GOVERNOR HOABLY.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 11.-Judge Hoad-
ly says late tonight: my advices
are, | am elected by 5000 to y, 900 ma
iority. [ have not been over the
counties carefully to compare MAORI
ties, but l am under the impression
that the wood growing, grape-grow-
ing, and strong democratic counties
have given the democratic party their
largest gains this year. The majority
is about the same as it was on
the county ticket last year The gi-
gantic effort made for the second, or
prohibitOry amendment probably
makes this the largest vote ever given
IL Ohio. l think the second amend
ment undoubtedly defeated. The
whole state ticket on each side runs
pretty well together except that Rose
is much anead in his own county, en-
dangering Warwick for lieutenant
governor, eff the majority is below
5000"
COLUMBUS, Oct. 12.-The repubIi-
can central committee has closed it's
headquarters. They admit Judge
Hoadly's election by $4,000 The
democrats claim Hoadly's majority
will exceed $4,000. The democrats
will have the senate with twenty
three members and ten republicans.
while the lower house will stand
democrats sixty-fve, republicans
forty-one. This gives the democrats
8 majority Of
THIRTY EIGHT
on joint ballot. It will not be sur
prislng if Hoadly's majority crawls
up to $500. The republicans are ex-
ceedingl y sore and disheartened.
There seems to be no well ones to
cheer the sick. They are all mad
and disguised. There are some who
are laying blame upon Gov. Foster,
some upon Sherman, and others to the
Legislature for letting the temperance
people have a chance to trade them
off for their amendment. The demo-
Gratis attacked the republicans in the
country, where the latter felt strong.
and beat them there The republi-
cans spent their force with less sue
cess in the cities, which were the
democratic strongholds, or their
allies, the Germans The liquor men
and others were not to be drawn off
this year There is much talk about
Sherman.

The American Hotel System.
London Telegraph.

| London Telegraph.
If we turn to the United States, we
find country in which prevails q no
tel system the most elaborate and the
most extensive in the whole world. a
guest may obtain nearly all the re
Quirements in life in an American no
tel. There he can eat, and drink, and
sleep, wire telegraph messages to the
uttermost ends Of the earth, read at
Chicago by means Of the "perpetual
tape-worm machine the quotations OF
the exchanges of London and Paris,
have his hair cut, be "barbered" and
fixed, F" purchase tickets for the play,
read the papers by the electric light,
have his visiting cards engraved, ais
boots polished, and his corns cut bOr-
row umbrellas and dress suits by the
Gay or night, and buy cigars, chewing
tobacco, railway tickets, comic publ
cations, white kid gloves and nolas5es
candy. Essentials" and mon essen
tials" alike are provided at fixed prizes
and no fees are nominally expected
When the traveller pays his weekly
bill for board he does not find it SID
plemented by q charge per day for at
:
what the Americans term a FRIGHT
mean cuss, he may travel from Cipe
Cod to the Golden Gates, and fnm
the Gulf of Mexico to Washingon
/ Territory without. as far as his htel
bills are concerned, discussing a an
gle cent beyond the stipulated chaIge.
It will be asked how such a system
works. In reply 1t may be explained
that the 1mfed hotel servants are toer-
ably civil, and that is all. The nero
walters are generally obligin@ fellows
to be obliging is a characteristic of
of their race-but when the waite is
a white man, he is usually an IRISH
man, and he takes care, when unpd.
to make travelling Englishmen aware
of that portentious fact. The foreign
guest at first exults in finding hoels
wherein there is no fixed chargeoer
diem for attendance, and where, wien
he is taking his departure, the servants
are not ranged-a terrible show
with hungry eyes fixed on his wallet
of dollar notes But III process of tine
the travelling Briton is oppressed With
a growing sense of being neglected
and uncomfortable, and by the unasy
persuasion that there are those anpng
his fellow-guests who are far1ng5e BET
ter than he does. By and by SINE
American acquaintance lets him nto
the secret of faring better. If he wish
es to be attentlvely and promtly
waited upon at breakfast, let him Zip
a quarter into the walters hands If
he be anxious to have a good diner,
in lieu of succession and tepid andfa-
vorless messes, let him send dow
frequent dollar to the cook, withhis
name and his compliments. Thee is
no fixed charge for attendance in
American hotels; but the tourist yho
wishes to travel in comfort must 'fp. ="
and Tip" largely.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 10.-Judges and
clerks have been counting all night
and forenoon in several wards. The
figures at first reported in some cases
are now contradicted The figures are
much mixed. Newspaper Offices and
other centers of information are
thronged with anxious crowds, patient
ly waiting for the returns, which can
not yet be given. Various and wide
ly-differing bulletins are posted.
The morning newspapers have bare
ly suggestion of the detailed vote
EVERYBODY is worn out and progress to-
day will be slow at best.
The estimate on Hamilton county,
from additional returns received this
morning, give Hoadly a majority of
from 1, 500 to 1000, with the legisla-
cure and county ticket divided or the
democrats defeated. This is based on
returns from seventy three out of 103
precincts, and may be modified either
way by subsequent returns.
HOADLY'S ELECTION ASSURED.
COLUMBUS, o., Oct 10.-No addi-
tiona1 returns of consequence have
been received here this morning, ex-
cept private dispatches and scattering
kilograms. On what has been re
ceived, however, the democrats
claim Hoadly's election by 5000
and the legislature. They claim that
Hoadly is running ahead in Cincin-
natl and will have 1000 majority IN
the county. The republican commit
tee concede Hoadly's majority will be
5000 or 4, 900 and that Rose will be
elected. Gov. Foster thinks that
Hoadly's chances are best but does
not abandon hope of either the gov
ernor or the legislature. The latest
from Cleveland indicates that Hoadly
has a small majority in that county,
with the legislative ticket: 4 demo
Gratis and republicans. At headquar-
ters, the republicans are still hoping
for a change. The democrats claim
the lower house of the legislature by

CINCINNATI, Oct 10.-The Comrnerc

returns may give a different result,
but the outlook is not favorable. The

by both sides. The second amend

Tools Used in Building the Pyramids

During a residence Of two winters
III a tomb at Gizeh, NJ. W. NJ. Film
ders Petrie collected evidence showing
that the tools used in working stone
four thousand years ago were con-
structed with a jewel as the cutting
edge. He stated his reasons for com
ing to this conclusion in a paper, read
before the Archaeological institute,
a resume of which is published in a
recent issue of Engineering, of Lon
don. Solid and tubular drills, straight
and circular disk saws, and lathe tools
were made with jewels, set in metal.
The lines Of cutting ON granite core
made by tubular drill, form a con
tinu0us spiral, the grooves being of a
uniform depth and width throughout,
showing that the cutting point was
not worn as the work advanced. The
regular taper of the core would indi-
cate jewels were also set upon the out
side and inside Of the drill, thereby
facilitating it's removal. In some
specimens Of granite, drills sunk one
tenth of an inch, at each revolution,
and the pressure necessary to do this
must have been from one to two tons.
The skill Of the workmen and the ca
pacity of the tool are illustrated by
the clean path through both soft and
hard material-no difference in the
groove being perceptible, although it
passes from a soft substance into
quartz, subjecting the tool to an enor-
nous strain. In plane surfaces the
depth and width Of the cuts indicate
the successive stroke of saw, and the
use of the circular saw is proved by
the regularly curved lines. The forms
of the tools were the same that ex-
perience has sanctioned at the present
time
The scarcity of the diamond and the
lack of strength in the sapphire and
beryl lead to the consideration of cor
undum. Nothing has been found
about the metal of which the tool was
made or the method of setting the
jewel

C0Wiiding a Dude.

A cOwhiding affair, in which be
wltchlng brunette moving in fashion
able society played a leading role, has
caused q decided sensation in Savan-
nah, Ga. The lady in question has
been annoyed by several notes from
a man supposed to be a commercial
traveller for q New York house, and
upon the advice of a gentleman friend
granted her unknown correspondent
the privilege Of making a call at her
house. Not anticipating a trap, the
stranger presented himself, and had
hardly entered the parlor, when he
asked the lady's company for stroll.
Accepting the invitation, she left the
honse, but had not proceeded further
than block, when the gentleman
who had concocted the plot, passed
her and slipped q heavy cowhide into
her hand. Without word Of warn
ing, she suddenly commenced flashing
her lnSulter across the face with the
whip, and before he could realize the
situation, he was streaming with blood
and had both his eyes nearly closed
His attempt to apology only drew
forth more blows, and he finally took
to his heels The lady then returned
home before her family were aware of
what had been going on. Had the
chastised dude fallen into the hands
Of the lady's brother he would. in all
probability, have received q dose of
cold lead Efforts are being made to
ferret out the identity of the man. and
