Election for state officers was held
in Vermont Tuesday. There were
two Republican candidates in the
race for governor. The returns SO
far received would indicate that no
one of the four candidates is elected
as no one receives a majority of all
the votes cast and it requires. a ma
jority vote to elect in Vermont.
In this event the election of gov
ernor goes to the legislature which
will elect Gen. John Mccullough,
the regular Republican nominee, as
it is almost unanimously Republican
and largely in sympathy with the
General.

In Europe there is a surplus of
II women to every 1000 men, while
in the United States there is de-
ficiency of "A men to every 1000
women. The reason for this is APP
parent. Among the immigrants to
this country from the old world
there are more men than women for
natural and evident reasons. The
same condition is seen, and for the
same reasons, in this country when
we compare the older states with
those more recently settled. In New
England there are more women
than men, while the reverse is true
of the western states.

Mt. Pelee was again in eruption
last Saturday with terrible conse-
quences to the people living in the
vicinity. 1t is believed that as many
as 1900 persons persisted in this last
eruption. 1t is probable that this
eliminating catastrophe will hasten
emigration. 1t is warning to the
survivors that the island of Martin
ique is an unsafe residence.

The town of Springfield, St.
Croix county, bought rock crusher
at cost of $3.50. The town board
thought it would cost too much to
run it and traded it back for two
road graders, valued at $3.50, thus
making a loss to the town of $1,I2o.
and profit of the same amount to
the implement dealers, on the deal
besides the customary profit of the
dealers in sales. This is an instance,
not SO very uncommon, in which
public business is done. :

The gold holdings of the United
States have now risen to $606,302 1874,

ceived from that source $26,741 700, an
increase of more than 100000 over
October, 1901. The receipts from in
ternal revenue continue on the de-
scending scale, the falling off for the
month being about equal to the in
increase from customs. The mis-
cellaneous receipts for the month
show an increase of about $3.50 900
and with the aid of this increase the
October receipts were pushed up to
51,391,262, against $49,S31 1853 for last

What Gen. O. o. Howard Is Doing.

For several years Gen. Howard has
been giving himself and his means to es-
tablish and develop at Cumberland Gap,
Tenn, the Lincoln Memorial University
1t is the outcome of a memorable talk,
just after Gettysburg, with Mr. Lincoln
in which the latter urged upon him with
prolonged intensity the virtues of the
loyal mountaineers of Tennessee, the
class from which Lincoln himself had
sprung. He has there already a prop
erty, free from debt. comprising 800
acres of rich land, with suitable build
ings for housing and teaching 200 of the
poor whites of that vicinity, with
quarters for 200 more already under roof.
The work has been in operation for some
years and students have crowded in from
the first. The young men, besides their
studies, till the farm, make and lay
brick, run a saw-mill, and in other ways
also learn to support themselves. Young
women, coming from cabins, with large
families in two rooms, besides what they
acquire from books, do all the house
work and housekeeping. under superior
teachers, and are taught, besides, the
better ways of womanhood.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. Is.-When two boxers
GO = rapidly as did Philadelphia Jack o B en

draw, particularly when decisions are barred
by the authorities. Under the terms of the
match the contestants were to weigh in at
10 pounds at the ring side. This was a
handicap for Hart, who just mana ged to get
inside the weight by taking of four pounds
at Turkish bath esta blishment in the after
noon.
In the first three rounds there was nothing
to Il but 0'Brian, who made Hart look like
a novice, 40 far as boxing was concerned
The fourth round was also O'Brien's by a
shade but when he came back to his corner
he gave signs of trouble, Beginning with
ne fifth, the bout was clearly Hart s
II rd punches wer5 delivered with the weight
OF Harris body behind them, and when ia OK
reached his corner he fell into ia chair,
round. Hart started to rush things. but in
lis over-anxiety he swung wildly. O'Brcn
could not withstand his boring tactics and
lost his guard lust for an instant when Hart
COPIED lin with short right-hander on
the jaw. O'Brien went down, and after
punches witch followed hurt O'Brien who
slipped twice and era bbed Hart about the
legs BY this time the house was in an uproar

himself was showing the effects Of Ma ha rd

the body and sent his head back with straight
lefts on several occasions he could not get In
