MEN OUTNUMBER
WOMEN VOTERS
THAT'S TRUE IN LANCASTER
COUNTY BUT NOT IN MT.
JOY BORO AS THE FAIR
ONES ARE A MA.
JORITY HERE
Assessment returns, available to
date at the Court house, show more
men voters than women in Lancaster
couvty. Early expectations that
wo. 4n v-'2rs would outnumber the
men, wen ‘discredited when with five
county districts missing, 119 districts
of city and county showed 55,758
men and 45,746 women have had
their names placed on the assessors’
books. In Mount Joy the ladies have
a big majority. There are 55 more
women registered in the East Ward
than men and in the West Ward the
ladies lead by 49. This is a total of
104 for the town. There are 320
men in the East Ward and 332 in the
West Ward, a total of 652. Ladies
here’s one of your opportunities to
rule the men (provided that enough
of you have back-bone to stick, even
though the political lieutenants spill
a flowery story).
The work of assessing and enroll-
ing voters was ended Wednesday.

FORGER IS CAPTURED
AFTER A LONG CHASE
Paul Bostick, arrested in Akron,
Ohio, on charges of forgery on two
Lancaster county banks, has been
brought back to Lancaster by Sheriff |
Homsher for trial here. Bostick, who |
is about 30 years old, formerly lived
near Marietta, and the alleged for-
geries were committeed six or eight
months ago.
It is claimed he forged the name
of Harry S. Nye to a check for $300
on the Marietta National Bank. On
that charge he will be given a hear-
ing before Justice of the Peace
Grahm at Marietta. It is also charged
that he forged the same name on a
check drawn on the Union National
Bank at Mount Joy for $50. Com-
plaint in this case has been made
before Alderman Spurrier in Lancas-
ter.
Both banks are members of the
Pinkerton Detective Agency and its
operators traced Bostick into Ken-
tucky and other places in the South,
finally arresting him at Akron, Ohio.
The local end*of the case was handled
; Detective Broome.
