The Unique Prayer OF u Colo"ed Convict In

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 14.-There was
CONSERVATION, followed by an uproar,
in the little chapel at the penitentiary
Sunday morning, when old Nose Allen,
q colored, one-legged prisoner, from
South Carolina, arose to pray. The
prayer-meeting was opened in the usual
way by Chaplain Dudley, and sew.
eral of the convicts followed with
brief words of prayer, and it was while
all heads were bowed in reverence, and
all hearts turned to higher things, that
old Nose grasped his opportunity to
speak a good word in anticipation of
Thanksgiving. This is the way he
did it:
Dear, beloved brudderin and sistern,
tank de Lord permittin me to kun ter

Rev. J. X. MoTctt Killed by J. @. Clarke
"a LAWYER.

~ Lawyer.
RICHMOND, Va, Nov. IA terrible
shadow has been cast over the annual
session of the Baptist general assembly
of Virginia, now in session at Danville,
by the shooting and death of one Of its
members in that city. Rev. j. Il. Moffet
was one of the most prominent and
esteemed members of the Baptist clergy
in this state. He was the leader of the
prohibition party in Virginia and the
editor of newspaper in Danville
known as Anti-Liquor. DR.. Moffet
made most aggressive prohibition
canvass, and was severe in his structures
upon many Of the leaders of the three
other parties in the campaign.
On Tuesday, the day of the election,
Mr. ]. G. Clarke, lawyer of Danville
and prominent Democrat, discovered
that bogus electoral ticket was being
circulated among the voters. He met
Dr. Moffett and accused him of the
authorship of these tickets DIR. Moffett
denied in vigorous terms that such was
the fact, and an alteration took place.
Blows were exchanged, but the parties
were separated without any injury to
either On Friday succeeding the elec.
tion DIR. Moffetts paper, Anti-Liquor,
contained severe denunciations of
Clarke.
He was called "blaclSguard," a
''whiskyite" and sundry other disrep-
utable epithets were applied to him.
Soon after the appearance of the paper
DR.. Moffett, while on his way to
the baptist convention, was met
on the street by DR.. Clarke.
There was another alteration. Mr..
Clarke resented in an excited
manner the insults of Anti-Liquor IT
was about o'clock in the evening.
Lawyer and preacher came together,
and before the usual crowd to n fight
could assemble two pistol shots rang
out upon the air. The people came
focliing to the scene. Mr.. Moffett
was shot through the abdomen, and
Clarke was wounded in the wrist. Mof-
fett fingered until Sunday morning,
when he died, and Clarke is il Jail, bail
being refused.

VOTE MAY BE DIVIDED.
ohio's Electoral Vote is Very Much Mud
died Up.

COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 12-The mathe-
maticians are still at work at both the
republican and democratic state head.
quarters, but they had not altered any.
thing up to Friday afternoon. The re.
publicans claim the state by 1000 or
1000, and the democrats by 900 or / 900.
But three official returns have been re-
.ceived by Secretary of State Poorman,
these from Knox, Fairfield and Marion
counties. They show peculiar state
of affairs.
In those three counties Lorenzo Dan
ford, republican elector at large, runs
ahead of the ticket by 95 votes, and w.
A. Seward, the democratic elector at
large, runs ahead of his ticket by 113
votes. This was caused by men mark
ing only the names of those gen.
tlemen under mistaken notion that
they were thereby voting the straight
tickets. At Republican headquarters
much of the calculations have been
based on the highest vote cast for elec-
tor, ana it is now apparent that that
basis is not a good one. 1t is by no
means certain that Ohio has gone re-
publican, and it is doubtful whether S.
M. Taylor is elected.

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Republicans aud Fusionists.

Democratic Majority In the House Placed
at 1OO-Tho silver States Split Even on
Republicans aud Fusionists.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-An analysis
of the congressional election returns
show that with returns missing from
twenty districts in which the result is
either entirely unknown or is very
close, the democrats have elected to
seats in the house of representatives for
the fifty-third congress, eighty-eight
more representatives than the repubH-
cans. This majority does not include
nine members-elect who are classified
as either fusionists or Third party men,
nearly every one of whom will act with
the democrats in any proposed reduc-
ton of tariff taxes. Their support, with
the additional strength the democrats
are certain to derive from securing
some of the twenty districts put in the
unknown column, makes it conserva-
tive to estimate that the democrats will
have a majority of one hundred mem
bers or more on the most important
question likely to come before the next
house of representatives Wis, a revision
of the Mckinley tariff law A number
of the fusionists are also thoroughly in
accord with the democratic policy, as
far as it goes, on all other questions
An analysis by section of the vote
Tuesday for congressman shows that
the southern states, Maryland, Missouri
and Kentucky, being included in the
category, will send III democrats, only
only four rerriblicans and one Alliance
democrat, McLaurin, of South Carolina,
to the next house, with four districts.
two in West Virginia and one
each in Kentucky and Missouri,
in doubt. OF the four Repub-
licnn congressman returned two come
from Tennessee and one each from
Kentucky and Missouri. The only APP
parent result of the fight made against
the democrats in the south was to
strengthen its hold on public affairs. In
North Carolina, Cheatham, the colored
republican, is defeated, after surviving
the landslide of two years ago, and in
Alabama solid democratic delegation
is returned Notwithstanding the eff
forts of Mr.. Magee and others to split
it.
Of New England's twenty-seven votes
in the next house the republicans get
eighteen and the democrats six.
The states of the northwest and agri-
cultural west, beyond the Mississippi
river, will send 90 republicans, IA demo-
Gratis and fusionists to represent them
in the next house, with two districts from
Nebraska in doubt, and the entire
seven from Minnesota placedin in the same
column, for lack of information as to
the successful candidates.
The Pacific coast is entitled to eleven
congressman. Washington and Oregon
each will send two republicans, and
California will send four democrats,
and perhaps more, three districts being
close between the two old parties.
The following is a table by states:

Texas Results.

GALVESTON, Tex, Nov 12-Fuller re-
turns from the state confirm the election
of Hogg by $4,000 to $1,000 plurality.
The next legislature, both house and
senate, will be overwhelmingly demo
cratic. The populist will have less than
a half dozen senators out of thirty-one,
and less than twenty of total of 12s in
the house. There will be two or three
republicans in the lower house, but
none in the upper.
