RESULT or ELECTION.
Republican Plurality Greatly Reduced
In State of Maine.

Portland, Me, Sept. 1.-THE result
OF the election in this state Monday
when the Republican plurality for gov,
ernor, which usually approximates 25.-
o0o was reduced to about 5000 while
at the same time the total vote was
greatly increased over the figures of
Iour years, is attributed by the lead
oers Of both the republican and dem
0cratlc parties to popular feeling over
the prohibition laws Although the
republicans reelected Governor Will
liam T. Cobb and all the four con-
greSsmen of the state and will have
working control of the state legis-
Iature, the pluralities were SO gener-
ally reduced as to occasion surprise
In many quarters.
Both Governor Cobb and CONGRESS-
man Llttlefield, IN whose district the
most vigorous battle of the campaign
was Wagei, are of the opinion that the
Sturgis law, providing for the enforce
ment OF the existing prohibitiory law
by state liquor deputies, was the lead.
Ing factor in the result.
Inc Democrats made re-submittion
OF the liquor prohibitory amendment
10 the people a part of their plat
form, while the republicans stood
squarely for endorsement of the pro-
hibitory plan and its strict enforce
ment, The result was evident in the
cities, the Democrats carrying all of
the Il municipalities of the state with
the exception of four of the smaller
ones The vote of the country dis
tricts, however, where the re-submis
sion idea has never gained any notice
able following, more than offset the
democratic gains in the cities.
In the second district congressional
where Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor.
conducted a vigorous campaign to de-
feat Congressman Littlefeld. Mr..
Lttletield's majority was reduced from
that of four yeaN ago by several
thousand votes. The congressman
attributes the result not to the cam
palgn against him, but to the general
sentiment regarding he Shlrgis law.

The Perverse Golf Ball.

A collector of evidence on the subject
maintains learnedly that the golf ball
is the most perverse Of human insti-
tutions Here is a list of strange lies
noted by a follower of the ancient
game: In another players pocket
where it had dropped after travelling
200 yards; in cows mouth on the
roof Of a clubhouse; behind the glass
protecting a painting hanging on a
cottage wall; in clump of daisies,
which it SO resembled that it was not
found for an hour. When it fell in the
cows mouth the frightened animal
galloped 276 yards nearer the hole and
then restored the ball to its owner. He
promptly claimed to have driven it 397
yards and the right to play it from
where it lay.

Old Time Actor Found Dyfno.

Douglassville, Ga, Sept. 11.-Louis
F. Barrett, who claims to be an actor,
was found on the streets here in what
was thought to be dying condition,
but later it developed that he only
had a fit. Barrett claims to have
been present when President Lincoln
was shot and says he was playing in
the theater on that occasion. He
says he has playein Atlanta, when
there wa sonly one playhouse in the
city, the old DeGixe opera house.
Barrett may have once been a star,
but is considerably on the ragged
edge now.

detail of policemen was necessary to

promply met and the institution is
regarded as one of tue strongest insti.

ENCOURAGING REPORT.
On the determination of Yellow Fe.
xer Is Given Out


New Orleans, Sept. 11.-One of the
most encouraging reports of the pres
ent summer to exterminate yellow fe-
yer was given out Tuesday by Juan
j. Fernandez, consul general here of
the Republic of Honduras.
IT indicates that tropical countries
from which it has been charged yellow
fever infection has in the past been
transmitted to the southern part O.
the United States, are successfully rid
ing their territories of this disease.
In Honduras, with an American sur
geon in charge precautions have been
carried to extremes. Houses Of the
very poor in some cases. have been
burned to destroy filth and new houses
have been supplied in their places.
Frequently the clothing worn bv
beggars has been burned, better and
cleaner clothing being given to these
untortunates. Working on the mos
quito theory Of yellow fever infection
c1sterns have been screened and sui
phur has been burned in doors and
petroleum spread over the surface Of
stagnant water. Weeds have been
cut in great quantities. AS a result
during the last two months in COM
munittes where last year fifty or more
cases Of yellow fever were reported
not one case has been reported during
