Unpledged Delegates Win
Over Roosevelt Candidates
BY Atsocinted Press

Trenton, N. j.. April 26.-Later re-
turns from New Jerseys presidential
primary election yesterday show that
the unpledged national delegates on
the. Republican ticket were successful
over those favorable to Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt as presidential nomi-
nee. There were contests in three of
the twelve congressional districts. The
delegates on the Democratic ticket are
all favorable to the denomination of
President Wilson.
Under a ruling of the Attorney Gen
eral. the Republican ballots did not
contain the choice for President"
column. Voters, however, in many
districts expressed a preference for a
presidential candidate. The expression
of opinion as to a Republican presi-
dental candidate was so limited and
meager as to be almost negligible as q
guide. In Trenton, for instance.
Roosevelt received 40 votes and Jus
tice Charles e. Hughes 80 out of 2 ,164
votes cast. In the county of Mercer
including Trenton. Hughes received so
votes and Roosevelt SIS.

is simply because they are born so.
A mans nervous organization is so
much less sensitive than a woman's S
that he cannot understand why his
wife is wounded by his inability to
see all sides of a question at once.
At least. that is the way he defines
his critical faculty.
So Horace Webb had no idea how
much his lack of enthusiasm, his
small criticisms, had done to mar
his wife's innocent joy in her good for
tune.
Grace's information with regard to
the missing dessert interrupted the
conversation between husband and
wife, and perhaps it was just as well
that it did. Horace Webb was not in
q happy mood, and when he had what
Grace secretly called 'one of his fits
of doldrums' it was not easy to arouse
him to pleasure in anything.
Myra's communication had come at
an unfortunate time, she reflected.
But she had no chance just now TO
muse on this fact, as she must turn
her thoughts toward the dessert she
had forgotten to order. What a bung-
Ter she was anyway!
Il will slip on my things and run
Dut to the bakeshop for some parts"
she said, starting toward her dress
closet.
"Nonsense!" Grace exclaimed. I'VE
can get out without dessert, if we have
coup, meat and vegetables"
But we are not having soup to-
night" Myra informed her.

He went into the bathroom to wash
for dinner, and Myra stood still for
some minutes after he had gone. She
must fight back the tears that threat
ened to overflow her eyes; she must
uuiet the trembling of her lips before
she went into the dining room.
Why need Horace say that she was
always considering Grace? He did
not seem to realize that she was al
ways trying to consider him, as well.
Trouble and anxiety had made him
bitter perhaps. Then it was the wife's
duty to try to sweeten his heart. She
must do better hereafter.
She turned impulsively as he re-
entered the room, and going up to
him, raised her face for kiss

five years from stomach complaint,

Ohio Elects Organization
Candidates For Delegates

By Associated Press

Columbus, Ohio. April 26.-Returns
received to-day from the larger cities
of Ohio made certain the election of
the organization candidates for dele
gates at large to both the Republican
and Democratic national conventions
at yesterdays presidential preference
primaries.
Theodore r. Burton, of Ohio, re-
ceived the Republican vote on the
presidential preference ballots, while
President Wilson. without opposition
on the printed ballots, was designated
as the popular choice of the Demo-
Gratis. William Grant Webster, Chi
cago, attorney, whose name had been
entered inadvertently as a candidate
for President on the Republican bal
lot. instead of Vice. President, received
less than 10 per cent. of his party's
vote.
A few voters wrote the names of
their favorites on the ballots. The
number of those who did this was
small and is considered of little sig
nifcance. The name of Henry Ford
leads those written on. Both Repub-
Iicans and Democrats wrote in his
name. Theodore Roosevelt and Charles
e. Hughes followed Mr.. Ford in order.
