THE CITIZEN, FMnAV, JANUAhV 20, 1011. ASK Oil Id HEL Tammany Wants Him to Break Deadlock. SHEEHAN MAY POLL 95 VOTES But Ho Needs 101, and the Shepnrd Democrats at Albany Say They Will Not Give In Parker May Be a Compromise. Albany, N. Y Jnn. 18. Having fail ed to secure his election as United States senator in the balloting in llu two houses of the legislature, the ful lowers of William F. Surehan turned to Governor Dlx and demanded his aid In securing the votes necessary to make the caucus nominee the cholco of the legislature. They assert tliar on the Joint ballot this afternoon four legislators who held out will come In and vole for Sheehan. This would leave the Tammany forces sis vote.) short. Murphy himself asked Governor Dlx to use ills lnlluencu to break the dead lock and to throw that inlluence In favor of Slieehan. Whether the gov ernor will yield no one can tell, but upon him rests the fate of Sheehan. Twenty legislators are sworn to stand out against Sheehan, but they havu used the statement Issued by Governor Dlx as the basis for their bolt. The Sheehan men arc now putting it up to the governor that n big ma jority of his party In caucus has pick ed Sheehan as the party choice and that the governor should stand by thu wishes of a majority of his party. An effort was made to induce Shee han to withdraw In favor of Alton 15. Tarker, who received six votes In the legislature. This Sheehan absolutely declined to do. It Is believed that Sheehan will win today if he wins at all and lib friends are declaring that ho will win, though they do not explain how It will be done. The twenty Insurgents under the leadership of Senator Roosevelt hold the situation within their grasp. If they stick to their agreement nnd stand firmly against Sheehan ho will be forced to retire In favor of some other candidate. When the two houses meet In Joint session today tho Journals will be compnred. These will show that no candidate has received 101 votes, a majority of the 201 members of the legislature. Balloting must coutinui' in Joint session dally thereafter until a cholco is made. After today any candidate who re ceives a majority of the votes of tluv present, providing a majority of th legislators are present, will be dec-hti ed elected. It would thus be possllih for tho Republicans, by remalnlim away In sufficient numbers, to brlir; about the election of Sheehan, bir nothing of the kind is looked for.

FOR I h X The Girl Gave Answer In Lirteaa' i Fashion (o a Proposal I By ELGAN0R L. BRITT0N t Copyright, 1911. by American Press Jj Association. ; Spltzburgcr was a great traveler. He had visited every country on the globe, and I verily believe that If uvlallou had come up In his day lie would have sailed up beyond t lir clouds to find others. When 1 mad his acquaintance he had settled down In a place ho called by n jawbre-i 1:1ms name signifying "dwelling" that ! had picked up among the Eskimos or some other benighted people Tr wns In tho country situated on the lop of a hill and looked more like n Chi nese pagoda than any other structure. Spltzburgcr wan a widower, wlt'i one child, a daughter. SIio wan twen ty years old and for half her life had traveled during half of eacli year th. summer season with her father. He redity and travel had made her as odd as he. Rather she was unique Sho'wns of medium height, lithe, wiry indeed, a feminine athlete of the featherweight typo. Her hair wai hint and straight as an Indian's; her eyes large black ones, witli lashes of the Spanish typo. I wondered If her moth er had not been some dusky semir-ivi-lized creature her father had picked up on the underside of tho world. But he told me his wife had been an Amer ican Creole. Tho inside of the house In wltWi these two lived wns as curious as tho outside. The furniture and ornamen tal articles had apparently been gntii ered from all points of the globe, rang ing from the south sea islands to Greenland. There wis a mill fn grinding from the Holy Land slmi.r to those used in Bible times, n wheel from India to spin llax on, nnd th. bathtub had been the sarcophagus of an Egyptian mummy. Tlie reason for my making the Spit burgers' acquaintance was this: I was taking a postgraduate course at the time, studying tho customs of differ cnt races of men. tho causes nnd ef fects which shape them and their re lntlonship. Desiring some lnforma tion as to the people of Tibet, a lam' forbidden to foreigners and therefore little known. 1 was recommended to Spltzburgcr as ono who had penetrat ed to the Interior of that country 1 went to sop him, and my visit led to my studying with him. How long I remained there doesn't matter, but it was sufficient for my enthrnllment by that "little savage." as I called his daughter, Irene. Not that there was any outward intima tion on my part that I was coming un der a spell, nnd, as for tho girl. 1 had no Idea that I was any more to her than anotl or man. Indeed, I some times fancied that she might have left her heart in New Zealand, KamchatK-i or some other barbarous land. Whet'i er Spltzburgcr suspected the drift of my inclinations I don't know, but one day he took occasion to mention with approbation the marriage customs in Lapland, where ono who marries a girl without her parents' consent is adjudged guilty of a crime next below murder nnd is punished accordingly I thought that he looked at me very hard, but "a guilty conscience needs no accuser," and I may have attached more meaning to his words than they covered. The only thing to indicate that Irene nnd 1 were drifting together as lovers was that we took long walks together. I made an excuse for this that in her company I could both exercise nnd study. This was true. I could gel from bur certain information of the domestic habits of the people she lr' visited that 1 could not get from h" father. Ono day while wo were cl one of theso walks I said to her: "Your father tells me that in Lap land to marry a girl without hor pat ents' copscnt la punished as a crime Please tell mp how n man In that conn try does his courting," "no doesn't do nuy courting." "Then how does ho proceed?" "He goes to her parents and ask for her. If ho Is refused there Is ni' hope for him. If they approve of hi ' suit they tell tho girl of It. She ma: or may not have seen tho lover, but tho process is the same In cither case Her parents give a feast nt which they, the girl, her suitor nnd mulua' friends nro present. Tho two princi pals are placed opposite) each other at table, where they can observe and talk with each other all they like." "Well, then what? I suppose the girl has something to say in the mat ter, else this looking over her suitor would bo useless." "Yes, she has n good deal to say about it. but she doesn't yet make it known. She indicates her decision later. After the feast all go to an open smace suitable for running a race. A course la marked off a quarter of a mile usually and tho girl Is given a handicap of a third of the distance. Tho handicap Is Intended to enable her to win tho .nice easily If she wishes, and if she wins that Indicates her re- fusa,ltjoft.the offer.

"I will Inform her of the honor you do her," he said. I waited a day for a reply, and as 1 received none the suspense threw n Into an nwful fret. At tho end of tin second day, the situation being tli same, 1 wns almost demented. On the morning of the third, determined to have tho matter out with livne. I nsked her to gqfor n wall; with rn'. tho Inst wo would take together bofo- my departure. She assented and weiii up to" her room for her wraps. Sho was some tlmo getting them, nnd when she came down what was my surpris. to see that she bad put on a skirt reaching but little below the knees, an 1 Instead of a hat she had wrapped n veil about her head. I didn't dream for awhile what thl meant, but when she led me along :i path nnd across a stile to a space used in season for pasture I suspected once that she proposed to satisfy a whim by giving me nn answer to my proposal nfter the Lapland custom. 1 was too huugry for It to object to the terms and was quite ready to run for my answer. Indeed, so Impatient was I that I opened the subject myself. "A good place for a race," I re marked. "Splendid." "And a fine morning for it too. The air is crisp and full of ozone." "I love to snuff it in nnd get the odor." "Do you see that tree yonder?" "The oak split into two trunks near tho ground?" "Yes. I have a mind to race you for it." "How much advantage will you give me?" "AVhat you like." She pulled off a fur jacket and threw it on the ground, and I saw at once that she had divested herself of her corsets Indeed, there was nothing to interfere with any movement. Her short skirt, a tight fitting jersey and tho veil nbout her head made an ex cellent racing costume. But theso preparations appalled me. What could they mean but that she desired every advantage that she mif,h surely bent me in the race? "1 wish no handicap," she said. "1 think I can beat you on equal terms. I will go over to that stump, which i about the same distance from tho tree as we nro here. One nice would In1 little fun. Let us make It the best tv. i In three You give the signal." "Agreed," I said, and she wont off t the stum)). "One, two, three go!" I cried. She ran like a deer; but, spurred b' love, 1 kept an equal pace with h" I won that race. The second race was very differen. Irene permitted me nt first to gain . few yards on her, but before we h. traversed two-thirds of the distau t she forged ahead' and reached the tr" full ten feet ahead of me. I knew now that she could beat nn. if she wished. Nevertheless I deem -i' It my proper part to do tho best 1 could In the third nnd deciding race Burning to know my fate, I wished tt start at once. But she declined to go until she got her breath. While wc waited. I endeavored to see somctlilnp encouraging in her eyes something t indicate that theso races were the an swer I was expecting. But there wa nothing In her expression to Indicate that we were running for any purpose except pastime. She studiously tp nored every other consideration. Eiually, when my patience was near ly exhausted, she signified a willing ness to start. I gave the sjgnal, and for the first half the dlstnuce sin seemed determined to win. Surely slit1 could not J)!vc. pit forth greater ef fort. I saw her glance aside to se where I was, and slm dashed on, seen; ingly bound to reach the goal befort mo. But when within ten yards of ii my distance being twenty, she trippts ami 'fell: I ran on to the tree, touchr ' It nnd then back to her. liaising hi" I said impatiently: "1 suppose wo must try this un over."
