PROCTOR ELECTED GOVERNOR.
Vermont Carried by Son of the Senator
With Big Majority.

MONTPELIER, VT, September g.
Fletcher D. Proctor Of Proctor, son of
United States Senator Redfeld Proctor was
elected governor of Vermont today by a
large majority. The republican organiza-
ton at 10 o'clock tonight asserted that his
plurality over Percival w. Clement of Rut-
land, the Independent and democratic can
didate, would exceed $4,000. The normal
republican plurality in Vermont is about
q 600.
Scattered returns received from the two
congressional districts of the state indicate
that Representative Ravid J. Foster of Bur-
Angton (republican) has been reelected in
the first district by a large majority, and
that Representative David J. Foster Of Bur-
marlborough (republcan) has been re-
turned from the second by the usual large
vote.
Returns from 100 towns out of 246 show
that the legislature will be overwhelming
ly republican. Up to 10 pm. it was known
dependents were elected. The same towns
gave a total of 1866 for Proctor and 1875
for Clement. AS the contest two years ago
was a straight one between the two old
parties, no comparison can be made with
the vote cast at that time. Four years ago,
when John G. Mccullough, the regular re-
publican candidate for governor. was op-
posed by Clement, Independent republican
and Felix W. McGettrick of st. Adams,
the republican vote In those
towns was 1851. That for Clement was
S,IS1 ana McSIettr1Ck 2,040. IhlS comparison
shows a gain today for Proctor of 1884
and loss for Clement of 415.
Clement carried the city of Burlington to-
day by plurality Of POT. falling OF In
his vote four years ago, and he carried
Rutland, his home city, by 386 plurality. He
also carried Montpelier. S74 to 681.
National issues did not figure In the con-
test to any extent.
Complete returns from yesterdays state
election show that Fletcher D. Proctor of
Proctor (republican) was elected governor
by 1876 over Percival w. Clement of Rut-
land Independent and democratic).
The vote: Proctor, ~. 100; Clement, &c, 474;
scattering, 1000.
The remainder Of the republican state
ticket was successful by pluralities about
equal to that received by Proctor. The re-
publicans carried every county In the state
except Bennington, and the party leaders
claim that county by small margin.
The republicans gained over 10000 votes
over the number four years ago and
Clement lost 1880. The prohibition loss was
proportionately greater.
Congressman David J. Foster of Burling-
ton and Kittredge Haskins of Brattleboro,
both republicans, were elected by majorities
greater than those they received two years
ago. The lower branch of the legislature Is
Overwhelmingly republican and all the
members of the senate belong to that party.
The republicans elected their entire state
ticket by pluralities approaching that OF
Governor-elect Proctor.

TOURISTS ARE DISAPPOINTED.
Visitors to the City Are Barred From
the White House,

Visitors to the city continue to express
regret that the White House remains
closed. The building has been barred to
visitors ever since the President and his
family went away, about July 1. This
is due to the fact that repairs are going
on throughout the building, as heretofore
stated in The Star. Workmen are now en-
gagged in placing marble slabs on the front.
or north, portico, so as to get down a new
floor before the President and his family
return to Washington. about the LIST Of
October The old floor had worn a good
deal in recent years, and it was considered
desirable to replace it. The new floor will
take the place of one over which thousands,
probably millions, of persons have passed.

The disabling of the tug Bartholdi at
the races at Georgetown Monday last
threatened to stop the ferry service be-
tween this city and the new steel plant in
process of erection at Geisboro Point, but
Mr.. Charles Heath has secured the services
of the little steamer Runaway, belonging
to Mr.. Joseph Moore of Alexandria, for
the route and she went into service yester-
day. The Bartholdi will. it is stated, be
hauled out on the marine railway in a few
days, and it is understood that only a few
hours work will be required to repair the
broken rudder. For the transportat ton of
the hundred or more wokmen employed in
the construction of the buildings for the
big steel plant, the Bartho' di has for the
past two, or three months been making
trips between this city and the steel plant
wharf. The steamer will probably be able
to return to service in the latter part of the
week.

THREE FACTS
For Sick Women
 To Consider

FRsT.-That almost every operation in our hospitals performed upon women becomes necessary through neglect of such symptoms as backache, irregular and painful periods, displacements of the female organs, pain in the side, burning sensation in the stomach. bearing-down pains, nervousness, dig ziness and sleeplessness.
 SECOND medicine that holds the record for the largest number of absolute cures of female ills is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can.
 For thirty years it has been helping women to be strong, curing baclkache, nervousness, kidney troubles, infiam- nation of the female organs, weak ness and displacements, regulating the periods perfectly and overcoming their pains. It has also proved itself invaluable in preparing women for childbirth and the change of life.
 THIRD.-The great volume of unso- hcited and grateful testimonials on file at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn. Mass, many of which are from time to time published by permission, give ab- soluUe evidence of the value of Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
 Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation toW oWOmen.--WOmen suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. From symptoms given, your trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years under her direction and since her decease she has been ad- vising sick women free of charge. Outof the vast volume of experience in treat ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably has the very knowledge that will help your case. Surely, any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she doesnot take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.

TRAGIC TALE
 OF TUESDAY
Not All in But Enough
 of Ii
Republicans Gather Com fort From a Majority of the Council.

Few additional returns from the ter ritorial election were received yester- but enough is known to show that. Smiths majority will reach beyond 2OOO.
 It is also known that the republicans have elected seven of the twelve mem bers of the council, Hogue of Apache Socket of Coconino, Cleveland of Gra- ham, Miller of Navajo. Dickerman Of Pima and Santa Cruz, Dorran of Yava- pal and Mcintyre of Yuma. The demo crats have no doubt a large majority in the assembly. They are claiming V itFOut definite information sixteen of the twenty-four members.
 The returns so far indicate that the vote for joint statehood will not ex- ceed ten per cent. In Gila county it is only abou five per cent and in none of the counties where a large vote was cast except Pima will it run above ten per cent.
 No reliable figures are OottiEable from New Mexico. The claims of from 40OO to 1000 for joint statehood are evidently mere guess work as is shown by the first high estimated majority for Andrews dwindling to minority.

FESTIVE STUDENTS Fl OF TIE UNIVERSITY
hey Nearly Wreck the Buildings of The University in the Course of a Joke.

Tucson, Nov S.-(SpeciaD - Some University students this morning inn pefiled the lives of the inmates of the girs' dormitOry by fool joke. About thf lee o'clock the town and surrounding cOpntry were awakened by an explo- sion which it was thought was the blowing up of a locomotive in the Southern Pacific yards.
 An investigation showed that the Diversity cannon had been exploded. The piece had been drawn up within twsnty yards of the girls dOrmitOry, ana having been evidently loaded to he muZzle was discharged. The win iONs of the dormitOry on that side lyere all blown in and the cannon was spit in two. One piece weighing two hundred pounds was thrown over the iOrmitOry and over the mems dormi- oEy and was carried 400 yards beyond.
 The force of the explosion was so great that all the buildings within a quarter Of a mile were rocked. The sirls in the dOrmitOry were thrown into nt of terror. It is surmised that the

cannon was touched off by means of a long fuse. /
 President Babcock of the University at once began an investigation. It is said that he has already learned the names of some of the students engaged in the affair, but they have not yet been made public. It is the purpose of the University authorities to prose cute them vigorously.
 The cannon was a three-inch field piece of old pattern, which was dis placed by the adoption of the modern breech loaders.
