Republican Predictions for All States Ex-

Republican Predictions for All States Ex-
cept Connecticut.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
BosroS, Nov. This morning the leaders of
both parties in Massachusetts are claiming that
the state will cast at least 1000 more votes
than ever before. In 1888 the vote for Harri-
1873 1872. for Cleveland ISL, s55, a total Of
335. 747. This was an increase of about
5000 votes over 1884, Of which the re-
publicans gained 81 900 and the democrats
-. 600. Today Chairman Draper Of the Mas
sachusetts republican committee claims that
Harrison will poll 200. 900 votes The republi-
can estimate of Clevelsnd's strength is from
l75. 900 to $50. 900 votes. Mai. ]. Henry Gould
president Of the Massachusetts, League Of Re-
publican Clubs, says Harrison will have plu-
rality Of p. 900. Republicans concede to Rus
sell from 5. 900 to 10 900 more votes than Cleve-
land. and insist that he will certainly not get
more.
DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS.
Today's estimate Of Col Coveney, chairman
Of the Massachusetts democratic campaign COM
mittee, is that the winning candidate in Massa-
chusetts must poll 900 votes and that Rus
sell is sure Of that number. This is the general
democratic estimate Of Harrisons strength
also. with Cleveland some 5000 to 10, 900 votes
behind. Winslow Warren. the leader Of the in
dependents, claims Russell as safe and says five
democratic Congressman out OF thirteen will be
returned. Republican claims on Congressman
range from nine to eleven.
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
In New Hampshire, Chairman Jewett Of the
republican state committee unhesitatingly
claims the state for Harrison and the election
Of Smith governor either by the people or
the legislature. Harrison had 20, 900 plurality
in 1888 and Blaine 1000 in 1884. Mr. Jewett is
not certain of either Gen. Baker or ex-senator
Blair for Congress, but hopes for both.
Secretary Jackson, of the democratic state
committee. does not care to say much about
Clevcland's chances, but hopes Tor Mckinney
for governor. He is confident Of two Congress
men, Parker and Stone. The fsvorite betting
| combinations in Concord today are the republi-
can candidate for governor and the two demo-
cratic Congressman. or one democrat and one
republican Congressman
RHODE ISLAND.
Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island feels that
his state is safe for Harrison. Some repubi-
cans think the vote may reach nearly SO, 000, and
IL so. say Harrison will have 5000 plurality.
Both Congressman Lapham and Page, on the
democratic side. expect to defeat their oppo-
nents. Bull and Cspron, and have not yet waived
all claim to the state for Cleveland. Harrisons
plurality in 1888 was 500.
MAINE.
IN Maine the republican plurality in Septem-
Der was II, 4l2, and the state is considered good
for Is 600 republican majority tomorrow, 10, 900
less than in lsss.
In Vermont Gov. Fullers unexpected small
majority Of 500 in September will be In
creased for Harrison, though IL will fall short
Of the a 900 plurality given the President in
1855.

Democrats In South Dakota Urged to Vote
the Third Ticket.
YANKToN, S. D., Nov. 7.-Tremendous excite

upon the announcement that the democratic
state central committee had passed the follow
ing resolutions addressed to the democratic
voters of South Dakota:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF the demo-
cratic state committee that the democratic
voters OF South Dakota cast their votes for

tee requests the hearty cooperation Of every
democrat in this state to accomplish this; and

South Dakota should stand Loyalty by their
congressional and state tickets, and thereby
materially advance their party's permanent
welfare in this state.

feat of the Harrison electors in South Dakota

WASHINGTON,
The Chances Slightly in Favor of the Re
publicans Carrying the State.

PuDf'cdHs N"fryIHS tHe StHte'
SEATTLE, WASH. Nov. 7.-Democrats. repub-
licans and populists are equally sanguine of
carrying Washington on the presidential ticket,
but the chances are slightly in favor of the re-
rabhcans. There are s., 900 votes to be cast and
probably $4,000 will be polled. The prohibition
lists add to the uncertainty created by the
peoples party with regard to the general re-
suit but neither really stand any chance.
While the prohibitionists claim 10. 900 votes
they will fall short of it. The populists, again.
claim over 20, 900. but will do exceedingly well
if they get one-half of that If populists and pro-
hibitionists cut into republicans more than
democrats as claimed. in state issues. the proba-
bilities are in favor of Snivcly, democrat being
elected governor; otherwise McGraw, republic
can. will be elected. As to the national result,

Animals Lack OF Sc se,

Some animals exhibit queer lack Of
sense, says man who has observed
them. Put a buzzard in pen about six
feet square, aud it il as much q prisoner
as though 1t were saut up in box. This
is because buzzar,ls always begin their
flight by taking a short run, and they
either can not or will not attempt to fly
unless they can do SO. Again, take a
common humble bee and put it into q
goblet. 1t will remain prisoner for
hours, trying to escape through the sides,
without even thinking OF escaping from
the top. SO also bat can not rise from
a perfectly level surface. Although it is
remarkably nimble in its flight when
once on the wing, and can fly for many
hours at time without taking the least
rest, If placed on the floor or on fat
ground it is absolutely unable to use its
wings. The only thing it can do is to
shuttle helplessly and painfully along un.
til it reaches some trifing elevation,
from which it can throw itself into the
air, when at once it is off like flash.

wor,; was unbroken. at the opening Of
school each morning the flag was raised,
the entire school joining in salute. At
the close of the days work it was low
cred from its lofty position and given
into the keeping Of its stanch defender.
Then occurred an incident which proved
the determined little teacher equal to
the emergency.
1t was Friday afternoon and the
school work for the week was about
over. One of the boys was listlessly
erasing the written exercises from the
blackboard, when, ch&ucing to glance
through the window, lie saw something
which at once made him all attention.
Two men, whom he recognized as Pete
johnson and Jack Welsh, were entering
the schoolyard. They were both noto.
rious characters and had been arrested
some months before charged with hav-
ing set fire to barn. There was not
sufficient evidence upon which to hold
them and the sheriff had reluctantly re
leased them.
They entered the schoolyard with a
swagger, johnson carrying in his hand

through the boys mind. In an instant
he was at Miss Fenton's desk. Breath
lessly he told her what he had seen. The
color left the teachers face as she lis
tened, for johnson and Welsh were well
known rs reckless and lawless men.
For moment she felt unable to carry
out the resolution she had formed that
the flag should not be disturbed. But
1t was only Tor moment. Quickly leav-
ing her chair she stepped to her closet
and brought forth the rife which she
had provided for the emergency she
must now face. An instant later she
passed through the door. closely fol-
lowed by the boy who had espied the
men. The other pupils remained in their
seats, scarcely conscious of what was
passing.

The rlAo AT coLUMalA CORNERS.


The school committee had engaged
Helen Fenton to teach for the fall and
winter terms at Columbia Corners with
some misgivings. 1--WE ought to have
IA teacher with more determination
energy" suggested Chairman Ross,
. he committee. Miss Fenton took
D.. excellent examination, but she's such
!. mild little body I'm afraid some of the
toughs up there will be too much for
her." Mr.. Williams, of the committee,
to whom these remarks were addressed,
chuckled quietly and finally drawled
out: "Well, you remember JoAh Billings
says, You can't always tell how far a
toad'll jump by looking at him. Per-
haps she's got more sand than You think
for. Anyway she's engaged, and there
amt no use in being sorry about 1t now.
Perhaps she'll turn out all right"
Miss Fenton's manner certainly did
seem placid. She was scarcely twenty
years old, and trifle below the average
in height. But if her face did not indi-
cate it she was nevertheless person Of
unusual spirit and determination. In
less than fortnight after her introduce
tion into the school she had instituted
several reforms, disciplined the unruly
spirits and placed her school on good
working basis.
In the belief that her pupils would do
better work and would be more tracta-
BILE If they could all be brought to-
gether and become interested in CON-
mon cause. she conceived the idea Of
inviting their cooperation in an effort to
procure a flag for the school. Into this
project all the boys and girls entered
with great enthusiasm. They went to
work earnestly to find ninety persons
who would become shareholders in the
flag. The curious little Certificates of
stock" which We're prepared by Miss
Fenton with painstaking care, sold
readily. After few days canvass the
ninetie'h investor had exchanged his
dime for the last certificate, of which
the following is an exact copy:
