A FITTING FINISH Play Festival Brings Successful S n dow 1o Close—Miss Rearden Stricken With Illness—Athletic Results. With a program fitting for the oc- casion, the season of 1916 of the city playgounds was brought to a close Saturday afternoon, before a larg gathering of admirers of the children, and the applause which accompanied each event was very generous. The Philharmonic band with E. J. Lynch, rendered one of the noted concerts which the band is capable, this being one of the brght features of the after- noon. Everything worked off very smooth- ly, the director and his capable assist- ants having the program well in hand. One thing that slightly marred the afternoon’s pleasure was sudden ill- ness of Miss Martha Rearden, danc- ing teacher, who was removed from the midst ities to her A. It was \vl[hl | % keen disappointment that this oc- curred both to Miss Rearden and her co-workers for the fruits of the e cellent training given the children during the season by Miss Rearden was evinced by their work Saturday afternoon.

M 25¢ 284 MAIN STREET FOR MEN AND WOMEN UNCH WILSON'S ENEMY Golquitt Administration Critic, Loses Primary by 75,000 Votes ‘Washington, Aug. 28.—Administra- tion officials are jubilant over the vic- tory of Senator Charles A. Culberson in the Texas senatorial primaries. A telegram which the White 1id that Culberson’s majori 75,000. The joy of President Wil- the outcome is that Governor Colquitt, who was defeated by Senator Culberson had made criti- cism of the administration’s Mexican policy the basis of his main appeal to tho voters. The primary was the second held to andidate for senator, ein ralent to clection In the first primary Govern- Colquitt led, with Senator Culber- son sccond. As no candidate received came to choose a ¢ or a majority of the votes cast, it was necessary, under the law, to have a second primary. Ate the time Gov- ernor Colquitt got the preference in the first primary it was contended that the Texas democrats had given Presi- dent Wilson a ‘“‘black eye,” as the gov- ernor had attackeq him, while Senator Culberson was represented as standing by the president in his Mexican pol- icy. The telegram received at the White House follows: “We estimate final total Texas elec- tion: Culberson, 177,000; Colquitt, 102,000, a majority of 75,000 for Cul- berson. Colquitt carried only twenty- three counties, as against 114 in July, and in this election only twenty-three counties out of a total of 256, Colquitt was defeated in every section of the state; lost every large county, every large city. Counties in which he had resided all went against him.’ Senator Culberson issued a state- ment Saturday in which he sald his election carried with it an indorsement of the national democracy. Several telegrams came to the White House from friends of the president and Senator Culberson expressing grat- ification over the senator’s renomina- tion for another term. Senator Culber- 1 took no part in the primary cam- . Mr. Tumulty, the president’s secre- tary, received a telegram from Texs saying that Senator Culberson hg carried every county bordering d Mexico, with the possible exception ¢ Brewster, by majorities of about fi to one. Austin, Tex., Aug. 28.—With ag proximately 250,000 out of a total about 270,000 votes that were cast fd candidates for United States senate § Saturday's state democratic primai accounted for, Senator <Culberson leading ex-Governor Colquitt by abos 75,000 majority. It is belleved thd Culberson’s majority will reach 86 000. The overwhelming defeat of Co! quitt s regarded as American victo as he was solidly supported by German element. Culberson’s renom! nation is also regarded as a prg nounced indorsement of the adminid tration of President Wilson. Colqut attacked Wilson's administration being the greatest failure in the hig tory of the country. LOUIS E. STANTON DEAD.
