Hearts Bent on Butter,

Elv!na Mulcassady sat in the gCr-
geously furnished parlors of her fathers
noble mansion, gazing into the ewes of
the one being on earth who loved
her passionately. Though his hair
was parted in the middle he seemed
strangely intelligent His left arm
had struggled around the waist of the
fair young girl, and her plant form
sank deep into the creases of his mark
down suit They had been conversing,
but her lips had become entangled in
his mustache, and conversation had
temporarily Jagged.
''Elylna, why do you look so 81 de-
grees below zero-that is to say, coldly
upon my suit?" he asked.
you are bank cashier, she said,
musingly land yet you are poor"
But | am very honest, he replied,
eagerly.
"Then you win never be rich she
answered, calmly. 'Uberto, am very
wealthy
II respect you for itr' he exclaimed,
warmly.
II can never be the bride of a poor
man." she said. Even now there is
shadow upon our house. Unless
father fails again this fall we shall be
compelled to give up our childhood's
home and seek for board. "
The young cashier shuddered. Tears
started to his eyes.
why are you moved so strangely,

Il have been there, Elvina," he re-
piled.
"Do you wonder, then, that l hest

she said, earnestly.

Il am fond of pie, Uberto."
yet, he answered, gloomily, lit
seems hard that clearinghouse
should sunder two loving hearts. "
There is one thing we have not
thought of, Uberto," she exclaimed,
and hollow look came into her eyes;
1.-THE butter!'

he moaned, hoarsely.
''The fat portion of your head is at

THE CAPITAL EXTRA. Re-
suit OF THE DAY-By six O'Clock
this morning the EVENING CAPITAL
extra with that spirit of enterprise it
has always displayed, was cried upon
our streets by the news boys, con-
tanning all the latest news that could
be obtained by telegraph up to $50
o'clock this morning. Although the
news was meagre and very unsatis-
factory, yet enough could be cleaned
from the brief dispatches to show that
the fight throughout all the States
had been closely contested one.
Notwithstanding the rain that
fell at intervals throughout the
day, large crowds stood around
the polling places, and vehicles were
going to and fro bringing up the
sick, lame, halt and blind. All seemed
inspired with enthusiasm for the great
contest before them, and not until the
time for closing the polls did the in
terest abate in the least.
The counting was concluded in
Annapolis about 7.3O O'Clock, when
the result was announced that Blaine
had carried the city by majority Of
65, aud Holton's majority over Comp
ton was about 48.
This announcement caused great
rejoicing among the Republicans un-
til later returns FROM the county ar
rived.
From the news cleaned from the
morning dailies, and from later dis
patches received up to the time of our
going TO press-all point to close eIec-
ton with the odds in favor of the
Democrats. New York is beyond
doubt gone for Cleveland, with ma
jority of all the congressman elected.
Reliable dispatches also give New
Jersey and Connecticut to the Demo
Gratis by large majorities. Maryland
as usual, has gone largely Democrat
ic, electing four out of the six Con-
gressmen. The vote in Baltimore
city was the largest ever polled,
amounting to 63,249; Cleveland's
plurality, 6.7l6; majority, 5,S43. The
vote for St. John was 1859 and for
Butler lO4.

The city last night was ID d blaze
Of excitment from the time the polls
closed up to an early hour this morn
ing. The telegraph Office was besieged
by . large and exciting crowd Of
spectators, eager for every particle OF
news bearing on the result of the elec.
tions and although their demonstra.
ton, were noisy and boisterous at
times, yet not the slightest trouble
occurred between the opposing par
ties to cause the interference Of the
police. Cheer after cheer rent the
air as the dispatches were read to the
crowd outside. The democrats re-
ceived the news at their headquarters
on Main street, CIV. L. Iglehart's law

ic Hall; private dispatches were also
received at Dexter's Billiard and Pool
Room on Maryland avenue and bv
Governor McLane, at the Executive
Mansion, and it was not until after
five o'clock this morning when the
telegraph instrument ceased to
'click click" and the accommodating
operator, Mr.. Beese ceased from bis
arduous labors of the night, and was
at his post again before O'Clock this
morning.

A Sad Death.

Again death has visited our com.
munity and smitten one of our es-
teemed citizens in the person of Mr..
d. W. Dorsey, whose illness was no.
ticed in the CAPITAL few weeks
ago. Mr.. Dorsey had been confined
to his bed for the past three weeks
from typhoid fever, and up to within
a few days of his death gave hopes of
his recovery. He was in this 33rd
year, and leaves wife and two
young children to mourn their loss.
The deceased had been for many
years engaged in the clothing busi-
ness, and was highly esteemed by his
many friends for his liberal and chari.
table traits of character. "Dan," as
he was Familiarity called, by his inti-
mate finds, had an open hand--ever
ready at all times to alleviate the
wants Of needy his fellow man. His
goodness of heart will always remain
green spot in the memory Of his
many friends. He was an active mem.
ber of the orders of Red Men, Mechan-
les, Knights of Labor; all of which are
beneficial orders. In the latter or
ganization, the deceased had an in-
surance on his life of $4,000, and
$4,000 in another insurance associa-
ton. The CAPITAL tenders the be-
reaved family its sincere sympathy in
their hour of affection.

On THE ROAD TO GREATNESS
Mrs Belva A. Lockwood is the sharp
est presidential candidate that ever
appeared before the people of the Uni
ted States, Her candidacy yielded her
a net profit of $125, and she has re-
ceived the biggest gratuitous adver.
tising ever accorded by the press to
any one. Mrs. Lockwood is q very
good lawyer. and her practice before
the departments will become exceed
ingly profitable through the-extensive
notoriety she has acquired by her late
campaign. When Mr.. Lincoln was
first a candidate for the presidency he
received but one vote in Annapolis
Mrs. Lockwood received but one vote
here yesterday. Mr.. Lincoln became
President and acquired distinction.
By q parity of reasoning, therefore,
Mrs Lockwood, if she become not
president, has acquired distinction and
will scoop in the sheckels-we don't
mean our friend Sheckels Of South
River, but checkels Of silver.

The Beecher Family,

The question was raised recently
whether Henry Ward Beecher was
younger or older than his sister, Mrs.
Stowe. 1t was found that Mrs. Stowe
was born in 1912 and Mr.. Beecher in
1913; he is a little more han one year
the younger. Catherine Beecher was
born nearly twelve years before her
better known sister. While Catherine
lost her lover, Prof. Fisher of Yale Col
lege, by sinpwreck, when she was still
very young. Mrs. Stowe married, it APP
pears, a widower, if we are to trust L.
d. Manstield's "Memories," which say
that PROF. Stowe had for q first wife u
handsome New England lady" Mr..
Stowe was ten years older than his
wife, who wrote her great work at the
age of forty, and her second important
novel, "Dred," at the age of %forty-four.
The Beecher family seem to owe their
literary vitality to their transplantation
to the West, where their father, Lyman
Beecher, went about 1882, and he re-
manned there many years. Mrs. Stowe
lived in Cincinnati about seventeen
years, or till the time shat she planned
"Uncle Tom" which novel was not
drawn from Eastern or Virginia slave
sources, but from Kentucky, and the
escaping slaves who came up through
Ohio and Indiana. Among these was
Eliza Harris, whose feat of crossing TIE
river with her child, on floating cakes
