Hindoo peninsula has such deleterious
effects upon the keeping qualities of
butter that government officials are
planning to pack this product in col

All Right for Mrs. Newlywed, But
1t Was Rather Rough on the
Butcher.

Mrs. Newlywed did not know much
about housekeeping and was always
cheated when she went to the nearby
butcher store after her supplies.
After a particularly tough bird had
been with difficulty disposed of she
went once more to the butcher and
said:
How many young chickens have
you today?''
The butcher said: Il have but
three in the shop"
q want two of the toughest you
have" said Mrs. Newlywed.
The butcher was surprised, but
brought out two and assured her that
these were the toughest in the place.
Had them there for week or more,
he said.

New York.-Tammany Hall was
showed under in the city election,
Fusion carrying all before it.
John Purroy Mitchell was elected
mayor by a. plurality in excess of
100000 and which may reach 700
when all the votes are counted. Ed
ward E. Mccall, his Tammany oppo-
nent, early gave up the fight, sent a
telegram of congratulation to Mitchell
and went to bed.
Fusion elected William A. Prender-
CAST, Progressive, comptroller by
nearly $4,000 plurality. 1t carried
George McAneny into the presidency
of the board of aldermen by about
$4,000.
The election of these thee men over
their Tammany opponents gave the
fusionists nine votes out of the sixteen
in. the board of estimate, which con-
trolls the pursestring of the munich
patty.
In addition fusion candidates were
chosen to the borough presidencies of
Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx,
adding five to the total and giving
fusion fourteen votes to Tammany's
two.
Apparently, with the exception of
assemblymen in the districts which
usually go Democratic and minor Of
ficers m some of the boroughs, the
opposition to fusion succeeded in
electing only two of its nominees for
borough presidents of Queens and
Richmond.
| The fusionists elected borough pres
| idents in Brooklyn, the Bronx and
Richmond, and apparently have pulled
| through their candidate for president
of the borough of Manhattan, Marcus
| NJ. Marks, by a small plurality over
DR.. Thomas Darlington, Tammany.
The result thus indicated would leave
Tammany only one vote out of sixteen
in the board of estimate, which con-
trolls the city's purse. A fusion major
ity in the board of aldermen also
seems assured.
In the Sixth Assembly district Will
liam Sulzer, recently deposed as gov

ticket by a large plurality.
