We leave the State of West Virginia in
the doubtful column, ns the returns are
not sufficiently defined to warrant plac-
ing tt in either. II is claimed by
both parties, with some show of right.
l. added to Blaine it would leave him
eleven votes short of an election and
give Cleveland twelve majority in the
Electoral college.
The contest settles down in New YorA :,
and the candidate who receives the vote
Of that State will be the reSident-elect.
The Republicans have claimed New
York vigorously all OF Wednesday and
Thursday, but no actual returns have
been sent ont by the Associated Press, or
from any other source that do not give
the State to Cleveland by from 900 to
5000 majority. Taking the reported
and accepted majorities for Cleveland
east Of Harlem, where he gains nearly
5000 over Hancock's majorities, and
following with the uniform gains Of
above eight to each precinct, there is no
known system: Of arithmetic that can
give Blaine the State. OF course, O
majority Of two or even ave thousand
may be easily changed in the official
return Of the immense vote of New York
and Brooklyn, or it may be doubled or
sntirely lost in the Official count of
million and a quarter votes, but the
figures that have been sent out by all
sides must be changed by honest correc-
tions or by dishonest manipulation to
defeat Cleveland in New York, and the
vote of New York will elect the next
President.
II is to be regretted that the majority
has not been more decisive, however it
may be cast The country would have
been more tran quill had either candidate
been elected by an Overwhelming vote;
bnt there will be cordial submission 10
the will of the majority. and any attempt
to introduce fraud by either side, how
ever grateful 10 the heated psrtisans OF
to-day, would be sternly reprobated by
the American people, They have elected
q President, and Mr.. Blaine is beaten.
WHATEVER the result on the Presiden-
cy, the complexion Of the two Houses Of
Congress for the next two years is fairly
we'll known. The Republicans will have
majority Of eight in the Senate and
the Democrats will control the House
by majority which can scarcely, in any
event, fall below forty.

would probably object to the treatment
of cows and horses in similar fashion.
This apomaly is not to be explained by
supposing want of love or want of care,
though this may be true in some cases.
1t is caused chiefly by that unreasoning
view of humanity which ignores the
physical part of our being, and foolishly
trusts that moral and mental benefit can
be obtained under circumstances which
are ruinous to health and ultimately to
mind and morals also.

planet captured the comet and forced it
hsnceiorth to reyolve within the boundar
les of the solar system. the event occuring G
probably in the second century of the

orbit rests on the earths orbit, where she
passes November 10 and its aphelion ex

cess Of idislntergration is going on, and the
debris of the comet and the swarm OF
meteors are gradually scattering through
the whole zone, only one.tenth OF which is
now filled densely with the meteor swarms.
The period Of revultion is about thirty three
years, and grand display occurs only at
these intervals, when the earth crosses the
densest portion OF the zone. The last mem

expected in 1899.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 2S.- AT 1880
o'clock last night Adolph Suers, German
apple peddler about forty-five years of age,
shot and killed his wife and then put
bullet through his own brains.
For three months past the couple
have not lived together, and Mrs. Suers
supported her two children by washing
and doing odd jobs for neghbors. She had
once possessed considerable money, lCt
Suers had lost it all in the Turf Exchange.
After bleeding her of every cent and bring
ing the family to the verge of starvation he
abandoned them. Mrs. Suers brought suit
for wife abandonment, and it was to
have been tried to-day. Last night
he entered her room about $50
o'clock and the pair quarreled for nearly
half an hour Then the neighbOrs
heard three shots in rapid succession, and
when the police arrived they found Mrs.
Suers sitting lifeless on lounge. She had
been shot through the abdomeg and riuht
leg. The murderer WAS lying in the middle
of the floor with the better part of his
brains scattered around the apartment A
six-year-Old daughter was found screaming
on the floor, her limbs bathed in her par.
