He is full of that magnetism which goes to make actors so popular and being one of the handsomest young fellows of the day, he easily captivates ills hearers. "Fritz in a Madhouse" will be the play. There is an abund ance of. clean fun and the company is made up of clever and Intelligent playeia. THE BOROUGH ELECTION. DEMOCRATS SVVEFP THE TOWN BY LARGE MAJORITIES. ! : Jlm F. Rpjlit Ch'-wn Hurffp** ly 71 Vote* Ovpr id* i jioncnt— Malloy Win* by HO ami l.j 06-Pnor Ticket Al*o CarricH Freli>ii(l-A Heavy Vote. Tuesday will be a memorable day in the history of polities in Freeland. When the six polls of the borough closed that day there ended the hottest, most exciting and most interesting local campaign that the voters of this town were ever called upon to-participate in. Both parties exerted themselves to their utmost, and as a result 1,042 votes were cast, the highest number ever polled here. The oflicial vote is published in an ad joining column. It gives .John F. Boyle a majority of 71 for burgess, Hugh Malloy a majority of 80 for tax collector and Henry Krone 60 for auditor. For poor director Henry Reineinan carried the town by 17 and for poor auditor D. B. Briehof leads by 70. The voting was brisk all day long at the several polls, the Democrats having large numbers of active and earnest workers in each ward. They went about their duties with a conlident air, fully believing that the returns would justify their labors, and in some of the districts every qualified Democrat had deposited liis ballot long before 7 p. ui. When tho day's work was done both sides rested for a brief spell, while tho election boards were counting. The First ward was, as usual, the lirst to report. In this hitherto Republican district the honors wore about even, Drasher and Malloy each carrying it by 4. The Fourth, the Second and the Third then reported in tho order named, and tiie result for the two principal offices at that moment was: Drasher, 380; Boyle, 222; Kline, 358; Malloy, 250. Bovle was 104 behind and Malloy was 108 behind. The famous South, how ever, was known to ho good for fully 200 Democratic majority, and it more than fullilled expectations. The com bined vote of the two districts of the ward was: Boyle, 331; Drasher, 00; Boyle's majority, 235; Malloy, 307; Kline, 113; Ma Hoy's majority, 104. The news spread rapidly through the town and the usual manifestations of joy followed. At the Grand opera house the announcement of the returns from the stage by Manager McMenatnin elicited prolonged applause from the audience. In deference to the wishes of the candidates, no public or formal demonstration of the victory was made, nevertheless it was late that night be fore those who helped to bring about the result were satislied to turn home ward. In tho wards both parties did what unbiased observers expected. In the Third a Republican school director was chosen by the party vote. In tho Fourth l)r. Butter and A. Goepport made a vigorous contest, but the odds were against them and George Sweet was elected councilman by 31 and George T. Brown, Esq., school director by 10. The South ward Democratic ticket won by an overwhelming majority, the Democratic vote of either district being sufficient to over ome the total Re publican vote in the ward. For council Chas. Moerschbacher was elected by 240 vores and Peter Tlmony was re turned to the school board by 233 ma jority. All day yesterday the triennial wail of the defeated could be heard, but among all the reasons advanced for the result the Republican iamenters failed to hit upon the real cause—the disgust of tho people of Freeland at the reck less. unbusincss-liko and wilfull squand ering of public money by the present Republican council. This, added to the contemptible methods used by cer tain candidates and their borough-paid heelers to bull-doze tho votors, made Democratic success certain long before a vote was cast.
