beyond doubt 2I9 electoral votes. One Presi-
dent, duly elected, has been deprived Of his

The excitement is intense and seems to
be increasing. The crowds are very en-
thusiastic, yet good-natured, and, so far,
orderly, although all sorts of rumors are
in circulation, as to what is likely to &C

longer.
United Press Versus the Western Union.
NEW YORK, November 6.-Yesterday
afternoon the Associated Press in a
statement printed in the New York EUen-
ing Post figured out plurality of IL 900
for Blaine in New York State At this
hour, with only twenty three voting
precincts to hear from the Associated
Press makes Blaine's plurality 432 No
explanation of this sudden decrease of
upward of 10000 in Blaine's alleged
plurality is given. The United Press has
not been able at any time since the polls
closed, on Tuesday afternoon, to find
plurality for Blaine, but fearful that there
might be errors in its data, it has re-
Trained until now from making its
differences public. All its estimates,
however, have been carefully made
and they have been compared with fig
ures received by others, including those
received by the Associated Press, and the
outcome of many conferences between its
experts has uniformly been strengthen
ing of the belief that the small plurality
which will be shown when the official
vote is announced will be in favor of
Cleveland instead of Blaine At this
time the Republicans still figure small
plurality for Blaine, and the Democrats
claim they have l 200 or 1,5O0 plurality
for Cleveland. The chances are that it
will require an absolute count of the Off
cial vote to settle the question of who
is elected. The probabilities are certain
ly in Clcveland's favor

THE SUMS HEAT.
VIII the Time Ever Come When Old Sol
VIII Have Burned Himself Up?

VIII the Time Ever Come When Old Sol
VIII Have Burned Himself Up?
One acre of the SUMS heat supplies
energy sufficient to run all of the steam
engines on the earth. Is the radiation
of the sun a constant quantity? This is
most difficult question. The vine and
the olive flourish, as they did two thou
sand years ago. From geology we can
gather no certain evidence. But we
must apply to the sun these principles
we have enunciated. Some have said
that the constant rushing of meteoric
bodies into the sun feed it and keep up
its heat. We can calculate this matter,
and let us see how much would be re-
quired. If you should take the moon,
and crumble it up, and pour it into the
sun, it would not keep up its heat for a
twelve-month. No this can not he
Intn, is the sun a red-hot body
gradually cooling? No. Then is it
burning out, consuming itself? In such
a case it would have been all burned
out by this time Humboldt discovered
the clew to this problem. The sun is
gradually growing smaller, four miles
in a century. AS the particles grow
smaller, they crowd closer together.
And here in this delicate relation we
find solution of this question. may
seem to state a paradox when 1 say
that while the sun is losing heat it is
growing hotter. As the sun shrinks it
parts with heat, but if the sun is case
Gus, the quantity left grows hotter.
This can not go on forever. 1t is doubt
less true that the sun is more brilliant
now than it was ages ago, but when the
sun shrinks so as to become mostly
solid, this brilliancy will cease to in
crease, and the heat will eventually
cease. As the sun is decreasing in size,
so once it must in ages agone have
been hundred times larger than at
present, and far back enough have been
a diffused object, a mass of nebulous
matter.-Fron1 a Lecture By Prof r.

NEW YORK, November THE follow
ing comes from Republican headquarters:

ing comes from Republican headquarters
The Republican National Committee re-
jOices that the returns now received warrant
it in announcing the triumphant election of
Blaine and Logan. The Republicans have
carried every Northern State except New
Jersey and Connecticut. Virginia seems also
to have given majority for the Republican
cause and ticket, and there is a strong prob
ability that West Virginia has Also while
other southern states still in doubt.
The Northern States alone, how
ever, give to Blaine and Logan 225
electoral votes, and insures their election.
In New York attempts to tamper with the
turns have already been detected. The ac-
tual vote cast in New YOrk City, Kings COun-
~ and ,S52 election precincts gave at the ut
while 1913 precincts not yet heard from gave
PHI plurality to Garfield. There is, there
fore, ground for doubt that the
honest vote of the State has been given
to the Republican candidate, and although
the defeated candidate for the Presidency is
the head of the election machinery in this
State, the Democratic party, which has notO-
riOusly been the party of fraud in elections
for years, will not be permitted to thwart the
will of the people. The National Republican
Committee calls on the Chairman and the in
dividual members of all County Committees
to take tine promptest and most stringest
means to protect the sanctity of the ballot.
The Republican candidates have been hon
estly e lected beyond a question. Any at

abiding citizen.

More Money Wanted.
NEW YORK, November THE follow
inc address has heen issued.

The National Democratic Committee has
taken very active measures to insure a fair
and prompt return in all delayed or doubt
full districts. Counsel are employed to
watch the official canvass, and arrangements
are made to insure the transmission of cor
rect news over the country. To meet the ex-
penses of this action, which are necessarily
heavy, friends in various sections start
ing subscriptions. Money will be thankfully
received by the National Committee, and
any aid of this nature to assist in enforcing
the popular viii should, to be effective, be
promptly rendered.

SCIENCE IN CLOVER,

a famous journalist and Archaeological
was one day walking in Central Park,
when he encountered little girl who
seemed in great distress.
Upon asking the cause of her trouble
he found she had been hunting all the
morning for four-leafed clover, but had
hunted in vain.
And why do you wish so much to find
one ?" asked the great man.
because l have been promised fifty
cents for it"
"Little girl, said the great man, as he
seated himself in the grass by her side, 81
will give you what you seek"
Plucking three-leafed clover he cum
ningly attached to it fourth leaf by means
of an almost invisible wire which he drew
from his pocket. Smiling sweetly upon the
child he said "Now run with this and
get your fifty cents, then come back and
we will divide"
"But, sir, this is not real four-leafed
clover, and"
Tat! my child. Is your friend an
American ?"
" Yes, sir.
"Then run and get your money, for
Americans enjoy being humbugged. They
prefer quantity to quality, But should
they discover the frsud-that is, the.er.
restoration, you must stick through it
through thick and thin, and black and
white, that the leaf belonged there origin
ally-now CO." The little girl went, but
she soon returned with fifty cents, of
which the great man retained forty-nine.
Placing the remaining penny in her
chubby hand he said, with a friendly
smile, "Bs virtuous and you will be hap.
py," and turning away he strobe proudly
across the lawn and disappeared within the
recesses of the Metropolitan Museum.

TWO CHILDREN ROASTED.

The explosion of lamp, containing evil
IDENTIFY low grade of oil, caused fire last
evening about 6:I5 o'clock in the two story
brick Chinese lodging house at the SOUTH
east corner of Pacific street and Bartlett
alley. The fire was in Room No. 4. in the
upper story, which is occupied by the fam.
lily of All Sue, Chinese ship steward.
Officer NJ. ]. Sullivan and watchmen Nc
Laughlin and Lsnglyn were on hand, but
the fire did not justify them in turning in
an alarm. The people in the house fled,
and when the officers entered the burning
room they perceived two Chinese children
writhing in bed, which was rapidly being
consumed by the flames, burning fiercely
on account of the oil that had been spat-
tered on the bedding. The children were
twin sisters, ten months old. They were
removed in the burning rags that still ad-
hered to their shriveled forms to the Re-
ceiving Hospital, where a most horrible
sight was presented when they were laid
upon the operating table. At a glance
Police Surgeon Dennis saw that the poor
innocents were past all surgical aid and
beyond all hope. All that lie could do was
to ease their death The children were
burned in shocking manner, half their
bodies, from the toes to the hips, being
actually cooked. One of the twins died
within very few minutes after being
brought into the hospital, the injuries to
its head being more severe than in the
other. The live one writhed and gasped
in fearful agony, and as she moved her
burned arm to brush off the mask from the
face, which like the body was swathed in
lint, immersed in limewater and linseed
oil, tears were drawn from the eyes of
those present, who urged DR.. Dennis in his
humanity to end the infants suferings.
The injuries to the child were fatal, it's
legs, like those of its mate, being burned
to crisp, and the skin from the whole
body having come off in large scales. The
young mother, who had followed the
officers with their burdens to the hospital,
wept and moaned over the shockingly
mutilated trunks Of her babies, apparently
not realizing that their death lies at the
door of those who ANONYMOUSLY fed and
left them to their fate. The remaining
twin finally expired in great agony.-[S. F.
