CAMBRIDGE, Mass. April 9.-The
classic and vibrating voice of William
Jennings Bryan, Secretary of State,
was used to dance by at a party given
by Harvard men at a Back Bay hotel
in Boston recently. Although Mr.
Bryan doesn't deliver his canned"
addresses IN as syncopated manner as
might be wished by the dancers, he
served temporarily as an orchestra

The dancing party was in a private
ball room and a photograph was
brought in to supply the music. 1t

Rather than delay the dancing until

students put on the Bryan disc. and

climax, where the Secretary of State

voice arose to lofty heights, the dane

Everything is lovely,

Every days as pleasant

You're in joval mood,

Everything is Skewhawed,
Good friends pass you by,

Is Man Alleged TO Have Died In Furnace
still AIive2 Jury Problem.

still Nive2 Jury Problem.
BUFFALO, N Y, April 9.-The
Wickwire Steel Company in answer
ing the suit of Mrs. Susan Har-
greaves in supreme court here, for
the alleged death of her son, who
she claims was burned to death in a
huge furnace after being shut in
when he entered to make some ad-
iustments, claims there is no evidence
to show that the man is dead as his
body has never been seen.
The steel company took this I'M
usual stand after Mrs. Hargraves
made the claim that her sons body
was entirely consumed in the fur
mace. The mothers contention Is
that her son was sent into the fur
mace and while inside someone closed
the door and shut off the air and
he was burned alive. The question
which now confronts the jury is
whether Hargraves Is alive or dead.

voting machine refusing to register

night formally declared Attorney
Joseph II. Lawler, Democrat, elected
by 1856 to 1900 over his Republican
opponent, Mayor Louis r. Cheney.
The latter, against his wishes. is
being kept in Office by the Republi-

ton to GUST him.
A ballty machine in the Fourth
ward registered 1872 votes for Lawler.
but about 312 for his colleagues, and
the missing 100 votes We're not ac-
credited to any other candidate. A
mechanic tested the levers and found
that the disks remained stuck at 1872.
Another thorough testing showed the
machine officially out of order.
