Senator Cummins of Iowa, president pro tern of the senate, pre- ' sided. The roll was called hy states: •'Alabama,” boomed the teller. Veterans of Madison square garden involuntarily shut their eyes and in toned: • “Al-a-hama casts 24 votes for Un der-wood." But instead there was the report that Alabama cast its 12 electoral votes for John W. Davis and Charles \V. Bryan. A rehel yell from the democratii side of the chamber greeted this and the roll call proceeded, followed bj the formal announcement that Coo! idge and Dawes had polled 38 2 votes In the electoral college; John W. Davis and C. W. Bryan, 13fi, and Robert M. La Toilette and Burton K. Wheeler, 13. Each state* followed the announce ment of Its vote with applause. The galleries were crowded with specta tors for the quadrennial cereqpony. The whole ceremony occupied less than an hour. When it ended the senate retired and both houses went prosaically about their business. President Coolldge was not even aware of it until informed by his secretary. Drainage Ditch Planned to Shorten Lost Creek Columbus, Eeb. It.—Lost creek, heading In the bluffs north of the lamp river In the western part of Platte county and flowing east through Platte anil part of Colfax county, is to he shortened by more than 20 miles. The county hoard of supervisors In session here is taking steps prelim! nary to the construction of a big drainage ditch which will tap Lost creek where it emerges from the bluffs two miles northwest of Oconee, Nob., nnd carry its waters two and line-half miles south to the lamp river.1 The project will cost about $30,000. Lost crpek empties into the Loup river now, hut following its devious curves and bends It flows more than 20 miles parallel to and only within four or five miles of the Loup before doing so. It is an inoffensive little stream in dry weather but In rainy seasons it quickly slops over its low hanks and floods hundreds of acres of valuable farm lands.

New York, Keb. 11.—The Green wich Village attic* offer many trag edies Qf genius. And there is true bohemianism there. Indeed most of those who display the noblest shields in art were once bohemians in the days they were climbing the green upward slope of youth. Yet for the most part the Village is filled with bunk and it s habitues are traveling paths that arrive no where. They are mere dreamers for whom art is a creed and not a craft and undf# this cloak of Bohemianlsm they laze through Inactive days. To me, however, there is some thing appealing about the stoicism of these attic dwellers, even though it is earried to absurdity. They make no outcry In their mad heroism. They have brought themselves to this dire want and so they suffer in silence. No whining. Many men and women are living in the Village on less than $500 a year. The Idolatrous worshiping of a chimera .brings the yelping wolf to the door. In the coffee houses and tearooms they sit for days and days talking of work they will never do. If a sudden windfall comes their way they exhaust It In a hurat of profligacy. If a real Job is offered them, they acutter away like » frightmed rabbit. In the beginning It Is a delight ful life. A life that I* lived only for the iiny and It end* In the hospital Hr the potters field. There Is one bohemian who did not leave his attio , room for three months. He lived in a dressing gown and wrote sonnets. In the ciil-de sae of Barrow street there are 12 ambitious scribbler* liv ing In three small rooms. Theirs Is the co-operative plan. If one sells a short story or a hit of verse the others share In thn spoils. The gloomiest spot |n New York is the famous Tombs prison. There is something woefully depressing In Its gray exterior and myriad waffle ironed windows. The last time I was there I had dropped In to see Karl Carroll, who was suffering self-im posed mnrtyrdom In the cause of his particular branch of the theater. There Is a. chill Inside that Is sug gestlve of barren swamps in the low lands. Vet ruen who remain there for several days adjust their spirits I somehow and bernme gay. They are | permitted to talk t” each other and they work out cross-word puzzles hv each ralllhe out a letter in turn , When anyone slips the others Join [ in the chorous by heating their tin cups against the Iron cot. They are particularly amiable toward the new arrival and try to rheer him up with shafts of wit. I have glanced over the inoonse quentlai Item above. Now I have never been In "tsirren swamps In lowlands" and consequently know itnl^ingnf their "(hill.” Writers etn ploy too many figures of speech about which they are Ignorant. I used to refer to rows of old buildings as "shambles" until Meredith Nichol son pointed out "shamble#" were slaughter houses.

Former Frown’s Boy looked out on a world of glistening wfllte. It was a beautiful world. As Jolly, round I right Mr. Sun climbed above the tree toits It seemed as if millions of dia monds were flashing everywhere. Yes, indeed, it was a beasttiful world. But the face of Farmer Brown's Boy wore a worried look. “It looks to me ns if there Is a hard crust," he muttered. “Yes. sirree, it looks to me its if there is a hard crust. That means trouble for a lot of the little people of the fireen Forest and thel (been Meadows. Some of them are going to go hungry unless I look out for them. This is certainly going to be hard for a lot of them, and the sooner I get out the better." So Farmer Brown's Boy hurried through his breakfast and took a lot Such a welcome as they gave him. of food out for the birds and other little people. Such a welcome as they gave him They hardly waited for him to spread It. Then Farmer Brown's Boy looked over to.the Green Forest. "I'm afraid It going to be hard on Thunderer and Mrs. Grouse. I'm worried about them. If they're raught under this crust it will go hard with them. Yes, sir, It will go hard with them. I'm afraid they will starve to death. I do hope they slept in a tree last night." All the lime he was doing his morn ing chores he kept thinking about Mr. and Mrs. Grouse. As soon as he could get away he started for the Green Forest. The crust was so hard that he could walk on it without breaking through, "I know," he said, "where those Grouse have been feeding lately and where they have been steeping. Several limes lately 1 have found the holes left by them when they eame out of the snow. I 11 just go over there and see if they are anywhere around. I'll take along some food for them." But when he got over there, of course. Farmer Brown's Boy saw nothing of ' Thunderer and Mrs. Grouse and heard nothing of them lie looked everywhere. His face grew more worried looking than ever. "They were not up in the Old Orchard after apple buds," said he, "for 1 came through there. They are not anywhere around here unless they are somewhere under this dreadful crust.” Then Farmer Brown's Boy began a careful search all about. Finally he discovered what looked as If there might have been two hole* In the snow which had been filled In. They were just below a certain spruce tree, lie looked at them thoughtfully. Then he looked up In the spruce tree. “If those Grouse were up In that tree and plunged into the snow for the night this is about where they would have gone in,” said he. “Of course, they would have worked quite a way under the snow. I believe I'll just break the crust all around here. Then If they are underneath they may have a chance to escape.’’ So by stamping with hl« feet Farmer Brown’s Boy broke the crust for some distance all around. Suddenly there > a startling roar of stout wings right behind him. He turned to see Mrs. Grouse shaking the snow from her wings as she flew and dlsapperred among the trees. A mo ment la. r Thunderer burst out be hind him In the same way. Farmer Brown's Boy laughed softly. “I've saved them!" he exclaimed. "I guess cd right. They were caught under this crust amt by breaking this I’ve net them free.” As for Mr, and Mrs, Grouse, their hearts were filled with gratitude to Farmer Brown's Boy.
