ELECTION SUMMARY.
THURSDAY, Nov. 10.

THURSDAY, Nov. 10.
Grover Cleveland has again been
chosen president of the United States by
majority of over 100 votes in the cleo
soral college. Returns received to Z a.
N. indicate that Mr. Cleveland will have
289 votea out Of total of 444, with
number still in doubt. In addition to
the Solid South the ex-president gets the
votes OF New York, Indiana, Illinois,
Wisconsin, West Virginia, New Jersey,
Connecticut and six out Of the fourteen
from Michigan. Democrats are also
claiming Ohio, which, from Late reports,
shows large Democratic gains. Repuh-
Ncans admit the vote is very close, but
claim small plurality for Harrison.
The Democratic plurality in New
York is placed at 10000, Indiana 7,00o,
Illinois 10000 and Wisconsin 10000,
while gains are made on the usual DEM
ocratic nlajorities in number Of South
ern states.
The Peoples party vote in many
states fell below expectations. How
ever, Weaver claims the states Of Col
orado, Nebraska end Nevada and will
have fifteen votes in the electoral COL
iege.
In the congressional elections returns
indicate small Republican gains, but
thu Democratic majority in the next
house will still be over 100. The COM
plexion Of the senate, however, cannot
yst be definitely stated.

ST. PAUL, Nov. 9.-Chairman Jami-
son, of the Republican state committee.
is confident that the Republican party
has elected Knute Nelson governor by q
large plurality about 20,00o-and also
the nine presidential electors by majori-
ties varying from 5000 to 10000. There
are indications that there has been q
large falling off in the Peoples party
vote, and the majority Of the slumping
vote has go1t. largely back to the Re
publican party. Chairman Jamison
said that the returns We're coming IN
slowly, but those which have been re-
ceived have given the committee every
reason to expect handsome plurality
for their candidate for governor. In
the southern part Of the state he has re-
ceived very large vote, and in the Al
lance districts in the northwestern part
of the state he has made big cut into
the Owen vote Of two years ago. The
committee feels certain Of the election

not given up the only doubtful dis

votes than Greeley would have had had

Cleveland and Stevenson will receive

any candidates have ever before had
The transfer Of Ohio to the Demo-
cratic column raises Cleveland's vote to
over 300 and reduces Harrison's to little
more than 100, The exact figures ac-
<ording to latest returns were: Cleve-
land, 303; Harrison, 100; Weaver, 80.
The latest reports indicate that the
next United States senate will be-
divided as follows: Democrats, ~; Re

Democrats
a claim is made to Nebraska by the
Republicans on the strength of the
Republican gains in the First district,
but the state has undoubtedly chosen

had time to study the result. It is a

does not conceal the chagrin he feels

majority to the house Of representatives

Speaking of the brain power of ami
mails" said H. E. Mart n. reminds me of
an incident l witnessed while living at St.
Joseph. A neighbor of mine had large
Newfoundland dog which did the market
ing for the family. His mistress would
give him basket, put in it a note and send
him to the grocer or butcher. On the day
in question he was carrying home fine
roast, and half dozen ours were trotting
at his side trying to get their noses into
basket He turned his head, first to one
side then to the other, growing fiercely,
but they were not to BE- thus intimidated.
Finally his patience gave way: he put the
basket down and sailed into the hungry
horde.
But while he gave battle to some the
others made off with the coveted prize.
When he realized that he had been de
spoiled he looked the very picture of de
spair. He sat down b. the empty basket
and howled like schOolboy that had lost
his circus ticket He took up the basket
and walked home at q snail's pace, put ii
down on the porch and fled under the
house, where he renal ned all day, despite
attempts to coax him ouU."-St. Louis

Effect of Fruit on the Stomach.

The maIic acid of ripe apples, either raw
or cooked, will neutralize any excess of
chalky matter engendered by eating too
much meat. 1t is also the fact that such
fresh fruits as the apple, the pear and the
plum when taken ripe and without sugar,
diminish acidity in the stomach rather
than provoke it. Their vegetable sauces
and juices are converted into alkaline car
