NH ADMITS DEFEAT EARLY.


Before Eight O'clock Last Night He Had
Abandoned Hope.
ALBANY, Nov. As has been the Gus.
tom for years the state officials gathered
last night in the executive chamber to
read the returns from the various parts Of
the state. Senator Hill arrived at o'clock
accompanied by his private secretary
and Colonel McEwan He was the first to
arrive. Colonel Williams, the governors
private secretary, came next. Already a
batch of Associated Press bulletins were
on Senator Hills desk. New York county
had been seudingin returns since 8 O'Clock,
aud they were not of a most favorable ma
ture. At 1880 o'clock all hope of saving
the state was given up by those who hud
thus far arrived IL was even feared that
New York city might go Republican, and
it was conceded chat Hill would not carry
the city but by few thousand votes.
Governor Flower arrived at the execu-
tive chamber at 7;45. He was shown the
Associated Press dispatches and at once
gave up all hope of saving the state with
the aid of New York city. He said that il
seemed as If n great tidal wave had struck
the metropolis He did not know but
that It had been brought about by the po
lice investigation. He said that he fell
that the wave was coming when he was IN
New York in vAe morning. He had hope.
that the up state districts would be faith
full to Senator Hill. All the time Senator
Hill said not a word, but read the Asso
ciated Press returns and consulted Il man
ual containing the votes of former years
AS the county returns from up the state
arrived he shook his head and said
"Well, they did pretty well by me"

An AnsoaO.e of MI. Chlids.

This incident has been related Of Mr..
Childs, and l believe It has never been
printed. Stopping one Of his head en-
ployees n day, Mr.. Childs said: "You
are not looking well. ] think you must
be working too hard"
81 am not feeling very we'll, Mr..
Childs, that is a fact" was the answer,
but ! guess l will be all right in a
short time"
How would you like to take a trip
to Europei" said Mr.. Childs, smiling
pleasantly.
"Well enough, sir, was tine response,
"but / cannot afford it,"
"You can afford it, " said Mr.. Childs,
taking him by the arm, 'if l pay your
expenses and pay your salary to your
family while you are gone, can't youi"
The result was the man spent two
months in Europe and returned COM
pletely, restored to health.
THAT was one Of the best invest
ments I ever made" chuckled Mr..
Childs when the matter was called "a
his attention. why, Mr.. - re-
turned somucb improved In health that
he could do twice al much work as he
could before he left. You see, l wae
the real gamer by the Transaction"
One OF Mr.. Childs' characteristics
was that he never seemed to take any
credit to himself for doing a kind act.

A DARING REscuE
Three Men Taken From an lee Fioe which
was Carrying Them TO Certain Death.

Three Men Taken FROM an lee Eioo which
was Carrying Them TO Certain Death.
Captain L. q. Lawson, William p.
Kay and W. w. Wilkinson, members Of
the Evanston life saving crew, had 3
narrow escape from death the other
morning while attempting to clear IN
Choir ice away from the waterwoTks In
let. The men were IN a small rowboat
and were caught between large cakes Of
floating Ice aud carried two miles out
into the Jake. After a hard fight With
the floating ice they we're rescued by q
volunteer party consisting Of Sam Pee
ney, chief engineer 1t the Evanston va
terWorks; John Moore, the lighthouse
keeper, and Bob Skylos and Byron Daw-
con, hremeA al the waterWorks.
Early In the morning water was run
ming very slowly into the large main,
and fearing another water famine Cap
tain Lawson and his companiorB started
for the intake, which is q mile or
shore. A heavy wind had been blowing
inshoFo all night before, and the shore
was lined with great cakes Of ice. Aft
or working hard the men succeeded In
launching their boat aud started
through the bobbing cakes for the inlet.
When about half the distance had been
covered, the men noticed that the wind
had changed and was blowing hard
from offshore, and that q large held Of
Ice was forming IN a solid ma about
their little craft and floating rapidly
ont into the lake. Pike poles were used,
but Il soon became apparent that unless
some aid eame 700 they would be car
Tied far out.
A white handkerchief was tied TO an
oar, and the men took turns waving it.
