Mr.. Hoyt then made a few introduce
tory remarks leading to a very inter-
estlng biographical sketch OF the hero
of the day, delivered by Miss Bessie
Brown. Miss Brown elaborated upon
the fact that much honor is due the
memory of Lafayette and recalled
many instances i'm which he had rem
dered the colonists inestimable aid. She
referred TO the house in Providence in
which the marquis SO frequently visit

AS she proceeded the speakers trib-
utes assumed a strongly eulogistic
haVor. She directed especial attention
. 10 the noble impulses which led the
marquis Ia sacrifice so much on behalf
or liberty seeking people, and con-
cluded with the declaration that his
name must always be held in sacred
memory by the people of America.
The "Marseillaise" was next render

In conclusion Mr.. Hoyt again offered
a few words intended to foster the
highest patriotic spirit in his pupils

livan also wanted separate trial, but
the requests were not granted. There
was good deal OF challenging before
jury was empanelled.
The attorney general i'm his opening
statement told the jury that the case
grew out OF the Wanskuck strike and
the attorney for the defendants seem
ed much disturbed at this statement.
Mr.. Sheahan obtained leave from the
court TO ask the members OF the jury
If any of them were stockholders in

of the jury were so interested in the
strike they could not give a fair deci-

The case got down to the ordinary
smooth run after time, however.

: MASSACHUSETTS,.

Boston, November S.AAfter a canvass
 without state issues and confined almost
 entirely to four congressional districts and
 few local districts, the republicans have
 again carried Massachusetts and elected
 Roger Wolcott governor for the Fourth tsme as well the entire state ticket, by
 a safe majority Governor Wolcott's plu-
 rality over A. L. Bruce, his democratic op-
 ponent, will be about 10000 or 75.OOO or 15,-
 900 less than his lead last year. The vote
 this year was much heavier than in 1897.
 and MT. Bruce made substantial gains over Williams, the democratic candidate last
 year.
 As in the past two years Wolcott suc- ceeded in carrying Boston, which is usually a democratic city.
 The legislature will be but little changed from it's present list, namely 1S1 republi- cans and 59 democrats. Boston, November Ss-Returns from % cities and towns in Massachusetts outside of Boston give Bruce, democrat, 1850; Wal colt, republican, 4,416. Same towns in 1896 gave Williams, democrat, 905 Wolcott, republican, 6,S4S.
 Gov Wolcott undoubtedly is elected by reduced majority,J while the republicans also have elected at least 10 of the 13 con- gressmen. The legislature will show about
 the usual republican majority in both branches.

 Trenton, N. J., November 9.-New Jersey has been carried by the republicans, and Foster M. Voorhees,, the republican candi- date, Is elected governor by about 12 poo plurality. Essex county, which was con- ceded to be the fighting ground of both parties, has gone republican by about 5000, and both houses of the legislature will be republican.

 Lincoln, Neb.. November S.-Scattering precinct returns indicate a political sur prise in Nebraska, inasmuch they fore cast the almost certain election of Hay ward, republican, for governor by a plu- rality of not less than 3OOO This will be a reversal of the verdict of '96 by nearly 15,000. The count thus far is wholly on the governor so far as the ticket is concerned, and it is the belief that Hayward is run ming slightly ahead of his ticket, which would make the results on the remaining state officers very close The most sur prising feature of it all is the strength dis played by republican legislative cand dates, the few returns received showing them to be even ahead of Hayward. As these are from but one or two counties, however, they fail to indicate assuredly the com plexion of the legislature.
