CARLISLE RESIGNS HIS SEAT.

n Strong Fight VIII be Made for tho
Honor of Succeeding Him.
FRANKFORT, Ky, Jan. 2l.-The long
expected and anxiously awaited resigna.
ton of Senator Carlisle reached Gov
ernor Brown yesterday morning. It Is
characteristic of the man whose name ia
signed to it. Here is the document in
full:

DEAR Sir: I hereby resign the Office q, senator

governor sent Mr.. Carlisles letter to tho
senate with merely o few words an.

it was decided to merely spread IT on

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-The certii-
Gates of all the States OF the votes cast
LOT President and Vice President ought
TO be in the hands>of the President os
the Senate by Monday next. AS
matter OF fact fourteen States have
1alled SO far TO comply with the law by
sending on their electoral certificates
oy messengers and many of these States
which have complied with the law have
done so in so slip-shop a manner that if
the late election had been, in any ways
close tho official ascertainment of the
result under the constitution, and laws
might have been made almost impossible
and the whole Government might have
been thrown into chaos.
One OF the first things, to, be noted ia
that many OF the messengers purporting
come utterly unprovided with creden-
tials. Kansas was one OF the most con-
splcuous offenders in this respect The
eminent Populist delegated to bring ON
the vote of tho bleeding State was nre-
sented to the President Of the Senate
by Senator PETER, Congressman Iere
Simpson and one OF his colleagues who
vouched for him, but their voucher, in
the ABSENCE OF tho slightest scrap of
writing from the electoral college, was
not the kind OF voucher that the Treas
ury department. required in order to
give him his mileage and per diem for
bringing on tho vote. AS Senator PETER
hnally and sorrowfully said: Tho only
thing loft for us is to pay his way back
TO Kansas ourselves and trust to tho
State to reimburse u.s."
Ihis Is not tAe only case OF the kind.
Many OF the packages brought by the
messengers have had nothing on the
outside to indicate their contents Two
States sent their votes to the president
OF tho United States" instead OF to the
president of the Senate" and Idaho
sent her vote to the Secretary of State.
1t Is marvel Of good luck that none OF
these packages were torn open and thus
rendered invalid. Many OF the states
have failed to indorse on tho package
what 1T contained. Some messengers
have been able to say that there was q
sealed and Endorsed package inside the
outer envelope. In that case the Presi-
dent OF the Senate has opened the outer
casing and found the duly, certified
package inside.
In other cases the messengers have
said they did not believe there was any
sealed inner package and in those in
stances the envelopes have been put in
the Senate safe and left untouched.
Ihey may contain the electoral vote or
they may not. Tue President of the
Senate has only the word of the mes
sengers to assure him that these peck-
ages actually contain the votes of the
States as represented. Some one might
have changed packages on them.

ladies; also another family ar the
stockyard, and two families living in
the West End, who were in very pitt
full state. All OF these families were
furnished with fuel, food and clothing
by the Circle OF Charity. The secretary
OF the circle wishes to state that they
have received such liberal donations
from the gentlemen of the city, and
with the moneJ furnished by THE TIMES,
wards the support Of the Home for the
Sick"
There is one helper THE TIMES does
not wish to forget. for he was general
factotum to the ladies from the first.
He was at their call during the day,
driving them hither and thither with a
marvellous amount of good nature, and
he was Mr.. G. c. Taliaferro, who has
studied the poor Of Roanoke with
view to finding out the worthy cases,
and he is always in the front rank when
help is needed for the suffering.
Late in the evening the reporter
called upon Mrs. Mitchell, who is inter-
ested In the cause Of benevolence in
East Roanoke where there is consider
able suffering. She spoke of two cases
which had come under her immediate
notice.
One was that of woman, with four
children, in absolute need. The husband
was reformed drunkard, but was un-
able to get work Of any description.
She described their position as little
short Of heartrending. The other family
was in much worse condition, an un-
supported wife and tiny children and
confirmed drunkard, who could not shake
Off tho demon drink. Mrs. Mitchell
said that shey were taking care of them
to the best OF their ability. but that
they were in need Of clothes and gro.
ceries. Both of these cases are of thor
oughlY respectable women.
Another distressing case mentioned
to the reporter was that Of an engineer
who lived near the Mineral Wool Com
pany. The husband had broken his
leg and tho wife was now very sick.
The wife is said to be very good man
ager, but owing to circumstances they
are in very INDECENT circumstances.
The TIMES takes the liberty of pub
fishing the following letter:

Dartmouth College Notes.

The Inauguration of President Tucker
will occur on Wednesday morning of COM
mencement week at half-past ten.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed among
the students over the appointment of e. III.
Carleton, Bowdoin '93, to the chair of
physical culture. Mr.. Carleton was con-
testant in the games at Worcester against
Dartmouth's victorious team and proved
conclusively that he is not an athlete. Adj
ding to this the fact that he has had no
previous experience i'll the work which he is
to undertake, it does not seem strange that
there is a protest against this unknown and
untried youngster, as The Dartmouth aptly
characterizes him.
On Wednesday, May "a, Dartmouth added
another to the long list of championships
which she has won. On that date, athletes
from nine New England colleges met on
Worcester oval and competed in the most
remarkable contest in the history of the as
ISOLATION. All the spring Dartmouth had
worked and said nothing, so for several
weeks before the meet nearly all the New
England papers conceded first place to Am
herst, second TO Brown, and fight between
Williams, Wesleyan and Dartmouth for
third place. A surprise was in store for
these prophets, however, for Dartmouth
took the lead early in the games and held il
to the end, her final score being 40 points
Amherst was second with 24l points, and
Brown third with 80 points Bowdoin and
U, V. NJ were the only colleges in the asso-
citation which failed to score.
The following from the records of the
meeting of the trustees OF Dartmouth Col
lege held May I, 1898, is self-eXplanatory
"With view to the encouragement of stu
dents, and particularly for the promotion OF

Obituary.

JosLIN.-- The death of the venerable
Stephen p. Joslin of Waitstield at the adj
vanced age of nearly eighty five years has
already been announced, but it seems to Inc
that the passing away of man that lived
so long in one locality, was so good farmer
and filed so large a space in the affairs of
the town in which he spent his whole life
is entitled TO something more than pass
ing notice. Permit one who knew Mr.. JOS
lin for nearly sixty years to offer trib-
ute of respect to his memory. He was born
in Newport, N H., nearly eighty-five years
ago. His father, who was a physician,
moved into Waitstield when the son was
about two years old, and entered at once
upon the practice of his profession. Mr..
Joslin, the father, is remembered as good
physician and as belonging to that large
class of solid men who We're the early set
tiers of Waitsfeld. Perhaps no other town
in the state can boast of so many strong
minded representative men as were to be
found among the early fathers OF Waits
field. 1t was among such men that stephen
p. Joslin received his early training, so that
when he came upon the stage OF action he
seemed to belong to the age that preceded
him. Opportunities for schooling at that
day were limited. There was hard work to
be done on the farm, yet Mr.. Joslin pos
sessed a mind gifted to overcome obstacles,
and he managed to acquire good common
school education. Throughout his long life
he was distinguished for his correct habits,
firmness, decision of character and close
application to business. No one ever ques-
toned his integrity. His word was always
as good as his note. Judged by the stand
ards of to-day, it may seem that he possessed
a superabundance of that incorporating
and unyielding nature of the age in which
he was reared, Mr.. Joslin was well quail
flied for public business, and at times filled
the various town offices, but he always
Stunned rather than courted public office,
| But it is as a model farmer that | wish to
hold Mr.. Joslin up TO public view There
are few, if any, men in tbs state that have
made greater success of farming. Those
fertile fields, spacious buildings and their
beautiful surroundings tell of wide-awake,
progressive man. Other farmers having an
| income outside of the earnings of the
farm may have made greater showing, but
it was not Mr., Joslins bank stock that fer
| tilted his farm it was the profits OF his
farm that created his bank stock Mr.. JOS
lin died a wealthy farmer, and his wealth
was all acquired from the farm on which he
had lived tifty-siX years. Mr.. Joslin gorled
in his calling. He asked, while he lived
for no higher title than that of farmer, for
no nobler epitaph at his grave. The old
man is gone. He has plowed his last fur
row, he has reaped his last sheaf. Peace to
his ashes. -

Mckinley RenOminated.

A note of the political strife that will
stir this land in 1896 comes from Ohio.
The republicans of the great Buckeye
state met in convention at Columbus
on Thursday of last week, and in the
denomination of Mr.. Mckinley, the
great champion of protection, for gov
ernor threw down the gauntlet to de-
mocracy. The fight in Ohio will be re-
newed along the lines of the old ma
tional political contests, and the repub-
licans of Ohio in 1893 are but antici-
pating the alignment of political battle
in the next national canvass. In his
speech accepting the nomination Mr..
Mckinley, turning from state to ma
tional matters, said:
The national administration has done
nothing thus far except to create in the

statue workers, if working by the piece,
earn on an average from So to $40 per
day, and If by the day from 81 to So.
In speaking of the quarries it should have
been said that this company claim, and
probably without fear of successful contra
dction, that there is not another quarry in
the state where sheets of granite two hun
dred feet in length and six feet thick can be
quarried. Their entire plant is valued at
100000, their workmen are skilled, indus
trious, sober and contented, the manage
ment is all that could be desired, and when
the completeness of their equipment is taken
into account coupled with the superior
quality of the stone quarried, it is not to be
wondered that the Ryegate Granite Works
Company stand in the front rank among
like business enterprises in the state
The reporter desires to acknowledge the
courteses and attention shown him by
Messrs. Cochran, Farquharson, Mcdonald,
Mulliken and Murphy, without which much
of the material for this screed would not
have been obtainable

MALARIA. Malaria was formerly consd-
cred as a miasm, limited to the exhalations
engendered in low-lying lands; but modern
researches have shown that while the miasm
is more intense in such localities, yet it is
by no means confined to them, and that as a
fact but very few and narrow sections of
country are entirely free from malaria
cities, villages, towns and country all have
it in greater or slighter degree. Humphreys
