688 election districts in the city give
Carr (rep) for secretary of state, 1850;
Maynard (dem), 1860. For attorney
general, O'Brien dem has q. $50; Rabbi
sci (rep), IL 1865. These figures show
that Maynard has been cut, as it was
promised he would, by the liquor deal
ers.
1863 election districts of the 688 give
Carr 35,117; O'Brien, 5O,611. This vote
indicates that Maynard will, in this
city, run about 5000 behind his asso-
ciate, O'Brien, on the democratic ticket,
while O'Brien will run above 5000 ma
jority over Carr.
BROOKLYN, November 6.-Seventy-
five districts give Maynard l6,676; Carr,
$1,000; Chaplin, 1856; Davenport, 15,-
095. Maynard's majority, 673.
One hundred and thirty-five districts
give Maynard, 30,549; Carr, 29,543;
Chaplin, 22,617; Davenport, 3S,o73. May
nard's majority, 1905.

Iyn only the secretary of state votes
have been c~anvassed, and show that 1875
districts out of the 212 comprising the
city gives Carr LIS over Maynard. His
majority is in great doubt and will not
be known until a later hour.
The returns show an apparent major
ity for the democratic state ticket OF
800, excepting Maynard, who runs
abont 1000 behind. The democrats
claim that Low is beaten by 5000 in
Brooklyn, and that Daggett is beaten in
his w ward.
BROOKLYN, November 6.-With six
districts missing, the vote OF Brooklyn
stands: Maynard, 46,491; Carr, 47,265 ;
Chaplin, 40, 143 Davenport, 41,470.

lican ticket.
New York. November 6.-Returns
from 4s7 polling places of the 1900 in
the state, outside of this city, give May
nard s ,5O6, and Carr 90, 141. This vote
already wipes out the majority for May
nard in New York city and secures the
election of Carr.

ture is republican in both branches.

Boston, Nov. 6.-Sixty-one towns,
including Lynn, Lowell, Fall River,
Taunton, Newburg, Portland, and Fitz-

$50. Majority for Robinson, 1888. Low
ell piyes Butler 1892 majority, against
1927 last year.
The complete vote of Boston, as given
by the Journal, gives Butler 32,165 !;
Robinson, 20, G54. Buffers majority,
6.211. Last year Boston gave Butler
30,457: Bishop, Il, 1905. If these figures
are substantiated by later returns, they
will doubtless give the state to the repub-
Iicans. Buffers plurality in Boston is
5000 behind last years. Eighty-five
cities and towns heard from indicate
that the vote Of the state will be, Rob
inson, 152, 600 Butler, 1876 600. The re-
publicans claim $1,000 majority on the
state ticket. They elect seven out OF
eight of the governors councillors, TWEEN
~ty-seven out of forty senators, ana l6O
out of 240 representatives.
Two hundred and thirty-tWo cities
and towns give Butler 1913, 404 Robin
son, 129 1907. The same towns, IN 1888,

opposition elsewhere, hence the legisla-
ture, as usual, is democratic. The ex-

and no further trouble is anticipated.

Fun for the Lawyers.

There is to be another fight in New York
over dead mems millions. Pneumonia made
quick work of Gordon Hamersley and his
son, Louis Care Hamersley. They were
both attacked at the same time about two
months ago. Five weeks ago the father died,
leaving his only son and heir Louis his
wealth-estimated variously from $4,000 ooc
to $4,000, 900. Louis went South to recu
perate his health, and returning was stricken
with fever at Washington. His death oc.
Cured 10 days ago. Louis Hamersley mar
ried Miss Lille Price, Of Troy, some years
ago, and the couple we're childless. Louis
left a will bequeathing his entire property to
his widow during his lie time, and after her
death to public charities. The Hamersleys,
children of Louis uncle, propose to contest
the will upon the ground that Louis Hamers-
ley MADE no will alter he had inherited the
whole Of his fathers wealth, claiming that the
will covers only $4,000, which he himselt
possessed previous to becoming his father S
sole legatee.

FOR A soN-IN-LAw.

A runaway affair in New Jersey of an
Adonis, in mental orders, with the daughter
of millionaire reminds the industrious man
who spends his life in boarding money, that il
he is not doing it for his son it is probably for
his son-in-law. 1t is the old lesson over.
Persistence in dying rich is rewarded in the
silent satisfaction, often the open rejoicings,
of long expectant heirs when the event takes
place. We are not conscious that it offers
any other reward. Accumulation overdone is
not wise. 1t is better to do seasonable good
with money and enjoy the blessings of so do
ing in its season than to leave it behind you
to prodigal spendthrifts, or unlimited strang-
ers to qualify them for doing it. 1t is es-
pecially the privilege of age, when the keen
relish Of grosser Injuries has lost its edge to
gather recompense in benefits conferred, to
bestow upon others delights it cannot itself
enjoy for the sake of more desirable
ones it can. Many successful men
find out the difficulty of appropriating larger
monopoly by selfish enjoyments than human
ity can carry. There is only small invoice
of temporal possibilities intrusted to man at
best, and Of these the mental and moral facul-
ties engross nearly all. Appetible measure
ments are small and with the advantages of
incessant renewal, yet confer very limited
pleasures, and open the door to but small ex-
penditures of large means. But it should be
practicable for men of large means to indulge
in sons-in law if all else fail.
