City politics arc largely being discussed and the outcome of the municipal election next spring may be vitally affected by trades now being made.

This trading has to do with the election of John P. to the office of mayor next year. It is known that certain county tided upon for one of the aldermanic positions. His name has been submitted to the officials in the courthouse for their opinions and they are said to have least those who have consented to support for the place. It is proposed to include Joe Sweeney in the arrangements by allowing him to name W.

T. Griffith for alderman, if this will appease the mayor. Just how much further the combination goes is not known politicians have promised support in! whether it includes former mayor Kelly, the politicians do not the aim is to bring about a com- the spring election for city offices in exchange for help in the present race for county offices. Friends of the present mayor pro tern are behind ti.e scenes in the ne- bination between the city and county, such as that which prevailed during the Kelly regime. It is not certain that the arrangement has the backing of all the pres- gotiations.

They have not been ablejent city administration, in fact, it to pledge all the county officials to the plan of running O'Connor for mayor next spring, for some of the present county officials lean toward other candidates. Leading among the names mentioned is that of II. P. Jackson, at present superintendent of the city waterworks. It is said even by his elosest friends that it is not ccrtain he could be induced to run, but, even the close friends of nor admit that he would make a great race if he decided to go after the nomination.

Lineup Not Completed. probably has not, for there are some who believe mayor Davis may be a candidate for reelection and others who believe that J. P. Jolly may be a candidate. Have Xot Been Together, It is a certainty that the city and county officials have not been close together in the past, for members of the county ticket have complained for some time that they were not receiving whole-hearted support from the city.

The police, for instance are known to have been so active against certain candidates of the house that it recently became Most of the present countv office-i necessary for a member of the civil holders have already given their un- service board to lecture them about qualified support to for the their activity in politics.

In fact, the plan is said to have originated there.

The support is being given and to strengthen the assurance R.

Complete Lineup. No complete lineup has been decided upon, it is said, for the nor ticket next spring, but Roy Walker, at present a member of the school board, has virtually been de- tivity has been against those candidates who have opposition from candidates either now connected with the city administration or closely allied with city officials. For instance, it has been openly said that Seth Orndorff and C.

M. McKinney are being opposed by city officials' in favor of Percy McGhee and Mrs. May Hadlock closely connected with city affairs or city officials. J. Oscar Crowson, a city employe, is also said to be receiving the support of the police and other city employes for the office of constable, although I.

N. Davis has the endorsement of the county officeholders for the position. Certain city officials are also said to be opposing W. H. Fryer for reelection as county attorney.

This is particularly true of some of the police. Whether the ticket plan has the backing of anyone in the city administration except Mr. O'Connor and his immediate following is not known, but he has the backing of the morning paper; that is known, and it is no secret at the courthouse that its support for the entire ticket from top to bottom is pledged on the general understanding that the men on the ticket will be for Mr. O'Connor next spring. if SEASONABLE FOOTWEAR For The Children at ower Prices Play Shoes, Oxfords, Barefoot Sandals, Mary Janes and others.

It was a gruesome sight. Muttering incoherently to herself, with mouth shut and eyes opened, she blinkly kept up that ceaseless rolling i motion. Finally, collecting his scattered five senses from different party of the room, he bounded across the floor and kneel beside his suffering spouse.

Looking down upon her convulsive contortions his heart smote him and he staggered back toward the telephone he called. Suddenly a thought struck him. She was suffering so intensely, wouldn't it be the kinder thing to just let her go? Wouldn't he be doing a cruel thing to let her live thusly? Yes, that's right. He prolong her misery.

The meetinsr was presided over by judge W. P. Brady, who is a candidate for reelection as judge of the county court at law. Speakers were former mayor Tom Lea, judge Jackson, judge W. D.

Howe, county attorney W. H. Fryer, R. M. Dudley and district attorney Leigh Clark, all those mentioned in office being candidates for relection.

Words of praise were said for all members of. the courthouse ticket. Judge Jackson said county attorney Fryer should be reelected, because he always prosecutes violators of the law with vigor, and some of those he has prosecuted might be fighting him now. Candidates for office on the courthouse ticket held a rally at the fire station in Highland Park Thursday night. Inclement weather kept the crowd small, but considerable enthusiasm was manifest.

July a note from the grave was a letter received a short time ago by Lieut.

George Dinges, stationed at Tullytown. from his sister, Mrs. A. A. Haywood, of Long Hill.

who was naped 34 years ago when she was a baby, and who was long since given up as dead. George Dinges and his sister, May, were the only children of Mr. and Mrs. William Dinges, of Mount Ivisco, Westchester county, N. Y.

When Ida was two years old and while she was playing about the house she suddenly disappeared. It was later learned she had bef'n kidnaped. The parents spent considerable money and effort for many years in a search for her. Meantime the missing girl grew to womanhood and married A. A.

Haywood. One child resulted from the union. Following the death of the Ileb- barda who had reared her as their child, it leaked out that Mrs. Haywood had been adopted when a child and that her real name was Dinges. This news surprised the woman and she at once began looking up all the families named Dinges throughout the.

country. She learned that a lieutenant named George Dinges was in the United States army and she com- municated with the adjutant general, being informed later that the man she sought was stationed at Tully- town. She then wrote to the lieutenant and he hurried to Lons Hill to visit her. Mrs. Haywood inherited both money and property from the Ileb- bards.
