The following clipped from the
South Bend Indiana Tribune has ref.
erence to former resident of this
place and son of Mr.. & Mrs. Lu.
cius Abbott:
cat meeting Of the board of wa
ter-works trustees last evening, Supt.
Abbott announced that he would not
be a candidate for reappointment to
the SUPPLEMENTARY another year,
His present term expired the first of
this month, but he would remain a
few weeks until his successor should
be appointed and installed in office,
This action on the part of Mr.. Alb
bott was wholly unexpected by the
board, and they took no action in the
matter beyond accepting Mr.. Abbott's
offer to remain temporarily in charge
of the works.
Mr.. Abbott is serving his 18th year
as superintendent of the South Bend
Water Works, a position he has held
continuously from the time the works
were built in 1878 until the present.
He has watched every brick laid from
the foundation of the old pump house
to the top of the stand-pipe. He has
laDored faithfully for the interests of
the city all these years, advocating
such improvements from time to time
as the needs of the city demanded,
and the money raised by taxation af-
forded, until our water-works are now
in position of permanency and Sc
curity, and our city is supplied with
the purest water on earth. Mr.. Abb
bolt finds his health considerably
broken by the great responsibility he
has been forced to bear through these
years, and desires change. He has
lately purchased restaurant in New
York city, in connection with his
brother. Mrs. Abbott is there now
looking after it. Mr.. Abbott has
several flattering offers from manu-
featuring firms to solicit orders on the
road. He feels greatly attached to
South Bend and tenderly so to the
water-works, to which the best years
of his life have been given. The
people of the city will seriously regret
to learn of Mr.. Abbott's decision to
retire. They have felt that the works
were safe in his hands, and he has
been SO long in charge of them that
he seemed almost a necessary part of
the machinery"

MIL wAUKEE, Wis, Nov. S.-The returns
are coming in slowly and in less satisfac-
tory shape in Wisconsin than four years
ago, but enough are in to make it certain
that the state has gone for Harrison by at
least $1,000 plurality. and probably by
1000. Chairman Upshur, of the demo-
cratic committee, comedies the state
to the republicans by Blaine's plurality
in 1884. which was IA, 500. The legislature
Is overwhelmingly republican, there being
a republican majority oa joint ballot of
over fifty out of vote of 133. OF nine
congressman voted for in this state seven
are republicans and two democrats. The
democrats reclaimed the Second district
which was represented by a republican for
the first time IN its history, and the republi-
cans have offset the loss by gain in the
Fourth (Milwaukee) district, represented by
a union labor congressman.

LONDON, Nov. S.-The Globe says:
President Clevland has not gained anything

IL is satisfactory to find that even in America
the weather-cock policy is not always profit
able. Their defeat is q heavy blow TO the
democrats. 1t may help to COM
pensate Mr. -, Blaine for his previous
State. Mr.. Blaine may not be able to revive the
remarkable foreign policy which helped to
create distrust and promote his defeat. but his
alliance or understanding with the Irish element,

Though we believe that President Cleyeland's
