ABOUT BRICK AGAIN
The Simple and Unfringed Question
Is. Why Not?

In recent issues the News, exclusively
of course, commented on the Importance
of getting a brick yard opened here.
We are in receipt of renewed inquiry in
the matter. This party wants to know
something of the probable demand.
He is an experienced brick man, favor
ably inclined. He asks a business cues
ton. Who will answer? Are you going
to build next spring? If so, about how
many bricks viii you want? This ought
to be easy to say, and if the concert of
answers will bring brick establish
ment, the answers ought to come at
once. Think about it, talk about it,
tell about it, and let US have another
business institution.

The Fox Hunters.

The fourth days trial of the Grafton
MiddIesex hounds for the 81, 900 a side
in the Piedmont Valley to capture rey-
nard's brush furnished good sport for
thirty-fve minutes yesterday. The
hounds, however, only succeeded 10 run
ming the fox to earth within a short dis
lance OF where be was gotten up.
The English hounds showed greater
speed than on any previous day, and
with hunting conditions almost perfect
the fox was given close run for his life.
Several of the field fell during the run,
but the only serious fall that occurred
was that which befell Mrs. Tom Peirce,
of Boston. Her hunter, the Champion,
in jumping a stone wall, overreached
himself, cut his tendons, aud gave Mrs.
PIERCE bad cropper. She fell on pile
OF stone and knocked out one OF her
front teeth. Her horse was so ably in
iured that he will never hunt again.
Mrs. PIERCE very gamely mounted a
green horse and continued the run,
which ended at Bald Hill woods, where
the fox had first been gotten up. The
meet today was at lula, on the road to
The Plains, where the Grafton hounds
we're hunted for the fourth time.

meut to Satan, erected by an ayowed in
fidel to show bis contempt for religion,
was the sight that greeted neighbors of
Herman Menu, a contracting stone-
mason, when they passed bis home in
Stentou avenue yesterday. Murmur-
ings of indignation are freely voiced, and
corrective measures are being discussed.
The monument is quite an elaborate
affair, about fourteen feet in height from
its foundation to its crown. Satan is
shown in STOPPING posture behind
pulpit. His Internal majesty is looking
over the landscape with fiendish stare,
with his horns protruding from the side
of his head. Carved 10 the stone direct
ly in front is the big, ugly fork with
which he is supposed to prod sinners in
the fire. The structure is built on the
lot line alongside the Menu home. Around
the neck of the statue when il was un-
yelled was a ribbon OF United States
flags. Menu explained this by staying

Mr. Hearst,s Contest .

New York, Nov. 9.-The contest of
w. r. Hearst for the nayorship is we'll
under way today and interesting and
important developments are FORE
casted. The Board of Elections, both
in Manhattan and Brooklyn, had
their hands full this morning receiving
the ballot boxes used in Tuesdays elec'
ton from the police. The ballot boxes
we're turned over on midnight order OF
Supreme Court Justice Gaynor, who
said significantly when he signed the
order "The police have nothing what
ever to do with the ballot boxes, and it
is most astounding that they should have
possession of them. They have no right
to even touch them" The order, which
was asked for by Col. AlexanderS. Bacon,
one of counsel for Mr. Hearst, required
the immediate delivery of the boxes con-
tanning the ballots and allowed until noon
today for the delivery to the county
clerk of the envelope containing all void
and protested ballots and tally sheets.
The fight by Mr.. Hearst will be waged
to the bitter end. He has engaged able
and eminent counsel, including Colonel
Alexander S. Bacon, who prosecuted
John Y. McKane, and sent him to
Sing Sing, for election frauds; Judge
Steckler, Judge Julius S. Cohen, Charles
II. Syde, and Day and Lord. If the
affidayits submitted by Hearst and
Jerome watchers are substantiated there
will be many criminal prosecutions. The
Hearst people have over 600 atfidavits
as to fraud and more will be taken to-
day, when several warrants for arrest
will be applied for. William wins,
republican nominee for Mayor, has Of
fered his services to Mr.. Hearst as coun-
sci. Clarence Shearn, counsel for Mr.
Hearst, offered Mr.. WINS q retainer,
which he declined to accept Scores OF
kilograms were sent to Mr.. Hearst, yes
terday, urging that he fight the case.
Wayne MacVeagh, former Attorney
General of the United States, and chief
legal advisor to Mayor Weaver of Phila-
delphia, in the reform movement in that
city, telegraphed message of support.
Mr.. Twins, the republican candidate for
mayor, says he thinks that Hearst was
elected. He said, "Tammany had, at
its command not less than a million dol
lars and believe that every purchase
able vote WAS purchased.

Resignation of Trepoff.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 9 --Oaicisl con-
frmation was given today to the report
that General Trepoff has resigned the
position OF Chief of Police of St. Peters
burg. Trepoff has the terrible record
for cruelty in suppressing disorders among
the people in Russia. He has not been
permitted to use his iron methods during
the present troubles, as the new govern
ment, under Count White, wished to pro-
pitiate the people by liberal and more
kindly means. Trepoff, il is believed,
chafed under the restrain placed on him,
aud has finally quit. There is general
satisfaction with this and the designations
of other high officials. 1t is the opinion
that this proves that the ascendancy of
Witte is secured and that be will now be
able 10 purify the government. The
modern liberals are more inclined daily
to support White. If he ful6lls the
hopes for universal sufiiage, they will be-
solid for him,

Mr.. Slemp's Defeat.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Richmond Journal says: Democrats in
Washington are jubiant over the defeat
administered to the republican ticket in
Virginia. The majority was unexpect-
edy large to them.
They regard il as the last link in the
discrediting of the Slemp leadership.
Republicans take similar view of it.
They say that Slemp has not done as
we'll as Park Agnew did foar years ago.
1t will probably change the patronage
question in Virginia.
Secretary Shaw was rather shocked
when he heard how badly the Slemp
leadership had lost out. When be
learned the real result this morning it
was with consideration chagriD. Not
only had the Slemps lost, but his own
.peechmaking tour had not shown up as
he expected it would.
Speaking of the result an Agnew-
Bowden republican said that it was no
surprise to him. "They have asserted
that Mr.. Agnew did not try to roll up
a good majority, and that he cared only
for the political fortunes OF coterie Of
friends and himself They have had a
trial now, and it shows distinctly to their
disadvantage.
ut gives the administration basis
upon which to compare the leadership
of Agnew and that Of the Slemps. We
voted the ticket aud worked Tor it but it
met with severe defeat. If there had been
any measure of victory the Slemps
would have claimed credit for it. Now
they must take the responsibility
