FROM THE OTHERSIDE.

Mcclure, In the Philadelphia Times
(dem.) says:
ut seems probable that Mckinley
may be elected president by an over
whelmfng vote: burt at the same time
1t is possible that the contest may be
desperate and doubtful. and the cleo
ton Of Bryan Is admitted by all intel
rigent observers as a very remote pos
sibility."
He then goes on and forms an esti-
mate of the electoral vote. giving Nc
Kinley those votes from Connecticut.
Delaware. Maine. Maryland. Massachu,
sets, New Hampshire, New Jersey.
New York. Pennsylvania. Rhode Island
and Vermont. a total Of 12S sure. To
Bryan he gives Arkansas, Colorado.
Mississippi, Nevada. South Carolina.
Texas and Utah. a total of 81 votes. He
then enumerates five states in which
he declares the chances are as ten to
one that they will be for Mckinley. as
follows: Illinois. "a: Michigan, IA;
Minnesota, 9: Ohio. %; Wisconsin. II:
a total OF 80 votes. Eight states. with
the chances five to one in favor OF Nc
Kinley. are grouped as follows: Cali
fornia, 8; Oregon, 4; South Dakota, 4:
Washington, A.; a total Of 81. The re-
naming states are fairly debatable and
carry a total Of 119 electoral votes.
McClure's estimates. as above, will
give Mckinley PIT electoral votes, or
SO majority. assuming that ne does not
carry a single state in which the chan
ces appear to be about even.
The above from a democratic news.
paper of great influence and published
at the home Of Sibley himself is very
interesting reading.-Tribune.

The delegates from the several coun-
ties will be chosen at county conven-
tons called and conducted according
to the rules and customs followed in
such counties in selecting delegates to
state convictions.
All electors in the state who intend
voting with the republican party are
cordially invited without regard to past
political relations to unite under this
call in the selection Of delegates to the
state convention.
Delegates are urged to personally at
tend the convention; but those who are
unable to attend may appoint a proxy.
The committee, witout assuming any
control in this matter suggests that the
precedent be followed. that proxies be
given only to residents Of the county
represented and that the accumulation
Of proxies in the hand of any one per-
son be avoided as far as possible.

STRANGE TRAP FOR A WILD CAT.

TRAP FOR A WILD CAT.
What is by long odds the best hunt
ing story of the a comes from St.
Regis, \says the Anaconda, Mont.,)
Standard, and the section foreman, Nels
Thompson, who looks after the snake
track at that place, is the hero. To sue
cessfully carry out the Thompson
method it is necessary to have a cold
ming close by it.
Last Thursday morning, as Thomp-
son and his gang OF sturdy Scandinav-
ians were pumping their handcar along
the track to their work. which that day
was a'ong the clay bluffs east OF St.
Regis, they were somewhat startled by
the angry snarling OF a wildcat ahead
Of them. They slowed up the car as
they rounded the bluff. and a strange
sight greeted their eyes. The morning
was bitter cold. and a fringe Of ice Dor
dered the banks of the track. Broken
ice and a wet trail up the bank showed
that the cat had just swan through the
icy stream and explained his present
'predicament. For he certainly was in
the yravest predicament in which ever
a w.!dca; found himself. He was fas-
tened firmly to one OF the steel rails by
one forefoot.
The supposition Is that the cat had
come through the river and leaped up
the track embankment. His last jump
brought n of his wet forefeet upon
the rail, and, according to the familiar
principle of physics. it froze to the steel.
There he was. held as fast as If in the
jaws of a trap. The ground showed
that he had struggled to free himself.
but his efforts had been in vain.
AS the handcar approached the cat
swung around to face the %intruders.
and. in doing so. another foot struck
the rail and was held firmly. A few
o struggles. a strong brace to free
the captive feet, and the jwo free pedal
extremities touched the rail. Snarling
and with flashing eyes, the captive
watched the section men alight from
the handcar, but he was incapable Of
resistance. A blow from a crowbar
cracked his skull. and the victim of cold
water was dead. 1t required a strong
pull to detach the frozen feet from the
rail. and when they did come. patches
of skin still adhered to the steel.

Railroad Swindlers.

two crooks, and in connection with

the manner he had rendered bis re-
ports, and finally decided to relieve
him under the charge of incompe-

lie proceeded to check up his &C
counts and to transfer the agency to
his pal, j. W. IIealy, both railroad

is a Joint office. When this had been
finished, the assumed travelling audi

It is related in the newspapers that
Henry NJ. Stanley, the famous African
explorer, is gradually turning black.
Here is the story. Stanley was aware
of the fact that the African natives of the
fever infested districts eDjoyedimmunity
from the disease. He had been told by
scientific men that be could also secure
immunity by submitting to transfu
sion of blood from native. He took
the advice Of these scientific men and
submitted to tranfusion on as many as
FIVE different occasions. During each
of his expeditions the white men With
his party died Of fever in large numbers.
He. however, escaped. But now be is
paying up Tor it all. 1t is claimed
that his complexion, once fair, now
looks like that Of a dark mulatto, aud
continues to grow blacker and blacker.
