MRS. REED SMOOT
CLAIMED BY DEATH.
Wife of Utah Senator Had
Been III Two Years-Noted
as Hostess.

After being confined to her bed fol
more than two years, Mrs. Alpha May
Smoot, wife of Senator Reed Smoot OF
Utah, died at o'c7lock this morning al
her home, 2521 Connecticut avenue
She was 65 years old. Mrs. Smoot'S
death followed a. general physical
breakdown about two years ago.
She was born in Salt Lake City, Utah
on August 6, 1853, a daughter OF Horace
S. and Chloe Redfield Eldredge.
Married in 1884.
On September II, 1884, she was mar
ried to Reed Smoot. They were the
parents of six children-Harold r,
Smoot. Chloe Srnoot Carbon, Annie K.
Rebentisch, Harlow E. Smoot, zella
Ester Nibley and Ernest w. Smoot.
In a tribute to his wife, Senator
Smoot said: "She was above all a
wonderful home maker. Her whole life
revolved around her family and her
home and she managed the latter with
superb ability"
Shortly after Mrs. Smoot came to
washington with her husband, 26 years
ago, she began to acquire reputation
for hospitable entertainment IN her
home.
Had Entertained Presidents.
During her years here Mrs. Smoot was
hostess to Presidents Roosevelt, Taft,
Harding and Coolidge at dinner parties,
as we'll as scores of other prominent
public officials and representatives OF
foreign nations.
Mrs. Smoot was ever generous in
charitable causes, but most of her work
along this line was done individually.
Despite the fact that she spent most
of her time in her home, Mrs Smoot
took an active interest in politics, and
Senator Smoot has been quoted as say
ing his wife was "a great factor in
whatsoever success he attained"
While in Utah she was a member OF
the Republican Women's Club Of that
State, and in Washington belonged to
the Wives of Senator's Club.

RICHMOND, Va, November T.
There was no doubt today Of the COM
plete victory scored by Herbert Hoover
in the Old Dominion, additional returns
from scattering precincts adding some
what to the total piled up by the Re
publican nominee.
The intense interest in the campaign
had departed, and rural precincts not
reporting last night were slow in max
ing a count, realizing that the lead of
q, $50 registered by the Republican
standard bearer in 1,448 of the States
665 precincts was conclusive. This
siowness hampered the collection of re-
turns on the congressional races, two
of them being unusually close and two
others still in doubt. =

In this triumph, the prestige of Rep

This crashing Democratic defeat was
the most serious sustained by Frank
Hague, vice chairman of the Demo-
cratic national committee. and mayor
of Jersey City, since he came into Ma
