P- CANDIDATE REALLY LOOKS FOR 1 AND SLIDE IN HIS FAVOR—CROWDS GREET HIM IN OHIO. YOUNGSTOWN. 0.. Nov. 3.—Judge Taft finished his carapaigu here and toft for Cincinnati, where ue will vote today and in the evening receive the returns. Mr. Taft stands by Hitch cock’s estimate of 325 electoral votes. To his friends Judge Taft admitted that he was looking for a landslide la his favor but he added that he would be satisfied with a majority. Judge Taft’s Inst speech here made 41b that he has delivered since the campaign began. He has been on the road 41 days, has toured 24 state, and has traveled more thuu 14,000 miles. 15,000 Workingmen March. The closing blowout of the campaign here was a great labor demonstration. In the parade there were almost 15,000 working men. Besides the laboring men several thousand members of marching clubs from all parts of the Mahonlug valley and eastern Ohio were In line. Pitts burg sent her well known Amsrieuv club with their black caps, white plumes and star spangled banner um brellas. Taft got Into Cleveland at noon. He was met at the train by a reception committee beaued by Congressmau Theodore Burtou. There was a big business men’s parade led by the can didate. The streets of the city were lined to the curbs and every window contained from one to six heads. An audience of 12,000 was packed into the central armory. The cheering was continuous for seven or eight min utes after the candidate had appeared on the platform. The Cleveland meetlug was one of the noisiest that Mr. Taft has attend ed. In his speech Mr. Taft ridiculed Bryan's claims that Bryan la the law ful heir and successor of Mr. Roose velt and his administration, and de clared that It made nod lfference how much Mr. Gompers may misrepresent his position toward labor, for the speaker knew that all leaders did not sympathize with Gompers. having effected a reconciliation with his fsther. who left him wealthy st his demise. The vlllsge people are stricken with the famine, and Sir Rob ert dlstrubutea food and money right and left. The Grattan family, how ever, has disappeared.

Os course. Ragged Robin and Margaret are re united and the last curtain leaves the erstwhile vagabond and minstrel sing ing “flweet Girl of My Dreams." Tbe scenery Is excellent, an Interest ing feature being the bog scene, which Is e remarkably true picture. Florence Lester, as Margaret, ia very satisfying and the other members of tbe cast are well chosen for their piurts. "Ragged Robin" will be seen st the Detroit the remainder of the week, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. THR TEMPLE. Grand opera In a vaudeville theater taos an innovation, but that is what the patrons of the Tem ple have served to them this week. Albert Sutherland presenting Stance and Edwards’ first grand opera offer ing. “The Patriot” And it’s first class opera, too. There are seven charac ters In the cast as well as Floyd Moore, who directs the music. All are of excellent merit both as to voice and dramatic ability. George Washington, the father of his country, has been made the cen tral character. The story is of a plot to kill Washington st Valley Forge. The scene Is laid in the home of Man* hlem, a Tory farmer, whose fortunes have been wrecked by the success of the revolutionary army. Gen. Howe, the English officer, has offered 926,000 for the capture of Washington, dead or alive. While Manhlem and his Tory neighbors are discussing the af fair. Manhlem’s daughter. Marlon, en ters and warns them that the soldiers of the American army are in the im mediate vicinity. The scene is Inter rupted by the entrance of Washing ton, who tells Manhlem that he has come to tell of the fulfillment of a prophecy, namely, that Washington would be the deliverer of his country. A storm coroes up, and, ostensibly, his friends, the Tories, urge Wsshing ton to remain until the storm has ceased. Marlon attempts to warn Washington of the plot to kill him. but as she cannot do so without betraying her father, she shows the general to her room and she goes to the guest chamber where her father slays her, believing her to be Washington. Hunt lngtln May as Washington. Antoinette Le Brun as Marlon, and James fftev ens as the Tory have exceptionally fine voices, while the»other members of the cast ure well chosen and sing well. This act alone is well worth the price of admission. ’Shorty,” a story of the race track, is presented by IHck Croilus A Cos., under the direction of Billie Burke. Mr. Croilus. as "Shorty, a tout and trainer, is the stellar attraction in the playlet, and his witticisms and slangy talk keep every one laughing. In fact. It wouki be a decided “grouch” i who couldn’t or wouldn’t laugh at the street talk of this ’’follower of the ponies.” The incident tells of the at tempt of Welcher Moore, a wolf In sheep’s clothing, to beat *'9horty” out of his half of the money received In l a miserable deal, where the tout "dopes” a horse and lets Moore win "Shorty” Insists on being given half of everything, and the manner In which he goes about It, even to tak ing half of the piano, creates an up roar. Frotlnl has nothing to learn as an accordion virtuoso, his playing of that Instrument bringing forth melody tel dom predaoed by a professional organ or piano player.

Wha* anemia is, h»»w to recognise it ami the value of the tonic treat nn’ut with Dr. Williams’ Piuk Pills should be known by ths mollier of every grow ing girl. Auvutia is simply lack of blood.

LIKE II CONQUEROR OE OLD BRYAN COMES HOME LINCOLN FOLK’S GREETING TO COMMONER PARTAKES OF THE NATURE OF TRIUMPHAL EN TRY-FINAL STATEMENT. LINCOLN. Neb., Not. 3.—The great est demount rat ion In the history of Lincoln wan given to William J. Bryan by his fellow townsmen lam night on his return to his home city at the close of his campaign. Nonpartisan in character, it was participated in by Democrats and Re publicans, and the Democratic candi date was driven through streets and cheered by almost the eutire yopula lion of the city. Mr Bryan reached his home city at 8:30 o'clock on his tpeclul train, coming direct from Kansas, where he bad spent the day in a tiual whirl of speech-making His train was met at the Union station by a tremendous crowd. The parade moved through the main street of the city through solid masses of cheering people, and after circling through the city returned to the Hotel Lincoln, where Bryan spoke, overlooking the public square. Mr. Bryan’s speech was greeted with vociferous cheers. The candi date was moved to tears as he made an affectionate reference to his wife, and when he closed the demonstra tion accorded him was such as he rarely haa experienced in his three campaigns. *’l believe I am going to be elected.” he said. "More than that, 1 believe it Is going to be more than a bare victory. I believe that there is a stirring of the conscience of the Am erican people, a moral awakening, an uprising that means a sweeping vic tory, and I will swear in your pres ence that no one who votos for me will ever have occasion to b«* ashamed of the vote he casts.” His Last Statement. Mr. Bryan later Issued his final statement of the campaign. It reads: The Republican canuiuate nut be hind hint an array us ottue Hold ers. tiust magnates, moot of tne leading newb*-aet« and an enor mous campaign fund no tainted that lie dale not let. tne people know where it comes from until after they have voted, and tnal part of it that is contributed to the ltepubiican congressional commit tee will not be known even then. I have behind me tne awaaetted conscience of the country and the sentiment In favor of popular gov ernment which demands the elec tion of Virtted States senators by direct vote. I have behind me the victims of the trusts who are pleading for re lief. the laboring men whose peti tions have been rejected by the Re publican party, the depositors whose savings are jeopardised by the carelessness of bank officials and the consumers who have been exploited by the beneflearies of the high tariff. All these people see In a Demo cratic victory their only hops of relief, and they know that with the election of a Democratic president and a Democratic congress, backed by a popular verdict In behalf of Democratic policies, the way Is open for remedial legislation. The Republican leaders have been weighed In the balance and have been found wanting: they have betrayed the rank and file of their own party and have left the Democratic party to voice the hon est sentiment of the honest cttlsen ship of the country. Republican ana Democratic. What a spectacle the Republican campaign pr-sents at its close, the Republican candidate trying to re pudiate the support of the trust magnates, who are coming out from under cover and announcing their loyalty to him. and at the same time trying to claim the sup port of labor leaders like Mitchell and Duncan and Morris, who are openly repudiating them. Surely the hour has come for a return of the government to the hands of tha people. Let the people rule. W. J. BRYAN. Thanksgiving Day—Grand Trunk Rail way Byatem—Canadian Polnta Ona Fara.

P. statesman, Sena tor Julius Caesar Burrows, who was to have spoken here, last night, failed to show up, although 3,000 people had assembled In the Auditorium to hear him. No satisfactory explanation has been made for his absence. It was not until shortly after 7 o'clock, when the last train from the Celerv City failed to bring the dis tinguished orator, that the local com mittee gained the knowledge that it was to be disappointed. Then there was a hurried consultation. Senator Burrows was called by long distance phone and dumfouuded the Sagmaw -1 lana by Informing them that he hail not been notified that he was to speak in this city and did not know of any meeting arranged for him. The meeting fell flat and adjourned early with the local lights wrathful In the extreme. The meeting had been extensively advertised and a brass band paraded the streets and helped swell the crowd.

LANSING, Mich., Nov. 3.—From ona of the Democratic campaign head quarters hero is being sent out today circulars to voters in the Sixth dis trict containing statements prepared on information furnished by Washing ton opponents of the congressman. The circular alleges that Smith was j given free a block of stock in the National Lumber Cos. The president of this concern, it is stated, is now under Indictment on a charge of fraud. Troubles with an investor, Rev. Fr. Eugeue Hannen. are related, and lr is stated that Smith, a director of the company, helped to amass notes for $6,000 with which to satisfy Fr. Hannen's claim.

The labor vote will he getting out then and the excitement, if any is likely to come after dark. “This ain't an election; this la a prayer-meeting.” said one disgusted worker who had stood 10 minutes without a chance to even talk to a voter. Warner Cut Heavily. In the fifth precinct of the Sixth ward at a quarter to ten one-third of the registered votes had been cast. There was no concealment of the fact that Warner war being cut heavily and that was getting almost a solid vote. “'We wtll clean up the bulk of the vote In time for the 2 o’clock count said one of the board." Both Sldca Confident. Confidence ia alive In both camps. Republicans figure that, with a full vote, the changes of Breltmeyer tor election are greatly improved, the hlay-ai-bome vote having been large iwo years ago when Codd was defeat* ed by Thompson. It Is figured by the Republicans that the hard work of (he past week has offset Breitmeyer’s early mistakes. Mayor Thompson's supporters, on the other hand, say that his campaign has been the best he ever put up and that his record entitles him to a con* sideration which means election. They have spared no means to convert Re publican and Independent voters. There are enthusiasts who figure that Dr. Alfred Lowther, the Prohibi tion candidate, has a chance, but they are not many. It is a peculiar election In that In terest centers on the mayoralty to the exclusion of state and national issue*, i There Is very small chance of Bryan carrying Michigan, although there Is every evidence that he will cut Into the Roosevelt plurality. Hemans will get a big vote, especial ly in Wayne county, and he will cut Warner’s vote down so much as to en danger the latter’s chances of election for a third term unless Taft runs sur prisingly well In the state. Telegrams sent out by liquor men In Detroit to points throughout the state indorse Warner. This is a come-back to the anti-saloon Indorsement of He mans. Other liquor men condemn the sending of these telegrams as a dirty political trick by Warner members of the K. Y. M. S. Thompson Betting Favorite. Betting on the mayoralty still con tinues at 100 to 60, with Thompsou as the favorite. The concentration of effort to elect Thompson makes it less likely that any of the other Democratic contend ers —Mahon for congress, Kelly for sheriff. Gn.au for register of deeds, and Cunningham for auditor —will overcome the normal Republican ma jorities against which they must strive. Mahon seems to have the best chant-e of getting in. as he has strong support among tho union labor men which will get out a big vote for him regardless of party lines. There are a number of hot alder uianic fights. The wards which seem closest for council nominees are the Fifth, Sixth, Ninth. Tenth, Thirteenth. Fifteenth and Sixteenth. Usually the Ninth is a certain Democratic strong hold, but August Forth. Republican, has been making a hot fight there. Central counting board clerks met at 1 o’clock for Instruction. The bal lot boxes began to come In short ly after 2 o’clock with the early count, and from that time on the work of ballot counting goes on without in terruption except for meals, until tne counting Is all done. The first 50 precincts that came In were assigned !to 100 tables of counters, one gang taking the city ballots and the next the county ticket. The bonding prop ositions will be counted with the city 1 ticket. There will thus be returns simultaneously on all offices. GIVES LIFE FOR A CHILD CONDUCTOR SAVES GRANDSON, BUT IS UNABLE TO SAVE HIMSELF. EVANS VILE, Ind., Nov. I. —It ha& become known tbal William Wene, uO years old, a freight conductor on the Louisville Nashville railroad, who waa killed a few nights ago in a col lision at Mt.
