A Single Item Of the Cost Of the Political
Canvass In New York City.
During the two weeks preceding an
election in New York city those sign
painters who make speciality Of polit-
ical transparencies have something of q
harvest. There are only few Of them,
and they divide about $15, 900 paid for
printing on canvas the names Of the
candidates and affixing the canvas to a
plain wooden frame which serves as
firewood after the election. The average
cost of the campaign transparency
stretched in front Of party headquar
tiers is $50. There were about 1000
such transparencies in New York city
this year, averaging about 35 in each
assembly district.
Tanmany had a headquarters in ev-
cry assembly district. The Republicans
had two headquarters in every assembly
district-those of the regulars and the
Milhollandites. Then there were the
State Democracy, the Anti-Tammany
Democracy, the Independent county or
ganization, the Good Government clubs,
the German Reform union, the New
York or Voorhis Democracy and the
Socialists, Populists and Prohibition
lists. Next came the business mems as
sociations, the young mems clubs, the
social clubs which made political nom-
nations, and such independent organi-
cations as the Italian American Repub-
icans, the Hungarian Democrats and
the Swedish anti-Tammanyites. Each
congress candidate usually had a sep
arate headquarters, and some Of the as
sembly and aldermanic candidates also
opened rooms Of their own.
The most elaborate of the campaign
transparencies was, of course, to be
found in front of Tammany hall. This
year two changes of candidates-judge
of the court of appeals and mayor-had
been made upon it, which is unusual
in one election. After the battle of the
ballots was over the canvas on the trans
parencies was torn to shreds, and the
wooden framework was split up. There
was nothing left to show for the expend-
iture of about 81 5, 600. New York Sun.

JAMES HOAR'S EXILE.
A Queer and Romantic Story From the
Mountains of Pennsylvania.

A Queer and Romantic Story From the
Mountains of Pennsylvania.
The death of Mrs. Jennie Hoar at her
mountain cottage back of Jumonville
removes one of the most romantic char
acters that ever dwelt in the mountains
of Fayette county. She was born where
she died, and her sorrowfully romantic
life covered term of SO years.
Seventy years ago there came to this
ronnty from Massachusetts, young man
named James Hoar, son of prominent
citizen of Boston, educated at one Of
the leading eastern colleges Beyond
this nothing could be learned of his life.
He secured work as day laborer at the
old Wharton furnace. Everything about
this stranger bespoke the gentleman OF
culture. This fact, added to the mys
terry of his life, led to the conclusion
that he had left Massachusetts, for rea-
sons which he did not care to divulge.
One day as he was handling large
piece of metal it fell and broke his leg.
He was taken to the hoR.e of Benjamin
Bronson. Bronson had daughter named
Jennie, typical country girl. When
Hoar was taken 70 her home, her spare
time was devoted to the care of the new
arrival. After the patient was able to
be about his attentions to Jennie be-
came apparent, and quiet country
wedding followed. They took up their
abode in little log house about mile
east of Dunbar. A household of chill
dren came to their Preside. James Hoar
had become a typical woodsman, and
many stories of his prowess as an ath-
lete are still told.
The tranquility Of the little mountain
home was broken by the appearance OF
a southern planter named LIE Clair He
was accompanied by his wife, and to-
gether they secured quarters at Hoar S
cabin. The latter had daughter 21
years old. LIE Clair pretended to have
become enamored of the fair haired
mountain girl. The secret of his pre-
tended love was kept from his wife, and
when the LIE Glars left she disappear
ed. What became Of her is still mys-
terry, and it is believed that she was
kidnapped by the LIE Glars and taken
south. The broken hearted mother new
er recovered from the loss, and from
that time life for her was one long sor-
row. James Hoar died at the age of S3.
It is now known that his connection
with some of the Cape Cod pirates drove
him into this mountain exile He was
cousin of Senator Hoar Of Massachu-
setts. Jennie Hoar made livelihood
after the death of her husband by sell
ing roots and herbs. -Pittsburg Dis

SHE MUST GET BLUE BLOOD.

The Talk Is Now That Pullman's Daugh-
ter Will Marry Alexander of Servia.
King Alexander of Servia is asserted
to be on the eve of marrying Miss Pull
man, daughter of the American car
builder. Not only does the match con-
stitute topic of discussion in the CAPT.
tails of Europe, but it has been publish
ed as an affair definitely settled in some
Of the most reliable Viennese, Berlin
and Partisan papers,
Surprising though it may appear at
first sight, there are far fewer obstacles
to a union between the American heir
ess and King Alexander than with
Prince Isenburg Bierstein, for, where
as the prince is debarred by the statutes
of his family-statutes that are recog-
nized as valid by the courts Of Vienna,
Berlin and all the minor German CAPT
tals-from marrying any woman not his
equal in birth and rank there is no
such impeachment to prevent King Alex
ander Of Servia from wedding the girl
of his choice. be she peasant or princess.
The Isenburgs were sovereigns for
hundreds Of years and up to the begin
ming of the present century, although
they are now no longer so. The king of
Servia's ancestors, even in the early
part of the present century, were illit-
crate swineherds, and, although their
descendant is king and recognized as
such by the various foreign courts and
governments. yet he is not hedged in
with the same restraints and restrictions
that surround those of his brother
monarchs who have behind them long

Flowers Dear In New York.

Violets cost only. 90 cents a bunch,
but the punches are very small. For 25
cents the Broadway florists make up lit
tie punches for the buttonhole of men s
coats, but they contain only one third of
the original bunch. When a man makes
that kind of purchase, he is likely to
else that enough people are not engaged
in the cultivation Of violets. The best
chrysanthemums sell on Broadway for
81 each. As cultivators would grow
rich selling them at cents each, some
one must be making good for the late
hard times. New York Correspondent.

A CORNER IN ELK TEETH.
Losekamp Has Over sc, 900 of Them Locked
Up In Safety Vaults.

Losekamp Has Over sc, 900 of Them Locked;
Up In Safety Vaults. :
Mr.. John D. Losekamp of Billings,
Mon, practically holds the elk tooth
stock Of the entire country, and to his
already enormous supply he is constant
~ adding the Indians and hunters
bringing teeth to him from all over the
country. Not every one knows that the
elk teeth, or rather the tusks, of which
two only are found in the mouth of the
adult elk, have a practical commercial
value. The teeth are used as jewelry,
mostly as pendants on watch guards or
as insignia of the secret society known
as the Elks. The value of tooth ranges
from so cents to 49, SO, according to it's
size, color and marking.
Mr.. Losekamp has now over sc, 900
elk teeth deposited in safety vaults
Many of the old Indian dresses were
highly ornamented with elk teeth, some
of them being fairly covered with the
teeth. Mr.. Losekamp has lived on the
frontier all his mature life and under
stands Indian trading perfectly, yet he
has sometimes paid over 500 for sin
gle garment thus ornamented, caring, of
course, for nothing but the teeth. The
Indians brill the teeth to fasten them on
their dresses, and this does not injure
the value Of the tooth, but they have a
much worse habit of sometimes staining
the teeth bright red. This dye cannot
be extracted and depreciates the value
of the elk teeth for white customer
The Indians do not dye the teeth SO
much now since they have learned they
can sell them for more in their natural
state. Forest and Stream.

The Divine Sarah's Latest.

Sarah Bernhardt has developed new
eccentricity, if report is true, which
does not inspire her friends with conf
dence in her attractive qualities as a
hostess In one Of her reception rooms
the furniture is succession of surprises
of the "shut up" order, which is more
amusing to the divine Sarah than it is
to her guest. As soon as he is seated in
one cozy looking chair an invisible
spring sends something up to tap him
on the head, and directly he is seated
in another the arms spread out and close
around him SO tightly that he is power
less to move until some one comes to
release him. Paris Journal.
