HimaIaya Baby's MONDAY Nap.

In certain parts of the Himalaya
mountains the native women have a
singular way of putting their children
to sleep in the middle Of the day. The
child is put near a stream Of water,
and by means of a palm leaf, or a tin
scoop, the water is DETECTED SO as to
run over the back of the child's head
The water pouring on the child's head
apparently SENDS to sleep and keeps
it so, while the mother proceeds with
her work in the fields. No one seems
ever to fear that baby may be drowned.

Election Officials Fined and Sentenced for
Contempt.

DENVER, Nov. 19.-Thomas Shephardson,
Peter Miller and Michael Dowd, Democratic
election officers, were adjudged guilty to-day by
the supreme court OF substituting ballots, and
sweating in election clerk wronnfuly, at
the recent election. Shephardson aud Miller
were fined 81 900 each and sentenced to one
year in Jail. Dowd was fined $3.50 and sem
fenced to Jail for sixty days.
The lights had been exiinguished at the poll
ing place where the men were officers, for
few minutes after the polls closed, and in that
period, it is alleged, the ballots were changed.
The men were brought before the supreme
court on charge of contempt, having disre.
earded instructions issued by the court as to
the conduct of the election. The court denied
to the three defendants permission to appeal to
the federal court.
Their attorneys ANNOUNCED that they would
take the case before the United States supreme
court oil the ground that the state supreme
court has no right to assume original jurisdic
ton in election cases, and send ncu to prison
without trial bv a jury. In all, twenty-seveu
men have been summoned before the suprsme
court for alleged offenses at the late election.

Missouri Building Burned.

Tho Missouri state building at the worlds
fair was destroyed by fire last Saturday night,
along with the contents of the building. Moth
ing was saved. The greatest loss, from an his
torical and sentimental stand point, was wrought
by the destruction OF the portraits Of the gov
e1nors of the state, which cannot be replaced.
They were priceless in their values as historical
relics.
The fire originated in the basement of the
building, and was caused by the explosion of
gas heater. There was no insurance on the
building OF its contents.
