BOTH CLAIM NEBRASKA.
Republicans and Fusionists Are Con-
fident of Victory.

Lincoln, Neb.. Nov 6.-Tne Nebraska
campaign closed tonight with rallies at
a number of the larger towns. There
was a thinning out at committee head
quarters during the day. but much ac-
tivity in the way of sending out final
instructions to precinct workers.
Estimates of the chairmen at Repub-
lican and Populist headquarters do not
vary greatly. and conservative men of
both sides believe thS result will be
close. In this city and county Judge
Reese (Rep.). for supreme judge, will
run ahead of his ticket slightly, due to
his personal popularity, this being his
home. and his managers contend that
the same rule will hold good ali over
the state. They refuse TO admit of the
possibility of defeat for the head of the
ticket. but are not so sanguine for the
two university regents.
At the state house, among the fusion
officials who have been stumping the
state for the past month, there is the
greatest confidence in a fusion victory.
Governor Poynter, who accompanied
Mr.. Bryan n greater part of the time in
his two weeks of campaigning, said the
latter's presence acted as an inspira-
ton, and if the result was at any time
in doubt he had completely turned the
tide. He predicted Ex-Governor Hol-
combs election as judge by 1900.
There have been the usual warnings
by both committees to look out for
crooked work. but no trouble is expect
ed at the polls.

would never allow his hair 10 grow until

land great chess enthusiast. who was
so annoyed at his failure to solve an ap-
parently simple problem that he vowed
solution was found. He shut himself 'up
in Il disused room and was found four
days later by his relatives terribly enact
ated and out of mind. He spent a year
in the lunatic asylum as the result OF
his rash VOW, and the problem remains
unsolyed.
II was for very curious reason that
an old lady. who died a few years ago
condemned herself to more than thirty
years confinement to her house. She
had married a wfdower, as misery as he
was unromantic, and he insisted that his
second wife should wear the clothes left
behind her by his first wife. The wife
was as mutinous as her husband was
resolute. and she determined that until
she could have her own clothes she would
never leave the house--a vow she kept
until her death.
Woman appears to be at the root of
many eccentric vows, for II was a hatred
of the sex that impelled a once well
known lawyer to swear that he would
never speak to a woman again as long
as he lived. Nothing would induce him
TO sea a lady client. and he would never
conduct a case in which woman APP
peared as a witness. He never employed
a female servant. and deliberately cut
all his lady acquaintance. The inevitable
result was that the men deserted him.
his practice dwindled and he died. less
than year ago, alone in a squalid room.

PROSPECTS IN PENNSYLVANIA.
What Little Interest Is Manifested
Is On State Treasurer.

Philadelphia, Nov. 6.-What little in
terest is manifested in tomorrow's cleo
ton in Pennsylvania is centered on the
vote for state treasurer, and particu
larry to which of the two prominent
candidates for that office will receive
the greater portion of the big independ-
ent vote cast in the general elections OF
the last two wears.
DR.. Swallow, The preacher. editor and
Prohibitionist, received 1884 votes for
state treasurer in 1897 and 1916
votes for governor in 1898. In these
years the Republican candidate had
plurallties respectively of 129,117 and
11S,16 The Swallow vote was cast
largely by independent voters of the
two leading parties who were dissatis-
fed with the party issues or their party
leaders.
This year there is no Independent can
didate to draw these votes and the Dem
ocratic leaders claim that Greasy. their
candidate for state treasurer, will ben
eft from this independent vote. Fur
thermore. they claim that vigorous eff
forts to prevent illegal voting in this
city will result in reducing the hereto
fore large Republican majorities re-
turned from Philadelphia

year will fall fully 100000 below these
figures

TOM REEDS SUCCESSOR.
Amos L. Allen Rep.) Elected to
Congress In Maine.

Portland. Me-, Nov. 6.-Amos L. AL
len, Republican candidate for congress
in the First district. was elected today
by majority of more than 1900 votes
over Luther F. Mckinney. the Demo-
cratic candidate. With the town of
Dayton. in York county, to hear from,
Mr.. Aliens majority is 4657. Dayton
will doubtless reduce this. but not
enough to bring it below 4,600-
The First Maine district was Speaker
Reeds district last year, and he had
congressman Mckinney as his OPP
ponent At that time Mr.. Reeds plu-
rality was 5,525 over Mckinney. but
there was a Prohibition candidate, who
polled 673 votes, thus reducing his ma
jority to 4,791.
There were only two candidates this
year, but it is evident from spoiled bal
lots that a considerable number of
Prohibition voters made the mark in
the Prohibition square on the official
ballots, although they had no candidate.
Last year the total vote in the district
was $3.50. This year it amounts to less
than $4,000.
Congressman-e elect Allen is known in
national life as Speaker Reeds secre-
tary for many years. Otherwise he was
not a prominent figure. even in his own
state and neighborhood.

Where Jew's-Harps Are Made.

The cheapest Jews-harps come fro-r

made in England. OF the total produce
ton two-thirds or more are made in
England Jew's-harps are made IN
standard sizes, ranging in length from
one and one-quarter inches to four
inches Tney are occasionally made 10
order larger than that. but a fOur-inch
Jew'sharp is a good deal of a Jew s.
harp, and it may have a very musical
tone.
There are cheap Jew's-harps which
are sold at retail price for a halfpenny.
A four-inch imported Jew SHARP retails
for shilling
Besides being of many sizes: Jews
harps are made with the harp part of
various ornamental designs. Jews
harps are not tuned TO a key. but harps
of desired key may be found Com
Jew's-harps rank not as mu-
steal instruments, but as toys. Many
Jew s-harps are, however. used as mu-
steal instruments, and are played upon
by men, and not infrequently in con-
junction with musical instruments.
Many of these harps are sold in min
ing regions of the south and west of
America. and wherever Hungarian and
like labor is employed. In such places
it is not unusual 10 find man playing
a Jew's-harp while others play accor-
diors, and so on.
