The hardest fight in Michigan was in
the Fifth District, where successor TO the
late Congressman Melvin II. Ford was
elected. The republicans were victorious.
Capt Charles E. BellSnap was elected by
a plurality of about 1900. The former
figure is the estimate of the republican
congressional committee, but some of the
political figurers insist upon the latter num-
Der. A large vote was called out in Grand
Rapids, but only about two-thirds of the
country vote appears TO have been
polled, judging from the returns from
Grand Rapids, which was regarded as
democratic stronghold, gave Belknap, re-
publican, plurality of l46 votes. There
were four candidates, Belknap, rep, 1895;
Lawrence, dem, 4, 104; Hutchins. peoples.

plurality, Ottawa county about 400, Allie
gan county $50, Kent county, outside Of
Grand Rapids, ABOUT 300.

nicipal elections, but this year shows
great gain for the republicans. Hazen S.

mayor has been reelected with good ma
iority. There were four tickets in the
field The republican headed by Hazen 5.
Pingree; regular democratic, John Miner;

rality 1924. Out of 10 aldermen to be

Polo Notes.

The lovers of the game of polo were agreeably surprised at the superb game put up by the home team with the Hart lords on Monday evening at the local rink Every man of them played a brilliant game, and to say that the Hartfords were not ''in it" at any stage of the game is only putting it mildly. Whiting played half back in place of Phelan, who it is said does not intend to play this season, as he is very comfortably installed in busi ness in Salem, Mass, where he has charge of branch house for a large Boston firm He may, however, take a hand in tho game before the season is over.
 Whiting played magnificent blocking game, and the Hartford players found il utterly impossible to throw him off hi. feet when they ran up against him time
 and again, although he is a much lighter ! man than any other man on the Hartford l team. In fact the team from Sloopvills | have by far the heaviest team of any 1T | the league.
 Allen, who played at goal in place O. Reed, who is laid of by injuries sustained | in the exhibition game with Bridgeport or l odouIod WdS siLnp1y d BUILD wall dHu Bur | prised his many friends by kicking out tn, short range drives in d manner that mad,
 the Hartfords decidedly weary, as he le
 them score only one goal against the hom,
 team. He stopped that but it glanced of | and bounded in. Newcombe and Woodtk, were all over the rink and if they can pla,
 such game through the season they car
 rest assured they will be crowned th'
 kings of rushers. Cotter will have to lool
 sharp for his laurels.
 l Captain Billy Hill can hold his own witl
 any center in the league, and to him a
 much as to any one man on the team ma,
 be placed the credit of the team putting u]
 such a stiff game. He was particularl..
 able in coaching and in his sharp, quicl
 passing game and terrific drives for goa
 that were beyond Swords comprehension
 The large audience were well repaid fo
 their attendance, and no doubt still large

CURED OF PARALYSIS.

Story of a Lady Miraculously Re- stOred-Dr. Damon Astonishes the People by His Many Marvellous Cures.
 There is nothing like plain facts to con- vince the skeptical, and this is what Dr. Damon and his associate physicians have been presenting to the people of New Haven and vicinity for over year. Al most every day some remarkable restora- tion is reported, and we are free to admit that such facts of cures have never been presented by any other system of treat ment since the world began. So much has tenn of practice in all the prin- cipal papers of the country that we cannot add one whit to the grand results so frequently spoken of by us in the past. So we will contine our selves to mere presentation of still an- other phenomenal cure of lady brought from Northampton, Mass. This lady had been a long and patient sufferer with pa- ralysis of the left side. She was wholly unable to walk without canes to steady herself. In connection with the paralysis there were certain uterine and liver troubles that kept the lady in a weak and debilitated condition. Through friends living in New Haven she was induced to
 
 ment, and now, thanks to Dr. Damon and his assistants, she is able to return to her home alone.
 The following letter, which was received recently from her, will be of interest: Northampton, Maas., Oct. 15, 1891. Dr.. Damon, Dear Sir: It affords me great pleasure to be able to write you of my wonderful improvement, and recommend to others who may be suffering as was your treatment. For two years I have been troubled with paralysis of my left side, and l have been forced to use canes to enable me to walk at all. heard of you through friends and decided to place myself under the treatment. had seven external treatments, together with such medicines as were needed. then return ed home and have resumed my daily avo- cation, walking mile and half each way to and from my work without the aid of cane or crutch. This I consider great test, for was not able to work or walk before had the treatment. I would glad ly tell anyone personally or by letter of my cure, as I had tried many others with no help whatever.
 You have my permission to make any use of this letter you may wish. I feel that cannot say enough in praise of the treatment that has cured me. Respectful ly yours, Mss E. M. CLARK,
 Box 49, Northampton, Mass.
 The above speaks fer itself, but Dr. Da- mon has, at his office, 928 Chapel street, New Haven, many testimonials like the above which he would be pleased to show to any honest investigator, or one who wants to got well.

No Temporary Depot to be Built at
 Bridgeport.


 Bridgeport.
 The Consolidated people will not erect 8 temporary station at Bridgeport because the Housatonic object. In the agreement which the superior court imposed on these corporations, the Consolidated was to use the old depot until the new one was finish ed and the Housatonic road intends to make them act in accordance with the agreement.
 A director of the Consolidated road said in reference to this matter ''It is true in depot property to the Housatonic com pany, the Consolidated road reserved the use of the property until their new depot was constructed. The question regarding | the elevation of the tracks through this city not having been determined upon, | the Consolidated road proposed erecting g l temporary structure on the east side of the | tracks for the accommodation of the pub l lie.
 Before doing so we requested the Hous | atomic company to waive that clause in the l contract, but they objected. Consequent | ly the Consolidated road suspended the erection of the proposed temporary build ing and will probably widen the east plat form and enclose it on the east side. The
 company will also probably erect an awinf
 forty feet in width, extending from th' present depot across the tracks to the eas | platform. This will in all probability b, l done as soon as possible for the better pro l lection of passengers.
