THE RESULTS OF THE KINGS COUNTY CON-
TEST


| SENATORS ASSEMBLYMEN, SUPERVISORS AM
| ALDERMEN WHO ARE ELECTED.
Mayor Chaplin won decisive victory in BrooR-
lyn. and is reelected by fully 5000 majority over
| Colonel Baird. The returns from 300 election
| districts out of the 375 in the city give Chaplh
| 53.0sl and Baird 45,Ol6, n plurality for the
| former of over 5000 The remaining districts
| are not likely to alter the result greatly
This majority for Mayor Chaplin over Colonel
Baird is the largest in ten years In Brooklyn lor
the office, save fer Mayor Whitney four years
ago. Two years ago Mayor Chapin won by ss2.
In 1ss5 Mayor Whitney secured l2,oo7 over Cen
eral Catlin but General Woodward was also in the
field. At his first election, in 1891, Mayor Low
had 1854 and in $50 he had 1 ,s42 plurality.
The real cause of Colonel Baird's defeat may
he found in the return of the labor vote to the
Democratic ranks.
For City Controller Theodore F. Jackson DEM
is elected over John j. Clancy by about the same
majority as Mayor Chapins.
The indications are that the entire Democratic
county ticket is elected. One of the closest con.
tests in the county is in the XIlth Assembly
District between G. J. Kurth tRep) and Nj. Z.
Earl Dem) The latter claims TO be elected
bp plurality of 8 over his opponent. In the
IVth Senate District, p. H. McCarren DEM
asserts that he has been elected, but the lndlca-
tions are that 4. III. Schlurter Rep defeated him.
The reelection of Jackson o. DylSman as Justice
of the Supreme Court for the lid judicial DIS
trict is assured, he was the nominee of both the
Republicans and the Democrats.
Associate Justices of Sessions Charles A
Conrady lRep) and John McMahCn tDem) are
elected without opposition.
In the lid Senate District, ex-senator John G..
Jacobs DEM is elected by about 10000 majority

ton of the Flow of Blood by Prayer.
From the Neto York Herald
JETFERSoNvILLE, IND, Aug. 16.-Mr. j.
W. Jacobs of this city, grand reporter of
the Knights of Honor of this state, is the
posessor of an occult styptic power 1t is
so wonderful that it taxes credulity
severely, and yet it is we'll attested by any
number of responsible people in jefferson
vile and elsewhere. 1t is so mysterious
that he cannot explain it, and, indeed, he
has no idea of how it is exercised, though
he has been possessed of the strange power
since childhood.
Mir. Jacobs is a modest, retiring man,
who has never courted publicity for his
strange gift. but he talked about it freely
and frankly when l called upon him this
morning.
Yes" he said, 81 can stop the flow of
blood, whether caused by wounds or other
wise, but don't know that l can tell you
exactly how it is done. l learned the secret
when only IA years old from my sister-in-
law, Mrs. Jane Patrick. She had been
taught it by an old German, l believe. 1t
see ned so beneficial and important to her
that she was not willing that it should be
lost to the world. She had been told that
it could be transferred only from woman
to man or vice versa, SO she initiated me-"
Have you ever attemptel to initiate any
one else.n

that the power is lost if the holder attempts
to impart it to another eft the same sex.

the patients should believe in my
power, although faith might have some in

do is to obey orders aud they are cured. OF
course, after the flow of blood has been
stopped care should be taken not to cause
the wound to be reopened, because it would
then begin bleeding again. | can, however,
stop bleeding for the second and third time,
and even oftener."

Correspondence of the Boston Transcript.
Ex-Presdent Cleveland, with his summer
home at Marion, some seven miles across
the bay, writes a correspondent from Mon
ument Beach, has lately found both profit
and pleasure in diverse piscatorial visits to
upper Cape Cod, and the honor is duly ap-
preciated by all classes of our people

is not the least of the allurements
which have lately brought the ex-President
into rather intimate relations with the
peculiar but charming scenery which here
abounds. 1t is safe to say that in the last
fortnight Mr.. Cleveland has thrown his
flies more times into more brooks than any
other man since Daniel Webster, who, with
men like Sidney Bartlett and the Austins
under the guidance of old Johnny Trout, ~
frequented these same streams fifty years
ago. The stream owners have We'd with

ter has not been backward in coming fer
ward" to avail himself of the hospitality
which has enable him to carry home TO the
late gracious lady of the white house heavy
baskets Of as rilliant-colored trout as are
found in any waters on which the sun
shines.
Mr.. Cleveland throws a fairly good flv,
and what is more, he keeps throwing his fl Y
until he captures his fish. His admirers
may be sure If the fact that Mr.. Cleveland
can stand throwing flies in a broling sun
as many hours as any man in the calendar,
and counting weight few men of his inches
can match his freshness when he is DONE
If he fights in the future for his
political mind as persistently as he
does for his fish, he will be found
a very dogged foeman. It is but just to
say that he has made many new friends
among our people. Here he shows up
as the simplest hammered of men-quiet,
frank. hearty, and entirely without
airs or pretence. Only those who look for
a man to say what he does not think will be
misled by the simple and spontaneous words
Of this man, who seems always TO be saying
what he does think. The writer of these
lines, stranger to this man, but watching
him a couple of days on his own trout
brook, is of the mind that here is strong
man of simple manners and downright
opinions inflexible in his distinctions be-
tween right and wrong, who, with strong
physique holding q clear mind, will in the
days to come fight out his battle with his
political antagonists with power and per-
slstency at which no wise man will venture
to laugh.
