A Grand Success.

one Of the principal features Of
attraction at our late fair were the
meals spread before the hungry crowd
by the ladies Of the p. NJ. Church.
Such meal for 25 cents was beyond
any experience or expectation. Clean
illness, variety Of provisions, and
abundance marked the entire course
Of meals; and the quickpess Of serv-
ing the good things was most comend-
able. 1t was a grand success, and we
are exceedingly pleased to learn that
the ladies did as well financially, as
they did in the other regard.

statement OF the dirtiest eAbal Of political
pirates that ever held sway on the Pacific
coast. This gang, headed by Hunt and
his organ, has managed Affairs so long
without regard to right, justice or the in
terests Of the people, that it has almost
brought about dissolution Of the repnb-
licRn party. Honest republicans could
no longer submit, and proved their ale
glance to the firAt principles by tuning
them down at the last city election.
Since then the MachiaveliaBs have been
using every artiice to regain control, and
now the old slogans Of national cleo
tIon," and "save the state from the en-
emy," are being sounded TO keep voters
in the ranks.

Perfectly ForneG women ar. rare,

The French sculptor, Louis Xavier,
now visiting America, had something 10
say about the human form that may be
interesting: "It is easy to get a. almost
perfect model. Perfectly formed women
are by no means rare, with this s1cep-
tion-the feet. A beautiful bare foot is
almost unknown. We have to thank the
fashionable boot for this. When women
learn that q small foot out Of proportion
TO the body and much smaller than the
hand is q deiormity q new era Of sense
may begin, and 3 foot Greek 10 contour
with rosy nails be aS common as a beau
tiiul arm or throat" When will that
day be? Not until it is fashionable to
walk barefoot, l iancyl

card reads:
NsTRccrIoNs TO VOTERS.
The so-called Australian ballot system
has worked such q complete change In
the previous methods Of voting that per-
son who has only voted under the old
system must forget the rules by which he
was formerly governed in voting.
Under the old system the voter had q
ticket prepared by the political party to
which he belonged. II he wished to vote
for every candidate on II he simply de-
posted the ticket in the ballot box with
out making q mark on it. If, on the 9TH
eT hand, he wished to vote for some per-
son whose name appeared on another
ticket, he was required to run line
through the name Of the person on his
own ticket for whom he did not wish to
vote and 10 write the name Of the person
for whom he wished to vote In the place
Of the one scratched.
All this is dopO away with by the new
system. The voter is now presented by
the officers OF the election with a ballot
on which are arranged In columns the
candidates Of all the different parties.
The law allows him to indicate his
choice in but one way. He must not
scratch, tear or otherwise mutilate his
ballot. He must simply put an X in
pencil or ink before or after the name Of
each person for whom he desires to vote.
Use no other mark. An X is the mark
prescribed by law, aud 1t is doubtful If
any ether mark can be used. The courts
Of several states have held that only the
mark prescribed by Law can be used.
An impression seems to exist that vo-
ter who desires to vote for every candl-
date on the democratic ticket can do so
by simply placing an X opposite the
words Democratic Ticket" This Is a
great mistake; voter who thus marks
bis ballot might Just as well have re-
mained at home. since he cast but a
blank ballot. An X must be placed after
the name Of each and every candidate for
whom 4 voter desires to vote. TIE only
exception to this rule is in the case Of
presidential electors. Ia that case vote
