ELECTIONS CLOSE.

With the Democrats and Republi-
cans both claiming the election OF
their candidates for President of the
United States and the vote in Della
ware close on some of the offices, the
people of the Diamond State are more
than interested in the official count of
the votes this year. The Chronicle
has held its forms in order that the
official count of both Kent and Sussex
Counties may be given to its readers.
As this is written full returns for all
but the Second Election District of
the Eighth Representative District,
and che First Election District of the
Tenth Representative District of Kent
County have been received by the
Chronicle In both of these there are
contests They will probably be Sc
cured before the paper is put on the
press.
In Sussex County the Judges are
counting each district as a contest is
found for that district. That neces- |
sarily has held up the securing of the |
official returns. The majority of the |
districts viii be secured before the |
paper is put on the press, however.
In Kent County the Democrats, as |
was expected. have elected their
County ticket by a good majority, but |
the Republicans gained one member
in the Levy Court The County gave
good majority for the Democratic
State ticket.
Unofficial reports from Sussex
County indicate that the entire County
ticket has been elected by the Repub-
licans; but the Democrats hope that
the official vote will show that the
County Treasurer has been elected by
them. The Levy Court Commission
ers were hard fought for, and unoffi-
cial returns indicate that Valiant and
HallOway, Democrats, and Mustard,
Republican. have been elected Sus-
sex gave good majority for the
State ticket
The State elected presidential elect
lrs for Hughes. John G. Townsend,
Republican. was elected Governor by ,
a good majority. David J. Reinhardt 4
will be the next Attorney General, and
William J Swain the next State
Treasurer. They are both Republi-
,ans. Louis +. Eliason has been
elected Lieutenant Governor; Thomas
Wilson. Insurance Commissioner. and !

AN AGED WOMAN
Tells How Vinol Made Her Strong

In her eighty-second year Mrs. John
Wiekersham, of Russellville, Pa, says:
Il was in a rundown, feeble condition
and had lost flesh. A neighbor asked
me to try Vinol, and after taking two
bottles my strength returned; 1 am
gaining in flesh, it has built up my
health and I am feeling fine for a
woman Of my age, so get around and
do my housework."
The reason Vinol was so successful
in Mrs. Wickersham's case was be-
cause it contains the very elements
needed to build her up.

He appealed to the marine division of
the police department, but was in
formed that as the seamen had struck
within the three-mile limit. their action
did not constitute mutiny. Capt. Tur-
ner then went to the British consulate,
and later returned to the Ultonia with
Vice Consul Shepard. 1t was said later
that the demands of the seamen were
granted to enable the vessel to proceed
as far as Boston. but that the crew
would be discharged there and a new
one taken aboard before the Ultonia
starts for Halifax and Liverpool
