cate a plurality of about $4,000 for
Hughes above the Bronx. This would
make his plurality in the state about
10000. Hearsts total plurality in
Greater New York, as indicated by
the unofficial returns, was 1886. Mr..
Hearst also polled GAL plurality in two
UP state counties.
M. Linn Bruce, the Republican can
didate for lieutenant governor, seems
to have been elected over Lewis Stuy-
vesant Chanler, Democratic and Inde-
pendence league nominee. The COM
plete returns have been received from
only eighteen counties outside of
Greater New York OF these twelve

Hughes, placing him about $500 votes
ahead of his ticket. In the six coun-

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 3.-While
the Republicans suffered loss in
majority at the election in substantial
returns they have achieved a greater
victory than ever. The majority for

the Republicans have elected their
county ticket in each of the three

gains are decisive. On Joint ballot the

MIRAGE SEEN AT THE
ROCK ISLAND HOUSE
Simple Enough When Explained, But
1t Mystified Those Who First
Noticed 1t.

Several gentlemen looking out of
the south window in the lobby of the
Rock Island house this morning saw
TO their surprise two or three stories
of the Mitchell & Lynde building rest
ing securely on top of the Bengston
block. At first nobody had the cour-
age TO mention what he had noticed.
Conversation which had been flourish
ing suddenly Jagged and members of
the group were observed TO rise from
their chairs and move about uneasily,
taking now and then a furtive glance
out of the window. One or two disap-
peared behind the elevator shaft 9th
ers went TO assure themselves that the
Mitchell & Lynde building was still in
its accustomed place. The suspense
became painful and there might have
been serious consequences had not
Olof Atkinson tactfully broken the
spell Then all went for another look.
1T was surely there The outline of the
top of the building was plainly
to be seen high in midair Even the
gold lettered signs on the windows
could be read. only they were reversed,
as was the entire building.
1t was clearly a mirage, visible when
the sun was not shining. and equally
wonderful was the further undisputed
fact that there was no water. in a body
or otherwise. that could be responsible
for it, Half an hour was spent in dis
cussing the phenomena of mirages and
possible solutions for the one visible
over the BengstOn block, but the mys-
terry continued to grow.
Finally an outsider dropped in and
discovered that two windows figured
in the delusion. The light passed
through from the east window and was
partly reflected to those in the hotel
by the south windows, which were
backed by a leaden sky, showing dim
and shadowy outline of the Mitchell &
Lynde block The same thing is prob
ably visible on any cloudy day, though
it seems nobody had noticed it before.
1t is in reality a mirage, the same prin-
ciples being applied as those which in
places result in distant landscapes be
ing shown on the clouds.

Not q Business Man.

That Chicago lawyer who got hold OF
John Alexander Dowie, once an apostle
in Zion. on cross examination prompt
ly proceeded to show there was and is
something wrong with him. They tell
that Dowie is smart as a business man
but that lawyer found him an easy
proposition.
Dowie told of time when his body
and soul got separated and he stood off
and looked at his mortal remains. That
was IN Australia, at time when Dowie
was fighting the liquor traffic. We in
this part of the world put that story
just a trife differently. When a man

Senator German and His Successor.

Up to the time his fatal illness over
took him. Senator German of Mary
land was fond of recalling the days
when he was captain of and played
right field with the old National base
ball club of Washington. His activity
and energy as an athlete attracted the
attention of President Johnson. who
offered him the collectorship of the
Fifth Maryland district The young
fellow hesitated. feeling reluctant TO
abandon his favOrite pastime just then,
whereupon the president offered to
hold the place for him until the sea
son closed German accepted CRATE
fully. and thus it was that his ability
as a baseball player won him his first
good political appointment.
As was to be expected. William
Pinckney Whyte, the venerable success
sor of Senator German. has made a
most favorable impression on his col
leagues. Dressed faultlessly and with
his courtly bearing, fine burgundy COM
plexion. and snow white hair, he at
tracts much attention. One of the best
things said of him during his first day
came from a small towheaded page.
Il hear the Maryland fellows call him
Pink Whyte,' said the lad. land his
complexion and hair are right up even
with his name"

He Forgot Ii.

While Representative Dalzell of
Pennsylvania was delivering a tariff
speech in the house he was interro-
gated by Representative Underwood
of Alabama. The following is taken
from the New York Herald's report:
"'Can you name said Underwood,
d place in the world where steel rails
are produced at less cost than in
Pittsburgh
81 think not said DalZell.
Then can YOU name a place in the
world where pig iron is produced as
cheaply as il is in Pittsburgh said I'm
derwoOd.
81 think not, said Dalzell.
Then persisted Underwood, why
should the country put a protective
tariff upon either steel rails or pig
iron?'
II will come to that later in my
speech said DalZell.
But he never did come TO it,
Yet in the same speech Mr.. Dalzell
said that the republicans would well
come the tariff issue in the republican
congressional campaign.

How to Break Up a Cold.

1t may be a surprise to many tc
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up in one or two days
time. The first symptoms of cold
are a dry, loud cough, profuse watery
discharge from the nose, and thin
white coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken
every hour on the first appearance OF
these symptoms, it counteracts the eff
feet of the cold and restores the sys
tenn to healthy condition within a
day or two. For sale by all leading

THAT THERE is need for more care and
attention in the matter of drawing jurors
in this county is certain. Scarcely court
convenes but there is a chance to show
defect In the list from which trial jurors
are drawn. In the last list there were the
names of two persons who did not, at the
time they were summoned. reside in this
county. The manner In which one sum-
mons was served by the constable would
be intereting reading The law requires
list of names to be kept at the Office of
the sheriff, and it must be renewed and
revised at intervals. How often this law
is complied with is known only to the
officials, but the errors which frequently
come to the surface lead to the impression
that the revision" is not frequent.
Fortunately the condition of the present
panel did not create any hardship or cause
any unnecessary delay, but that was more
good fortune than good management.
With the public feeling as it was on the
murder case just closed it would not have
interpose any objection that would cause
delay, but if the case had been one where
doubt could have been raised on the
guilt of the prisoner there is little dis
pute about what would have been the
result. A new panel would have
been ordered. Practically the colored
man accused of murder did not have
a legal trial. as he was entitled
to be served with a list of jurors
qualified to try his case, and that list must
consist of 48 residents of the county in
which the trial is to take place Such
list was not served on him because it was
not in existence. The argument that ''it
did not matter and it would have entailed
expense to get legal jury" will not do.

The watehword of Women.

Modesty is womans watchword. What
ever threatens her delicate sense of mod
esty. frightens her. For this reason many
a woman permits diseases of the delicate
womanly organs to become aggravated
because she cannot bring herself to sub
NIT to the ordeal of unpleasant question
ings, offensive examinations, and obnox-
ious local treatments, which some physi
clans find necessary. Doubtless thous-
ands of the women who have taken advan-
tage of DR.. Pierce's offer of free consul
tation by letter, have been led to do so by
the escape thus offered from a treatment
repugnant to modesty. Any sick woman
may write to DR.. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y,

treated as strictly private and sacredly
confidential, and all answers being sent in

anything to stand in the jury system is
all wrong. If the law which requires
jurors to be residents of the county they
must serve is to be a dead letter. and is of
no account, why not draw at each term a
dozen non-residentss That would save
$24 per day and would leave SO names
from which to draw. If the law means
anything it means what it says and some
body should make it duty to see that the
statute is observed and that jurors are moi
drawn In slipshod manner.
