Final Result Gives Demo-
cratic Candidate 23 Ma
iority Instead Of 10.
COUNT NEW BRUNSWICK
BALLOTS ALL OVER AGAIN
Justice Instructs Election
Officers to Use Their Own
Judgment in Matter.
aeee.al g tAs RYBNINe NHRa.

New Brunswick, Nov. 27;-Jus-
tice Bergen today decided the Sayre-
vile recount in favor of August
Rohde, the democratic candidate for
county committeeman In Sayreville
who was declared elected according
to the original returns, by ten votes.
Rohde's opponent, Richard Lockhart,
the republican candidate, claimed
that f1fty-eight Of the ballots should
not have been counted. The justice
decided that these ballots should be
counted and the outcome of the re-
count is that Rehde now has ma
3ority of twenty-three instead of ten,
as at first.
There were las disputed ballots
IN all. The final county counting
gives Rohde 837 and Lockhart S14.
After finishing the sayreville
count, the Justice took up New
Brunswick, where there Is a fight
over the aldermanic election in the
fourth ward. The election board had
reserved 451 ballots for the justice
TO pass upon. The dispute was over
the marking on the question as to
the police pension fund.
Lawyer Alan Strong for the re-
publicans, and Robert Adraii1, for
the democrats. got into a hot argu-
ment over the matter and the out
come was that the justice told the
election board to count the ballots
over again and to count the disputed
ballots this time, as he held that
they were perfectly proper.
He told the board that they should
use their own Judgment, that they
really had more authority than the
court in this matter After they
have counted them again they can
bring those that they cannot decide
upon to the Justice next Saturday
when he sits at Elizabeth.
1t Is expected that about twenty
ave or thirty ballots will be referred
to him at that time. The outcome is
expected to be victory for the DEM
ocratio candidate who was declared
elected by two majority as result
~of the original returns.
The Justice gave his opinion OF the
recount fashion, and condemned the
practice.

SAM HoUsToN'S MOTHER.

For the Children's Sake She Faced the
 PeriIs of the Wilderness.
 The mother of Sam Houston was another woman who for the sake of her children hazarded the dangers of the wilderness journey without the protection of a mans strong arm. Houston's friend and biographer, c. Edwards Lester. portrayed her as "an extraordinary woman, distinguished by an impressive and dignified counte- nance and gifted with intellectual and moral qualities which elevated her in a still more striking manner above most of her sex"
 The death of her husband left Mrs. Houston in poor circumstances and with a growing family of six sons and three daughters. Knowing that many of her neighb@rs who had gone west had prospered, she determined to fol- low their example in order that her children might get good start in life, sold her Virginia farm and journeyed to Tennessee, ending her migration only when within eight miles of the boundary between the settlements of the whites and the wigwams of the CherokeeS.
 There she erected a rude cabin with the help of her oldest boys, and there she labored diligently to bring up her children to be useful men and women. It was for them that she toiled and prayed and denied herself, personify- ing in her devotion another trait of the mothers of the early west.-Smith's Mag9ZiDe

cLAY's FIRST SPEECH.
It Began In Confusion, but Ended In a
 Triumph,

N Began In Confusion, but Ended In (
 Triumph.
 Henry Clay as a young man was ex- tremely bashful, although he possessed uncommon brightness of intellect and fascinating address, without effort making the little he knew pass for much more. In the early part of his career he settled in Lexington, Va, where he found the society most con genial, though the clients seemed somewhat recalcitrant to the young lawyer. He joined a debating society at length, but for several meetings he remained a silent listener.
 One evening after a lengthy debate the subject was being put to vote when Clay was heard to observe soft ly to friend that the matter in ques- ton was by no means exhausted. He was at once asked to speak and after some hesitation rose to his feet. Find ing himself thus unexpectedly con- fronted by an audience, he was cov- cred with confusion and began, as he had frequently done, in imaginary ap- peals to the court, "Gentlemen of the jury"
 4 litter that ran through the au- dience only served to heighten his em- barrassment, and the obnoxious phrase fell from his lips again. Then he gath cred himself together and launched into a peroration so brilliantly lucid and impassioned that 1t carried the house by storm and laid the corner stone to his future greatness, his first case coming to him as a result of this speech, which some consider the finest he ever made.
