THE LATEST NEWS.

From reports received up to noon, it
is certain that the vote on congressman
is very close. Democrats at Juneau
are conceding Barwig's defeat and it is
said Sauerhering will have about 300
plurality. Other reports, however,
give Barwig about this. He has be-
tween l 200 and / 100 in Jefferson coun-
ty and 2,200 in Dodge, while Sauerher-
ing has 400 in Columbia and all the
way from l 800 to 1900 in Dane, ac-
cording to different reports.
The Republican Dodge county ticket
is defeated by $500. Burke (Dem.) is
elected senator in the 18th district by
600
Shannon Dem. is elected sheriff by
about $50. Wertheimer is defeated.
Christians Dem. is elected to the as
sembly in the second district by about
200, while Conway in the first district
will have at least 200.

The Bragg Meeting.

The Democrats closed the local cam
paign Friday night with a speech at
Turner Opera house by General Ed
ward S. Bragg, of Fond du Lac. The
inclement weather held the size of the
audience down somewhat, still the hall
was well filled and the little general"
met with cordial reception when be
took the stage, he always having been
a favorite here. But, while be deliv
cred fairly good Democratic speech,
his talk did not possess the fire and elo
quence of old, and he failed to arouse
his hearers to enthusiastic outbursts
One exception, however, must be made
to this, and that was when the speaker,
in advising united support of Demo-
cratic legislative candidates, had occa-
sion to allude to the next United States
senator from Wisconsin, the crowd
With almost one accord proclaiming its
choice by shouting Bragg's name.
Thus the sentiment of the community
was voiced in no uncertain way and q
complete squelching given to the Villas
Wall faction of the party.

THEIR OWN AFFAIR.

Successful Halloween Entertainment
by the Congregational Gentlemen.
The gentlemen of the Congregations
church auspiciously observed Hallow
e'en with an oyster supper at the
church parlors last Wednesday even
ing 1t proved to be, as was promised
one of the leading social events of the
season, and the projectors are to be
that attended their efforts. Supper
was served from 6 o'clock until all had
been bountifully fed.
AS much interest had been aroused
as to the proficiency of the men IN
handling affairs of this nature, the
parlors were crowded with large and
agreeable gathering, and it must be
said there was no disappointment over
the treatment extended. The dining
tables presented an inviting and cheer
ful appearance, each tastfully arranged
and adorned with liberality of chrys-
anthemums, while in corners of the
rooms were placed palms and other
plants. The tables were attended by a
corps of colored walters, each in the
conventional burnt cork and porter's
white duck Jackets. There were six OF
these-W G. Stone, E. w. Schultz. Ed.

the following gentlemen served: Will

John Chapman, Chris. Martinsen and
and VIM. Meyer. They did the cook

just as we'll thatthey were. When the
time came for collecting the quarters,
Fred Ryder's benign countenance
beamed upon all, and he gathered in
many shekels for the good of the
church.
Means of entertainment were prrvid
ed the guests while waiting for supper.
The Mandolin orchestra PLAYED several
selections, and pleasing recitations
were given by Miss Edna Chadv ick
and Mollie Latin, of Milwaukee, the
latter a little miss Of only years.
whose work was indeed surprising for
one SO young.
The gentlemen worked with an un
tiring will for the success of their ven
ture and much credit is due them. It
was amply proven that hereafter the
ladies have need to do their
best if they wish to sustain their repu-
tations. The supper was profitable to
a large degree, SIS being realized. Will
Buthorn was the prime mover and is
entitled to great praise for his excel
lent management Of the affair.

THE ELECTION.

Net Democratic Loss in the City of 147
The election yesterday passed off
very quietly, and there were no incl
dents of any especial interest Quite
a good vote was polled for an off year,
it falling only 81 short of the general
election two years ago. All the wards
except the Third and Seventh show
Republican gains on governor over
1892, and these exceptions are so small
they are hardly worth noticing, the net
Democratic gain in the Third being 8
and in the Seventh only 2. In the
First ward the Republicans gain 73 and
in the Second 81. The net gain through
out the city is 14S. This result is indeed
gratifying and encouraging to Repub-
licans, and shows that Major Upham is
considerably more popular here than
many supposed
Herman Wertheimer, Republican
candidate for county treasurer, carried
the First and Second wards and held
his opponent down to 207 majority in
the city, thus running 1856 ahead of his
ticket and receiving splendid home
endorsement
The Democrats were quite active in
getting out the vote and kept several
carriages going all day. Senator Solli-
day and John G. Conway worked hard
and were rewarded by running ahead
of THEN ticket. The formers ward es-
pcoially made a good showing for the
Democrats.
The vote in detail is given below:

tient that for several DAYS he lay ap-
parently in great agony. refusing to
eat, took with eagerness all the bitter
potions prescribed for him by the
physicians. His trick was finally dis
covered and it failed to work on sew

Being determined not to work and
knowing no way out of it but sickness

carrying out his purpose. About one
week ago he ate quantity of soap.

Crime of d serions nature has CON

the opening of the Quarter Sessions
in several parts of the country the
Judges were presented with white

Glare, which under Mr.. Balfour's re

Court Kelly had nothing to do, and
congratulated the magistrates on the

Water and the Human Body.

Comparatively few people know
what a large amount of water the hui.
man body consists of. A man weigh
ing 200 pounds is made up of 100
pounds of water and so pounds Of
solids. The latter includes bone and
muscle. Even the fat of the body
contains 10 per cent of water, the
liver is made up Of 50 per cent and
the blood of SO. The skin contains
- per cent and the brain IS.
Il may be naturally supposed that
fluid so universally distributed
throughout the body must constitute
a very important article of existence.
Recent experiments have demonstra-
ted that on water alone life may be
sustained for 50 days, whereas if dry
food only were given death would en-
sue in quarter of that time, and in
most agonizing way. The terrible
agony that shipwrecked mariners suf-
fer in this way will induce them to
drink sea water, which adds a hun.
dred fold to the uncomfortable thirst
that induces delirum and death.-Ex.

BannCck County Bond Case.

The Bannock county bond case has
been decided by the supreme court
against the county: The proposed
bonds would be invalid because the
question of their issuance was not
submitted to a vote of the people.
1t was proposed to issue 100000 of
z per cent bonds to fund the floating
Indebtedness of the county. c. Bunt-
ing & Co., offered to take the whole
amount at par and accrued interest,
.depositing a certified check for $4,000
with the bid, but reserving the right
TO pass up the validity of the bonds.
The bid was accepted and the bonds
executed and offered 70 Bunting & Co.
The latter decided the issue was lille
gal and refused to take them. The
county then brought action in the dis
trict court where judgment was given
in favor of the defendant. The case
was appealed and judgment is affirm
ed. The case is one of great impor-
lance and the decision covers a nun,
.bel of points.
The court also decides that the
warrant drawn for $4,000 to pay for
a court house site was illegal.

GIANT TREE OF STONE.
Description of the Largest Fortified
Specimen on Record.

1
The largest tree in the world lies
broken and petrifed at the end Of a
defile in Northwestern Nevada. The
following story of the colossal petrif-
cation is told BY "Old Dad Lynn Of
Fresno
"Close to the Baker county line we
came to an opening in the rocks about
wide enough Tor our wagons to 20
! through, and on either side doomed
precipices 500 or 800 feet high. The
crevasse was about fifteen miles long
and at its end, just to the right Of the
trail, we found a number Of petritied
tree stumps of different heights and
sizes.
In their midst, on the ground. Law a
a monster tree, somewhat imbeddcd
in the soil 1t was completely petri-
fed, and from the clean-cut fractures
Of the trunk, seemed to have fallen
after its petritication, At its butt
this tree was quite 50 feet in diane
ter We measured its length with
tape line, ard it was G66 feet long.
No limbs remained, but in the trunk
we're clefts, where apparently limbs
had broken of.
Where the huge trunk was broken
squarely off, the center seemed trans.
parent and the growth marks showed
in beautiful concentrlc rings. It's
natural appearance was handsomer
than any dressed marble or mosaic |
have ever seen, and we all expressed
the opinion that it would make won
derfully beautiful floor and interior
finish for some grand building.
