to Win—Half a Hundred
Workers Out.
The politicians are having a
high old time in South Waverly
today in their frenzied pursuit of
the elusive voter, This morning
at 11 o'clock 120 votes had been
polled, and this number is not far
from the total usually cast in an
entire day's voting under ordimary
conditions. But the conditions in
South Waverly today are extra-
ordinary. Each side is putting
forth superhuman efforts to secure
a majority for its candidates, and
the result is mere guesswork until
the tally is completed this evening.
About half a hundred workers
are in evidence, and they have all
their best arguments on tap.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon one
report had it that the number of
votes cast had reached 160 or over
It is thought the count tonight
will show 200 or morc—a surpris-
ingly large vote for our usually
placid neighbor across the line.
But the vote is bound to be big,
because it is a big fight.

EAGLE'S DANCE A
“HUGE SUCCESS
Waverly—Waverly Aerie, Fra.
ternal Order of Eagles, held its
first dance last night in Stone's
hall and it proved a very enjoyable
affair to those who participated
From the first opening strains by
Kram's orchestra, until the last bar
of the concluding number had
sounded, merriment and pleasure
had full sway, and it was with true
regret that the tired but happy
dancers took their departure. The
Eagles have demonstrated that
they know how to give a dance,
and it is hoped that they may hold
another soon.
The committee which had charge
of the event was as follows : Edw.
Dougherty, Harry Raub, James
Cassidy, Frank Hogan, Harry
Iliff, Cornelius Ryan, William Mc-
Hale and Benjamin Dorgan

admirable traits of character, and
his demise will be sincerely re-

He was educated in Waverly pubs
