Contestants and their friends began
to come into the office early in the
evening. and from that time until the
Judges announced the decision the

One OF the most interesting features

All Eminently Fair.
This fulalls the promises made by
the Daily Telegram when the contest
was started, and marks a fitting close
to the most interesting contest
struggles for supremacy ever attempt-
ed in the state of West Virginia.
The leaders are proud oftheir sue

a fight for leadership and failed have
every reason to agree that every move
was fair and honorable as the strictest
construction OF the rules and condi-

Surprises All Around.
The features of the contest were so
thoroughly noted during its progress
that it is only necessary to state that
the votes cast by the friends of the
different contestants during the last
hours of the balioting contained de-
velopments as surprising to the Daily
Telegram as to any Of, the most inter-
ested in the final outcome.
The manager of the project and
those on the STAFF OF the Daily Tele-
gram knew no more than tie general
public, for everything that could be
learned was told in the daily announce
ments.
Hundreds of thousands of votes were
cast during the last hour of the con-
test, and this large vote had to be
carefully verified, and the circulation
records of the Daily Telegram had to
be carefully examined by the commit

proved ability and went about their
task of counting the votes in thor

canvass was completed and the official
announcement made in a remarkably
short time last night.

THREE CARS OF HAY BURN,
WHOLE BLOCK IS THREATENE

Fire, which destroyed three carloads
of baled hay and for a time threatened
the destruction of an entire block, orig
mated Monday night at 1880 o'clock in
the warehouse at Sixth and FL Paso.
The blaze is believed to have been
started from a lighted cigaret left in
the warehouse
Once the hay became ignited it was
impossible to extfnguish it. Flames
from the burning warehouse and its
contents shot high in the air, threat
ening the surrounding stores and
adobe shacks of Mexicans living in
that ouuarter. The work of the firemen
of the Central department kept the
blaze confined to its place of origin,
resulting in little damage being done
to the adjoining houses.

the possibilities of the gyrOseOpe as an

working upon the old style instrument
made It possible to cause the gyrOscOpe
to change its plane of rotation auto
