D e ocratic Congress
man, Candidate for Re-
election, Enters Campaign
at Rally Tonight.

WILMINGTON, Del, oct. 28-with =
reception in the headquarters of the
Democratic League, Democrats will to-
night begin a campaign which is expected
to cover every section Of the state in
the hope Of rallying voters to the support
Of the ticket.
Democrats declare they have been ham
dicapped because Congressman Franklin
Brockson has been forced TO remain in
Washington and could not follow the
vhlrlwind campaign which Secretary Of
opponent, is now waging.
Congressman Broclson is now expected
TO begin speechmakng tour.
Democrats generally are combining them
selves TO lauding the Democratic national
Administration and in blaming the pros-
ent hard times which exist in Whining
ton on the war and the refusal of the
Interstate Commerce Commission 10 allow
the railroads to raise their rates on the

NEW BALLOT Law EFFECTIVE.
Both parties arc now busy endeavoring
to familiarize voters with the new ballot
law of this state. Under the old law
Il was necessary for a man to secure his
ballot at polling place and then go into
the voting booth and fix it at once. Now
he may obtain It from other sources ic
mark it at home If he so desires and
then take II to the polling place and place
It in the envelope which is given him
there
Republicans and Democrats, alike, were
in favor of the enactment of the law. and
United States Senator Willard Salisbury
was particularly interested in it, while
the Republican leaders agreed to 1t. It
is claimed that it opens a big opportunity
for fraud after the matter of vote buying
had been stopped in this state. The new
plan will be used for the first time in the
coming election.
Those in favor OF the law declare that
It is nc more conducive to vote buying
and selling than the old plan, for while
a man pight be bought to vote certain
ballot and the ballot be marked for him,
there is no guarantee he Will cast that
ballot when ne goes TO the polling place.

COST OF FLOWERS
NOT TO RISE WITH
OTHER LUXURIES
Prices Won't Be Affected by
War or Weather, Say
Dealers - Better Blooms
Than Last Year.

Prices of cut flowers will not be af
fected by the war. the weather or any
other unfortunate circumstance. They
of a far better quality.
AS nearly everything else that Is in
demand has risen in price, it was rumored
that the cost of flowers would also in
crease. However, Europe is making no
demand for flowers. She is spending her
money on -four and meats.
Charles Henry Fox, a Broad street
florist was inclined to be a bit pessi-
mistic regarding the floral situation
There was no telling when frost would
come. Chrysanthemums will cost the
man who can't watch a football game
without a fair lady at his side to heed
his criticisms OF the plays from $3.50 to
"a dozen.
Dahlias. another popular fall flower suf-
fered little from the lack of rain. They
will retail at % cents to 81 a dozen.
Bulbs most OF them from Holland, have

fully supplied with them.
H. H. Battles, 18th street florist, says
that flowers will be plentiful and cheap
this year. The Hadley vases will range
from 81 to S a dozen American Beauties
hold their own as being the most popular.
They retail from s. dozen to $50.
There is new arrival In town in the

imported from Ireland. 1t has deli
cate tint, is fragile and has only five
petals. Its popularity has not yet been
given an opportunity TO be tested
Louis Gold, who sells flowers from
baskets on Market street, of a Saturday
night is sure the war won't affect his
business. The weather does, Louis buys
his stock from a refrigerator They come

GIRL STRANGLED AND LEFT
IN DESERTED PARK VAULT
Fifteen-year-old Victim of Murderer
Missing Since August.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. oct. 26.-With
scarcely any clues to aid them. detectives
today are attempting to discover the
identity of the slayer OF pretty 15-year-
old Hazel Macklin, victim of one of the
most brutal murders in the history OF
northern Indiana.
The body of the girl. who disappeared
August 10. was found in a vault at Is
land Park. picnic resort one mile from
the city. late yesterday. She had been
strangled with a piece OF her undercloth-
ing which was knotted about her throat.
Her clothing had been partly torn from
her body and several scratches and scars
showed she had fought desperately.
The Macklin girl was a favorite among
other high school students and at the
Sunday school of the Westminster Pres
by-terian Church. For several years she
had lived with her uncle being an orphan.
Early in August she asked permission
10 so TO work The NTilers inserted an
advertisement In a newspaper for posi-
tion for her as nurse or maid for a
farmers wife. A man, who said he was
a farmer living between So1th Bend
and Mishawaka. answered the ad by
telephone. He directed that Miss Macklin
meet him that evening at Springbrook
Park. she has not been seen since.

MUST WEAR TIGHTS
AND CATCH COLD?"
''NEVER!" SAY GIRLS
mot Only Will Rheumatism
Stifen Us, But Think of
What Mamma and Dad
dy' Will Say"

Seventy pretty chorus girls OF 1.-THE
Passing Show of 1911" company who were
censured by a police lieutenant for APP
pearing on the stage without proper
drapery and tights yesterday left for Bos.
ton.
The door of a parlor car attached to
the New York express opened just as
the train pulled out of Broad Street Sta
ton and before reporter stood Miss
Mary Grey and Miss Mabel Barry. all
members of the chorus.
1t seemed that only the Misses Barry,
Hunt, Mitchell and Grey were in a talka-
tive mood. The remaining members of
the company, including Miss Murlel Win
dow, one of the stars, were scattered in
the other Pulmans.
The dancers who. according to Police
Lieutenant Smiley, OF the 1lth and Win
ter streets station, not only shocked him,
but also his subordinates said they were
afraid to open letters from home.
These stories in the newspapers about
the police getting after us will surely

said Miss Hunt, who has a wealth of
light yellow hair and blazing blue eyes.
II wonder what daddy will say when
he reads all those Stories" interrupted
Miss Barry, who stood near the platform
The consensus of opinion among the
members of the company, from the star
down to the stage carpenter, was that
Lieutenant Smiley doesn't understand
anything about musical comedies.
COMsTOcK DIDN'T OBJECT.
Members OF the Passing Show" cast
say a Philadelphia police official is the
first person to find fault with their dane
ing or the manner in which they appear
on the stage before the audience.
Anthony Comstock sat in a box and
saw US play in the same costumes at the
Winter Garden. and never objected" de-
clared Miss Grey.
The gates were being closed by the
ticket takers, so the dancers proceeded
to tell quickly why the Passing Show
of 1917 can be played better without
tights.
I'VE do considerable dancing" said
Miss Grey. Should we get into draught
We easily catch cold. Since we were COM
pelled to put on tights by the police many
or the girls have contracted rheumatism.
The lieutenant wasn't fair We were

cause all sorts of gossip"

shouted IAN aboard" The chorus girls

"BILLY" SUNDAY WORKERS
SPOKE TO 100000 HERE
Leave on Two Special Trains for
Wilkes-Barre and Scranton.


After telling of the effects of the
BILLY" Sunday campaigns in Wilkes
Barre and Scranton in more than 400
churches of this city and I'm the suburbs
from Paoli to Bridesburg and from
Doylestown to Woodbury., N. j., most Of
the army of "trail-hitters" left early this
morning for their homes on two special
trains.
1t is estimated that more than 900
persons heard the "trail-hitters" speak
during their stay in this city and vicinity.
Besides the addresses in nearly 500
churches in the morning and evening,
the lay preachers addressed rs mass
meetings in different sections OF the city
in the afternoon Among the largest Of
these were the meetings in the different
branches of the Young Mems Christian
Association. At these services and all
the others special programs of music were
given and the BILLY" Sunday revival
hymns were sung.
Among those who spoke were bankers,
business men. coal miners, railroaders.
former bartenders, former saloonkeepers
men from every walk of life who had
started to live the new life after they
had been persuaded to follow the saw
dust trails in the Sunday tabernacles.
Practically all of them hit the saloon
hard blows, saying that it had been their
changing OUT place before their con-
version. and declaring that it had been
"the greatest power of the devil in their
communities before Sunday went there.
Now, they said, the saloon business in
Wilkes-B Barre and Scranton was fast wan
ing, and the people generally were for
local option.
A party of about 200 of the trail hit
ters" who remained over night in Phila-
delphia. sang revival hymns on the City
Hall plaza and in the Wanamaker Store
this morning just before they boarded
trains for home.
