The annual State election In Rhode

cessful This latter feature Of the voting made
the election extraordinarily exciting.
At the municipal election in Dallas,
Texas, on the heaviest vote ever polled the
Knights Of Labor made a clean sweep, every
candidate supported by them being elected by
majorities ranging from 600 to LOCO The re-
suit was great surprise. Dallas is the point
at which the big public meetings about a
month ago started in Texas

companies, which was done by the Merchants
Exchange, and many other meetings in the

A PHYSICIANS Confession.

You frequently see funny expressions
in print about doctors killing their pa
tients. Well. the thing is often true.
I, myself acknowledge to having killed
two patients. 1 killed them outright,
and made no bones of confessiDg the
fact. One man killed 10y prescribing
morphine at time when his system
was not strong enough to stand the
drug. He left property, and there was
some excitement about dividing the es-
tate. His wife was charged with hav-
ing poisoned him, and the remains were
exhumed, and there was great TODD
about the matter, but l pulled through
it all right. The other man was suffer
ing from prolonged spree, and gave
him choral, which killed him. 1t was
an out-and-out murder, but the Coroner
held an inquest and attributed his
death to jimjams. These two people L
know 1 killed, and, as l am yet young,
and there are more active poisonous
agents than those have so far ex-
perimented with, I expect to kill more
people before l die.-A young ST.
