Of these one ! was in jail, another overslept and i; others were ill or away from the i city. Response to Enrollment General in Delaware Wilmington, Del., June 6.—Regis tration in Delaware was conducted without the slightest disorder and the responses were prompt and gen erally enthusiastic.

Two Slackers Known Only one registrar reported that he knew of two men in his district who had not registered. This was in Lower Swatara township. Notices will be posted that the men are want ed for not registering. It could not be learned whether the men intend to evade the enrollment or could not appear. Exemption claims, varied. A num ber of men with dependants did not answer the question asking whether they claim exemption. In some dis tricts, however, the majority of those who were enrolled stated their claims, most of them based on sup port of dependants. 654 In One Precinct ! As the returns began to pile up i to-day in the county districts they were received by Sheriff W. W. Cald well and Deputies 'William H. Haff man and Burton R. Speas. Several of the registrars who made slight er rors in tabulating the enrollment for their districts were required to make corrections but all of them expressed a hearty spirit of co-operation and, seating themselves around tables in the available rooms on the second floor of the courthouse, quickly made the changes. The heaviest enrollment was in iSteelton, in the Second precinct of the First ward: seven registrars and assistants enrolling 654. The First precint of the Eighth ward. Harris burg, was the smallest, with three, and the Second precinct next, with four. This is in the Capitol Park Extension zone, where most of the dwelllnghouses have been torn down. Nathan Hummel, registrar for Rush township, reported that the first person to appear came at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the last of the six who were enrolled, at 8.30 last night. No Disturbances No complaints were made in the city or countv of any disturbances, and it is believed that the closing of the saloons, particularly in the city, was largely responsible for the order which was maintained without diffi culty during the day. Volunteer in terpreters were kept busy in dis tricts with large foreign registra tions. Onlv fourteen county registrars turned in bills for their work or for mileage to the city to bring in the returns. It is estimated that had the hundreds of men at work on the registration been paid it would have cost approximately $5,000, not in cluding the wages lost by many of the men who volunteered their serv ices. Only one rental charge for a registration place was received. Tliroe-ycar-oid Wants Card Charles Hensel, three-year-old son of Justice of the Peace George W.

Returns from four cities and three counties filed by telegram at the reg istration headquarters In Harrisburg to-day indicate that the enrollment of Pennsylvania men under the se lective conscription act will run very close to the estimates.

Musser, Washington Heights, last evening, that organization voted to Join with tile Elks in the celebration of l'"lag Day, June 14. The club will take part in the-parade preceding the exer cises at Reservoir Park. Howard C.
