10000.
Kentucky Is still in the doubtful coll

Gated by the latest dispatches.
Maryland is overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic. John Walter Smith being elect
ed governor by 1900.
Iowa is Republican by at least $1,000,
with Republican gains shown.
Massachusetts, gives $500 Republi-
can majority, the slight falling of In
the Republican vote being without
significance.
New Jersey takes It's place In the
Republican column with a majority
that indicates 1t is permanently lost
TO the Democrats.
Virginia is. of course. Democratic by
a large majority, and Senator Martin
Will succeed himself in the Senate.
New York is still Republican State,

Louisville, Nov. S-3 a. m.-According TO
the latest returns Kentucky has been
carried by the Republicans, the plurality
for Taylor, for governor, being placed as
high as 1900 by State Chairman Long,
while a plurality of 1900 is conceded by
many of the Democratic leaders. Some
OF the more faithful, however. are claim
ing a plurality of 5000 for Goebel.
1t is thought that the Republicans have
gained so materially that it leaves the
complexion of the next legislature in
doubt, despite The hold-over senator's.

FOR SCIENCE
MicroscopicaI Society
To Be Formed.
Former Attempts FaH--First 0rgaH'-
zation--A New Meeting and Cir
cular Letter Soon.

The matter Of organizing a micro
hold of in earnest in Honolulu. There
was at one time, some fifteen or TWEEN
~ years ago, such a society organized
here; but, after the usual brief course
of scientific societies ahead of their
time it passed into nothingness. The
original society seemingly had more
money TO spend than enthusiasm for
investigation. It's members were all
well-to-do men who bought fine mi
croscope for that day, and a quantity
Of prepared specimen slides; but they
progress made. What remains of the
society's belongings are now in posses
sion of the Bureau of Agriculture, out
of date and almost useless for modern
microscopical work.
The first revival of interest in mi
croscopical investigation came with the
establishment of the Government Bac-
THEOLOGICAL Station, about the time of
the cholera epidemic. This was pre-
coded by more or less private investi-
CATION which had brought several good
instruments and, perhaps, dozen or
more fine, modern lenses into the ISL
ands. After the cholera epidemic in
terest became active and an addition
of several fine microscopes and lenses
were imported from the United States,
England, Germany and Austria. The
movement, however, was not sufficient
ly concentrated to sustain the Organ1-
zation of a society, although private
persons tried to secure names therefor
several times. During this transition
period several professional gentlemen,
mostly doctors, and one or two anna
| teurs, kept the science of microscopy
alive, and, although no society was
| formed, continued to exchange expert
ences and opinions on manipulation
and observation so that there was
gradual progress made.
| With the coming of annexation came
the first really progressive step. The
new arrivals have brought quite 6
number of professional men and 9th
ers directly interested in microscopy
and it only needed a leader to take the
matter up to at last make the forma-
ton of society a certainty. Such 6
gentleman has been found in DR.. Slog
gett, and the preliminary steps are now
being taken to bring about an organi
cation for Honolulu.
DR.. Sloggett, assisted by DR.. Camp
has already secured a sufficient mum
Der of names, which, together will
others to be seen, give assurance tina
the time has at last arrived when
permanent society can be established
The objects of the pronosed society viii
be chiefly of a scientific nature, but
the same time the organization viii

instrument in educational and privat
circles.
