Dramatic Notes By TARLETON COLLIER.

The saloon element ignored this threat and threw its support to Iiowse, who had made a threat similar to that of Nell. Both Meeks and Cooper are claim ing wholesale frauds and declare they will contest the election. Women workers were prominent at the polls and numerous prayer meet ings were held throughout the city during the day In the interest of Cooper. Despite such Intense bitterness as has been manifested during the cam paign, the election was remarkable for its quietness, only a few minor difficulties being reported. linois Democratic Leader, in At lanta on Visit, Gratified by Tariff Reform, Mississippi’s Richest Planter Weds Nurse MEMPHIS, Sept. 12.—Love at first sight three weeks ago led to the mar riage here Friday in the Peabody Hotel of M.

Mr. Boeschenstein scouted the Idea of a panic an a result of the enact ment of Democratic tariff. The Dem ocratic party in Illinois, he declared.
