HUGHES SMILES While
DEFEAT Seems CERTAIN
BY CARL D. eRoAT

NEW YORK, Nov 10-Charles T..
Hughes took latest returns today with
l-cOmplete outward calmness. despite
the terrific strain since Tuesday He
slept late. At $50 he had not order
ed breakfast sent to his private din
ingroom a the Hotel Aston. When
he appeared later he was smiling and
exchanged pleasantries in his old way
with personal and political friends
who called.
The governor, however. plainly
showed the effects of the conflicting
emotions of the past four days. This
and lack of sufficient sleep, together
with the most strenuous campaign
ever made by a Presidential candi-
date, had slightly drawn his features,
and his step had not the swing in il
that it had when he started out last
July on his 34-000mile campaign tour
Early this afternoon. Hughes had
sent no messages of cOngratulation
to President Wilson This was taken
in some quarters as indicating that
he aud Chairman Wilcox, together
with one or two others. may delay
this usual exchange until the official
count is complete in all close States
Wilcox and Hughes have not YET
conceded defeat. Another factor in
this connection is exactly what action
the Republican National Committee
intends taking in regard to proposed
recounts.
Hughes attended the theatre last
night with Mrs. Hughes and a party of
friends TO see William Collier in "NOth-
ing But the TRUTH Mrs. Hughes ap-
parently forgot all about the election in
her interes. in the show, but she showed
plainly the effects of the strain.
Governor and Mrs. Hughes walked the
two or three blocks TO and from the
theatre. Few recognized them ON the
streets, but they were accorded an ex-
plosive ovation in the building.

AT THE GARRICK

George Auger's act, at the Garrick
Theatre this week, is very clever
Anger is a giant, standing nine feet
in his stockings. and he is surrounded
by a company Of ordinary size peo-
pie, who look small alongside of him.
His act is q musical comedy and a
very clever one at that. Some OF
the characters assume the roles of
royalty, and the whole affair would
remind one Of visit TO fairyland,
where the people are different from
what we know. The act is deliberately
staged and the costumes are magniti-

CONCORD. \. H.. Nov. l0.-Although
figures as so far determined continued
to back up the Republican committees
claim that Hughes would win New
Hampshire, the re-checking of Tuesday s

to put New Hampshire in the Wilson

New Hampshire is still held in the
doubtful list and both State committees
are steadfast in their claims of victory.
The Republicans claim the state by a
plurality OF 100 or a little more and the
Democrats forecast the final count will
be at least 81 in their favor.
Deputy Secretary Of state Plllsbury,
who is in charge of the checking of the

BY HELEN ROWLANDI


Better half"-The half that Is better

A man loves woman according to
the effort II cost him to get her: a wom-
an loves a man according to the EFFORT II
costs her to hold him.
Love is that strange mental condition
which makes a woman prefer one mans
yawns to another mans fiattery.
Many a man ties himself to one wom-
an in order to disentangle himself from
a lot OF others. and then gets entangled
with lot OF others just in order to for
get he Is tied to one.
When the woman Is too wise to talk
at breakfast. and the man Is too tired
to talk at dinner, II is not a sign that
they are unhappy; II Is merely sign
that they are quite married.
