UNCONTESTED VOTE.


A SEVERE ARRANGEMENT.
The outrageous facts made manifest
by these proofs. and virtually uncon-
tested by any counter charges dis
pensed with the necessity for argument.
The law applicable to such facts Is
too well known to need citation The
authorities relied on are those cited in
the last contest.
Comment would be an insult to your
apprehension, or be simply denuncia-
ton. Language is powerless to ex-
press contempt for the perpetrators,
or the sense of humiliation that 1t Is
possible for an organized body of such
scoundrels to reside In Virginia and
ply their frauds and perjuries year
after year. unrebuked and unprose-
cnted. All this committee can do is
to award the contestant the seat Of
which he has been robbed. To order a
new election would be folly. This and
the last contest demonstrated that
conscience will not prevent his being
robbed at every opportunity, and
shame will not restrain a claim to his
seat. in defiance Of repeated convic-
tons.

that Goebel's vote was slightly in
creased by the official count to-day and
still claim his election by at least 1000.
The committee declines to give the vote
by counties as received by 1t, and on
which the claim of Goebels election Is
based. It Is conceded on all hands here
that the result will not be definitely
ascertained for at least two days.
OFFICIAL COUNT BEGUN.
Louisville, Ky, Nov. 1O.-The official
count of the ballots cast on Tuesday
was begun to-day throughout the
State. In this city large crowd gath
cred at the courthouse. Representa-
tives OF all the parties were admitted
by the commissioners, and the exam
ination of the ballots proceeded In an
orderly manner. Judging from the
progress already made the official count
will show no great variation from the
unofficial figures, which give Louisville
and Jeff county to the Republicans by
plurality of about 5000.
There was no change to-day in the
claims of the party managers. The
Democrats are sure that Goebel will
have a plurality Of 5000, while the NOM
inee himself places it at 1000. The Re
publicans claim Taylor IS elected by
plurality of 1000.
The Times (Goebel Democracy has the
following special from London, KY:
FRAUD IN KNOX.

Democratic Campaign Committee, is at

Numbers of anidavits alleging fraud
and Irregularities are being filed with

lor's majority will be considerably re-
duced If the county is not thrown out
entirely.
Official returns from Clay reduces
Taylor's majority to 9O7.
No changes have been made by the

Presently, in one of his waking intervals, he espied a half-smoked eI- gar stump lying on the pavement, about yard from the bench. For moment he surveyed it calmly, dispas- sionately, almost judicially. Then he executed a remarkable strategic move ment. Without stirring the upper por- sfon of his body, he slowly unerossed ais legs, lowered his foot accurately and deliberately over the treasure arove, gripped 1t tn 8 convulsiye clutch 9f his toes, reversed the motion, raised his foot, carrying with 1t the stump, crossed his legs, languidly stretched forth his hand and secured the prize A gouty elubman, who was out for a constitutional, and who had watched the proceeding from another bench, was lost in admiration. teWhy, the man is a wonder!" he exclaimed to a friend.

The Imperial Guard of France.

The Imperial guard of France was created by Napoleon I. from the Guard of the Convention, the directory and the consulate, when he became em- peror in 1904 It consisted at first of SITS men, but was afterwards en- largsd. It was subdivided in 1890 into Old and Young guard. Tn January. 1874, it numbered 102, roc. It was dis solved by Louis XVIII. in 1915, revived by Napoleon III. in 1854. It surren- dered with Metz to the Germans the 27th of October, 1870, and was abol- ished by the defence government soon after. It took part in the Crimean war. 1855. As corps d'elite it was one of the finest bodies of troops in the world in the time of Napoleon l., and the history of France and its wars abounds with numerous instances of it's bray- cry. fortitude, and intense attachment to it's Fighting Emperor.

Where Cloves Come From.

The cloves of commerce are the un- expanded flower buds of Caryophyllus aromaticus Myrtaeeoe, small ever green tree indigenous to the Moluccas, but which Is cultivated in several parts of the East and West Indies. Be- fore the expansion of the flowers, which are borne in branched panicles at the extremities of the branches, the buds are either collected by hand or beaten down upon mats spread under the trees. They are then cleaned and dried in the sun, after which uni form brown color is imparted to them by slightly smoking them over a wood fire.-The Designer.

The Passage saumon, Once a Center of
 Fashion. to Be Demolished.
 One more landmark of old Paris is to disappear, says the London Tele- graph. The Passage Saumon, once the center of fashion, and situated in the heart of the metropolis, IS to be demol- ished and built over. The ground will be offered for sale in the chamber of notaries. Half a century since the Passage Saumon was as fashionable as the Rue de la Paix is today. There the dressmakers and milliners of the old days prepared the finery which was to dazzle the eyes of the proyincials. Maids and matrons from the country fiocked thither to buy Pamela hats and other articles of the kind, and not q few Parisiennes of the period were al so dressed there. In its vacinity were famous restaurants, one of which, the Rocher de Cancale, still manages to exist. There, too, was the Theater MolIere; while, in the matter Of liter ary reminiseenee, it was in the Passage Saumon that Victor Hugo wrote part of Marion Delorme" one rainy day when he entered a cafe there. AL phonse Daudet, too, has left detailed description of the place in one of his earliest books, Le Petit Chose. There are many Parisians of the present gen. eration who do not even know where the Passage Saumon is The spot has long been neglected for more stately and more monotonous localities in the west, wherein every well-dressed man and woman thinks and acts alike. Its glory is vanished, like that Of the Pale ais Royal, the Place des Vosges, and other localities famous in the social, artistic and political annals of France. The Passage Saumon is beyond the bourse and connects the Rue Mont martre with the Rue Montorgueuil Not far from it was the old post- office, where people arriving by di1t- gences from all parts of France got down. Of late years the Arcade. once so brilliant, had become the dullest and dingiest of city resorts, and was inhabited by cheap mil1iners, small gro- cers, vendors of resuscitsted tall hats and providers of faded fnery for fe- males with limited funds at their dis Dosal.

One of Christ's ComfOrters When Hs
 Hung on the Cross.

Hung on the Cross.
 Birds played part at the crucifixion, according to legend. After Jesus had been nailed to the cross two birds came and alighted on the extended arms of the instrument of death. One was g magpie, with beautiful aigrette on it's head and long, waving tail, then the handsomest of birds, but the wickedest, chirping insults at the suffering Jesus. The other bird was modest little bird, with gray plumage, which approached the cross timidly, uttering cries of grief. With it's wings it tried to wipe away the blinding sweat and blood from the face of Jesus, while with it's beak 1t tried to pluck away one of the thorns which was piercing Jesus fore head. A single drop of blood fell on the breast of the plying little gray bird, and gave the world the robin red breast. And to it Jesus said: Blessed be thou, little bird, which sharest my sorrows. May joy accompany thee ev- anywhere. Thine eggs shall be as blue as the sky above; thou shalt be the bird of God, bearer of good tidings. sAs for thee" said he to the magpie, "thou shalt be an aeeursed bird. Thou shalt lose that brilliant aigrette and the beautiful colors on which thou pridest myself so highly. Funereal bird, thy message shall be only evil, and the rain from heaven shall always fall into thy nest" The peasants or France, in accordance with this tradi- tion, pierce the heart of a magpie with a thorn whenever they catch one. In Spain the swallow is considered the good bird, and they say that when the Roman soldiers pressed the crown or thorns on Jesus brow the swallows came and tried to remove the thorns with their beaks. The Russians say that the swallows took away the nails which the executioners had brought, but the sparrows carried them back again. The Danish say that the moment ot the cruciixion the stork, moved with pity, cried "Styrkhain! Styrkhain!" God give him strengthn and since that time the stork has been consider ed sacred. It is also stated that Lon- ginus, the Roman soldier who pierced the side of Jesus with the spear, was converted on account of the blood which fell upon him. This was due to the cleansing power of that blood. according to the church, and his eyes were thus opened to the beauty of ho- Illness. ss.-Philadelphia Inquirer.
