In the 11th District, which Fred Lands car
ried two years ago by 5000 majority. and in the
sth which George W. Crorner carried by 1000
votes, there were big losses. and the elections OF
both are in doubt but the chances favor them.
Wabash County, in the 11th. gave Democratic
majority to-day for the first time in its history.

AIarettes in Fashionable London.

In view of Queen Alexandra's pro-
nouncement against the so-called
aigrette, it seemed interesting to as
certain whether aigrettes were ceasing
to appear upon the hats displayed in
milliner's windows. Three rounds OF
inspection were made, the first along
the north side of Oxford street, the
second down the east side of Bond
street, the third from the northeastern
point of Langham place down Regent
street to Piccadilly circus, says the
London Daily News.
Two persons were engaged in the
expedition, one of whom numbered all
the hats exhibited, the other all The
~aigrettes. Among aigrettes were in
cluded birds of paradise (aboutd half a
dozen), some two or three plumes be-
lieved to be, like the aigrette, nuptial
adornments, and one consisting appar-
emily of the tail feathers of the Tyre
bird. No other feathers were reck-
oned in.
In spite of the queens express dis.
approval, there were counted in three
London thoroughfares alone no less
than 1913 aigrettes, exposed for sale in
hats and bonnets, and this besides
large numbers lying not yet applied tc
hats, and numbers yet larger paraded
~shamelessly on human heads.

HoIdinq Down Natures Forces.

Less than 500 feet beneath the sur
face of the earth at Punta Gorda there
is a power or force capable of lifting
a column of water eight inches in d.
ameter to a height Of eleven feet above
the surface.
AS this prodigious subterranean
force has been stored beneath the sur
face for 1000 years or more and has
never in all the time burst forth to
overwhelm the land there is not the
slightest danger that it will do SO at
this date, especially as we are contin-
ually piling tons of weight on top of it
to help hold it down. More than a
thousand people and several hundred
buildings, to say nothing of as many
cattle and dogs. have been added to
the surface weight since this immense
power was first stored in the caverns
below.

men in the business. but the company
had faith enough il the young widow
to give her a trial in her husbands

So successful has she been, not only
holding all Of the old business but
getting many new customers, that she
now has the position permanently at
a largely increased salary. Mrs. Mil
