CINCINNArI, October lJ.-GOvernor.eleCt
Eoadly is overwhelmed with congratula-
tons and kindly greeting from all parts of
the country. Nobody appears to lose sight
of the fact that such a Democratic triumph
ss that of last Tuesday means much more
than the election Of Democratic Governor

in the city. lie is still far from well, and
is seeking rest aud recuperation.
Al His Beautiful Place
in East Walnut Hills.
His home here is quite an ideal one-not
too splendid for comfort, but luxurious
enough to suit fas;idous taste. It's a
fine old stone mansion on the Maids )nville
Pike, set several hundred feet back from
the highway, in the midst OF a splendid
stretch of velvet turf, broken by few fine
trees along the circular drive and a few
brilliant Aower beds about the entrance.
A Virginia ereeper hangs triumpha' gar.
land over the porch, but the iyies 'hIt used
to be the pride of the place and were raised
from slips brought from
Fair MelrOse Abbey
have sucCumbed TO the winter frosts.
The Hoadlys are pre- eminently cul-
tured family, and the house within gives
ample evidence of this. The tesseIlated
hall opens on the right TO the library-a
charming room, with wood fire upon the
hearth and its three sides lined with book
cases. One great plate. glass window com.

the other by Andrews. There is also a
portrait OF Hoadly's father painted in his
youth by old Morse, the inVentoS OF the
telegraphic alphabet.
The drawing room is rich with wood
carved mantels and fire places, encircled
with pictorial titles that illustrate the
famous scenes OF Sir Walter SCOTS novels.
On the walls are some veritable artistic
gems-a Corot, Turner, a Horace Nernet,
ard q superb figure piece by Merle, not to
name pictures by such lesser lights as Ricot
and EScosuIa.
Everywhere are Dainty Things
picked up by the master of the house and
his charming wife during their frequent
visits 10 Europe.
The Hosdly household consists OF the
Governor elect, Mrs. Hoadly, Mr.. George
