THE COSMOS CLUB

With its present season the Cosmos
enters upon its twenty year, and un-
der conditions that promise prosper
GUS future. The continued vitality of the
Club, in our constantly changing COM
munity, seems to be the best proof of the
need of such an organization.
During the twenty years that have
passed there has been much work in
the Club that has been not only pleas
urable. but instructive and helpful. The
meetings and dinners. with their social
features, have been of more than pass
ing interest, and among the speakers
who have addressed the Club from time
to time have been men of national repu-

law, finance and the Industrial world.

race by automobiles, arriving at the
point of descent in this city with his
car not only within the time limit fixed
by the racing committee, but in time
to assist in dragging the balloon to the

Mr.. Bishop had a thirty five horse
power automobile and managed to
keep within sight of the balloon
Torrent practically throughout all of
the race. In this he was favored by
the fact that the wind was very light
and shifty, so that the balloon Travelled
very slowly and at times seemed to
make no progress whatever, while at
other times 1t fosted back nearly over
the course previously trayersed.

following statement:
.'The election of 1906 Indicates a

policies are developed. In New York
the party has won signal victory In
spite of the tremendous efforts put
forth in behalf of the administration.
The Republicans had all the money
they wanted, they had the support of
all the great corporations, and at the
close they had whatever influence the
administration could lend
"The fact that the Democrats elect

the Republican party has been repudi-
ated. The defeat of Mr.. Hearst, the
Democratic and Independence league

disappointment to his friends and to
the party, is explained by facts which
rob Mr. Hughes victory of both glory
and political significance.
President Roosevelt Criticised. ~
president Roosevelt cannot find
very much cause for rejoicing in the
New York returns. To have his own

New York, Nov. 10-Revised returns
from number of mp state counties
cut down the plurality of Lewis Stuy-

Republican managers that the official
canvass next Tuesday will further re-
duce these figures and elect M. Linn
Bruce.
At one time Mr.. Chanler's plurality
was down to ey1. This was caused by
the receipt of correct returns from
several counties and by partially esti-
mating the returns from counties not
yet heard >from The official returns
received late in the day from Erie
county, however, added 1856 to his pre-
vious figures. The election of Demo-
