CINcINSATI, November 2, l2 M.-The
day is beautifully clear and bright, and
the election is progressing very quietly.
From the indications at noon it appears
that the vote will be lighter than at the

the Democrats exhibit less activity about

weather is well near perfection, bright
and clear. The election is passing off
quietly. A full vote is being pollad, and
in the several wards one-third OF the vote
was polled before seven o'clock this
morning. The leading citizens mani.
tested their interest in the election by
being at the polls by hundreds soon al
ter daylight, and many are serving as
rallying and challenging committees.

er was unusually fine throughout the
State, and the indications are that a
heavy vote has been polled. The re-
turns of tc-day's election will be COM
plred with the vote for Governor in

majority.
Gartield's Majority Estimated ct Over

Columbus, at $50 We have re-
turns from l50 precincts, wards and
townships which show net Republican
gains OF 100 The indications are that

BY this time the husband is asleep or has

ASEcDoTE OF A MINIsTER.-A min
lister who had been preaching on trial
in 4 country church in Northern Penn
sylvania, was tackled by an old preach
er and told that il would please the
congregation greatly il he would quote
4 little Latin, Greek and Hebrew in his
sermons, as il taking for granted his
auditors understood il, when in reality
none Of them knew anything about
those languages. The preacher was
puzzled. He didn't know anything Of
Hebrew, Greek or Latin himself, but he
was native Wales, and thought they
wouldn't know the difference il he gave
them little Welsh every time. So he
made Scripture quotation in his first
sermon to them, and said "This pass
age, brethren, has been slightly altered
in the translation. Il is only in the
original Hebrew that you can grasp its
full meaning. I will read il to you in
Hebrew, so that you may comprehend
IL more exactly" and he gave them the
passage in very good Welsh. They
liked il first rate, and presently he gave
them some Welsh rs Greek, and then
some more rs Latin. Then he was 60
ing to give them the Chaldaic Version
in Welsh, when he saw Welshman sit
ting by the door, almost bursting with
suppressed laughter. The preacher
didn't let on, but, instead of the quota
ton he was going to give, said in Welsh:
