Make the Best Wives.

A fellow that has one says that
telephone girls make the best wives.
They get in habit of hearing kicks

their mouth shut and look pleasant,
letting the other fellow do all the
talking, and they are so different
from the rest of the sex that he'd
advise anyone in the market TO make
a break for the telephone office forth

POPULAR PLURALITY $4,000.

Newark, N. J., May 30.-Theodore
Roosevelt's clean sweep Of the New
Jersey primaries was emphasized
when late returns gave him small but
substantial pluralities in the few dis
tricts about which early figures left
any doubt and increased his lead
elsewhere throughout the state.
Governor Woodrow Wilson carried
all but two Of the twelve congression'
al districts and gained twenty-four OF
the twenty-eight delegates, including
the delegates at large. His open
ents abandoned hope that they had
carried the Eighth district, where the
vote was close.
Uninstructed delegates nominated
by the anti-Wilson wing of the party
were elected by large majorities in the
Ninth and Tenth districts. the strong
holds of the element opposed to the
governor.
Incomplete returns on the vote for
delegates at large and the presidential
preference indicated that Colonel
Roosevelt's popular plurality for the
whole state would be about $4,000 and
that Governor Wilson's lead, based on
the vote for delegates at large, was
about the same. .ihu

The president had small plurallties
