RELIEVED THE CONGESTION.

The excursion over the l.. q N
from this city to Frankfort Saturday
was by long odds the largest week
day crowd that has left this city since
the Sunday school excursion to Gin
cinnat several years ago. 1t simply
got Agent Ellis goat, so to speak But
he was equal to the emergency. He
had ordered two extra cars for this
train, but the crowd could have filled
five easily. and Saturday morning he
ordered three more coaches to be sent
on the northbound train, and when il
met the excursion train these cars
we're transferred to it, thus relieving
the congestion. And then there was
room for one more passenger.

German vote. And how is the German

One can feel 1t in the air all through
this region. From Milwaukee down
through Chicago to this town q portion Of

How much? That is the question. And
who can answer 1t when dealing with
a temperamental race?
The Germans in the west are as high
strung as a guitar string. Col. Roose-
cordant note. Nobody knows how the
state is going. They will tell~you here
that the republican candidate for gov
ernor will win, that Wilson will get the
electoral vote and that Senator Reed is
afraid for his life that Mr.. Dickey will
beat him. But Senator Stone and Speak

According to news received in Lon

the Austro-Germans have made prog

Germans have reached Agas, ten miles
