turned over the government to him.

News Of Especial Interest to
Minnesota Readers.
RlNEs GAINS EIGHTY FOUR
Six Counties Out Of Eishty-six Com
pIeted on Revision Of Ballots
on Authorship.

With six of the eighty-six counties
of Minnesota recounted on the Repub
lican vote for state auditor the lead
of J. A. o. Preus over Henry Rines
has been reduced from 1857 to GIL.
The recount is now going on in Ram
sey county and Hennepin will come
next. There has been gain for
Rines in each county recounted so far
as follows:
St. Louis &c, Pine 4, Kanabeo 2,
Mile Laos Is, Sherburne 26, Anoka IA.
In addition there are fifty ballots
in dispute, marked as exhibits. Out
of these ballots Rines claims a gain
of ten for him
In st. Louis county the recount of
ballots gave Rines gain of ninety
three, but two mistakes of the county
canvassing board, both of them
against Preus, were discovered, Civ
ing Preus gain of sixty-eight Many
votes were added to all the candidates
by the recount. The failure of cleo
ton clerks to count votes marked in
the second choice column was respon-
sible for this. First choice votes
gained in st. Louis county by the re-
count were: Block ESQ, Preus 312,
Rines 1913. The second choice vote
was doubled, because most of the
election judges failed to make an in
teIlig1ble return The Preus second
choice vote in the county was in
creased from 14S to 345 and the Rines
vote from 1876 to 4O7.
Messrs. Preus and Rines personally
are watching the recount and have
dispensed with attorneys for the most
part.

Cracked Furniture.

Ugly marks caused by splits or
cracked places in furniture are easily
filled in with beeswax, and the mark
is never detected. In fact, this is how
furniture dealers cover such blemishes:
First slightly soften the beeswax until
it is like putty, then press firmly into
the cracks and smooth evenly with
thin knife. Sandpaper over the sur
rounding wood and work the dust into
i the beeswax This gives wood fin
ish or color, and when the furniture is
vanished you will look in vain for
the blemishes. 1t is better than putty,
since putty soon dries. crumhles and
falls out, while beeswax will remain
forever just where it is placed.
