ONE TOUCH OF NATURE.

The town is overrun just now with mendi-
csnts Of all descriptions, from the man who
was blown up IN the explosion to the
MINDLESS organ grinder and the legless
vendor of pencils. The supplicants for
aims have become SO numerous of late that
the public's stock of sympathy is just
about exhausted, and contributions are
small. Last night woman whose thin
and well-worn dress and pinched features
told of poverty and privation, took her po-
sition on Walkers corner. She had a
little baby In her arms, and the sign on her
rickety hand-organ informed the passers-
by that her husband was dead, and that
she had three children TO care for. After
seating herself n comfortably as
she could on the pavement
she started up the organ and such
pity-inspiring tones IS "Annie Rooney
and Where Did You Get That Hat
filed the air. The pedestrians Quickened
their pace as the dolorous noise of the
organ reached their ears, and the groups
of bystanders drew further away from the
corner. No one noticed the woman and
her baby. The cold night wind cut the
thinly clad child, and with plaintive
wall IL nestled closer to its mothers
breast Its cries were heard above the
noise OF the organ, and presently the latter
ceased. The men commenced TO gravitate
towards that baby, and saw the mother
wrap tattered shawl about it and hum a
lullaby, but the baby only turned its little

white face towards the light and cried the
louder. Nearly every pedestrian halted at
the corner and looked curiously at the
scene. There was something in that
baby's wall that reached every heart.
1t was 1.-The one touch of nature" and
iusunctively every mans hand went
down in his pocket Then big policeman,
of duty, sauntered through the circle,
looked up at the sky and carelessly drop
ping a coin in the little tin cup hurried on.
A gentleman wearing a silk hat followed
him and dropped couple of coins from his
gloved fingers into the cup. Next lady
in seal skin cloak dropped her tribute
into the cup. A ragged newsboy followed
with nickle, and then there was regular
stream of contributors and the money
fairly ratified into the cup. One urchln ran
| off to buy that there kid some candy" and
SO it went on. BY the time the baby
quit crying the cup was about full, and the
mother, doubtless wondering what had
butchered the hearts of the people and
brought her such an amount of wealth,
picked up her organ and moved off to hel
cheap lodging.

The morning and evening mists that per-
wade the atmosphere of malarios localities
cannot be breathed with impunity. A safe
guard is needed TO render harmless the
dangerous miasmata with which they are
impregnated The surest, safest defense
is Hostetter's Stomach sBitters. 1t is an
sntidote TO the poison which has already
been inhaled and borne fruit, an adequate
preventive of its harmful effects. No pre-
parative for breathers of miasma tainted

like the bitters. 1t completely neutralizes
the otherwise irresistible onset of the
aerial foe. Settlers on newly cleared land

Guests of the hotel Templeton noticed
very handsome woman frequently mount
ing horse in front Of the main entrance
and galop up Brigham street at a rafting
pace.
She had very trim riding habit that
made her look tall and stately and there
was a rather dreamy languor about her soft
eyes that gave her subdued look, quite
opposite to the bold stare of the common
show women.
But she was not at all afraid Of the men,
and kind of liked to prolong her mounts to
attract attention from the commercial
tourists and city bloods who frequent the
chairs in front of the hotel when the
weather is favorable. There would always
be something she had forgotten and to
give excuse for her hanging back the porter
would be asked 10 go back and "fetch''
some trinket she had omitted to bring with
her.
who is shep was asked by all who saw
her cut her capers on horseback.
''She is a circus rider and came here to
wait for Forepaugh's show" volunteered
enc of the hotel clerks.
The woman was known professionally as

Josephine had taken fancy 10 the hote
waiter, and was never happy unless he
was with her. She invited him to the
springs and would pay the carriage hire

drinks, all at her own expense.

First Use Of False Teeth.

The last thing one would expect to- find
in use among the sncients is false teeth.
Yet recent excavations in old Roman
cemeteries have elected the fact that those
mysterious people, the Etruscans, re-
placed the loss of their own teeth by the
insertion of those of animals, fastened in
their places by means of small gold bands,
which latterly gave place to the present
plate. In 1885, Sir John Blagrave had s
set of ivory teeth inserted and fixed by a
gold plate.

Special Dispatch TO the Evening Star.
DEs MoryEs. Iowa, Nov. 3.-EIection in
progress in Iowa is one of the most holly con-
tested fights ever made in thestate. The total
vote will undoubtedly exceed total vote for
president in 1889. Both parties are hopeful,
and at this early date it is impossible
to make any definite predictions as to
the outcome. kilograms received at the
state headquarters of the respective committees
indicate that both parties are making very
large gains in the cities The question is what
party is making greatest gains. The weather
is raw and threatening, with light rain
reported from the southwestern part Of
the state. This may affect the VOTE

kerr's Election Conceded - Republicans
Splitting the Ticket.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
BALTIMORE, Nov. S.-within an hour
and half of the closing Of the
polls all the indications are still favorable
to the election of the entire democratic ticket.
OF course the Australian ballot system makes
it much more difficult to give any actual esti-
mates, as could always be done under the old
system, but pretty safe forecast can be made
from the manner and progress of the voting in
the various precincts.
The independents are not as hopeful as they
were since they have watched the progress of
the voting. and are vigorously accusing the
democratic managers of fraud.
KERRs POSSIBLE MAJORITY
There is practically no doubt now that Kerr,
the democratic candidate for states attorney.
will run along well with his ticket, and possibly
ahead Of n. Men whoksve dp to this time de-
clared that he would be defeated now concede

The stay-at-home republican vote is very
large. Some democrats are cutting Kerr, but
these Objections will be more than offset by
republican accessions. There have been no
arrests and not the slightest disturbance OF the
peace all day. 1t has been the most quiet and
orderly election in Baltimore for great many
years.
1t is the first time the Australian ballot sys-

Respectable Voters in Chicago Pleased with
Ballot Reform.


Ballot Reform.
CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-The weather is cloudy, but
not threatening, hero today. A favorable day
for full vote, and considerable interest is
being manifested in the election, although only
local issues are involved. Cook county today
elects two superior judges, a county superin-
tendcnt of schools. eight county commissioners
and two trustees of the sanitary or drainage
district of Chicago. The proposition to refund
l,3s0, 900 county bonds, maturing May l, 1892,
is also being voted upon.
1t is the first election in this city under the
ballot-reform law enacted by the last legisla-
ture, but up to this hour respectable voters are
expressing much satisfaction with the new law.
The blanket ballot system was the one
adopted by the legislature and as an official bal
lot containing in separate columns the nomi-
nees of all parties is furnished by the judges
The ticket peddler has, therefore, lost his
vocation and party henchmen are not allowed
to loiter within 100 feet of the polls
-Four tickets are in the field, the republican,
the democratic, prohibition and peoples trade
and labor. A large vote is being cast, but
there is no data upon which to predict the re-
suit OF the election. 1t is quite likely the vic
tory will not be decisive as to either party, the
vote being generally scattered and party lines
not tightly drawn.
