GEORGIA RETURNS.
The Democratic Majority Greatly Re- duced-Division in the Ranks
 Given as the Reason.

ATLANTA Oct. 4-The Constitution this morning publishes returns from all of the 137 counties in Georgia, made from unofi- cial estimates compileI by the correspond ents in every county, and most of them re- ceived after midnight last night. The un- official returns indicated that the state had gone democratic by 0,Oj0 majority. but the official county consultations which took place at l2 o'clock today, show that thi figure has been reduced. The official democratic majority will not vary much from 70, GOO and this is the figure which is now accepted by conserya i've estimates on the democratic side.
 The popuists on the other hand claim that the country counties, the consolida tions from which will be the last to be heard from, will reduce this majority to at least 10 ,000.
 Of the 175 members of the house elected about sixty are populists, and of the forty four memb of the senate there are seven populists and one republican. Several of the strongest democratic counties in the state have been carried by the populists, and with but few exceptions every county in the state shows popullsG gains.
 Speaker Crisp's district gives the largest democratic majority of any district in the state. He figured conspicuously in the campaign, strongly advocating tariff re- form and the free coinage of silver.
 An organized move ment against a return to silver coinage without foreign consent was started early in the campaign, Secre tary Smith, Congress man Turner and oth CTS vigorously defendng the policy of the administration on the stump. The debate on the silver question grew so warm as to frequently put democratic speakers in the attitude of making joint discussion against each other on this issue. Speaker Crisp and Secretary smith spoke in Atlanta together few week ago, one defending free silver and tue other antaeonizing it. The populists took full advantage of the division and the result has been great slump in democratic majorities throughout the stafe

POOLING STERN PAPA.
The Unrelenting Parent tUnconsciously Act ing as Cupids Missive Bearer.

The Unrelenting Parent Unconsciously Act
 ing as Cupid's Missive Bearer.
 There is business man of this city who has a very pretty daughter with whom ono of papa's office staff has fallen hope lessly in love. As the young man is not invited to the paternal mansion and the young woman has been notified to keep away from the paternal office, the course of their love does not flow very smoothly However they have hit upon an expedicnt which gives them a channel of communi- cation, and they will continue to employ 1t if papa's eyes do not rest on this expose It was the girl who thought of it-it al ways is the girl who finds clew to the situation.
 5, It is this way: When papa enters the office in the morning, he hangs his hat on certain nail among a row of other hats and proceeds to business. Then the inter ested clerk, while the head of the firm is reading his morning mail, takes the hat from the nail where it Is hung, looks in- side, slips his hand under the lining and takes out a tiny missive, which he at once conveys to his own pocket, and the con tents of which delight and amuse him all day.
 At night when papa returns home his pretty daughter slips into the hall and makes a raid on that hat, always finding there an answer to her missive of the morning. How much longer papa will occupy the position of Cupid s mali carrier remains to be seen. He will be madder than natter when he finds it out.-De- troit Free Press.

A REVOLVING CRIME

 FATHER IMPLICATED.

FATHER IMPLICATED.
 RALEIGH, N. c., Oct. 4.-George Mills, who has been on trial here for his life the past three days for the seduction and mur- der of his niece, on,essed the crime this evening. He was sent to the grand jury room as @ witness against Jack Wimberly, the father of the murdered girl, aud it was in this jury room that he made the con- fessiop.
 He told story full nf the most horrible and revo ting details. How, at the instance of the girls father, Jack Wimberly, who
 had said to him, ''Pake Iaua away and
 never bring her back here alive.'' He in-
 duced her to accompany him to neighbour ing house. On the way was an old, unoc- cupied house. Into this house he took her 1, aud told her to lake the contents of bottle he handed her and it would produce an abortion, the girl having been betrayed, 1, and being then pregnant. "The drug,o say Mills, twas laudanum, which Wlin-
 berly had obtained for the purpose. The poor girl drank the drug but it did not have the desired effect.'
 Mills then, so he says, struck her seven times with a club She screamed and pleaded, but away eff iu that lonely house, al the dead of night, DO one could hear her. l He finally left her for dead, and returned l with The tale that somebody had murdered lana and threatened to kill him. The girl 1 was not dead. She lived ten dave, but | never regained consc)usness. Mills was arrested and jailed. He is al- most an idiot, half blind and half. witted !. 1 His trial will continue, noiwithstandiug g l his confession. The jury trying hlm know l nothing of the con fession.
 Jack Wimberly was jailed this evening. | He was the principal witness against Mills. | Now Mills will be the principal witness against him, and the lives of both are al stake.

RECOVERY OF RINGS.
Some Remarkable Instances In Which the
 Lost Has Been Cautiously Found.
oct3 Inn

Some Remarkable Instances In Which the
 Lost Has Been Cautiously Found.
 A Mir. Van Notten lost a ring in q lake and recovered it when the lake was drain ed. Moore tells how Byron's mothers wedding ring was found in tho soil by tho gardener on tho day when Miss Mill banke's acceptance of tho poets proposal arrived. If this was good luck, the jealousy of tho gods very soon avenged it. Brand, in his History of Newcastle" mentions that gentleman dropped his ring into tho Tyne, and that his wife afterward bought a fish which had swallowed the jewel. This was "in the seventeenth cen tury," and can hardly be called "eviden tial''
 At Inverness a jewellers boy was carry ing costly ring to customer. He took it out to look at it on tho bridge and drop ped it into the water. Not expecting his tale to be credited, he fled the country, went to Australia and made fortune. After his return he was telling the story to friend. Tt was on this very spot" he said, thrnsting his stick into the gray el and there was the ring round tho end of his stick For this anccdote it would be we'll to have signed evidence.
 Somc years ago man made design for his own scala sprig of heather, with the motto, Heather, !" engraved. He went to bathe on lonely beach and laid his ring down on a flat stone beside his clothes. After dressing he missed the ring, nor could he find it anywhere. After few years he received letter from friend in Australia, sealed with the heather seal He wrote, asking where his friend got tho ring, who replied that it had been lent to him by stranger in tho postoffice whcnco he had sent the letter. In this caso the ring was not recovered by the owner, as the stranger could not be traced, but tho coincidence was curious enough.
 A sportsman lost ring when shooting. Next year, in breaking piece of peat in a farmhouse, he found his ring in the peat. An old gentleman, sleeping at>the coun- try house of friend, lost valuable sap. phire ring. Long afterward it was found in tho fluted pillar of the bed Perhaps tho owner had deposited it there in moment of somnambulism. A lost ring has been discovered by it's owner inside potato which she was peeling In fact, rings, like curses, come home to roost.-Satur. day Review.

Sad Change.

An occasional wise old man is found who does not remember that he is not as young as he was once. Many others are painfully conscious of this fact.
 In London in the time of George " there was an athletic and dashing military man, Major Bracebridge by name and title, who, when he found his powers waning, retired to his country house and seldom showed himself in society. Many years later he had occasion to go up to London, and there met lady who had known him in his younger years.
 Dear mel' she exclaimed. "Aren t you Major Braoebridgei"

PLYING JIB
Wins His Title by Making the Great. est Mile on Record, Scoring 1:5s IA.

CHILLlCoTHE, O., Oct. 4.-Ten thousand people, covered with overcoats and wrap,, witnessed the fastest mile ever made in harness by Flying Jib today. The day was cold and stiff wind was blowing from the north, making fast time apparently impos- sible. Flying Jib, however, was equal to the occasion. The great pacer was adver- tised to go against the record of Robert J. [, when in reality he went hitched to run ming mate to beat the record of Westmont, 2:01 % made in this style of racing at Chi cago Ia 1884.
 At 4:3o o'clock the great gelding was brought on the track and was given warming up heat by his owner, Monroe Salisbury. His driver, Andy McDowell, then took the lines, and before the audience realiz what was going on, he came up the little loop ahd nodded for the word. Swift as the strong north wind that was blowing in his face the great horse seemed an easy manner, while his running mate seemed to lag behind. The time was only caught at the half mile post, which was done in 0:59 flat. Down the home stretch he came like a western cyclone ,and the 10,- GOO eyes that were fixed on the great horse could scarcely believe it was a living ani- maj they were looking at.
 When the wire was reached the audience yelled itself hoarse, as they knew the rec- ord was beaten. Starter Hooper then ad- dressed the multitude as follows: "This au- dience has witnessed something no other audience has ever seen. Flying Jib has paced mile in 1:68A, making the first onds.''
 At o'clock Direct was brought on the track to beat his record of 2:O7% but made the mile in 2:09A only.
