Henry B. Faulkner, one OF the fore,
most Democrats Of Maine, according
to New York dispatch, said in that
city on Monday that the Democrats In
Speaker Reeds district will make a
heroic effort to defeat his reelection
In September. "There Is only paltry
1000 difference in the vote Of the two
parties in the district; and If we do
our best we can win" he said. Ac-
cording to the statement Of the New
York Times correspondent, referred to
by US yesterday, the result in Speaker
Reeds district is entirely a matter of
dollars and cents, about % per cent Of
the voters oeing as purchasable as
hogs or cattle. AS the Republicans at
most former elections had most mon
ey to spend, they carried the district;
but II the Democrats can raise larger
purse than Reed and his friends.
there is nothing in the way of their
success. Politics seem TO cut no fig
lre with the voters in the district-it
IS purely a matter Of dollars and cents
and regarded as equally fair by both
sides.

Special to the Gazette.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Nov. 2S.-Sensa-
tiOns, like troubles, never come single.
Yesterday Guthrie was excited over the
Commercial bank failure; this evening
she has two accidental killings to make
her record. The first tradgedy of
the daV was the killing OF
Miss Lucy Douglass at Stewart, in
this county, by her own hands. 1t
appears she was one OF family from
Dlde county. No. prospecting through
the Territory. Thew camped for the
night, and this morning while she was
loading up the wagon a pistol under
one OF the pillows Has accidentally
discharged, the hall taking effect in the
neck, producing instant death. The re-
mains were brought TO this city and are
now in the hands of the undertaken pre-
pnratory to shipment to her old home in
Missouri. The victim WAS IL most prepOs-
sessing young lady fourteen wears Of age.
She was accompanied by her parents and
other members of the family, all of
whom have the sympathy of the public
generally. The remains were this after
noon viewed by hundreds of the curious
inclined. and the sight that met their
gaze wes of most pitiahle character.
The second tragedy was that OF
young Albert L. Russell of this
city, who, by the accidental dis
charge of II target gun with which he
was fooling, met All untinely death.
This wound, like that of the young
lady, was instantly mortal and purely
accidental.
There are no new developments in the
amounts of the at achments. which now
aggregate about So. 900. 1t has not
been ascertained with any degree
of certainty as TO the extent
of the assets. The vaults have not
been opened, but disclosures of rank
fraud are expected when such action is
taken. The officers of the bank have
not yet shown up, nor are they liable TO
do SO, il rumors are to be believed.

LONDON, Nov. 22.-From Berlin
comes the news that places for the use OF

discovered for the cure of consumption,

the German military, the emperor being
convinced that the great invention will
save the lives of thousands of his soldiers
now sacrificed to consumption instead Of
being reserved for slaughter III the next
great war. Indeed. the kaiser seems
to put more stress on this than any other
feature of the discovery. The kaiser is
giving every announcement to Professor
Koch in his experiments, and has already
intimated that whenever the success OF
the method is bryon doubt or ravil a
title will be bestowed on the inventor in
evidence Of the gratitude of the sover-
eiGn and the country.
The kaiser appears to be really getting
afraid OF socialism, as he alludes to 1t

The coming of this popular actor and

terest to the the theater-going people of

Mobiles represents what is best in the
theatr cal profession. He ia repre-
sentative American; he writes American
plays exclusively; his incidents are
such as could reasonably occur
aud his characters are flesh and blood
realities. The strongest Endorsement of
the play is that 1t received the I'M
qualified praise OF the San Francisco
press. When We consider that the frs;
two acts are located i'll California, and
that the characters are local types, this
Endorsement means something. From
