Danger of Pneumonia.

A cold at this time if neglected is
liable to cause pneumonia which is so
often fatal, and even when the patient
has recovered the lungs are weakened,
making them. peculiarly susceptible to
the development of consumption.
Foley's Honey and Tar will stop the
cough, heal and strengthen the lungs
and prevent pneumonia. For sale by

Tuesday night, after the By Joe
company had concluded its enter
tainment, Jehu Sylvester, who was in
charge of the hall for the G. A. r. post,
and the show manager had finished
making an equitable division of the re-
ceipt, and were having social chat
when a little boy, a member Of the
show, playfully snapped toy pistol in
Mr.. Sylvester's face, an explosion fol-
lowed and as result, Jehu is laid up at
home with an eye SO badly lacerated,
DIR. Wales, the attending physician, has
but little. hopes of saving its sight.
The pistol which did the damage con-
tanned nothing but blank shell and as
the little boy had repeatedly tried to
fire it he had no thought that it might
eventually explode. Once again is the
lesson pressed home: There is no wea.
pom so dangerous as the unloaded one
barring the toy pistol. Davis City

SENSATIONAL DEVEL-
MENTS IN NEW YORK.
Hearst Secures an Order for Imme-
diate Delivery of Ballot Boxes
to Election Commissioners.

New York, Nov. 9.-Sensational de-
veIopments followed rapidly this NOR
ming in the fight of VIM. r. Hearst
for the mayoralty. Having secured
last night an order from Justice Gay
nor of Brooklyn directing the police
department to deliver all election
boxes to the board of elections forth
with, the Hearst men lost no time in
dispatching fifty automobiles to the
various police stations for the boxes.
in most cases each lot of boxes were
guarded by five policemen, and the
street in front of the Office of the
election board soon became jammed.
President Voorhees,, of the board, re-
fused to open his Office in advance
of the regular time, nine O'Clock, and
the opinion was expressed that when
the Office opened it could not possibly
receive all of the 5000 boxes in the
city. This action was taken by Mr..
Hearst because of a rumor that the
city printing Office was running a
number of ballots, and it was feared
that the boxes would be stuffed while
they were in the hands of the police.
LATER Voorhees, re-
fused early this forenoon to receive
the official ballot boxes. He said that
the New York supreme court had
held in a recent decision that the
board of elections is not the proper
custodian of the boxes. but that the
police are.
President Voorhees, said that even
if a legal decision should be made
that his board must receive the bal
lot boxes. he would have them sent
under police guard to some storage
place other than his Office, which is
too small for the purpose. In Brook
lyn also the ballot boxes were not
accepted by the board of elections,
but the police were permitted to car
ry them into its room in the Temple
Bar building 1t is reported that ma
ny ballot boxes in Brooklyn were not
properly sealed.
