GATHERING THE RETURNS.
Scenes About New York Police Head
quarters on Election Night.

The election bureau of the police
board is the official recipient of the re-
turns from the voting precincts. This
bureau furnishes each poll with blanks
for the official record and also with four
sets of small blanks for each office. AS
soon as the count for any office is fin
ished the four Inspectors sign all four
blanks, and a policeman takes them to
police headquarters, and quickly re-
turns for others. Thus the count goes
on until Ii Is completed-Sometimes not
before midnight.
Meantime there have gathered in
q large room at police headquarters all
the Commissioners, the Superintendent,
and a great number of newspaper re-
porters with pencils sharpened at both
ends, while the walls are lined with
messenger and telephone boys. AS
soon as a report is brought 1t is read out
by the Superintendent, taken down by
the newspaper men. and forwarded to
their editors as rapidly as possible. By
s o'clock the returns come thick and
fast, and nothing is heard but the
scratching of pencils and the footsteps
of racing messengers. The Commis-
sioners soon go TO their private offices,
will speedily be calling to learn their
fate, although a very fair idea has
spread abroad by 8 or 10 o'clock as to
how the State and city have gone" on
the principal issues. In the case of the
election of November, 1894, everybody
knew that Tammany was beaten long
before that hour.
But the fun Of the street, which is now
beginning is not for that band OF re-
porters at headquarters, nor for those
Offices down town, who, with almost
superhuman diligence and endurance,
are tabulating and putting into type and
&C mmenting upon these returns for
the delectation of the public next morn

been alive with people since sundown.
dancing about the fires. They have
learned long ago the outlines of the re-
suit, and those on the successful side
are rejoicing in their tumultuous way,
sure of the support of all the boys. As
the evening advances the excitement
spreads to Broadway and up town The
newspapers will issue extras every
hour or so from p. m. to 2 in the
morning. but they do not hesitate to
give all this news away upon their hul-
letins as fast as they get it.-"Election

AFRICAN TROOPS.
Drilling the Awkward Squad i'm Three
Languages.

/ was watching only the other day the
drilling, close to my quarters here, of
the new Fourteenth SoudaneSe Battal-
ion. This battalion has only been in
existence about a fortnight, and is ad-
mittedly not made up of the finest black
material. I sat my pony, followed with
infinite interest the work of the drill in
structor, an English non on-commissioned
officer Zone, by the way, of a good

type of soldier that the world has to
show, lent to the Khedive by her ma
jeSty's GoyernmenD. To watch this
mans work was an admirable lesson IN
patience, in dogged perseverance, aye,
and in gentleness, for albeit his light
cane occasionally tapped a protruding
shoulder or checked a leg meandering
airnleSSly in space, he was uniformly
reasonable and kindly with his pupils.
For half an hour or more he labored
increasingly, marching, wheeling, mark
ing time, repeating each movement ten.
twenty, or more times, and at length,
hfcarse and completely out of breath,
and mopping the profuse Precipitation

rest for a few minutes and talk quietly.

he selected and brought from the ranks
a strapping, flat headed negro whose
loose, shaInbling limbs Topped all
abroad, and whose expression had the
bland vacuity of a bone egg-spoon, and
proceeded to put him through his paces.
He marched him, halted him, wheeled
him, stood him at ease, turned him right
about face, and marched him again, il

person, and prompting and guiding his
