Bryan Loses Nearly Every Northern State. Exceptions Are Colorado, Montana and Nevada. MAJORITY IN OHIO. McKinley Carries His Own State by 80,000. Election returns show an overwhelm ing victory for McKinley and tha Re publicans. Bryan appears to have carried few States outside the southern states. Kan sas, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York and practically all the northern states are in the Republican column. Nebraska is close and in doubt. SEW YORK. New York, Nov. 7. Election returns received this morning 'indicate that the Republicans have carried, New York State by about 146.000 and that the Dem ocrats have carried Greater New York by about 27,500. This furms one of the surprises of the campaign, for the rea eon that the Republican chairman and candidate for governor, Mr. Odell. had claimed the state in his ante-election es timates by only 100,000. and the Repub licans generally have been willing to concede that Mr. Bryan would carry Oreater New York by at least 50.000. The Democrats claimed that Bryan would carry New York by from 80.000 to 90.000. Richard Croker sent Mr. Bryan a tel egram informing him that though the state had gone heavily Republican, New York county, which in 1S9S gave Mc Kinley 2:1.000 plurality, had been carried by the Democratic electors by 33,000. a gain of 56,000. Mr. Croker was also quoted as saying: "No power on earth nothing: but his death can prevent Mr. Bryan from re maining the national leader of the peo ple." Detailed returns have not been re ceived on governor as yet, but it is known that the entire Republican state ticket has been elected and that the Re publicans have made pains In both liouseB of tha ptate legislature. Mr. Stanchfield, the Democratic nominee frr covernor, ran ahead of his ticket in the southern tier and in Brooklyn, but on the other hand Odell oarried some of the up-state counties by pluralities larger than the Republican presidential electors received. The Republicans gained sev eral members of congress from this Ftate, but the official count may be re quired to decide in one or more close districts. NEBRASKA. Omaha. Neb., Nov. 7. Result In Ne braska close; Democrats claim Bryan carries it by 3,0' 0 to 4.000; Chairman Ltndsey of the Republicans, claim Mc Kinley carries it by 5.0O0. Many back reoincts to hear from; Democratic state ticket believed elected by vote running Ahead of Bryan; legislature is in doubt. Otnaha. Neb., Nov. 7. The result of th election in Nebraska is still in doubt this morning:. About 525 precincts out f t 1.611 have been heard from, and these r-how very substantial Republican gains. The Republicans claim they will give McKinley a majority and the Democrats tire equally sure of the result. The changes, however, have been so diver sified, that it is well nigh impossible to make an estimate. V"irh a corresponding result in the un roported precincts to those already re ceived McKinley will have a small plu rality. The leglslaturs is also uncertain. In the close counties out in the state the Jiepublicans have made material gains. In Douglas county, which is the largest essembly district in the state, the count wi'l not be completed until late today, p.nd the Democrats say the missing pre cincts, which are in South Omaha, will t-leet the fusion legislature candidates f:i this district. The stale Democratic ticket is running slightly ahead of Bryan. Robinson, fusionist. for con gress, probably elected in Third district. Chairman Edmiston of the Populist Ftate central committee telephoned from Lincoln at 10:30 o'clock that Bryan would have a plurality in the state of about 5.000, with the state ticket run ning close to these figures. Returns How coming from South Omaha indicate the election of the fusion delegation to the legislature which will in all prob ability determine the complexion of that body. The latest totals en the national ticket are from 4ei2 precincts outside of Omaha and oRuglass count v which give McKinley 42.9S3; Bryan 40.L.19. The tame precincts in ISSij gave Mc Kinley 37.214; Bryan 40.C46. showing a net Republican gain of Z.liS. The total vote of the state is about 210.000. Omaha, Neb., Nov. 7. Following con gressmen elected in Nebraska: first district Burkett, Republican; Second, Mercer, Republican; Sixtl, Neville, fusion. Robinson, fusion, and Shellenbarger. fusion, probably elected In Third ana Fifth districts, respectively, with the Fourth district in doubt. Omaha, Nov. 7. The later returns do not materially change the indications of this morning's reports from the state and there is considerable doubt which way the state will go on the national ticket. On the legislative ticket, which is now the center of interest, the indi cations favor the fusion delegation in Douglass county with good chances out in the state. The next legislature elects two United States senators. MASSACHUSETTS. Boston, Nov. 7. The plurality In this city of 8.406 for Bryan, with one pre cinct to be h,ard from, came as the surprise of the election In Massachu setts. Bryan polled throughout the city 44.813 votes; that is, 14.9S9 more votes than he received four years ago. This is a gain of about 50 per cent, for the Democratic presidential candidate. Mc Kinley's support numbered 36.347 which was a loss of approximately 24 per cent, over ISStf, when he received 47,922 votes. Bryan ran very strongly in Republican wards, and seemed to lose in several Democratic wards. President McKinley has carried the state by about 80,000 plurality, a reduc tion of nearly a hundred thousand from that of four y-ars ago. The Republi cans have elected ten congressmen, a few by increased plurality over 1S96, but in the majority of the districts their can didates ran behind lSl'S. While the total vote for governor was behind that given the national candidate, W. M. Crane was re-elected by a larger plurality than that received by President McKinley. The Republican vote showed a net loss of about 15 per cent. Boston. Nov. 7. The vote of Massa chusetts, returns having been received from every city and town, is as follows McKinley 233.495; Bryan 156,507. V, te for governor Crane 219,S29;Paine 121.15S. Tiie Republicans elected 10 out of 13 congressmen and the present delegation remains politically unchanged. The Re publicans made heavy gains in the house; the senate stands 31 Republicans aud 9 Democrats, same as last session. VIRGINIA. Richmond, Vs., Nov. 7. Virginia's majority in favor of Bryan is apparently about 20,000. The majorities on the con Kreional ticket will aggregate more than this. The indications are that certainly nine ard probably all of the Democratic can didates for congress are elected. The Ninth district is the only one in doubt, and the chances there are in favor of the Democrats. Thre has been no dis turbance of any kind in the state. Richmond, Va, Nov. 7.- A recapitula tion fur Virginia indicates a Democratic plurality on the presidential ticket of over 30,0013 and the election of the Dem ocratic candidate in every congressional district. In nearly all the cities and towns and many of the counties Bryan ran behind the congressional ticket. Richmond, Va,, Nov. 6. Actual and estimated pluralities give the. state to Bryan by upwards of 30,000. TEXAS. Houston, Tex., Nov. 7. The Demo cratic state ticket headed by Joseph D. Sayers for governor is elected by a ma jority In excess of 100.000. The legisla ture is almost solidly Democratic. It will elect Joseph W. Bailey United States senator to succeed Horace Chil ton. It is estimated that the majority of the Bryan electors will not fall short of 175,000, and may go beyond that fig ure. WISCONSIN. Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 7. Complete returns from Milwaukee county give McKinley a plurality of 8,973. and La Follette," Republican, for governor, a plurality of about the same figures. The returns from the ptate at large will not be known for pome time in detail, but a fair approximate shows that the Repub licans will have a plurality of at least 110,000. All the Republican congressmen are elected and the legislature ia over whelmingly Republican. ILLINOIS. Chicago, Nov. 7. Chairman Rowe, of the Republican state central committee, after reading a mass of telegrams piled on his desk, this morning declared his belief that Richard Yates, for governor, would have a majority in Illinois equal to that on the national ticket. The re turns early today make McKinley's plu rality lOO.oOO in the state, but the Demo crats are not disposed to concede any such majority for Yates over Samuel Alsehuler, the Democratic candidate. The returns from the congressional dis tricts up to a late hour indicated the election of 12 Republicans and 10 Dem ocrats. Chicago, Nov. 7. Congressman Wm. Lorimer of the Second district conceded his defeat this morning. The majority against him may reach 1.500. The Re publicans claim the official count will be necessary to decide the result in Con gressman Boutelie's district. Nothing on which to base definite statements has been received from the Fifteenth and Twentieth districts and the county chairman of those districts have been wired to hasten returns. Additional returns received at Repub lican state headquarters this morning from all over the slate confirm Chair man Rowe in his statement that Mc Kinley's plurality will run close to 100, 000 and that of Yates for governor be tween 70.000 and 80,000. At Democratic state headquarters, while Yates' elec tion is conceded Secretary Nelson claims his plurality will not exceed 25,000. NEW JERSEY. Newark, N. J., Nov. 7. According to returns received by the Evening News. Joshua H. Salmon. Democrat, for con gress, is re-elected in the Fourth dis trict by about 2,200 plurality. SOUTH DAKOTA. Sioux Falls, Nov. 7. The latest re turns received seem to confirm the claim cf the Republican state central commit tee the state for McKinley over 10.000 plurality and that the entire Republican state and congressional ticket has been elected by safe majoiities while the Re publican majority of nearly 20 in the legislature will insure the election of a Republican to succeed United States Senator Pettigrew. MICHIGAN. Detroit. Mich., Nov. 7. At 2:30 this morning the Tribune's table of results, with only Wayne county missing, gives McKinley 63.0o7 majority in Michigan. As Wayne county has gone Republican the majority will be increased when its vote is counted. There has been a veritable Republl- tContinued on Third Pase.) I i I J V I lx I ?v'X'- I I S 7 ft t n st I Re-Elected For Four Years More as the Head STOCKS BOOM. Railroads and Industrials Went Up With a Hush. New Tork, Nov. 7. The stock market opened with excited tendency and an up ward bound of prices. The movement waa anticipated in the American department in Iondon, -where prices rose buoyantly over Monday's level, after having been rather acutely depressed, while the New York stock exchange was closed. The opening- deals in many stock quotations were wide, simultaneous prices being paid at a variation of as much as r-? point3. First sales ran as high as 8.000 shares in Atchison, which was quoted at o4:t4tf 32. compared with 33 on Monday. Pen.i svlvania jumped 2Vi a.id New York Cen tral l-V A number of other railroad stocks rose from 1 to 1H. Prices in the Industrial department were even more buoyant, especially in the steel stocks. Gains in that group ran as high as 4 poixits in Natii mal Tube.. Tobaccj ad vanced 42, Continental T-bacco 2'j and Manhattan 2 points. There were sharp reactions immediately after the opc.in running to a point in a few industrial?. Trading continued very animated and broadly distributed. In Union Pacil. the excitement was so great that opening quotations were almost lost, 15,000 shares being traded in in the rpening dealings. The quotation was G5 to Si1? compared with on Mndnv. PRICES JUMP IX IX)XLMJX. London, Nov. 7. The iniiial scenes on the stock exchange were a repeti tion of the wild excitement of 180t. perhaps ex ceeding it. Dealings in Americans com menced as early at i o'clock, members coming up betimes with the view of cele brating Mr. McKinley's success and anti cipating New York enthusiasm. Prices jumped up several points and then there was a set back, but by the timo the nor mal business hours arrived the market was again enthusiastic, business was de cidedly brisk and prices were moving wildly. Altogether it was one of the most exciting scenes in the house for some time. THEO. ROOSEVELT, I- mill wil-mr ii-. r.rf -,i ..r.i, t --'T y VVho Has Been Elected to the w-y-'-'ran rf niini.'. t. PEOPLE HEARD. State Journal Bulletins Anxiously Awaited and Eagevy Received, An Immense crowd heard and saw the bulletins In front of the State Journal of fice last night and it was an enthusiastic and good natured assemblage. State Journal reporters visited one pre cinct after another and the progress of the counting was promptly reported by telephone and then announced to the anx ious people. The count In the city was very slow owing to the size and complication of the ballot, but the people were patient and as the barometer went up and down they cheered for their favoriies. The Associated Press bulletins early made it clear that McKinley had won. bu t the people did not lo;;e interest and the returns from the different states were attentively listened to. Per the first time the State Journal tried the double system o( bul.etins. As soon as the news was received it was read to the listeners by George Hungate, wh his a voice that makes the use of a mega phone unnecessary. The bulletins wep then transferred to lantern slides Prd shown on a canvass by R, H.. Baker. The result was satisfactory. The crowd wa on? of the largest ever attracted by bullet" ns in T pek i and there was never a more orderly cro .vd. It was after midnight when the last man went home. mmiTi OF 54 Claimed by Republicans in Next National House. Washington, Nov. 7. Representative Ijoudenslag'er, of New Jersey, secretary of the Republican congressional com mittee, at 10 o'clock this morning claimed the election of 204 Republicans to the next house, a majority over all of 51. The Democratic congressional headquarters were practically deserted Second Place in the Nation. :.c--.. -1 fris?; of the Government. at 10:30 o'clock. Chairman. Richard son had not put in appearance and hi3 lieutenants had stopped figuring. They concede, however, that the next house wlil be safely Republican, but declined to estimate the Republican majority. BRYAN IS SILENT. Wants Full Returns Before Making a Statement. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 7. Mr. Bryan said this morning that he would not make any statement as to the result of the election until later. He gave as his rea son for ndt making a statement at this time that he had received no new in formation today and said he desired to have as complete returns as were pro curable before announcing any con clusions. He therefore declined to make even a verbal statement for publication. He has, however, no doubt as to the re ports of defeat and in private conversa tion with friends admits that further delay in the public announcement of his acceptance of the result is a mere mat ter of form. He is not buildins any hopes upon later returns and evidently in all ways except by word of mouth, concedes practically all that the Re publicans claim. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were in cheerful mood today. Mr. Bryan said he had slept well last night and felt In excellent health. Referring to his plans for the immediate future, he expressed a determination to take a good rest. "I shall not even attempt to answer letters for the present," he said, "but will postpone that duty for a few days. I am not exhausted at all," he added, "but I have had plenty to do for several months and will take it easy for a time." WELCOME RVKINLEY. Eelis Ring and Whistles Blow at Alliance, Ohio. Alliance, O., Nov. 7. President Mc Kinley passed through here this after noon en route to Washington, and the populace turned out en masse to greet him. Fire bells and shop whistles join ed in the welcome. QUAY PULLS THROUGH Ha "Will Have 17 More Votes Than He Needs. Philadelphia, Nov. 7. Returns from the senatorial and legislative districts of Pennsylvania indicate that M. S. Quay will have not less than 145 votes on joint ballot for United States sen ator, 17 more than the number necessary to elect. Of the 204 members of the house the Democrats have elected less than 50. as against 71 straight-out Dem ocrats two years aero. The anti-Quay Republicans will prob ably not muster over 50 votes of Uie 256 on joint ballot. WOLCOTT IS DOOMED. Fusionista Have Large majority in Colorado Legislature. Denver. Nov. 7. The fusionists will have a large majority on joint ballot in the legislature. According to the re turns received ur to 12:ao p. m., the fusionists will have '20 members of the senate and the Republicans five and of the 55 members of the house, sixteen axe conceded to the Republicans. Weather Indications. Chicaeo, Nov. 7. For Kansas: Prob ibly fair tonight and Thursday;variable winds. is Won by m U la 26,000 Plurality. Elect All Conaressmen Willi a Possible Exception. LEGISLATURE SAFE. Republican on Joint Ballot Without a Doubt. Populist Committee Concedes Everything But Jackson. STANLEY IS WELL UP Will Not Be More Than 5,000 Behind McKinley. Democratic Message of Con gratulation is Received. Based on returns received up to 11 o'clock today, the indications are that the Republicans have carried Kansas by a majority now aggregating from 24,000 to 26,000. The same returns indicate that the Re publicans, will have at least 17, and prob ably 25, on. joint ballot in the legislature, thereby insuring the election of a. lie publican United States senator and. a Republican state printer. The Republicans also seem to have re-elected their congressmen in tha First, Second, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh districts. The returns have been slow coming' from the Third congressional district, but those which have been received do not held out much hope for the election of George W. Wheatley, the Republican nominee. The Populist state committee officials concede the election of the Republican, ticket and admit the loss by the fu sionists of the legislature uid congres sional districts, except the Third. There GOV. W. E. STANLEY. the Populists believe A. M. Jackson, the fusion nominee, will win. The first important admission by Democrats was made this morning by David Overmyer in the Populist head quarters. He said: "We're gone up." Officers of the Populist state commit tee accept the returns received by the Republicans as authentic and do not dis pute the Republican claim of big major ities all over the state. Privately, but not for publication, the officers of the Populist committee ad mit that they have been defeated. One reason why the Populist commit tee does nc-t look for future encouraging developments is the fact that practi cally no returns are coming to them. On the other hand, telegrams from all over the state are going to Republican headquarters as fast as operators can take th'-m from the wires and messenger boys deliver them. Fifty telegrams in an hour at Repub lican headquarters this forenoon showed heavy Republican gain3 in Kansas. In Rice county four years ag j Bryan had .a majority of two. MrKinley has carried the county by at least 4'jO. Stan ley is close to McKinley. Governor Stanley has defeated Mr. Bn-identhal, undoubtedly, but Stanley will probably be 5,000 behind McKinley in the state. Superintendent Church of the Insur ance department is running ahead of his ticket in pome places while in others Webb McNall swms to be the whole thing. The Republicars will not admit that there is any possible show for Mc Nall's election, however. V.'hile McNall has been the recinient of many Republican votes, the immense majoiity now in sight for the Republi cans, will bury the ex-superintendent of insurance along with the rest of the fu sion ticket. Attorney Gfneral Godard on the Re publican ticket will probably, on the face cf present returns, lie the low man on tne RfH'ubiiran ticket. However, JM'fBMmWli, there Is at this time, no, reason to be lieve that he wlil not pull through a-long with the rest of tha ticket.

TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 7, 1900. A LAW UNTO HIMSELF. Every Man Must Be That, to Re tain His Health and Digestion. There are thousands of people in this world who eat no meat from one year's end to another, and certain savage tribes in Africa and Bolynasia are al most exclusively meat eaters; but w hile there are thousands of these, there are millions who live upon a mixed diet of meat, vegetables and grains and if num bers is a criterion it would seem that a mixed diet is the best for the human lamily. The fact that you -will find many veg etarians who appear healthy and vig orous and meat eaters equally so, and any number of robust specimens who eat both meat and vegetables and any thing else that comes their way all goes to show that the old saw is the true one, that every man must be a law to him self aa to what he shall eat and drink. To repair the waste of tissue in brain (workers as well as to replace the muscle and sinew of the laborer, can only be done through the process of digestion. Every nerve, muscle, sinew, every drop of blood is extracted from the food we eat and digest. In these days of hustle and worry, and artificial habits of life, scarcely one per son in a thousand can lay claim to a perfect digestion; dyspepsia is a national (UTliction and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab Jets a national blessing. Most cases of poor digestion are caused by failure of the stomach to secrete sufficient gastric juice, or too little Hydrochloric acid and lack of peptones and all of these important essentials to perfect digestion are found ia Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in con venient palatable form. One or two of these tablets taken af ter meals insure perfect digestion and assimilation of the food. Cathartic piils and laxative, medicines have no affect whatever in digesting food and to call such remedies a cure for dyspepsia is far fetched and absurd. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain fsepsin free from animal matter, diastase end other digestives, and not only digest all wholesome food but ter.d to increase the flow of gastric juices and by giving the weak stomach a much needed rest bring about a healthy condition of the digestive organs and a normal appe tite. Nervous, thin blooded, run-down peo ple should bear in mind, that drugs and stimulants cannot furnish good blood, Btrong muscles and steady nerves; these come only from wholesome footl, thor oughly digested; a fifty cent box of Stuart's Tablets taken after maals for a few weeks will do you more real good than drugs, stimulants and dieting combined. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is probably the safest, most popular and successful digestive on the market and sold by druggists everywhere in the United Btates, Canada and great Britain.

Cresceus Ranks Well With Several New Marks. ABBOT'S MILE 2:03 1-4 It Stands Out as the Premier Performance. He Approached the Goal by Steady Advances. New Tork, Nov. 7. The harness race horse, typically an American product, haa completed the first century of his history. It was in 1806 that Tankee trotted a mile in 2:59 at Harlem, N. Y this being the first authentic record of a mile covered in less than three inin utes by a horse'in harness. The end of the century has arrived, but the two minute trotter is still in the future. Still, the two-minute harness horses ap peared in 1897, when Star Pointer paced in 1:594, and the closing year of the cycle "haa witnessed a wonderful pass ing away of old records and the estab lishment of new ones of the first mag nitude. Looking back over th? work of 1900 two names loom up inio monumental prominence those of The Abbot and of Cresceus. At the beginning- of the season it was generally conceded that if any trotter had a chance to beat Alix's. world's record of 2:03, which had remained seeming-ly a stone wall across the path of trotting progress for five years, it was I he Abbot. He had never Deen condi tioned for extreme efforts against the watch, but his wonderful performances in his races, his marvelous flights of soeed and his gameness argued that with a speoial preparation he rnignt suc ceed. The opportunity was at last accorded him. and a new world's record was the result. He approached the goal by steady advances first zMo-h, then 2:04, then 2:i-t. and lastly, at Terre Haute, Ind., Sept. 25, 2:034. In the interim he stepped aside for a trial to the wagon record, and at Hartford. Conn., Sept.. t, reduced it at the first trial from 2:0'JVi to 2:0512. Of Cresceus it may oe said that his superiority was conceded, but not his supremacy. For three seasons be has been among the fastest stallions on the turf, and while his chances for the trot ting championship among entire horses were well considered, such record break ing form as he displayed surpassed the expectations of even, his most sanguine admirers. Not only did he reduce Di rectum's long impregnable record, 9:054, which had stood for six years, first to 2:04 and then to 2:04, but in the season he established no less than five other world's records. At Cleveland, O., July 23, he won the fastest two-heat race ever trotted in 2:07, 2:06. At Columbus, O., he won the fastest three-heat race ever trotted by a stallion, in 2:07, 2:06. 2:06. At Keadville. Mass., Septem ber 27, he won the fastest five-heat race ever trotted, taking the last three heats in 2:074. 2:07. 2:0$, after Charley Herr had taken the first two In 2:07. 2:074. At Toledo, O.. October 13, he reduced tha trotting record to sulky over a half-mile track from 2:104 to 2:0994, and that for a half-mile track to wagon from 2:15 to 2:13i. After The Abbot and Cresceus three other trotters claim consideration as recrod breakers in 1900 Lucile, Lord Derby and Boralma. Lucile, the won derful little mare In the private stable of C. K. G. Billings, of Chicago, won fame as a wagon performer, driven by her owner. At Washington Park Au gust 11 she was started to beat the mat inee record for amateur drivers, 2:09, held bv Temper, and trotted in 2:094. At Lexington, Ky., October 6, she start ed to beat these figures and trotted in 2:07, the world's record for amateur drivers, trotting, for a mare to wagon, and faster than any mare, trotted to sulky during the year. Lord Derby distinguished himself by breaking three world's records and equaling another in. one performance. At New Tork city September 10 he trotted three heats in 2:07, 2:07, 2:08. The average time of the three equals the rec ord made by Azote in 1S95 for the best three heats ever trotted by a gelding. The time of the first two, 2:07, is the best ever made by a 5-year-old gelding and the best ever made by a green trot ter the flrtst season in public. Boralma's feat consisted in equalling the record for 4-year-old trotting geldings, the 2:08 made by John Nolan in. 1S9S. This completes the tale of new "best on records" by the trotters in 1900. It has been a grand year for them. The pacers, however, have had more of an off year than for a decade past Star Pointer's retirement took the only two minute racer off the turf, and no suc cessor to him appeared. The best mile of the year was the 2:02 of Prince Alert at Cleveland. O., July 2S. which, how ever, was a world's record of its kind, as it was the fastest heat ever paced by a gelding in a race. It was also at Cleveland July 24 that Coney reduced the record for 5-year-old pacing geldings to 2:02. John K. Gentry broke down early in the season, but not before he had broken a record. At Lima, O., July 4, he beat Joe Patchen, his time being 2:04. 2:06, the first heat being the fastest ever paced ia a. race over a half-mile track. WESTERN LEAGUE MEETING. Expected That Kansas City, Minneap olis and St. Paul "Will Be Taken In. St. Joseph, Mo., Nov. 7 Officials of the Western League of Baseball clubs will meet In Omaha today for the pur pose of arranging for the league meet ing to be held In Denver on November 2i. The Omaha conference will be at tended by Tebeau, of Denver, who will represent both the Denver and the Pu eblo teams; Bael, of Sioux City; Keith and Rourke. of Omaha; Runcie, of the St. Joseph club, and President Hickey", of the league.- One of the features of the Denver meeting, and possibly it may be touched upon at Omaha, i3 the attitude of the owners of the Des Moines fran chise towards the officers of the league. Kver since the close of the season Pres ident Hickey has been endeavoring to get from the Des Moines people the withheld scores of 34 games, in order to officially announce the standing of the league batters and fielders. Then, again, the language used by the Des Moines people towards other franchise owners ia said to have been rather severe and in some Instances libelous. An effort will be made to see that dis cipline is more of a feature of league affairs tha coming season than during the past. It is virtually settled that Kansas City, Minneapolis and St. Paul will be in the league the coming season. Either Pueblo or Des Moines will be dropped. The former point is not a good paying investment for the league, while the latter is responsible for nearly all of the trouble the league has met with during the entire season. The conduct of the owners of the Des Moines fran chise between now and the Denver meeting will decide her fate. KNOCKED OUT "Was a Man Who "Knocked" Corbett's Fight Id Hia Presence. New York, Nov. 7. In Corbett'9 cafe last night a young man known as Dr. Armstrong sought to convince a, party of friends that the recent Corbett-McCoy contest was not decided on its merits. Unfortunately for the doctor, Corbett was present in person. The young man was at a table in the rear room of the cafe. Corbett's back was toward him. "I tell you that the Corbett-McCoy fight was the clearest fake of the last ten years," said the doctor. Corbett turned and requested him to repeat the statement. "Yes, I'll tell you to your face that you are a faker," said the young man. Corbett executed a quick side step ajid was by the stranger's side. "In a minute I shall be obliged to slap you," remarked the ex-champion. The doctor suggested that Corbett would be easy money for him. Corbett landed a neat upper-cut that knocked the doctor off his feet. Then he took the doctor by the back of the neck and escorted him to the door and threw him into the street. RTAN-WALCOTT MILL.. They Will Box Before a Chicago Club This Pall. Chicago, 111., Nov. 7. It is now re ported that Tommy Ryan fights Joe Walcott at the Coliseum building late this fall or some time early in the win ter. The management is said to be a new one in the field and headed by a local politician named H. F. Johnson. Tom O'Rourke was wired recently and asked to pit Walcott against one of the big fellows here, and he answered that Walcott w as matched to meet Ryan in Chicago. Tattersalls were known to be dickering for the go, but had not yet signed the men. Ryan professed to know little of the plans. The promoters are said to have a castiron contract on the Coliseum and to have the pull essential to carry off a big go. Ryan is working daily for his go, and will take off about 20 pounds. Races In New York. New Tork, Nov. 7 A holiday crowd of good proportions thronged the grand stand and betting ring at the Aqueduct track today. It was a perfect fall day for an outing, but long and tiresome de lays at the post marred the sport. Favorites had a bad day, McAddie, at odds on, being the only one to pass the judges in front. Three second choices and two outsiders were the other win ners. Jockey Henry had a narrow escape from serious injury in the third race. He had the mount on the favorite, Millstream, and just after the start, as the boys were crowding for good posi tions. Millstream was pinched between Tyrehena and Charles Estes and went to his knees, throwing Henry, the Jockey landing on his head. The boy lay stun ned on the track, but revived shortly and walked to the paddock, escaping with a bad shaking up. Summary: First race 5 furlongs. Marlbert, 104 (Mitchell), 6 to 1 and 5 to 2, won: Gold Lane. 104 (Henry), 6 to 1 and 5 to 2. second: Huitzilopoehtli, 103 (Walsh), 12 to 1 and 5 to 1, third. Time, 1:084- Second race 5 furlongs.

Cincinnati, O., Nov. 7. After Lord Zeni won the fourth race at Latonia to day the judges suspended Jockey Boland indefinitely, who rode the horse in his last out. Boland, it is claimed, was re sponsible for Lord Zeni's defeat in the previous race. Jake Holtman took Colonel Jack Chinn's place as starter today and did splendid work with the flag. Holtman will start during the remainder of the meeting. Weather clear, track fast. Summaries; First race Six furlongs; selling. Ailanto, 108 (J. Winkfleld), 9 to 5, won; Lady Kent, 95 (J.

WILL REFURNISH ALL Eating Houses Now Conducted by Ohmer iiros., Placed Under Dining-Car Su perintendents' Supervision. The Rock Island company haa decided to itself manage all Its eating houses west of the Missouri river, which are now conducted by Ohmer Bros. The railroad company proposes to thoroughly refurnish all the eating houses and place them under the super vision of Frank Stewart, superintendent of the dining car department of the Rock Island. The dining car service, both east and west of the Missouri river, will be maintained at the present high standard. It Is not likely that any western rail road will follow the example of the Pennsylvania in making a uniform charge of $1 a meal on dining cars. The western roads were the first to adopt the a la carte plan and are satisfied that it pleases the traveling public best. Some roads, the Rock Island for one, serve lunches at a fixed price of 50 cents, but for all other meals the patrons of the dining car pay for what they order. On the Rock Island the 50 cent lunch eon is table d'hote. This feature has met with universal approval and seems to be just what the traveling public has been wanting. The service on Rock Is land diners has been famous for years. In Kansas there are eating houses along the Rock Island lines at McFar land, Belleville, Phillipsburg, Herington and Turon, to be taken in charge by the road itself by the new move. G. H. SAUNDERS PROMOTED. Succeeds C. L. Short as Trainmaster on Chicago Division. From the Newton Kansan. It was announced yesterday that G. H. Saunders had been appointed train master for the Chicago end of the East ern division and will depart, in all prob ability Wednesday evening, for his new field of labor at Chillicothe, 111. The an nouncement was met with genuine re gret by all parties concerned. He has beeti an employe of this division for 21 years, and has watched it grow from in fancy to one of the best divisions on the great Santa Fe system, embracing more territory than any of the others. He first entered the employ of the Santa Fe as a brakeman, and was soon pro moted to the position of trainmaster. His departure will be regretted by all, though his friends will rejoice in his promotion. R. D. Fowler, who was for merly chief dispatcher at Chillicothe, will come to Newton as trainmaster. CALIFORNIA TRAVEL. Western Roads' Offer Diverting Tour ists From South to West. Several of the western roads are prepar ing to make strong efforts to prom to heavy passenger travel between Chicago and California points during the coming winter. The Rock I.lanrl has started with a semi-weklv tourist cur service between Chicago and Los Angeles and San Fran cisco, and the Burlington, Santa. Fe and Northwestern will also muteruilly in crease their service between this city and the land of flowers. "We expect heavy travel to California during the next three or four months," said a general passenger agent of one of the transcontinental lines. "The winter tourist business, it appears, is turning more to California every year. There are several factors in the change of traxel from south to west, or rather for the in crease of travel, for the Florida business also promises to be good. It appears that more people in the middle west are taking winter sojourns than formerly. One eausj of the constantly increasing California travel Is the improved transportation ac commodations. A few years ago the ser vice between Chicago and Califorri'i, while good, was not to be compared t what it is today. Schedules are faster and better cars are operated by all lines.' The first Rock Island tourist excur-lot left Chicago on Tuesday in charge of R. S. Torrington. of Kansas City, as conduc tor. Charles Phillips, of Topeka. will take out one next Tuesday. This service, it is desired by the Rock Island, to go to Eos ton, if enough business can be secured. RAILROAD IMPROVEMENTS. Projected Buildings and Equipment Orders of Well Known Lines. The Missouri Pacific has ordered 1.000 coal cars from the American Car& Foun dry company. The box and furniture cars, of which there has been some talk, will not be placed for the present prob ably not till after January 1. The Missouri Pacific will soon order from 24 to 34 new locomotives. At Gainesville. Tex., the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe is erecting a new 10 Btall round house, just north of where the old round house now stands. It is reported that the Union Pacific will soon make improvements in Its yards at Salina. An S-stall round house, a steel coal shute and a storage build ing with a capacity of 1,000 tons of coal, and an enlargement to the water sup ply, will be included in the improve ments. SANTA FE TRAINS Are Sun on New Winter Schedule Beginning Today. The new time card on the Santa Fe went into effect today. Important changes In the running time of trains through Topeka were made, especially to Nos. 5, 7, 2 and 8. A new train that follows ten minutes behind No. from Texas points to Kansas City is on. The California limited, put on to run Tues days, Thursdays and Saturdays, will not make its fir st dash into Topeka un til tomorrow night. Conductor E. B. Sill will take the first No. 3 west. He has been laying off since the flyers were discontinued last spring. Passenger Meeting Called. An official call for the first meeting of the Transcontinental Passenger associa tion has been issutd. The meeting will be heid in St. Louis November 20. A goo.J deal of important business has been dock eted for consideration. The first thin? taken up will be the report of the chair, man regarding securing an office and furniture for it and the organization of an office etaff. Then will cime a renort of a committee consisting of General Pas senger Agents Lnmax, Hooper and Pas senger Traffic Manager McCormick on securing new members. General business to be eons!dered will include Pacific coast tourist tickets from Texas points via the Missouri river. The question of clergy fares and the method of issuing Crr.ii cates for 1W1 will be fuily oi-.cu.-ed. I TOPEKA FINDING THEM. fI When pain comes in dangerous places you should look E5 S after it. A pain in the small of the back is a pain in a 3 55 dangerous place. It tells you the kidneys are sick, and calls -Er. for prompt attention.

Interstate Commerce Commission. The interstate commerce commission will meet in Chicago on November 1! to investigate various complaints of west ern and northwestern shippers, who claim they are discriminated against. The Jobbers want the present unreason able differences between carload and less than carload classes and commodity rates removed and a more reasonable difference established. The matter will be bitterly contested, as the eastern and western interests are greatly di vided in this matter. Santa Fe Appointment. Mr. Gordon A.

THANKSGIVING SHOOT, Big Meeting of Sportsmen Will Be Held In Hutchinson. Hutchinson, Nov. 7. A repetition of the twenty-five live bird shoot, which occurred here between E, O. Hudson and Ed O'Brien, of Florence, has been matched for Thanksgiving.

Boole same into the city Saturday af ternoon, and was about to leave this part of the country, but the officers were on his track and he was taken from the Santa Fe train as it was about to leave.

VICTORY FOB Mil H LEY. Continued From First Page. J can landslide in Michigan, and Presi dent McKinley has carried the state by a majority variously estimated from 75, 000 to 100,000. The entire Republican state ticket has also been elected, al though by a smaller majority. Detroit, Mich., Nov. 7 The latest fig ures this morning give President Mc Kinley a plurality in Michigan of 82,017. Col. A. T. Bliss, of Saginaw, the Re publican candidate for governor, ran considerably behind his ticket, receiving 60,430 plurality. The state legislature will be overwhelmingly Republican, the returns showing a soiid Republican sen ate and but 11 Democrats in the house. There was little if any opposition to the constitutional amendment authorizing the taxing of railroad and other corpo rations on the cash value of their prop erty instead of their earnings, as at present, ana it was adopted by probably the largest vote ever cast for such, a measure. CONNECTICUT. New Haven, Conn.. Nov. 7. The clu rality for McKinley, with practically all the returns in, is about 23,000. The sur prise of the day was occasioned by the fact that the Republican state ticket fol lowed closely the figures of the presiden tial contest, and was elected by plu ralities of over 21,000. The Republifcan congressmen were elected by majorities ranging from 10,000 in the First district to a narrow margin in the Second for fcperry. The Connecticut general as sembly will seat nearly all of its sen ators as Republicans, while the lower house will be surprisingly Republican in its complexion. Nearly all of the cities of the state gave safe Republican majorities. The feature of the day was the tremendous vote cast. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 7. The re vised election returns for Connecticut, with every town and district in the state heard from, gives the state to McKinley by a plurality of 2S.415. The Republican state ticket, headed by Geo. P. McLean for governor, is elected by a plurality of 14,340. All four Republican congressmen are re-elected. The state ticket will contain, 22 Re publicans and two Democrats as against 21 Republicans and three Democrats two years ago. The house is Republican by 202, a Republican gain over the last house of 2L VERMONT. White River Junction, Vt., Nov, 7. Returns have been received from all but 63 towns in the state, mostly small agricultural places. Those will prob ably give additions to the Republican majority. From the towns which have made returns Bryan received 13,891 and McKinley 33,795. This will give a Re publican plurality estimated at 30,000. The net gain for the Democrats in this election over that of 1&96 is about 29 per cent., while the Republicans have net loss of about 11 per cent. White River Junction, Vt., Nov. 7. With half a hundred small towns to be heard from out of a total of 26, Mc Kinley's plurality is 30.000 with a prob ability of the missing- towns augmenting this 1,200, in a total ot 45,000. IOWA. Des Moines, la., Nov. 7. Iowa is Re publican by a hundred thousand, and a solid delegation- of eleven Republicans will be sent to Washington. 523 out of 2,137 precincts in the state have been heard from. These give McKinley 299, 07 and Bryan 205,842, a net Republican rain of 20 to a precinct. If this ratio is maintained and there is little doubt it will be, McKinley's plurality will be 104,000, the largest on record in the state. In 1896 McKinley's plurality in Iowa was 65.552. The entire Republican state ticket is elected by the largest plurality ever rolled up m Iowa. Des Moines. Ia., Nov. 7. With lim ited returns from SOO precincts McKin ley's plurality in Iowa will, it is thought be 80,000. The entire congressional del egation in the state is Republican, and Democratic losses are reported in every county. SOUTH DAKOTA. Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 7. No doubt remains that the Republicans have won a complete victory in South Dakota. Frank Crane, chairman of the Repub lican state committee, has persistently refused to be quoted during the present campaign on the probable outcome of the election, but at midnight he said: "We have secured sufficient returns from the state to conclusively show that we have carried the state for McKinley by a plurality of from ten to twelve thousand and that we have elected our two nominees for congress and the en tire state ticket. We will have a ma jority of 40 on joint ballot in the legisla ture, insuring the election of a Republi can to succeed Senator Pettigrew. The result has been a surprise to both sides as the fusiomsts expected Bryan to carry the state, while the Republicans did not expect McKinley's plurality to reach more than six or eight thousand. MONTANA. Helena, Mont., Nov. 7. Bryan's ma jority in the state will be not far from 18,000. The fusion state ticket is ap parently elected by several thousand. Governor Toole is running ahead and will have at least 10,000 plurality. The rest of the Democratic state ticket is elected. The legislature is controlled by straight Democrats, known as friends of Senator W. A. Clark. Helena, Mont., Nov. 7. Although the returns are incomplete this morning the Fusion-Democratic-Populists-Unioa La bor ticket has been elected and the friends of W. A. Clark, Democrat and candidate for the United States senate seem to control the legislature. Of the counties heard from decisively be has a clear majority in the house. Caldwell Edwards, Populist, who ran for congressman on the Fusion ticket is undoubtedly elected. Helena, Mont., Nov. 7. Returns are far from complete but Democratic State Chairman Water Coopers claims that Bryan has carried the state by from 10,000 to 15,000, and Toole (Clark Demo crat) for governor, and that the re mainder of that ticket has been elected by from 4,000 to 8,000, seem to be well founded. Republican Chairman Webster concedes that Bryan has car ried the state, but claims the election of Folsom for governor and Murray for congress by small majorities. The latter is running ahead of his ticket and may puli through, but this is regarded as doubtful by conservative politicians. In fact, it looks like a Democratic sweep. W. A. Clark's legislative tickets have won over both Republicans and Daly Democrats in Butte, Helena and Great Falls, which will give him a majority on joint ballot in the legislature, and that he will be returned to the federal sen ate seems beyond all doubt. For the first time in its history Butte has repu diated Daly, every nominee on the Clark ticket having a majority over all. while in Helena the Republicans were only able to elect one district judge. West ern, Montana, or the agricultural section, es usual returned small Republican ma jorities. Caldwell Edwards, Populist, who ran for congressman on the fusion ticket, is undoubtedly elected. NEVAE-JL Reno, Ner., Nov. 7. Late returns throughout the state indicate that Bryan will carry Nevada by from, L200 to 1,500' and that Newlands, Democrat, is re-elected by a safe majority. Washoe county that was supposed to be largely Republican went Democratic and from present indications the Republicans will not elect a man on the ticket. SOUTH CAROLINA. Columbia, S. C, Nov. 7. A very light vote was polled in South Carolina. The full state ticket and full congressional ticket was elected by the Democrats. There was seme opposition to Bryan by prominent cotton mill men, but it failed to develop much strength. MISSOURI. St. Louis, Nov. 7.- While complete re turns have not been received up to 8:30 a. m. it appears probable that Bryan and Dockery, Democratic nominee for governor have carried the state by re duced pluralities. No complete figures can be given for some time. St. Louis gave a handsome majority for the World's fair amendments and re ports from all over the state indicate there was no opposition to speak of. This insures the carryingg out of the project to hold a Louisiana Purchase ex position in 1903. St. Louis, Nov. 7. Returns from all but four precincts in the city of St. Louis give Bryan 57,755; McKinley 59. 174; Dockery (Dem.) for governor 56,837; Flory (Rep.) for governor 60,728. The Democrats elected every candi date on their city ticket. St. -Louis, Nov. 7. Twelfth district, James Butler (Dem.), elected. St. Louis, Nov. 7. At Republican state committee headquarters almost com plete returns from more than 30 counties showed an average Republican gain on state and national tickets of 500 com pared with four years ago. This lent the Republicans some encouragement, but Chairman Aikens gave up the state as the falling off in the party vote in St. Louis had marred their hope of success. The Democrats have elected congress men in 12 Missouri districts and the Re publicans in two with still two, 12th and 14th to be heard from. These are claimed by the Democrats with the pro bability of their getting them. In St. Louis the Democrats made great gains, securing one of the three congressmen and all the city offices. The Republican plurality of 15,717 given Mc Kinley four years ago was cut down to less than 3,000 on both national and state tickets. St. Louis, Nov. .7 Returns from all but 67 precincts out of a total of 333 in St. Louis, give McKinley 46.364, and Bry an 47,803. a plurality of 1.499 for Bryan. In 1896 the city give McKinley a plural ity of 15,717. Most of the missing pre cincts are Republican. Flory, Republi can, far governor received 47.991 and Dockery, Democrat, for governor 46,364. Tenth district, Richard Bartholdt, Re publican elected. Eleventh district, Charles F. Joy, Republican, elected. Kansas City, Nov. 7. Kansas City, Mo., complete: McKinley IS, 966; Bryan 17,328. A Republican gain over '96 of 9G votes. For governor: Flory (Rep.) 19,094; Dockery (Dem.) 17,750. GEORGIA. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 7 Bryan's majority in Georgia will be about 40,000, which is 28.000 less than given Governor Candler one month ago. The majority for Bryan shows an atmarent increase over that of four years ago of about 4,000. But little interest was manifested, and a very light vote was polled. The Georgia del egation to Washington remains solidly Democratic. Coffey county in South Georgia went for McKinley and the town of Fitzgerald registered a heavy Republican majority. Bryan's majority in Atlanta showed a large increase, the Republicans failing to carry the Fourui ward, whieh went for McKinley in 1896. ALABAMA. Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 7. Returns from state are too meagre to give any figures on vote for president. Bryan carried the state by a large majority on a light vote. A full Democratic con gressional delegation was chosen. WASHINGTON. Seattle, Wash., Nov. 7. There is every indication that McKinley has carried the state by 5,000 majority. In this city Frienk, Republican fer governor, is run ning behind McKinley. The election of governor is too close to be determined at this time. Seattle, Wash., Nov. 7. It Eeems im possible to get any definite figures on governor. Returns are coming in slow ly. Indications point to election of Re publican ticket with exception of Frink for governor, who is defeated by Rogers. In King county much scratching was done, resulting in splitting the ticket between Democrats and Republicans. COLORADO. Denver, Nov. 7. The fusion of Dem ocrats, silver Republicans and Popu lists made a clean sweep in Colorado. Bryan's majority, according to the re turns received up to 7:30 a. m., which are far from complete, will be 35,000 or more. The entire fusion state ticket, headed by John B. Orman for gov ernor, ia elected by smaller majorities than for Bryan. The fusionists will probably have a large majority in the legislature, but it is impossible as yet to give any figures cm the result. Denver. Nov. 7. The returns up to 10:30 o'clock indicate that the Fusion state ticket has carried 46 out of the 57 counties in Colorado and Orman's net plurality for governor over Goudy, Re publican, is estimated at 27,000. Denver. Nov. t. xne Republicans concede the legislature to the fusionists, insuring the defeat or United, (states Senator Wolcott. PENNSYLVANIA. Philadelphia, Nov. 7. Later returns indicate that Pennsylvania gave over son nna nluralitv for the Renubliean tick et, exceeding even the record breaking plurality of 295.027 in 1896. Of this plur ality Philadelphia furnished over 125,000 and Allegheny county, including Pitts burg nearly 50,000. Bryan carried Id of the 67 counties in the state. Returns are not yet complete but the indications are that the next Pennsyl vania delegation in congress will stand: Republicans 26; Democrats 4, as against 20 Republicans and 10 Democrats in the present congTess. The result of former Senator Quay's effort to secure control of a sufficient number of members of the incoming legislature to insure his return to the United States senate is yet in doubt. There is no disputing the fact that the attempt ot his opponents to defeat him in certain counties by fusing with the Democrats was practically a failure. Phiiadelphia.Nov.i. In the Thirteenth congressional district George R. Pat terson, Republican, defeated Congress man James W. Ryan, Democrat, by 1.SC0 majority. Ryan two years ago had 2,500 majority. This district comprises Schuylkill county in which there are more mine workers than any other county in the state. The entire Repub lican county ticket was elected and Mc Kinley had 1.500 plurality. Philadelphia, Nov. .v. Pennsylvania's next delegation in the house of represen tatives will stand: Republicans 26; Democrats 4: a repub lican gain of 6. The four Democrats elected are: Eighth district Howard Mutchler. Ninth district Henry D. Green. Seventeenth district Rufus K. Polk. Twenty-eighth district J. K. H. Hall. The last three were re-elected. Amang the Democrats to go down to defeat is Congressman Wm. McAleer in the Third district of Philadelphia. Henry Burke (Rep.) who defeated him had 1,260 majority. McAleer claims that the elec tion was a farce and that the mayor of Philadelphia sent 1,500 police into the district to intimidate voters. Philadelphia, Nov.7 Republican State Chairman Reeder claims that Mr. Quay will have 151 votes on joint ballot in the next legislature for re-election to the United States senate. There are 254 votes on joint ballot and 128 are necessary to elect. The state senate may be a tie on the question of Quay and anti-Quay. Returns from the Twenty-eighth con gressional district indicate the possibil ity that A. A. Clearwater, Republican, defeated Congressman J. K. P. Hall, Democrat, by a small majority. This would make the next Pennsylvania dele gation in congress 27 Republicans and 3 Democrats, a Republican gain of 5. IDAHO? Boise, Idaho, Nov. 7 Only 43 precincts out of the 400 in Idaho have been heard from. These gave the following results: McKinley 4,774; Bryan 4,810; Standrod for governor 4,647; Hunt for governor 4.67S; Morrison for congressman 4,767. Glenn for congress 4,551. '-the same pre cincts in 1898 gave Moss, Republican, for governor 2,370 and Steunenberg, Fusion, 3,918. The net Republican gain is 11.3 per cent. A gain of 9 per cent is needed to carry the state. From many of the heavy Republican precincts nothing has yet been heard and it seems some of the predicted percentage indicated will be maintained. On a basis of 50.000 votes cast for the Republican and Fusion tick ets which seems likely to be about the correct figure, the Republicans would have 26.400 and the Democrats 23,600, a Republican plurality of 2,800. It is rea sonably certain that the Republican na tional and state tickets have carried the state. No intelligent forecast can be given on the legislature. OREGON. Portland, Ore., Nov. 7. Oregon gave McKinley the largest plurality ever given a candidate for office in this state. With more than half of the total vote of the state counted the result is as fol lows: McKinley, 27,126: Bryan, 17,073; McKinley's plurality, 10.053. Portland, Ore., Nov. 7. One hundred and seventy-one precincts in Washing ton out of 1,637, give McKinley 8,771, Bryan 6,582. For governor, Frinke, Republican, 7, 355; Rogers, Democrat, 7,173. Returns show that although McKinley will carry the state of Washington by 6,000 to 8,000, Rogers will probably be elected governor by a small plurality. Cushman and Jones, Republicans, are elected to congress. Nearly complete returns from all but six of the 32 counties in Oregon give Mc Kinley a plurality of 14,105. It is pro bable that later returns will increase this plurality. DELAWARE. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 7. Returns are not all in yet from Kent and Sus sex counties and it may yet not be pos sible to say before this: afternoon which party has control of the state legislature. In any event it will be very close. The Democrats are claiming a majority on joint ballot, but the Republicans say they will control the legislature and elect two United States senators. The result of the vote in the country dis tricts is brought in by men on horse- ba'ck and there are no telegraphic or tel ephone facilities to aid in getting the fig ures quickly. Dover, Del., Nov. 7. The legislature is very close as indicated by the returns up to noon. The Republicans are claim ing the organization on joint ballot, and say that they will elect two United States senators. The Democrats say they are appre hensive that Senator Farlow, of Laurel, the Democrat who finally gave his sup port to Addicks, Republican, in the last legislative deadlock over the United States senatorship, will hold the balance of power in the incoming legislature. Wilmington, Del., Nov. .7 Returns re ceived this afternoon definitely determ ined the political division of the next Deleware legislature. It is Republican in each branch and will two United States senators of that party. In the Twelfth Republican district the vote for representative was a tie be tween Bayard Heisel, Democrat, Theo. F. Clark, Republican. The house will, resolve the tie in favor of the Republi cans. of the upeRlibasnc of the Republicans the next legislature will stand: House, 15 Democrats and 20 Republi cans: senate, 9 Republicans and 8 Dem ocrats; joint ballot, 23 Democrats and 29 Republicans. This will insure the Re publicans the United tSates senators if the two factions can agree upon candi dates. KENTUCKY. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 7. At 6 o'clock this morning the Courier Journal still claimed the state for Bryan by 13,091 and for Beckham for governor by 6,000. Republicans, however, claim the state for McKinley and Yerkes for governor by nearly 8.000. Over 200 precincts are still to be heard from. Frankfort, Ky., Nov. 7. Democratic leaders here on unofficial advices from over the state claim Bryan has carried the state by upward of 11,000 and that Beckham Is elected governor by over 7, 000. The defeat of Hall (Dem.) for ap pellate judge is conceded. This gives the Republicans a majority on the appellate bench, the highest court in the state. Complete returns from this. Franklin county, give Bryan 1,081 majority over McKinley. and Beckham 1,064 majority over Yerkes. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 7. Congress: Kentucky Fourth district, D. H. Smith, Democrat, elected. Fifth district H. S. Irwin, Republi can, elected. Sixth district D. Linn Gooch, Demo crat, elected. Eleventh district Vincent Boering, Republican, elected. Ninth district Samuel John3on Pugh, Republican, elected. Eighth district G. Gilbert, Democrat, elected. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 7.

Are Hot Breads WbolesomeP That hot breads should be more Indi gestible than other hot foods does not sppm reasonable to many, even though thestatements be made on good author tv. These statements are deducted from ac tual results in rnont instances, but there are always two sides to a question, and it is only fair to give both, that the intelli gent housekeeper may f rm her own con clusions. Sweeping asserti ns, with citms? poss4ble exceptions, irequently have tVie opposite result from effect aimed at to remedy an evil, especially when they run counter to some favorite hnbit or indul gence on the -part of another. WHY NOT HOT HRKADR? When one considers the fact that other cooked foods ar.e considered more benefl ial when eaten warm thn cold, the theory that hot breads are nwholesotne makes some one seek an explanation. The rea son that hot breads contain a certain amount of moisture should not interfere with their healthful digestion, all other conditions being favorable. Kmptoyintr good materials, especially flour, yeast and baking powder, and subject them to the proper process of mixing and baking, and why should the bread not be as whole some fresh from the oven other Btnrchv foods that are cooked vith the in telligent knowledge of how to convert raw material into proper food substances? Soggy bread and rolls, half d me by put ting such a mass of dough together that the length of time riven for baking is not sufficient to complete the work in a thor ough manner. If the heat is intwno enough to reach tho center of the dough, and there generate sufficient volume of steam from the moisture incorporated in the mass, the result is the bread is burned on the outside before the starch gran ules in the middle are disintegrated. If the ferment used is yeatft the plant is not killed, and when this is swaliowed with the moist, warm, sticky mass of half con verted starch the ferment is in its elem-nt and continues its work without any incon venience to itself, but very eonM'terab'e inconvenience and discomfort to the un fortunate consumer. Vnless the nature of yeast ferment is understood we do not see anv remedy for the exisling evil ex cept the use of other leavening principles, which furnish the carbon uioxide fiaa without fermentation. KNOWING THINGS. A knowledge of the common things of life is imperative for our comfort and well-being. Call it household chemistry, and, alas! many a housewife shaken hr bead in a doubt i ng wav and thinks it sounds all very fine; but hr mother never studied chemistry in order to be able to cook, and she was famous In her day not onlv for her good dishes, but for having brought up a strong and vigorous fam ily. And why? Not only were conditions then very different and the food materials in use of the tdmplfrst and most whole some kind, as it was probable before the age ff food adulterations, but that mother realized that she was building up a part of the nation's brain and brawn and di rected her work accordingly. Unfortun ately the many exnmph-s we have to show as the result of mother's system of feeding do not lead us to conclude that they ail worked wih the m.-jrne lntel)irnce. OUR GRANDMOTHERS KNEW SOME THING OF CHEMISTRY. That our grandmothers did have some considerable knowledge of chemistry in application to household uses is Khown in many of their old fmi y recipe b .okfl. Be fore the ue of baking powder was known they knew that in order to obtain the de sired lightness in their cakes thy m ist depend upon. the amount of air btat n into the batter a nd a No incorporated in t he white of egg. The heat expanded thij air and the albumen of the esrgn. being n t or hardened by th heat, formed the little cells that confined it and gave them a light cake or bread. THE FIRST BAKING POWDER. Necessity being the mother of invention and the housekeeper considering the amount of time and labor Fpent in this one direction, put on her thinking cap, and the result was a homemade baking pow der from wood a&hea and sour mil, tha two giving her the combination of acid and felJ&Ui needed. This, probably, was 2 "It t i jgH0Hf PWWBB BWIWW! 4 Vm.' W twtkc tentim." produced through tthe digestion of starch by our "exclusive process.

The overwhelming election of Mc Kinley is not only a strong: endorse ment of his successful and patriotic course during the Spanish war, but shows that the people of the country were afraid of the so-called "Bryan Ism" and the sweeping changes and ex periments Bryan proposed to make if the Democracy had been successful. The business interests of the country were evidently determined that no chances should be taken on any radical change In ths financial affairs of the country. The result is a great rebuke to th methods of Croker and Tammany. It is plain that however the voters may have disagreed upon certain policies in the Philippines, they preferred the fight continued on present lines, believ ing that a satisfactory outcome would result under McKinley and that Repub lican principles of this country were firmly established. The cry of imperial ism seems to have had but little weight. The people of the state will be. gen erally pleased that Kansas is in line, state and legislative, w ith the victorious Republicans of the cation. The latter have many serious problarms to solve be fore matters in the country are in a satisfactory situation, but the people have unmistakably declared that they have confidence In the Republicans to solve them. The landslide seems to have arrived. The president's neighbors stood by him nobly. The gold Democrats went bade but there were not enough of them. It may never be known whether it was Roosevelt or Hanna. that beat Petti grew. The Colorado voters took their revenge on "Wolcott for his desertion ot the silver cause. The Kepublicana have proved them selves to be better forecasters of election results than are their opponent. The Philippine war will now close, ac cording to the programme previously announced, and Johnny will come marching home. One member of the Bryan family was successful. A cousin of the Democratic candidate for president was elected gov ernor of Florida. Four more years of the full dinner pail is what the people want, and what they voted for. Those who have the con tract of keeping it full probably will be held to strict account. Senator Stewart was unable to swing Nevada into the Republican column. People like Stewart and Woicott, who forsake their constituencies, usually sac rifice their influence at the same time. GLOBE SIGHTS. tFrom the Atchison Globe.l "When a speaker gets hoarse, he has some idea that the country has been saved. It is a question which is a greater waste of money: giving it to voters, or to missionaries. There is a sensation in kin affairs: A woman and her daughter-in-law are in love with each other. The fierce contests over little political jobs makes the women's rights over a cheap prize at cards less ridiculous. A little man living in town occasion ally marries a woman who is small, but a little man inthe country always mar ries a tali woman. This is the season when you can walk out into the woods, throw a stick into a hickory or walnut tree and knock down a shower of nuts. Somehow, it always makes people feel like laughing to see a picture of a wo man with her dress cut low in the neck, and a baby in her arms. When a woman finds out that her hus band has done anything wrong.she likes to have all her female relatives present when she accuses him of it. An Atchison girl who can Jump a five foot fence, and accomplish other athlet ic feats, has put her affections on a young man who wears rubbers when there is a dew. One of the queer things about the av erage woman is that she is always ready to doubt her husband's statements, but swallows the Bible scories of Jonah and the whale, Daniel in the lion's den, etc., without a murmur. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. From the Chicago News. A stumble sometimes prevents a fall. Every doer has bis day and every man has hia hobby. Tou can't always tell what's in a bot tle by reading the label. Office seeking Is neither a trade nor profession; it's a disease. Bays an amateur poultry fuacier;"The only money in chickens is what they swallow." Don't think because a politician has his price that he always gets it. A married man's idea of a good time is doing the things his wife objects to. Lots of people who are Inclined to do good keep putting it off until tomorrow. QUAKER REFLECTION'S. From the Philadelphia Record. The man who steals a watch deserves to wind up in jail. A woman doesn't talk through her hat unless it happens to be a new one. The people who pay the most compli ments sometimes don't pay their bills. Silllcus "No woman has ever made a fool of me." Cynicua "Indeed! "Who did?" Wigwag "Bjones- would rather bor row trouble than borrow money." Hard uppe "What's the difference?" Some girls marry for money, but, for that matter, every clergyman does the same thing when he performs a cere mony. Tommy "Pop, what does U. of P.' mean on the football sweaters?'-' Tom my's Pop (who has wagered a ten-spot) "I guess it must mean uncertainty of playing.' Blobbs "Young Bsmlth has only been in business about three months, and yet he tells me he has gone to the wall." Slobbs "That's only a Joke of his. You see, toe's a paper-hanger." BURGOMASTER PLEASED. How the Opera Was Received In Omaha. The following concerning "The Bur gomaster," which will be in Topeka Fri day evening, is from the Omaha World Herald of November 2: "The Burgomaster" appeared at the Boyd last night, fresh despite his sleep of 2D0 years, and delighted one of the best audiences of the season. He has decided to remain for tonight and to morrow night and throw in a matinee Saturday for luck. Incidentally he will do a few things at the Press club benefit this afternoon. After seeing it one can easily understand why "The Burgo master" packed the Dearborn theater in Chicago during the hottest weeks of the summer just past. It takes an at traction of superior merit to till a capa cious theater night after night while the mercury is hovering around the 100 mark and mankind recalls with regret the lament of Lamb that he could not "peel off his flesh and sit in his bones." And that is what "The Burgomaster" is and accomplished. It is as bright and sparkling and wholesome at a glass c-f spring water, and as refreshing as a cool breeze in the desert. Mr. Gus Luders, who composed the catchy melodies did not strive to write classics that would go thundering down the ages like a Wagner overture. He wrote to set feet to keeping time and blood to circulating faster and he succeeded "The Burgo master" is full of those tantalizing tunes that one can not refrain from whistling as he goes to and from his work. From the time that the burgo master drinks his draught that put him to sleep until he finds his long lost sec retary in the last act, the opera is full of vivacity, good humor, catchy music, charming lyrics and pure humor. Mr. Pixley, who wrote the libretto and the lyrics, knew what would take; and Mr. Luders, who fitted the whole to music, knew just what would set people to humming snatches from the opera. The result of this combination is 'The Bur gomaster," a phenomenon in the comic opera world. The company presenting the piece is practically the same as that which made the piece famous during its long run in Chicago. Miss Yerrington, who "ssays the leading part, possesses a pleasing voice and infuses into the opera a vast amount of vim and snap. In the dual roles of Lieutenant Sweezer and Willie Vonastorbilt she made a Fplendid impression. Miss Coleman is delightful to see and hear and her vocal numbers were rapturously applauded, especially "I Love You." Harry Daven port as the Burgomaster, makes the most of splendid opportunities and his every apearance and word is the signal for laughter. Knox Wilson won favor by his splendid comedy work and his saxaphone solo was a decided hit. Wil liam Riley Hatch, who is a prime favor ite in Omaha, appeared as the "Harlem Spider," and hia representation of the tough guy was a bit of artistic work. The Spider and his "tough goils" won enough encores to supply an average company for a week. Tom Ricketts added much to the pleasure of the even ing by bis good work in the role of K. Booth Taikington, a broken down actor. Laura Joyce Bell appeared to good ad vantage and added to her already splen did reputation in Omaha, where she has appeared several times, the last time in support of Digby Bell. The scenic in vesture of "The Burgomaster" is unusu ally good. soTne of the scenes being greeted with hearty demonstrations o approval. The chorus is strong, both numerically and vocally, and the young ladies seem actually to get as much fun out of the opera as those who sat out in front. The Indian chorus, composed of male members of the company, was one of the best things of the evening. The costuming is up to the standard de manded by opera and scenery. "The Burgomaster" is really up to all of its advance notices, something that can truthfully be said of very few theatrical attractions. The performance will be re peated tonight and tomorrow night, and also at a matinee tomorrow. This root of many evils Glandular tumors, abscesses, pimples and other cutaneous eruptions, sore ears, inflamed eyelids, rickets, dyspep sia, catarrh, readiness to catch cold and inability to get riri of it easily, pale ness, nervousness and o-her ailments including the consumptive tendency Can be completely and permanently removed, no matter how young or ofu the sufferer.

STANLEY AM) THE SOLDIER How the State Committee Refuted Charges of Unfriendliness. During the campaign, the charge that Governor Stanley has not sustained the promises which he made to give the old soldiers the preference in making ap pointments under his administration, was freely used. The criticism of the governor has been offered mainly with reference to the state institutions under the manage ment of the state board of charities. The management of the state cam paign has deemed the charges of suffi cient extent and importance to cause the publication of a letter which Gover nor Stanley wrote to the board of char ities soon after it was organized under his administration. It has also been charged that Gover nor Stanley was not acting in good faith when he referred applications for places in the state institutions to this board. The letter which the state committee caused to be resurrected and published, in the opinion of the campaign mana gers, explains all of these charges as groundless. The letter follows: "The new administration will bring a change in the management of the board. 1 have selected the new members of the board because of my confidence in their character and efficiency. "The law provides that the subordi nate positions in all charitable institu tions in the state shall be tilled by par ties of your selection. I propose to leave the responsibility of these selections with you, but if agreeable to you, would be glad at any time to confer with you, both as to your appointees and the man agement of the several institutions un der your charge. "If changes are made in the employes of these institutions I desire to make the following suggestions: "First That in making your appoint ments, honesty and efficiency in the ap plicants be the first consideration. Second That all other things being equal, you give preference to the sur viving soldiers and sailors of the civil war. "Third That you conduct the several institutions under your charge with the strictest economy consistent with effi ciency. "Fourth That a prompt discharge follow every instance of. dishonesty, im morality or drunkenness upon the part of your employes. "With these suggestions I leave to you entirely the management of the charita ble institutions of the state, hoping for you the greatest success in their admin istration and trusting that your man agement may meet with the hearty ap proval of the people. "W. E. STANLEY." Accompanying this letter is the an nouncement that three members of the board are old soldiers and explaining al so that the board has made the follow ing list of appointments since March 1, It-Pfl: Fifty-two veterans of the civil war. Ninety-eight daughters or veterans. Kighty-three sons of veterans. Three widows of veterans. Twenty soldiers of the Spanish war. One widow of the Spanish war. A supplementary explanation claims that there are at present in the service of the state: Veteran soldiers 115 Sons of veterans 152 Daughters of veterans 113 Widows of veterans 3 TOPEKA'S STATeIToUSE. Student of Public Buildings Visits It and Talks. George R. Quarrels, general traveling agent for an eastern company, was in Topeka recently. Mr. Quarrels only makes the larger cities of the country and visits them once each year. In the course of the year he sees every state in the Union. He was standing on the north steps of the state house when a State Journal reporter was passing that way. The re porter was accosted in the following manner: "What building is that over there?" pointing to the east. He was in formed that the building in question was the general offices of the Santa Fe. Then followed questions in quick suc cession as to the other large buildings in sight, the high school, the city library and the Presbyterian church being among the more prominent ones. In the course of the conversation Mr. Quarrels said he had been through ev ery state house in the Union but the one in this city and that he was just about to go through the Kansas state house. Mr. Quarrels proved to be an interest ing talker and could tell some little story of almost any public building of import ance in the United States. "Did yoS know that there is one state in the Union which is without a state house?" he asked. "No." "Well there is. It is the state of Utah. Plans and specifications have been made for the building but it is not yet under the course of construction. It will be much larger than the building here or for that matter than almost every state house in the United States. It will with out doubt be the most magnificent building of its kind when completed. Nearly all the money for its construction has been appropriated but the fund still lacks considerable of reaching the re quired amount." After visiting the senate chamber of the Kansas state house Mr. Quarrels was quite liberal in his praise of the room, saying that it was far above the average. COMING DRAMATIC ETENTS. "Big Bill" Devere Is a well known man, and the way he was received last s-sson Vmonptrnted his popularity. II is manv friends will be plnd to learn that he will pny another visit this Reason in the fame character of the "Shot Gun Editor" in Hoyt's "A Black Sheep." Mr. Devere promises that he will be supported by a superior cast than that of lust year: many new faces will appear, and the play wiil better and stronger in every way. Harry Davenport, the leading comedian of "The Burgomaster" companv. which comes to the Crawford Friday night, pos sesses a valet who accompanies him en tour. Mr. Davenport claims that he is absolutely necessary to assist him in his many changes at each performance and especially in the proloeue to the musical comedy, when he portrays i"eter Stuyve sant and affects a one-leeged man with a wooden peg for the other limb. This wooden member is securely strapped to his body and fur at. least ten before and twenty minutes during the act. he mu-t either stand on one leg or He down: he can't bend to sit and when he lies down, his valet must assist him and and also to rise asain. It is no easv matter for Mr. Davenport to be funny when not at ease but. then again, he is onlv one of ;he many actors who have aniused an auutnce under difficulties even worse than This and. under the circumstances, he is entitled to a valet.

Brummer Co. yester day afternoon a ring-tailed Chinese monkey, one of the large variety, broke out of his cage and started on a career of murder and pillage. He killed two canaries and pulled the tail feathers from half a dozen parrots. When it came to plundering, he found the draw ers filled with packages of bird seed. Not wanting it himself, he took to throwing it at the parrots. It was while this was going on that the police, at tracted by a roaring crowd of men and boys in front of the place, came and tried to get in. It was finally decided to send for the proprietor. When he arrived the mon key had reached the desk and was tear ing up accounts and splashing ink. On the entrance of Brummer the rioter fled to one of the high shelves. The monkey had released a number of smaller mon keys and to these the bird man appealed for help. At once they started in pur suit and after an exciting chase the big monkey was overtaken and pulled to the floor by the little fellows. The bird store looked as if it had been through a cyclone. The damage can not be made good for less than $50. RECTOR RAISES A RUMPUS. Jersey City Pastor In Hot "Water For Censuring His Flock. New York, Nov. 7. Rev. Percival C. Pyle, rector of Grace PJpiseopal church. In the Greenville district of Jersey City, created a decided sensation among his parishioners on Sunday morning. In his sermon he charged that the church was deteriorating with startling rapidity. "When I came here, four years ago." he said, "the old vestrv had nearly wiped out the church debt. Then a new vestry was chosen, and they have done nothing but increase the debt, until it has almost reached $5,000. The congregation dees nit do its part toward sustaining the church. "Some of the men. I am told, spend their money on tobacco and in saloons in stead of eriving one-tenth of it to the sup port of the church, which is sadly in need of its tithes. I have made calls through out the parish, as mv duty commands, and in some places I have had the doors slammed in my face. I have even been stoned in the street and I have been slan dered in public." One of the members said that the rec tor's assertions were wild and unreliable, "As to the use of tobacco," he said, "'ht is all non-sense. The rector himself is addicted to 1he use of the weed. The members of the church ere sick and tii-ed of the whole business. He has made trou ble for ns before and we do not intend to stand this sort of abuse any longer." WOODSON IS REPUBLICAN.

SCHEME OF A HEAVY HEN. From the Louisville Courier Journal. J. W. Buchanan, an attache of the gen eral offices of the Louisville Nashville railroad, whose home is at 321 West Market street, Jeff ersonville, relates an unusual incident in connection with an old hen's eagerness to raise a family, not caring whether it was a brood of chickens or not. Several times the hen was supplied with a sitting of eggs, but being a hen of extraordinary weight she managed to break the eggs and at last gave up the egg-sitting job in disgust after Mr. Bu chanan had placed a half dozen door knobs under her henship. Along -came a cat with three kittens. The old hen chased the cat away and took charge of the kittens. The real mother ses them only occasionally, when she feeds them, but when the hen comes storm ing around the fur flies and then the cat leaves. There are nerer any ex ternal signs of Cancer until mttf the blood is polluted and the system thoroughly con taminated by this deadly virulent poison. Then a sore or ulcer appears on some part of the body it may be small and harmless looking at first, but as the can cerous cells form and are deposited by the blood near the sore, it increases in size and severity, with sharp shooting pains. No matter how often the sore is removed by the surgeon's knife or flesh destroying plasters, another comes and is worse. The real disease is in the blood, and the treatment must begin there. The poisoned blood must be invigorated and purified, and when this is deme cancerous cells can no longer form and the sore will heal naturally and permanently. Mrs. Sarah M. Keesling, 04X Windsor Ave., Bristol, Tenn., writes: "I am 4t years old, and for three years had suffered with a evere form of Cancer on my jaw, which the doctors said was incurable, and that I could not live more than six mont lis.

Indications That the Ex-Speaker "Was Defeated. Bryan carried Trego county in 1896 by 94 votes. This year the Fusionists car ried the county by about 20. Morris county, the home of Lieutenant Governor Harry Kichter, is reported to be in doubt. Ottawa county, the home of Justice Johnston, which was over 100 for Stan ley two years ago, seems to be Republi can again this year, but Harry McMil lan, the Fusion nominee for senator car ried the county by 65. Saline county is in this senatorial district. The result there is in doubt. J. C. Mohler is the Republican nominee for senator and may be beaten. Kx-Speaker Osbom, re nominated for representative, may have been defeated. His district Is reported to be much in doubt. Republicans at headquarters late this afternoon have hope of pulling Wheat ley of the Third district through. It Is said Wheatley has carried Crawford county which went four years ago over 800 for Bryan and two years ago 452 for Leedy. If Wheatley cuts Congressman Rldg ley's majority of l.COO in Cherokee as he has trimmed it in Crawford, he will be elected. John Breldenthal and the remaining Fusion candidates carried Labette coun ty, Breidenthal's former home by 150 majority. Governor Stanley carried Sedgwick county two years ago by a majority of 19. This year he has carried his home county by at least 450. In Parsons, the asylum controversy caused considerable scratching against Stanley, but outside of the city in La bette county the governor ran ahead of the ticket. In Oswego, in the ward which is the home of L. S. Crum, Stanley was 22 ahead of McKinley at the finish. The Populists elected legislators in La bette county.: HUGGINS DEFEATED. Republican Candidate For Senator In Lyoa Defeated. Meager reports from Lyon county In dicate that W. L. Huggins and Charles Harris, Republican nominees for senator and representative, respectively, have been defeated. Although no confirmation of this has been received it is accepted as a fact. The returns which are coming by wire are all addressed to the Republican com mittee. The Populist state committee has not had more than a dozen tele grams all day. The telegrams to the Republicans show astonishing gains all over Kansas and to such an extent that the most con fident member of the opposition does not for a single moment question the result. J. Mack Love has Joined the "con ceding" element in Kansas politics, and admits the success of the Republicans on the state and legislative propositions. The fusionists think Jackson in the Third congressional district will win, but their secret hope is that the Repub licans, now that the indications point to an overwhelming victory, as one of their number expressed it: "Take the whole works." "Now that the Republicans seem to have won, I hope they will get the na tional congress, the state legislature and the state ticket. Then they will have the opportunity to either keep or fail in their promises, and we can meet them squarely in the next campaign on their own record." This is the manner In which an official of the Populist state committee ex pressed himself this afternoon. D. O. McCray, secretary of the Free Silver Republican state committee, con cedes Republican success in state and nation. G. C. Clemens, the nominee of the So cial Democrats for governor, met Chair man Ridgley at the entrance to Popu list headquarters this afternoon. "Didn't I done tole yer?" said Clem ens. Mr. Ridgley did not reply to this "josh." Before election Clemens predicted the defeat of the fusionists. He said: "Our party will do all the business next time. Fusion has killed the Populist party, and the men who have been responsible have been reprimanded at the ballot box." ELECTRICITY ON RANCH. Detroit Men Plan Big Mexican Enter prise on Modern Lines. Detroit, Nov. 7. An interesting exper iment in conducting a western ranch will be made this winter. It will be tried in Lower California and Mexico by Michigan people. Many of the old ranching methods will be done away with and in their place strictly novel and up-to-date ideas will be put in op eration. The ranch is controlled by J. Durley Morton of Pontiac and his uncle, T. Morris Flower, who has been ranch ing in Lower California for several years. Mr. Flower is a nephew of the late Roswell P. Flower of New York and Mr. Norton a grand-nephew. The two ranchmen have secured con trol of l(i6,0!K acres of land just across the border from the state of California. The property is seventy-five miles from Pan Diego and thirty miles from Ensenada, Mex., the nearest town. It is situated in a valley, almost surrounded by mountains, is fertile and well water ed. Large quantities of grain will be raised, 8,0fi0 acres already having been sowed, but the main industry will be stock raising. In addition to this the ranch will possess one of the largest poultry runs west of the Mississippi river. The most modern incubating plant will be installed for this portion of the enterprise. The ranch will b supplied with all the conveniences possible. A unique feature of it will b2 the placing of se eral s-arcii-lights on the mountains overlooking the ranch, thus replacing the old system of night riding to prevent thlevine. Ti-e tender of each light will be armed with a long-range rifle and will also he pro vided with a signal code by which lie can fla-sh information to the other i;pht ten ders and any one who may be out amoni the cattle. Each light tender will nl'o have at hand a telephone connected with the main ranch, the pushing of the but ton ringing an alarm bell. All part's the ranch will be provided with telephone stations and an electric light p'ait wij be installed at the ranch, all of the build ing being illuminated with electricity. Santa Fe Shops Close.

Austrian Makes a Long Walk and Pushes His Wife In a Chair. Antwerp, Nov. 7. Anton Hamsllan, an Austrian, who has a wager with an American newspaper that he can walk from Vienna to the coast and from New York to San Francisco in 250 days, pass ed through here yesterday, wheeling his wife and children In a Bath chair. He left Vienna Sept- 12 and Bails for New York this wef k. He is accompanied by a friend, who busies himself with selling post cards to assist in the expenses of this trip. It was this friend who walked from Vienna to St. Petersburg, wheeling his family, in fifty days. MERE BOV A GUIDE. tFrom the St. Louis Republic Henrique Amal, 14 years old, French by descent, but a native of Pecos, Tex., has business that in Itself is unique, and which certainly is practiced by no body else of his age. He acts as In terpreter, guide and general factotum for parties of emigrants from Kuropa traveling to this country. Last night he passed through Union station, escorting a party of 25 French emigrants bound for Albuquerque, N. M. He was very busy. Ail the station officials asked questions of him in re gard to tickets; he negotiated such pur chases of food that had to be made, saw that the baggage was properly checked, and did a thousand things which would naturally be a grown man's province. He did all well. He said that down in the southwest, where irrigation is continually opening up new lands suitable for vineyards, there is a scarcity of steady labor, and that the owners think it desirable to colonize them with foreigners. To bring a parly of these over, there is needed somebody who can talk Kngllsh as well as the language of the emigrants. He was French by bii'th and spoke the lan guage fluently, and consequently could serve for persons of that nationality. This is his second trip with colonizer, making the fourth time he has crossed the ocean. He Is a bright boy and at tends to his duties thoroughly. Beveridge's View. Indianapolis. Nov. 7.

From the Chicago News. 3 On re, upon a Time thtre wa.s a Loiif ly and Desi-rving Girl named Clara, who gel ting so near thirty that a he didn t want to talk about it. Everybody had a good word fur her. She traveled with the ttiorouehbrt-ds and was always among tho.je present: so It was hard to under srand why she nadn't married. Other girls not as good looking or accomplished had been grabbed off while they we're buds. Already some of them were begin ning to act as chaperons for Clara. They were keeping tab on Clara's age. too. and began to think that she would land on the ba ruain count er and have to be satisfied with a widower who wore a toupee and dyed his eye-brows. Clara was s -me what of a mind -reader. She knew that hte f r sends of her youth were predicting a hard finish for her, so she decided to fool them. And she knew t fruit it behooved her to catch on before the children started hi to call her auntie. Xow It is not to be inferred that Clara was what the underwriters cad bad risk. She never had been a drug on the market. When she went to a hop she didn't have to wait for ladies choice in order to swing into the mazy. In fact, she had been engaged now and then, just for practice, and she had received offers from some of the hold-over bachelors who went around proposing from force of habit. But Clara was not out for any man who had been turned down else where. She wanted the right kiHd and she was going to do the picking herself. Having made an inventory of the pos sibilities, she selected the treasurer of the shoe factory and decided that she could love him without straining herself. He was about her age and was almost as good looking as a Gibson man. and had Al prospects. It would be no easy job to land him, however, because the comugli tion was very keen and he was wary, trying to be a kind friend to every giri he knew, but playing no favorites. Pie kept the parent.- guessing. The treasurer of the shoe factory was what any society pa f it-r woidd ca 11 a grat catch. C'.ira got busy with herself and hatched a scheme. When all the smart set got ready to pike away for the heated term, Clara surprised her friend by guessing that she would remain at home. Jt was a nervy tiling to do, because all the so cial head-liners who could command the price were supposed to ilirt off to a sum mer hotel and loiter on the pine veranda and try to think they were recuperating. Clara told her mother to go, as usual, hut she would Flay at home and be a companion to poor, lonesome papa. So all the women WtiU away to the resorts with their cameras and talcum powder and witch hazel and Clara was left alone in town with the men. It Is a traditional fact that there Is no social life in town tUiring the dog days. But there is nothing to prevent a bright girl from starting something. That is what Clara did. She stocked up th refrigerator and hur.g a hammock on the lawn with a few easy chairs around it. The young men marooned in town heard of thp pond thinir uni! no one had to tear their eiinnenls to induce them to come. They arrived at the rate of from seven to twelve a night and dpped into papa's cigars and the li quid nourishment, regardless. Although Clara had remained in town to act as companion to papa, it was noticed that when she had ail the company in the ed and out to be a or else he had his or- i i ders to stay under cover. Clara did not send for the Treasurer rf the shoe factory. She knew better th: n to go out a iter her prey. She allowed him to find his way to the house with the others. When he came, she did not chide h i m for failing to make his party ca 1 1 neither did she rush toward him with a 1-w cry of joy, therby tipping her hand. She knew t hat the treasurer uf the shoe tactfiy was next to all those boarding school tactics and could not be handled by the methods that go with the college students. Clara had enjoyed about ten years" experience in h.indiing the crea tures and she had learned to labor and to. wait. She simply led him into the circle and took his order and ailowe! him to sit i here i:i the gloaming and observe how popular she was. All the men were scrap ping to see would would be next to sit m t he hammock with her. It looked for aw hil as if Clara would have to give out I checks the same as in a barber sh ;ip. I-iate that night when the men walked homeward together, they remarked that Clara was a warm hostess. Next evening the treasurer of the slice factory was back on the lawn. So were ali the others. They said there was no beating a place where you could play shirt-waist man under the trees and have a fairy queen in white come and push cold drinks at you and not have to sign ar.y tick ft. Tin y conip se 1 Mattering songs about Clara and every time she moved there was a man right there wiih a sofa cushion t- help her to be conifer -.ab'. In the meantime the ;ther g:rls out at he summer resorts were doiiur the best they could with these high school cadets, wen ri ng t hues around t heir hats, who would rather go out in a eat-bat and g their arm' ta nnd than remain on shore and win the hn"pt love of an American pirl. with a "Ming to u. Clara's work, about this time was ever J counties of Kansas. a to pay before due 4-

All the men volun teered to help and two or three wanted to tag along, but Clara drove them back. They were gone a long time, because the treasurer had to draw all the corks, and they fussed around together In the pantry fixing up a lunch tor the boys. ciara told him how strong and handy he was, until ho fait an increase in chest measure ment. On successive evenings ehe had the treasurer supervise all the arrangements. i J ne? hired girl had every evening out, oe i cause it was so much more jolly to go out I and run the place yourself. In less than i a week the treasurer was giving orders around the house. Every evening she j would get him back to the kitchen and tie j an apron around him and ask what she I should do next. She made him out to be the only one whot could be trusted. The others were comny. but he was like one of the family. And although he was being worked like creamery butter he never suspected. Her game wad to domesticate him In advance and let. him have a foretaste of what it Is to be boss of your own houe except as to the bills. The pantry was full of home delicacies such as he couldn't get at the hotel, and the service was the best ever. Clara was right at his elbow with a willing smile. It didn't take him long to realize that he was missing a lot by remaining single. He wondered why he had been so slow in getting on to Clara's good points. Also he wondered if it was any open and shut certainty when a dozen other men, some of them younger and more gallus, were after her in full cry. Clara had hm pulled in, strung and hung over the side of the boat. Of course, if ali the other girls had been In town, they would have tumbled long before it ran into a certainty and prob ably they would have formed a V and rushed in to break up the pin v. But the other gi r 1 s were far away w i t h the old men and the seminary striplings. Clara had an open field, with no need of any interfering or blocking, and if she fell down it was her own fault. Besides she had all these other admirers set out as decoys to prove that if he didn't, some body else might. The treasurer of the shoe, sfaotory got a large rally on himself and she had to give in and make a promise. He loves to tell callers how he proposed to his wife in the kitchen and he doesn't know to this day that she was expecting Moral: Aa soon ass he begins to frequent the back rooms of the house, measure him for the harness. MAN PAWNS MONEY. Puts Up Five Dollars In Gold and Gets a Loan of $4.50. Cincinnati. Nov. 7. It is not often that a person pawns money, but such is th case with a man well known about the city, whose name is withheld. As far aa known, this is the second time that money has been put in pawn in Cincin nati. Today the man walked into th office of a Vine street pawn broker and put up a $5 gold piece for J4.50. He said nothing, but quietly pocketed the money arid waiKea out. ir he redeems the money within .'10 days he will have to pay S4.5 to get it .and if not he will have to pay 45 cents every month to save it.

President McKin ley received the election returns last nigrht at his home, surrounded by a large number of his old friends and neighbors, including many ladies, who came as the guests of Mrs. McKinley to share with her the interest and xcite ment of this culminating event of the campaign. Direct wires connected the house with the national Republican headquarters at New York and Chicago, with Senator Hanna at the "Union club in Cleveland, O., and the home of Gov ernor Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, so that the president was in constant telegraph communication with his associate on the ticket and with the campaign leaders. The president made his headquarters in his library, where most of the gen tlemen guests congregated, while Mrs. McKinley entertained the ladies in the parlor. The president was in his usual good humor, showing no signs of anxiety over the result. The president in person read aloud some of the returns, but refrained from making any comment whatever on the results and accepting with unruffled composure the favora.ble reports which began to come in at an early hour. Secretary Cortelyou read most of the dispatches, some of the more cheering announcements being heartily applauded bv the guests. Most of the early ad vices were fragmentary- and inconclu sive, but the strong indications that New York and probably Illinois had gone for McKinley were received with great sat isfaction. At 9 o'clock the president received a dispatch from an enthusiastic individual stating that New York and Illinois car ried the day for McKinley and that he was re-elected. The responsible leaders made no early claims, however, although their dispatches told of gains at many points and breathed the spirit of victory near at hand. The president's first congratulations from headquarters came from J. H.Man ley at New York, as follows "Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Your triumphant re-election is conceded by Democratic managers. I tender my earnest congratulations. We are very happy at headquarters." At midnight Cantcn was in a frenzy of enthusiasm which knew no bounds. The crowds which had been burning red fire down town marched en masse to the McKinley residence with bands playing, rockets sending lurid streaks across the midnight sky and trumultuous cheers mingled with the din of horns and steam whistles. The crowd was stilled for a time with some of the cheering news re ceived. This included dispatches from the Kansas chairman claiming that state by 40,000; from Secretary Heath of tile national committee saying Indiana give McKinley 29.000 plurality; from the Iowa chairman saying Iowa's plurality was 100.000 and from the Union League club, Chicago.giving the president glow ing congratulations. But the crowd clamored for the president and he kindly appeared waving his acknowledgment of the deafening cheers. The president said: "Kellow citizens I thank you for the very great compliment of this call on this inclement night, and at this late hour. (Cries of "You're welcome.") Of the many gratifying reports from all parts of the country none has given me more sincere gratitude than those from my own city and my own county of Stark, and I appear now only to do as I have done on so many former occasions, to thank you once more for the warm and hearty indorsement which you have today given my public acts." THE NEWS AT OYSTER BAY. Gov. Roosevelt Waited For Returns to Be Brought to Him. New York, Nov. 1. Governor Roose velt, surrounded by his family, last night received returns at hrs home on Saga more Hill. The governor at no time dur ing the evening seemed anxious about the result. He did not make any spe cial arrangements to receive the news, and depended on messages to be brought from the telegraph office nearly mree miles away. The first definite informa tion of Republican victory was convey ed to the governor about 10 o'clock. He was in the reception room with his wife and daughter. When he appeared at the door to meet a reporter, he was clad in full evening dress. He invited his visitor into the parlor, and closely scrutinized the returns and briefly commented on the result. After reading the messages he said: "Isn't that fine? It shows what the American people are. It shows they want the good times to continue, and are in favor of honest money and are for the flag." The governor at once dictated the fol lowing dispatch to President McKinley: "To President William McKinley.Can ton, O. I congratulate you and the na tion. You have my heartfelt gratitude over the result. "THEODORE ROOSEVELT." Governor Roosevelt also sent mes sages of congratulation to Senator Han na and Chairman Odell, governor-elect. REJOICING IN ENGLAND. London Papers Express Pleasure at Bryan's Defeat. London, Nov. 7. The afternoon pa pers voice the general sentiment of Eng land with the result of the presidential election in the United States. The Even ing News says: "Anti-imperialism, the attempt to stir up Jealousy against England, the cham pionship of the Boers and pandering to the Fenians all availed Bryan nothing. His defeat is even more a defeat for Croker and Tammany, and that is its happiest feature. It reaily looks as though Americans are tired of the gang of corrupt Irish-Americans who have degraded American politics so long." The Star says: "Had Bryan kept to the issues of anti imperialism, anti-trusts, and social re form, he might conceivably have won. Sound money proved his undoing. He has been crucified on a cross of gold but it was very much a voluntary crucifica tion. The most remarkable feature is the personal defeat of 'Boss Croker.' The Times, in a special edition, says: "Mclvinley's victory is no ordinary party triumph. It is a victory for com mon honesty, sound sense and sober, en lightened and political judgment." After reference to Bryan's e ndeavor to make imperialism the paramount issue, the Times says: j "Free silver and its attendant heresies i are the real matters upon which the j j electors have given judgment." j j After commenting upon "Bryan's ad- J I vocaey of unsound principles and un- j I constitutional methods and his appeals to class hatred, which stirred the pas sions of all the worst elements of the I population." the Times expresses the j opinion mat had Bryan been elected even all the checks of the constitution could not have restrained him from ex periments fatal to social order and ma terial prosperity, and it concludes: "From that danger the country is mercifully delivered, certainly for the present and we may hope for all time."

Parks, a well known attorney of Denver, and an enthusiastic astronomer, was sweeping the heavens with his telescope when he came upon a new- celestial body for w hich he could not account. It appeared from Its formation to be a glowing mass of hydrogen and nitrogen, and to be heading toward the earth. It was found between the constellations of Aries and Cassiopia that is, in the north of the heavens about midnight. The Star of Bethlehem is supposed to have appear ed in about the position of the star de scribed by Mr. Parks. Now, there are two theories as re gards the Star of Bethlehem Until re cent years the interpretation of this phenomenon by theologiansand bellievers generally coincided with the obvious facts of the Biblical narrative. The Star in the East, which appeared to the Magi and led them to the Savior, and which was seen by the shepherds, keep ing their nightly watch on the plains near Bethlehem, was apparently miracu lous. The whole matter was regarded as supernatural, forming a portion of that divine prearrangement whereby the Father acknowledged the Son. But with many people a very different opinion has gradually become prevalent. The star has been displaced from the category of the supernatural and mirac ulous, and has been referred to the ordi nary astronomciai pphenomenon of a conjunction of the planets Jupiter and Saturn. This idea originated with Kepler, one of the founders of modern astronomy, as far back as the seventeenth century- He supposed that if he could identify a con junction of the above-named planets with the Star of Bethlehem he would thereby be able to determine as the basis of certainty the exact date of the birth of the Savior, a matter concerning which there has always been dispute. Kepler's suggestion has been worked out in the present century by Dr. Ideler, of Berlin It seems, then, according to the calculations of both these men. that a conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn took place about or at the time of the birth of Christ, the conjunction occur ring not far from the first point of Aries. In fact, there were three con junctions at the time, and in the first two conjunctions the interval between the planets amounted to no more than a degree, so that to the unassisted eye the rays of tbe one planet were absorbed in those of the other, and the two bodies would appear as one. The two planets went past each otht r three times, came very near together, and showed themselves ail night long for months in conjunction with each other as if they would never separate again. Their journey is supposed to have oc cupied several months. It is supposed that the last conjunction of the two planets took place when the Magi enter ed Jerusalem. In the clear atmosphere of the East the planets would present a far more brilliant appearance than thev would from our point of view, Jupiter especially presenting a brilliant appari tion, being at its nearest approach both to the sun and to the earth. Familiar Words Explained. TFrom the London Express. Words, like men. have histories, while others embody history. To the latter class belongs the word "rigmarole." Everybody understand: it a.s signifying a confused and meaningless jumble, but few recall the fact that it comes from ragman's roll. Now, the rag man's roll was a crown document of no small importance. It is a real roll of an cient parchment, and records categorical ly the instruments and deeds bv which Scotland's nobility and gentry save in their adhesion, and swore allegiance to Edward I. of England toward the close of the thirteenth century. Naturally, it is a somewhat confused document, but possi bly not quite so much confused as con tusing to the good people of Its own era. It must have been upsetting in those clays to discover that the lords and gen tlemen thought to be stanchest for" the old order had gone over to the invading king. Yet there is something to be said for the lords and gentlemen trev loved not Sc tl:,n I's ind p nd. nee 1 ss, but th ir h'iids and their estates rather more. Most of us are fond of venison that is to say, deer's flesh. Formerly, however, that word had a wider meaning, beinir usfd for any flesh hunted that is. meat f venery. Venery is the old word for hunt ing thus fcxes nnd wolves and l.adeerx furnish "venison" no less than the lordly stag. Cur. the synonym for a worthless dog has somewhat, the same derivation. In feudal England the dogs of the villeinage, no doubt mostly starving mongrels were by law required to be curtailed that Is. have their tails cut .short si tha thev might be readily distinguished from the stag and boar hounds of the lords and gentlemen. The stag hounds ran true up'm tne scent, me mongrels would confuse and draw them off from it. Sometimes the vil lein doers had likewise to suffer "hornb ling" that is, cutting awav the two mid dle toes from each foot, so they could not run with the hounds. A curtail. r cuttle dop. in time became simplv a cur. His owners, the villeins, who lived In clu--. tered hovels outside the castle walls, in like manner gave rise to the word vil lage. Another wonderfully expressive phase "to run riot" also romes from the hunt, ing held. Foxhounds run riot when the leave the drag- of the fox and go racina an. I chasing .iff upon the pc?nt of hares and rabbits, whose company the fox seek when he linds himself pursued. Indeed, FAIR NEWS. Just Recicved.

6 TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 7, 1900. HAZENELEGTED. His Majority In the County is About 250. Galen Nichols Goes in by About 500. NOT YET COMPLETE. Democratic Strongholds Go For Hazen and Nichols. 3.Kinlev and Stanley Have Orer 2,00C Plurality. Count Has Been Unusually Slow and Tedious. The latest returns Indicate the election of Judge Hazen to succeed himself as district judge and Galen Nichols for county attorney. Until noon today the result was in doubt but while the returns were not entirely complete at 3 o'clock it was evi dent that Hazeii is elected by a majority of about 250 and Nichols ia elected by about 500. The Republican national and state tickets received between 2,000 and 2,500 r. jareKr. f:J m ...A' A Z. T. HAZEN, District Judge. pluralities and the "scratching" -was confined almost exclusively to Hazen and Nichols. While the Republicans voted against Hazen and Nichols they ran ahead of their ticket in some of the Democratic strongholds. An analysis of the vote will show that the Democrats supported both Hazen and Nichols practically with unanimity. They also got the so called liberal vote. MITCH DELAY IN COUNT. The counting of the votes has been very slow in some precincts as the vote was unusually large, the ballots were scratched a good deal and many inex perienced judges and clerks served at the polling places. Up to 2 o'clock the count was still going on in five of the city precincts and the commissioner of elections nor the Republican county committee had received the returns from the second and third precincts of the Second ward, the first precinct of the Third ward and the fifth and sixth rrecincts of the Fifth ward and Oak land, iShunganunga, Sutherin, Hart socks, Linn Creek, Richland, and ICaw precincts in the country. The Martin and Clark supporters gave tip the fight after dinner and by 2 o'clock the room in the Auditorium where the Republican committee received the re turns and the commissioner of election's office were nearly deserted. L. T. Tount predicts a majority for Hazen of 300 and 400 for Nichols. The vote on president can not be learned in some of the precincts as the clerks failed to carry out the number of tvotes on the return sheet. Returns from 20 out of the 31 city pre cincts give Judge Hazen a majority of '52 over Judge Martin.and Galen Nichols a majority of 400 over Clark. One coun try precinct, Rossville, supposed to go for Hazen and Nichols gives Martin a majority of 31 and Clark a majority of 6 2. Throughout the city Stanley seems to tiave run a littie behind hi3 ticket, prob ably from 300 to 600. Harry Safford will receive a good majority over Isenhart. in both the First and Second wards. In the First precinct of the First ward Hazen and Martin ran even, receiving 307 votes each. Nichols with a majority of only 17 over Clark although the First is called his "home ward." Nichols leads Hazen in most of the precincts. In the Second ward where Hazen was expected to lose he carried the First 3recinct with 201 votes to Martin's 104. Nichols received 198 to Clark's 105. Mar tin carried the Fourth precinct with 245 to Hazen's 213. Nichols received 21S to Clark's 23L The Martin and Clark sup porters have not yet given up hopes of winning when the country precincts are ail in. The Republican majorities on the oth er candidates will be in the neighbor hood of 2,000. Chairman Larimer of the Republican county committee said that both Hazen end Nichols w ill be elected by Binail ma jorities. FIRST WARD. First precinct McKinley SO, Bryan 112; Stanley 75.

Sanborn Formally Closes It Up. St. Paul, Nov. 7. Walter H. Sanborn, United States circuit judge made an or der today approving the final report of the successory receivers of the Union Pacific railway and finally discharging them. The receivership which has been thus closed was, on account of its com plications, and extent of interests in volved, the most important in the great list of American railway bankruptcies. When it was commenced October 13, 1893, the Union Pacific system included 8.165 miles of rail lines owned or leased and operated representing a capitaliza tion of stock and bonds of $470,000,000. After Judge Sanborn assumed control of this case early in 1894, the receivers han dled without loss under his orders mon eys amounting to J106.000.000. The claim of the United States on the Union Pacific proper of $58,000,000 prin cipal and accrued interest was paid ir. full and unsecured creditors were paid from various sources about 40 per cent of their claims, an amount largely in excess of their expectations. The ad ministration of Uiis receivership by the court has been unusually successful. Funeral Notice. All comrades of Ft Pillow Post No. 321 are requested to assemble at the Post room No. 112 East Sixth street at 9 o'clock Thursday morning, to attend the funeral of Rev. Comrade Barker. The funeral sermon will be preached at Rev. Mr. Barker's church. Nordi Topeka. W. H. SMITH, Post Com. WU. BROOKS, Adjutant. BOTH CLAIH KENTUCKY. Democrats Place Figures Higher Than the Republicans Da Louisville, Ky., Nov. 7. At 1 o'clock Mr. Yerkes, Republican candidate for governor, said: "From the figures furnished me by Chairman Combs, I am of the opinion that my election is assured by a major ity of 2,500 to 3,000. The election of the national ticket being absolutely certain the small margin in my race is not a matter of great concern I believe my majority will be counted and a certifi cate issued." Governor Beckham would only say that he had been elected by at least 10, 000 and was perfectly satisfied. Ex-Governor McCreary, chairman of the Democratic state campaign com mittee, said: "I an satisfied Kentucky has Cii ieiauc. Alio by ti-m 6,0n0 to IU.000. I have received returns from 74 counties from chairmen of the county ca.mua.itrn committees. I have also heard nofiic'aliy tiom 24 counties ana giving the Republicans in the counties not heard from the majoi-ities received in 1896, which were higher than they were in 1899, Beckham Is unquestionably elected." REPUBLICANS WIN LEGISLATURE. Charleston, W. Va., Nov. 7. Both state committees have ceased to receive returns but it is conceded that the Re publicans have carried the state. The Republicans claim 35,000 plurality. The legislature will be Republican on Joint ballot by eight or ten. ART AND POLITICS. Fraulein Stolle's Lecture Varied With the Election Returns. The attendance at Fraulein Stolle's lecture last evening was not so large as on the preceding evening but that was only natural when taking into consider ation the many conflicting attractions.Her subject was: "The Galleries of Rome and the Vatican," and she led up to it with an interesting little introductory speech, at the same time showing a few views one sees on approaching Rome. The Colliseum and a few other well known buildings in Rome were shown, ending with a bird's eye view of the city after which she led the way to the Vatican where most of the evening was spent. Most of the evening was devoted to the works of Michael Angelo and Raph ael, though a few others were introduced incidentally. The Sistine Chapel is a subject in which most art Btudents are interested and Fraulein Stolle took one room in the chapel, decorated by Mich ael Angelo, first showing the ceiling and frescoes as a whole, after which site showed each section in detail so that eves- one could plainly see the rich and varied colors, even to the most delicate tints, and could also gain a clear idea of the individuality of execution. Near ly every one had seen copies of the or iginals of the pictures shown or were at least familiar with the subjects, but it is an education in itself to see the original colorings,which differ greatly from those used today. Fraulein Stolle spoke of the great dif ficulties she had to cope with in obtain ing some of her pictures. In Rome it is an offense for which one may be arrest ed and fined, just to take a snap shot of any of the natives in the streets, and the cunning rogues will surround the unsus pecting tourists carrying cameras and beg them to take their pictures after which they call policemen and have them arrested and fined. Fraulein Stolle's subject for this ev ening will be, "The Galleries of Flor ence." A special rate of 25 cents for children has been made. At intervals last evening Superintendent Davidson read the election returns. REPUBLICAN MAJORITY. It Will Be Between 25,000 and 27,000. At 3 o'clock thi3 afterttoon with re ports from 525 precincts out of 2,300 in the state, the Republican state commit tee estimates the majority for McKinley and Stanley at about 25,000 and 27,000, respectively. This ratio, continued, gives the Repub licans the legislature on joint ballot and insures the election of all the congress men except Wheatley in the Third dis trict, w here late returns give uome hope of victory fot him. The Republican politicians are coming to town on every train. The fusionists are going home. IXTNN REELECTED. Oklahoma Goes Republican by 3,000 Plurality. Guthrie, O. T., Nov. 7. Territorial election returns are comirg in slowly, but enough is known to show that Den nis T. Flynn, Republican, is re-elected delegate to congress over Robert A. Neff by a majority of not less than 3,000. The Republicans claim six members of the council and the election of E. Duffy, anti-fusion Populist, in the Fifth dis trict, who is expected to vote with the Republicans. This would give the Re publicans a minimum majority. The lower house is claimed by the Republi cans by 16. FUSION GAINS. Republicans Concede Loss of Nebraska Legislature. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 7. At 1:30 Dem ocratic National Committeeman Dahl man says the Nebraska legislature will be fusion by 11 majority; that the fusion state ticket is elected by about 5,000 ma jority and that the Bryan electors will win by 1,500. Populist State Chairman Edmiston claims the legislature by from 12 to 14 majority and also asserts the election of the fusion state ticket and the Bryan electors. Republicans are inclined to concede the legislature on the face of present re turns, but they allege fraud in Douglass county (Omaha) and will contest. So far, the returns show gains In the leg islature of 16 members for the fusionists over two years ago. The legislature will elect two United States senators. WHERE THEY GAINED. Chairman Babcock's Estimate on the Next House. Chicago, Nov. 7. Chairman Babcock, of the Republican congressional commit tee, said at 1 o'clock today: "Our returns show that 194 Republi cans have been elected to the Fifty seventh congress with 12 or 15 doubtful districts yet to hear from. We shall un doubtedly have 200, and possibly more member of the house. We have gained seven seats in New York and six in Pennsylvania and have carried Utah. There are still four close districts in Kentucky to hear from, two in Massa chusetts, one in Kansas, two in Ne braska, one in North Carolina, two in Virginia, one in Ohio and one in West Virginia." Salt Lake City and Ogden, Utah, via Santa 3?e Route. On Tuesdays, November 6, 13, 20 and 27, 1900, and February 12, 19 and 26, will sell tickets to the above named points at rate of $23 for one way and $40 for round trip. Everybody reads the State Journal. VICTORY FOR WMIB. (Continued from Third Page.) ever Tompkins, Republican, in the Twelfth congressional district. Owing to the close vote the official count will be made tomorrow. Cleveland, O., Nov. 1. Complete re turns from this (Cuyahoga county) give McKinley 45,146; Bryan 42,227. McKin ley's plurality 2,919. Twentieth district Jacob A, Beidler, Republican, elected. NEW JERSEY. Newark, N. J., Nov. 7.--The delay in the election districts returns as re ceived today continue to increase the Republican pluralities. Essex, Camden and Mercer counties rolled up Immense pluralities for the RcT,ub;ia.a Iliidjon, Hunterdon and Warren alone went Dem ocratic. The house of the assembly will remain just as it was a year ago, but the Democrats lost four senators. The tr-puDiu.-r:3 1u have a iiiajonLy on joint ballot of 40. Six of eight congress men will be Republicans and there is a possibility that the Fourth district v.'hieh was credited to the Democrats by the first returns will be Republican on the corrected vote. In the First, Second, Third, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth congres sional districts the Republicans scored decisive victories. The Seventh went Democratic. NORTH CAROLINA. Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 7. The election In North Carolina was very quiet; returns indicate that Bryan's majority will not be less than 30,000. Seven Democratic congressmen are elected with two in doubt, the Eighth and Ninth districts. It is almost certain that the Republi cans have carried the Ninth. Demo cratic State Chairman Simons is elect ed United States senator to succeed Butler, Populist, by 40,000 over his op ponent, Gen. Julian S. Carr. CALIFORNIA. San Francisco, Nov. 7. Congressman, Second district. Woods, Republican, elected. San Francisco, Nov. 7. It will be sev eral days before the complete result in California will be known. Elnough of the vote is in, however, to show that McKMey's plurality will be at least 20, 000 and that all seven Republican con gressmen have been elected. The only doubtful district is the Second, where Sproul, Democrat, may beat Woods out though the latter has a small lead so far. MARYLAND. Baltimore, Nov. 7. With scattering precincts in various counties of the state to hear from, Maryland's plurality for McKinley and Roosevelt in yesterday's election was 14,146, with a probability that the official count will swell the total to 15,000 or more. Besides placing Mary land's eight electoral votes in the "Mc Kinley column, a solid Republican dele gation to the Fifty-seventh congress was elected with handsome majorities. The members-elect, with their probable majorities, follow: First district, Wm. H. Jackson, 1,427; Second district, A. A. Blakeny, 754; Third district, Frank C. Wachter (re-elected), 2,033; Fourth dis trict, Charles R. Schirm, 1,713; Fifth dis trict, Sidney E. Mudd (re-elected), 4,145; Sixth district, Geo. A. PearTe (re elected), 3,541. Josiah L. Kerr, Repub lican, nominated to fill the vacancy in the Fifty-sixth congress caused by the resignation of Governor Smith, was also elected, but by a reduced majority. MAINE. Portland, Me., Nov. 7. A cut of 20,000 in the Republican plurality of 1896 in a somewhat lighter vote was the result of yesterday's roll In Maine. McKiri ley's majority will vary but a few hun dred from 28,500, a loss of 16 per cent, since 1896, and a Bryan gain of 21 per cent. LOUISIANA. New Orleans, Nov. 7. Additional elec tion returns confirm early reports; 22,500 votes were cast in New Orleans out of a registration of 41.403, Bryan's ma jority being 13,400. The entire six con gressional districts in the state are strongly Democratic, the Lily White Republicans having been swamped in the three districts in which they had candidates. Bryan's majority in the state, based on scattering returns from the country and the result in the city, will be in excess of 30,000. MINNESOTA. St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 7. The only un certainty in the Minnesota election re sults is on the governorship, both par ties claiming it by small figures. Mc Kinley's large majority seems rather to increase than to decrease as the fuller returns come in. All the Republican state candidates, the seven congress men and a large majority of the repre sentatives are elected by big figures. Chairman Bixby adheres to his claim of ten to twelve thousand for Van Zant, Republican, for governor, and Demo cratic Chairman Rosing has come down to 5.000 as his claim for the re-election of Governor LInd. Much fuller returns will be necessary before it can be known positively. 80,000 IN OHIO. Late Estimate on McKinley's Majority in His Own State. Columbus, O., Nov. 7. More complete returns leave only the Third and Twelfth congressional districts as doubt ful In Ohio. In the nineteen undisputed districts the Democrats and Republi cans have carried the same districts as in the last congress, sixteen to three. The Third and Twelfth districts were Democratic. At noon the Democratic state chair man had nothing to announce. Repub lican Chairman Dick said: "The returns from 70 of the 88 counties of Ohio show the plurality of McKinley will approxi mate 80.000. We have elected Nevin in the Third, Tompkins in the Twelfth and Beidelr in the Twentieth district, insur ing 17 Republican members of congress out of 21." A LEAD OF 6a Probable Republican Majority In the House. Chicago, Nov. 7. Dispatches to the Associated Press from 334 of the 357 con gressional districts show that the Re publicans have elected 191, the Demo crats 140, the Silverites 2 and the Popu lists 1. On the remaining 23 districts 11 are represented in the present house by Democrats, 9 by Republicans, 1 by a Sil verite and 2 by Populists. MISCELLANEOUS RETURNS. JACKSON COUNTT, MO., CLOSE. Kansas City, Nov. 7. Jackson county, Missouri, including Kansas City, is very close, and it will take the official re turns to decide the result. Heretofore the county has always gone heavily Democratic. BRYAN LOSES HEAVILY. San Francisco, Nov. 7. 1.244 precincts out of 2,190 outside of San Francisco give McKinlev 81,600, Bryan 62,208. Same precincts in 1896 gave McKinley 74454, Bryan 70,617. A CLOSE VOTE. Dayton, O., Nov. 7. Latest returns from the Third congressional district In dicate the election of R. M. Nevin, Re publican, by 119 votes. DEMOCRATS GIVE UP UTAH. Salt Lake, Utah, Nov. 7. At 1 o'clock today it is impossible to get tabulated returns from the state, but scattering reports further confirm the estimates given. Democrats concede the loss of the national, state and congressional ticket and the legislature has no doubt been carried by the Republicans. CLAIMS ROGERS' ELECTION. Seattle, Wash., Nov. 7. The Demo crats concede the election of Republican electors and Congressman Jones. They claim they have re-electeJ Governor Rogers and elected Ronald for congress. Definite figures on state returns not ob tainable. CLEAN SWEEP IN FLORIDA. Jacksonville, Fla., Nov. 7. The Brvnn ticcluis are elected in this state by 22.000 majority. Sparkman and Davis, Demo cratic members of congress are re-elected, Sparkman by 14.000 majority and Davis by ll.nno majority. Charleston, S. C, Nov. 7.

Bryan car ried 73 of the 75 counties in Arkansas and gets the state by about 55,000. Back county returns may slightly increase these figures. Youngstown, O., Nov. 7. The result of the election at Niles, Ohio, where President McKinley was born, is as foi lows: McKinley, 1,095; Bryan, 455; Mc Kinley's plurality, 640. VOTE OF WEST VIRGINIA. Parkersbursr. W.

CONGRATULATIONS POUR IN. The President Receives Many Mes sages of Felicitation. Canton. O.. Nov. 7. President McKin ley was up and about at an early hour this morning, after a few hours' respite from the excitement of last night. An army of messengers poured in early this morning bringing congratulatory tele-e-rams and friends and neighbors gath ered to extend their congratulations. The president ate breakfast with Mrs. Mc Kinley and Secretary Cortelyou, and then went to the library where he ran over the morning papers and listened to the dispatches as Mr. Cortelyou picKea them from the thousands received. They came from all quarters of the country and the world, many being cablegrams from ambassadors and ministers abroad. Secretary Hay, Secretary Root, and in fact all the members of the cabinet had heon heard from. The president took early occasion to answer Governor Roosevelt's congratulatory menage.. Senator Hanna and many of his assist ants of the Union club, of Cleveland, joined in a message expressing their sat isfaction. All the dispatches breathed a spirit of personal devotion to the pres ident and a patriotic sense of the results. Returns kept coming to the president from points left doubtful last night. With few exceptions they showed even an improvement in the situation over that of last night, although there was no decisive announcement of marked changes. The president was frequently interrupted by callers, many of them being old friends who have known him from childhood. The president invited the groups inside and thanked them for their fervid greetings. His strong, square face, maintained its characteris tic dignity and composure and yet he looked very happy. His replies avoided any reference to the personal triumph involved. Mrs. McKinley also received many lady callers. She showed no signs of fatigue after the excitement of last night and she shared In the happiness prevailing. The presidential party leaves at 1:35 this afternoon for Washington, going over the Pennsylvania road by the regular train due in Washington at 7:44 a. m. Thursday. The two private cars "Olympia and Mercutio" will be attach ed to the train for the accommodation of the party. The cars have not been dec orated in any way thus far and it is probable there will be nothing in the way of marked decoration. The reports from along the route ahead Indicate that there will be a great outpouring of people at the various stops and the trip is likely to partake of the character of a triumphal tour.The president has given no intimation as to whether he will speak to the crowds and this will depend upon his personal in clination at the time, although he will certainly pursue his custom of acknowl edging all greetings, so far as the hour of the day or night permits. On arriving at Washington tomorrow morning the president will give early at tention to the completion of his message to congress. He has been giving some attention to it here, sketching it in the rough, so that the essential features are well nigh complete but there remains to give it exact form. Four years ago the election was Im mediately followed by much cabinet comment. But there Is an entire ab sence of such comment now. as It ap pears to be accepted that the present cabinet will remain at least until tne new administration begins and there is no intimation of a change, even then. The president's intimates say he is hard ly less gratified over the election of a congress which will be in political sym pathy with him than he is of the suc cess of the presidential ti, tet. The president will dine at home at 12:30 and soon thereafter will repair with the party to the train for Washington. The congratulatory exchange between the president and Vice President-elect Roosevelt is as follows: "Oyster Bay, N. Y., Nor. 7. President McKinley, Canton, O. I congratulate you and I congratulate far more the na tion. I feel the most heartfelt gratitude over the result. "THEODORE ROOSEVELT." "Canton, O., Nov. 7. Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Oyster Bay. N. Y. I heart ily appreciate your kind expressions and congratulate you upon concluding in health one of the most memorable cam paigns in our political history. "wm. Mckinley." Detailed returns give Congressman Robert F. Tayler, Republican candidate In McKinley's old district, a majority of 7,000, one of the largest ever given, and over double that of two years ago. Tay ler's conduct of the contest against Brigham Roberts of Utah figured to some extent in the campaign. Senator Davis Improving. St. Paul. Nov. 7. United States Sena tor C. K. Davis passed a decidedly com fortable night and is reported as dis tinctly better today. Flambeau Club to Meet. The Republican flambeau club will meet tonight at the old court bouso. i TODAT'S MARKET REPORT. Chicago, III., Nov. 7.

WHEAT Wheat re flected for a moment the re-election of McKinley and showed an advance of c over previous close. This was an incen tive for some local lonss to take pronta on stuff carried over and the pressure from this course was too much for the market and prices declined rapidly. The news has been of the best character for holders. Early cables were up about a penny and the seaboard sent numerous buying orders here. The Argentine re ported an additional amount of damage and this coming to several different re liable houses was construed a having effect in foreign markets, which were nil reported h'gher. The weakness came from reports that certain mills in northwest were about to close down owing to poor flour demand. Bradstre.f s report show ing an increase of 14 million in world s available supply was an item in favor cf sellers. Exporters claim lare waiting orders at slight decline from opening prices and it is fair to presume the tak ings will be large in the near future. his decline removes a lot of weak holders from the market and puts It in a better position to advance, and with stocks aJid either speculative commodities showing strength, we can not help but feel thla wheat should be bought at present pricM.

H.Munn's reception, this after noon at her home pn Topeka avenue was certainly a delightful affair. The gruesta were invited to meet Mrs. C. E. Munn, Misa Celeste Nellls and Misa Anna Nellis, and the three ladies received with her. The artistic furnishings of the band some rooms leave little to be desired In the way of decorations, and besides a simple arrangement of palms, ferns and a few cut flowers no attempt was made at decorating except in the dining room which was marvelously pretty. At either end of the .polished table was a silver candelabrum holding red candles, while in the center was a high cut glass vase overflowing- with American Beauty roses. Small bon bon dishes of cut glass were placed at intervals on the table. Under each article on the table was a mirror and piece of Battenburg, either large or small, according to the size of the article, and the general effect was a dazzling one of cut glass and mirrors; around each mirror was a wreath of asparagus fern. Coffee was poured by tlte assisting ladies in turn at either end of the table. The upstairs rooms were also decked with palms and ferns and in one, punch was served during the afternoon by some of the assisting ladies. Stein berg's orchestra was stationed in the lower hall. The assisting ladies were, Mrs. Harry Seery, Mrs. Harry Ashby, Mrs. J. W. Farnsworth, Airs. Robert Pierce, Mrs. C C. Baker, Mrs. D. C Nellis, Mrs. Mar garet Wiggin.Mrs. Charles Blood Smith, Mrs. M. O'Brien, Mrs. John Bradley, Miss Mary Lakin, Miss OUie O'Brien, Miss Lee Redden, Miss Helen Smith. All wore handsome evening gowns. The gowns worn by the four receiving ladies were among the handsomest ever worn in Topeka; all of them were im ported. Mrs. L. H. Munn wore a becoming costume of black crepe de chine; the foundation of black silk had a number of fluffy chiffon flounces around the bottom of the skirt which was en train. A few inches above the feet and around the hips was an eight inch band of black Renaissance insertion embroidered with turquoise, over pale blue. Around the low neck was also a band of the inser tion and the long sleeves were of black lace. In her hair she wore a black and blue gauze butterfly arul pompon of chiffon. Mrs. C. E. Munn was in a princess gown of light blue crepe de chine, the skirt made with a long train. On the left side of the skirt at the knee and at the right shoulder were massive bou quets of pink French roses. The neck was low cut and filled in with tucked chiffon, and around this was a bertha of exquisite duchess lace. Between the shoulders was a full bow of pale blue satin ribbon, the long ends falling to the bottom of the skirt. In her hair she wore a blue gauze butterfly. Miss Neilis gown was simple in ap pearance, but elegant in detail; it was made expressly for her in Calais and there is no other like it In existence. The foundation is of cream silk with a deep knee flounce of chiffon. This is veiled in batiste heavily appliqued in Renais sance lace. She wore diamond orna ments in her hair and a handsome neck lace of pearls. Miss Anna Nellis was in a becoming costume of black spangled tulle over shimmering pink silk; the skirt waa en train and the bodice cut very low. In her hair which was dresseu nigh waa an Italian comb of tortoise shell. About two hundred guests called dur ing the afternoon. ChaoeyBrooks. One of the prettiest home weddings of the season was that of Miss Marie Brooks, daughter of Mrs. Margaret Brooks, to Mr. Wilbur Stanton Chaney, which took place this afternoon at the residence on Topeka avenue. The rooms were charmingly decorated for the occasion with palms, ferns, autumn foliage and cut flowers. The ceremony was performed at 3:S0 by Dr. J. D. Countermine of the First Presby terian church. The bridal party stood in the front parlor under a canopy of smilax, the strands extending from the chandelier to the corners of the room, and at the back was a wall of palms and ferns. The other decorations were foliage and fluffy white chrysanthe mums; in the double doors between the parlors was a fret work of bitter sweet. As Miss Brooks and Mr. Chaney enter ed Mr. Lee Forbes played Mendelssohn's wedding inarch and continued through the ceremony with "Hearts and Flow ers." Little Miss Margaret Brooks, niece of the bride, preceded them, car rying a long stemmed American Beauty rose which contained the ring. She wore a dainty blue organdy gown. The guests were received by Mrs. Brooks, Mrs. S. A. Ghaney and Mrs. W. W. Russel of Kansas City; assisting through the rooms were, Mrs. Jonathan Thomas, Mrs. Charles Thomas, Mrs. Sarah Garvey and Miss Garvey.

Lynn, Wis., Nov. 7. While engaged in cutting down a maple tree which grew in his pasture Andrew Olesen discovered a cavity near its base, and on investiga tion found a wooden box about two feet square filled with plunder.

About $200 in gold coin, consisting of eagles and double eagles; several pounds of old gold and silver watch casesv candlesticks and a large quantity of solid silver knives, forks and spoons. This discov ery recalls the fact that some 20 years ago a well-to-do farmer living between here and Romadka, the next station west, was supposed to have been mur dered and liis home robbed and then burned. Last year a skeleton of a human being was discovered burled by the roadside, near by where Olesen found the buried property.

Steamer Orinoco Buns Ashore In Clear Weather. New Tork, Nov. 7. A dispatch to the Herald from Granada says: Official inquiry into the wrecking of the Orinoco has been opened here and promises startling disclosures. The steamer ran ashore on the mainland near Granada, fifteen miles west of the proper course, in clear weather. The lookout man testified that land was not visible until the steamer struck. Chief Officer Peters surprised the court by testifying that he only held a. Canadian coasting master's certificate. The court pressed the question if that was all he had to qualify him for being the chief officer of a passenger steamer, and he replied that it was. He attributed the cause of the disaster to an error of judg ment on his part in mistaking the near ness of land when seen. Kruger En Route to Paris. Paris. Xov. 7.

New Tork, Nov. 7. After a long holi day In Scotland and on the continent Miss Olga Nethersole, the actress, re turned to New Tork on the steamship St. Paul. In her rooms in the Hoffman house she looked happy, despite the de lay caused by the accident to the steam ship, and also despite the detention of her trunks by the customs authorities, due to a blunder in filling out the form of declaration. Miss Nethersole will appear in Wal lack's oh Nov. 10 in "Sapho" and a long tour of this country will follow. She will go as far west as California. Here tofore she never has appeared west of the Mississippi. She will play "Frou Frou," "Carmen" and "Mrs. Tan queray," of course. In Washington she will appear for the first time In "Mag da." The mistake which resulted In the de tention of the fourteen trunks occurred in this way: In filling out the form of declaration for Miss Nethersole General Van Schack, a friend, who was aboard ship with her, registered the actress as an American citizen. The party was en gaged in a discussion on things theatri cal at the time and the error was not discovered until the customs inspector opened her baggage. As the wardrobe far exceeds in value the $100 which the native American is permitted to bring in free of charge, the inspectr, of course, held the trunks. She will make a second declaration tomorrow and the baggage will be released. Resolutions of Respect. Resolutions of condolence by Evergreen Camp No. 1511 M.

Fraternally submitted, F. N. BINNS. HENRT H. MILLER, H. G. BOND, Committee. A ROAST On Temperance People. A little woman out In Tower Hill, 111., takes' a fall out of the temperance peo ple in a letter containing the following: "It is amusing to see some staunch tem perance people who would as soon be caught stealing a horse as to be seen go ing into a saloon, that are tied down, hard and fast, to their coffee cups as much as an old whiskey sot Is to his morning dram. They give the same ex cuse that the old sot does, they act the same way, the habit is Just as fixed. Their dram floes not as quickly intoxi cate, but its steady use just as surely breaks down the nervous system and ruins them physically and mentally, fre quently setting up some fixed form of chronic disease. "Consistency, thou art a Jewel, just as much today as of old. Either break away from your slavery tea, ceffee, or any other pernicious habit you may have, or quit preaching to others. I know what I am talking about, for I was a coffee slave for a time and can speak truthfully of its effects. It al most ruined my nervous system, caused constipation, headaches and sleepless ness. I suppose if I had drank enough at one time to make me entirely drunk, I might have felt easier. "Finally the- stuff began to cause coughing after my meals; then I con cluded to part company with the demon, and at once, upon the advice of some friends, took up Postum Food Coffee. The change was marvelous. I passed from an invalid to a healthy person in a very short time. I had quit a drug and taken up a strong, powerful, nourishing food in liquid form, and owe my present health of Postum Food Coffffee." Name will be furnished by Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich. The banks were closed at noon yes terday. It's all over now, even most of the shouting. The century ball committee Is In ses sion this afternoon. Those contingent post-election Im provements are now due. Washburn meets K. U. on the home grounds next Saturday. Mrs. T. J. Anderson is critically ill at her home, 215 Clay street. The usual number of election drtinks were on the streets last night- The paving of Woodlawn avenue, Pot- win, will soon be completed. Many people received and discussed the election returns in their homes last night. "Coin's Financial School" closed with a seven-hour farewell on Sixth avenue yesterday. The iron girtlers for the roof of the ad dition to the federal building are being put in place. It Is peculiar how many out of the way places may be found to convert into voting places. The movement for a trap shooters' club at Lake View seems to have al most died out. The Auditorium anti-smoking rule was broken as grievously as the Ten Commandments last night. Query from the election booth: "Whereabouts do I make a mark for McKinley and Roosevelt?" The shouts of the crowd watching State Journal bulletins were heard in Potwin and Lowman Hill. Everyone was allowed to smoke and expectorate just as they chose in the Auditorium last night, and the dirt was deep. The church building being erected by the Cumberland Presbyterians just east of the Potwin Place station is nearly completed. Election day was clear in nearly every state in the union. No rain fell in the morning, but snow began to fall in Wis consin at about 9:30. Wm. Howerton, Republican, was elect ed trustee of Rossville, though the Popu lists carried the township for the na tional and state ticket. The janitors will probably have four days' work to clean the Auditorium if it takes two days to clean it after an or dinary entertainment. Hunters may be seen In numbers al most every day starting out for duck or anything else, but seldom are they seen to bring anything back with them. Mr. Chas. F. Fairer, a successful miner of Dawson, N. W. T., on his way to New Tork, is stopping in Topeka a few days visiting Miss Kmma L. Kelly. Kansas avenue was well strewn with papers and coated with dirt after elec tion night was over. The Whitewings had house-cleaning early this morning. It is expected that the game Satur day between the K. U. team and the Washburn, eleven will be about as ex citing a game as will be seen in To peka this season. A Second ward McKinley, Curtis, Ha- zen and Nichols voter, marked the first Republican elector, the three county candidates and didn't trouble to vote for any other officers. At 10 o'clock last night Capt. J. G. Waters posted the following bulletin, surmounted by a skull and cross-bones: "I am ready to take my medicine. Good night. J. G. W." Some of the Judges of the election were so puffed up with the importance of their position that they acted as though they might be judges of the su preme court of the United States. The Auditorium floor this morning looked like an election returns place might be expected to thick with dirt, cigar-stumps and tobacco juice in the portions that had been occupied. The police have a fanciful notion that it is wrong to sing, and refused to al low a quartette to serenade last night at about 10:30. If the quartette was as bad as some which essay to sing the police were justified. A dog fight on East Eighth avenue drew a big crowd yesterday afternoon. The under-dogs proprietor stabbed the conquering bull pup in the flank, and, though an old man, was knocked down by the latter's owner. Gen. J. K. Hudson voted in the Third ward. The judges found his ticket this morning. It was straight Republican and his name was written at the top in bold letters. He wanted tha board to know how he had voted. People often wonder who are the girls who march around the streets in double file in the western part of the city each morning. They are the Bethany col lege girls, and they are taking their regular morning exercise. The city council will meet tonight. It is hardly likely that they can attend to all of the business that will come be fore them, so it is thought that another meeting will be called for next Monday night. The question of the confirmation of Chief Stahl may come up tonight. Football was played on the lime kiln grounds Monday between the Lime Kiln and the Harrison school teams, tne re sult of which has probably not yet been settled. The Lime Kiln people say that the score was 5 to 6 in their favor, while the Harrison school beys claim that the umpire called it a tie game. JOY IN WASHINGTON. Demonstration Was Nearly Equal to Inauguration Times. Washington, Nev. 7. Jubilation here over President McKinley's re-election broke all bounds. Never, except at in auguration times, did such crowds surge up and down Pennsyvania avenue.cneer ing, singing and blowing horns. In the absence of the president there was no gathering at the White House, and such advices as were received there were conveyed by telephone to members of the cabinet now in Washington. Only three are here, Secretaries Hay, Gage and -Root, the latter reaching the city during evening, but Secretary Gage was at the treasury department, and with a number of friends heard the re sults there. At the war department Secretary Root, General Miles and Adjutant Gen eral Corbin were on hand and remained utnil late in the evening. At rtepuun can and Democratic headquarters offi cers of committees were engaged In fig uring on the complexion of the next house of representatives. Representative Loudenslager was in charge of Republican headquarters and Chairman Richardson of the Democratic congressional committee came down from New Tork, where he has been much of the time during the campaign, to as sume charge. At Democratic headquarters the news, which began coming in early in the ev ening, was so gloomy that access to the rooms of the Democratic committee at the Metropolitan hotel was denied to the public before 9 o'clock. At 11 o'clock Chairman Richardson declined to make any statement about the political com plexion of the next house, although it seemed beyond question to political ob servers in Washington that the 57th house would be Republican by a work ing majority. DRIFTING. if you are allowing catarrh to eat its way through your body, you are like the man in the boat drifting upon a long river which ends with destruction. Catarrh is a systemic disease. Contrary to general opinion, it does not confine itself to the head and throat. It attacks the stomach, the liver, the bowels, the lungs, any organ of the body. The only way to cure it is to cleanse the whole system by a thorough use of PE-RU-SMA- the well-known catarrh cure. There are hundreds of people dosing themselves for this, that and the other, whose sole trouble is a catarrhal condition of one or more organs of their body. If these people will take Pe-ru-na it will make them well. It will keep the grip away, it will prevent colds, and all of the so-called winter diseases, which merely mean that the mucous membrane of the entire body needs toning up and cleaning. Pe-ru-na is the medicine to do it. There are no substitutes. Pe-ru-na is the only systemic catarrh remedy yet advised. "Lectures on Chronic Catarrh' is a complete treatise on catarrhal diseases. it treats of every phase and variety of summer catarrh, winter catarrh, and the catarrhal affections peculiar to women. This book contains ninety-five pages, is instructively illustrated, and will be found very useful in the fam- ily.

Trouble in Opera Company. New Tork, Nov. 7. It may be said no longer that the Grau-Savage English opera company, at the Metropolitan, is one happy family. Discord, with a large D, has appeared, and one of the leading prima donnas, Miss Minnie Tra cey an American girl, by the way has received notice that her connection with the company will cease on December 1. Miss Tracey is authority for" the state ment that she received notice of dis missal after she had refused to accept the alternative of resigning. She speaks with deep feeling of two unpleasant hours spent by her in Mr. Savage's pri vate office, where she was strongly urged to resign. All One Way. San Juan de Porto Rico, Nov. 7. It Is estimated that 75,000 Republicans vot-d at the election yesterday for a commissioner to congress and members of the house of delegates. Not more than 200 fedTain voted. The election was orderly. Thre 8r? no reports of d s urbnces. Communi cation with the interior is slow. Cubans Are Learning Baseball. Santiago de Cuba, Nov. 7.
