GEER
SHOWS
GAINS

Tho O-eeouian this morning says:
O6eial returns thus far received at
.he oA;ee Of the secretary Of state re-
.,,ce the supposed plurality of Dr..
lanes wi,hveombe over T. t. Geer BY
loo. In the published returns Witty
oo-,bs was credited with 15s in Grant
.o,-tv whereas the official returns last
Wednesday showed Withyeombe 500
ahead. with Crook. Harney and Nal
bap- not heard from. The later unof-
fetal returns from Crook gave Geer is
more. while Malheur gave him 81, or
100 net gain, reducing the plurality Of
Wi.bvcombe to 400. The discovery Of
the error of 100 knocks of that amount
from withyeOmbe's plurality and
leaves him a margin of only 500. Har-
nev county gave Geer 81 and Witty
eorbe 40, thus cutting his plurality to
2s3.
Tie counties from which official re-
turns have not been received by the
secretary Of state are Coos, Crook, Cur
". Lake. Harney, klamath, Malheur
and Marion. There is, Of course, the
possibility that the unofficial returns
contain other errors. for many Of the
reports passed through several hands
and were repeated over long distance
telephones. SO that there were oppor-
tunities in plenty for some one TO read
a number incorrectly or misunderstood
il when read TO him. However that
may be. it Is apparent that Geer has
rur Withyeombe a very close race for
the nomination for governor.

STATE ALLOWS $50
Patrick Moriarty May Cei Award : for Locating His Own Chickens

The state allows a reward of $50 for the conviction of a chicken thief. About Thanksgiving dozen or more inc chicken were stolen from Pat TICK Moriarty's coop on Baldwin street. MT Moriarty identified the stolen birds in the window of Car rett Sayerss saloon on Baldwin street. Savers had bought thom from Patrick Shea for 50 cents apiece and told MOrlarty so. Lat was poor con solation for Moriarty, but 1t was the best Savers could give him however. Shea was arrested and found guilty and fined in the city court and this morning Attorney Lynch. as repre- sentative for Moriarty, presented to Judge Burpee in the City court s claim for the reward. Judge Burpee told him to draw up an order. Mr Lynch will claim the full amount, $50, for his client. Sayers finally gave back all of the chickens he had, twelve, which amounted to $6. He had also to retain a lawyer. Moriar- ty Is still "out'' eighteen chickens, but If his request for the reward shall be allowed he will be fully com pensated.

SHOD HIS OWN HORSE
John Moore Did Not Walt His
 Turn al Blacksmith Shop.

' /
 John Moore. dealer in fish and meat on Cherry street. felt the bens- fits of versatality yesterday. Before he went into the meat and hsh busi- ness MT Moore was blacksmith. That was some time ago, long enough. 1t would seem. for some per- sons to forget the tricks of his trade. But not 50 w:'h Mir Moore.
 Yesterday he saw to his displeas- ure that his horses shoes needed sharpening, and down to the black smith he drove. his horse slipping the greater part of tho way. There was a long line of horses awaiting to be attended to and the fish and meat man thought he had patience enough to keep him until the blacksmith would get to his horse, but he found he had not, and rather than wait any longer he took of his coat, put on leather apron. stuck bar of iron in the fire, got the bellows blowing on 1t and in short time the meat and fish man was blacksmith again and had his horse shod before the other men were half up the line of waiting horses.

SANTA CLAUS IN EVIDENCE.
Merchants Windows Have Now Put
 on Their Holiday Attire.

The stores are ready for the Christmas display and from now on it will be quite treat for youngsters to come into the center and see the sights. Some say that 1t doesn't pay a house to go to the trouble of fixing up a window. but this is great mis- take. Why. if something of this kind was not done many wouldn't know 1t was the Christmas time at all. The old folks may laugh at him as much as they please. but santa Claus has just as much charm for boys and girls now as ever and anybody who does not think SO and wants to be convinced of his error needs but hur- " backward to the days of his ju. venility and see for himself. What a sprinting match thore would he if such q thing were possible! Egad, as John O'Neill says when he does not care to use any other expression. the number of entries would be so large there never was a book large enough to hold them. Many would want to go and probably when they got there all would not care to make the return trip.

CITY NEWS

In the Sacred Heart chapel to-mor-
 row evening, at 730. there will be a
 meeting of the married and single
 ladies Of Sacred Heart parish, who
 are interested in the five nights en-
 tertainment, which will he held in
 Sacred Heart school building, during
 the Christmas holidays. The men of
 the parish held their meeting last
 Sunday and elected Henry Burns
 chairman of the mems committees.
 Burt Miller. the legless wonder, who has been giving the state police much annoyance, was jailed at South bury on Monday. Miller was caught in Danbury last week, driving a wagon which he had stolen oif a car at Noroton. The wagon was also laden with goods which Miller had stolen in Morris. It was thought that the wagon, which had been taken from car during the night. had been carried on by five or six men. but it was discovered later that Miller was the man who took it, although 1t is thought he must have had accom- plices.
 The department of charities is preparing special Christmas menu for the inmates at the Brookside home. They can afford 1t for 1t ap- pears that more money Is left over in that department this year than ever before. If this be due to lack of demand for assistance during the year, all right, but on the other hand if it Is the result of an economy which denied deserving applicants of what the public was willing they should have received then 1t Is an- other matter. But 1t is only fair to assume that nobody was neglected and that the balance on hand is the result of better times and fewer call CTS. In any case the big Christmas dinner is a proper thing.
 Attorney c. G. Root. whose law of- fees were endangered by fire in the basement of the U. C. l. Co.'S offices says he will ask for an investigation of the matter. He said that any fire that takes place at such an hour ought to be investigated. There was in the basement of the Gas offices thnt could have caused fire at that hour, so far as he has been able to ascertain. He Is positive it was not the heat from the furnace, or boiler, for when the jaut- tor does not give the tenements sutii. cient heat in the day. 1t would indeed be strange If he turned on the radia- tors full blast when there was no need for so doing. This is the third time Attorney Root has been through the fire. The first time was In the original Platt building on East Main street. His second trip he was tenant on Grand street the time of the big fire and this morning was his third experience. In this he lost nothing to speak of. hut. neverthe- less. he says the fire ought to be ln-

Bangor. Me, Dec 12.-Lumber shipments from Bangor by water this season aggregate about 100.000,0o0 feet. Ia readiness for the spring market the largest stock of logs for twenty years will be wintered here and along the Penobscot river. the amount spproximating 4o.0o0.ooe feet.

About 45.o0o.0o0 feet of lum- Der have been shipped from that place this season. Freights to New York and Boston have been high all season. Spruce has had a good de- mznd with prices not quite up to last years.
