The system must be keyed up at this sea-
son of the year, else sickness will be the re-
suit. Kltnes celebrated "Silver Age" and
'Duquesne" rye can always be depended
upon as a tonic. Physicians everywhere in

Claimed by Democrats.
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-[Special. THE Sen
ate stands 16 to 16, with the deciding vote
in the hands of Speaker Sheehan, the new
Lieutenant Governor. Edward B. Osborne,
Democrat, elected in the Dutchess district
over Deane, makes the sixteenth Senator
for his party. perby's election over Col
Inns. in the Rensselaer, district, is Demo-
cratic loss, and the report of the election
of Hoyt over Donaldson in the Saratoga dis
trict, which would have evened up this loss,
is now regarded as a mistake. The Demo-
Gratis do not concede it, however. The sue
cessful candidate in Fassett's district is de-
clared ineligible, not having resigned
local Office 100 days before the election.
In the Assembly it is still impossible to
speak definitely Of several districts. The
Democratic claim of the election of Beakes
in Sullivan by one majority and the success
of Frank D. Smith in the Fifth Erie Dis
trct and of Goldberg in the Second Erie Dis
trict, adds to the Democratic strength so
fully as to make sure of vote of IS Dem

How to Hang Pictures.

Never put somber-colored picture in the
shade. Put it where the light will fall
upon it, says the Ladies' Home Journal Be-
tween two windows place pictures with
light backgrounds that will stand out the
more prominent by reason Of theirdark sur
roundings. Hang the big pictures first, in
suitable positions, and group with smaller
ones in two rows in between. Be careful
that the pictures do not conflict in color.
Use your own taste in this. Hang the pic
lures on a level with the eye, unless they
be, as some are, pictures which should be
looked up to. Place small pictures in cor
ners and alcoves. Over doors place large
and unimportant canvases, anything that
looks we'll. Water-colors may be hung on
the same wall with oils when framed in
gold, but not when framed in white. White
margins on etehings and engravings don't
go well with oils.

AGAINST CONVICT LABOR.
Workingmen Expect the Assistance of the
Alliance in the Fight.


ST. PAUL. Nov. Sat the meeting of
the Commission yesterday the trend.of the
discussion clearly indicated that the five
Senators thereon favored the plan of
having the granite for the new capital
building quarried and dressed at the
st. Louis Reformatory by the convicts.
T o-day the champions of free labor are
claiming that the Commissions informal
decision will, if followed out, result harm
fully to free labor in general and to the
granite cutters of st. Cloud in particular.
They say that if thf Commissions plan
''goes" the State Federation will take
hand in the fight, and if the Commissioners
are not brought to time it will not be the
fault of the Federation. The convict labor
men say the Alliance, as an organization.
will second the Federation's demand for the
sake of assistance from labor men.

for the first month in the new Government

litical parties, but the postmaster thinks
there will be a general improvement notice
able hereafter and the new building will
be largely factor in causing it.
