Adolphus Andrew Hoagland of Shade
vile, Va, is 20 years old, and has had
three wives. The first was q widow
when he married her, and had little
daughter. When his wife died her
daughter was widowed mother, and
Hoagland, within few years, married
her. Ten years ago the second wife died.
Her daughter was then fifteen. Five
years elapsed, and then Hoagland again
married his daughter, who was also
his step granddaughter. She is still
living, and her husbands age, aside
from the fact that she had no daughter
when she became his wife, precludes the
idea of his peculiar system being carried
any further. Hoagland declares that
his matrimonial experience, covering
about fifty years, has been exceptionally
happy. The last two wives inherited
the good qualities of their mothers, and
all were so much alike that they have
seemed to him the same woman, with
youth occasionally renewed. There are
children by all three wives and endless
complications in relationship.

Cheap Light.

The Nevada Independent says: A
correspondent tells how some fishermen
were surprised while fishing at Pyramid
Lake. They camped in small valley
and built a fire which spread and, great
ly to their surprise, set fire to jets of gas
from natural wells. They found no less
than nine of the jets within circle Of
about five rods. The gas was found to
proceed from little holes from half an
inch to an inch in diameter and the
flames were ten to twelve feet high.--
They left the jets burning when they
broke camp and few days later they
found the wells still burning. A Piute
Indian went with them. Lighting a
stick he went some rods further up the
valley and touched off dozen or more
jets that were fed from holes upon and
around little hillock.

A Cute Dog.

Ohio is now trying to get up a reputa-
ton for smart dogs as well as statesmen.
From that direction comes story of an
intelligent dog who was sent to a
butchers at Logan, in that State, with
five cents every morning, for which the
butcher always gave him piece of raw
meat. One day he brought dollar in
stead of five cents, and seemed to wag
his tail as though expecting q bigger
piece of meat than usual. The butcher
investigated and found that the dogs
master was gone away, and that the dog,
finding himself neglected, had opened
the money-drawer and taken out q sill
yer dollar.

The works have been 10 operation about
fourteen months, and the building and ma
chinery originally cost over half million
dollars. From time to time additional ma
chinery has been added and improvements
made until II is said the works were the
most improved In the country. Some Of
the machinery and new inventions will be
difficult to replace. Mr.. Davis, Superin-
tendent Of the works, says it is not likely
the factory will be erected on the same
site. The company will put up another
factory rs soon as they can settle up their
business. He did not know the amount of
the insurance.
eB-At the Susquehanna rolling mill,
Lancaster, Thomas Thomas, aged thirteen
years, while at work at the rolls, was
struck Ia the back by red-bot bar of iron.
1t came out of his breast, narrowly mis-

drew it out with tongs, and the best med
ical aid was summoned, but the boys re.
covery is considered impossible.

composed OF cars loaded with cattle over
the embankment. The cars tumbled
over on pof the engine and each other.
Engineer Devlne was thrown under
the engine, from which perilous position
he was removed after considerable dig
ging. He was badly scalded and cut up,
but may recover. Fireman Bellevue
was badly bruised and cut up, but not
fatally. One other man was injured
slightly. Almost 100 head of cattle were
killed, and the scene at the wreck was
a horrible one. The train men say 1t is
the worst wreck they ever saw.

THE vote for Mayor in New York
city was an exceedingly close one. The
majority for Hancock was about $4,000,
while Grace for Mayor only made his
election by about 1900. He was nomi-
mated as Kelly's candidate In the Cath
ole interest and the prejudice against
the Catholic influence in the public
schools came near defeating him. The
result shows very conclusively that the
people of this country are very sensitive
when any danger threatens the public
schools, and when occasion demands it,
are ready to cast aside party prejudice.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, d. c., November 3, 1850.
The people of Washington are disfranchised
at home-but probably many of them did
good service yesterday for both parties in the
neighboring States of Maryland and Virginia.
DR.. Watts never said truer thing than that
the devil fluids mischief for idle hands. There
are over 5000 men In the District of Columbia
who can not vote at home but who would be
entitled to vote any where else in the coun-
try. 1t was too much to expect that they
would stay at home yesterday with two States
and half dozen doubtful Congressional Dis
trcts within easy reach. Hundreds of them,
white and black, Democrats and Republicans,
undoubtedly voted where they had no right at
all to vote. II is probably useless to ask Con-
gress to give the people of this District suf-
frage, but II ought to devise some means of
keeping them at home on days of Presidential
elections.
Among Democrats here this morning there
is general feeling of hostility towards Bar
mum, Chairman of the National Committee.
There Is no uniformity In the charges, some
alleging one thing and some another, but the
disgust at his management is universal. There
is complain against Jewell, too, among Re-
publicans, but that is swallowed up in reioic-
Ing over the result. Future campaigns will be
State and local Committees, If one may Judge
by current opinion here.
What surprised me most to day, in conver.
satlon with Republicans and Democrats was
the unanimity with which they expressed their
dlsapprobation of the personal part of the late
canvass, and their entire confidence in both
candidates. / have heard higher praise OF
Hancock to-day, from Republicans, than 1
should have thought possible week ago.
believe from my own knowledge of the Gen.
eral. that hardly too much can be said In his
praise. When the trash of the campaign is
brushed away he will be thoroughly and very
highly regarded by every one. What is known
as the "milltary feeling" here has been against
MIN In this campaign, but no man could posi-
bly, stand higher among the military men than
the General does to-day.
1t is proposed by those who originated the
"Towpath Clu bs,' in this city, to continue
their organization and to aid In the forming of
clubs throughout the country. The club first
organized here, and which, l suppose has the
credit of organizing the idea of club based on
an incident in General Garfleld's early life,
was one of the most efficient agencies In the
late campaign. Its members were sent to all
the States where they could do good, and its
influence were seen all over the country. The
Idea was happy one, and those Republicans
who perpetuate it as now proposed will per-
haps serve their party efficiently.

abolished in nearly all of them. The last
Canton to vote this has been that Of
Schwytz, where the popular vote resulted
in majority of 2,08s, against 456 in favor
of the measure. All the cantons which
have re-establisbed capital punishment as
yet are Roman Catholic; but there has been
such an increase in the crimes against life
that the other cantons are likely to sanction
the infliction of the death sentence.

ELECTION RETURNS.

The result of the elections on Tuesday
last, show surprising Republican gains
Gen. Garfield will receive the vote every
Northern State except New Jersey and
Nevada, and at this writing the result
in the latter State is uncertain, and the
majority will be small either way
Pennsylvania gives a majority of about
4,0O0, Massachusetts 81, 900, Iowa 10000,
New York $1,000, Maine 1900, Ohio
$4,000, Michigan $4,000, Wisconsin
$4,000, Illinois $4,000, Vermont $4,000,
Kansas $4,000, and other States North,
corresponding large msjorities. In the
South the Democratic majorities were
large, but In New Jersey the majority is
about 1000 for Hancock, while the Legis-
lature ie Republican. The changes In
Congress are also marked. In New
York the Republicans lose three men,
bers, but the change in the other States
show gains that promise to make the
House very close, and perhaps give
small Republican majority. The Re-
publicans carry the Legislatures in the
Northern States where U. s. Senators
lare to be elected, SO that in next Con-
Aress the Senate will be a tie. In this
Aatorial district, which was supposed
W be surely democratic, G. III. Smiley,
Rep, is elected by 1877 majority. Fish
er, Republican, in this Congressional
district is also elected by majority
of over 600.
In this County the whole Republican
ticket is elected by majorities ranging
from 92 to 1888. For particulars regard
ing the vote in this county see 5th page.
The New York Herald of Saturday
sums up the result of the election as
follows: In the electoral college Gar
field will have 2l9 votes, Hancock $50,
and of the popular vote Garfield will
have 10000 majority over the combined
vote of Weaver and Hancock. The
Senate will be tie and the House of
Representatives will have three of n
Republican majority.

desirable change. The Democrats made
but feeble attempt to convince the vo-
ter that change of administration was
