Kouts Swept by Fire.

VALPARAISO, Ind, Nov. O.
The town of Kouts this county
on the Handle railroad, was
nearly wiped out by fire yester-
DAY. The large grain elevator
first burned with its contents,
entalling a loss of $12, 900; next
Potter's store building and the
town hall caught and were total
ly destroyed. AS they were
frame buildings and in the cen
ter of the business portion of the
village, and as Kouts has no sort
of fire protection outside the i'm
promptu bucket brigade, it took
hard work on the part of every
available citizen to save the larg-
er part of the town. The total
loss will reach $3.50 partly in
Sured.

PARIS, Nov. 5-The committee

to 9 yesterday, proclaimed M.
Santos Dumont, the Brazilian
aeronaut, the winner of the
prize of 1000 francs offered
by M. Deutsch for a dirigible
balloon. The vote was preceded
by a warm discussion. Count
Dion, who presided, while
eulogizing the courage of M.
Santos Dumont, contended that
he had not won the prize owing
to the time limit.
Prince Roland Bonaparte, on
behalf of the special committee
which watched the contests, de-
clared that M. Santos Dumont
bad materially and morally won
the prize because a new regula-
ton as to the TIME limit was nev.
er officially indorsed by the Aero
club.

POLITICS BARRED
Best Available Man to Succeed the Late
Judge Woods.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 3
The president may, before the
end of this week, appoint a Unit
ed States circuit judge, to sue
ceed the late William A. Woods.
The list of applicants for the
place is On his desk, and he also
has before him the names of five
or six Indiana lawyers who are
not candidates.
There is every reason to be-
lieve that the president intends
to make the appointment without
any reference to any political
agreements or recommendation ons
from politicians that may be
made
He has said to men who have
talked with him on the subject
that he regards the office of the
United States circuit judgsbip
one of too much dignity ard au-
thority to be mixed in any way
in politics.
An Indiana lawyer who has had
least two conferences with the
resident or the subject, both at
the invitation of the president,
said that he believed the presi-
dent would not under any censid-
Grafton be a party to political
agreement in making this ap-
pointment.
From all accounts the presi-
dent has for ter days been trying
to find the best man in Indiana
for the place and it is said that
the appointment will be made as
soon as he can make up his mind.
Before a final decision is reached
the attorney-general will be con-
suited. Since the intimation
came that the president might
make the appointment without
any reference to recommends
tions from politicians, many let
ters setting out the good points
of different men have been receiv.
ed at the White House.

Andrew J. Montague is the new

The regular republicans of
Pennsylvania defeated the fus-

yet be given. The offices to be
filed are too important to create
much interest and a light vote
was polled, accounting for re-
publican losses.
Large republican gains are
certain in Baltimore and in parts
of Maryland and it is likely they
have gained a majority in the
legislature. The count is slow
because of the manner in which
the democrats caused the ballots
to be printed in order to deceive
the negro illiterates.
A. B. Cummins, republican
candidate for governor, carried
Iowa by $4,000, gain of 10000

Republican gains in Nebraska

more. In the city of Lincoln
the gains are larger than else

cast in South Dakota and the re-
publicans won. No interest was
