THE ELECTION.

PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. 1.-Two
hundred and forty-eight towns in
Maine give Conner 56,9l8, Talbot
1920. The same towns last year
gave Conner 43,lS4, Roberts 39,47S.
The Republican net gain in these
towns is 9,292. Returns from twenty
towns in Somerset county give re-
publican majority of S66 for Conner.
The whole county ticket is elected and
5 of the Representatives are republic
cans.
All but three towns in Androscog-
gin county give Connor 4,25l, Talbot
$3.50. Gage (soft money! 2S4. Last
year the same towns gave 3,1O3 re-
publican and 2,47O democrats. The
remaining towns last year gave Con-
nor 25S and Roberts 2O5 votes.
All the Republican representatives
and the whole county ticket is elected.

Something New in Mosquitoes.

Close observers will remark that
this season presents two separate and
distinct races of mosquitoes-the reg
ular old breed that sing and buzz in
your ears and scare you almost into
spasms, and the new one, speckled
and spotted in appearance. This new
tribe possesses even more deviltry
than the old, for they are of the regu-
lar sneaking order and never tell you
when they are ready to strike. They
will step up, steal bite, and quietly
leave. 1t is no use for You to slap at
them. If you do, you will in all prob
ability slap yourself, while the ring
s.reaked and striped little cuss will
wink and point his hind legs at you
in such scornful manner that you are
almost aggravated beyond endurance.
The appearance of this last pest.h how
ever, is indicative of the end Of Sum-
mer. He is known as the Fall mos
quito, and can easily be detected by
his crawling propensities. Summer
mosquitoes never crawl; they just
light and 60 to business on the spot.

for each letter, but what letters they
were! Poor Dwire lost money and
had much trouble and killed himself
at the Virginia Hotel, st. Louis, in
1860. The first house built in Wapel-
10 county still stands on the Wilson
place, near Agency City. 1t was
built in very substantial manner, of
hewed logs, in 1889, for the Indians,
on section which was called the
"model farm" 1t is now weather.
boarded and looks like a comfortable
frame house. As late as 1916 il had
port holes pierced for musketry, still
visible. In addition to this model
farm, the government, which was then
as now, engaged in supporting and
civilizing the Indians, also had big
farm in cultivation in the bottom
around and about the B. & M. depot
here, and in 1910 and lS4l govern
ment employees and friendly Indians
harvested an immense crop of whea,
in that neighborhood. Major Johr
Beach, Indian Agent then, and lately
deceased, used to hold councils will
the Indians under the shade of tret
located at spring in the rear of thu
Episcopal church, and in front o
Judge Hendcrshott's present resi-
dence.
The first house built in Ottumwi
was erected May 10th, lS43.

A Transcript from the Assessors
Books. w..
New York Tribune.

The figures in the table given be-
low, showing the amount Of income
tax paid by Gov. Tilden from 1862 to
1873, inclusive, are taken from the
books of the United States Internal
Revenue Assessor, and are now UNI
der investigation by Commissioner
Raum. The figures in the first col
umn give the year in which the in
come was earned, the amount not
being returned until the following
year. In the year 1868 two assess
ments were paid, the first being the
annual tax Of per cent. on 81, 1927 and
2 per cent. on 1886, and the other be-
ing the special war tax of 5 per cent.
on the total amount of $14,992. In
1854, Mr.. Tilden made no return, and
his income was estimated by the
Assessor. On the amount thus assess
ed Mr.. Tilden paid the tax. In 1865,
as in the previous year, no income
was reported, and the tax, with q
penalty of Is per cent, was collected
on the Assessors estimate of income.
In the following year the penalty was
increased to SO per cent, no return
made. The only year from 1864 to
1872, in which Mr.. Tilden made any
return of income was in 1870, when
he paid tax ON $l4,364 The tram
script from the Assessors books is as
follows:

lncerdiavIsm In Spittoons,

Look out for your wooden spit
toons filed with sawdust; they are
extra hazardous. Early this summer
a lawyers Office in Chelsea, an 'an-
mex" Of Boston, fitted with convent
ence of this sort, ignited from empty
ings of a mecrschaum, towards the
close of the day, and before morning
had not only started blaze, but had
melted the water pipe against which
it stood, and both combined caused a
loss of $1,000, and there wasn't much
of fire either. This last week a spit
toon of this sort in the Office of lard
oil warehouse in Boston was sudden
ly discovered to be i'm a blaze, and
was hastily dashed into the street.
The only possible conjecture for the
fire was discarded cigar stump. The
loss in the Young Mems Christian
Association Rooms, Meridian street,
East Boston, July 26, was from the
same cause. The sawdust in the spit
toOn had been set Oh fire the evening
before by the smokers cigar stubs
and pipe ashes, and had smouldered
along, burning downward a hole
the floor and plastering un-
derneath just the size Of the spit-box,
and set fire to the stock of goods.
The fire and smoke did considerable
damage, including a smoke loss on
the paraphernalia of an Odd Fellows
lodge in the fourth story.

General Hurlbut has been one of
the ablest and most influential men,
bers on the floor of Congress for the
past six years. He has not, however,
peddled out the patronage of his dis
trict to the entire satisfaction of all
/. the patriots of that bailiwick, so that
while he has been in Washington,
faithfully discharging his duties, the
pismires have combined against him,
and stung him to death politically, at
Elgin, the other day. William Ia
throp, of Rockford. said to be an able
and reputable lawyer, is the man
who has secured the nomination, ap.
parently at the expense Of a rupture
which will endanger the district, OF
at least secure new and uninfluen
tial member.

disposed to furnish tail-end commit
tee-men this year in excess of tn
probable demand.

Particulars of the Arrest Of Boss
TWEED.

MADRID, Sept. 1.-THE following
are the additional particulars of the
arrest of Tweed. Capt. Gen. Jovel-
lar, at Havana, received intelligence
that Tweed had disembarked at San
tiago de Cuba and notified the au-
thorities there. Before the latter
could take action Tweed embarked
on sailing vessel (the Carmen)
bound to Vigo. Capt. Gen. Jovellar
telegraphed to the Madrid Govern
ment, which fearing the Carmen
might go to some other port request
ed the authorities at all Spanish ports
to examine persons on board of all
vessels named Carmen. There are
twelve Spanish vessels of that name.
A portrait of Tweed being indispen-
sible the Spanish authorities obtain
ed and made copies of a caticature in
an American journal, representing
him as beating child supposed to
typify American justice. This Carl
cature led the Spanish authorities and
reporters of Spanish papers to be-
lieve Tweed had been kidnapping
children, hence in the first official an
nouncement received of the arrest of
Tweed it was stated that he had been
arrested for Kidnapping American
children. Tweed is confined on the
Isle of st Simon, Vigo Bay, where he
is undergoing quarantine. AT the
expiration of his quarantine he will
be surrendered to the United States
Representative. AS there are no di-
rect steamers between Spain and
North America Tweed will be sent to
Cuba and from there to New York.
