the meteors do not fall vertically, nor,
even if they did, do men always stand
upright, we must take larger surface
for each person than that which he pre-
sents as seen from above when stand
ing. We many take half square yard
for the adult and perhaps quarter of a
square yard for the average human be-
ing. Now, the earth's surface contains
about 200, 100000 square miles, each
containing about 100000 yards, or
l., 900, 900 quarter square yards-in all,
2, 400, 600, ,0O0, ,000, 900 quarter square
yards-whereas the human race oc-
cupies only 800, 200, 900 quarter square
yards. Thus the chance of a single
meteorite striking some one is as Is in
"a, 900, 900, or as in 1 600, 900; and if A.
900 meteorites fall per annum the
chance of one death occurring in any
given yoar is about {00th. On the aver
age one death by a meteor stroke might
be expected to occur in 400 years. If
it is true, as l have seen recently stated,
that nine such deaths have occurred in
the last 900 years, it would appear prob
able that 1000 meteorites, instead of
1000, annually reach the earth.''

Vienna, Jan. 7.-Notwithstandin
all the peaceful professions Of Russia,
she is secretly continuing her prepara-
tions for war. The directors of her
rifle manufactures have been directed
by the war Office to quietly prepare as
many breech leaders as possible, and
therefore 10000 will be MANUFACTURED
at Sestromiez; $4,000 at Isevsez and
500, 900 abroad.
A very trustworthy correspondent,
who has just visited all the larger
towns in Russian Poland, ON his way
via Warsaw and wilma, to Ria, writes
that not only all the larger towns in
that district, but also the places which
previously had either small garrison,
or none at all, are now crowded with
troops. This is chiefly the case in re-
spect to those places lying west of War
saw, on the route from Czen nstochow to
wilma and Dunaberg. In the three
governments bordering upon Germany
and Austria, viz: Warsaw, wilma and
Keiff, are quartered nineteen foot and
nine horse divisions, besides great
force of fully equipped batteries, and
they are being constantly increased by
fresh arrivals.

the croWQ IN the mouse. Rounds of
cheering and hand-clapping from the
house occasionally reached the senate
chamber and disturbed its stiffness.
After prayer by the chaplain, the
journal was read.
A, committee of seven ON senatorial
votes was appointed, on motion of
Hawes, of Cumberland, and commit
tee of five on gubernatorial votes.
The committee on gubernatorial votes
reported as follows: Whole number of
votes 13S, $50, necessary to choice Co.
404; Daniel F. Davis 6S, ,967, Joseph L..
Smith, 47,673, Alonzo Garcelon q, ,S51,
Bion Bradbury 264, remainder scatter
ing for several candidates; no choice.
The house then proceeded to the selec-
tion of two names to be sent to the
senate, the whole roll being called, and
each member, as his name was called,
coming forward and depositing his bal
lot. As Sprague, of Neazie, who had
deserted the fuslonists, came forward,
there was tremendous applause. He
voted for Daniel F. Davis. The result
of the balloting was as follows: Daniel
f. Davis So, Bion Bradbury 81, Alonzo
Garcelon l. The names of Daniel F.
Davis and Bion Bradbury were then
sent to the senate, which was crowded.
A vote was taken for governor and 10
votes thrown, all for Davis, who was
then declared by the president legally
chosen as governor of the state. Sew
eral fusion members were present,
but none participated. The announce
msnt was followed by applause. A
joint convention was then held for the
election of seven councillors. Samuel
j. Chadbourne was chosen secretary
of state.
AT Gas p. m. another convention
was formed. The people had waited
for this, not "a man moving from the
densely packed hall. A committee,
representing both branches, waited up
on the governor elect (Davis, and
soon reported that he would forthwith
attend upon the convention to take
the oath of Office. He entered the hall
attended by the council, amid great
applause. After quiet had been re-
stored Gov. Davis, in an impressive
manner, took the oath of Office and
delivered an address.
General Chamberlain has issued gem
eral orders announcing that Davis has
qualified as governor, and that his own
duties are at an end, and also stating
that all military authority now eman-
ates from Governor Davis. He also
gives honorable mention to his subordi-
mates, to Mayor Nash, to Sheriff Libby
and Others who have materially aided
in maintaining peace and quiet during
the recent excitement, as well as to the
people of Maine at large.
Secretary of state Chadbourne took
possession of his office tonight, and
appointed as his deputy James A.
Smith, of Skowhegan.

THE LAW OF THE CASE.
Why Benjamin Daniels Comes From
the Penitentinry for a New Trial.

After Judge Peck took charge of the
present term, which was on the ODD
day of December, the defendant Benja-
min Daniels, filed a motion based upon
the record, to vacate the sentence
which had been pronounced upon him
at this term and before that date. On
the 14th inst, Judge Peck granted the
motion, delivering on the occasion, the
following oral opinion: ut appears by
the record that the defendant was in
dicted for a felony, tried at this term;
was present in court during the trial
until the jury retired under the charge;
that he was then remanded to the
county jail and there kept until after
the verdict had been rendered, SO that
he was not present at the taking of the
verdict. That was rendered on the
Goth, and he was brought into court on
the 25th of November when he was
sentenced upon the verdict, to two
years confinement in the penitentiary.

The most astonishing cures of ner-
vous debility, exhausted vitality, semi
nal weakness, paralysis, impurities of
the blood, impaired memory, noises in
the head and general debility, are con-
stantly being made with the great Eng
lish remedy, Sir Ashley Cooper's Vital
Restorative, by DR.. Mintie 367, Holli-
day street, Denver. The doctor claims
that any case, no matter how bad, nor
of how long standing, can be cured if
properly managed. Excitant and irri-
tant medicines should never be given
in these troubles for they only exhaust
the already impaired nerve force. The
VITAL RESTORATIVE will not
EXCITE nor IRRITATE, but being
a PURE NERVE FOOD will supply
new nerve force and build up the whole
system. Price, So bottle or four times
the quantity for $40, sent to any ad-
dress free from observation. All dis
