IT 60 TO THEE"
An Aged Florist Takes Poison
Over the Grave of His Wife.

Ma pauvre femme, sans tot la vie ma plus
de charmcs." These words were heard few
days since by a visitor to Calvary Cemetery.
Translated, they mean: Poor wife, without
you, life has no charms" They were ut
tered by an old man who was busy placing
flowers on a grave, arranging them in an
artistic manner, placing one here and an
other there, and stopping occasionally TO
wipe away tears that coursed down his fur
rowed cheeks. Then he would raise his
uncovered head to the blue vault above, and
while the gentle breeze tossed his silyery
hair lie uttered fervent prayer, ending
with the words quoted above. Day after
day he visited the spot, bringing fresh flow
ers, uttered his prayer and with tear-filled
eyes Yesterday was no exception to the
rule, but he brought an unusual quantity of
bright flowers 10 deck the last resting-place

the last time that he repeated the words he
had so often spoken. and these he supple
plemented with "Je te rejoinS" Is go to
thee"). His labor of love for one who, for
many years, had been his constant compan-
ion was ended.
Some time after he had been seen in the
attitude of earnest prayer, some one passing
by the grave saw the old man lying along
side of it. and on approaching discovered
that he was dead. A vial that had contained
sirychnine told palmer than words the man.

CANYASSING RETURNS.

Sixteen Precincts Completed and No
Se-dous Error Found.
The offiSial canvass now in progress by
the Election Commissioners was interrupted
sSfly in the proceedings yesterday by the
sudden appearance of n. S. Writ, Familiarity
known, where he is known at ALL rs Police
Court Shyster, who eXcitedly demanded that
he be allowed to file an affidavit that votes
cast for him had not been counted.
Mayor Pond asked what office he had
been cand date for, and he replied for the
second Board OF Supervisors, which he in
sisted must be elected under the Constitu-
ton.
The Mayor informed him there had been
no election called for any such board, and
votes SO cast would not be counted.
Wirts name appeared on blue ballot got
up by some wag. 1t was not on any other
ticket and had not appeared among the
scattering votes.
The days work commenced on the Fifth
Precinct OF the ThirtIeth Assembly Dis
trict, in which one very important error had
been made on the semi-ofical bulletins.
George Ii. Smith, candidate for Supreme
Justice, had been credited with two votes,
when, in fact, he had received LOG. Some
eighteen or twenty smaller errors were
found.
Tie tally-sheet in the Sixth Precinct was
found missing, and on sending for the
chief Inspector it was found that he had
kept IL in his own possession. The same
discovery was made in the Twelfth Pre-
cinct Of that district.
Twenty-seven small errors were found in
the Seventh Precinct. The Tenth was full
of errors. Garroutte was given when he
was entitled to SO; Smith, for Associate
Justice. got when he was entitled to liz {;
