The city election yesterday resulted in Dr.
Don Macrae, the democratic nominee, being
re-elected mayor by a majority of 1RB over
William F. Sapp. the republican candidate.
The republicans elected six out of the eight
councllmen, treasurer, auditor, solicitor and
park commissioner. The democrats elected
the city engineer, assessor, superintendent
of markets and two councllmen.
Much Scratching of Ballots.
As had been expected, there was a great
deal of scratching on both sides in all of
the precincts. On the straight tickets a
rough eslmate gave Sapp. republican can
date for mayor. 26 majority over Macrae.
Despite the Inclemency of the weather, a
large vote, as hud been expected, was
polled. Both parties worked hard the en
tire day, but there was little excitement
around any of the voting places, although
there was the usual number of men who
waited until the last to cast their ballots.
Two special officers were placed at each
polling place and the absence of whisky
tended to keep matters quiet and orderly.
When members of the Federation of Im
provement Clubs learned that the police
had failed to stretch ropes to indicate the
"dead" '.ine, they had a circular printed
attacking the administration. These circu
lars were turned over to the republican city
central committee with the request that
they be distributed at t lip various polling
places, but this Chuirman Hss declined to
do. In place of ropes Chief Richmond had
the "dead" line marked off on the sidewalk
and the officers were instructed to see that
no lobbying- was done within the prescribed
distance. As fur as known these Instruc
tions were faithfully carried out by the
special officers.
Charges of Ine of Money.
Ill the Sixth ward former City Detective
Dan Li. Welr democratic precinct commit
teeman, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff
Woolman on the charge of paying money
to a voter. Weir denied the churge and
asserted that he had simply paid a man
whom he had engaged a week before for
work done on registration days. Wei wus
subsequently released and no complaint was
tiled. In the First ward Joseph Lidgett.
icpublican candidate for ward Councilman,
was ulso accused of paying money for votes,
but he insisted that lie was merely paying
two men for work they had done for him
and not for voting. Ts'o compluint wus filed
but these two arrest In th early part of
the day had a tendency to prevent any buy
ing of votes openly. at or near the polling
places.
At every pulling place both parties hud
a number of oarriages in service and thej
were used in bringing voters from ami
buck to their places of business the entire
day.
The saloons, with but few exceptions,
obeyed the law and kept tlieir doors closed
until the polls closed in the evening and
the result was noticeable.
The Interest shown in the election was
demonstrated In the evening by the hun
dreds of inquiries by telephone at The Bee
office. One man was kept busy in The Bee
office answering telephone Inquiries until
late at night. There were also large crowds
around the other newspaper offices, the
democratic headquarters and other places
where returns were received.

fhnm This (II).
Kverett Kd wards, who was arrested last
week in Omaha at the request of the au
thorities of Kearney, Neb., where he was
wanted to answer to a charge of being
responsible for the death of Miss Anna
Orosh. a waitress of that city who died
as the result of a criminal operation, was
up to a short time ago a resident of
Council Bluffs. His right name is Ev
erett Jensen and he was born and raised
in this city. His rather, who Is well-to-do,
lives in the south part of the city.
Jensen In May, 14. obtained notoriety
by deserting his young wife and two chll
dren In this city and eloping with his
sister-in-law. Jensen, who win married
to a young woman named Bessie Fergu
son, also of this city, became infatuated
with his sister-in-law, Fannie Ferguson,
a younger sister of his wife. One day
Jensen and the young woman were missing.
They were traced to Kansas City, ar
rested and brought back to Council Bluffs
by Chief of Police Richmond.
Chief Richmond found Fannie Ferguson
in Kunsas City, where, with her infant
child, she occupied a small room, the
rent of which was paid by Jensen.
Jensen, who went In Misourl under the
name of Kverett Edwards, was found at
Mayvlew. Mo., where he -was engaged In
canvassing for the sale of a Sunday
school publication. He was In a Sunday
school when found by Chief Richmond.
He made no objection to arrest, and
agreed to return without resistance to this
ri'ity- i
After being In Jail some time Jensen suc
ceeded In compromising matters with his
wire and was not prosecuted. Iater his
wife secured a divorce from him.
Jensen was formerly employed as a fire
man on the Milwaukee railroad. The Iden
tity of Edwards was made known yester
day when an officer from Omaha called
at the young man's home In this city to
secure a valise belonging to him.
Hev, Mr. Starr Talks on Divorce.
Rev. H. W. Slarr, rector of St. Paul's
F.piscoial church, addressed the Council
Bluffs Pastors' association yesterday morn
ing on the subject of Divorce." After
-muting statistics from the court records
here and elsewhere showing the increase
of divorces and the generul prevalence of
the practice, he declared that the scriptural
conception of marriage and divorce should
be the only one recognized by the church
and the marriage tie should be one to be
divorced by nothing but death except for
tho one ground recognised by the scrip
tures. He usked the association to subscribe to
the position of the international conference
adopted at its meeting in Philadelphia
about a year ago, that they should refuse
to remarry divorced persons except those,
divorced for the one cause of adultery
and these only after a lapse of one year
from the date of the divorce.
The associat'on deferred action on the
proMisition until lis next meeting.

She broke out all over her body with

sores, and her little face was being
eaten a way;. her ears looked as if they
would drop off. Neighbors advised ma
to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
before I had used half of the cake of

all healed, and my little one's face and
