Mr.. MarstOn Writes an Interesting
Letter Descriptive of His Recent
Visit to his Old Home.

Especial Correspondence Of the GOd Leaf
My recent return from England has
been quite an ovation of cordial wei
come by my many friends to whom |
wish to return my sincere thanks.
From the many solicitations re-
ceived / am led to infer that | am
expected to give an interesting
and gushing account of things in
cidental to my iourneyings by sea
and by land, but L fear there will be
general disappointment as my travels
in England were not extensive enough
to furnish vocabulary of interesting
incidents worthy an insertion in the
GOLD LEAF. Had [ visited London
and got an introduction to Court L
might then try TO describe my awk-
ward and embarrassing attempt to act
the ''courtier.'' There are many in
teresting places in England which, had
/ the time and opportunity to visit,
would have furnished quite volume of
interesting intelligence.
You remember, sir, inserting in your
issue of June 5th, last year, an account
of my voyage from America to Liver
DOOl WHICH We llCcUi not ICIJCdt.
If it would not be considered egotis-
teal will endeavor to describe as in
terestingly as l can a few incidents
connected with the grand scenery of
what is to me the most sacred spot on
earth-my own dear native Welsh
mountain home-which has monopo-
liked the greater portion of my time
during my sojourn i'll England.
On landing at Liverpool L naturally
turned my face and footsteps in the
direction of the place of my nativity.
Thatnever- to-be-forgotten valley where
my infant eyes first beheld the light, is
surrounded and enclosed by chain of
mountains and hills, the everlasting
relics of grand volcanic scene in the
eternal antecedence of prehistoric
times.
On nearing and again beholding
those stupenduous pillars of nature
the workmanship of Deity could
scarcely realize the fact that l was not
absorbed in mental delusion or wan
dering in a semi-somnambulistic state.

Let's Watch Chilli,

LONDON, Nov. A private dispatch
received from Valparaiso says that the
American cruiser Baltimore is in serious
danger, and that there is reason to be-
lieve that the Chilians. believing wal
inevitable, will not allow the United
States to select their own time to de-
clare war, but will suddenly give Egan
his PASSPORTS and at once attack the
Baltimore, SO as to have the first blow
at an advantage. 1t is not believed
among the foreign residents Of Val
paraiso that the other foreign men-of-
war in Valparaiso harbor would permit
a ~treacherous attack on Captain Schley,
but would demand that he be given fair
notice to quit Valparaiso. Captain
Schley, however, is keeping a vigilant
outlook, and means to take no chance.
Those who know him say he would not
surrender under any circumstances.
The Tory press continues to pour the
walls of its wrath upon the United
States in connection with Chill, the arti-
cles being apparently intended for con-
sumption in Chill or America and being
well calculated to puff that country
with a great idea of Chili's capacity for
defeating the Americans.

The Major Stirring Them Up.

A dispatch from Fargo says: It
seems reasonably certain that Major
Edwards will again be in control of a
Fargo daily paper by the middle OF No
vember, and probably most of old force,
who made the Argus what it was, will
be with him in his new venture. Geo.
X. Shaw has no use for anybody who
will not go back on Major Edwards, and
most of the boys have already left him.
Managing Editor Plumley quit him yes.
terday, Shaw having complained behind
his back that Plumley was too friendly
with Major Edwards, and the party hav-
ing gone at once and told Plumley. He
had been with the Argus for ten wears
aud is personally acquainted with every
man of prominence in North Dakota and
has a host of friends. The Argus bust
ness is to be broken up, the job offices
and bindery being for sale. If Major
Edwards should start a morning p
he would cut a big hole in the Argus
subscription list.

IOWA.

BOIES Has EVERYTHING HIS OWN WAY.
DIS MONIES, Nov.4.- Thirty=four coun-
ties complete in Iowa, out of a total of
49, in the state, gives Boies a plurality
over Wheeler of 1906. The same coun-
ties in 1889 gave Boies a plurality of
1855, making a net gain this year of
1881. The remaining counties gave
ssBoies Q plurality in 1889 of 5,24S, which
would indicate the claim of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee this
afternoon, that the state would give
Boies a plurality of from 5000 to 10000.
This majority will be sustained by re-
turns when all in. The republican gains
III the country districts are not as large
as the first indications promised. Van
sHouten, republican candidate for lieu
tenant governor, however, is running
ahead Of his ticket, and meagre returns
now encourage the republicans to believe
that he may yet win. The legislature, it
is believed, will be a tie in the senate and
q republican majority in the house. The
republicans, however, claim a majority
IN both houses. The democrats have
elected railroad commissioner beyond
doubt. Chairman Mack this evening
comedies Boies election by 5000 plurality

Philadelphia and Allegheny and careful
estimates for the other fourteen counties
show a plurality of 56,608 for Gregg, re-

The proposition for the constitutional
convention is overwhelmingly rejected,
only ten counties in the state gave ma

forty-two counties, from which complete
returns have been received on the vote
on the question, there is a net majority
of 154,590 against holding the conven-

Highbinders at Work,

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.-Chinese
highbinders have begun their warfare
again in earnest. EARLY Sunday morn

found lying in a Chinatown alley bleed
ing from bullet wounds. They refused
to give any facts about their assailants,
though me is in a critical condition.

LOOKS LIKE A WATERLOO.
DIES MONIES, Nov. AFTER the great
battle Of yesterday, the smoke is clear
ing away. Republicans find themselves
defeated and democrats are beginning to
celebrate their victory. Governor Boies
arrived in Des Moines tonight from
Waterloo. Democrats are preparing to
give him a royal welcome. The streets
are packed with excited people shouting
for Boies. At the Register office COM
plete returns from So counties have been
received. Up to 8 o'clock in these there
is a net democratic gain of 8O6. If the
gain is kept up tonight in the remaining
sixteen counties, his plurality will be in
the neighborhood of 5000, a gain of 1000
over two years ago. Returns on the
other state officers are scattering. If
Boies' plurality is 5000, as now prom
Used, the rest of the democratic ticket
will be elected by small pluralities. Re-
publicans have some hopes for Van
Houten, for Acknowledgements, who is
running away ahead of Wheeler in pre-
cincts that have reported. They also
claim Saber, republican, for superintend-
ent of instruction. Democrats claim
their whole state ticket is elected. It
will take fuller returns than can O be
obtained to decide the fate of the ticket
below governor.

KANSAS,
FARMERS ALLIANCE LOST POy

FARMERS ALLIANCE LOST POWER.
TOPEKA, Kas., Nov. 4.-The power of
the Farmers Alliance in Kansas politics
is broken for a time, at least. The ALI
ance met a crushing defeat at the polls
yesterday. The general result is best
indicated by the returns from ten judi
cial districts. In only one was the ALI
ance candidate successful-that district
comprising the counties of Kingman,
Pratt and Kiowa, where the alliance
elected William Bashore. That was
formerly the stronghold of the Union
Laborites, who joined the alliance when
the latter went into politics. Besides
there we're two republican candidates in
the field there, which divided the repub-
lican strength. In the nine districts re-
naming seven of the successful candi-
dates are republicans and two are demo-
Gratis. In two of the districts the repub-
licans and democrats combined against
the alliance. A special to the Star, in
dependent, from Topeka says: Demo.
Gratis and republicans alike profess to
believe that the peoples party in this
state is out of power to stay out and
that the fight next year will be on the
old lines. There is something touching
in the greeting of the old party politi-
clans, who have fought each other for
wears. The crushing a1liapca dofoot i,

Revolution in Brazil,

WASHINGTON, 1.-The reported revolu-
tionary movementin Brazil, accompanied
by declaration of martial law and the
establishment of a dictatorship, is likely
to cause another demand upon the al
ready strained u of our navy, for
it is regarded as necessary for the pro
lection OF American interests that the
United States naval force be at hand
there, in case of a formidable outbreak.
The only vessels regularly attached to
the South Atlantic station now in the
vicinity of Rio de Janerio are the Essex
and Tallapoosa. The FIRST is an old
wooden cruiser and the second a worm
out and unservicable and offered for
sale. The Boston is off the Brazilian
coast enroute to the Pacific, but it is
not probable she will be detained. The
Yorktown, however, was at Bahai, Bra
I'll, Saturday, and she will probably be
ordered by cable to remain there or
return to Santos, notwithstanding the
fact that she is also on her way to the
Pacific station. Meanwhile, the work of
repair on the Newark at Boston, is being
pressed, and in case of any emergency
admiral Gherardis, flag ship Philadel-
phia, now on her way to West Indies
from New York, could be ordered by
cable to proceed to Rio de Janerio.
THE CASE OF THE
LISBON, Nov. "A cipher despatch
from Rio de Janerio attributes the crisis
there to the action of the Brazilian con-
gress in passing a bill depriving the
president of the right of veto. All tele-
grams are subject to strict censorship.

Is Alum Poisonous?
lRall's journal of Health.

''This question has caused a good deal
of discussion. Alum is used by many
bakers to Written their bread, enabling
them to use an inferior -four. 1t is most
extensively employed as a cheap substi-
tute for cream of tartar in the manufac-
ture of baking powders. It has not
been considered Immediately dangerous;
although if continued it induces dys-
pepsia and obstinate constipation. But
the fact that many cases of poisoning
have occurred from the use of alum, puts
the question in a more serious aspect,
and prudent people will exercise caution
in the selection of baking powders"
"Under what conditions then, does this
substance-formerly used only for me-
chanical or medicinal purposes-become
poisonous? They are certainly obscure.
and at present we can only surmise what
they may be. We suspect that the cause
exists in the individual poisoned; some
popularity of the constitution produc-
ing a morbid change in the secretions
Of the stomach, with which the alum
combines and forms ar active poison; or
the secretions may be healthy but in I'M
usual proportions, and that these less or
greater proportions in combination with
the alum constitute a poison"
nFor example, two parts of mercury
n two parts Of chlorine from calomel,
which is not poisonous, but change the
proportions to one part mercury and two
parts Of chlorine, and we get corrosive
aublimate, which iss deadly poison.

Proof Better Than Assertion,

With such proof as the following letter
from w. H. Dean of No. 279 Seventh St.,
New York, it is not necessary to make
the bare assertion that Allcock's Porous
Plasters cure lumbago. Nj. Dean says:
"Some ten days ago I was taken with
a very violent pain in the small of my
back. 1t was so severe that I could
hardly breathe; every movement caused
great agony. 7 finally found out it was
lumbago. Being entirely helpless, a
friend sent to a druggist and got two
Allcock's Porous Plasters; these were
well warmed and applied to my back,
one above the other. In half an hour, to
my great delight and surprise, I found
the pain began to abate. In two hours
was able to walk ont and attend to my
business, the pain being almost gone.
