Judicial light, Hon. F. P. Kimble won out over County Chairman Charles A. McCarty by a few hundred votes. The Republican ticket for county olIlceB represent strong men and the nominees come from different parts of Wayne county. The result: President Judge Hon. A. T. Searle. Prothonotary Wallaco J. Barnes, Beach Lake. Register and Recorder W. B. Lesher, Sterling. Treasurer W. W. Wood, Hones dale. Sheriff T. Y. Boyd, Boyds Mills. County Commissioners Earl Rockwell, Ariel; John Male, Cherry Ridge. Tho fact that the above ticket is a representation of Wayne's election district and therefore It Is stronger on that account, because unlike the Democratic ticket, all the candidates are not Honesdale men. The Democrats nominated the fol lowing county ticket: President Judge-1 F. P. Kimble. Prothonotary Leopold Feurth. Register and Recorder Fred Saunders. Treasurer Alex Volgt, Hawley. Sheriff Frank C. Kimble. County Commissioners Neville Holgate, Charles Herrman. There was an unusual call for the Republican ticket. Many Demo crats called for the opposite party's ticket, which In two districts caused a shortage of ballots. In South Ca naan there were "35 men, It Is claim ed, who lost their vote, while In Honesdale It was necessary to print 100 extra Republican ballots to fill .the demand. County Commission ers' Clerk G. P. Ross claims that the law for supplying the district with ballots Is to give twice the number of ballots as were voted at the last official election. South Ca naan, 'he says, received over that number of ballots for the primary election of Saturday. W. H. Dimmick received two votes on the Keystone ticket for Judge. On the s,ame ticket each of the following received one vote for the respective offices: F. J. Tolley, register and recorder; A. F, Voigt, treasurer; ('. E. Dodge, prothono tary. There were 43G Republican bal lots cast, ISO Democratic, 2 Key stone and 1 Prohibitionist. No Dem ocratic return sheet has been re ceived from Clinton No. 2, hence no report is given In that district. Result of town nominations on Republican ticket: Assessor: W. L. Burnard 194; C. E.

High Constable J. J. Canlvan, Inspector of Election T. F. Gal lagher, 119. "Let Searle do It!" "Let Kimble do it!" "Let Dimmick do it!" That's the way the voters of Wayne county felt about the Judge ship fight last Saturday. And the way they cast their ballots at the polls proved that they put their good Intentions Into praiseworthy practice. "Vote in the Court Room!" an nounced a placard on the Court House steps, and when tho hour of 2 o'clock arrived, the sign could hardly bo seen so dense was the company of would-bo voters, that In one constant stream passed up and over the steps, on up tho winding court house stairs, and into the seat of Justice herself, where they exer cised the prerogatives, of freeborn American citizens. Tho feature of the voting at .the county seat was the largo number of Democrats who forsook the paths of Bryanism to walk In tho more congenial ways of Republicanism. No less than 411 straight Republi can ballots were voted out of a normal registration list of 375, while the Democrats cast only 189 straight party ballots. There ..-j considerable Jockeying about the iolls, shortly before 2 o'clock, everybody wanting to have the honor of casting the first ballot. "William Kain was the proud yeoman who called for the first Republican ballot, and a Citizen man was a close second. " There's so many candidates there. They shako a man's hand off before he gets In. After he gets out they don't care," walled an octogen arian voter In describing his experi ences at the polls. And it is to be admitted that tho warmth of the greeting hand clasp far excelled that of tho parting grasp. " Well I've got some money left, anyway," remarked ono of the de feated candidates to a Citizen man In tho afternoon, chuckling. " No canvassing for votes allowed In this room. You can't buttonhole a man in this room," warned one of tho watchors at the polling place. Little, If any, Intimidation of voters occurred. These men had charge of tho elec tion: Judge, John Boyd; Inspectors, Thos. Gallagher, D., Jos. A. Bodie, It.; clerks, John Caufield, D., E. A. Lindsay, R, Tho citizens of Honesdale voted at the rate of one hundred to the hour, or one and 2-3 ballots to the minute. A number of votes were challenged, but as they were all sworn In no confusion resulted. The 400 Republican ballots print ed for Honesdale didn't begin to reach, and a 100 more were furnish ed to supply the demand. Now for the final heat In the 1911 race. Five more weeks of strenuous activity are ahead of the successful candidates. COURT NOTES. At an adjourned session of argu ment court held Monday morning, October 2, Judge A. T. Searle hand ed down several decrees, to wit: In ro petition of taxpayers of Damascus township for authority to vote on the adoption of payment of road taxes by work.

Similar decrees were handed down granting the voters of South Ca naan and Canaan permission to vote on the question of adopting the sys tem of payment of road taxes in said township by work.

The Alert Hook and Ladder company's 13th annual supper and ball, held last Thursday evening, was a decided success, much to the credit of Chairman Robert Brenne man and his efficient helpers, con sisting of the ladles of East Hones dale. Long before the appointed hour for supper Alert hall was crowded with persons anxious to participate In the excellent menu that had been prepared for the oc casion. Many people availed them selves of a free auto ride to and from the hall In Erk's large bus. It Is estimated that over 200 persons were carried. The supper is the talk of the town and eclipsed any thing of Its kind ever held In the history of the company's existence. The tables wore decorated with can delabras with different shades, the effect of which was beautiful. The room was decorated with palms and Japanese lanterns and had the ap pearance of a private dining room. There were 350 supper tickets sold, besides 50 baskets being sent out. Supper was served from 5:45 till 9 o'clock. Confectionery, donated by J. D. Williams, Scranton, netted $30. It was sold by four young ladles from booths decorated with autumn leaves.

Edward Whymper, who barely es caped falling 4,000 feet down the sheer slope of tho Matterhorn forty six years ago, fell four feet off a lecture platform much later and broke his leg. Passing unscathed through many adventures, he was seen not long ago, a feeble and pa thetic figure, wandering about the Dase of the mountain he first scaled. He has just- died at seventy-one In his bed. Mr. Whymper's life Is an example of what an absorbing passion may do for a man or with a man. A young artist of moderate talent, he went to Switzerland at twenty years of age to make sketches, became fascinated with the Matterhorn and resolved to be the first to climb It. Having not much money, he explored alone the mountain's slopes and once barely saved himself from death by his presence of mind. On the day in 1865 when he stooU, the first of men, on the summit of the Matter horn, four of his party of seven were lost down its steep northern face In the descent. The others escaped by tne ureaKlng ot the rope. Ugly stories were long current that the leading guide, the last in coming down, had partly cut the rope. One ot tne young Englishmen whom Whymper had picked up for the trip, Mr. Hadow, was so frightened as well as tired by exertions for which he was unfit, that ono of the guides had to turn and direct the novice's feet Into steps cut im the Ice which he could no longer find for nimseir. it was while thus engaged that a fatal stumble sent four men rolling and bounding down the al most perpendicular cliff to the iomutt Glacier, a mile below. Br the achievement and the accl dent Whymper's name became known an over the reading world.
