MASSACHUSETTS,.
VOTERS ARE SLOW.

Boston. Mass, Nov. Rain is pre-
yailing all over Massachusetts, today
and voting during the early hours was
slow. The opinion, which has been
general, that Governor Wolcott is sure
of reelection, has doubtless also af-
fected the volume of the vote.
Springfield, Mass, Nov THE

parts of the state indicate that fully
half of the Republicans stayed at

Democrats voted. Governor Wolcott's

VIRGINIA.
A TRAGIC INCIDENT.


Richmond, Va, Nov. 2.-Weather
cloudy all over the state with rain on
the coast but prospects of becoming
fair this morning in all sections
A dramatic Incident of the cam
paign and coincident with the tragic
end of Henry George was the death
this morning at Staunton of Col. James
Cochran, the Republican senatorial
candidate for the ninth district. He
expired suddenly after vigorous cam
paign.
Returns from all parts of Virginia In
dictate that the vote polled is very
light In many regions the negroes are
following the advice of the organic
ing leaders and are refraining from
voting, 1t Is probable that the vote
polled today will not exceed 60 per cent
of that of the Presidential election last
year. The Democrats win carry their
gubernatorial ticket without practical
opposition, and viii have an over
whelming majority in both branches
of the legislature. There will, however.
he more independents in each branch
than usual.
MILITARY IN READINESS.
Norfolk, Va, Nov. "A riot was al
most precipitated in Berkeley this
morning. There are two Democratic
factions in the county. The Cole fac
tIon seized the polling place or the
Nerbern faction on Berkeley avenue,
but left the books In charge of the
regular clerks who, after an excited
discussion retired to the mayors
office and opened a new voting place.
They left the crowd In possession OF
the booth. Mayor Mccoy requested
that company of Portsmouth mill
tary be held in readiness to await a
call from him. This was done but IT
is not thought that its services VIII be
needed as the excitement has quieted.
No one has been injured or arrested.

ANOTHER CONVICT.
Sam Burke, a Montgomery County Bur
glar, While Serving a Sentence In
Pratt Mines, Makes His Escape.

Another convict escaped from Pratt
mines yesterday evening and Is still at
large with a reward of $50 offered for
his capture.
The successful escape is Sam Burke,
a young negro man. about 26 years old.
He was convicted in Montgomery last
April for burglary and sentenced to
three years in the mines.
About o'clock Burke asked permits
sion to step into the bath room, about
twenty feet away, and left his work on
the trestle, where he was a car repairer.
The guard let him pass, but his attention
was attracted to another place, and, for
the time being, Burke was forgotten.
Ten minutes later, when the convicts
filed in to report, Burke was missed, and
a search instituted for him. 1t was
found that instead of going into the bath
room he had climbed down the hoist
ing rope through hole In the trestle
and landing safely on the ground, made
off in an unknown direction. A search
ing party was at once organized and a
hunt for the escape begun.
The local police authorities were nosi-
fled and given good description eff the
convict close lookout will be kept,
and if Burke comes to this city he will
undoubtedly be recaptured and sent back.
He was not trusty, and the circum-
stances alone afforded him the oppor
tunity he so well improved.

The Curse
Of Mankind!

The most horrible disease to which
the human family is subject is conta-
gious blood poison. 1t has always
bafled the doctors, for notwithstanding
the progress made in some branches of
medicine, they have failed absolutely to
discover cure for it. Whether in the
form of powder, pill or liquid, the doc
tors prescription is always the same
potash or mercury.
Mr.. Otto II. Ebert, who resides at the
corner of 22d Street, and Avenue NJ,
Galveston, Texas, had severe expert
ence with this dreadful disease, and
under date of April 5th, 1896, writes:
Several years ago was SO unfortu-
