The Aurora Borealis.

Still another German astronomer pro-
pounds an explanation of the aurora and
zodiacal light. According to this theory,
the suns rays, falling on the earth, are
variously reflected as they fall vertically or
at an angle more or less obtuse, and. the.
earth being conceived as large mirror,
many of the obliqueiy incident rays will
be reflected to part of the celestial vault
on the night side of the earth. The zodia-
cal light he ascribes to the irregular rehec
ton of the sunlight from water, and SINH
larly the vast fields of ice in the polar
regions, he considers, may be regarded as
as an imperfect mirror, irregularly reflect
ing the incident light. The rays which
fall most obliquely are the most abundantly
reflected, and, as the quantity of reflected
light increases with the angle of incidence.
it may be seen how the reflected sunlight
illuminates in the highest degree the night
skies of the region nearest the pole, and,
further, the great similarity of the incipi-
ent light of the aurora is explained thus,
the latter being also sunlight reflected.
As to the idea that the point of origin
of che aurora is indicated by the direction
of the magnetic needle, it is claimed.
rather, that a line drawn from the sun at
right angles to the horizon and prolonged
would be the middle line of the phenom-
enon.
A recent scientific writer refers to the
many attempts which have been made to
fix the hight of the aurora borealis. the
various calculations presenting discour-
agingly wide range Of estimates. At times
the aurora seems to rest upon the earth, at
other times it has been estimated at two
or even three hundred miles high. Later
and more careful experiments with i'm
proved instruments render it quite certain
that thirty-eight miles is probably the
hight at which the most brilliant auroras
take place; that pale and faint glow may
possibly be produced as high even as
eighty-two miles, but that no aurora dis
charge is possible at a hight of 124 miles.

\ marriage by proxy, or, as il is called,
marriage by the glove" says an exchange,
is prevalent in Holland and is brought
about by the fact that many of the eiig;-
bic young men, after having finished their
education, depart for Dutch India to en-
gage in some lucrative commercial enter
prise, or TO accept position in this colo
NAL service. The scarcity Of marriageble
white ladies in that cline induces the
would-be husband to write to friend in
Holland, disclosing his wish for partner
in life.
The friend selects willing young lady,
generally one with substantial dot, and
otherwise conforming closely to speciica-
tions of the the letter. A photograph of
the favored one is inclosed in the retu
epistle. After the lapse of a few moatas,
i soiled left-hand glove, with a power of
attorney, is received by the far-away bach
elor. The friend in Holland marries the
selected bride in precisely the same man
ner rs if he were the actual groom, and
the young wife departs in the next iudia
mail-s;eaner to bring happiness to the
lonely one in the far East. A marriage of
this description IS as binding as if the
bridegroom were present, and is never re-
pudiated. If either party to the glove
marriage should die before meeting in IN
dia, the survivor would share the property
of the deceased III accordance with the
law

STATE RETURNS.
Latest Figures Received From Some of
the States.

DELAWARE.
WILMINGTON, November Sth = Cleveland s
plurality in the State is g. 3444. Congressman
Pennington (DemocrsO is reelected by over
3,400 plurality. The next Legislature will stand:
Senate-Democrats z, Republicans 2; House
Democrats 7, Republicans IA, giving the Repub-
hcans majority of two on joint ballot.
FLORIDA.
PENSACOLA, November Sth-Florida has gone
Democratic by over 1900 majority, and electe d
both Democratic Congressman.
INDIANA.
INDIANAPOLIS November Sth-Nine hundred
and forty Eight precincts in Indiana give Harri-
son 150,5SS, Cleveland IA 153. The same pre-
cincts in 1854 gave Blaine 1S6,S95 and Cleveland
1901.
Harrison's majority will not be less than 5000
and probably 5000. The State ticket is elected
by the same majority.
INDIANAPoLIs.-P. M.-From nearly complete
returns from all the Congressional Districts IL is
believed the Indiana delegation in Congress
will stand eight Democrats and five RepubIi-
cans, an increase of two for the Democrats
ILLINOIS.
CHICAGO, November Sth.- The Republican
State Central Committee reports that complete
returns from ninety counties in Illinois and a
careful estimate of the remaining twelve give
Biber for Governor Is, ,007 plurality Harrison 5
plurality is placed in the neighborhood of
25,000.
DEs MONIES. November Sth.-Sixty-one coun-
ties complete give Harrison net gain of 10. .5S3.
or a plurality SO far of 26,000. The remaining
thirty eight counties will probably raise his plu,
rality to "a 600.
MICHIGAN.
DETROIT, November Sth.-Harrisou's pluraIitv
in the State of Michigan will reach 22OO1 against
3,30S for Blaine in 1884. This surprisingly large
gain is undoubtedly due to the return of the
Greenbackers to old party lines.
MISSOURI
ST LOUIS, November Sth.-Complete returns
from so of the 1i0 counties in the State and
partial returns from the remainder show CIeye-
lands plurality to be about 1900 and that of
Francis, for Governor 1000
The st. Louis complete returns give Cleveland
. 6il, Harrison 81 ,siS, Francis 1861 Kimball

LATER-The Republican State Committee now
comedies the election of Francis Dem for Gov
ernor, but by d very small plurality. No further
changes in the Congressional delegation
NEBRASKA
OMAHA, November Sth.-Laird Dorsey and
Connel, all Republicans, are undoubtedly

PILE, OF TELEGRAMS.
Congratulations to General Earr;son-
Senator Stanford's Message.


INDIANAPOLIS, November sth.-General Har-
rison began to receive congratulatory telegrams
from New York and the East as early as
o'clock on election night when the first meager
returns indicated his probable election. From
that moment to the present writing kilograms
and letters of congratulation have poured in
upon him from every city in the Union The
table in his library is piled with hundreds of
these kilograms, there being fully 5000. So
long as there was shadow of doubt resting
upon the result of the election, General Harri-
son was not disposed to permit the publication
OF any copgratulatory communications. The
labor OF asserting the kilograms, which continue
to arrive, was begun this evening.
Among the congratulations received were
those from Chairmen Quay and Huston, James
q. Blaine, John Sherman, Ex-Governor Alger
Chauucey NJ. Depew, Congressman Mckinley
NJ. NJ. Estee, John NJ. Thurston, Senator Frey,
T. c. Platt, Senators Spooner,i Hawley, Dawes,
Stockbridge, Paddock, Manderson, Aldrich and
Sabin, congressman Burroughs, Branch and
Bruce, A. p. Williams, of California, and many
others. Mrs. Belva Lockwood offered the con-
gratulations of The Equal Rights party.
Senator Stanford, OF California, telegraphed

reSentative of the better American sentiment of

turns then received fully justified that estimate
Reports from New York city and from large
communities in the interior of the State showed
democratic gains. and the first reports from
Brooklyn were to the effect that the majority
there was 10000 The telegraph wires were
very much crowded. and the Transmission OF the
commuters bulletin to the West was consider
ably delayed. There is evidently a misappre-
the dispatch was sent
The particular dispatch referred to was the
one received in the West claiming New York by
lO,0OO to 1900 majority. When the dispatch
arrived out there it was wholly at variance with
the returns from this State The Democratic
committee say it was not intended to deceive
anyone and that at the hour it was written the
bulletins of some New York papers were giving
the State to Cleveland by $1,000 plurality
On the strength of that dispatch thousands Of
democrats on the Pacific Coast and in the
western States put up their money on Cleye-

Is Malaria a Delusinn9

Edwin Walters writes to the St. Louis
Republic as follows: Malaria, so called, is
a delusion. The word malaria means bad
air The diseases that are attributed to
this cause are frequently common in dis
tricts where there is no stagnant water or
anything else to taint the atmosphere. 1t
will be remembered that during the au-
tumn of 1881 there was an unusual number
of people who were attacked by these dis
eases in Southwestern and Western-centraI
Missouri and also Eastern Kansas, when
there had been no rains Of any consequence
for months, and that, too, in districts far
removed from decomposing water or any
other substance. The cause or causes of
these diseases were surely not in the air.
consequently should not be attributed to
malaria. 1t is more probable that during
the dry, hot weather of summer the heat
that is radiated and the electricity that is
generated by the sun have an enervating
influence on the system-that from the
nerve centers this influence reaches the
muscular system, principally through the
pneumogastric nerve, and the stomach be-
ing the most delicate and intricate of al
most any of the involuntary muscles, is
the principal sufferer from such eneryating
influence. Indigestion follows as a symp-
tom, and an increase of bile brings what
is called biliousness and malaria.
hope my medical friends, and | claim
many as such, will pardon the presump-
tion on my part of the discussion OF sub
ject that comes more within their PROV
ince than that of mine But this
conclusion has been forced from observa-
tions that reach over a period of many
years as a surveyor in the West. | have
observed that there were more cases of
sickness of this kind during, or imme-
diately after, the season in which there
were the greatest number of electric show
ers or electric disturbances as shown by
the surveyors instruments. | conclude
then, that heat and electricity are the
prime causes of malaria" and that thev
weaken the stomach, and, in large ma
jority of cases, produce the diseases usually
attributed to this cause.

the hope that it will offend none.
