LAFAYETTE MAKES RECORD COLLEGE CITY GIVES THEJ-1QUOR TICKET A MAJORITY OF 2,504, SHATTERING RECORD MADE BY RICHMOND. 1
Lafayette, Ind., May 1. Tippecanoe county, with 103 saloons and Purdue University, at Lafayette, voted "wetyesterday by a majority of 874. Washington, Martin and Jefferson voted "dry." The former has been without saloons for a year, and the "wets" offered no resistance. The "dry" majority in Washington, including Salem, the county seat, was 1,285. Unofficial returns give Jefferson to the temperance contingent by a -majority of 54, but every precinct in Madison except one' voted -"wet." There were two of the oldest breweries in the state at Madison, and 36 saloons. Drys Sweep Martin. Martin, one of the small counties, went "dry" by 395, wiping out eight saloons. The result in Tippecanoe Is the most notable victory won by the "wets," except In Wayne county. Both sides put up a fierce fight in Tippecanoe, Lafayette being the battle ground. The odds were in favor of the Anti-Saloon leaguers, as President Stone and the faculty of Purdue led the opposition to the "wets." There are over" 2.000 students at Purdue, and arrangements were made to vote hundreds of them. In spite of the protests of the mem bers of the Taxpayers' League several hundred nonresident students were vote'd in West Lafayette. The city of Lafayette gave a "wet" majority of 2,504, which establishes a new record in Indiana. The township in which Purdue is located gave a dry" majority of 831. The "drys" carried the outlying townships by a majority much lower than anticipated. The victory of the "wets" in Lafay ette was due very largely to the stand taken by the. business men, who made a thorough organization. The "drys" controlled the election boards, and were able to vote the students at will. However, the "wets" made them give affidavits that they were resident voters. Forty-seven students were arrested during the day for illegal vot ing. The women took au important part in all of the elections, praying at the churches and serving sandwiches at the voting places. At Madison six men, thought to be illegal voters, were arrested. Fifty counties have voted "dry" and four "wet." Eighteen counties are "dry" by remonstrance, making the total "dry" 68..

The Hague, May 1. The baby princess born yesterday morning to Queen Wilhelmina weighs six and one-half pounds. She has light hair and blue eyes. The populace everywhere, especially in , Amsterdam, Ratterdam. and The Hague, selebrated last night with an abandon that can only be compred to the London delirium on "Mafeking" night. Everybody was decked with orange decorations, grading from small rosettes to sashes enveloping the whole body.' Sober, respectable people, including many elderly persons, danced in the public squares. Cafes were crowded and the baby is toasted with every sort of potable fluid. An appaling din filled the streets. Church bells are clanging, bands are braying, fireworks are exploding, thousands of persons are chattering and laughing, while the sirens of steamers are tied open to shriek unceasingly. The more seriously inclined citizens attended thanksgiving services in the churches, displaying an unwonted fervor In their devotions. . Workmen First to Hear News. The announcement took place at 7 o'clock. The first persons outside the royal palace to hear the news was a party of workmen passing the .residence of the queen on their way to work. The cheers they raised were the signal for the general rejoicings. Flags and bunting that had been held in readiness were unfurled and the city took on holiday attire. Prince Henry at once telegraphed his mother advising her of the happen WANTED GOOD TIME: HE LAUDS Hi JAIL Hagerstown Man Pinched for Too Much Booze. Frank Wieland came down from Hagerstown this morning to have a good time in the county seat. He had secured a bottle of - whiskey before leaving his, native land, however, and when the train reached this city he was dead to the world. The trainmen had trouble in removing him from " the coach, but he was ousted at last. At Elm Place and Ninth street, patrolman Westernurg took him in tow. PALLADIUM WANT ADS.

William Mcllvaine, who operated a place at the corner of Hoyt avenue and Liberty street, would have had to go out of business also on May 9 but recently he surrendered his license. A new one was taken out by Herbert Benadum on Monday, the day before the election and he will get to run the place the full ninety days following the election, or up until July 26. SECURITY
ing and adding that the condition of
the queen was .most satisfactory. Her alds Accompanied by trumpeters in ancient Dutch dress made the rounds of the city, halting at the principal squares and other suitable spots to make after due fanfares, the following proclamation: Fellow citizens: With great joy we announce the news that her majesty, by the grace of God," has been delivered of a princess. The entire popula tion of The Hague shares the feelings of deep joy of the Dutch' people, and is thankful for the blessing bestowed upon the royal house and upon the country. May the happy - event strengthen the bonds uniting the Neth erlands and the house of Orange. Long live the queen. Long live the prin cess of Orange. Diplomats Extend Congratulations. The Belgian minister to the Nether lands, who is the doyen of the diplo matic corps, was the first to sign the list of congratulations at the palace. He was followed in quick succession by the other diplomatic representatives. The political significance of the advent of the royal baby lies In the fact that there now is an heir to the throne of the Netherlands," a circumstance that greatly enhances the country's chances for continued Independence. It is said that the Dutch court inquired some time ago whether the kaiser was willing to stand as godfather for the baby and that Wilhelm immediately agreed. It is not improbable that the kaiser and kaiserin will attend the baptism of the infant princess. WEATHER MAN IS BESIEGED BY A MOB OF FARMERS Angry Agriculturists Were Bent on Lynching Weather Expert But He Offers Good Explanation. FRUIT CROP MAY BE HURT THIS EVENING Joseph Helms States If the Weather Clears and Wind Goes Down, Bad Frost Is Very Probable. At an early hour this morning an angry crowd, armed with pemp rope, pitchforks, shotguns and el'ibs. surged about the besieged Home of the Weather Man, as an angry sea tosses itself against a stormbound light house. "Kick in the door and hang the monster," could be heard on every hand. Finally the Weather Man cautiously thrust a white flag from an upstairs window. The angry mutterings ceased, then the flag was followed by the head of the Weather Man, his eyes popping in alarm., ' Explanation Demanded. "What do you mean by turnln' on such gol darned weather fer?" demanded an Irate agriculturist; acting as spokesman for the mob. "Gentlemen I assure you that this foul work is none of my doing. Old King Boras of Medicine Hat is the party to blame. I assure you I am speaking the truth." was the quavering reply of the Weather Man. This satisfied the maddened farmers and they sullenly departed. At the Palladium office this morning Joseph Helms, Wayno . county's corn expert, stated That up to the present time, the fruit crops had not been damaged but there was imminent danger. ; No Frost Last Night. "The mercury onlv dropped to 46 last night," stated Mr. Helms, "so there , was no freeze. . The frost was frustrated by the cloudy condition of the atmosphere and" the stiff winds. However if the. weather clears up and the wind dies down there la a strong possibility of a frost tonight. If there is a frost it wffl do great damage to the fruits." v , ; By the way, Mr. Helms has Just been notified that the . governor has again appointed him as 'Wayne county's delegate to the. National Corn Show, at Omaha, Neb.. December 6 to 18. Mr. Helms asks the co-operation of the farmers.

1 BAKERS 01IA STRIKE New York Workers Demand Bigger Loaves and Higher Wages. CAUSED BY WHEAT CORNER New York, May 1. Two thousand bakers of the East Side are on strike today in a demand for the former sizo of loaf, higher wages, a closed shop, shorter working hours and better san itary conditions in which to work. The stike is declaed to have been caused, indirectly, by the recent Patten wheat corner in Chicago, which led to a reduction of wages. In consequence of the strike, which went into effect early today, about 3S5 bake-shops were crippled during the most important time of the baking. and many were unable to supply all of their patrons with bread. The Master Bakers' Association, which met at 232 Boome street, declared that there la no cause of grievance on the part of the men, and assert that they will resist their demands. The strike la thus far confined to the work ers south of Houston street. SKELETON IS DOG OP III OLD Grewsome Find Has Started The Theory of a Mysterious Murder. JAY COUNTY IS EXCITED INHABITANTS TRYING TO RECALL STORIE8 OF MISSING PEOPLE TO EXPLAIN THE CASEBLOOD AND THUNDER. Portland. Ind., May 1. Has there been within the past few years a murder or mysterious disappearance of someone in this county? This is the question which Is just now puzzling the residents of. Poling, nine miles northeast of this city, and the immediate vicinity. All this anxiety has been caused by tbe finding of a skeleton on the farm of Andrew Van Doren, three-quarters of a mile west of Poling With Daniel Dixon Van Doren was engaged In ditching; a field running through a swamp on his farm. The men had reached a depth of a foot and a half, when the shovel of Dixon struck a hard substance. Supposing it to be a rock, he only worked the harder. To his horror, with his next shovel of dirt, there was brought to the surface a perfectly fronted skulL The men then dug; deeper and unearthed fore arm and several other portions of the skeleton. All the bones were In almost perfect condition. There was a full set of teeth In one jaw. with eight teeth in the other. - The bones foand were takes to the of Van Poren, where- they-will

.... $554,978:17 .... 489,525.78 330,003.56 DEPOSITS remain. The condition of the bones indicated that they Cad been buried about ten years. Ideal Place for Bad Work. The spot where the bones were found would make an ideal place for the concealment of the body of person foully murdered. The farm of Van Doren Ilea back from the main road some distance, being reached only by a private right-of-way. The swamp where the grew some find was made is In a far out-of-the-way corner of the farm, and the mystery surrounding the find is growing; deeper since it first came to light. The oldest inhabitants of the neighborhood do not remember that the ground was ever used for burial purposes, and the supposition is that the seclude! field was made the final resting: place of some man or waman who met an unnatural death. Good Melodrama. One resident of the neighborhood, la talking of the find, remembered that about ten years ago a man and woman came to Paling's, remaining a week.
