PAUL'S CLUB Derelicts Lifted From Seem ingly Hopeless Degrada tion and Made Useful and Self-respecting Citizens. A nodiln wreck of a. man shuffled along the liver front and wondered how lone It took to drown. He had had a Ions fight with John Barleycorn-awl h had lost. He had nothing to live for. He had lost everything he had to lose, family, irlends, business and health The whtskv liad even taken away his appetite for food, and now he could not even pet whisky. So he nerved himself and crept closer to the bulkhead. The waves mur mured invitingly. A laborer on his way to work noticed the lulteter mid Intercepted him. There a hp a short conversation and the two went off together. They turned In nt U t Ixombnnl street-Old Pt. Paul's Club-and the man to whom death had called was , put to bed. Then.

The failure to register means the loss of franchise rights on that day. All parties are awake to the Importance of a larpe reclstration for this November election. Among the reform leaders the slogan today is "For the dtfeat of Pen-rnie-a larce registration." In conse quence, of this, every effort has been made by the ward workers to impress on oaeh elector the fact that his vote is vital to tli- political welfare of Penn sylvania. "Failure to register means throwing away tho sreatest oppoitunlty in years to defeat Penrose," declared Albert E Turner, a banker and a member of the CommltUo of One Hundred, this morning. Kraneix A. Lewis. Sr.. who Is alo prom inent In reform politics in thl3 cit, said: "We must hne a Inrge registration, since a largo registration means a danger sig nal for tho organization, which In this election is equhalent to Penroselsm." I'lvlMon registrars will sit In every polling plare In the city today from 7 a. m. to 10 a m.. and from I p. m. to 10 P m. 12 very citizen to register must dis play a receipt for poll or property tax paid dnce Novembers. 1312 These receipts may be houglit at the polling places from the registrar, wno haa been appointed a deputy tax collector. Naturalization papers or a certified copy of them will be necessary for tho regis tration of any naturalized 'citizen who Is voting in a dlvMon for the flrt time. Any person -lalmlng citizenship by reason o"f his father's naturalization must produce his father's papers or n certified copy of them, or slse make affidavit that he 'was under 21 when his father hecam" a citizen and that he l now unable to produce his fa thei 'a papers.

The importance of this election, both from the point of offli.'-s to ho filled and the 'ssues to be determined, have led the party leaders to express tho hope that the total registration this jear will exceed that in 1811. s there will b no primary election before September of next year, party en :olmfiit is not essential this time. It is likely, however, that the various party Kaueis win urgo tneir men to enrol as I woll as register In order to uphold tha numerical prestige or tne party.

PORTIAND, Maine, Bept. lB.-In one of Ui closest elections the State haa ever known, the Demoorats yesterday elected Oakley O. Curtis Governor. The several thousands of voters who supported Roosevelt In the 1912 election flocked to the polls yesterday to hack the Repub lican tlckot, but thelf number was not enough to down the Domocrnts. Owlnff to the exceeding closeness of tho vote no one could bo nt all conn dent of the result until tho Inst ballot had been counted. The returns from all tho cities, towns and plantations gave Curtis, Democrat, 58,877; William T. Haines, Republican, 56,179, nnd Gardner, Progressive, 17,147; Curtis' plurality, 260S. Tho four Congressmen, Asher C. Hinds, John A. Peters and Frank E. Guernsey, Republicans, nnd Daniel J. McQllllctiddy, Democrat, were re-elected, according to the same returns as those received In the governorship contest. Tho missing towns are too nmoll to change tho count, al though tho plurality may bo reduced somewhat. The returns indicate that the Demo crats have made gains In tho LcgiBlatuio. The representative districts reporting have elected J6 Democrats, 42 Republicans nnd 2 Progressives, Just tho reversal or tho Democratic nnd Republican count of two years ago, while the Progressives at that tlmo reported three. The Senate ap pears to bo about the same ns two years ago. The House elected then was made up of 72 Republicans, 82 Democrats and 7 Progressives. The enrly returni favored Curtis, then tho tide turned toward Haines, but after midnight Portland and Bangor wero heard rrom, nnd the formor failed by 1000 to keep up tho pace set by tho rest of the State, while Bangor fell off completely on Haines' votes.

CANADA BECOMES FERTILE FIELD FOR AMERICAN EXPORTS 1 . Interdiction of Austro-Ger-man Wars and Stoppage of European Trade Creates Receptive Market. Great opportunities are available for tho establishment of an enormously n, creased export trado with Canada la "made In America" goods, according to Dudley Bartlott, chief of the Foreign Trado Bureau of tha Philadelphia Com mercial Museums. These opportunity are a dlreot result of tho European war, through the action of tho Canadian Mia lster of Customs In prohibiting the im portntlon into Canada of goods from Ger. many nnd Austria-Hungary. The im ports from thoso two countries Into Can ada amounted In round numbers to ,. 000,000 annually. It was also pointed out that tho Imports from France, Belgium and Itussla, whloh for the time being are as effectively cut oft ns If they wer forbidden, amounted approximately t J20,000,000 a year. So this prohibited and Interrupted Import trado of Canada totali $36,000,000. "It Is reasonable," Chief Bnrtlett says, "to assume that Canada will be In the market for substitutes for tho goods which mako up this total. That thsy will havo to be Imported Is a rcasonabls assumption. It is hardly likely that the CAiindlan manufacturers at this time at In a position to mako up the deflclt, though thoy may seize tho moment to develop along the necessary manufactur ing linos. This leaves two alternatives importation from Great Britain or from tho United States. It Is hardly reason able to expect that British manufac turers will be able to take advantage of tho present opportunity. On the other hand, It would not bo surprising if Im ports from tho mother country, whloh amounted to $139,&l6,3ofl last year, should bo temporarily curtailed." Tho present opportunity for American manufacturers in Canada Is principally in tho lines here enumerated. And to mako the information of practical value the importation on tho lines given from cacli of the belligerent countries are also given for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1913: naskcts Belgium, $13,S2t; France, $03731 aernuiny, !KI,uiu. ...
