REPRESENTATIVE ELECTION,

The reporter made a round this
afternoon at O'clock, to see how
the election was coming off, and
here is the summary up to that
hour:
At Ward l, 48 votes had been
cast and the supposition was that
Brooks had received 43 of these and
Meredith s. The voting was tame
and only those who passed by the
box stopped to vote.
In Ward 2 it was some different.
A few workers got together at this
box and the way they were giving
Meredith the third party disciple the
Scratch" would lead us, to believe
all good democratsare not yet dead;
106 votes we're cast at this box,
and we were told that Brooks would
get one hundred of these.
In ward 3, the reporter found
Sam Hitler in charge with five or
six other gentlemen, who were busi-
ly engaged in playing dominos,
while Sam was reading the closing
chapters Of Trilby, Twenty five bal.
lots had been deposited at this box
and 20 of them were for Brooks,
nWard'4, we did not visit as it is
rather too far out of the way to
walk when the game is so small.
This Ward will go for Brooks how
ever 10 to1 whatever,the vote may
be, as they are all democrats.
In Ward 5 twenty votes had been
polled and the count would show
about an equal division between the
two. ta 90. ,at.au ,H.
Ward6, had only nine votes polled
and when the reporter asked in his
meek and child like manner as to
who was ahead Brooks or Meredith,
he was told that it was "agin the
Ilaw to tell" We believe the city
will vote about 25O in the election.
that Brook will get 225 Of these. If
lac runs as well in the upper end of
the country as he has here, he will
be our next representative by long
odds. --L u

Water Power Now Used to Light Noun

"All over the Tyrol, Switzerland, an6
the Alpine country generally, you fine
to-day a curious conjunction of the
modern and the medieval in the village
streets, the stores and the inns" said a
traveller to New York Sun man re.
Gently. In the smallest, the most re.
| mote and the most ancient villages in
the Bavarian Alps, the Tyrol and the
Bernese Overland you find the streets.
the stores, the inns, and not infre-
quently the houses, supplied with cleo
trio lights. 1 revisited last August a
little village back in the Tyrolean
mountains, near Innsbruck, which is
one of the most enthusiastically
medieval communities one could well
find. The people live in the houses of
their grandsires, and follow their Gus
toms and ways.
This year I arrived there in the
evening, and was amazed to find the
streets as brilliantly lighted as Broad
way, where formerly the only light
was from swinging horn lantern here
and there. There were clusters of in
candescent lights strung across the
streets every few yards. The little inn
had complete installation, and so had
the few little shops. l was prepared
to learn that the formerly quiet village
had become a fashionable watering
place. But it hadn't. It was as quiet
and as slow, antiquated and out of
date as ever. Later, as l wandered
about the Tyrol and Switzerland, I
found the same change everywhere.
sit is very natural that it should be
SO, too, for in all that region there is
power in superb bundance. running
waste on every hand. From every
rock leaps a cascade, and over every
cliff roars a waterfall; there are
streams that flow evenly with steady,
small power and torrents that thunder
down with tons of force. The village
OF Murren, perched on the edge of a
cliff opposite the Jungfrau, at height
of five thousand feet above sea level,
has very complete electric lighting
system, and power enough within a
few hundred yards radius to light half
New York. The villages get their light
almost free.
This is, so far as I could learn, the
very first use to which the vast water
power in the Alps has been put. Hith-
erto 1t has all run idle. Materialistic
travellers often wonder why Switzer-
land is not big manufacturing coun-
try. Alas! it soon may be, now the
patient plodders there are finding what
a wonderful capability for work is in

or all the wonderful war stories that
have been set afloat since the terrible
days Of the Cos, John Sammons, of this
county, has started one of the most re-
markable. Sammons is a responsible
man, a good farmer, who stands high
among his neighbors, and whose re-
sporsibility has never been brought
into question. He was a brave sol
dier of the Confederate army, and was
one of those who participated in that
bloody tragedy on the banks of Chick
amauga Greek on tine 18th of Septeln-
ber, 1863. During the hottest of the
engagement Sammons found himself
i'll an exposed position, with shot and
shell playing high revel around him.
and he sought such shelter as was af-
forded by large oak tree which was
in direct line of fire. While handling
his piece "a bullet struck his gunstock
and cut off the two first joints of the
ferefiDger of his right hand as clean as
knife would have done it. The dis
membered finger dropped among the
leaves. and as he was more particular
about saving the balance of his body
than about rescuing as little a thing
as missing finger, he made the best

/ The war was fought to finish and
Sammons came back home and went
to work, charging UP his manned hand
to the losses of the Confederacy. Some
time ago he decided to revisit the bat
tlefield, which he had not seen in thir-
ty-tWo years, nearly, and so he betook
himself to Chickamauga and started to
stroll over the battlefield. The tree
where he stood when wounded occu-
pied such conspicuous position that
he found little difficulty in locating it,
with all the scars and knots on it's rug
ged trunk caused by til flying missiles
of death. Having found the tree he
put himself in the same position in
which he was standing when wound
ed. and then it occurred to him to look

much to his astonishment. he found
the bones where the finger had fallen,
and they correspond exactly with fin
ger he had lost
They had lain there undistlrbed ever
since that dread day, and it was with
a strange feeling that he took them,
and after establishing their identity
to his perfect satisfaction, wrapped
them UP and took them away with
him as a strange souvenir Of his wal.
tive experiences. Mr.. Sammons has
them in his possession now and will
preserve them as All evidence of the
fact that he found them on the battle
field after the lapse Of so many years.
