do."

Old Freighter Goes
Aground in Storm
liy Assoriated Press
Orleans. Mass., Oct. 16.—The old
freighter Fair Oaks, a steamer of 19
years' service in the coastwise trade,
escaped the shipping grave of Cape
Cod's sandbars to-day through the sea
manship of Orleans coast guards.
The Fair Oaks, carrying a cargo of
plaster rock from Walton, N. S., for
Xew York, scraped over the outer bars
north of here in the fog last night and
brought up on the inner shoals with a
Jar that strained her seams. Heavy
seas pounded the vessel and caused
Captain Hassel to whistle for help for
his ship and its crew of 22 men.
After the surf boat of the coastguard
patrols had been swamped three times
in efforts to launch It from the beach,
the guard succeeded in reaching the
Fair Oaks. They found the steamer
with four feet of water In her hold,
pounding on the bar and held fast by
! the weight of her cargo.
Working through the ntght with the
men of the steamer, the coast guard
jettisoned part of the cargo and turned
the ship around so that, aided by the
rising tide, she was taken beyond the
line of breakers. Her captain said he
would attempt to proceed under his
own steam.

New Ruling in
Regard to Ballot
The courts of Montgomery county
decided that the name of Wallace
C Arnold should be printed on.the
November ballots as the Republican
nominee for school director,
that he had a plurality of one vote
over David A. Hutchison. At the
primaries the names of al '^
B Brooke Barrett were printed on
the ballots, they having filed nomin
ating petitions. But a number of
voters took it on themselves to
nominate Hutchison instead of Arn
-01 Hutchison and his friends and sup
porters circulated stickers bearing
his name and Hutchison sent out a
letter in which ho asked for support
and requested that his stickers be
placed over the name of Arnold.
This particular instruction accomp
lished his defeat, as the court, in Its
opinion states that in every instance
where the sticker was placed over
Arnold's name the vote was void.
So many were thrown out that the
102 majority, which the return board
of judges announced for Hutchison,
dwindled away and Arnold caine
through with the lead of one.
The court placed the costs of the
contest on the school district of the
borough.
