HEME'S WHERE YOU'LL EINI TEE fEOPLE'S lAMET PLACE
The Best Gift
Every family should own their own home.
The possession of a home makes for better citi
zenship, no matter how humble or palatial the home
may be.
You could make your family supremely happy
if you gave them a home as a Christmas gift.
It is not necessary to pay the full purchase price
down. Many good, substantial homes come out of
making a small initial payment an<J caring for the
rest in easy monthly instalments, the same as rent.
Talk it over with your wife to-night, read all the
houses for sale in the Telegraph Classitied Ads. and
see if you cannot make this the Merriest. Happiest
Christmas of all for your family.

Court Hears Remonstrance Against
Sullivan Transfer; No Deci
sion Handed Down
Of the 1,702 signatures on the re- l
monstrance against the transfer of j
Patrick T. Sullivan's hotel license to
1819 North Third street nearly a thou- j
sand of the signers were women of the ,
Eleventh ward.
That was ono of several interesting i
facts developed to-day when President
Judge Kunkel and Additional Law
Judge McCarrell sat to hear the appli
cation for a transfer of the Sullivan j
license from 727-29 State street to the
West End.
Xo objection to Mr. Sullivan's i
character or reputation of his hotel 1
was raised. The remonstrants were j
represented by the Rev. Dr. B. H.
Ilart, pastor of Fifth Street Methodist !
Church and chairman of the commit
tee that circulated the remonstrance.
Dr. F. E. Downes and Secretary D. D.
Hammelbaugh, of the School Board,
represented the directorate, who pro
tested because the proposed location is j
close to a school building. Dr. Hart '
objected on behalf of the remonstrants -
on the ground that tile hotel would be j
too close to the Cameron school build- j
ings. the Reily playgrounds and the
Rellv Hose tlrehouse.
Other witnesses against the grant- |
ing of the transfer Included Wiliner 1
Crow and Samuel S. Eby. The court '
took the papers.

Russians, il is declared, left a large
number of killed and wounded on the

The situation in the western battle

Oil CHOICE OF HERD
Ballot 78 Timet and Finally Post
pone Election Until Sat
urday Night
After voting again and again untu
seventy-eight ballots had been t&ken,
the School Board yesterday afternoon
<iult because of darkness and postponed
until Saturday, at 7:30 o'clock, the elec
tion of a president to succeed Harry A.
Boyer. The session lasted more than
two hours.
To date there are three candidates in
th® tleld, with five votes necessary to
a choice. The list stands thus:
Harry A, Boyer—4.
Adam D. Iloutz—3.
The Rev. Dr. William N. Yates—3.
Harry M. Bretz, the retiring vioe-
S resident, and candidate for the snnia
onors again, served as chairman. The
ball opened with three candidates in
the tleld—President Harry A. Bovor,
Adam D. Houtz and the Kev. Dr. Wll
ll a l n . Yates. Messrs. Saul, Kennedy,
Fohl, and Bell voted for Mr. Boyer:
Messrs. Yates. Werner and Boyer voted
for Mr Houtz. anil Messrs. Breta and
Houtz voted for Dr. Yates. Dr. Yates
hadn't been mentioned ns a candidate,
but Messrs. Iloutz and Bretz just cast
their votes for him from the start.
On the fifty-fifth ballot Mr. Werner
switched his vote to Dr. Yates in an
effort to break the deadlock, but this
failed and lie turned back agalnt to Mr.
Houtz after ten unsuccessful attempts.
When five ballots had been taken Mr.
Houtz suggested that the election go
over until Saturday, but there were
strenuous objections to this and the
voting went smoothly along. A little
later one of the directors sent out for
cigars to while away the hours and the
voting was resumed. Then the clerks
were told to phone home to anxious
wives and little ones that father
wouldn't likely be home to supper and
that mother and the children shouldn't
wait.
