A large ladel of red hot zinc, which Mr. Newton was conveying to the moulds, was in some manner over- turned and the hot metal was pour- ed over the unfortunate man’s foot and in bis shoe, burning him severely Other workmen managed to get the shoe off of Mr. Newton’s foot, and administered to his sufferings, until medical aid could be summon- ed.

ASTORIA |IRIMIIOL NDI Kind You Have Always Bought In the Empire State Party Lines are Obliterated and Political Affiliations Lost. FOLLOW LEADERS RATHER THAN PARTY The Managers of the Opposing Fac- tions Each Claim Victory by a Plurality of 200,000 and Only the Ballots can Decide—Items of In- terest From Other Points, New York, Nov. 5.—Monday wit- nessed the closing scenes in one of the most remarkable political campaigns in the history of the empire state, By mid-night the last public word had been spoken and nothing remained but the story to be told by the ballot them selves. Who the hero of the tale will be cannot be forecasted with any cer- tainity, Old time methods of antict- pating the results of an election have been sendered almost useless, Party lines in many sections of the state have been almost, if not quite, obliterated; political affiliatons of a fe time have been thrown aside and thousands of voters Tuesday will fol low their chosen leader rather than any party. As an illustration of the conditions, which exist, the respective leaders of the great parties, basing their estimates upon what they claim to have been careful, painstaking can vasses, have reached widely different conclusions as to what the result wil! be. The managers of the republican and the democratic and independence league campaigns each has announced himself as convinced that his candi: date will have a plurality of at least 200,000 votes. In some other years the Monday im. mediately preceding election has been largely a day of rest or has been de voted to the quiet work of arranging the last details in preparation for the real struggle which is to come. Not so Monday however. As from the very first the two leading candidates have a strenuous schedule before them Charles B. Hughes, the republican can didate for governor, addressed seven meetings Monday afternoon and even ing in various sections of New York William R. Hearst, the democratic and independence league candidate, ad dressed three or four meetings Mon day night. Fears that the ballots for use in the greater New York in Tuesday's elec tion might not be printed in time for distribution as a result of the delay arising from the nomination contest: in New York county were ended Mon day. Early Monday the last of the 2,004,000 ballots required came from the press and the work of distribution to the polling places was begun. A little over 72 hours was consumed In printing the ballots, Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 5.—Both the re publicans and the fusionists are claim. ing the Nebraska legislature, to be chosen Tuesday, and which will elect a United States senator to succeed Jos. H. Millard. The fight in many of the legislative and senatorial dis tricts is exceedingly close, with the chances favoring the republicans, bu: with the democrats, aided by most of the populists, contesting every inch of the ground. Des Moines, Ia., Nov. 5.—Iowa will go republican by 50,000 plurality, ac: cording to the estimates and predic. tions of the republican central com. mittee, and will go democratic by a plurality of between 20,000 and 30,000 according to the democratic estimates. Between 25,000 and 40,000 republican is a conservative estimate. There is little possibility of the democrats get- ting a majority in either branch of the legislature. Of the congressional dis- tricts, the third fourth, tenth, eleventh, seventh, ninth and probably the fifth and eighth are republican beyond all doubt, The first, second and sixth are in doubt and may go democratic, Considerable interest is manifested throughout the state and indications are that the vote Tuesday will he heavy. Boston, Nov. 5.—The political cam- paign this year is being carried on practically until the opening of polls. Gov. Guild addressed a meeting at noon Monday while John B. Moran, the democratic, proh{bitionist and in dependence league candidate, planned to visit all of the 25 Boston wards Monday evening, making brief speeches in each. . A Close Vote in Tennessee. Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 5.—The con- test in Tennessee between M. R. Pat- terson, democrat,"and H. Clay Evans, republican, for governor is close, Both parties claim the election by from 20,000 to 30,000. The vote is to be light on account of serious disaffection in democratic ranks, upon which hope of republi- can success is based. Voting Machines in Churches. — Salt Lake City, Nov. 5—The Amer ican party paper, the Tribune, com- ments Monday morning on the fact that the voting machines, to be use? for the first time Tuesday, were al lowed to remain in the Mormon meet ‘were removed from other TO HAVE A NEW ZION, Voliva Plans Greatest Religious Colomy in the World Which Shall be Free From Debt. Chicago, Nov. 5.—Wilbur Glenn Vol- fva, successor to John Alexander Do- wie, as head of the Christian Catho- Ue church, outlined to a company of his followers in Kenosha Sunday night plans for the erection of a new Zion, which he said he would make the greatest religious colony in the world, “My policies will be as different from those of John Alexander Dowie,” he said, “as day is different from night. The first command to he obd- served in the new city wil! be ab- solute freedom from debt. Neither Zion nor a man in Zion shall owe a cent. It is my plan to establish col- onies where the homeless and the friendless shall be cared for. I shall have a tract of thousands of acres of land to which I shall be able to in- vite the homeless of the world and ask them to take 20-acre tracts and arn an henest living. It will be my vlan to build factories for the work- ‘memen and to en down end work with them, I shall do away with the aris- tocratic circle that has grown up In Zion and all shall be of equal stand- ing.” Voliva declared that he had no use for orthodox churches. “If the churches of the day,.’ he said, “ren- resent the modern religion, I will take the platform as an infidel and smash them.” PRESIDENT'S PANAMA TRIP. Immdlately After Casting his Vote at Oyster Bay he Will Pre- pare for his Journey. — Washington, Nov. 5.— President Roosevelt will go to Osyter Bay to vote Tuesday morning and im- mediately afterwards will return to Washington to board the naval yacii Mayflower which is to take him to a point off Wolf Trap light, where he will embark on the battleship Louis- fana for his trip to Porto Rico and Panama. The president expects to reach Colon Nov. 13. An elaborate programme has been prepared for the entertatn ment of the presidential party while in the canal zone territory, after which a brief visit will be made to San Juan, Porto Rico, Nov, 23, the return of the party to Washington being scheduled for Nov. 27. One interesting feature of the president’s visit to the canai zone Will be his inspection of the Cule bra cut, which is set for the 16th, On this tour of inspection he will be ac companied by Chairman Shonts and Chief Engineer Stevens. An _ entire day will be spent in viewing this dif ficult section of the canal which has presented some of the most . serious problems in the great work, Indians Win Important Suit. Washington, Nov. 5.—The supreme court of the United States Monday affirmed the decision of the court of claims in the case of Daniel Red Bird, the Cherokee Nation and others versus the United States, known as “The White Man’s Case.” The cases in- volved the long pending claims of between 2,000 and 3,000 white persons to participate in the distribution of the lands and the funds of the Chero- kee. There are over 4,000,000 acres of land and the tribal funds are ex- tensive, The decision was favorable to the Indians. New Mexico For Statehood. Santa Fe, N. M., Nov 5.—The apathy on the statehood question is very noticeable in contrast to the bit- terness over the fight on the loca tickets. It is believed that of 50,000 voters 10,000 will be blank on state- hood. Fifteen thousand will be against statehood, most of these cast by the natives of Northern New Mexico, while statehood will have 10,000 majority. There is no doubt about the re-election of delegate William H. Andrews by 6,000 majority and the election of a republican legislature. Gooa Election Weather Promised. Washington, Nov, 5.—The weather bureau at noon Monday issued the fol- lowing special election day forecast: Fair weather and moderate tempera- ture is indicated for Tuesday gener- ally over the eastern half of the coun- try and also in the middle western and southwestern states, rain in Minne- sota and Dakota and rain or snow and colder weather in Wyoming, Mon- tana and the interior of Washington and Oregon.

Here isa story from Great Bend Berlin Objected to Stiles. Monster Battle’ Ship’s Plans, istrict attorney nor Thaw’s law- Charleston, W. Va., Nov. 5.—Gen. that will make Dave Leahy green with envy: “George Davis, an aged negro, who lives on @ truck farm near here, is attracting much attention. His skin ischanging tothe color of a water melon, and his figure is round- ing intothe shape of a perfectly formed melon, The efdes of the ne gro’s body and head have turned wreen, while his back and face and front part of his body have changed to a brilliant red. Wherever the red shows dozens ot black spots, shaped Ilke melon seeds, can be easily dis- tinguished; on the top of the head, which ia quite bald, there is a growth about three inches {n length which resembles the stem of a melon. The legs and arms are rapidly shrivellng to thesize of a vine, and the ears, hunds and feet have the exact ap- pearance of the leaf of a watermelon vine. Davis positively declines to ose for a photograph. He says thas early in Octoher he expects to start ona trip around the world, and he Intends to exhibit himself in the principal cities.”"—Kausas City Journal, Had a Close Call, “A dangerous surgical operation, involving the removal uf a malignant ulcer, as large as my hand, trom my daughter’s bip, was prevented by the uppitcation of Bucklen’s Arnica Salve,” says A.

If they wuuld only keep their brush and uld rubbish out of the ditches alongside of she road, it would bea greas hulp. One of vur neighbors had she brush cab from alongside of his fence and raked is right over in the ditch running alongside the road.
