IF Mr.. Bryan gets all these electoral
votes, as / believe he will be certain
to do, his total vote in the electoral
college will be 292, or 68 more than is
necessary for his election. This leaves
Ohio and Wisconsin, which are both
doubtful States, in the West, and the
Eastern States, where a battle royal Is
being waged. Nobody can safely pre-
dict the result in the Eastern States,
because the conditions there are anom-
alous, but in three or four of them the
Democrats have good chance to win,
and in some of the rock-ribbed Republi-
can New England States the sentiment
for free coinage is growing so
rapidly that THE Republicans
are badly frightened. To illustrate
the truth of this, the Republicans up
to date have spent more money in
New England in the vain effort ito
check the free silver wave" than they
have heretofore expended in am entire
Presidential campaign.
SIS there much sentiment in favor
of free coinage in New England, New
York, Pennsy lvania and New Jersey?
"The most satisfactory answer
to this question is given I'M the
great Republican journals which
state that half million dollars was
raised for the Republican campaign
fund in Philadelphia alone ia the week
following the visit of Mr.. Bryan to that
city. Smaller amounts were contribu.
ted in Boston and other cities. Does
anybody suppose that Immediately af-
ter the Bryan meetings in these cities
the Republicans and assistant Repub
licans would be so busy in raising large
sums of money if they had not sudden
Iy learned of the strong silver senti
ment existing right in their midst
A witty silver man suggested that Mr.
Bryan ought to abandon the campaign
because it made the Republicans shel

A Lecture by Rev. DR.. Lodge.-The
Washington Post of Friday last gives the
following: yesterday afternoon at the Co
lumbar University the Rev DR.. James L !.
Lodge delivered a most interesting and able
address on christianity as Factor in Civ
ilization DR.. Lodge, who is well known
throughout the country as prominent Bap-
fist clergyman, was for some years pastor
in this city.
AIN his lecture yesterday he insisted upon
a strict adherence to the proper definition OF
Christianity, maintaining that much that IS
called by that name in the histories Is utter
ly unworthy of 80 high title. The religion
of Constantine, Clovis and Charlemagne was
declared to be, in considerable measure,
merely formal, and not possessed OF the
spiritual element which vitalizes and trans
figures society. The various factors which
go to make up civilization were pointed out
and extensively discussed. 1t was shown
that, however powerful other factors may
be, they all need TO be innerved by real
religion A strong plea was made for pure
press, for wholesome literature, and tor
symmetrical education, which should cdlii
yate all the powers of mind and heart

a Pleasant entertainment.

The Andrew Small Academy at barnes.
town, this county, was the scene Of q very
pleasant gathering on the evening Of Friday,
February SSth, when the Ladies' Aid Socie.
Of the Jamestown Presbyterian Church
held a concert, lecture and supper for the
benefit OF the church Although the even.
ing was an extremely Indictment one, the
spacious school rooms of the Academy were
crowded. The stage was beautifully deco
rated with exquisite ported plants 10 full
bloom. and lighted by piano lamps with
pink shades.
The Rockville Quartette, who had ten,
dered their services for the occasion, were
on hand, each adorned with handsome
bnttoniere presented to them by Miss Helen
Nourse. The quartette rendered several
pieces in their usual artistic and melodlous
manner. The solos sung by Mr.. Joseph
Reading in his sweet voice, and Mr.. Chas.
Prettyman In his resonant tenor, were much
admired by the audience and applauded
to the echo. The voices OF the gentlemen
composing the quartette did not seem to be
affected by the dampness of the atmosphere,
and the reputation for fine music enjoyed
by this organization was felt to be richly de.
served. Miss Lula Windsor, as accompa.
mist, performed her part with grace and
skill, as she had not been able to enjoy any
practice with the quartette her efforts were
all the more praiseworthy.

Badly Stabbed-A bloody fight oc.
CURED near Concord Church in Maryland,
just beyond the District line, Saturday night,
in which knives and fists were the weapons
used. B. G. Kyle, one of the principals of
the ARRAY, is now lying at Emergency Hos
pital in a very critical condition as result.
Kyle was brought to the hospital at
o'clock yesterday morning, and it was some
time before Drs. Peralto and McGrath had
the patient ready to be taken from the
emergency room to a ward. He had re-
ceived four stab wounds, two penetrating
to the lungs, one on the shoulder, and one
across the right cheek The two wounds
in the breast are of a very serious nature
The injured man told story of the affair
to the effect that man named Fred Burgess
had called him a liar Kyle resented this
and struck at Burgess The cutting fol-
lowed, and the gaping wounds tell that
Kyle was savagely attacked, and that the
person inflcting the cuts evidently meant
to finish him. The fight occurred about
1920 o'clock.
The patient was unable to tell to what
extent Burgess was injured, If at all. Kyle
did not lose consciousness, but hunted up
friends and had them bring him to this city.
He is white man, about twenty four years
old. He is a cook at Cabin John Bridge.
AT a late hour this morning there was no
change in his condition. The chances are
that he will grow worse instead of better
Kyle's friends did not remain at the hos.
pital, and told the surgeons before leaving
that they knew little or nothing of the quar-
rel, but that they thought that it was one
that Kyle could settle in his own way,
without the help of the law, in case he re-

Henry A. Rowland, Of the Johns Hopkins
University, has succeeded in obtaining com
pletely successful results from an invention
on which he has been working since last
summer.
For some time Prof. Rowland has had
planned in his mind an invention Tor trans.
hitting kilograms written upon a type
writer at the place of sending that would
be reproduced in typewriter form at the
receiving point. In the physical laboratory
OF the university he put his plan into prac
tical operation. In addition to the type

land, with his new machine, can send over
the same wire five or six different messages
at the same time in one direction, which, In
duplex, makes ten or twelve messages that
can be transmitted on the same wire at the
same time. Thus, with five operators at each
end ola line sending each an average of THIRTY
words minute, 500 words can be Ii
