necanlhsr Weather.

We have published what Hicks nas
10 say about the weather for this
month. His predictions for Decem Der
are as follows: 1.-The month Of Decem-
Der will be one Of the most severe that
we have experienced in years. 1t IS
not likely that the storms Will be dan
gerouS because they do not come at
the period OF the year when dangerous
s'orms are to be expected. Bat you
will get all the old fashioned billiards.
you want during the last part OF that
month. Things will grow interesting
about the 10Th of the month, and viii
continue until December 3Oth. We
Will have good sprinkling OF bad
weather before that for winter will be-
gin early and be cold one, but the
center OF the worst period begins De-
cember 10Th. During this time the
influence of Mars will be added to
otners, producing a connection IN the
earth's atmosphere which will be felt
by al! the inhabitants.

Common Sense Asserting Itself.

According to the fashion magazines,
the small waist must go. 1t is no
longer fashionable for women to lace
their darling selves nigh unto death:
This is good news. We never could
see any sense in woman racing
around the house with the rest Of the
family hanging on to her corset
strings, thus trying to draw them
tighter, or in strapping herself to the
bedpost with the aforesaid strings and
then standing on her hind legs try to
paw the plastering off in the next
room. Neither could we ever see any
pleasure in hugging woman with
waist like cheese straw there was
no excuse for using both arms. Above
all things, if a woman wants to appear
pleasing in the eyes OF man let her
look natural and comfortable, which
she cannot do if laced so tightly that
you can hear her ribs and corset stays
cracking for two squares.

Palm ar 9nh Euckner.

When. some weeks ago, Hon John
NJ. Palmer aud Hon. Simon Bolivar
Buckner were nominated for PreSi-
dent ana Vice President, respectively,
by the boiling Democrats at Indian
apolis, we ventured the prediction
that bg the close Of the campaign they
would be objects of almost universal
contempt and ridicule. We think
We may say this morning that our
prophecy has been fulfilled.
At no time during the contest have
they been seriously considered for the
places to which they pretended to as
pire. 1t has been understood on all
sides that their candidacy was absurd;
they never would have been consid-
cred for the faction OF an instant by
any convention representing . real
party they were performing simply
as decoys to trap timid and unwary
Democrats and deliver them to Mr..
Hanna to swell the triumphal process
sion of Mckinley. Nobody has re-
garded them with respect. No one
has contributed to their fund except as
a means OF promoting the Republican
cause. Nobody wanted to elect them.
Nobody has offered them the poor
travesty OF reverence and honor. They
have gone through the country, a
couple of transparent montebanks and
mummers. Robert Macarie and Jac-
cues Strop themselves were not more
impudent impoStefS. It seems lncreG-
ible that they could have expected
more than half contemptuous tolera-
ton, yet oftener than once they have
resented it with a fury thatmade them
only more ridiculous. They have, in
fact, saddened US with the thought
that out OF more than seventy millions
of people they only have failed to re-
alize their pitiful predicament.
Mckinley will be elected, and he
will administer the affair Of govern
meut as best he can under the condi-
tons that bese. him. Bryan will be
defeated and will return to private
life, conscious of having made the
mos. gallant and most brilli-
ant fight that man ever made
against overwhelming and uncon-
qurable odds Both will be shrin-
ed, the confidence and the respect Of
those who have followed them
throughout. Both will be recognized
by all their fellow citizens as genuine
gladiators in a genuine arena. But
these poor puppets, these make believe
champions of a tinsel cause-they
will, along with their beggarly reti-
nue. OF allies, the Bynums, the Cock
rams, and the sulking Hills, pass from
the stage without one cheering word
or plying tear, fortunate beyond
their best deserts if they be forgotten
utterly. The world forgives the man
who will not vote against his consci-
ence. 1t never forgives and it is sell
dom able to forget the man who plays
the husker with his dignity.-Wash-
ington Post.

The Assistant Republicans.

We hope that those so-called Demo
Gratis who masqueraded during the
late campaign under the banner OF
Palmer and Buckner, but who mostly
voted for Mckinley, will stay where
they have gone-in the Republican
party. AS Senator Tillman says, that
is exactly where they belong, acd the
real, true Democrats are glad to get
rid of them. An open enemy is far
more preferable than false and trai-
torous ally. These so,called Demo
Gratis pretended to support Palmer ard
Buckner, but when the time came
they abandoned their false pretences
and voed openly for the Republican
candidate. As the Columbia State
says, "the sham Of a true Democratic
ticket served its purpose. The half
way house TO Republicanism was
reached and passed. The scheme to
seduce Democrats from their allegi,
snce under the pretence OF higher
Democracy and then deliver them to
the Republican party was successful.
4 large majority of the men who have
been proclaiming themselves better
Democrats than the bulk of their party
have cast their votes unequlVccally
for the Republican party in its latest
and most hateful attitude. To all in
tents and purposes they are Republi
cans. Assistant Republicans no long
er. they have become the real thing.
We wish them JOY. And we heartily
wish them to remain where they are.
Let US have no more pretenses, no
more hypocrisy. AS they have con-
tributed to the triumph OF ccntraliza
ton and plutocracy let US consider
them henceforth as Republicans, tax
ing their share OF responsibility for
falling prices, falling wages, autocra
cy in Washington, the dom ination OF
the treasury by Wall street, the main.
tenance OF the gold standard by bond
issues, the subordination of all the
producing interests of this country to
the money kings Of the east. Let
them be credited with the vindication
of the right Of the Federal executive
to wantonly employ troops in any
State against the protest of that State.
Let them be given their share OF credit
for the restoration of a Mckinley tar
if, to raise prices, not for all, not for
the agricultural masses, but for IA
vored few. Let them have due re-
cognition for their service to the trusts
that bleed the people from a hundre1
wounds. Yes, let them stay where
they belong, and share in what they
have sought to create. The Demo
cratic party is well rid Of them. Be:
tween it and them there is deep gulf
fixed Defeated now, the party OF
Jefferson and Jackson will within
short years triumph by the excesses OF
its enemy. Against the victory OF
money over men ii will appeal yet
again, and it will wiu-and win the
more surely because freed from the
hamporing of those who flched It's
name to betray it. Goodbye to the
Assistant Republicans; and welcome
tc the new Republicans, as open foes"

Suit for Husbands Body.

New York, Nov. 4.-Sincs DR.. Al
exander Buchanan died, on Septem-
Der 3 last, his wife, Margaret Buchan-
an, has brought several actions in the
supreme court. One is to contest his
will, by which she was cut off with
bequest of $50; another is to set aside
conveyancas of valuable real estate
which he made to Mrs. Kate NJ. Eos
ter, and the third and most remark
able one she has Instituted is to re-
cover possession of the body Of DR..
Buchanan, which was buried by his
brother, James D. Buchanan, on Sep
tember 3 in Greenwood Cemetery.
The contes. for the possession OF the
body of DR.. Buchanan, who was at
one time worth nearly 81, 200, 600, and
was quite wealthy when be died, came
up yesterday in special term Of the
supreme court. DR.. Buchanan owned
his home at 355 West Thlrtieth street,
besides other property, and had an in
come OF $50, 900 a year. He lived hap.
PLY with his wife until Christmas day,
1856, when Mrs. Buchanan read in
the newspapers that her husband had
transferred valuable property to X.
NJ. Foster. She soon discovered that
h. NJ. Foster was Mrs. Kate NJ. Foster,
a handsome young widow. Mrs.
Buchanan and her husband had sew
eral quarrels, and on August "a, 1887.
DIR. Buchanan left his home and estaE-
lished bis o1licein Mrs. Fosters house.
Later DR.. Buchanan purchased the
house directly opposite his wife's
house, and opened an Office there.
Mrs. Foster lived in the house for a
time, and, according to Mrs. Buchan-
an, drove out in the doctors carriages.
Mrs. Buchanan brought an action in
the supreme court for a separation IN
1891, and had her husband arrested,
alleging that he was about 10 leave
for Europe with Mrs. Foster.
Mrs. Buchanan subsequently, o.
tanned a decree OF separation. In
the complaint Mrs. Buchanan de-
clared that her husband had lived with
Mrs. Foster at various places, and had
taken trips to Europe with her, and
that the doctor had expended more
than $100, 900 on the woman, besides
giving her three houses. She charged
him with abandonment and cruelty.
DR.. Buchanan denied his wife's charg-
es, and accused her of cruelty annoy
ing him. He said that she had pasted
in his hats: ':Prepare to meet thy
God" She, he said, set a music box
outside his door at night, and drove
him out OF the house. BY his will DR..
Buchanan practically disinherits his
wife and three daughters, and makes
Mrs. Foster principal beneficiary.

fatal Fire in New York.

New York, Nov. 5.-A fire occurred
shortly after 12:30 this afternoon in
the ) story double brick fiat, No. SIG
West One Hundred and Twenty-Sixth
street. and gutted the building. Ma
mie Descher, T years old, the daugh-
ter Of Policeman Geo. Deacher, was
cut oif by the flames and burned to
death, and her father in attempting 10
rescue her, was himself badly burned
about the face, hands AID arms. Sew
eral other persons were scorched and
slightly burned either in escaping
from the house or il work of rescue.
A policeman and several citizsns did
heroic work, riSking their lives to
save the tenants Of the house whose
means Of escape were cut off by the
flames and WHO would have inevitably
been burned to death but for the
prompt aid given them, along the
window ledges 10 an adjoining build
ing. The origin of the FIRE has not
been definitely asccrtained.

Measuring IN Aero.

Few farmers know the size Of their
fields or how many acres they contain.
It is desirable-in fact, indispensable
for good work thata famer should
know this, otherwisehe cannot appor,
ton seed or manure for it, nor can he
tell how much time it should take to
plow harrow or cultivated. 4 good cot.
ton cord, the size OF a plow line, should
be kept for this purpose. To make
one. buy sixtv-seven feet OF cotton
rope, fasten ring at each end, and
make these rings precisely siXty.six
feet apart. This is four rods. Tie a
piece OF red rag in the center. One
acre OF ground viii be q piece four Of
these cords long and two and one-half
wide. equal to sixteen by ten rods,
making 100 square rods to an acre.
The advantage of the rings is that one
person can measure by driving a stake
in the ground to hold the rope while
he stretches it out. The rope should
be soaked in tar and then dried. This
will prevent it shrinking.

ON TO VICTORY.
Allied Silver Forces VIII Today Begin the
Fight of 1898.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Chairmar Wash
burn closed the Chicago headquarters
Of the Peoples party national commit
tee tonight and will depart for bis
home in Boston tomorrow morning.
In about ten days he will 60 to Wash
ington to confer with Senator's Jones
and Butler in regard to the future pol
icy, of the allied silver forces. In this
connection Mr.. Washb1rn said to
reporter for the Southern Associated
Press: "As result Of the present
campaign we fnd victory in defeat.
The fact that so much was accom-
plished in so short time with our lin
tied means, inspires the belief that we
can win four years hence. We were
confronted with united army and an
unparalleled campaign fund, while
our own forces were divided, with Sc
cret forces in our midst as we'll as fu-
sion difficulties and the amalgation Of
opposing forces to contend with. Mr..
Bryan made the greatest campaign re-
corded in political history and stands
unrivaled as leader. Revolutions
never 90 backward and the momentum
of this campaign will be continued by
the allied silver forces.
Il believe this election will result in
separating the gold chaff from the sill
yer wheat and force the traitors in the
silver ranks to unite with the Repub.
licans, where they belong. 1t is worth
all our effort to shake off these barna
cles and start afresh with renewed
hope. In order that all the elements
constituting the novement-the silver
Republicans, the silver Democrats and
the Populists-nay be satisfied, it may
become necessary to merge all these
forces into one great army under q
new name. 1t is rarely that a new
great issue succeeds under an old par.
ty name.
I'VE begin the congressional fight
OF 1898 and the presidential fight OF
1900 tomorrow. We shall have con-
ference of our national leaders within
short time when the plans of the
contest and the policy OF the future
may be determined upon. Let no one
believe that silver is defeated. The
movement is simply purified and reg
ulated. In new form, with new
hope and vigor and with the gold bug
traitors eliminated from the movement
we emerge from this contest stronger
than ever, to march forward to the
victory which awaits US

New YORK, Nov. 5.-The following
telegram was received by Mark A.
Hanna from Major Mckinley tonight:
Hon. NJ. a. Hanna, New York:
Canton, Ohio, Nov. 5, 1896.
Your telegraphic message announc-
ing the result of the election has been
received. I beg you to accept my
hearty thanks for your great service
in the cause of sound money and pros
lection throughout tae campaign now
closed and gloriously won. They were
most generous and effective, and will
receive the warm appreciation OF your
countrymen everywhere. l will be
pleased to have you convey to your
associates of the national committee
my high appreciation CT their efficient
services. The people in their majesty,
ignoring party lines, have declared
their des tinaticn of reputation and
dishonor in whatever specious guise
they may be presented. They have
with the same mighty power affirmed
their devotion to law aud order and
their undertaking respect for justice
and the courts. They have maintained
their unfaltering determination to sup
port and uphold the constituted au.
thorities OF the country, and have
thereby given new vigor and strength
to our free institutions. They have
Indeed consecrated themselves to coun
try and baptized the cherished ordi-
nances OF free government with new
and holy patriotism. The victory is
not to party or section, but of and for
the whole American people. Not the
least OF the triumphs Of the election is
the obliteration Of sectional lines in
the republic. We have demonstrated
to the world that we are reunited
people in purpose as in name. We
have manifested in the great cause the
spirit of fraternity and brotherhood
that should always characterize our
common and equal citizenship, and
have proven conclusively that in
country of equal privilege and equal
opportunities the insidious doctrine Of
hate or of class or sectional distinctions
cannot prevail. Let US as Americans
straightway devote ourselves to the
upbuilding of America, to the peace,
honor and glory of our common coun-
try. Party disSensions should no lon
ger divide or rack the public mind nor
the zeal or temper Of either side deter
any citizen from patriotic devotion to
the good of all. WIN. MCKINLEY.
