VI. Daudet has never had large circle of m

and foes in the application Of 1t. so when Flau-

and took it seriously She believed her uncle
really was dead and she fell i'll and nearly died
in consequence. Flaubert at once broke of all

Despite his mercless powers Of satire, NJ. Dau
Diet Is eminently fair and impartial in his judg-
ments and for that reason has often been called
upon TO act ar arbitrator in disputes between
authors and publishers. For himself. he can have
little ground Of complaint against the latter, for
he has made fortune out Of his books. For the
past sixteen years he has enjoyed such fame and
fortune as are the lot of few of letters. 1t
Is said that he received no less than
100000 for his "Sapho" His Tar
tarin' series also yielded him fortune: and The
same may be said Of The Nabob,' Kings in
Exile Numa Roumestan" Partners" Jack"
and, indeed, of all his novels He has not written
one unsuccessful book. His plays, too, have at
tanned a fair measure of success. Despite his
failing health. which is said TO threaten his mental
powers, he still keeps at work. and there are re-
ports that he will presently give to the world some
new and important fruits of his genius.

The Effect of the Elections.

fUC EUGCt " tNU EtCItfVNSs
The result of last Tuesdays cleo
tons indicate drawn battle be-
tween the two parties. In some To-
calities the ballot has been favora-
BILE to the Republicans, in others to
the Democrats. In Ohio there was
square contest between protection
and limited coinage on one side, and
tariff reform and free silver on the
other. Mr.. Mckinley, the cham
pion of the former, is elected, but
close examination Of figures will
not show anything remarkable
about it. He has not carried the
state by as large majorities as were
given Garfield, Blaine or Harrison.
McKinley's election was forgone
conclusion. 1t was the Mckinley
majority that was to cut the figure,
and that majority is not significant.
1t is in Kansas, Nebraska and
Dakota that the Republicans have
redeemed themselves. In those
states the Farmers Alliance power
seems to be on the wane, and the
Republicans have made gains ac-
cordingly. Good crops have pro-
auced better feeling among the
farmers and they have returned tc
the old party.
The Democrats have made de-
cided gains in Iowa, New York anc
in the south, and, surprising to say
the greatest Democratic gains in
New York came from the rural dis
tricts.
The whole result means that Their
