THE OHIO ELECTION.
A Day of Anxiety For Both
Parties In That State.
REPUBLICANS CLAIM A MAJORITY.
Late Returns Indicate That the Demo
Gratis win BE Two Ahead In the
Senate, but Seven Behind
In the House.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov 4.-Yesterday
was a day OF anxiety with the ohio
politicians. 1t opened with the Re-
oublicans and Democrats both claiming
the election OF their state ticket and
majority of thefmembers OF the legisla-
ture. Before noon the Democrats con-
ceded the election of the Republican
state ticket by larger pluralities than
were given I'm the earliest dispatches as
the claims Of the Republicans. Last
night the Democratic state committee
announced no definite claims on the leg
islature. and the Republican state COM
mittee made its claim 70 a majority OF
on joint ballot. as follows; Senate, IL
Republicans, 19 Democrats; house, bs
Republicans, 81 Democrats; total, 20
Republicans, 20 Democrats.
Wood county had been conceded to
the Democrats until last night, when
the complete returns caused the Repub-
ncans to claim 1t. On the returns COM
plete at Republican state headquarters
the Democrats viii have a majority of
I'm the senate and the Republicans Of Z
in the house.
In these claims the fusionists from
Cincinnati are all counted as Democrat
ic. The Republicans can organize the
house without fusion. There Is only one
o. the four senators elected on the flu
sion ticket in Cincinnati who Is Re-
publican. and he now becomes a factor.
If Senator Voigt OF Cincinnati, who Is
q Republican elected on the fusion tick
ct. should vote with the Republicans on
the organization OF the senate or any
thing else. that body will be tie, With
Lieutenant Governor Jones, Republican
having the deciding vote. If the DEM
ocrats had secured a majority Of the
legislature or the fusionists held the
balance of power, It is said that the
fusionlsts would have voted with the
Democrats.
The Republicans now expect two oi
more of the fusion Republicans TO vote
with them for senator, in which evenl
they claim majority Of nine on join
ballot. with a Republicans and 6S Dem
ocrats None OF the fusion votes fol
senator were counted on by the Repub
lican managers in event they should b
needed by the Democrats to elect thei
nominee. but now many speculation
ere made about the fusion votes.

A Unique Pincushion.

A very dainty cushion to hang near
the dressing table is made in shape
of large wild rose. The center is q
small round cushion of white velvet,
stuffed very hard, and ornamente1
with French knots of yellow Asiatic
etching silk, to match the centers of
the natural flower.
This is two inches in diameter; the
petals are of light pink satin, dou
bled, with little cotton wadding in
side, (the wadding sprinkled with
sachet) and folded so that they re-
semble the natural pink petal.
Long and short stitches OF white
and light green Asiatic flo are taken
here and there upon the satin, tint
ing it in a very natural manner.
Fasten the five petals behind the
velevt center and hang by narrow
pink satin hibbon Elizabeth.

PRETTY Hands.

There is no need of coarse, rougn,

When blacking stoves, gardening,

very cold weather use pair of white
cotton or wooden gloves when you
hang out the clothes; upon coming IN
again rub the hands with vasaline,
almond cream or some similar lotion,
it prevents cracks and roughness. Do.
not use cheap yellow soaps if you
would have soft, white hands; Ivory
soap is white and pure, and has no
bad after effects, while the odor is
pleasant and mild. 1t is healing to
the skin, many mothers using it up
on their little babies.
Hangnails may be averted by keep
ing the flesh loosened from the nails,
use a wooden or bone instrument
for this; avoiding those of metal.
Pretty hands are always admired,
besides this they give evidence that
their owner is neat and careful.

servants can, and generally does dress
several times each day, first for one
occasion and then for another, put
ting on one dress to shop in, one 20
lunch with friends in, and so on and
so forth, but the housewife who bakes
and does everything but brew, at
most changes her dress but once a
day, as usual thing. Her appear
ance both halves of the day can not
depend upon finery, but must hinge
upon becoming color, tidy outlines,
and perfect freshness not to say
cleanliness of attire. Anything is not
good enough for the house; nothing
is too good for ones own family.

no such notions, take Ayers Sarsapa
rilla for blood diseases, and are cur
ed. So much for common sense.
