Stockton Independent: The cheering
news comes from all quarters of the
State of the popularity of the Repub-
lican State ticket, and that Henry T.
Gage will run far beyond the Repub-
lican vote of two years ago. 1t is not
denied that many votes for the Repub-
lican State ticket will come from Dem
ocrats, or those who have previously
acted with the Democratic party, but
cannot accept fusion and the radical
socialism of Mcguire. They are dis

The manner of preparing these baths

ants eggs, and IL it be considered neces-
sary, certain quantity of the earth
which composes the bill. The sack is
then closed Theoretically and carried to
the home of the sufferer. A warm bath
IS already prepared here, and the sack
Is plunged bodily into the hot water.
Soon this latter begins to give off pc
culiar pungent odor, characteristic of
formic acid. The bath is now ready for
the patients immersion. The action of
the bath on the skin is one of intense
irritation, and the result seems to be n
drawing out of the evil, and the con-
sequent disappearance of the rheumatic
pains.
1t is advisable for anyone who may
be tempted to try this remedy to be
careful not TO remain too long in the
ant bath, as the consequences might be
a total disorganization of the skin,
which would peel off, due to the violent
action of the acid.

SURGEONS DILEMMA.
Electric Light Went Out During a

Lewiston physician tells a story
about a surgical operation and an cleo
trio light, says the Journal of that
city.

when. | heard thunderous knocking
at my door, and going to it l found a
man walking up and down the steps in
pain. He had an abscess under his left
arm and was suffering intensely. 1t
needed lancing, and we proceeded to do
1t. / got my instruments ready, placed
the man In chair under the electric
light and made an incision. The armpit
is a very dangerous place, as many
large and small arteries gather there.
l had just time to see that had lanced

blood vessel, when the electric light
went out. l had no kerosene lamp or
gaslight in the room. / could hear the
blood falling in little pool on the floor,
and my patient was terribly excited. L
was scared. / seized towel. made a.
wad OF 1t, and, chucking it under the
mans arm, told him to hold II down at
his side. Then / ran to the telephone
and called up the power station. It'll

TENNYsON'S DEVOTED WIFE.
Always the Poets Inspiration and His
Trusted Critic.

In 1880, on path in wood at Som
ersby, Tennyson came unexpectedly
upon slender, beautiful girl of II
and impulsively said to her: "Are Won
dryad or an Dread wandering here ?''
Six years later he met Emily Sellwood
again, on the occasion Of the marriage
of his brother Charles to her younger
sister, says the Atlantic Monthly. The
friendship ripened into love and in sum
mer their marriage took place.
Of his wife Tennyson said many years
later: The peace of Cod came into NV

her and to no one else, he referred for
final criticism before publishing.
"She, with her tender, spiritual ma
ture' and instructive nobility of thought,
was always by his side, ready, cheer
ful, courageous, wise and sympathetic
counselor. 1t was she who shielded his
sensitive spirit from the annoyances
and trials of life, answering, for ex-
ample, the innumerable letters adj
dressed TO him from all parts of the

WHY HE CUT THE WIRES.
Cycifst Brought Assistance by an In
geniOux Process.

Cyciist Brought Assistance by an In
genious Process.
The person who wrote that cleo
tricity was one of the mighty agents
of nature enchanted by the ingenuity
of man." says the Electrical Review,
can scarcely have contemplated in his
widest dreams the full extent of that
ingenuity. For instance, he is scarce
ly likely to have prophesicd that a
sick man, far from habitations of civ
Eization, could have cut telegraph
wire in order to obtain assistance. And
yet such has really occurred. The
whole of the vast continent OF Australia
was practically cut off from European
news for "a hours in the middle Of
September in consequence of an inter-
ruption on the line between Adelaide
and Port Darwin. Inquiries were made,
and it was found that the wire had been
cut by cyclist who had been taken
III while on journey across the CONT
nent. 1t was not related how he set
about 1t, but he had the satisfaction
at any rate of getting what he wanted.
1t is not desired to establish this as a
precedent of summoning help under in
convenient circumstances.

AS the war is over, and we are
the people, l for one would take
great pleasure in grasping Presi-
dent Mckinley by the hand, and
may God bless you on your wise
move IN this war affair; just as
millions of other American citi-
zens would do, because in this
affair politics had no bearing as
nation, and feeling of fair
ness and right had seized the
American people to such an ex-
tent that all felt like wiping
Spain from the map of the world,
but as the play came, we did
wipe SPANS fleet from the face
OF the water, and stand ready as
a people to forvive and assist the
defeated ones in way that the
world will look at us with feel
ing OF respect and honor for all
time to come. And while we all
feel proud of the result, we also
feel that we have the confidence
in ourselves as o nation to be
able to perform other noble and

for England. On his way there, says the
Philadelphia Times, he passed through
Washington, and, dragging his enact

Randolph was carried to Virginia and

the midst of that solitude which he had
always craved in life. Many years later
his remains were removed to HOLLYWOOD
cemetery in Richmond, and a handsome
monument placed over them by John
Randolph Bryan.
In making the removal it was found
that his body was buried no less than
eight feet in the ground; the triple lead
coffin was with difficulty removed, as
the roots of an old oak had burst it

his body, holding him in long en-
