white or black compartment. For.
merly the voters made use of written
tickets or ballots. The present
arrangement was contrived To protect
the rights of the illiterste voter; but
it Is case of lover protection" and
plainly lends itself to the purpose of
fraud and undue influenced might
say, to intimidation. For certainly,
in the remotsr regions of CephaloDia
and Thessaly and the Peloponesus,
the churches in which the voting
takes place election day is always
fixed for Sunday do not present that
peaceful and even funeral aspect
which the sanctity Of the place de.
mands, and with which the Austria
liam system familiarizes US at home.
Notwithstanding the presence of
soldiers to keep the peace, series af-
trays and accidents are frequent:
four such cases occurred In Athens on
the 18th. and the list of assaults and
wounds in the provinces 10 proper
tionately larger. Such q record 10 not
worthy of the civilization, which, In
various direction, the kingdom may
justly claim. Moreover the extraor-
binary provision which requires the
voter to cast ballot, or ball, in all
the boxes-that lie to say, not only in
favor of the candidates whom he
chooses, but also against those whom
he rejects-leDds itself to trickey COM
binations and intrigues. 1t Is at the
same time exceedingly clumsy. On
the present occasion, for instance, the
voter In Utica was obliged to distri-
butte thirty balls in as many urns. 1t
would certainly be an edu-
cation in honest politics If the
nation could see its way to adopting
some modification of the Australian
ballot.

SUPPOSED ELOPEMENT.

County Assessor Huth's Daughter
Absents Herself From Home.
Day before yesterday Miss Emalia
Huth left home shortly after an early
breakfast, and alter all the house
work was accomplished, and has not
since been seen or heard of by her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Louis HUH,
although diligent inquiry has since
been made and her father took a trip
to Houston In the hope of finding her
there. he returned this morning un-
successful. The reason OF his going
to Houston is that he suspects
she has eloped with young
tailor formerly of San Antonio,
named Gus Ransom, as once before,
one month ago, she made an uusuc.
cessful attempt to elope with him.
She left home Wednesday morning,
saying she was going with Miss Clara
Highlander to a picnic.
Mr.. HUH Gays Ransom never pre-
sented himself as q suffer for her
hand, he does not know him or his
antecedents and the honorable way
would be for him to have pre-
sented himself as a sutton. The girl
is child of sixteen, pretty
blonde, and quite thoroughly
accomplished. Ransom Is q tailor o.
small means, who remained in Sar
Antonio about one year and then
went to Houston. Mr.: Huth says he
thIHks the young lady did not e
direct to Houston, but that she is yet
in the city, concealed somewhere.

RECORD OF THE CITY OF PARIS.

The splendid run made by the City OF
Paris will incite her rivals to fresh efforts
to bear the palm OF victory. Year by
year the transatlantic passage grows
shorter and shorter, but unless there is
some complete revolution in shipbuilding
or in the character OF the motive power
employed to propel vessels through the
water the end OF record breaking is now
In sight.
1t must not be forgotten that the loco
motive had attained as high a maximum
OF speed before 1850 as it has since
reached. The Great Western express train
in England on sevenf foot gauge had an
average running time of over fifty miles
an hour long before 1860.

Matching Teeth,

Perhaps the greatest difficulty that
dentists meet with Is the matching of
false teeth with the natural teeth of their
customers. Tho tooth factories supply
dentists with rings upon which are strung
thin short metal bars, each carrying a
tooth at its extremity. There are twen-
ty-five OF these sample teeth that run all
the way from nearly white to shade

twenty-five usually almost matches the
patients natural teeth, and. at any rate.

BESTOWAl OF FRANCHISES.

The Importance OF the struggle in pro-
gress in this State over the question Of
the bestowal OF valuable franchises upon
corporations without receiving any equiv
alent therefor, will escape no one. 1t is
high time that this matter should be set
tied once for all. A franchise is worth a
great deal, and city should be compen-
