Connectieut.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 20. lntelli-
gencc Of the greatest Importance as
bearing upon the contested Governship
has Just been received in this city. 1t
is the decision Of Judge Hall, a Repnb-
lican, IN contested judge Of probate
case at East Lynne, that paster put

ticket, makes the ballot Illegal under
the State ballot law
On almost all of the Prohibition bal
lots in this State the Judge OF probate
names were left blank and the name
was written in for each probate district
Under Judge Halls ruling this would
throw out some $500 Prohibition bal
lots in the State and elect Morris Dem }

Judge Halls decision is the more sig
niticant, as it gave the Democratic can
didate the Office in East Lynne district.

FAST STEAMBOATS,,
The Record Not Broken for Forty
Years.

The Record Not Broken for Forty
Years.
w. 7. Pepper, of the Soldiers home,
writes as follows about fast steamboats, ::
EDITORS HERALD hear it frequently
said that the recent performances of Mr..
Will Hearst's new steam yacht Vamose
was really wonderful While it must
be admitted that great progress has been
made within the last two or three de-
cades in the building of vessels and ma
chinery, the writer does not hesitate to
assert that nothing has been gained in
special instances in the way of speed for
forty years.
In support of my assertion, which will
probably strike the reader of this gener-
alton as being the output of truly good
Chicago man, reference is made to the
fact that twenty years ago the Robert E..
Lee covered the distance between New
Orleans and Red Church, distance of
twenty-five miles, against current
twice as strong as that of the Hudson
river below Albany, in one hours time.
The steamer j. M. White performed the
same feat ten years before, initiating the
example of the Peytona, under Captain
Thalcross, set more than ten years pre-
viously-in 1848, think.
AS these facts are matters of record,
within easy access of your New Orleans
exchanges, it is hoped they will see that
the laurels won by old Mississippi boat
men, now lying at their last anchorage,
are kept green.

So says Jenness-Miller, the famous

writer in medical journal says ssFace
powders and toilet preparations have a
legitimate use in the toilette of every
woman and a use properly made need
not any more than the proper use of q
perfume displease any one, while it
cannot be denied that they add to the.
personal beauty and attractiveness and
give to the wearer an expression that
can be interpreted by any practical OBJ
server to mean that THIS WOMAN is NEAT
AND CAREFUL ABOUT HER PERSON AND
HOLDS A JUST PRIDE IN BEAUTFYING HER
SELF. In the use of toilet preparations
it is easy to distinguish the well-bred
from the vulgar" Another well-known

kindred subject. What he says:
