MESSAGES DELAYED
BY NORTHERN LIGHTS
Wire Communication. in Northern
q. S. and Canada Held Up Two
Hours by Aurora Borealis.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August 9.-The aurora
borealis. or northern light, interrupt
ed wire communication over the north
ern half of the United States, and all
of Canada from the Rocky mountains
to the Atlantic ocean, and even was
felt in southern latitudes last night
and for several hours early today.
The phenomenon became visible and
began to affect telegraph and telephone
wires shortly before midnight last
night and for several hours before
daylight this morning many trunk line
circuits were useless most of the time.
The display of the aurora in Colorado
was described as particularly brill
liant many persons believing the
blood-red appearance of the northern
sky was caused by forest fires. A dis
patch from Denver quoted Prof. H. A.
Howe of the department of astronomy
of Denver University as saying that
such a display had never been observed
before in Colorado. to his knowledge.
Reports to telegraph companies here
state that the earth currents did not
attract wires south of st. Louis in the
west. but in the east circuits as far
south as Atlanta, Ga, were disturbed.
Telegraph officials said the disturb
ance was more widespread than for
many years, the phenomenon usually
being confined to northern ATTITUDES.

1t was literally a fight of brother

two OF his brothers fatally shot by his

But the ties of race were stronger
than flags. In one fight A machine gun

Southern Slavs Give Up.
There was much surprise year ago
at the reports Of great numbers OF
prisoners taken by Brussiloff. and it is
said this is largely accounted for by
the great numbers Of southern Slavs.
who. forced to fight in the Austrian
ranks. voluntarily gave themselves UP
as prisoners when they met their Slav
brothers from the north.
These two Serbian divisions, made up
of Slav prisoners from the Austrian
ranks. have been placed under the

fender OF Belgrade. with headquarters
at Saioniki. Recently thousand of

on some of the ballots are easily ac- counted for by the fact that number of voters did not know how to mark their ballots, and after marking them wrong requested instructions from the election judges, which resulted in the voter erasing some of the marks made entering new ones.
 One man, according to the election officials, said he wanted to vote for Campbell for governor and Wheeler for Sheriff, and did so by putting a cross at the top of both the Republi- can and Democratic columns, thus voting both tickets straight. When he showed the ballot to them they ex- 1 plained what he had done and he made erasures and alterations on the ballot.
 Similar mistakes, many of them much worse, were made repeatedly by voters, who after marking their bal lots would ask if they were all right. i As it was illegal to give voter g new ballot the mismarked ballots had to be altered. Lots of men voted straight socialist ticket and also vot ed for Hunt, resulting in changes il discovered before the ballot was cast. All mismarked ballots which were
 cast without the voter asking for in

Foote managed to give the fellow a good beating. Later John Olney is alleged to have made some uncomplimentary remarks, directed at Foote, and is also said to have threatened him. A con- plaint was issued against both young men and they were brought before Justice Reid. Both pleaded guilty to the charges against them, "Curley be ing fined $15 and Olney $30.

 MT. Hart went before notary pub lie yesterday afternoon and made af- fidavit to the facts recited above wishing to remove any reflections that the charges made at Phoenix may have cast on the integrity of the cleo tion officials of the first ward. They of course, had nothing to do with the ballots after they left Douglas, but are positive every thing was regular up to that time.

THE BAPTIST CHURCH

Notwithstanding the rain last Sun day the attendance at church was
 good. A fair day should bring out many churchgoers next Sunday. Be sure that you favor us with your pres ence-plan now to that end. If churches are good thing why not you be a church goer? If churches are a menace to our community, lets get rid of them. If they are not lets boost the church business along with other interests. You are a good booster for business, for our community, for every good cause affecting the interests of humanity, why not boost the church? ?
 An old Roman poet once said: ''The most of our sorrows com from for
 getfulness of God" The man who does not attend church is apt to forget God. Morning worship at II o'clock. Evening worship at 7:30. We should be glad to have you worship with us John w. Epperly, Pastor.

DENIES BALLOTS TEMPERED
 WITH
Erasures Were Found on Tickets. City Offers Explanation of Why Trasures Were Found on Tickets.

Douglas, Jan. 12-An emphatic denial that there were any irregu- larities about any of the ballots count ed in the first ward at the recent cleo tion was made this morning by Hal H. Hart and other men, both Demo. crats and Republicans, who served as election officials in that ward. The statement came as the result of charges made in Phoenix last week that 53 ballots in the first ward in this city bore evidence of having been tempered with.
 MT. Hart says the ensures visible
