The wondrous weather Plant.

That remarkable specimen of the vege-
table world, the weather plant" con-
tinues to excite considerable interest.
Men of science, who on its first discovery
were unwilling to express an opinion on
its prognosticating virtues, now agree,
after extensive experiments, that the
shrub is in truth prophetic. Thirty-two
thousand trials made during the last
three years tend to prove its infallibility.
The plant itself is a legume, commonly
called the 'Paternoster pea" but known
in botany as the Abrus Pereginus. 1t is
a native of Corsica and Tunis. Its leaf
and twig strongly resemble those of
the acacia. The more delicate leaves of
its upper branches foretell the state of
the weather forty-eight hours in adj
vance, while its lower and harder leaves
indicate all atmospheric changes three
days beforehand. The indications con-
sist in a change in the position of the
leaves and in the rise and fall of the
twigs and branchlets .-PaI Mall Ga
Zette.

Such curious and beautiful creatures
were brought before our eyes as | had
scarce known even in my reading. And,
as IL their natural beauty were not
enough, art had been called in to increase
their attraction. There were ost-iches-
tits a bird. If you will believe me, OF full
six cubits in height-dyed with vermilion;
and lions whose names had been gilded,
and antelopes and gazelles, which were
curiously adorned with light colored scarfs
and gold tinsel l should weary you were
l to enumerate the strange creatures
which l saw. Besides the more common
kinds, there were river horses Otis a
clumsy beast, and as little Like to q
horse as can be conceived, except,
they say, as to the head when
the upper half is p~rotruded from
the water), and rhinosceroses, and
zebras beasts curiously striped and not
unlike to a very strong and swift ass,
and, above all, elephants. Though l liked
not the artificial adjoining of some of these
creatures-which, indeed, l thought proof
of a certain vulgarity in these Romans
l could not but admire the skill with
which all these animals had been taught
to keep in subsection their natural tenn
pers and to initiate the ways of men. This
was especially manifest in the elephants.
One of these huge beasts, balancing him
self most carefully. walked on a rose
tightly drawn Other four, on the same
most difficult path, carried between them
a litter in which was a fifth, who repre-
sented a sick person
And even more wonderful han these
were the lions and other beasts of a sim
liar kind. 1t has always been a favorite
marvel Of the poets, how Bacchus was
drawn in a chariot by leopards which he
had trained to be as docile as horses. But
here l saw Bacchus outdone. Lions and
tigers, panthers and bears appeared pa.
tiently drawing carriages; lions being
yoked to tigers and panthers to bears.
Wild bulls permitted boys and girls tc
dance upon their backs, and actually, at
the word of command, stood upon their
hind feet. Still more wonderful again
than this was the spectacle of ions hunt
ing hares, catching them, and carrying
the prey in their mouths, unhurt, to their
masters. The emperor summoned the
lion tanner who had trained the beasts in
this wonderful fashion, and praised him
highly for his skill. The man answered
with as pretty a compliment as ever |
heard: 1T is no skill of mine, my lord, +"
says he; ''the beasts are gentle because
they know whom they serve."- St.
Nicholas.

cess That Has No Equal.


The Charter Oak Stove with the won
derful wire gauze oven door is creating a
revolution wherever it is introduced. Mr..
M. W. Leet, representing the Excelsior
Manufacturing company of st. Louis,
will give an exhibition at F. Schweickert's
3l7 West Sixteenth street. on Thursday
and Friday, Nov. 8 and 9, showing the
practical operation of this new discovery
in cooking. Ladies, physicians and all
persens-intefested -iH-baEiBg well eeeked
and healthful food are invited to call and
see the exhibition. Roasting is done
without basting, and with a loss of only
S per cent of the weight of the meat,
while the average loss with the old style,
solid oven doors, is 35 per cent. Steaks,
chops, fish, ham, oysters, etc, are ele-
gantly broiled inside the oven without
attention, retaining almost entirely their
natural juices and favor, and without
annoyance from smoke or unpleasant
odors. It is claimed and demonstrated
that the saving on meats for a family of
five or six persons will amount to the full
value of a cook stove or range every year.
Everybody invited. Remember the ex-
hibition closes at 5 o'clock. +. Schweick-
ert agent for Cheyenne.

An u~nbreakable substitute for glass is

was designed. When nearly dry the

unreasonable to gainsay. b Is true
Notwithstanding that great manufacturing
sections like Connecticut and New jersey
gave Democratic maiorities, tor the bal
ance Of power in both those states is held
by intelligent. thinking people whose
| place of business is in New York but who
live in one of these two adjoining states.
The local elections in New York City also
exercised a radical influence. Hewitt and
his followers never had much love for
Cleveland, and while 1t is possible that
the Hill men may have been straight on
both the state and national tickets, many
o t Hewitt's followers undoubtedly sacri-
feed Cleveland in the vain hope of elect
ing their favorite to the Office of mayor.
That much of the Mugwump vote has
undoubtedly returned to the Republican
fold is quite evident.
Cleveland defeated is. however, still a
big figure in this country. If he were
more OF q politician and less Of a states
man he would never have sprung his
tariff message on the country on the eve
of an election. 1t requires more time
than was allowed for the rank and file Of
the people to assimilate an economic
question OF such magnitude. The line of
policy which he has marked out must,
however. eventually prove a winning card
for upon it hinges vast benefits to the
entire country.
The Republicans now have before them
a great opportunity to intrench them
selves in power. and it is only reasonable
to suppose that they will take advantage
of it. The admission of Dakota as
two states, of Montana and of
Washington, will give them still
greater strength in the senate and
render them reasonably sure Of
some more electoral votes. President
Harrison, however, will face a delicate
situation of affairs. Blaine meets him at
the very threshold, and whatever way he
acts toward the magnetic man he must
ALLEVIATE influential members of the party.
Should the Republicans have complete
sway in the government and follow out
the same line Of tactics that has been pur-
sued during the past campaign, expecting
to win by buncombe, we have no fear of
the result four years from now.
The Democratic party has survived
many defeats, and the election of Benia-
min Harrison can certainly not crush it.

His name is Harrison, sure enough, and
he is still the grandson of his grandfather.
1t is very safe to say that the result of the
national contest is a surprise TO every
Democrat and perhaps many Republicans
throughout the country.
II the contest had hinged on a square
proposition of tie merits of men Cleve-
land could undoubtedly have beaten any
man in the country. The disturbing ele
ment was protection for revenue distorted
into free tradel and protection for the
sake of protection construed into protec
ton pure and simple for the working
people,. That this issue, misunderstood
and misinterpreted, had an extraordinary
effect upon the general result it would be

reason for possibility that the English

A Springfield teacher had given her
class in geography some oral instruction
about the middle states, mentioning
among other things that the inhabitants
were ''enterprising, wide awake and go
ahead people" The next day she was

a small boy replied to a question about
the inhabitants hat they were enter

THE people of the south side acquitted
themselves with great credit on election
day. The quiet and orderly manner in
which everything was conducted about
the polls amply justified the action of the

in establishing a precinct there.

object IN view, bot they often dc

Miss Frances Willard calls upon
the Prohibitienists to vote against
Harrison because she says that she
was in Chicago when the nomina-
ton was made, aid ten minutes
after the announcement she saw a
big Harrison flag hung out Of a
saloon. This Is why she opposes
Harrison.
If Miss Willard had been in ST.

what People are saying About

l
The news from Maine yesterday
morning caused a broad smile tc
(, light Main Street from Ben Ellis
wortll's to Gardeners.
The Chronicle OF the evening be-
fore had led people TO believe that
the vote was "close" but IS the
Enterprise remarked in the morn
ing that "close" probably meant
"sultry''. The comments on the
streets show about how every body
feels.
DIR. Lee.-How does it look now ?
Why l can't exactly say but if coin
talks I'll bet two to one on Ben
Harrison being elected.
Major Garrard.-I can't see as
it amounts to much not much more
than the same State gave Blaine.
Kelly the Grocer.-I guess that
about settles the cat hop.
Major Dennis.-No significance
whatever; 1 expected a much
larger majority.
Sam Wright.-Well Major your
will be fully realized
in New York.
At the Bank.-Why don't they
come around and take some of
these bets?
George Thaxter.-When l was
in Maine few weeks ago the
highest they put the majority was
5000.
Frank McCollough.-Free trade
is getting badly mauled all along
the line.

won't pull him through.

A Sad Disappointment.

Some years ago couple in Mar
shall county, Kentucky read in the
papers that the State would pay 81,
600 to the first woman who borne
Is children. These good people
determined to win tie 81 900 and
their industry was rewarded recent
ly by the birth of the thirteenth
child. Then the woman went to
claim the money AMI was met by
the cold intelligence that no money
was appropriated and it was only
