Election IN HYDE Park

Never before in the history of this town
has there been more quiet and peace
able election than that of yesterday. 1t
was generally conceded that so long as
there were but two contestants for Rep
resentative, the vote would be below the
average, and that there would be no
special excitement.
When the polls opened at ten o'clock
there were less than dozen voters in
the hall. Town Clerk Wood was in his
accustomed place, with Geo. Randall and
Will Davis as ballot clerks. AS Constable
Campbell was candidate for office, his
place in charge of she ballot boxes was
taken by Selectman Wedge. At no time
during the day was there a rush and the
| officials therefore mad an easy time of it.
At precisely three o'clock the Repre-
sentative box was turned" and in a few
minutes the result was announced. It was

USEFUL HINTS TO HOUSE.
 KEEPERS.

COAT of Natural Jap-a-lac applied over old or new linoleum or oilcloth will double its life, by preserving the original coat of varnish which would otherwise soon be washed or worn off.
 WEATHER BEATEN front doors are revived and beautified when coated with Jap-a-lac, and 'newness follows the brush." It is best to use the color nearest that of the old finish.
 WINDOW and DOOR screens should be coated with Jap-a-lac each spring, using the Brilliant Black on the wire, and the Mahogany, Oak, Cherry or Walnut On the frames. It gives them new life and the wire cloth is protected from rust.
 PORCH FURNITURE should be ppO- tected and beautified each spring with Jap-a-lac. It is best to use the color of the old finish; but if you wish to change the color, use Red or Green Jap-a-lac.
 WICKER FURNITURE coated with undHOSduy, OA-DlOOu Ilcu, Green or Gloss White Jap-a-lac looks better than new.
 WATER PIPES, furnace fronts, radi- ators, hot water tanks and iron fences are preserved and beautified with the use of Jap-a-lac. Use the Gold, Alum mum, Dead Black or Brilliant Black.
 
 PICTURE FRAMES, candelabra, gas fixtures, lamps, etc., given a coat of Gold, Aluminium or Dead Black Jap-a- lac are renewed almost beyond belief; the Dead Black produces that beau tiful wrought-iron effect.
 OLD AUTOMOBILES, carriages, wagons, agricultural implements, etc., Jap-a-lac-ed with either Brilliant Black, Red, Green or Empire Blue, look 100 per cent better, and are given new life. The cost is nominal, and the work can be done by an inexperienced person.
 JAP-A-LAC is household necessity, and can be used in hundred and one ways, from cellar to garrett" and is especially adapted for finishing old or new floors and woodwork Ask your baint dealer.

 Mrs. Virginia Clay-Clopton of Hunts vile arrived yesterday and is staying with MT. and Mrs. Robert Jemison. Mrs Clay-Clopton is one of the most notable women of the day. Her memoirs, pub- lished some time ago under the title of a Belle of the Fifties." are brilliantly an entertainingly written. While they recall the social brilliancy of Washington at that period, and the beauties and belles of that day, they are also a record of the political struggles immediately preceding the Confederate war and they contain so many notes of values from Mrs Clay Clopton's private manuscripts bearing upon the war period that as the wife of Senator Clay the active part played by Mrs. Clay in the history of that time covers some years frightened by the so- cial life of Washington, and later sad- dened by her personal appeals for the re- lease of her husband makes her the most interesting of the group of noted women now so intimately associated with public life of that time. Mrs. Clay -Clopton will. with General Cabell, open the grand sponsors ball on Thursday evening. His tory does not record the number of balls that this belle of the '50s has graced, but probably not in her long and interesting

BRYAN AFTER Il RECORD.
Speaks Forty-seUen Times in Too
Daus and Feels an Fine Trim.

Hebron Neb. Oct. 1.-THE second days tour Of
Nebraska by w. j. Bryan closed at Hebron to-
night He made twenty-five speeches, varying in
length from minutes to hour. The
diences were composed largely of old friends OF
the candidate who had heard him many times in
the last twenty years.
Three Congress districts were traversed, and in
each one Mr.. Bryan made an appeal for the Demo-
cratic Congressional nominee. He invariably be-
gan each speech by saying that he more in
terested in the election of the candidate for Con-
gress than was the candidate himself. Il should
feel mighty lonesome in Washington, If both the
Senate and the House were against me- he said;
but if you will give the House, 1
we shall make the Senate feel lonesome"
At those places where it possible do so
Mr. Bryan discussed all the issues, but in small
places he devoted his time explaining and
Tending the Democratic position the guarantee
of bank deposits
Stops were made at North Bend Schuyler, Co
lumbus Clarks, Central City, Grand Island. Shell
ton Gibbon Kearney, Kenesaw. Hastings Har-
ward, SharonviIle. Sutton, Grafton, Fairmont, Ge-

the auditors were farmers, with a sprinkling OF

ngs
In speaking OF what he termed the Presidents
interfering with the election" IN his Hebron
speech he said: My nomination came from the
people, for l had President, with army OF
oficeholders to help get the nomination"
M. Bryan expressed himself tonight being
in the best physical condition he had ever eX-
perienced in any campaign. He has spoken forty
seven times in the last days. and is apparently
the least fatigued Of any man in his party. The
state committee has assigned eighteen speeches to
him for tomorrow, but in all probability the
extras viii bring that number up to twenty-five

Spader Co. asked about a debit item OF
$1,000 in Charles Coster's personal account with
his firm in August. 1896. The amount had been
transferred from J. G. Marshall's account and Mr..
Stone wanted TO trace it to that account but was
unable to find the book for his purpose among
those in the He then asked that the entire
account containing that item be given him but
Edward L. Mooney, counsel for Marshall, Spader g.
Co., objected saying:
Mr.. Marshall is the head OF our frrn. and II we
produced that account We would be exposing to the
scrutiny of the public our private business for
years past. He said that If the account were dis
closed il could be used by William n. Idttauer in
his suit for 100000 against Marshall, Spader s. Co.
Before the hearing adjourned Mr.. Stone asked
that the purchase and sales stock books OF Mar

examine them before the next hearing

spect to counsel believe it is made for sinister
