NEW JERSEY.
Republicans Claim State, But Parier's Visit ROuses Hopes of Dem~
 0cratic Victory.


 Visit R0uses Hopes of Den-
 ocratic Victory.
 Trenton, N. J.. Oct. 29.-These esti- mates of pluralities in this State are based on information derived from the State committees of both parties, the chairmen of the county committees of both parties, prominent Republican and Democratic politicians, reports made to the respective party headquarters and Herald correspondents in every county in the State. In all cases the estimates were given confdentially, and were claimed to be conservative. An aver age was made of all the reports, ana this is the result:
 Both parties concede the State to Roosevelt this week. but the Demo- crats have not abandoned hope of turn ing the trick and of yet wrestling vic- tory from apparent defeat.
 Former Senator Smith is making desperate efforts to stem the Roosevelt current, and hopes that the appearance of Judge Parker and former President Cleveland in the canvass in Newark next week will rouse the Democracy of New Jersey to victorious enthusiasm.
 The Democratic leaders all over the State are counting with considerable confidence on electing Charles c. Black Governor on the equal taxation issue. The Republicans are uneasy. being un- able to gauge public sentiment on this question. They fear a big silent vote.
 The vote for Representative In Con- Rress is not expected to vary much from that for President. The follow ing candidates will probably be elect ed: First District, H. c. Loudensla- ger. Republican; Second District. John J. Gardner, Republican,: Third District. Benjamin F. Howell, Republican; Fourth District Ira W. Wood. Repub- Iican: Fifth District, Charles N. Fowl CT. Republican,; Sixth District. Henry c. Allen. Republican; Seventh District. Richard w. Parker, Republican; Eighth District, William H. Wiley, Republican; 1; Ninth District, Allan Beny. Democrat, and Tenth District, Allan L. McDermott, Democrat.

What Sulphur Does.
Fer the Human Body in Health and
 Disease.

Fer the Human Body in Health and
 Disease.
 The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grand mothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and mo- lasses every spring and fall.
 It was the universal spring and fall 'blood purifier" tonic and cure-all, and mind you, this old-fashioned rem edy was crude and unpalatable, and large quantity had to be taken to get any effect.
 Nowadays we get all the beneficial effects of sulphur in a palatable, con- centrated form. so that a single grain is far more effective than a tablespoon full of the crude sulphur.
 In recent years, research and experi- ment have proven that the best sul- phur for mdicinal use is that obtained from Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and sold in drug stores under the name of Stuarts Calcium Waters. They are small chocolate coated pellets and contain the active medicinal principle of sulphur in highly concentrated, ef- fective form.
 Few people are aware of the value of this form of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health: sulphur acts directly on the liver. and
 
 riches the blood by the prompt elimi- nation of waste material.
 Our grandmothers knew this when 0hey dosed us with sulphur and mo- gasses every spring and fall. but the crudfty and impurity of ordinary flow CTS of sulphur were often worse than the disease. and cannot compare with the modern concentrated prepar- ations of sulphur, of which Stuarts Waters ia nndnnhf adlx hal haS and most widely used.
 They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure constipation and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and physician alike.
 pr. R. NJ. Wilkins while experi- menting with sulphur remedies soon found that the sulphur from Calcium was superior to any other form. He says: For liver. kidney and blood troubles, especially when resulting from constipation or malara, have been surprised at the results obtained from Stuarts Calcium Waters. In pa- tients suffering from boils and pim- ples and even deep-seated carbuncles, I have repeatedly seen them dry up and disappear in four or five days. leaving the skin clear and smooth. AL though Stuart's Calcium Waters is proprietary article, and sold by drug wists, and for that reason tabooed by many physicians. yet I know of noth- ing so safe and reliable for constipa- tion. liver and kidney troubles and es- pecially in all forms of skin disease as this remedy"
 At any rate people who are tired ot pills, cathartics and so-called blood purifiers" will find in Stuart's Calcium Waters. far safer. more palatable and affective preparatton.

New York. Oct. 29.-When Theodore Roosevelt as a candidate for governor lost the city of New York by more than S0.000 votes the Germans were largely against him., Today the majority of them are for him.
 They remembered him then mainly as the Police Commissioner who had so vigorously enforced the Sunday laws: today they admire him as much as they then opposed him. What is true of New York city Is largely tho case throughout the State as we'll as in the other three pre-eminently doubt full States, New Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana, in which the German vote has always been considered a factor.

Fire From Heavy Pressure.

 Yesterday morning the work of fill ing the immense coal bins over in the South and North shops in North Mont gomery was commenced, the great bins having all been emptied of coal by req son of a recent fire.
 About two years ago. 1t will be re- membered, there was fire in the big bins in which hundreds of dollars worth of coal was destroyed and lots of tim bers and other woodwork fin the chutes themselves burned so as to be utterly useless. That fire burned over a month before it could be controlled. all the coal in the chutes having to be emp tied before anything could be done with the smouldering fire. The recent fire while not as had as the one two years ago, was a pretty costly one it. self lots of timbers in the chutes be- ing burned and charred and great quan- titles of coal being destroyed.
 For a long time 1t has been a mystery as to the origin of these fires--they were not started by locomotives on tor of the ehutes for in every instance the fire has been located at almost the very bottom of the immense banks of coal A railroad man who has been inter- ested in this says that the reason of the fire breaking out at the bottom of SHO OohhS oi SpNi hS thO tSAtAhp PiSS- sure. In a pile of coal two or three feet high, he says. this pressure is not sufficient to cause spontaneous com bustion. In the great coal chutes of the Louisville and Nashville. sixty and seventy feet banks of solid coal, the pressure Is so immense that together with certain chemical properties in the coal itself spontaneous combustion is formed, and sometimes a fire is slowly eating into the heart of the coal for weeks before 1t Is discovered.

THE ROADS FUTURE
WHAT IS TO BECOME OF GRADING IN LOwNDEs.
Some Talk That seaboerd Air Line is to Get Pessession of Mpxganp-
 vile and Haynevil1e Road.

The clearing up of the Chadwick mystery is about as abstruse prob- lem as the ultimate destiny of little stretch of proposed railroad. eight and q half miles long.
 This little piece of property is pro- posed road from Morgasville. a station on the Mobile and Montgomery Dsvis- ion of the Louisville and Nashville, to Hayneville, the county seat of Lowndes County. It was projected over two years ago. the original plan being that when the road was graded and Fali iaid the Louisville and Nashville would op- ] crate it. The grading has been conn pleted, Mir, Pruitt. who had the con- tract, having finished his work. though he claims that about $1.S00 is still due him. It develops now that the Louis- vile and Nashville has fiatly refused to have anything to do with the opera tion of the road, and 1t is therefore up to the original promoters to complete it.
 Several times within the last few months MT. Blount, the man that built the Union Springs and Northern, has been to Hayneville conferriug with the gentlemen interested in the Hayneyille and Morgansvills Road. The Union Springs and Northern is virtually a Seaboard Air Line property running from Union Springs to Fort Davis on the line of the Seaboard and coming into Montgomery over that road. If MT. Biount Intends finishing the Hayneville road it Is pret- ty certain that the seaboard Air Line Is behind him.
 In that event the assertion of the Hayneville people that they intend
 building on iron, Morgansville to Mont gomery, sixteen miles, looks to be ex- plained.
 The seaboard gets into Montgomery now from Savannah and Is bottled up here. By getting the twenty-four and a half from Montgomery to Hayneville
 it would afford them an outlet. If
 this is the plan of the Seaboard peo- pie 1t certainly is not their intention to stop in Haynevilie and 1t looks as if their ultimate destination Is Mobile or some point near that port.
 At the present writing the little eight and half miles of road between Nor. lgansville and Hayneville is in . de- pressingly dormant condition, the grad. ing being the only, resemblance to a railroad. The Hayneville gentlemen continue to be confident and reiteratt their assertions about building tc Montgomery. Future developments
 will be watched with interest.

St. Paul Pioneer.
 No department of the national ad- ministration pays its way" quite so manfully as does the Department of Agriculture. Congress has recognized this fact in liberal appropriations. In the Bureau of Forestry alone, accord ing to Secretary Wilson's report, these appropriations have permitted in six years a sixteenfold increase in the working force and a twelvefold in- crease in expenditures. Yet a single discovery made by the bureau. and now applied to the production of turpentine, the total expenditure of the bureau for six years. The department Is the farm CTS Alladin's lamp.
