months.
Although so young, she could rsAay tha
organ well, and sang sweetly.
Her life was like sunbeam,
SO full of light and love;
Too pure and fair for earth,
She has found home above
The organ now is closed,
The bird.like voice is hushed;
We list no more to music
Caused by her gentle touch.
But mp among the angels
Within the shepherds fold
She sings the song of redeeming love.
And plays on a harp of gold.

The M. <. Church was filed by an
appreciative audience on Wednesday
evening of last week to listen to the
Rev, A. J. Hough's lecture, or poem,
"The Country Parson." 1t was one
OF the most interesting we have ever
heard, and those present gave frequent
evidences of their appreciation. His
portrayal of the joys and sorrows
which beset Country Parson"
abounded in humor and pathos; and
his delineation of the difficulties with
a scold, busy-body, church choir, fairs,
ETC., ETC., was exceedingly interesting
and entertaining. The next lecture
in the course will be given next We'd
nesday evening by the Rev. r. P.
Frost. Subject" Vermont the In
FAINT of the Revolution" We advise
those who may have an opportunity
to hear this lecture to avail themselves
of it, or they will miss a rare treat.

WISCONSIN REPUBLICANS.

In the excitement oyer the doubt that
has hung around the result Of the presideu
tial contest people are apt to forget about
the great victories achieved by the Repub-
licans of Wisconsin in the late campaign.
In no state was the Republican outlook
more unfavorable at the beginning of the
canvass. We had to contend against the
independent Republican disaffection
headed by ex.Gov Pound, the Butler
side show, Personal Liberty League, TIE
Brewers Association and Prohibitionists,
who in Wisconsin, were as thoroughly
organized as in any state in the Union.
These all had their influence in drawing
off from the Republican strength. Now
for results: The state gives Blaine and
Logan majority of about $4,000 the
entire Republican state ticket is elected
by majorities ranging from 10000 to
$4,000, and seven out of the nine con-
gressmen are Republicans. gain of four
members, and the legislature is Republican
by the largest majority in many years.
One of the most gratifying results Was
achieved by the Republicans of Milwau-
kee by the election Of Van Shack, to
Congress over P. V. Deuster.
The Wisconsin Republicans can we'll feel
proud of their noble work ON November
4th and whatever the outcome on the
presidency may be they can we'll afford
10 rest on their laurels.

PRESERVING GRAPEs.-We recent

PRESERVING GRAPES. recently
gave the readers of the Prairie Farmer
E. P. Roe's method of preserving grapes
For Winter use, and wish to call their
attention to the two other methods recon
mended by exchanges. The first saws:
The best manner of keeping grapes fresh
for Winter use is that method pursued in
Spain-namely, TO pack the entire clus-
ter in thick, open mouthed stoneware
jars, laying dry, fresh, hardwood sawdust
between them so thickly as to fill up all
interstices, then to place the jars in cool
and even temperature, excluding all
light. This method is more laborious
but better than the practice of the Ital-
ians and French, which merely consists
of hanging the grapes in dark room
subject to slight current of heated air.
Thus the grapes are partially dried, and,
though sweetened by the process, loose
their freshness and part of their favor

FUN OF THE CAMPAIGN.

Binghamton has been on tip-toe of
excitement for days, as it had been an
nounced through the daily press that
grand Belva Lockwood parade would
take place last night under the manage
ment of high school students, on which
occasion Mrs. Lockwood would be pres
ent and make speech. 1t was said she
would arrive on the Eric railroad train
No. 6. and at TAO fully 5000 people had
collected at the station TO welcome her.
There was also band and between 500 or
600 masquera1ers in every conceivable
costume from that of washer. woman Ia y
lady in parlor costume. Some elegant
costumes we're worn by those in carIla. es
and on horseback, those worn by the
pedestrians being more comical than
elegant "Mrs. Lockwood was received
with great ceremony by committee of
gentlemen arrayed in shining beavers,
kid gloves and dress suits. She was
very sedate and sober looking lady, and
walked very gracefully to carriage
where another lady was in waiting.
Then, with three bands of music, dozen
carriages. 40 masqueraders on horseback.
400 or 500 on fooot, the long line paraded
through all the principal streets, amid
blaze of rockets and the cheers of the
multitude. Alter the parade, from the
pagoda in the public square Mrs. Lock
wood spoke to the thousands The
speech was mass of witty nonsense and
of duration. Mrs. Lockwood was one of
the best looking young men in the city,
and as he wore wig and switches and
the customary padding and powder his
appearance was charming" He was
escorted by some fine looking horse
women. The speech was followed by a
ball in Fireman,s Hall, where, with full
orchestra, dancing was kept up for some
time. Some OF the most amusing trans
parencies ever seen here were displayed
during the parade, and several "ladies"
with large families following at their
heels. some of the children black and
some white, made the crowds roar with
laughter.-NeO York Times, Nov. 4.

THE PRESIDENCY CNDECID-

The vote in New York is so close that
nothing bat the official count can deter
mine whether Blaine or Cleveland is
elected. Neither side claim more than
about 500 majority which is remarkably
close contest when it is considered that
about ,200,Q votes were cast IN the
state. The official canvass of the vote
was commenced yesterday in the several
counties of the state and the following is
the New York Tribune's summary of
what was done:
The official canvass was completed
Yesterday Tuesday, in about thirty
counties in New York. No considerable
change is made in these counties from
previously accepted figures. The COUP
ties in which important questions my
arise remain to be heard from, and the
fiEal result may not be determined
for week to come. In this city the
convass is expected to last ten days and
in Brooklyn nearly as long. St. Law
renee, Ontario, Chemung, Chenango,
Columbia, Albany, Otsego, Niagara, Liy-
ingston, Wayne, Ulster, Queens, Tomp-
kins, Montgomery and Duchess, are
among the others which have adjourned
over.
The figures furnished by the Associat-
ed Press at half past l O'Clock Saturday
morning gave the state to Cleveland by
about 724 plurality. This has since been
reduced by the error in New York and
varied by slight changes elsewhere SO as
to leave Cleveland on that basis 40.
Our own table on Thursday night gave
Blaine S44, but the figures for Cattarau
gus furnished by our special dispatch and
confirmed by both the Associated Press
and the dispatch to the state committee
contained an error as big as the one here,
AMI the correction brought down that
table to 408 for Blaine.
So far as can yet be known the truth
probably lies between the two. At any
rate there seems to be no reason yet
ascertained for believing that the plural
itv will amount to 500 either way unless
through unexpected action by some OF
the boards of supervisors. 1t is idle to
dispute or dogmatize over margin so
narrow in vote so large and with so
many points of irregularity or worse yet
to be passed upon. 1t is not time to be
over sanguine of success or to give M
the case. We can only hope fer the
result for which we have been laborlng.

1ammany was the worst sufferer from
the late election. 1t appears to nave
faithfully sup orted Cleveland, resulting
in majority of $4,000 in. his favor in
New York City. In return Cleveland's
friends knitted the Tammany city ticket
in all directions They were aided by
the Republicans, who supported Grace,
the anti Tammany candidate in large
numbers. The case is worse for Tam
mary, as it involves the dispensation of
every dollar of city patronage, amount
ing to $32, 900 900 a year. Tammapy
has heretofore enjoyed a large portion Of
the spells which has been the cohesive
power that bound it together. Without
millions OF patronage to distribute among
its followers Tammany is likely to fall TO
pieces

FOB CHIEF CLERK,

Edwin D Coe, editor of the White
water Register, was elected by the Re-
publicans Chief Clerk of the Assembly of
1882, and had his party had control in
1888 he would no doubt have been hon
ored with re election, having proved
himself during the session of 1882 an
able, faithful and accommodating officer.
Recognizing the satisfactory manner in
which be performed his duties and in
consideration of his high standing as
man and Republican, we nominate him
for Chief Clerk of the Assembly of 1885,
confident that he would again do credit
in the position
