Women Will Surprise
Tammany Men.
CALDER EARLY IN LINE
Copeland Brings Along Cook
Depew Votes on Anniver-
sary of Greeley Race.

Features Of unusual interest marked
the voting of the principal candidates
and other notables. ZAP Smith, Mrs.
"Al" and "Al," Jr, cast ballots while
the cameras clicked at 10 A. M. In
Public School J., Henry and Oliver
streets, and there was much joshing
and jollying as the confident ex-Gov-
ernor quoted Beef AnP Dolans his
tcric quip, There amt no question
about it," But the sentimental inter-
est attached to the suffrage OF the
Smith family had to do with Mother
Smiths vote more than with the vote
OF her son.
Mrs. Catherine Smith, 70 years old
last Friday, cast her ballot yesterday
afternoon at Public School 8. HICKS
and Middagh streets, Brooklyn, not
far from her home. 1t was her first
vote, too, and when she appeared at
the polling place a pretty big crowd
saluted "ATs" mother with rousing
cheers. This pleased her and ied her
10 saw in a quaint way, "Well, it seems
to me that things look very promising
for my boy"
The Ex-Governor followed his wife
who had ballot 233, while "Al, Jr.'
marking his first ticket. dropped ballot
2s5 into the box. There were 800 persons
or so about the polling place TO raise
merry to do and to watch the Smith
family get their pictures taken ffteen
or twenty times. After voting "Al' saw
Mrs. Smith home to oliver street,
dropped in at the Downtown Tammany
Club at 50 Madison street TO say hello
to Tom Foley and then went over TO
the Brooklyn Hospital to pay visit TO
Stuart Crawford, reporter for The
New YORK HERALD. who reported his
upstate campaign and who iss i'll OF
pneumonia. Then the Ex-Governor went
to lunch at his mothers house at .
Middagh street, Brooklyn and in the
late afternoon headed for his head
quarters at the Hotel Biltmore to get
the earliest news.
Miller and Calder.
Syracuse Is q long way from New
York, but to keep Gov. Miller in the
picture II may be said that he voted at
IL A. M. in the Fifth Ward up there and
displayed the most impressive con-
fidence of victory. saying that the up
state Republican vote was going TO
amaze the Tammany shouters. and that
the women were going to support him.
Senator William NJ Calder voted at
s:45 A. NJ. walking from his home at
551 First street. Brooklyn, TO the polling
place at 169 Seventh avenue and casting
Ballot 146. He thought that talk of a
Democratic landslide was nonsense and
that he would win by substantial
majority. DIR. Copeland, Democratic can
didate for Senator, took not only Mrs.
Copeland but the Copeland cook, Norah
Moran, when he went to vote at IL
o'clock in a basement shop at AZ West
Sixty-sixth street. The Copelands voted
ballots 100 and 11o, Mrs. Copeland first,
and then Norah dropped III into the little
box. 1t was Or. Copeiand's nfty-fourth
birthday. He made a few remarks about
a certain Democratic victory because Of
widespread protest over 'heartless gov

the Murray Hill Hotel.
There is never lack OF interest when

Presidential elections and goodness
knows how many more minor contests.
Fifty-fifth street, TO mark a straight Re-

Chauncey, Jr., and with his niece, Anna

ticket.
The Mayor Votes.

Mayor beamed on the populace and ex-
pressed the belief that the corporations
were about TO get terrible slam from
the common people. IL is understood that
the Mayor voted for Smith. John III.
McCooey, Tammany leader OF Brooklyn,

casting ballot ] one minute after the
polls opened at 6. Police Commissioner
Enright was fairly early az . over in

Special interest attached to the vote
OF John ID. Rockefeller. Jr.. because ne
had been refused permission to vote by
mail and had come all the way from
Battle Creek. Mich. TO get in one more
vote for Miller. He voted with his wife
and when the photographers got busy he
warned theu not to take two shots in
the same place because he didn't want
