FRAUDULENT BALLOTS
A Curious Ease Now Eeing Investiga.
ted At Cincinnati.

Cincinnati, Nov, 1S.-Charles s. Fisher, a
young lawyer and prominent worker In the
republican party, was before United States
Commissioner Hooper on charge of at.
tempting fraud upon the ballot box in the
first ward in thi, city at the last October cleo
ton. He was arrested at tho instigatiou Of
District Attorney Richards, and tho affidavit
was made AT Richards request by the two re-
publican judges on duty at the polls.
Fisher was supervisor of election nj that pre-
cinct. Tho testimony of j. o. Stowe, one Of
the republican judges, was that while ho was
taking out tho ballots he saw bunch of
ballots beside the box, which he knew he had
notplaced there, aud was about to brush on
the floor, when Fisher said they
were stamped. The ballot box i
so constructed that when tickets are deposited
10 1t each one receives stamp on the back.
Finding these stamped, they were counted.
Atterward, on three different occasions,
Fisher pointed out stamped tickets on the
tloor two each time, and they were counted
At last Moore, the democratic Judge, felt q
ticket fall on his knee, and said he saw an
arm on that side of him. He found another
ticket on the floor. He did not then accuse
Fisher of dropping the tickets, but said
Fisher was standing on the side from which
the tickets came. Upon examining these
tickets closely it WAS found the stamp diff
fered from the one then in use in the manner
of abereyiating the word precinct" Upon
completing the count II was found that there
were fourteen moro ballots in the box than
name, on the poll book. The judges then
went through tho ballots and found fourteen
with the wrong stamp on the back, oil re-
publican tickets. They were thrown out.
The testimony is in progress.

FRAGRANT BREATH AND PEARLY

Teeth are easily obtained by cleansing
your teeth daily with that justly popular
dentifrice, SOZODONT. Composed of rare
antiseptie herbs, it imparts wilderness to
the teeth, delicious aroma to the breath.
and preserves intact, from youth to old age,
the teeth. Aeidity of the stomach will des-
troy the strongest teeth unless its effects
are counteracted with SOZODONT, and
this pure tooth-wash protects the dental
surfaces by removing every impurity that
adheres to them. Ask your druggist for
SOZODONT. j17

STOCKS.

A noticeable feature in yesterdays market
was the sudden advance of Union Con. to "a,
and few willing to part with it at those figures.
Mexican and Ophir had quite recovery also
from yesterday market, and in fact the entire
Cemstock market was strong. The same may
also be said of the outside stocks.
Between sessions there was not much
change worthy of note in the Comstecks, but
Mount Potosi, of the Columbus list, struggled
up to 3. 40 bid.
In tho second session the entire Comstoek,
except perhaps Caledonia, was somewhat ssft.

of stocks will not without q struggle submit
to the injustice of paying taxes on the value
of their shares besides paying on the mines in

From the Sandwich Islands.

DIR. f. ii. ENDERs, surgeon Of the
Sandwich Islands under employment of
the Government, arrived Tuesday night
and is registered at the Laclede, He
returns after an absence of six years
from st, Louis. and is accompanied by
his family. For the past six years DR..
Enders has had sanitary control Of
three islands of the group, viz. Mani,
Molokai and Lanai. On the island of
Molokai there is hospital for lepers,
now containing IUU patients infected
with that disorder. The leprosy is in
curable, there never having been "a
single case cured. 1t is, however,
greatly alleviated by medical treat
ment, and is now on the decrease. The
talstatistics howafavorable condition
of health, and, on evidence, the Doctor
states that out of so white children
under his observation during the past
six years there was only one death.
The cultivation of sugar is the princi-
pal source of wealth, and some of the
planters have become rich. A couple
of parties, who commenced on small
scale, sold out recently for $1,000, 600.

The reciprocity treaty between the
islands and the United States has been
in existence four years and still has
three years 10 run. 1t Is of great ad-
vantage to both countries and should
by all means be renewed. as the United
States in particular should not leopard
ize its interests, and be supplanted by
other powers, as it would be should the
existing treaty be abrogated or allowed
to expire.
There are about 10000 Chinese OF
the islands. Except for their labor
they are of no use or advantage TO the
country.
Before the Chinese came to the islands
there was no necessity for locks anC
bolts 10 protect property. Good order
prevails and the laws are strict, but the
country nevertheless is an isolated
place TO live in, as there is very LITTLE
society or the diversions Of more favored
communities. The Doctor brings hi

of education, and he will return to tn

"a Pleasant Girl.

H
A TRAVELLER in Norway, last SUMMER,
came to village early one morning,
and was struck by the air Of gloom which
pervaded the street. Unable 70 speak
a word of the language, he could not
ask the cause of this, and concluded
that some sickness or financial troublO
had fallen upon the community. AS
the day wore towards noon, however,
the houses were closed, shop-windows
were covered, all trade and business
ceased. 1t was death, thenP Pres
emily he saw the people gathering for
the funeral. There were the village of
fioials. the noblcmen from the neighbor-
ing chateau. and apparently every
man, woman and child in the village.
Ii must be some dignitary of the church
who was dead, or some county official.
As he stood watching the crowds pass
ing down the little rocky street, he
caught sight of the face of a German
known to him. He beckoned to him.
"The town has lost some great mag
nate apparentlyP' he said.
"Ah, no. 1t is only a young maiden
who is dead. No She was not beau
tiful nor rich But oh, such a pleasant
girl, monsieur! All the world seems
darker now that she is deadrl
Ii is a singular fact that, when we
reach middle life and look back, il is
not the beautiful, nor the brilliant, nor
the famous people whom we have
known, that we remember with the
keenest regret; but some simple, sim
cere, pleasant soul, whom we treat
ed as an everyday matter while sho
was with us.
Go into a family, or a social circle, or
even into ballroom, and the woman
who has the most friends there, as n
rule, is not the belle. nor the wit, nor
the heiress, nor the beauty; but some
homely, charming little body, whose
fine tact and warm heart never allow
her to say Il wrong word in wrong
| place.
The "pleasant women are the at
traction Chat everywhere holds society
and homes together. Amy woman,
however poor or ugly, may be one OF
them; but she must first be candid,
/ honorable, unsellish and loving. If she
is these, the world win be better and
happier for every day of her life, and
as in the case of this poor Norwegian,
il will ''seem darker when sheis dead. p"

melon occupies the place on the ground
