Ohio Votes Dry
Ru The S~SocIdfeo Press

BIZ The Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 5:-Ohio
yesterday voted to remain in the dry
column by a majority which may
reach three times the size of that
which they voted prohibition a year
ago, according to incomplete and I'M
official returns received early today
at the Office of the secretary of state.
Secretary of State Smith said early
today that partial returns to his Office
from half the counSes in the state in
dicated the dry majority on all four
prohibition proposals of approximate
ly $4,000.
Yesterdays dry victory came just
q year after Ohio first voted state
wide prohibition by a majority of
$4,000 and less than six months after
prohibition became effective on May
81.
In addition to defeating the pro-
posed appeal of statewide prohibit
ton Ohio yesterday apparently voted
by a big majority to uphold the &C
ton of the legislature in ratifying the
federal prohibition amendment to
kill a proposal for the manufacture
and sale of beer containing as high
as 2.75 per cent. alcohol. and to put
into effect a Grabbed" prohibition
enforcement bill. passed by the legis-
lature last spring. All Of the prohi-
bition proposals were initiated by the
"wets."
Results I'm New York.
New York, Nov. 1.-The leadership
of Charles F. Murphy hangs in the
balance today al a result Of the sting
ing rebuke to Tammany, which was
the outstanding feature Of yester-
days election, due in part to the
Tigers turning down OF Justice New
burger.
Not only was Boss Murphy's candi-
date, the youthful Untermyer, de-
feated for Supreme Court, but he ar
ried down with him Justice Luce, also
named by Tammany for the Supreme
Court.
The vote given to Major Philip ].
McCook was undoubtedly also due in
part to his appeal to the soldier vote
and to the anger of friends of Major
Kelly, the Liberty Party candidate,
was snatched from the ticket at
the eleventh hour. and who called on
his supporters to hit the whole Tam
many ticket. After the result was
known he wired Murphy.
You took me off the ticket, but see
what I did to you"
Justice Newburger, running on the
Republican n Independent ticket
and McCook by about $4,000. The
latest figures give the vote for the
four candidates as, ~Newburger, 1872
220; McCook, 166,625; Luce, 14S,119,
and Untermeyer, 128,642.

RED CROSS FUND
BOOSTED HERE
First Large Donations Are Re-
CeiVed by Workers .

Although yesterday vas election
gay and a holiday, the Third Red
cross Roll Call campaign now under
way in this city, showed considerable
gam when the results of the member
snip and donations for the day were
IaIlied up this morning. One Of the
FEATURES of the day was the
ment from the Fords Porcelain Works
that the employees of their plant had
all taken out memberships in the To-
cal chapter. This is the first manu-
featuring plant to report a 100 per
cent membership.
Although yesterday was tag day in
the city, and many of the girls were
ON duty tagging automobiles. no re-
port has been received from this
branch of the work up to noon today
at the headquarters. In view Of the
fact that many automo biles are seen
in the city with Red Cross tags past
ed to the wind shield it would lead one
to think that considerable business
had been done by the workers. The
real tag day will be held on Saturday
at which time girls will be stationed
at all important corners selling the
tags. The police department will aid
the girls in this work.

RY VII STORY LADY.

Aunt Phoebe didn't ave to wait
long for a talk with Mr.. Ramsey. The
very next day his big red car drove up
in front of her house and Mr.. RAM
sey got out and came to the house.
He was a very different old gentle
man from the one Peter found sitting
on the porch trying to decide who to
give his money to when he died
However, he looked very worried
when Aunt Phoebe came into the
room, and told her at once what he
had come for.
81 wouldn't bother you, Mrs. Hen
Shave, but hat chap of mine seems
to have taken such a fancy to you. l
might be a pretty good father but I'm
no good as a mother. l guess l was
an old fool to adopt two kids at my
age. You see it's this way. Somehow
or other one of the vases in my col
lection was smashed. Now / don't
care a rap about the vase. but 1 can't
stand a dishonest person. Jim de-
clares he didn't do it and the cook
says he did, that she saw him. This
morning some one took a twenty dol
lar bill off of the table where l had
put 1t for my ervant.
ut would almost kill me to think
that he would do such a thing, for /
really love the boy. But what am l
to think when things like this never
happened before?"

Peter
Anothe, Short Story

Have you had all your servants a
long time, Mr.. Ramsey?"
"All but the cook. My old cook
died Just before 1 came here and this
one has been with me about six
months. That reminds me of what
1 found on the arm of my porch
chair, this morning"
Aunt Phoebe took the scrap of pa
per and read, "Bewair the cooke"
ut would be my guess that this is
the work Of Peter Palmer. The lit
tie rascal! I told him to keep his
fingers out of this pie. You see. Mr..
Ramsey, the boys told me how miser-
able Jim a been lately. He told
them about the vase and, though 1
don't as a rule believe in repeating
children's tales, he says hat he saw
the cook break the vase. He also says
that she dislikes having the children
there very much and hat she abuses
little Gertrude when no one is around
1 believe if you will keep your ears
open you will find that most of your
trouble is right there. AS far as l
am concerned 1 don't believe that Jim
Ramsey would steal a pin or tell a
story either"
Aunt Phoebe went out or the porch
with the old man who shook hands
with her M thanked her owe and
over again. Just as the car drove out
of sight Peters red head popped out
from the porch post.
