MCCULLOUGH WINNER.
Secures 60 Majority in Joint
Assembly.

Mccullough and Stanton, regular Re
publicans, were elected governor and
lieutenant governor, respectively, at the
joint assembly Of the legislature yesterday
afternoon. The Clement people under
took to defer action by bothering the joint
committee appointed TO canvass votes.
Clement and his attorney, Alexander
Dunnett, appeared before the committee
with the p.a that the vote had not been
.eanvassed according to law. They were
informed that the committee could not
entertain their protest. An attempt by
the Clementites to present a minority re-
port in the joint assembly, which was
ordered at p. M, failed and the program
was rushed through.
John l.. Bacon, treasurer, Fred G. Fleet
wood, secretary OF state, Horace T. Gra-
ham, state auditor, were declared elected
on the popular vote.
For governor, the ballot resulted
Mccullough l64, McGettrick 45, Clement
SO. McCullough's majority was 60.
For lieutenent-governor Stanton's ma
jorty over all was l09.
The senate organized by the election Of
dent pro tenn, and Walter X. Farnsworth
OF Rutland as secretary. Mr.. Farnsworth
received II votes and Editor Walters OF 81.
Johnsbury 13. Homer L. Skeels OF Lud-
low is assistant secretary.
The Republican slate went through
In the House. John Merritield Of
Newfane received 1866 votes, TO 65 for
Porter, Democrat, and 10 for Z. L. Ellis OF
Fair Haven, who is understood TO be a
Clement man. I. G. Cheney received a
large majority for clerk Fred l.. Hamil-
ton of Salisbury is his first assistant, and
Charles A. Plumley of Northfield second
assistant. The official House reporters are
L. B. johnson of Randolph and j. W.
Sault Of St. Johnsbury.
The ball was opened Tuesday evening,
when the regular Republican members OF
both houses held a caucus, as did the
Democrats, the Clement men taking no
part in either.
Horace W. Bailey presided over the Re-
publican caucus. The business was TO
prepare for the organization of the House.
There was a tacit understanding before
the caucus that John II. Merritield OF
Newfane would be the candidate for
speaker. but Emmett McFeeters OF Enos-
burg requested a ballot which resulted -
Merrifeid 9s, II. w. Bailey p, MeFeeters
II, scattering l. Merrifield, the nominee,
is a Mccullough man and a prohibition
st
7. c. Cheney OF Morrisville was nomi-
mated for clerk and II. H. White OF Whit
ing for chaplain.
The total vote, l3l, indicated That the
Republicans would control the House by a
good margin and Mccullough stock went
up notch.
The Democrats nominated f. II. Porter
OF Wilmington for speaker, Frederick
Carleton OF Montpelier for clerk, and hev.
Alonzo Chase of Richmond for chaplain.
Mccullough headquarters are at the Pa
vilion. Clement has headquarters IN IN
ion block. Both candidates are on deck,
but there is little excitement.

coarse mat that we hardly knew what to
do with, but Mrs. Newton made it and Il
went into the barrel. Sometime after
wards came a letter from a missionary's
wife, thanking that dear old lady that
braided the mat. They had no carpet in
the parsonage and the mat was put by her
husbands study table and was such
comfort to him in all the long, cold winter.
She did all she could to teach the young
to love missions. and there is today one of
the most efficient workers in India, who
says she got her first idea Of making mis-
sions her life work from Mrs. Newton.
Her life, though so shut in, is far
reaching in its results, and eternity
only can tell what Mrs. Newton has done.
As a church, we shall miss her prayers,
but we rejoice that she has been permitted
to lay down the poor, sick, weary body
and enter into rest with her Lord.

Tragic Death of zola.

Emile Zola, the noted French novelist
and man Of letters, died Monday from
asphyxiation. He and Madame Zola had
just returned TO their rooms in Paris from
stay in the country. The night was cold
and they lighted fire in a stove and went
to bed. the stove pipe was defective and
gas leaked into the room. Toward morn
ing, Madame Zola awakened her husband
and warned him of their danger. He tried
to arise, but fell partly onto the floor, and
in the lower level smothered. His wife
tainted at the same time and remained un-
conscious until discovered hours later.
She will probably survive. NJ. Zola took a
prominent part in the Dreyfus case, aiding
the Jew with his pen.

President Again Operated On.

A second operation was performed on
the presidents leg Sunday morning at
Washington. Owing to a slight rise in
the patients temperature and to unsatis-
factory local conditions, il was deemed
best TO make an incision to the depth OF
the bone. Surgeon General Rixey per-
formed, assisted by several surgeons. The
shin bone was found slightly affected, but
no trace Of blood poisoning, and the at
tendants are most definite and emph attic in
the belief that recovery Will soon come.
The president is cheerful and patient, and
apparently nobody near him considers his
condition IN the least serious.

The one topic Of discussion among To-

performance of Dan Patch at Columbus

bound to crop out, but the universal
opinion seemed to be that If McHenry

the first quarter as fast as that Famous
second quarter in y seconds and not hold
ing back in the stretch the wonderful
son of 'Old Black joe would have come
pretty near equailing the l:5s "a of Star
Pointers. Dan Patch will now have TO
start in the POI class and he will prob
ably be entered in the two minute pace
It would be IL Dan Patch was included
in the match between Anaconda and
Prince Alert at Brighton Beach-and

Patch's great performance put the So

In NEW ORLEANS
ABB POWELL TAKES A RADICAL
LY BOLD STAND.
Had Big Policemen Keep st. Vrain,
Evans and Babb from Entering
His Ball Park-No Games There
Probably for the Present.

New Orleans. Aug 4.-Under orders OF
Manager Abner Powell big policeman
today refused admission to St. Vrain.
Evans and Babb and the result was that
no game was played between the Men,
phis and New Orleans baseball clubs.
Unless the differences between the two
managers ares settled none of the series
of three games will be played. Both are
showing a spirit of stubbornness and
each declares that he will not yield.
Frank and his team rode out to the
park at the usual hour. At the gates
were Powell and policeman. AS Frank
and his men walked up to the park;
Babb and the officer laying mis- hands on
them declared they could not enter. Frank
was allowed to go in as the manager
Of the club In charge OF its financial ar
rangements. He went to the box office
where he and Powell passed each other
some spicy compliments.
"One hardheaded man isn't going to run
this league said Powell. Fisher and
Frank ran it last year. but they won't
At 3:45 o'clock Frank lined up his men
again on the outside of the park and
again sought admission. AS before all
were allowed to go In except the three
players who were not barred walked on
the diamond and were applauded by the
spectators. When the game was about
to be called Umpire Klein announced that
ne WOulO not lHeTcupOu
called in an outsider. With only eight
men on the grounds, her stars on the out
side and her manager in the box of1ce,
Memphis refused to play and walked on
the field and the game was awarded to
New Orleans. Frank and his players
went to their hotel.
Manager Frank said: 1--WE shall play
no game here unless st. Vrain, Evans
and Babb are allowed to take part. To-
days action is the most remarkable l
have ever heard of. Umpire Klein and
Manager Powell had no authority from
President Nicklin nor any one to bar my
men from the park. l have telegram
from Nicklin dated August LIST, saying
that all restrictions against my players
had been withdrawn. Powell had no
business to try to shut them out.
II am not trying to break up this
league. / am simply the victim of a con-
spiracy Powell and his faction want me
out Of the league and do not intend TO
go without fight. So far as the action
of President Farrell of the Minor League
me and my players without hearing any
evidence from my side. Baseball in the
South is at stake in this struggle. but
1 feel that what l am doing is right.
Manager Powell said: I'VE refused
to let the three players enter today be-
cause they have no right to play In the
league They have been outlawed. AFTER
the ruling of the Minor League Associa-
ton we do not propose to play with tnem
To do so would be to run the risk OF
having ourselves outlawed.'
Umpire Klein said he had refused TO
umpire the game because Manager Powell
had declined to allow the entire Mem
phis team: to enter the park
II have wired President Nickrn run
