of membership and also for new
members if possible, is progressing
satisfactorily. Miss Jessie Graham,

Halloween Celebration" and Artil
lery. Boy Shot.

The usual halloween party celebrat-
ed on Friday night, moving gates,
tearing up side walks and playing
"Old Harry" generally.
The use of firearms was an adj
ditional source of amusement by these
rioters, number of shots being fir
ed, report says, in different sections
of the town. AS one outcome of the
nights frolic James Alexander, SON
of Mr.. and Mrs. j. Frank Alexander,
has been laid up ever since with a
bullet wound in his leg. Who fired the
shot that struck the boy no one seems
to know. These boys should have been
at home in bed, instead of prowling
around, making nuisances of them,
selves and risking their lives and
endangering the life of others As
to any investigation of the nights
rowdyism and shooting the reporter
has no information.

Maryland Election Remains in poubt.


Maryland Election Remains In Doubt.
Baltimore, Md, Nov. 1.-The re-
suit of today's election in Maryland
was in doubt at midnight. With less
than one-half of the City of Balti-
more heard from, Attorney General
Albert C. Richie, the Democratic
nominee for Governor, was leading
his Republican opponent, Henry w,
Nice, States attorney, of Baltimore,
by 1000 in Baltimore City.
Based on these figures the Demo.
Gratis were claiming that Mr.. Richie
would carry Baltimore by about l.
200
Few definite returns had been re,
ceived from the counties, however
and it seemed probable that the re
suit would not be known for some
hours.

DEFICIT HAS
INCREASED
Reduction in Freight Traffic
Charged With Response
bilities for Bad Showing.

Washington, May 6.-The govern
ment's deficit in operating the rail-
roads for the first three months this
year was about $4,000, 900 for al
rodas under federal management, di-
rector Hines disclosed today. The gov
ernment's loss for 1918 was $226, 6,00O,-
600, making a total loss incurred dur
ing the Is months of federal opera
tions Sab. 0O0, 900.
A marked reduction of freight traf-
fic under the records of similar periods
of the last two years is responsible
for the bad financial showing and
April conditions show no promise OF
Improvement.
Despite the big deficits the director
general does not contemplate any gen
eral increase in rates. The govern
ment also incurred a deficit of about
$14,50O,00 in months of operation

SENATE KILLS
Cats SCHOOL
PROBE BILL
Local Boards of Visitors
Will Not, Be Appointed
By Governor to Inspect
Institutions.
BY HERaERT EElkEL.

Tallahassee, May 6.-By a tie vote
the senate today failed to pass the
bill by Senator MacWilliams provid-
ing for the appointment by the gov
ernor of local boards of visitors to in
spect the state institutions of higher
learning under the board of control,
and the measure is dead, a majority
of ayes being necessary to pass a
bill
The measure had been amended on
second reading to eliminate the pro-
vision that members of the board OF
control might reside in the counties
in which the educational institutions
are located. Senator Cash spoke
against the bill, declaring it to be an
entering wedge for the destruction of
the colleges.
Senator Cash said a principle was
involved, that the schools to date had
been exceptionally well managed and
that the provision for keeping the col
leges free of local influence was one
Of the best features of the Buckman
bill.
Senator Mac Williams said too much
publicity was impossible in the man
agement of public affairs, and he never
had been able to understand the theory
of putting the manager of an institu-
tion as far from it as possible. The
board Of control ought to welcome
the suggestions of people who are
continuously on the ground, he said.
