Election Aftermath in the State.

In Worcester county over 600 ballots were

thrown out. Most of them were the efforts of

ignorance thrown out of privilege to which
it has had no right.

of Anne Arundel county by 200 plurality, has

Republican opponent, that his election will
be contested. 1t is said that the other candi-
dates will contest also.

While the judges of election in this county
made no returns of the number of rejected
ballots, and hence there is no official record
thereof, it has been ascertained that, outside
of Myers district the total footing is 499.
The exact number rejected in Myers district
could not be ascertaned, but is between 20
and 80.
The largest number (59) was in the First
precinct Of Freedom district. In the Second
precinct of that district 81 were rejected. in
the First precinct of Uniontown "A and in
Mount Airy district 45. Of those rejected in
the First precinct of Uniontown, 25 were i'm
properly folded, but not in such manner, as
is claimed, to indicate that the folding was
done for the purpose of Identification. 1t is
thought that of the rejected ballots majority
of 100 or more was voted by Republicans,
and Republican leaders express the opinion
that upon a fair count their entire county
ticket, except the candidate for sheriff and
county treasurer, would have been elected.

A Gigantic Beehive.

Texas is State of much magnitude and
of so many wonders that one is scarcely
surprised to read in the July ST. Nicholas
of natural beehive there, in which tons
of honey are stored.
One of the most wonderful spots in the
world, in its way, says DIR. Eugene Muir
ray-Aaron, is the famous 'DeviF Punch
Bowl, as the natives prefer TO call it, in
Valve de county, Texas, which borders on
the RIO Grande. Its discoveries noticed,
as they came within couple of miles of it,
what appeared to be a cloud of smoke con-
stantly rising from spot in the valley be-
low them, and when they came nearer they
heard rushing sound as of a great water
fall. Il proved to be nothing more or less
than gigantic beehive, a hole in the
ground, forty feet in diameter, from which
were rising and into which were descending
innumerable swarms of bees. This, then,
was the cause of the distant appearance of
rising smoke, accompanied by the loud hum
of countless insect wings.
Those who have ventured to visit this
curious cave since its discovery, protecting
themselves from the stings of bees by mos
quito netting or otherwise, as they look
down into the yawning cavity, observe,
clinging to its sides, great festoons of hon
eycomb. Opening into the large cavity
can be seen many smaller ones, which it is
reasonable to suppose contain additional
stores of honey in their dark recesses, for
bees love darkness. If method could be
devised to secure the contents of this great
treasure house of honey several tons of the
sweet product would be the probable out
come. But this cave, large and well filed
as it is, contains but small part Of the
honeyed treasures with which those valleys
abound

From the Portland Oregonian.
The British bark Galgate, Captain
Grifhths, big four master, made a record
breaking run on her voyage from Shang-
hal to the mouth Of the Columbia, cover
ing the distance from buoy to buoy in
twenty-seven days. The nearest approach
to this record is said to have been made by
one of Renton, Holmes & Co.'S four masted
schooners, which made the run from
Shanghai to the Sound in % days. Vessels
fromShanghai are less frequent visitors here
than those from Yokohama and other
Japan ports, and the wonderful run of the
Galgate can be better understood when it
is stated that the voyage from Shanghai
to the Columbia is generally conceded by
shipmasters to be fully week or ten days
longer than the run from Yokohama. The
record passage from the latter port to the
Columbia river is a fraction less than
twenty-five days, the Selkirk making the
record run about three years ago
