there is a possibility of either Of the

sdent Of the United States. It would
be either a choice of Vice President

a well known eastern newspaper cores

time yesterday.
Should none of the candidates receive
a sufficient number of votes to win a
majority in the electoral collge, it Is pro-
vided for in the twelfth amendment of
the constitution that the house Of repre-
sentatives shall make a selection of the
three highest running candidates who
would be Taft, Wilson and Roosevelt.
"Of course If there is no president
elected there will be no vice presidnt
elected. The thirteenth amendment pro-
vides that in such event the senate shall
elect a vice president, choosing between
the two highest running nominees who

"Where there is a democratic major
ity in the house, on the question Of elect
ing a president, the vote is taken by
the states which could result in dead
lock and the senate's choice of a vice
president would become the president on
March 4 next. Event If the house were
to choose president it might result in
the senate's selection of a vice president
of an entirely different political creed
This would likely throw the whole next
administration in four years turmo'i
which would be disastrous for the bust

sible political complications. 1t is time

Because Of, rains in North Dakota and
Minnesota, during. the wheat harvest,
the managers of the Northwestern Pro-
ducts Exposition have decided not to re-
quire farmers to- send sheayes Of their
wheat with their i've bushels Of thresh-
ed grain to compete for the 5000 prize
to be awarded in Minneapolis in No
vember.
The rain made it also impossible for
formers to secure good sheaves and in
some places they could not have &C.
cured sheaves at all unless they had
pulled the grain before it was ripe. This
caused the exposition people to waive
the sheaf Requirement.
All that is necessary now to enter the
contest for the big prize is to send five
bushels Of hreshed grain prepaid to VIII

The case is probably of more interest
at this term Of court and 1t is safe to
prophesy that the court room will be

Kelly, who is a negro, is accused Of
shooting Chester Wilson, also colored. on
July IS, 1871, at Groton, where both men
were members Of gang Of laboress

and another man Of the, gang were en-
gagged in free-for-all fight, it is alleged

pulled his revolver and fired one sho,

lippe on Hunt.
The great Napoleon was not great
at the whist table. and characteris-
tic story is told Of him Mt st. Helena.
At a private party Of whist he took
out four napoleons to use as markers,
and one of the young ladies took up
one of the coins and asked him what
It was. The polite hero snatched it
rather roughly from her and, pointing
to the impression. exclaimed, "C'est
moi"
The annoyance caused by this Incl
dent ruftled him so much that he made
q misdeal. The party begged him to
try again, and he did SO with the same
result. His countenance then display
ed the RACES of convulsive fury, and
his anger was not appeased until the
house had been searched for old cards,
which could be more easily dealt.
Meantime the unhappy Count Las
Cases. his only attendant. was ordered
to sit down at spare table to play
the cards alone until they should run
smoothly. ...
Louis Philippe showed equal regard
for the coin that bore his name. he
dropped louis on the carpet while
playing whist and arrested the prog
ress Of the game to look for it, where
upon a foreign ambassador who was
one of the party set fire to billet of
1000 francs to give light to the king
under the table.

Undertaken Wasem, when preparing
the body for burial, discovered n bullet
lodged near the spinal cord. Then there
was another that had evidently passed
through the lungs and had also lodged
in the back. There was a third bullet
hole which had healed over and had
evidently been made some time ago.
There was also scar about four inches
long on his chest, which had evidently
been made with razor or sharp knife
at some time.
The bullets which the undertaken
thinks had been in the body for at least
two or three years were dug out.

MODELLED FROM MEMORY.
oanton Was Wonder, Though Ho Did
Once Mix His Subjects

oanton Was Wonder, Though te Did
Once Mix His Subjects.
Danton. the celebrated caricaturist,
had wonderful power of modelling
from memory. After one long look at
his subject he could go to his studio
and make bust quite perfect in its
resemblance.
One day young man came to him.
saying that his sister was i'll and about
to die and that, although the family
wished her bust modelled, they dared
not excite her by mentioning it..
Would he undertake to reproduce her
features after seeing her once? Dan.
ton agreed, and next day the brother
informed his sister that he intended
to present her with some jewels and
that young man would bring some
specimens for her approval.
Danton brought in the jewels and.
going home. modelled a bust of strik.
ing resemblance. Next year an old
gentleman. the father Of the young wo.
man, came to order bust of the broth
er, who also had died. This, too, was a
marvellous success.
The result of such planning. how
ever, was not always as satisfactory
to his patrons as in these cases. A
gentleman who could not persuade his
wife to sit asked Danton to enter a
certain omnibus one day and fix in his
memory the features Of the lady op-
posite him.
He did so. modelled beautiful bust
and sent it home. 1t proved, however.
to be not the mistress, but the maid,
who had also taken the trip in the
omnibus
