Though the times are hard. and
money has been exceedingly scarce
for the past ninety days The Provi-
dent Lite Assurance Society, with
Texas headquarters IN this city,
shows an increase of business over
last year of thirty per cent. This
wonderful increase in business ls

the liberal investments made by
this company in this state. Col.
Parrott, that prince among insur.
ance men, has organized the finest
corps of agents ever seen in this
state, who are busy morning, noon
and night, demonstrating the unri-
vailed advantages of their most ex.
cellent company.
Supplement all this with the state
ment that Col. Parrot is one of the
most libaral, and at the same time
most iadicious users of printers

the reason for it's greatly increased
business is readily perceived.
Col. Parrot is still pushing his
campaign Of education, and now
proposes to enlarge the scope
of his subject matter. AS Is

and potential part in securing the
necessary funds to build the Texas

IN BLEEDING KANSAS.
The Kangaroo Ballot Scared the Timid
Voters.

The Kangaroo Ballot Scared the Timid
Voters.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. 7.-The Australian
ballot system was used in Kansas today
for the first time, and though there was
some friction in localities where the law
was not thoroughly understood, the vote
is not nearly as large as in 1902, when
324,3S6 votes were least. In the first
place it is an off year; then it is esti-
mated that fully % per cent OF the
voters in the western part of the state
have emigrated on account Of the failure
OF crops, and besides there was a consid.
cradle exodus from all sections to the
Cherokee strip. Finally, many voters
through ignorance or timidity would
not venture into the booths under the
new law. BY common consent the vote
today is com pared with that of two years
ago, when the same county officers were
elected.

dDtte county, the most populous locality
In the state, the entire Republican

the state not more than half the regis.
tered vote was polled; on account OF

Topeka, Kan, Nov. The Capitol's
dispatches, up to 2 O'Clock, from all
parts of Kansas, show Republican
gains. Twenty-ssven couhtles heard
from are ali Republican, including the
most populoue counties OF the state,
many of which were Populiet in tle
past two year,. IL looks like a clean
sweep OF the state for the Republicans.

Republicans Carry the State by About
$4,000 Plurality.
DEs MONIES, Nov. THE Republican
committee, basing its claim on gains
made in precincts comprising one-tenth
of the state, claims the state by 35 600.
Chairman Fuller, of the Democratic
state central committee, comedies the
Republicans have carried the state by
probably 10000. The Populist vote 30
far shows no gain over last year, while
the Prohibition vote almost doubled.
DEs MONIES, Nov. THE election
in Iowa will 60 down as a Republican
landslide. The gains have been steady
all night and the average ie still about
six to a precinct. The returns from
more than one-fourth of the state are now
in and the ratio OF increase can
hardly De materially changed.
Returns as to the Prohibition
and Populist votes are scattering,
not enough to base good estimate on.
The Prohibitionists will probably not
poll over $4,000, doubling their vote OF
last year, and the Populists 26 600,
showing only q gain OF 5000. Chairman
Blythe of the Republican state central
committee claims the election of the
whole Republican ticket by upwards of
10000. Chairman Fullen of the
Democratic committee, comedies tho cleo
tion to the Republicans by probably
20, 600. In the legislative districts the
Republicans made many gains and are
now certain of working majorities in
both houses, assuring Republican sue
cessor to United States Senator Wilson.

CAMDEN, N. j., Nov. THE city to.

precincts. Democratic policemen and
ward workers took possession oil
many OF the polls. and the Republi-
cans appealed to Sheriff West to place
the military at the polls. Many deputy
sheriffs were stopped on the street and
had their weapons taken from
them. A number were beaten,
shot and cut. The following
were admitted to the hospital !:

outside of the city, OF course, is Repub-
lican. The judicial ticket heretofore has
been on bipartisan basis, but this
year the Democrats broke away and
nominated a ticket of their own
and the Republicans seem to have elected
every judicial candidate. The great
fight has been over the election OF Judge
Gary, who presided at the trial OF the
anarchists. At the time Governor Alt
geld psrdoned the anarchists he made q
severe attack upon Gary, and the fight
has been bitter against the state ma
chine, with the result that Gary seems
not only to have polled the full Rspubli-
can strength, bat to have drawn on the
Democratic vote as we'll. The general
result shows decisive Republican gains
over the presidential election of year
ago.

The only facts obtainable are that the

her near the second gangwsy. The Al.
bany hoated for about half hour, and
the crew went on board the Philadel-
phia, which also went down half an
hour later. Both crews, numbering

boat containing the captains and mates
OF both steamers reached Point aux
Barques. The other boat, containing
"a sailors, was lost. There is no sea
running, and how the boat capsized
does not appear. Sixteen sailors from
the Philadelphia and eight from the
Albany were lost.
The Albany was bound from Chicago
to Buffalo, and the Philadelphia from
Buffalo to Duluth. The Albany was
worth 100000 and is believed to be
partially insured. The Philadelphia

his hackers and they set upon the watch
ers using them very roughly, finally ar
resting some of them. Rev. Kent
