oontradicts the assumption that

Let us see. The total vote cast,

this vote Mayor Wheeler received L.

bound to be some variation, and in
such a a S as this a very slight
variation determines the result.
A little exercise with a pencil will
show how nearly alike the two sets
of votes are. OF the mems votes the
mayo received 4s.s per cent. and Of
the women's 52.3 per cent. Mr..
O'Keefe received 5o.7 per cent Of the
mems votes and AT per cent Of the
women's votes. That is about as close
as the votes of any two groups could
be expected to nm.
This result ta11ics with the results

BLOCK ESCAPE OF
SEVEN PRISONERS

\ While Sheriff J. w. Stevens and his
deputy of Portage county, were con.
veying seven prisoners to the State
refor7natory at Mansfield, Tuesday
morning, in an automobile, the sheriff
was assaulted in an attempt by the
prisoners to escape.
The rtouble occurred on the road
between Leroy and Lodi. Near. the
latter village three of the prisoners,
who were handcutfed together in the
rear seat, attacked the sheriff and
struck him violently with weapon on
the head, cutting cash and momen-
tarily stunning him. The deputy,who
was driving the automobile, ran the
machine into the ditch. The prison
ers jumped out and started to run
away when the machine stopped.
The prisoners attempted to seize
Sheriff Stevens gun, but before they
could do SO the deputy gained possess
sion OF it and rounded up the men. In
the melee, it was reported, one of the
prisoners was shot through the hand.
Sheriff Stevens obtained a clothes
line from farmhouse and bound the
seven men in the back seat, where they
remained until safely landed in the
state institution at Mansfield.
