HOW TO BE POPULAR.
Some Hints For Debutnntes by Man Who
Knows.

Some Hints For Debutnntes by a Man Who
Knows.
Always take II for granted that every
one means we'll by you unless you have
proof to the contrary. The average per-
son in society has good natured or at
least cynical sort Of tolerance and
liking for you. Very few actually hate
you or want to spite you. When you
find out that there is some one who
does, don't discuss it or quarrel about
1t II II can be avoided. Just drop the
person from your life as completely as
possible, and, above all, never descend
to abuse him or her. 1t will hurt you
worse than it will your enemy.
Don't snub other women and girls
Just because there is man around. The
man will not like you any better for ig-
noring girl friend and earnestly de-
voting yourself to him. It is the mar
ried women and your girl comrades
who can give you good time or not in
the end. Very few women dislike you
because Of your successes. It is because
Of your Haunting them.
Never ignore older and married men.
They will not forgive 1t, and they WELD
mighty power.
Don't wonder what people are think
ing Of your pose, and your gown, and
your hands, and the position Of your
feet Ten to one they don't even see
you, and II they do they are not bother
ing their heads about you. A very
young girls worst fault is her self con-
seriousness.
Don't be wondering what you will
say next. A pause is nothing deadly il
you do not make it so. Trying to say
neutrality-suspicious. fill in hia-
tus Is the most potent cause Of that
mistake commonly known as putting
your foot in 1t.
Don't giggle; but, on the other hand,
don't look rs if you were at wedding
or funeral.
Use your eyes to say what it doesn t
happen to be practical to say with your
tongue.
If you happen to be left stranded for
one dance, never sit all alone OH one
side Of the wall to be pitied. Get up
and go over to some group of matrons
and don't fancy that the whole room is
watching your transit.

TERMINUS OF A LAND GRANT.
Another Step In a Long Standing Con-
troyersY.

Another Step In a Long-Standing Con-
troversy.
Washington, Nov. 4.-Another step
in long standing controversy has been
taken by a secretary of the interior in
declining to approve the designation OF
the city OF Duluth as the eastern ter
minus OF initial point of the Northern
Pacific railroad grant. The dep art
ment holds that the terminus should be
at right angles to the last section OF
the road, and directs that a new ter
minus of the road accordingly. Under
the construction Of the department the
line of both the Northern Pacific and
Lake Superior & Mississippi roads are
the same between Thompson and Du-
luth. A line of the same character az
terminal line should be established
upon the Lake Superior & Mississippi
road at Thompson. Between the line
thus established and the eastern ter
minus of the Northern Pacific grant,
when established as now directed. the
Northern Pacific Company will not be
entitled to indemnity for lands to
which the other company may have
been entitled under its grant. The in
tention Of congress, it is stated, was
evidently to provide against making
double grant, where the two land
grants were found to be on the same
general lines

The returns show interesting features
and in some respects have been sur
prise to the lead RS of both political
parties. The New England states
have, as was expected, given heavy
pluralities for Mckinley, without ex-
ception. The Republican ticket was
successful in Massachusetts beyond
what was claimed for it by the most
enthusiastic prophet Of Republican sue

New York and Pennsylvania have
given the Republican candidate be-

The Virginia electors will, without
question, be for Bryan, but they have
been elected by a heavily reduced vote.
The Republicans have given Texas up.
Illinois has given Mckinley about

torial race Altgeld has been beaten,
but is 60. 900 ahead Of the Democratic

Ohio has given Mckinley 52.43S

Returns by counties in Iowa have
been completed. ! The total vote cast
in the state is in excess OF 51O, 600

Great Satisfaction Expressed NJ the
Triumph Of Mckinley.
London, Nov. 6.-The Standard says:
Although Mckinley is the cham
pion of the financial policy designed to
close the ports Of the United States to
British goods, there can be no doubt
that his defeat of the free silver candi-
date is matter of satisfaction in this
Country" In late edition the West
minister Gazette says:
The brokers found themselves over
whelmed the first thing this morning
with orders from American dealers to
buy in their behalf. Such an enormous

days of the mining boom, and it is not
only from the United States spectators
here that the demand for Americans
came. A large business, indeed, was
done in these securities in foreign mar
kets, especially Paris and Brussels.

The Paris, Berlin, Vienna and
Frankfort stock exchanges were in ex-

United States, and dealings in Ameri-

A dispatch to the Times from Glas-
cow says the general opinion there is
that McKinley's election will give
great temporary stimulus to the British
export trade in order to rush merchan.
disc forward before Mr.. Mckinley
comes into Office. Higher tariffs are
then expected to be enacted.
The sugar houses Of Glasgow say

THE BATTLE IS OVER
Republican National Ticket
Has Been Victorious.
M'KINLEY AND HOBART CHOSEN
Washington Is For Bryan and Oregon
For McKfnley-The Southern
Vote Is Divided.


For McKinley-The Southern
Vote Is Divided.
With two states yet in doubt, it is
known that the Republican national
ticket is elected by majority of nearly
100 in the. electoral college, and of
1000, 600 plurality of the popular vote.
New York, Pennsylvania. Illinois,
Massachusetts and Ohio have rolled up
unprecedentedly tremendous majorities,
from 100, 200 to 100000. The rest is
detail, to be settled by complete re-
turns.
There are just two states in the
doubtful column-Kentucky and Wy
oming. In the former it may require
the official count to determine the re-
suit, owing to irregularities. In the
latter, the uncertainty is due to the
slow returns. The latest reports indi-
cate that two of Wyoming's votes will
go to Bryan. There is no doubt about
South Dakota. Returns are incom-
plete, but Mckinley cannot lose the
state. The Republican candidate is
now sure of 264 votes, and with Ken
lucky and Wyoming, will have $50
votes. The other rtates that were con-
sidered doubtful Kansas, North
Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia-have
gone for Bryan. His vote is 1877, and
with Kentucky and Wyoming would
be 1873 votes.

Cincinnati, O, Nov. "A special
from Geneva, Ind /, says that 700 quarts
of nitro. glycerine in the Empire maya

The conclusion was felt miles
around. Hundreds of windows were
blown ont, walls cracked and chimneys
torn down. 1t is reported that a wagon
was unloading at the magazine, but no
trace of the wagon, horses or man can
be found. Indeed, the wreck is abso-

Sirfua' Satellite.

Lick Observatory, Nov. 6.-The
bright star Sirius has small com pam
ion, which was discovered by Alvan
Clark. jr., in 1869. 1t is especially in
teresting because ist existence was pre-
dicted in 1874 by Bessel, from CON.
sideration of the irregular motions of
the larger star. The small star moved
about Sirius in an orbit whose circuit
is completed in about fifty years. The
mass of the small star is about one-half
the mass of Sirius, though it has only
.O001 part of its light. The mass OF
the companion is substantially the
same as the suns mass. Recent obser-
vations at Mount Hamilton by Professor
Aiken show conclusively that Clark
