LAST OF BIG STEEL STRIKE TliMTnrUcrx Who Declined to Resume When ntliera Did Are CoiiiIiik to It, PITTSBURO. Nov. 16. The last remain ing rough edge of the late great strike of the steel and tin workers Is likely to be THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: fguyPAY, NOVEMBER 17, J 901. smoothed tonight. When I ho strike was settled by President Shaffer the steel workers promptly acqulescod In the settle ment and showed a willingness not only to return to work, but to let bygonos be by gones. But tho tin workers refused to go back to their old places and have been Idle since July 15 last. Now, however, they are evincing Indications of growing tired of their long Idleness and a move ment Is on foot to have the strlko officially declared at an end. Then n striker would be at liberty to return to work without prejudicing his standing as a union man. This will probably be done at tonight's meeting. Ante Room Echoes Judgs Anderson has returned from a trip to Hastings, where the Masons of tho Scot tish Rlto held sessions Wednesday and Thursday of last wcok, conferring degrees from tho fourth to tho fourteenth, Inclu sive, upon a largo number of candidates.

A lively time Is expected among the members of Court Ak-Sar-Dcn of the In dependent Order of Foresters, as u rcwult of a membership contest started at the last meeting, the forfeit being a banquet for the entlro court. Somo surprises aro looked for at the meeting next Monday. Tho mom bora of tho court were very enjoyably cn tortalned hy Brothers II. A. Hansen, T. II. Perflcld and T. It. Huston. A. J.

Triangle lodgo, No. 54, Knights pf rytblas, worked in tho second rauk at Tests of Voting Machines The superiority of tho voting tnachlno over the old method of casting and counting votes conies in for unstinted praise In the various localities In Now York stato where the dovlco was operated In tho last election. It Is not n new thing In that state, having been tested at Rochester, Syracuse, Buffalo and other cities for at least two years. Tho machines were more gonerally employed this year nnd proved a great success. Vot ers had llttlo difficulty In operating tho macninc correctly, nnd votes were cast tnoro promptly than under the old cumber- somo mothod. But tho great value, of the machlno Is tho Instantaneous knowledge It furnishes of the vote cast for every candidate and tho promptness with which the remit may bo given to tho public. Where houra are now consumed In counting marked bal lots tho machine takes only seconds, At ono of the polling places In Brooklyn a machine was used for tho first time and the result of tho voto was known In two minutes after tho polls closed nt 5 o'clock. A fow minutes after the result was an nounced Lieutenant Governor Woodruff, who had taken much Interest in tho voting machine experiment, called at tho nolllmr place. Ho was greatly pleased with tho work of the machlno. 'If Now York City rocs another year without placing voting machines In overy election district," said Mr. Woodruff, "It win .bo n shame and an outrage on the poople. I havo Just come from another election district and when I left there tho Inspectors hadn't even gotten tho ballots unfolded. Hero tho entlro work of counting me voto is already completed." It was the opinion of Mr. Woodruff and othor lenders, relates tho New York Times, that for speed and accuracy tho machlno had shown Itself to bo far In advance of tho present system of voting. With tho ex ception of a fow tho voters In tho district experienced no difficulty In operating tho machine. Thoso who found trouble with tho device wero quickly mado acquainted with Its workings by means of a small dummy machine. By means of the machine the votes were cast with far more quickness than In tho other districts, where tho old Bystem was In use. Of tho 410 registered voters In tho district 200 had voted beforo 9 o'clock. Tho number of votes cast for each candidate was registered automatically. All that tho Matrimonial Boosters Unique among tho charities of tho world aro thoso maintained In many localities of Kuropo for tho purposo of assisting young couple to marry, but who aro financially uuablo to do so. In Germany prizes aro offered for the marrlogo of tho ugliest girl, tho most crip pled girl, and tbo women over 40 who havo been moro than onco Jilted by lovers. It Is not to bo expected that this form of finan cial benefit will over bo required In such a laud of uoblo women as ours, but there aro doubtless mauy young couples who would Ilko to sco established somo bequest for providing house-furnishing money for hard working but small-salaried lovers. Great Britain Is far In tho lead In putting such a prlzo on matrimony. Tho late mar quis of Bute, a millionaire, established a fund for tho benefit of tho women of Car diff, in Wales. To commomorato his silver wedding In 189" ho presented the town au thorities with $5,000, to bo held as a trust fund, the Interest from It each year to be paid to whatever pair of Cardiff lovers could satisfy tho trusteos that they were most In need of tho fund to help them es tablish a home. Tbo young woman must bo of good moral character and her lover of good repute, sober and Industrious. The first endowment under tho fund was made the next year, when a year's Interest had accrued. A nurso maid and a young man employed In a local paper factory sat isfied tho requirements, wero adjudged true lovers nnd to havo 'tho capacity of becom ing useful members of tho community, and they wero consequently awarded tho prlrc, which amounted to $110. An ex-soldier was a benefitor tho next year with the girl of his heart, a house maid. Tho soldier was working at a build ing trado In Cardiff and tbo couple were given tho same amount as their predeces sors, and with It rented and furnished a comfortable home. Favale, the Italian composer, established a similar fund In England In 1883, which, however, has not yet become available. It will bo drawn on In about two years for the first time. Favale, with less knowledge of tlnanco than of music, gavo $3,500 to their last meeting. On Thursday evening this lodgo will havo work In tbo third or knights rank. Sister lodges and vUltlng knights are cordially Invited to meet with us. On Thanksgiving evening the annual olcctlon of ofilcors of this lodgo will occur, nt which tlmo tho committee on entertain ment will havo prepared a flno lunch, con slating of roast turkey, goose, etc., as Is usual on this occasion.

(Copyright, 1901. by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Nov. 16. (New lorn worm Cablegram Special Tolegram.) Tho duke and duchess of Marlborough intend to pass the early winter at Blenheim, They will hunt with the Leicester nnd Heythrop hounds Instead of taking a hunting box in Leicestershire as thoy had dono the last few years. They come to London frequently and tho duchess entertains at the Carlton, as they havo no London house. Tho new Marlborough mansion In Mayfalr Is perceptibly rising from the ground. Iron Is being largely used In Its construction. The plUarB and girders of the frame look like a giant skeleton, The great feature of tho Interior will be a marble hall with a staircase like that In tho Barbarian palaco at Itome. Tho furniture and docorations will be of the seventeenth and eighteenth century Ficnch stylo, Tho duke Is greatly occupied Just now acquiring the objects hfi requires The houso will bo only three stories high. It will contain a vast ball room, as tho duke fully Intends to bocoino the social leader of tho tory party. Tho duke was 30 years old Woduesday. I Inspectors had to do to ascortaln tho result after tho closing of tho polls was to unlock i tho back of tho machlno and tako tho fig ures recorded there. Each of tho Inspectors was provided with a key. To open tho 1 machlno It wus necessary for all the keys to be Inserted In the locks and turned simultaneously. There was no other way of unlocking the machine, tho scheme being to prevent any chance of fraud being com mitted. The poll clerks figured out that the aver ngo tlmo taken by each voter In voting with tho machine was eighteen seconds. As a rulo those who voted spilt tickets occupied moro tlmo In tho booths than the voters who voted the straight tickets. Each voter was allowed one minute', time In the booth, whereas under thu prevailing system of voting a voter Is allowed to remain In tho booth five minutes. Voting machines were In general use In Buffalo for tho second or third time, con sequently there was no trouble In register ing tho vole and greater promptitude was shown In delivering tho result of oach vot ing district at tho city hall. Tho method pursued Is thus detailed by the Express. "The couriers who carried tho special re turns for tho press from tho booths to the city hall made splendid tlmo and, while the first return wan not In qulto so soon as the first return last year, tho last one was In over half nn hour earlier than the last ono last year. All but two districts were heard from at tho city hall beroro 6:33 o'clock, or thlrty-flvo minutes after the polls closed. So speedy was tho work of the couriors, with ono exception, and the work of tho men at tho computing ma chlno In tho city hall that tho nfternoon papers wero nblo to break their provlous records by getting out a first edition that contained tho general results on tho prin cipal city nnd county officers about 6 o'clock, or about an hour after the polls closed, Tho arrangements mado by City Clerk Susdorf for tho quick transmission of the press returns from tho booths to tho city hall nnd by Superintendent W.

As tho Kngllsh law requires trustees to Invest funds only in certain classes of safo securities which bring n low rato of Interest, they found thoy had not tho necessary funds for the division. So they allowed tho Interest to accru'o and bo compounded and now have so large a cap ital that In a short tlmo they can begin making awards. They will then havo to decldo upon three girls between 16 and 23 years of ago whoso characters will bear strict Investigation nnd who will ho en abled to marry good, hard-working men to whom thoy aro engaged. Dowries for orphan girls are provided by another fund, mysterious In origin, which is distributed by tho acting governors of the Endowed Charities of St. Qcorge's-ln-tbo-Uast, London. This amounts to $560 every year and can bo divided as the trus tees see fit, with the aim of assisting as many girls as possible Tho benofits from It, however, never fall below $60 for each girl and often reach $160. None can re celvo aid from this fund until they can satisfy tho trustees that they are ablo to perform tho various duties of a house keeper, aro suited to make good home makers nnd nre In lovo with roon who aro stendy and Industrious.

The missing returns at that tlmo wero thoso of tho Second district of tho Twenty-fourth ward and the Fourth district of tho Fourth ward. Tho courier from tho Twenty-fourth ward district had the misfortune to lose his report when ho had got well started. Ho was obliged to return to his booth nnd make another copy. Even at that he made good tlmo, arriving at the hall at 6:41 o'clock. Tho missing return from the Fourth ward was not delivered until 6:33 o'clock. Tho courier who brought It blamed tho In spectors for not giving him tho figures sooner, but, apparently, It was a case of a courier who, falling to catch the figures when they wore announced, waited around In expectation that, tho Inspectors would attend to him presently nnd, finally, get ting tired of waiting, ventured to ask them for tho returns, which they promptly gave to him.

In France, where tho marriage of conven ience and tho natural Inclinations of the population mako matrimony and tho birth rato matters for careful study by tho state, a society' has been organized on tho linos of a building and loan association by which a muu or woman cun secure at small ex pense enough money to enable him or her to marry. It Is a sort of lnsuranco so ciety, conducted by a number of persons of whom M. Paul Bcschancl Is at present tho head. The members are artisans, young men or women, and each contributes 40 cents a month to Its support. Aftor n mem ber has mado such contribution for five years. In which tlmo he has paid $24, ho Is entitled to draw out $00. If two members desire to wed each othor they can thus get $180, which Is something of a windfall as dowries go, among French working people. But In Germany the matter has Its most unique development, for there, by tho will of a financier, prizes aro offered in bis native town for tho man who will marry the ugliest, tho most crippled ond the women over 40. This town Is Haschmann and the financier, realizing that beauty Is an attraction hard to overcome, provides that out of the Income of the fund not less than $80 shall go with tho ugliest girl In nny year and tho crlpplo shall rccelvo $60. The four women not under 40 who have been moro than onco Jilted by n lover re ceive, when funds permit, $40 each. But the trustees cun vary from this rulo to glvo largo rewards whenever nccossary to Induco someone to marry nn unusually ugly girl, or one whoso deformity Is nu especial drnwbnck. It docs not appear likely that such a sot of prizes will ever bo necessary In America, but there may bo room horo for some such organization as the French so ciety, In which young people may help each other to get nhoad.
