The Elections.

The returns from the elections yesterday
are not sufficient to show clearly the re-
suit In the New England States the vote
was close. Ia the West the republicans
made gains. Virginia has apparently
cast strong republican vote. but the re-
mainder of the South, as far as heard
from, is democratic about as usual. In
New York Daniels. on the State ticket,
republican judge, stands chance to be
elected. Hewitt has plurality for may
or. 1t seems evident that the
republicans have made gain in the az
gregate on Congressman. and will be
able to hold their strength in the Senate.
In New Hampshire and Connecticut
though there IS no election of Governor,
the republicans have a majority in the
legislature and will elect republican sena-
tors. In New York the republicans have
the legislature.

A BenefactOr.

If q man is benefactor who makes two
blades of grass grow where but one grew be-
fore, how much more is he benefactor who
should succeed in doubling the poultry pro-
ducts CT this country? Such a result is in q
fair way to be accomplished, and that very
soon. The discovery of Sheridan's Condi-
ton Powder to make hens lay, will not only
result in doubling the egg product, but will
revolutioniZe the whole poultry industry.
During the autumn Of 1885 and winter of
1886, a thorough trial Of Sheridan's Powder
to make hens lay, WAS made by thousands of
intelligent poultry keepers, and the result
was most satisfactory and convincing. Not
a man or woman who made the trial got less
than double the average number of eggs,
and many got more than four times as many
as they received from the same number of
hens during the same time the previous year.
This trial WAS no hap-hazzard affair, but was
as severe test as could be applied. The
trial was made under prescribed rules, and
every report had to be signed by the person
who made the trial and then sworn to before
a justice of peace. There is therefore, no
longer any doubt in the minds of intelligent
poultry keepers but that a judicious use of
Sheridan's Powder will not only largely in
crease the egg product, but will stimulate
such healthy condition amongst birds of any
name and nature, as will greatly increase
the profit of raising them. This is a matter
of supreme Importance to women, children
and iLvalids, for there is no way by which a
steady cash income can be secured with so
little labor as by keeping and caring for poul-
try. l. S. Johnson & Co., of % Custom

Business Situation.

The business situation shows no very
material change. The slackening of trade
noticed last week continues. 1t is con-
jectured that the elections may have par

companies report total of S4.997, l2S. a
gain of l-2 per cent over the correspond

the exports of grain were nearly 5000. 900

ports have been larger by l-2 per cent.

preston of half dollar per share noted

the highest average for the year. $6S,7S,

HEAVY Tom. WHO HAD TURNED HUNTER.

HEAVY Tom, WHO HAD TURNED HUNTER.
An incident occurred at Galena, H., the
other day which afforded an illustration of
the ferocity of the English sparrow, swarns
of which are now intestin9 the city. 1t con-
sisted of battle between large male mem
Der of the felise tribe, and a numerous fami-
ly of sparrows that had taken refuge in
crab apple tree in the back yard of the First
Presbyterian parsonage. and whose home had
been invaded by the aforesaid Thomas cat
The latter had steslthily crawled up the side
of the tree. and was perched upon lower
limb, watching for an opportunity to rake in
an unsuspecting sparrow with its paw, when
suddenly the entire flock Of birds flew out of
the tree and encircled it, making chirping
noise so loud and exciting as to be heard ali
over the neighborhood. After flying about
the tree for a moment, half dozen or more
birds flew at the cat like lightning, and drove
their sharp-pointed, though short, bills into
its body. The animal uttered howl of pain,
but was finally bounced upon by other Skin
mishers of the bird army, and pecked so I'M
mercifully that it was compelled to let go its
hold on the limb of the tree, and dropped
with dull thud" to the ground. Before it
could regain its feet for the purpose of max
ing its escape, hundred angry sparrows dove
at the animal, pecking it about the head and
back, until it was utterly poweress to defend
itself with his paws, which it had at first en-
deavored to make use of. The birds seeing
the enemy was succumbing to the terrible
punishment they were inficting upon it, re-
newed the attack with redoubled vigor, and
his catship was soon stretched lifeless upon
the ground, with its eyes picked out of its
head, and it's skull perforated in many places.
As soon as the cat ceased to show signs of
life the sparrows flew back into the tree, and
continued their deafeninR chatter in honor Of
the victory
