SEATTLE, March 6.-With ESQ
precincts out of a total of 291 re-
porting their votes, unofficial re-
turns this afternoon indicate that
George f. Cotterill Is elected may
or by a majority of between 500
and 600 votes. A re-cnecK OF
the count may change the figures,
but a majority of 500 Is consid-
cred a conservative estimate.
The single tax amendment is
apparently defeated overwhelm-
ingly.
The Bogue plans for a "City
Beautiful" which were prepared
at a cost of $4,000, have been
rejected.
SEATTLE, March 6.-By Q
lead of probably about 500 votes
george F. Cotterill, progressive
democrat, was elected mayor OF
Seattle yesterday over Hiram c
Gill, republican, ex-mayor and
open-town advocate, who was re
called from the mayors chair just
one year ago.
In the nomination election Gil
polled 24,632 votes, Cotterill a.
4SO. Yesterdays unofficial re
turns thus far counted give Cot
terih $1,000; Gill 29,600.
The total vote cast is near the
$4,000 mark, yet the two candi
dates ran neck and neck, the city
being almost evenly divided In
every ward except the First, which
includes the vice sections. There
Gill polled four votes to one fol
Cotterill.
In the residence sections, Cot
terill's consistent small leads iI
nearly every precinct overcome
Gill's big majority from the First
ward. The outcome was in doubt
until early this morning.
Four socialist candidates were
defeated in the finals. The So
cialist candidate for corporation
counsel, e. j. Brown, made the
strongest showing and polle6
about $4,000 votes. One socialist
candidate for the council lost by
less than a thousand votes.
Over $4,000 was lost on the
election, much of it at the rate oi

TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS
fankage as a Hog Food.

Tankage Is one Of the best known
materials for balancing up a ration
for hogs and for preventing the de-
PRAYED appetite which is the cause OF
pig eating. It Is a very concentrated
feed and should find a place on every
farm where hogs are kept We still
have inquiries. however. from farmers
who have never used It. as well as
positive statements in regard TO the
possibility Of hog cholera and other
diseases being transmitted and dis
seminated through the tankage. says
the Kansas Farmer. Let rs say again
that there IS no possibility Of hog
cholera or any other disease being
transmitted in the tankage itself un-
less. Of course. the tankage should
have become contaminated after leav-
ing the packing house. Tankage IL
composed Of a refuse Of packing house
and even Of the bodies Of
those which may have died Of disease.
but this material Is 50 thoroughly
cooked under heavy steam pressure
that there is absolutely no chance Of
any germs remaining alive in It.

ALTER CHRISTODORA HOUSE
Clubs Will Use Assembly Room

Christodora House is forced TO scatter Its
activities this summer because Of the maxi
ing of radical changes in the three build
ings which it has occupied. The original
quarters consisted OF one house, No. 1i1
Avenue b. Then a house in 9th street, just
around the corner. was obtained and used
for the boys clubs and as living quarters
for the men residents When the work
grew so that still more space was needed
the house next door. at No. AS Avenue B..
was taken.
Mrs. Arthur c. James gave the settlement
50. 900 last August. ard the directors de-
cided TO alter the property and have a
gymnasium. Work was begun early In
May The house in 9th street had to come
down entirely. and the two fronting on
Avenue b will be so changed as to make
one large building occupy the three lots.
The gymnasium will be in the basement.
This added attraction will mean a great in
crease In the activities of the settlement.
and there will be additions TO the stan Of
workers next year.
The new building will not be ready for
occupancy before October, but the clubs
have not been discontinued The Tompkins
Square branch of the New York Public

ures a piano and a grandfather's clock
