Lieb and Leo Austrian called upon him to present in an informal way the indorsement of the German Democrats. Carter accepted in the usual way, thanked his callers, and told them he was in to the finish, and that he was delighted at his indorsement by the Germans, whom he always deeply loved and highly esteemed, etc Carter said after the committee withdrew: I take all that comes. The more the merrier. I am in to stay, and fight it out and win." During the afternoon some of the Democrats at the County Building held a little caucus at which it was resolved to send a committee of Germans to wait on Carter and ask him whether he would draw out if Cregier should draw out. When Carter was told about this committee he said I don't think the committee will come to see me.

At the entertainment given at the Second Regiment Armory last night under the auspices of the Citizens' Committee the hall was profusely decorated with flags and bunting and the various musical numbers were of a patriotic character. The entertainment was advertised as being in the interest of purity in local politics, and the part of the program which was to give it that complexion was an oration on "Patriotism: the Necessity of the Hour," by the Rev. H. W.

Bolton. The speaker was unable to be present, however, and the Rev. O. E- Murray made a few offhand remarks in his stead, speaking briefly in favor of Elmer Washburn. Mr, Murray bewailed the prevalence of foreignism of.

Has Been Thoroughly Tested. The City Engineer has completed his report of the comparative evaporation test3 with and without the Lee smoke consumer, made early in the month at the Bridgeport pumping works. The tests were each twelve hours long. Without the smoke consumer the results were: Coal used, 17,000 pounds; with consumer, 16,400 pounds; actual evaporation, per pound of coal, 6.587; with consumer, 7.147. Saving in fuel by use of smoke consumer, 1 per cent.

A soft block coal was used during the test. Observations were constantly taken to determine the volumes of smoke emitted from the chimney, and it was found that the consumer reduced the amount to the minimum. In concluding, Engineer Cooke says: "I think it would be taking a 6tep in the right direction to adopt this device, as it will perform the work of reducing the smoke nuisance to such an extent that there can be no serious cause for complaint from this universal evil." Commissioner Purdy says that the consumer will be retained at the pumping works and as fast as required the apparatus will be supplied at the other pumping stations. A. Mart ieron.

when Mrs. Mackey's Boarders. George Harris, charged with attempting to poison the inmates of Mrs. Mackey's boarding-house on Michigan avenue, was found guilty by a jury in Judge TuthHTs court yesterday and sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary. The evidence on which Harris was convicted, while mainly "circumstantial, was strong.

David Laphlin testified that he gave Harris some arsenic after the latter had asked him for it, but told him that it was poison. The counsel for the defense sought to make a point in his client's favor by attacking the character of the female witnesses, but wa3 promptly checked by the court. Harris, the defendant in the trial, is a colored waiter who was employed to do general work about Mrs. Mackey's house, and because of some fancied ill-treatment at the landlady's hands he procured arsenic and put it in some tea of which all the household drank, making them deathly sick.
