RESULTS OF ELECTION HELD
THROUGHOUT STATE OF
WISCONSIN.
MILWAUKEE MAYOR is SOCIALIST
Daniel w. Hoan Defeats Mayor Bad.
ing, Non-partisan Candidate, by
Narrow Margin-Other Off
cials Elected Are Non
Partisans.

Milwaukee - Daniel W. Hoan, So
cialist city attorney, has been elected
mayor of Milwaukee, defeating G. A.
Bading, non-partisan candidate for re-
election, by a probable majority of
1900. Unofficial returns from 128 out
of LAB precincts gave Hoan 30,1S7
votes and Bading 29,O30. John l.
Drew. non-partisan, defeats Charles B.
Whitnall, socialist, for city treasurer,
and Louis M. Kotecki has been re-
elected comptroller over Leo Kryzcki,
socialist. The majorities of Drew and
Kotecki will be between 5000 and
$500. Mayor Bading carried eleven
wards out of twenty-five and Drew and
Kotecki each carried fourteen wards.
Contests for aldermen-at-large are
very close, but it is probable that five
and possibly six of the non-partisan
candidates are winners. 1t seems
certain that the city council will be
non-partisan in voting strength. Judge
A. G. Hedding has been reelected
civil court judge, defeating George
Mensing, socialist candidate.
judge E. b. Belden of Racine is
leading in the state by 2,225 votes in
the contest for supreme court justice
according to returns from thirty-five
places outside of Milwaukee. His
closest opponent is Judge Fowler of
FOND du Lac. The same scattering re-
turns indicate that majority of the
Philipp delegates to the national re-
publican convention have also been
elected. The ticket of four delegates
atlarge, headed by Gov. Philipp seems
to be elected without question.

EYES OF The WORLD
FILM MASTERPIECE
HERE SOON

To the credit of w. H. Clune, who
was associated in the production of
"Jhe Clansman" T"The Birth of a
Nation'), ana was sole producer Uf
the beautiful Ramona now stands
third great cinema Achievement,
The Eyes of the World" This will
he put on view within fortnight
& grivilege given this community be-
fore any of the large cities are per-
Lifted to see it. Originally sched-
uled to have its premiere at the big
auditorium theatre in Los Angeles,
conflict of dates there has resulted
n its first exhibition in this city.
Clunes latest multiple-reel fea-
ture is the fruitage of six months Of
jndivided energies of the Clune
forces at the big studios in Los An
gees and on the actual scenes of
Harold Bell Wright's famous story in
Riverside and San Bernardino coun-
ties. A fortune in money was also
involved in the undertaking. The not
e author greatly enlarged the scope
Of his stirring romance for this pro-
duction and personally assisted in the
work of putting his characters on the
screen.
"The Eyes of the World" is in ten
sections and consumes an entire after
noon or evening in its exhibition
Readers of the book, which has had a
sale of nearly million copies-more
than any other work of American fic-
tion-will recall many episodes in it
which supply thrilling material for
a great motion picture. Of almost
equal Importance with the pictorial
translation is the splendid musical
score with which "The Eyes of the
World" will be embellished. This score
vas composed and arranged by j. c.
Nurnberger, musician Of lnterna-
tional note who has conducted orches-
t1as in London and Vienna and was
AN associate in the latter city Of the
great Johann Strauss, the "waltz
king"
The photography of the new pro-
duction is said to be as brilliant as
that of Ramona" 1t was done by
the same skilled hands which were
responsible for the superior beauty

German Consul General and Aides to
Trial IN Bomb Case.
(By United Press)

San Francisco, Nov. 16.-Trial of
members Of the German consular
corps and others on charge of violat-
ing American neutrality is to begin
today in the federal district court.
Charges of dynamiting a barge load
ed with Russian munitions, and OF
sending supplies from here to a Ger
man squadron are made against these
defendants: Franz Bopp, German
consul general; Baron E. H. Won
Shack, vice consul; Baron Wilhelm
Won Brincken, German military at
tuche; Charles c. Crowley, German
consulate secret service man; Mar
garet w. Cornell, Crowneys secre-
tary, and a number of business men.
The dynamiting of the munitions
occurred in May, 1915, as the barge
was being prepared to lighter the
munitions for shipment to Vladivos-
tok.. The government contends that
the explosion was caused by bomb
planted at the instance of the de-
PENDANTS. The defendants deny guilt.
The second charge, which has been
combined with the first, is that the
German consulate officials, with To-
cal business men, sent the steamer
Sacramento to sea with cargo of
coal for the vessels of Admiral Won
Specs squadron, later destroyed in
the Falkland Islands battle. The
Sacramento afterward interned in a
South American harbor.
Strenuous objection was made by
the defense to the combining of the
-wo cases. 1t was contended that the
charges are vastly different, and that
by combining them the work Of Sc
curing a fair jury is rendered vastly
r ore difficult, owing to increased oc-
casion for supposed prejudice against
Germans.

BARNES CIRCUS IS
HERE ON SATURDAY

Most persons think of the circus
as a huge amusement plant designed
solely to make little boys and girls
forget school and study, and grown
folks to forget business and worry.
1t remained for the Al G. Barnes
Big Four Ring Wild Animal Circus
to place itself in the ranks of edu-
cotional institutions as well as amuse-
ment plants.
81 consider it( the Barnes Circus)
highly educational, and your system
a step forward in the care Of
women and children" says Superin-
tcndent ]. H. Francis, formerly of
the Los Angeles schools, and next
to Ella Flagg Young of Chicago the
best known educator in this country,
Ii a personal letter to AL G. Barnes.
The value of perseverance, patience,
kindness and study Of animal nature
lis demonstrated in the remarkable
acts of the wild and domestic animals
ir the Barnes ensemble of more than
1000 brute actors.
The modern equipment, electric
lights and fans, the highly specialized
Iconveniences of this huge circus, make
i. place of comfort. The remark
able training of the animals shows
how highly the animal mind may be
cultured.
A circus with all the circus thrills
and features, yet one which is wholly
different, it might be classed as
continuous program of surprises, each
one composed of thrill or laugh,
or both, and each teaching lesson
llcng remembered because of being
driven home by being made an amuse-
n,ent or diversion.

A mile-long parade with six bonds
and four callopes as musical features
will take place at 1890 in the morn
ing. Doors open at / and 7 o'clock.
