'THE LADIES HAD THEIR SAY. The Lucky Candidates—A Boy Drown- ed—O. F. Davis' Funeral—Court News—Two Exciting Runa- ways—Local Notes. The Board Election, The election for nine members of the board of education commenced yester- day morning at 8 o'clock, and continued with but little excitement up to the hour of 6 o’clock last night. The vote polled was light throughout the city. The polls , were held at the principal schools m all the wards, school having been adjourned for that purpose. The excitement incidental to elections was wanting in all the precinets. The notable feature of the contest was the interest displayed in the matter by ladies, the number of whom, however who deposited ballots being fewer than it was expected 1t would be. FIRST WARD, There was considerable activity at these polis, especially toward noon, when a strong effort was madein behalf of Conoyer. He received a num- ber of republican votes The teachers had a carringe labled to denote that it was intended for their use, although but one of them made her appearance at the polls up to noon. SECOND WARD, These polls were held at the Hartman school on Sixteenth street. There was little activity desplayed about them, the republican ticket bem.f worked with a great deal of success, by 8. J. Broderick, secretary of the Second ward club, and several others, The only noticeable scratching done was in favor of Conoyer who wasreceiving votes on all the tickets. There were no ladies present as workers, although twenty-one of them voted dur- ing the day. THE THIRD WARD, ‘There was an apparent lack of interest in the Third ward at least during the morning and tho early afternoon. The number of ward workers was much smaller than usual and those present found but few voters with whom they could labor. The ladies’ interests were guarded by two teachers who worked with a willand captured their share of the votes. THE FOURTH WARD, The ladies were out in full force in the Fourth ward. The polling place, at the high school was xllrrmm«hrd‘ by carriages and cabs which had been used to convey the ladies to and from the place of vot- ing. Two of the city teachers were on hand, and pluckily made an eftort to have something to do with the making up of every ballot that was cast. The la- dies exercised their right of franchise, almost without an exception, with ashow of intelligent action that many of the stronger sex could have well emulated. In many instances the ladies came with their votes already prepared. When this precaution had not been taken most of them made up their ballots before leav- ing their carriages, aided in almost every instance by the vivacious school ma'ms who were at. work in this ward. There was a marked opposition in this ward to Secretary Conoyer, on the pert of the ladies. ‘‘You can say,” said one young lady as she scratched the Secre- tary’'s name for an elderly lady, ‘‘thatif the devil was on the ticket I would vote for him in preference to Conoyer. All the teachers are after him.” Fully one of the votes were cast by the ladies. FIFTH WARD, The Fifth ward voting place was at the Lake school, near the new base ball park. Here, as elsewhere, the ladies took an interest in the vproceedings and accosted the approaching male eleo- tor with all the assurance of an old-time political worker. Of the votes cast ten were ladies. The fair partisans drove about in & hack gathering up votes, and went about with & Kamllul of tickets, scratched and pasted according to the way the would like to see the election carried. The ladies were much more active than their co-workers of the male persuasion, and earnestly besought the ladies to vote their tickets. SIXTH WARD. At noon fifty-nine votes had been cast at the sixth ward voting place, in the Long school building on King and Francklyn streets. About twenty of these votes were cast by ladies. The prinei- val the Long school took an _ active part 1n the canvass and electionered against Conoyer with considerable effect. A cnrriu}e Was pro- vidad by the ladies marked “Teachers" carriage,” and the ladies were driven to and fro in the conveyance. There was Iittle interest shown beyond that evinced by the female voters, who pleaded with yeteran partisans to put aside ancient traditions and yote independent of party. Whether it was due to the persuasive powers of the epposite sex or whether the veterans had come previously pre- pared to ignore party, certain it is that there was considerable scratching of the three tickets which were in the field, EIGHTH WARD, Shortly after the polls opened in the Eighth ward a bevy of [adics stormed the voting place, corner of Izara and Thir- tieth streets, and waited to deposit their ballots. hn{ were mude to wait until the judge could procure a copy of the new school law. * Up went a protest from the gulaxy of beauty. The ladies were indignant at this, as they termed it, out- l‘lfl:&olll endeavor to deprive them ot the right of sufirage. However, a printea . copy of the section was found, digestod and pasted at the 'fiofl. When it came to voting it was found that a number of the ladies be- longed 1n the Fourth and other wards. This occasioned another complaint, the fair voters saying they didn’t see why they could not vote in one place as well as another since they voted every where for the same men. Accustomed as the sex is to having its own way, the members there- of atthe Eighth polls had to go away to their own princinets. As elsewhere, the school teachers took ajhand in the election ering. But for the presenceof the women the election would have been so stupid that the judges would have been tempted to go home. NINTH WARD. There were few people at this precinet. The majority of these were republican, but a few being for the democratic ticket. A considerable number was deposited for the nonpartisan ticket Mr. Feltons name being substituted for that of Mrs. Dinsmoor, The most active workers at the polls which were held in the Farnam street school were several of the teachers of that school, among whom Miss Stillwell and Miss Allen. Several other ladies were working among the residences in the neighborhood, endeavoring to secure the votes of the moth- ers they found there. An instance of the work done by these wag exemplified by the achievement of Miss Stillwell, who saw a woman on the north side of the street. She started for her and brought her to the polls accom- panied as she was by about six children. A man who was with her and who sub- sequently turned out to be the stranger’s brother also deposited a ballot with the little woman. As the latter was about to deposit her vote, one of the bystanders asked: “Are you a lady of family?” Miss Stiliwell responded that such a question was superfluous, and this be- came the sentiment of those present when the heads of the little oncs were counted. One of the workers remarked that the woman did not scem more than twenty-one years of age, and to be the mother of such a family was something remarkable. 1treminded him of scenes in Utab, where young women with smaller sisters of theirs in their arms, accompanied their parents to the polls and used their brothers and sisters as evidence of motherhood, which en- titeled them to vote. ~As the reporter left the school an aged lady dressed in mourning drove up to the polls, and without allowing interference from any- body, deposited & non-partisan ballot. THE RESULT, Thetotal vote was an exceedingly light one. Thepolls closed at6 o’clock, and in most of the wards the vote had been counted at 8 o'clock. The total vote for ench candidate was as follows: F. W. Gray 2,19 . H. McClure 1,986, H. T. Clarke 1,872, Edward Parmalee 1 Morris Morrison 1,830, W. A, Kelley D. V. Sholes 1,758, S. K.

Of these, the nine first named, Messrs. Gray, Mc- Clure, Clarke, Parmalee, Morrison, Kel- ley, Sholes, Felton and Saville are duly elected members of the new school board. RUNAWAY CARS, A Brace of Flights Which Narrowly Escaped Fatalities. Yesterday morning there was a series of runaways on Farnam street, such as never took place in this city before. When a short distance east of the brow of the hill coming east, the brake on the Park avenue car, No. 21, failed of effect upon the wheels because of the slippery condition of the track. The car was full of passengers and increased in velocity as it proceeded toward the base of the hill until its speed became remarkable. The people at the intersection of Fif- teenth street shouted at the drivers of vehicles as they ncared the corners and thus warned them of the wild car. At the time the runaway was discovered, & cur from the Twenti- eth street line stood facing east on Far- nam street. The driver was told of the danger of the car behind crashing into him, and whipped llt his horses into a run for more than a block to get out of the way. This car was crowded and as it flew past the Paxton three people jumped off and all were thrown violently to the ground, One of these was a lady employed 1 the Union Pacific head- quarters, who was earried into the office of the Chicago & Northwestern road by James Preston where restoratives were administered and Dr. Lee was sum- moned, The other two could not be found later. This car in its rapid rate of speed frightened the horses of one of Benzon's ice wagons and started them into a run which was stopped at Thirteenth street only by the horses pemng thrown on the corner and the wagon demolished. ‘The runaway car slided, after reaching the level street, as far as Fourteenth, About an hour later another car of the same line became unmanageable, slipped down the hill as did the other, without, however, being Attonded with any of the consequences above mentioned, because the street was comparatively clear of ve- hicles and pedestrians, Cottage colors ready for use in new and desirable shades.
