A CLEAN SWEEP IN IOWA.
Tho Republicans Garry the State and Con-
troll the Next Legislature.

Tho Republicans Garry the State and Con-
troll the Next LegIslature.
DEs MONIES, Oct. 10.-Governor Sher-
man, Republican, will have 10000 or more
over Kinne, Democrat, and probably 10000
to $4,000 over all. Judge Reed, Republi-
can, will have nearly the same. The Legis-
lature is Republican on joint ballot by at
least 40. The House is close, but the Re-
publicans will have eight to ten majority.
In the Sixth Congressional district the in
dications arc favorable to Stiles, Republican.
Prohibit on is probably assured. The
Democrats concede Sherman elected, but
put his majority at 5000 and concede five
to eight Republican majority in the lower
house of the Legislature and Is in the
Senate.
The Republican State central committee
at midnight claims the election of II Sena-
tors, which, with the 20 hold-over Republi-
cans, give 81, and concede seven to the
Democrats, with one hold-over. 1t also
claims the elec tion of IS Republican Repre-
sentatives and comedies 40 to the Democrats.
Five Senators and five Representatives are in
doubt.

considered the best base ball pitcher in the
United States, died yesterday morning, OF
consumption, at his home on Marriott
street, near Sixth, Philadelphia. His last
professional engagement was with the
Louisville League club in 1876. For the
last 15 months he had been a patrolman in
the Second district. He was born in Phila-
delphia in 1S47, and when quite a boy
achieved notoriety as base ball player. He
is said to have been the first proficient
curve pitcher. He was expelled from the
League on the ground that he sold the
Louisvilles to opposing mines in games upon
which thousands of dollars had beer
wagered. He made numerous attempts tC
be reinstated, but his petitions were ig

LAST NIGHTS CONCERT.

A Delightful Entertainments Furnished By
the Philharmonic Orchestra and Trinity
Choir.
The concert given in the rem odelcd Insti-
tute hall by the Philharmonic Orchestra, as
sisted by Trinity choir, drew together an
audience oi about 300 and was q decided
treat. The playing of the orchestra has
greatly improved since their last public ap-
pearance and IN the selection Of their num-
bers they displayed excellent taste. Unlor-
tunatsly the acoustic properties OF the hall
have not been made perfect by the change
and when the orchestra reached an r. n.
passage the echo spoiled the fine effect and
made the notes sound harsh. When the
string instruments alone were In play the
effect was not 90 bad. The singing Of Trim
ity choir was particularly good. Their rem
dition of the "Lord's Prayer'was one Of the
finest numbers of the evening and was sung
faultlessly.

Notes From and via. Chicago

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-A Milwaukee spec
ial says : Preparations are being made
for big fight in the legislature over
the prohibition amendment. 1t is re-
ported that the liquor dealers have a
powerful lobby established.
A Eau Claire. Wis, SPECIAL says: Re
ports from the pineries in various parts
of the state arc extremely unfavorable
There is ample snow, but the roads are
in bad condition and loggers are be-
hind in their contracts, and cold snap
and freeze would help them.
An Oskaloosa, Iowa, special, says
Three eminent physicians declare as a
result of the port mortem over the four
victims of horse disease here that the
mslady is cerebro spinal meningitis.
New cases are arising constantly. No
remedy can be found.
A Denver, special, says: BY mutual
agreement, Mrs. Augusta l. Tabor OBJ
tanned divorce from her husband, Gov.
Tabor, yesterday the alimony being

She withdrew all offensive charges and

The failure of the Co-operatiye

The failure of the Cooperative Dress
Association of New York, is to be re-
GREETED because of the salutary ends
sought TO be attained by that organiza-
ton. 1t has long been a dearly cherished
purpose of Miss Kate Field, the prime
mover in the enterprise to reduce the
price of female apparel, and her pro-
ject TO afford the ladies CT New York
an opportunity TO purchase dresses and
other dry goods that would not include
the commissions of middle men was
worthy of the hearty encouragement of
every advocate of economy. The col
lapse OF the establishment seems TO be
due more to a lack of shrewd business
management than anything else, and
the failure does not stamp the
scheme as unfeasible or impractIcable-
1t is thought that the assets of the con-
Germ will be considerably in excess of
its liabilities, and it is the hope OF Miss
Field that it will be possible TO resume
with better chances of success in the
light of the experience which has been
gained at a considerable pecuniery loss.
Whatever subserves the ends of econo
my and tends to check the vulgar ex-
travaganee which prevails in fashionable
circles in this country is a beneficent
measure and deserves success.

Topeka Capital: Gen. ]. w. Denver
in whose honor Denver City was named
and who was at one time Governor ol
Kansas, is visiting in Washington. A
correspondent describes him as tall
well-formed man, of between fifty and
sixty years of age, and apparently enjoy.
ing perfect health. General Denver
originally came from Virginia, but emf
grated TO Ohio when quite young, and
considers that state his home now. He
has had varied career. He taught
school and practiced law in Missouri
was captain In the Mexican war; was
once Secretary of State of California,
and represented that state IL the Thirty
fourth congress. When Buchanan be-
came President he made him Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs, which office he
held for some time, and finally resigned
to take the governorship of Kansas, then
Territory, Some time after this Gen.
Denver practiced law at Washington.
He had much TO do with the early de-
velopment of Colorado, and has now
retired wealthy and healthy TO an estate
which he owns in Clermont county,
Ohio.

Gen Eaton, United States Commits
sioner of Education, in his recent ad-
dress TO the Union League Club, Of New
York, claims that illiteracy in this coun.
try is so enormous that only the General
Government can deal with 1t successful
ly that there are more than 100000 oil
persons over ten years of age who can.
not write, of which 8, 200, 900 are colored,
100000 native whites, and 100000 for
eign whites. He believes that even with
much greater activity in all the present
educational agencies, the family, church
and school, the object in view could not
be accomplished, and urges that while
the Government has given freely 70
rivers and barbors, canals and
railroads, it would be eminent
ly proper to aid the states in the
increase of educational facilities. This
seems like Just reasoning, but it does
not indicate the obstacles that would
have TO be surmounted in order to sue.
cessfCl y inaugurate system of this
kind that would be at once efficient
aud equable. The distribution of such
a fund would raise a multitude of irri.
tating and embarrassing questions. Be
sides, it is difficult to believe that there
is any state in the union whose resources
if properly applied, are inadequate &c
furnish the opportunity to every person
within its borders to secure an elemen
tary education. II should be matter
of state pride, and 1t is easy to see also
why it is possible for national aid in this
direction to be detriment rather than
a helm.

rRE YEAR.s NkcRoLoeY

Few years have swept away so many
men great in various departments Of
labor as that which Is now closing. and
this is particularly true IN the field of
literature. The list OF dead is almost
appalling. and includes 90 many distin-
guished names that one is inclined to
ask, Who will take their pisces? II is
easy 10 I'll the places oil one or two, but
when they are falling all around us, and
death gathers In harvest so rich rs al
most TO deplete the field, we may we'll
look on in dismay and ask, Who Mex?
Win any one be left TO hold the torch of
knowledge: In this short year there
have left Us Ainsworih, Arthur Sketch
ley, and Anthony Throllope, the En-
| glish novelisis; Auerbach, whose novels,
particularly "On the Heights, have
given him world wide fame; Rossetti,
the graceful poet and pre- Raphaelite; DR.
John Brown, who would have lived
long enough for his own fame had he
never written anything but "Rab and
His Friends" Darwin, that wonderful
Investigator of the mysteries of nature
and all the secret springs of evolution
Louis Blanc. one Of the most graphic
and powerful political historical writ
ers France has ever had; and in oul
own country, Longfellow, whose genial
loving. graceful muse has just been &C
corded place in the English Wslhalla
of Westminster; Henry Giles, the brill
liant. essayist; Henry James, Sr., tn
philosopher and metapbysician, who's
son is following him at long distance
Geo. p. Marsh, whose political services
to his country, brilliant as they were
are eclipsed by the works of his brill
liant pen; Richard H. Daus, who serve'
his country on many occasions with hi
profound legal knowledge, and whom al
boys love because he knew how to writ
for them and last, but best. and sweetes
and most lovable of all the long sad lis
our own Emerson, with his keen obseI
walton, his rare sunny humor, his dee
knowledge Of men and things, and hi
inflexible devotion To principle.

, Canterbury from theology; Prof. JeYOn

named, but it is in literature that tn
seyerest loss has has been leIt. 1t is

A New York letter describing the ers
OF extravaganza and expenditure on per
sonal adornment says:
The demand TOR American watches
both here and in Euro pc, has cOntinu.
ally been growing, and one American
company, which is now producing ], 100
finished watches day, is unable TO nj
orders except on long notice. There
has been a heavy importation of Swiss
watches this year, but these are mostly
of the cheaper line. The number OF
very costly diamonds sold in this coun-
try this year has been remarkably large
the demand being unprecedented for ex.
ceptionally fine stones, both single and
matched. Recently in several cases as
high as 81 900 per carat has been paid
for diamonds in this city in the trade,
and they have been sold for this price by
one dealer to another. Very high prices
have been given by our dealers for rare
stones in Europe, and when these dia-
monds have been brought here they have
been resold in the trade at prices which
have astonished the sellers themselves.
Then, an enormous quantity of the cheap
er diamonds have been worked up this
year in all kinds of gold and other jew
elry. There has also been a strong de.
mand for rubies and sapphires, which
have advanced greatly in value, and
there has been n rise in the cost of fine
pearls.
