Lyons has a majority of the entire vote cast The vote in that coun- ty between Smith and Conner for presi- dent of the railroad commission is close, and 1t will take the official count tomor- row to determine who gets the county
 Returns tonight indicate the nomina- ton of Thomas S. Frazer of Union Springs for solicitor of the Third judicial circuit of Alabama over c. A. l.. Sanford of Opelika by a small majority. Sanford carried Lee. his home county, by ma jority of between 700 and 750 and Russell by a majority of 159.

 Columbus. Ga, April 12.-(Speclal.) 1.-The fact that H. c. Johnson has a wooden leg may give him the office of tax as- sessor In Lee county. Returns tonight from nearly all the precincts in the county show that w. T. Andrews and II. c. Johnson are leading out of the four candidates, Johnson being slightly ahead of the other. In Lee county 1t is required that a candidate shall have majority over all his opponents instead of mere plurality to be nominated un- less the other candidates voluntarily re- lease him from this rule Johnson hasn't a majority, although probably a plurali- ty, and w. T. Andrews, the next high est man, gallantly states that inasmuch as Johnson Is a one-legged Confederate veteran he will withdraw in his favor if he has even a small plurality.
 T. J. Stevens is leading in the race for tax collector of Lee, with several pre- clncts yet to be heard from. He will prob ably have a plurality but hardly ma jority. Inasmuch as Mir. Stevens Is S6 years of age the next highest candidate, Warren Williams, will hardly require a second primary, but will probably with draw in his favor.

LoWNDEs.

Lotohatchie. April -(Specia1)-Re- peated requests and efforts fair to elicit any information from the officers at Ha- neville as to the state and congressional vote. It looks very much as though this information Is being suppressed for some reason They are absolutely as dumb as oysters and refuse to tell anything. From unauthentic source there can be no doubt about Conner carrying the county by about 125 majority. Hefin and Catts will about tie the vote. Wood for probate judge, 150 majority over Brightman. Bricken will carry the county by about 200 majority. Nothing can be learned about supreme court judges until the of ficial count.

In an embowered stand, occupied by the im- perial party, including the press and high est ladies of the court, the emperor in the guards uniform viewed the splendid looking troopers in white tunices and burnshed curicasses and helmets.
 Those present remarked that the em- peror did not look as well as usual, and his voice, when he congratulated the regi- ment, lacked it's accustomed ring.
 The review concluded with the picture sque ceremony of salutng the colors, which occurred outside in full view of thousands of spectators.
 Troopers Form Hollow Square.
 The troopers formed a hollow square with sabres at the salute, and the band played the national anthem, while the standards were paraded before his ma jesty, the crowds revently doffed their hats. The troopers then proceeded to the refectory, where the emperor tasted their soup, drank their health and distributed a gratuity of s1 50 each to the non-com- missioned officers and 50 cents to the troopers
 Later the colonel and other officers of the regiment were banquetted In the winter palace.
 Detachments of each of the guard reg iments yesterday at the winter palace conveyed Easter greetings to the em- porer and the empress. The emperor kissed each of the guardsmen thrice, the empress giving her hand to be kissed and presented each guardsman with decor ated china egg. The servants of the palace were similarly honored.
