THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1913.
REPUBLICAN YICTOR IN MAINE
John A. Peters Chosen to Fill Va
cancy in Third District.
SLUMP IN PROGRESSIVE VOTE
Full Off About Fifty Per Cent from
thnt filven Ilooievelt llourbon
Attrlbnten the nenult to
Trenchery.
POUTIiAND, Me,( Sept. 3-Speaker John
A. Petera. republican of Ellsworth, was
chasen to fill the vacancy In the third
congressional district yesterday by a
plurality of 653 over Mayor William A.
Pattangall, democrat, of Watervllle, with
Edward M. Lawrence of Lubcc, a poor
third in the race.
Returns in this special election from
all but a small Island plantation gave:
Peters, 15.106; Pattangall, 14,653; Law
rence, 6,687.
The vote, for president In November
was: Wilson, 14,692; Roosevelt, 13,236;
Taft, 7,159.
Moose Vote Falla Off.
The progressive vote showed a falling
off of about 60 per cent front that given
Colonel Roosevelt last November. On tho
other hand the Peters' vote was 108 per
cent greater than the Taft vote, while
tho Pattangall and Wilson vote showed
very little variation.
Mr. Pattangall, the democratic candi
date, gave out the following statement:
"From the returns I should Judge that
Mr. John A. Peters was elected to con
gress from this district by a safe plural
ity. Tho result should not bo construed
as a rebuke to the national administra
tion. It Is wholly to be attributed to
democratic treachery. Because certain
men failed of success in the primaries
they deliberately sacrificed the party In
this election. The democracy of Maine
Is loyal to President Wilson and will
present a. united front in the next four
years campaign."
Gardner Makes Statement.
Halbert P. Gardner, member of the
progressive national committee of Maine,
said tonight:
"The returns Indicate the, election of
John A. Peters in tho Third district. We
bad no money. Lack of funds hampered
the progressive working organization and
prevented proper publicity. It is evident
that the voters of the Third district are
absolutely opposed to the policies of the
democratic party."
Democrats Disappointed.
WASHINGTON, Sept 9. Returns from
the Malno congressional election were
awaited here with extraordinary interest
by the leaders of all parties. The demo
crats, who had sent Secretary Bryan,
Speaker Champ Clark and othor notable
came that their man was defeated. Pres
ident Wilson waited for the returns until
late in the night.

handed - the nurse a nice fat little boy
baby. Then he came back with another
little boy, and he grinned and asked me
if I wanted another. I said 'sure and

little girl-baby, and, say 1 Tea, they're
all healthy and the mother is doing well.1

WEARER OF X-RAY GOWN
FREED BY TUCSON COURT

Simpson's request for a Jury of women

of. Special Assistant Attorney General
Theodore Roche is granted. Roche an
nounced today that he would nsk for a
continuance of both cases until Monday
on the ground that the Harrla-Dlggs caie

wceK and he wishes to have all thi
cases completed before sentence Is pro
nounced on any of tho trio.
Tho government prosecutors will not
nsk that a charge be pressed ' against
Juror Helster for contempt for saylnir
at the trial that he did not consider
Camlnettl guilty and merely voted so to
save attorney fees for tho culprit's par
ents.
The prosecutors point out that public
contempt will bo Heister's punishment
and that a Jury cannot Impeach Its own
verdict, so that the Juror's statement will
not help the defenso to get a new trial.

New Denn for Iovra Dental College.
IOWA CITY, Ia., Sept. S.-(SpecIal.)-
The significance of the notion of the
State Board of Education In holding up
appointments to the faculty of the Dental
college at the (State university here be
came clear today when Dr. Thomas J.
McLornon of Philadelphia was . named
dean of the collego at -n meeting of the
faculty committee of the board. Dr. Mc-
Lemon will succeed Dr. William Suits
Hosford, who has held the position for
twenty years.
Key to tho Situation Beo Advertising.
Brush this through faded, lifelcoa
locks and ytey become aaric,
glossy, youthful.
Hair that loses Its color and lustre, or
when It fades, turns gray, dull nnd life
less, Is caused by a lack of sulphur In the
hair. Our grandmother made up a mix
ture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep
her locks dark and beautiful, and thou
sands of women and men, who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade of
hair which Is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mixture
by asking at any drug etoro for a 51
cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sago and Sul
phur Hair Remedy," which darkens the
hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell It has been applied. Be
sides, It takes off dandruff, stops scalp
Itching and falling hair. You Just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with It and draw
through your hair taking ono small
strand at a time. By morning the gray
hair disappears; but what delights the
ladles with Wyeth's Sago and Sulphur Is
that, besides beautifully darkening the
hair after a few applications, It also
brings bark the gloss and lustre and gives
It an appearanco of abundance.
