White River Junction, VT, Sept. Z.
With only two small towns missing

Yesterdays election is believed to
lie within a few votes of the correct
figures. Four years ago, it was 3D.

The next legislature will be more
completely controlled by the republi-
cans that for many years. The re-
turns from 271 towns show that the
senate will be solidly republican,
where last year there were five dem
ocrats. Returns for the House show
1856 republicans, thirty democrats,
three independents and two citizen
members. Last year the democrats
Lad fifty members in the House.

Sailors Knot Held Firm.

A Snowman in one of the Belfast
tIreland) markets found himself in
rather curious contretemps the
other evening, and though highly
amusing to his audience the fix he
got into was very embarrassing to
himself. He was offering to allow
anyone to tie him up and he would
undo himself, when along came a
blue jacket and bound him as only a
sailor can, with the result that try as
he might he could not get free. Be-
ing thirsty, the sailor informed his
captive that he was going for a
drink" and would return in the course
of half an hour, to which promise he
faithfully adhered, but on his reap
aearance the Snowman was still in
bondage. At this stage the seaman
discovered he was needed elsewhere
and left his victim, who. ultimately.

The White Elephant Of Siam.

Siam remains the only Independent
Buddhist state in the world. While
in China and Japan the majority of
the people adhere TO the same faith,
their rulers conform to other philoso-
phies, IL not religions. But the King
of Siam is at one with his people in
this respect, and Buddhism, therefore.
is omnipresent.
Because it Is believed that Buddha,
In his innumerable incarnations, was
pleased to remain longer in white
elephant than in any other creature,
so it became the symbol of sacred ma
jesty on the Siamese national flag
and upon their seals and coinage. For
the same reason, both in the flesh anu
in images Of bronze and stone SO
often met with, the white elephant is
vencrated as a saint. Not that there
ever has been seen such beast as a
truly white elephant, but as he is oc.
casionally found, spotted, or of light
coffee color, he represents to the
Siamese what the white bullock does
to the Hindu.

Murderer Was Superstitious.


Superstition has led to the arrest
and confession of murderer at Sye-
kolas, near Temesvar, AustriaHun-
gary. The man, who was a peasant,
was seen by a policeman kneeling at
the grave Of forester who had been
murdered by an unknown hand. Next
night the policeman watched again,
but the peasant did not appear. A
nightly vigil was kept. and on the
night of the next full moon the man
was seen again kneeling by the
grave. Knowing the superstitions of
the country, the officer arrested the
peasant and charged. him with the
murder The man instantly con.
fessed, and said that he came to beg
the forester's spirit for forgiveness
every full moon, as that was the
time when the spirits walk abroad.
He was tried and condemned to ten
years hard labor and the policeman
received $500 reward offered by the
forester's employer for the discovery
of the murderer.
