and cold weather tomorrow for the elec-

drought throughout the Ohio valley the
smaller streams are high tonight and there
will be bad roads in the rural districts To-

prevent the farmers from working and thus
secure as large vote as if the weather

elections are calling 'off years" Follow

Gratis carried Ohio in 1877 for Bishop for

lowing the election of Cleveland in 1884, the
Republicans carried the State in 1885 for

AT REST in GREENWOOD
BODY OF HENRY GEORGE INFERRED
NEAR HI. w. BEECHER'S TOMB.
Simple Funeral Services at the Re-
formers Late Residence and Brief
Burial Rites at the Grave.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-After a short, sim
pie funeral service. the body of Henry
George was finally laid est in Green
wood Cemetery to-day. On few persons
were present at the family .dence. The
ceremonies to-day were th- Antithesis of
yesterdays. In the home, overlooking the
Narrows, where Mr. George had lived and
worked there was no trace of mourning.
In accordance with the expressed wishes
of the dead man, every bit OF crepe had
been removed from the house. The Rev.
John w. Kramer, of Bath Beach, conducted
the funeral services. After reading part of
the Episcopal service for the dead, DR..
Kramer paid a touching tribute to Mr..
George. He alluded to the fact that to-day
was All Saints day and therefore fitting
occasion to commit the remains of Henry
George, one of the greatest of latter-day
saints, Christians, to the grave. DR.. Kram-
er testified to the personal religion of Mr..
George. The power of religion in social
problems was questioned by man who was
talking with Mr.. George. With flashing eye,
George replied: "1f religion is nothing more
than you think it to be, our cause is lost,
because unless there is reality in religion
and we can appeal through 1t to humanity
we shall never get back Gods land for
Gods poor children"
After the Lords prayer had ben said by
all, the Rev. DIR. McGlynn also paid per-
sonal tribute to the departed. He said 1t
seemed as if they were standing by the
triumphant car of some Roman hero rather
than by the bier OF dead philosopher, and
ended by declaring that Henry George and
the cause he espoused were more alive than
ever to-day in the heart of Democracy.
In about ten minutes, after the conclusion
of the exercises, opportunity was offered
those in the house to take last look at the
body in the coffin. Just after IL o'clock the
coffin was closed taken out into the rain
and placed in the hearse. Only members
of the family and intimate friends accom-
panied the remains to the cemetery, The
service at the grave was very short, being
simply the burial service of the Episcopal
Church. Besides the family of Mr.. George,
there were present about 200 people The
grave, which is situated on a bluff in
beautiful part of Greenwood, is quite close
to the tomb of Henry Ward Beecher Near
at hand is also the grave of Mrs. Benjamin
E. Tracy.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The estate left by
Henry George is not valued at over SIS, 900.
The family residence at Fort Hamilton,
overlooking the Narrows, is worth about
$4,000, and stands in Mrs. Georges name.
Money in bank and small life insurance
policy will, together, make about $1,000.
There are in addition the copyrights on all
his books. The sale Of Progress and Pow
erty" is said to have exceeded any other
book except Robinson Crusoe' and "Unce
Toms Cabin" But much of it's circulation
has been in foreign countries, and from this
Mr.. George received no return, except $225
for one English edition Nobody except Mr..
George had any interest in his copyrights.
He received q royalty on all books sold in
this country But while this royalty was
duly credited to him on the account books
Of his publishers, it generally happened that
when Mr.. George called there for a settle
ment it was found that he was in debt to
them. The reason for this was that Mr..
Georges interest in the PRONUNCIATION of his
principles had led him to order his pub
fishers to distribute to members of the labor
unions a great many copies of his books,
and these were, of course, charged to his
account.
What is left for the support of Henry
Georges widow then, is a comfortable
home, perhaps $1,000 in money and the un-
certain income from the sale of his books.
The royalties on these cannot exceed few
hundred dollars year.

Numher of Votes the Leading Candi-
dates Are Expected to Poll.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The last estimates
and claims of the various managers OF the
Greater New York campaign were given
ont to-day and tonight Chairman Quigg,
for the Republicans, said the county COM
mittee confidently anticipates the election
of General Tracy and feels absolutely con-
fdent that Seth Low will not carry a sim
gle assembly district in the present city Of
New York According to Mr.. Quigg, the
ratio of votes as between Low and Tracy
will be S1h to i and he expects to poll
a total Of 100000 votes:
Ex-Mayor Hugh Grant, who is Judge Van
Wyck's manager, issued a statement, in
which he estimated the Democratic candi-
dates total vote in Greater New York at
900. OF these he expects $4,000 in the
present city of New York, s4,5O0 in Brook
lyn and 1875 in the boroughs of Queens and
Richmond Mr.. Grant in his forecast places
the Henry George vote as from 10000 to
25,OOO and gives Tracy and Low 225.3OO to
divide between them.
John c. Sheehan, leader Of Tammany
Hall, has issued the following statement:
THE great municipal political contest is
about to close. 1t Will be memorable in
result in a great Democratic victory AS
in the days of Thomas Jefferson, the Demo-
cratic party in this contest has been ar
rayed against a party who believe that the
masses Of the people have no voice in the
selection of their officials. 1t has had to
fight against the greed of the party of
monopolists, with the federal administra-
ton at it's head. For the past three years
the city Of New York has been governed
by the party which has had for its motto:
i am hoier than thou, and which has
given us the most wasteful extravagant
and corrupt administration that the city of
New York has ever experienced. Unques-
tionably the results tomorrow night will
verify the claims made during the canvass

NNGSTREE'S SCHOOLS.
AN AUSPlCIOuS OPENING LAST
MONDAY MORNING
Of the Kingstree Aeademy.-The coun'
y Public School to Commence
Next Week.

The regular fall session Kings.
tree academy began last Monda!
with MIR. Chas. W Sloll as princi-
pal and Miss Nellie Bristow as
assistant. A good attendance
was enrolled the first day and the
number has been increased daily
since. There is every prospect
of fiourishing year, and The new
teachers have already won the
hearts of their pupils.
Mr.. S,oll is a young man, a
graduate of Wofford college. and
has had several years experience
in teaching. He comes 10 Kings
tree very highly recommended,
and there is no doubt that lie
academy will maintain its already
high standard of excellence under
his supervision. Miss Bristow is
a daughter Of Mr.. e d Bristow, OF
Florence, and is a first-honor grad
uale of the Winthrop Normal and
Industrial college. President
johnson unhesitating'y named her
when he was asked TO recommend
a teacher for this place. During
her few days stay inhingstree she
has created quite Il favorable I'M
preston upon both the patrons
and the pupils Of the school. /.
The county pubic school will
not be run in connection with the
academy this year, Us formerly.
but will be taught by Miss Sallie
Wilson.
Miss Wilson needs no introduc-
ton to the people of Kingstree, as
she has taught here before. She
is a graduate of the Greenville
Female college, and is considered
one of the very best young lady
teachers IN the Stale. Her school
will begin next Monday, Oct. 11th,
and will be literally patronized.
The trustees of the public fund
thought this plan advisable, and
so We will have two first class
schools In Kingstree this year
one supported by the county
funls and the other by the town
money-and both under excel
lent management.
