Full Returns Of WashingtOn-St

The most unique feature of the Nokes'
Electrascore, now showing at the Gayety
Theater. is one that marks it essentially
different from other similar devices. as
the ball and the players are in constant
and actual movement all the time.
1t is not merely jump from bast TO

of the men is flashed across the Held. An
like manner the course of the ball IL

field. or to any fielder or basenian
The Electrascore is a very large appa-
ratus, with figures and names or such
dimensions that they may be read plainly
from long distances, as the face Of the
board is twenty-six feet square.
The Electrascore has proved to be very
successful. as many fans prefer to sit in

Sportibg Editor Herald: ! wish to chal-
lenge - Turner. Of your city, to 1nish
wrestling match to take place In your
town. 6bme time ago ! wrestled Turner
at this place and defeated him by taking
two straight falls, thinking that by 50
doing 4 had won the championship belt.
I Was greatly surprised whom Turner
stated that the belt was held by Young
Olsen, az both myself and the public be-
lieved the match to be for the cham
pionship. Now, defeated Turner fair
and square and can do 30 again. I saw
in a recent Sunday edition of The Wash

the belt. and have determined to come
to Washington and remain there until 1
have forced Turner into another match
or have him acknowledge me his supe-
rior. I will post forfeit Of any amount
up to $1,000 and am perfectly willing that
Mr.. P.fF. O'Connor should referee the
match. I think am entitled to square
deal, arid believe the public Is with me.
Thanking your valuable paper for It's

KRAUS NOR VOTES
THA|D OF COURT
Judges and Prosecutor Help
Wealthy Man Who Was
Challenged.

Refused the right to vote in the
third election district polling place
early today after ne had been chal-
lenged. Kraus Nor. noted South
Orange coal dealer, later obtained ere
dentials from Judge Martin and
Prosecutor Hood on which he voted
a Republican ticket early this after
noon. 1t was alleged that he had
been convicted OF fraud and there
fore was DISTINGUISHED of his vote.
Judge Martin provided Mr.. Nor
with a personal letter stating that
the crime of which he had been con-
victed, selling short coal, did not pre-
vent him from voting. Prosecutor
Hood and Judge Osborne agreed.
Mr.. Nor, it will be remembered, was
convicted several months ago of haV-
ing delivered 1,7S5 pounds of coal TO
w. d. Morris, of Academy street,
south Orange. after the householder
had placed an order for a ton of the
anthracite. The case was heard be-
fore Jury in Judge William P. Mar
tins court and Nor was subsequent
Nv sentenced to serve six months in
the penitentiary. Through his coun-
sci he presented an appeal and was
released on bail pending the outcome
of the case in the higher courts. NO
decision has yet been given.
Mr.. Nor was one of the first dozen
TO enter his district
polling place today. His request for
a Republican ballot was granted by
John Jeffrey Murphy, judge of the
Election Board, and Mr.. Nor marked
his ticket in booth. As the ticket
was handed to Judge Murphy, Paul
G. Blanchet, a Progressive, ana can
didate for place on tbs county
issued the challenge.
Il challenge this mans VOTE said
Blanchet.
"On what grounds?" asked the
election officer.
THAT he was convicted Of larceny
or fraud"
Mr.. Nor at once protested, declar-
ing that as he understood the law
one could not be disfranchised of his
right to vote unless he had stolen
more than Sc worth. He then added
that he had not been convicted of
having defrauded that much.
The coal dealer then said he would
make some of those who are accusing
him pay the penalty after he had
been eXonorated Of the crime with
which he has been charged. He left
the place, saying he would return af-
ter having consulted his legal ad-
visor and demand the right to vote.
Nor resides at l South Orange
avenue west, South Orange. His
place of business is also at that adj
dress. His challenger makes his
home in Walton avenue, and is son
of former Village Trustee Louis V.

Wood Ducks Plentiful, to
Ask New Hunting Law

EGG HARBOR CITY, Sept. $3.50
numerous are wood ducks becoming
that the next Legislature will be
asked to repeal the law of 1910 for q
closed season of five years, and make
it possible for an open season for
gunners next fall. Hundreds of ducks
may be seen every day on their
favorite feeding places.
Never before has he seen so many
wood ducks in this county, says the
game warden, William Loder. AS the
federal law prohibits spring shooting,
an effort will be made to have the
season for wood duck and other web
footed fowl opened earlier. as the
ducks have departed for the South
by the time the present season opens.

FREE PRISONER IN
GREENF|EL CASE
Chauffeur Not Responsible fol
Crash Fatal to Official,
Court Decides.

Word was received today from
Spencer, Mass, to the effect that
Louis Almond, a chauffeur, who was
arrested following the killing of Po-
lice Recorder Arthur Greenfield of
East Newark, last Thursday, has been
discharged from custody, it being
proven to the court that Almond was
not responsible for the accident.
According to the evidence. it APP
pears that the car which Almond was
driving and which is owned by Doug
las H. Thomas, a prominent Balti-
more banker, did not strike the car
owned and operated by Recorder
Greenfield. The testimony showed
the Thomas car had passed the other
one.
The Greenfield mahine, it was es-
tablished, skidded on the wet road
and overturned when it struck a
trolley track Judge Henry e. Cottle,
sitting in the East Brookfield Circuit
was satisfied that Almond was in no
way to blame.
Mr.. Thomas told the court that his
car had passed the Greenfield ma
chine safely. He said, after having
gone some distance, he heard an eX-
plosion and looking back saw the oc-
cupants of the Greenfield car lying
on the car tracks. Other witnesses
gave similar testimony.
Assistant Medical Examiner Grant,
of Warren, viewed the body of Mr..
prior to it's removal to
East Newark He said death was
caused by a rushed hest. Mrs.
Greenfield, widow of the recorder, is
still a patient at the Worcester City
Hospital, where she was taken short
ly after the mishap.

WILSON LEAGUE HAS
VERY THIN TURNOUT.
Orange Paraders Lose Their
Way and Receive Little
Attention.

With a few members from down
street" trailing behind a band
which committed an atrocious assault
upon poular melodies, the Woodrow
Wilson League of Orange invaded the
Fourth ward of that city, an old-time
Democratic stronghold, last night.
The corporars guard of the faithful
at first gathered at Freeman and
Valley streets, and for a moment at
tracted the attention of persons of a
moving picture show house, until the
leaders discovered they were stopping
at the wrong corner.
The line was quickly reformed, and,
with the musicians playing Row,
Row, Row." the parade moved to
Valley and Forest streets. The slen-
der turnout was a pathetic illustra-
ton of the straits into which the
league has fallen.
Cornelius O'Donoughue, who seeks
place on the ticket as freeholder,
was the only candidate who showed
up to speak. He is an officer of the
league and had the speechmaking all
to himself. Edward McCloskey open
ed and closed the meeting and not
one cheer was vouchsafed the orators
by the crowd which stood silent and
curious about the saloon steps, which
were utilized as a rostrum. Mr..
O'Donoughue made a plea for him
self.
William f. Hamilton, president of
the league, and few more men who
had been at another session in the
Third ward, hurried over to the Val
ley street meeting, only to meet the
others marching back home.
Fourth ward Wilsonites, who at one
time were prominent in the league,
but departed from its membership,
were conspicuous by their absence
and the gathering established a rec
ord new to Democratic meetings in
the old Fourth-an absolute frost.

Toms River Sheriff Claims
Reward for Hickey Arrest

TOMS HIVER, Sep. 23.-An echo of
the famous Hickey murder case, in
Buffalo, is the statement just made
by Sheriff Frank Tilton that he has
put his claim for $500 reward offered
for the arrest of Hickey, in the hands
of a Buffalo lawyer, with instruc-
lions to sue the city of Lackawanna,
n. Y, for the reward, if 1t is not paid
forthwith.
Hickey, who posed at various times
as temperance advocate and Y. M.
c. A. worker, was really a pervert,
and confessed when caught to killing
three persons, and is now doing time
as the murderer of Joey Josephs, a
Syrian lad, at Lackawanna, whom he
killed and threw into a cesspool.
Hickey was arrested at Writings,
on November IL last The night be-
fore Sheriff Tilton had received a
telegram from the chief of police of
Lacka wanna offering a reward of $500
for the arrest of Hickey.
