copies
made Of each sheet. These figures
are then rechecked with the adding
machines. After that they will be
officially canvassed by the secretary of
state and the board personally. Then
the tabulated vote on each candidate
and measure will go to the state print
er with the biennial reports and will
be carefully proofed there. This Is
done to eliminate the least possibility
of error so that the election laws may
not only be explicitly followed, but
every measure and candidate given a
perfectly square deal.
The total state vote on the tail end
ballot measures has now been COM
puted and shows that these bills all
lost by substantial majorities, viz:
