Equal to $4,000 Full Moons.

Many people suppose that moon.
light possesses great potency and
has a wonderful influence ON
or over animate and insnimsta
things on our planet. Such persons
should remember that moonlight ls
only reflected sunlight, aud that the
quality and quantity of the light thus
reflected are not what is generally
imagined. In fact, 1t is truth which
has often been demonstrated by the
speculative astronomers that it would
take $4,000 full moons to afford an
amount Of light equal to that emitted
by the sun; and Furthermore, there is
only sky 81 ace for Is 900 such discs.
1t has been noted that some heat
comes from moonlight. However, It Is
In quantities 30 small that It cannot be
measured by ordinary instruments.
Flamn srlon says that the amount OF
heat emitted by q full moon while at
the zenith cannot be more than one
eight-thoussndth Of the amount that
the sun supplies when standing on the
meridian on a favorable day 10 July.
Such being the case, It is really sur.
prising that intelligent people Bhonld
consider that the moon has such WON

WILL CASE SETTLED.
End of a Long Litigation Over the
BalOone Suit at Bara-
hoo

Baraboo, Wis, Nov. 5.-[SpeciaL J.
The Baloone will case was settled in
court yesterday afternoon. Before Jacob
Baloone died he willed $1,000 to his four
heirs and the remainder of the property,
valued at $1,000, to ST. Josephs church
of this city. The heirs contested the will
and it has gone through the circuit court
here once, to the Supreme court and
back again.
Before it came up for trial again
settlement was agreed upon as follows:
The heirs first take out the $1,000, each
side is to pay it's own cost and the prop
erty is then divided equally between the
church and the heirs. 1t was further
agreed that the executor should pay the
funeral expenses and erect a monument
to the deceased.
After the cost of litigation and all
other expenses are paid there will be but
little left for the Catholic church. The
will was contested on the ground that
Jacob Baloone was unduly Influenced in
making the will by the members IF the

"A Republican Sem
atOr.

Louisville, Ky, Nov. 9.-The following
statement was given out last night at 6
o'clock from the Republican headquar-
tiers:
Practically complete official returns
give Maj. Mckinley 444 plurality in
Kentucky, unofficial advices indicating
that the four missing counties will in
crease rather than decrease these figures.
The Republicans elect four members of
Congress and judge of the highest
court of the state for an eight-yeaI term
and by the filling Of vacancies have Sc
cured a majority of two in the general
assembly on joint ballot. which insHres
a Republican success to Senator Black
burn.
1.-THE total vote in the state will ap-
proXimate 5000, an increase of 10000
over last years vote and $4,000 more
than the highest estimates before the
election. The Republican vote Increased
about 10000 OYER Gov. Bradleys vote a
year ago, which was 1900 higher than
ever before cast in a presidential election
and the Democratic vote was $4,000
higher. These figures Will give some idea
OF the intensity of the political Struggle
through which Kentucky has just passed.

Suit of n Chicago Bank Against Defunct

West Superior, Wis, Nov. 7.-[Spe-
cial. THE trial of the case of the Union
National bank of Chicago against the de-
funct lumber firm of Gross, Badger &
Co. is on in the circuit court here before
d jury. This is the litigation over the
assets of the lumber company which
went into liquidation a year ago. The
difficulty was commenced by the Union
National bank attaching the lumber COM
pany's assets to secure notes, and n rush
of creditors came on which swamped a
prosperous concern. The litigation is
quite complicated owing to assignments
by the company and counter-attachment
in some O. which the sheriff is held la
bic.
A distinguished lot of Chicago finan-
ciers are in the city in connection with
the case, among them James H. Els
