Secretary RenIy Admit. Defeat.

The kilograms and information that
nave reached us indicate a Republican
victory, said Secretary Reilly, of the
Democratic state committee, at 1890 O'Clock
last night. I'VE do not concede that the
hepuoncans have carried the State by the
vote Claimed. nor will We dispute that they
nave carried II. We do not know yet
"nat the vote was and will not discuss it
until we learn something definite. All of
the information furnished US has been gen.
eral and incomplete and there is nothing
yet on which we can accurately name plu-
raiities. All the indications, however, are
tnat we are beaten, and we will not try to
dispute 1t, but we do not intend to admit it
this early In the night"

Kings county for Bird g. CoIer, Democrat.
Gated the reelection of Benjamin B. Odell.
Republican. to the governorship Of New
York State by from 5000 to 5000. Coler's
plurality in Greater New York exceeded
115,o00, a surplus of 1900 above the claim
made by Charles F. Murphy. leader OF
Tammany Hall, but even that large vote
was not sufficient to overcome the Repub-
lican majorities from up the State. Odelfs
vote in the country districts was lighter
than two years ago. but Coler's was also
lower than Stanchfield's in the same year.
In New York city Coler's plurality was ap-
proximately 1850, made up as follows:

Oyster Bay, where President Roosevelt's
country home is situated and where he
voted to-day, was carried by Coler, his
plurality being 13l. Two years ago Odelfs

The Great Duststorm.

Scientific study of the storm of dust that swept over southern and central Europe frc-n March 9 to March 12. 1901. shows that it was one of the most remarkable phenom- ena of the kind ever observed. It began in northern Africa, on the borders of the Sahara, crossed the Mediterranean sea, swept over the chain of the Alps and extended as far as Denmark, thus traversing 25 degrees of latitude. The dust was sand from the desert, and the parti- cles that fell became finer and finer as the storm progressed northward The advance was at the rate of more than 43 miles an hour, high atmos- pheric current carrying the dust along the course of a barometric de- pression moving toward the Baltic sea. In Austria Hungary and farther north the dust-fal was accompanied everywhere by rain, snow or sleet. Youths Companion.

FIVE INTELLECTUAL FEET.
library That Is Long Enough to Fur aish Information Sufficient for
 the Needs of Any Man.

According to President Charles W Eliot, of Harvard university, there is no good reason why the normal human being should not have an intellectual training that would meet the require ments not only of our advanced civili- ,Sation, but be up to the highest stan,i- ard as fixed by the learned president himself, for recently he said: "A li- brary that will go on shelf five feet long is enough to give an intellectrs training to any human being that ever came into the world," says the New York Herald.
 Just think of iti You can hold the five feet of volumes between your ex- tended palms, and all you have to do is to transmute their contents int,o memory cells that can, at the will, be put into action for the production of understanding.
 Only five feeti I have taken the trouble to put the rule on this and ap- ply little math emati As books in the library average, five feet means 37 volumes; which is not an array calcu- alted to frighten a reader.
 Again, an average shows that these S7 books contain 3o,ooo pages, made up of 100000 words. Not so very much material from which to imbibe intel sectual training.

Moral Erect of Diets

An exclusively pork diet tends in- fallibly to pessimism. Beef, if perse- vered in for months, makes a man strong, energetic and audacious, says Pearson's Weekly. A mutton diet con tinued for any length of time tends to melancholia, while veal eaters gradu- ally lose energy and gayety. The free use of eggs and milk tend to make women healthy and viyacious. Butter used in excess renders it's users phleg- matic and lazy, Apples are excellent for brain workers, and everybody who has much intellectual work to do should eat them freely. Potatoes, on she contrary, render one dull, inyidious and lazy, when eaten constantly and in excess. To preserve the memory. even to an advanced age, nothing is better than mustard

Caesar became quiet, he again took his stand near the kennel.
 After several unsuccessful attempts. to drive the bird away Caesar seemed to understand the situation, and from that time on accepted the. friendship that had thus been offered to him. The gander's devotion to the dog was really remarkable. He. would stand guard while Caesar slept, now and then with his bill scratching the dog's head or his. back, as if caressing him. And Caesar seemed delighted to have him do it.
 If he wandered off occasionally after grass, Caesar would begin barking, when back would rush the, gander, with outspread wings, cack- ling and squawking as he came. This strange friendship lasted without in, terruption for three months, when the dog was accidentally killed. Then the gander became so grief-strickeu and forlorn that he had to be taken to farm some distance away, there to forget his loss amid new scenes

As His Child Saw Him.

A prominent real estate man in Los Angeles had an experience few evenings ago that kept him guessing for a little bit as to whether he should feel complimented or other wise. He was at home with one lit tie daughter while his wife and an- other of the children were down town. Darkness was coming on and the little girl was anxiously watch ing for her mothers return. Her nervousness grew apace, in spite ot the fathers attempts at reinsurance. At length the little one burst into tears, saying:
 T just can't help it! I need mann ma, and l must have her!"
 Do you do this way when your mamma is here and Pm away?" asked the father.
 "No, of course not" replied the little one. "'Cause then there's some grown-up person about the house, Los Angeles Herald.

 At the town meeting held in the town hall yesterday the selectmen pre-. sented resolution granting the c. R X l..

Go to have them move the abutment before January l., 1905 and in case of their not succeeding they would be obliged to move the abutment at their own expense before January 1, 1906 This motion was put to a vote, but was quickly voted down.
 Perhaps the reason that the trolley company was not granted permission to lay tracks under the bridge at Rock dale is that the meeting being in the middle of the afternoon, did not give any of the working men chance to attend and pass their opinion. The best time for such ameeting as the one yesterday would be in the evening when all the voters could attend with out leaving their work.

Nothing Too Difficult.


 Freddie read the sign over two or three times. Then he picked out the clauses about the ''separatedo and the ''lost affections" and dwelt on them. Then he looked up and down the streee hastily, plunged into the flat house, and knocked at the Yelled Lady's door.
 A young woman with her hair ir curl papers ushered him into h darkened front room hung with Or tal-looking and very dirty drape There was a stuffed baby alligator a center ta ble, with something burning in a bowl beside it which smelled bad, and various other outlandish but inex- pensive bric-a-br&c.
 "Now, don't say word," said the Yelled Lady, as she appeared from be- hind q yelours portiere. You're in love, poor fellow, and the lady is cold. Now, ain't l right?"
 Freddie started. There seemed to be something in psychics. His funereal face relaxed trife.
 The Yelled Lady was a iovial, fat little prophecies, and she seemed to like Freddie's looks. She took off her veil after the first formal moment, and even offered to send out for beer, if Freddie was dry. But Freddie didn't want any beer. He wanted clairvoy- ance.

A strange friendship between a gander and bloodh ound is record ed by Cincinnati paper. On farm near Kenton, O., there was a large flock of geese, and among them, but not of them, was a solemn-looking gander who ''hocked by himself," having been cut off from his kind for some unknown reason.
 Being lonesome, the bird made overtures to Caesar, the big watch dog on the premises. The dog, a fierce bloodhound, promptly repulsed the gander's advances. He rushed out of his kennel as far as his chain would permit, and bounced on the bird as if he would tear him to pieces. The gander escaped with the loss of few feathers, but as soon as

Location of Taste.

It is generally accepted belief that the sense of taste lies in the tongue and the palate. People speak of fine palate, and many persons express as- tonishment that they can enjoy delicacy as we'll after having had a plate fitted to their mouths by den- tist as they could before they paid a visit to that clever gentleman. But it appears from observations made by an Italian doctor that the sense of taste is not confined to the tongue and palate, but extends down the throat. You taste also with the epiglottis, that little valve at the base of the tongue, and the larynx, to which the epiglottis acts as an assistant, also takes part in the process. Concerning the palate, it is noteworthy that we taste with the soft part, which is at the back of the mouth, but not with the hard Cor front) palate that explains the mystery of the dental plate.-Chi- cago American.
