How They Xeted.


1t is always interesting to watch an
election when great deal of scratching
is done. Perhaps, ss fer as our county
ticket is concerned. there was never q
more hotly contested canvass than that
which was brought to . close yesterday.
Tickets, without nuHber, and fixed up to
suit every caprice Of the voter, were dis.
tributsd in ell the districts hy The party
workers. Tho vote pollsd in this city
shows noticeable falling off en- aecoun.
Of the food. or late there has been
much curiosity to know how the falling
OF in the various districts in consequence
of the food would effect each Of the
parties. The largest falling OF was in
the First ward OF Johnstown, where the
totA vote for President last year was 4oS.
Yesterday the total vote cast there was
241, sixty being cast for Blgler and 1S1
for Boyer, while Cleveland had 151, and
Harrison Si7 last year. The falling OF
on the Democrasec side there was about
sixty per cent, and the Republican falling
of was about forty-thres per cent, and
the whole falling of about flfty.ons pa
cent. All the decrease, however, may
not be due TO the flood.

The people of what will be Johnstown

A Fem ale Paradox.

A lady, old and growing Older still,
{As ladies will grow old, you know, became,
IN spite Of age, as young as youth-but i'll,
And old, and wretched, feeble, lame and sore,
A lady young became in spite of youth,
As ladies will. and why? Because the truth,
That keeps q lady young, they fail to grasp,
And yielding to disease. die in its fatal clasp.
That truth is that woman's weaknesses may
