Washington. Nov. 9. - President
Roosevelt, after the election returns
clearly indicated the result, issued the
following statement:
II am deeply sensible of the honor
done me by the American people in
thus expressing their confidence in
what l have done and have tried to
do. l appreciate to the full the SOL
emn responsibility this confidence i'm
poses upon me, and 1 shall do all that
in my power lies not to forfeit 1t. On

served three and one-half years, and
this three and one-half years consti-
tutes my first term. The wise custom
which limits the president to two terms
regards the substance and not the
form, under no circumstances will /
be candidate or accept another nomi-
nation"

Wilmington. Del, Nov. 9.-Returns
at hand indicate that Roosevelt has
carried Delaware by about $500 ma

elected their entire state ticket by ma
jodities but little smaller.
Two-thirds of the districts in New
Castle county, where the largest DEM

Republican majority of 500. Kent
county's Republican majority will be
about 500. while the Republican ma

How Mexicans Test Eqqs.

1t is a common sight in the plaza
to behold stall woman, who is sell
ing two reals worth of eggs, pick them
up one by one, put one end and then
the other to her lips and hand them
over to the customer, who repeats the
same identical operation.
To the inexperienced onlooker it
seems as if they were tasting the ex-
tremities of the egg. AS a matter of
fact they never touch the egg with
the tongue.
The idea of the performance is
that when an egg is fresh one end is
distinctly colder than the other. The
end which has the air chamber is the
warmer of the two. The human lips
are exceedingly sensitive to heat and
cold, and even the novice at this form
of egg testing promptly becomes a
capable judge. If both ends of the egg
reveal the same temperature, that egg
may be counted as bad, as it is a
fairly good sign that the air chamber
is broken and the contents spread
equally within the shell.

osity from their kraals near by. 1 ex-

Kitten Aroused Dogs Jealousy.

A curious instance of dogs inteIli>
gent jealousy is reported from Llani-
shen.
A happy family there consisted of
lady, cat, a kitten, and a Yorkshire
terrier. All four were on excellent
terms until the terrier took umbrage
at attentions which it's mistress te-
slowed upon the kitten.
The terrier straightway began to
dig hole in the garden, and finished
it's task to its satisfaction in three
days.
Then the kitten disappeared. A
search was made, and as the terrier
was seen patting down the earth over
the hole which it had refi1led, the soil
was removed, and the kitten was
found to have been buried alive.
The dog was punished, but it took
the kitten to the grave again, and the
following day took it to a ditch and
left it there.-London Daily Express

MusseIs Found in Old Wall.

While workmen were demolishing
an old wall between Hill street and
Hunter street, Kirkcaldy, Scotland,
the other day, they found two live
mussels in the center of the wall, and
at a part about two feet above the
ground. One of the shell-fish was
pierced by a pick, but the other was
preserved intact. The wall is sup
posed to be about a hundred years
old, and was in excellent preserva-
ton. The wall is not near the shore,
and no holes were observed whereby
the mussels, which were fully two
inches long, could have got into the
building.
