STOLE HER CHILD.
Mrs. Deacon la Princesse Americaine',
Makes Another Sensation.

4 ,
Makes Another Sensation.
PARIS, November 4.-Another great
sensation has developed in the Deacon
case. AS soon as the tribunal of the
Seine delivered it's decision dismissing
Mrs. Deacon's S suit for divorce and order
ing that the eldest child, then in con-
vent, be delivered up to Mr.. Deacon,
Mrs. Deacon hastened secretly to the
Convent of Our Lady of the Assumption
in the Department of Marine, bent upon
carving off the child and thus both de-
flying the authority of the French Court
and battling Mr. Deacon. The synpa-
thies of the nuns of the convent and of
the people Of the neighborhood have
been with Mrs. Deacon. who was known
to the latter as La Princesse Americaine,
and was much beloved for her goodness
and kindness to the poor and suffering.
When Mrs. Deacon arrived the news of
the Courts decision was unknown at the
convent, and Mrs. Deacon was admitted
as usual But little is known of what
occurred within the walls. Mrs. Deacon
had carriage at the gate, and she
seemed calm and serene as usual, evil
IDENTIFY suppressing her emotions in Or
der not to excite suspicion.
She asked and obtained leave to take
the older of the children to ride and, af-
ter kissing the younger tenderly, she
walked with the other to the carriage.
At first she drove slowly, but increased
her speed as the convent and adjoining
group of houses disappeared from view.
Mr.. Deacon drove up to the convent
shortly after his wife had gone. He was
amozed and maddened when he learned
the situation, but no more amazed than
the Lady Superior when she learned the
strategy of Mrs. Deacon. Mr.. Deacon
at once appealed to the police who readi-
ly Joined him in attempting to overtake
his wife. It seems impossible that she
could escape from France, as sthe police
everywhere have been informed to be on
the lookout and to arrest her and the
child wherever found. Deacon is deter
mined to get possession of sthe child.

He talked with the leading strikers at

BALTIMORE, Nd, November News
has been received here of terrible cy-
clone visiting Old Providence and San
Andrea, in the Caribbean sea- on the 9th
of October, prostrating houses and whole
cocoanut plantations. The loss is placed
at 100000. The cyclone began about 2
o'clock in the morning at San Andres.
The wind was first a strong gale from
the northeast. 1t increased rapidly un-
til everything about the island began to
shake from its force. In two hours the
wind suddenly shifted to the westward,
and the cyclone was on in earnest.
Many of the little frame houses, charac-
teristic of that part of the world, were
lifted from their foundations and carried
100 feet by the wind. At San Andrea the
cocoanut crops of about fifty planters
were almost entirly ruined, while others
were badly damaged. At Old Provi-
dence the cyclone worked with even
more destructiveness than at San An
drea. The island has population of
about 1900 people in small settlements
The planters houses are elevated from
the ground on piles, leaving space of
about three feet. The wind played
havoc with these little bui dings and
nearly every house on the island was
either badly damaged or completely
wrecked. On the east side of the island
a Baptist church, and another on the
north owned by the same denomination,
disappeared. Although the cyclone last
ed over fourteen hours, no one, so far as
known, was killed.

Instructions Which Leave No Doubt as to
It-Governor Flower Hears of the
Election and Indu1ges in Rather Trite
Rhetorie-TammaDy Now Wants to
Run Davenport's Office,
New York, November 4.-United
States District Attorney Mitchell has
sent the following letter today to United
States Marshal Jacobus and United
States Supervisor of Elections John I.
Davenport:
"Gentlemen,-W. F. Sheehan, chair
man of the Democratic campaign COM
mittee, has called upoa Democrats to en-
force the law. Mr.. Sheehan declares:
'First-That no federal supervision can
go beyond the guard rail- This is not
the law. The law directs the United
States supervisors to take such positions,
whether before or behind the ballot
boxes, as will, in their Judgment, best
enable them to perform their duties. Mr..
Sheehan further declares: Second
United States marshals have no more
right than any other voter to be within
the guard rail of the balloting place.
This is not the law in any case in which
the supervisors OF elections may call a
United States marshal to support and
protect them behind the guard rail OF in
any position whether before or behind
the ballot boxes, which they may, in
their Judgment, have taken and be occu-
pying"
Mr.. Mitchell then quotes the sections
touching OH the point and says "Will
you kindly instruct each supervisor OF
elections and deputy marshal that, when
ever there is any conflict between the
law of the United States and
the law of the state, the law of the
United States is paramount. You will
please inform all such supervisors of
elections and deputy marshals that the
United States intends to carry out the
provisions of section 2,019 of the United
States Revised Statutes and to see that
every supervisor of elections and every
deputy marshal, if requested to support
him by such supervisor of elections,
shall be allowed to take any position be-
hind the guard rail he sees fit on cleo
ton day and that any person interfering
with them in any way while they are in
the performance of their duty on election
day, can at once be arrested without
process, under section 1922, United
States Revised Statutes"

MY Dear sir-When in 1889 had the honor
to be named United States minister to emu. the
entire Mugwump and the very large pro-BrltlSh Isl
section Of the entire Democratic press foully

full approval of my government, was engaged

those Mugwumps and Democrats would never

let me ask, will Irishmen allow to be heaped

nothing abuse as this? would appeal to every

ST.. PAUL, Mimi, November 4.-The
registration for ST. Paul and Minneapo-
lis, which taken together cast one-fourth
of the vote of the state, foots up 70,4O4.
OF these AZ, ,Oo4 are registered in Mime
apolis and 27, 400 in ST. Paul. The Re
publicans claim that their poll shows
that the Democrats will carry St. Paul
by 500 and the Republicans Minneapolis
by 5000. Upon this basis the Republican
state committee claims that the state will
give Harrison plurality of $4,000 on five
electors, and Nelson a plurality for gov
erno of 5000. They also claim that
the four Harrison electors will beat the
four fusion electors from 5000 to 5000
votes.
The Democrats, on the other hand,
say Cleveland will carry ST. Paul by 1000
and Minneapolis by 5000; that the four
fusion electors will win by $4,000; that
the five Cleveland electors have a fair
chance of winning; that Lawler will be
elected governor and that the legislature
will have a fusion majority of at least 10.

New YORK, November 4.-Edward s..
Stokes, the proprietor of the Hoffman
House, had virtuous attack last night,
and ordered the Democratic book akefs
who have been making Mr.. Stokes's bar
room headquarters for making their
bets on Cleveland. to get out OF there.
Mr.. Stokes said that they were running
the repution of his big hotel. This is
something new for the manager of this
hotel to do. Four years ago he took
the lead in the betting on Cleveland, and
invited all the gamblers of the country
there by the fact that he then raised no
objection to their using his barroom
as a place in which to cry their odds on
Cleveland. The sudden assumption OF
virtue last night came, however, at a
time when the Democrats had to stir
themselves exceedingly to get money to
cover that of the Republicans who Of
fered to bet on the election of Harrison
and Reid. The order from Mr.. Stokes
came at time when several RepuDll-
cans with money to bet went into the
barroom to ''call down. the buffers
whom Chairman Harrity, of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, had sent out
AS it was, the Republicans covered ev-
cry offer that was made by Democrats.
All this money on the general result was
put up without odds, except one bet OF
$4,000 to $4,000, which was made by
John Mahoney. Tammany bookmaker.
He made the offer in the Hoffman House
barroom, and it was taken up in min
ute by George Wheeloek.

This is the season of the yeas when people
take cold easily.
A cold is not the simple thing most people
imagine. 1t is serious matter.
A cold is the forerunner of an enfeebled
condition which may result in a severe ILL
aess, if not death.
Why do people take cold? Because the
,ystem is weakened; because of loss Of
tone, of health.
Derangement of the stomach and bowels,
weakness of heart and lungs, dizziness and
similar troubles, = these conditions favor
taking cold, and pave the way for serious
ills.
The way to avoid taking cold is to keep
well. If you are perfectly well it is simply
impossible to take cold or to contract conta-
gious diseases.
There is one safe way to avoid colds and
to preserve health, and that is, to take HID
DEN's MAGNETIC COMPOUND.
When you detect the first symptoms of
cold, such as sneezing, dull pressure about
the brain, feeling of weakness, of lassi-
tude, you will find this remedy the perfect
panacea.
1t quickly tones up the stomach and
bowels, regulates the action of the heart,
frees the lungs of poisonous deposits, clears
the brain, gently stimulates the nervous
system-in other words, restores the patient
TO full and perfect health. =
HIDDEN's MAGNETIC COMPOUND should
always be kept in the house. It is invalu-
able at this season of the year.
All druggists sell it. Price, $I per bottle.
The genuine is never sold for less. If you

NEW YORK, November 4.-On the
strength of late reliable advices from
West Virginia and Connecticut the Re-
publican statisticians have taken those
states from the doubtful column and
transferred them to the column labeled
"surely Republican" Chairman Carter
says the claim is entirely warranted by
the large Republican gains being made
in those states. New Jersey is slowly
but surely drifting away from her Demo
cratic moorings and it is not believed
that even the personal appeal of Candi-
date Cleveland will avail to check the
tide. The state is still classed as doubt
full, however, at Republican headquar-
