headquarters a banner bearing a picture

wafian monarch, who first conquered all
the Islands. This IL taken as something

 The Fifty-seyenth congress will be Re publican in both branches.
 In the senate the Republicans will have a majority of 16 on straight party vote.
 There will be Il Republican majority i'll the house of representatives of AT.
 In the Iaifty-sixth congress the Repub- icans have majorities ill both houses. The senate, with S6 members, consists of 51 Republicans and 35 in the opposition, giving q majority of Is. There are four vacancies.
 The house of representatives, consist ing of 35I members when full, consists of 1855 Republicans and 167 Democrats and others, showing Republican majority of IS. There were five vacancies to be filled at this election.
 The Republican majority in the house, IS in the present house, will be AT in the next.
 Maryland elects 6 solid Republican del- egation.
 The Republicans succeeded in breaking into the North Carolina delegation James NJ. Moody (Rep9 is elected in the Ninth district.
 OIie of the most surprising results was the defeat of William McAleer ill the rock ribbed Democratic Third district of Pennsylvania. His successor is Henry Burke, Republican.
 The Democrats reclaimed the district in Texas now represented by Hawiey and made the delegation solid.
 Bryun's own state overturned her con- gressional delegation. In the present house she is represented by two Repub- licans and four fusionists and Democrats. In the next she will be represented by five Republicans and one fnsionist.
 One of the biggest changes is in New York. In the Fifty-sixth congress she is represented by 15 Republicans and IS Democrats. In the Fifty-seventh con- gress New York will have q Republicans and 13 Democrats.

trict, but the Republicans say Tompkins is elected, which seems likely, for re- turns from s of the 90 precincts in Co lumbus give him a net gain of 15 to the precinct on the vote of 1898 over Lentz. This ratio of gain. if maintained, will elect Tompkins by POO.
 The Ohio congressional delegation will probably be IT Republicans and four Democrats.
 Hamilton county has gone Republican by 18,00O.
 Nine precincts out of 36 in Clark coun- ty show net Republican gain of 353.
 Charles Dick, In the Nineteenth dis trict, and Theodore Burton, in the Twen- ty-6-st, were reelected to congress.
 Chairman Long of the Democratic state committee says there were frauds at the polls in Conneaut, near the Penn sylvania line, and has instructed the com mitteeman there to investigate. He has not changed his ante-election prediction that Bryan would carry Ohio If there were no frauds"
 Three precincts in the Republican ward of Toledo give Bryan 500, Mckinley 4S7. This is net Democratic gain of 100 over 1896. Cochran, for congress, is running ahead of Bryan by ten to precinct.
 MeKinley's home county gained 1000.
 The old Mckinley congressional dis trict, the Eighteenth, has reelected Rep resentative Tayler.

Columbia Defeats Princeton.

New York, Nov. 7.-Nearly 25.0o0 peo- pie saw the opening of the Princeton Columbia football game at Columbia field, this city, yesterday afternoon. It was perfect football day. The weather was clear and cool and the gridiron firm and hard. Both teams appeared in the very finest condition. Columbia was hard and tough. and Princeton. in spite of her hard game with Cornell on Saturday, was quick and ready. Columbia appear ed to the advantage in the weight, there being difference of nearly four pounds per man. The start of the game saw Co lumbia almost continually in Princeton territory. but toward the latter part of the half Princeton seemed to show slightly the better form. The score stood 6 to !.

At the recent session of the Genesee Methodist Episcopal conference in North Tonawanda, N. Y., the Rev. Dr. James k. Day, chancellor of Syracuse university, made a speech of great en- ergy in behaR of collegiate education. He grouped together the names of judges of the supreme court, governors of states, ministers of different denomi- nations and other leading men and said, "All of these were college gradu- ates'
 Then he turned around to Bishop Me Cabe. who was presiding, and said, "From what institution were you grad uated, bishopf" receiving the prompt response, Prom Libby prison"
 The suddenness and fitness of this re- ply from the "Old Chaplain" convulsed the conference. There was round after round of applause and much laughter, 80 that 1t was difficult for Dr. Day to complete his address.

The uniaue Horn Of th. Unicorn.

The Unique Horn of the Unicorn.
 The horn of a unicorn was shown at Windsor castle and in 15os was valued at over f10.0o0. Lewis Nertomnnnus, a gentleman of Rome, saw with his own eyes two unicorns presented to the sultan of Mecca by king of Ethiopia. They were in n park of the temple of Mecca and were not much unlike colt of 90 months of age. This was In 1903. The animal became extinct about the end of the seventeenth century.
 The unicorn is represented in the ruins at Persepolis, and it was adopted by the persinns as the emblem of speed and strength. In the middle ages it wns the symbol of purity. Tho unicorn hated the elephant, and it used to whet It's horn on n stone before if struck the foe in the abdomen. No family. by the way, should be without one of these horns, the average length of which Is four feet. They defend from witch- craft. Thus Torquomndn had ono al ways on his writing table. Further. more, a drinking cup made from one will be n safeguard against poison, as will the ground powder put In drink, and indeed the wells nf the palace of St. Mark could not be poisoned in the good old days of adventure because these heneficcnt horns had been thrown Into them. rnicorn's horn was formerly sold by apothccaries at S120 an ounce.-Boston Journal

Louisville, Nov. 7.-Returns are con- ing in very slowly, but at midnight it looked IS if Bryan had the 13 electoral votes of this stnte by small plurality. There are Mckinley losses all over the state.
 In this city, which went for McKin- ley by 13,000 in 1896. it is probable that Mckinley will this year get only about 4,500 plurality.
 The first 1O1 precincts in Louisville to report figures gave Mckinley 13.313 and Bryan 9.G00. There are 1T6 precincts In the whole city. Tie latest report gives Mckinley 20,I9J votes i'll 160 of these precincts and B:yan 1C,G3T. Beckham and Bryan seem to be running about equally ill this city.

Trenton, Nov. 7.-McKinley carried New Jersey yesterday by plurality es- timated at 56,000. The Republicans elected six of the eight congressman, the delegation from the state undergoing no change. Late estimates give the Demo crats three of the eight state senators elected. The assembly has large Re publican majority These new members of the legislature, with 13 hold over sen ators-12 Republicans and one Democrat insure the reelection to the United States senate of General Sewell (Rep.).
 Few county officers were elected, as in almost all the counties these are elected in the spring.
 In Hudson county nine freeholders were chosen under a new law. The Dem ocratic candidates were all elected. They are: Michael B. Holmes, Louis l.. Finke, James Ellington, James J. Kelly, Will liam J. Moran, Patrick Nugent. John F. Nolan, Jacob E. W. veuper, George w. Caparn.
 The vote throughout the state was ex- ceedingly heavy. The larger portion of the ballots were cast before the boards adjourned for lunch at l o'clock. The increased registration was known to in- dicate big vote.

 Philadelphia, Nov. 7.-Estimates from one-half of the counties in Pennsylvania indicate plurality for Mckinley of over 100000. In this city the fusion of the Democrats with the Municipal League cut down the Republican county ticket, but J. Hampton Moore, for city treas urer, and Jacob Singer, for register of wills, are elected by more than 50,0O0 plurality.

men were reelected and general as- sembly overwhelmingly Republican cho- sen.
 The plurality for Mckinley, with prac- tically all of the returns in, is fixed at about 23,000. The surprise of the day was oecasioned by the fact that the Re publican state ticket followed closely the figures of the presidential contest and was elected by pluralitics of over 21,0o0. The Republican congressman were elected by majorities ranging from 10000 in the First district to a narrow margin in the Second for Sperry.
 The Connecticut general assembly will seat nearly all of its senators us Repub- licans, while the lower house will be sur prisingly Republican in its complexion.
