TT Was a Rear cRowD. : It was a great crowd, forming « compact mass across the wide stretch of the avenue, from building line to building line. Through the center a narrow lune was left clear, through which the cable cars found their cantious way ‘The astonishing feature ofthe scenes last even- ing was the permanency and persistency of the crowd. | People began to gather in front of Tax Stan office before dark, and from that time un til 6 o'clock this morning, when the telegraph | wires ceased to throb from sheer fatigne, the | crowd remained. During the earlier hours of the evening, of course, the election bulletins | were read by ® larger number than when the hours grew inte, but still it remained a crowd up to the early morning hours.

It was difficult to determine the political bias the crowd. Judging from the cheers und applause with which the news favorable to both parties were received the spectators seemed to Eo'pretty eqaally divided. Toward the. last, however, itis presumed that those of demo- atic proclivities remained to receive apparent firmation of the victory which the earlier had foreshadowed. Along the fringes crowd were massed vehicles of iptions, and the occupants comfortab 5 hetedas from the vantage ground of their the carriages THE STAR'S BULLETINS.

The western limit of the crowd extended to 12th street and beyond aud on the east side the crowd fowed past Lith street. In that great area the people were nding was hardly noticed because of the rapid ser- vice provided by the two screeus in front of Tux Sian office. It was powsible to give the public a constant succession of bulletins. As fast ax the dispatches could be received on two wires they were at once thrown on the screens. The crowd soon realized thut the best and quickest returns could be found at Tux Sran ce. and as they were out for the purpose of ting the Intest information everybody natur- stayed in frout of Tue STaR screens. ALL CLASSES REPRESENTED. In other respects besides mere numbers it was @ remarkable crowd. All classes were rep- resented in the throng. The bootblack and the wealthy citizen stood elbow to elbow and read the same dispatches and drew their own conclusions. At intervals a company of young men would come marching along singing songs and shouting the name of their favorite candi- | Then some individuals under the influ- ence of the election returns or something more potent would break out into a demonstration und the crowd would iaugh and applaud. These incidents proved to be entertaining diversions. UNTIL 5 O'CLOCK THIS MORNING. It is safe to say that when the usual bed hour arrived very few paid any attention to the time. It was hours after the average citizen under ordinary circumstances retires before the crowd began to thin out. But when 1 o'clock came and Z o'clock came it was marvelous to see the great xa of faces still turned ap toward the screens. Even three hours later the crowd was of large dimensions. At 5 o'clock, when the wires ceased to pulsate, the crowd was still there, anxious to hear the news. There was no doubt about the public interest in this city the elections, and, as usual, THE Stan was equal to the _occasfon and supplied the public with the fullest and latest news. Asa place to get the returns there ular last evening than Tux Bran office, and tho great crowd that assembled soon after’ 6 o'clock and remained for ten or eleven hours was » striking indication of the public appreciation of the enterprise displayed. AT TUE PRESS CLUB. Returns were received at the Press Club last evening. The Postal Company had a wire in | the lobuy of the club house, and im addition the Western Union bulletins were read and posted. ‘The members of the Columbia Athletic Club heard the returns as they were received from a wire which had been run into the gyumasium. ‘The foor was cleared, comfortable chairs were esse 729 Tia Sz.

The Young Men's Demooratic Club were at home in one of the large parlors of Willard’s, and there a throng of about 200 con- | gregated. The retarns were received by special | wire and read to thore present. Noefreshmente | and cigars were served to the members of the club and their friends and everything was done | by President J.

The hatchet being buried and peace and good fellowship reigning supreme, the members of the central democratic committee of the Dis- trict and their invited guests, to the number of two or three hundred, spent the evening at the |rooms of the committee, 1429 Pennsylvania avenue. Bulletins were received by special wire, and after being enjoyed by those in the rooms were shown to the large crowd in front by the means of a large screen, Special dis- atches were also received from Committeemen john Boyle in Virginia and W. H. Manogue in New York. At least three hundred invitations had been sent out to prominent members of the party here. and few of them failod to be ac- epted. Chairman William Holmead, Secretary mas F. Cook and Committeersan M. I. Wei- assixted in receiving the guests of the com- mittee. The Jackson Democratic Association. If there was a more cheerful set of beings in town Iast night than the members of the Jac son Democratic Association they were not vis- ible. Asonnounced in Tux Star, the associn- tion secured two large parlors in the Lawrence Hotel, and even before dark the rooms began to fill up with the members of the association and | their friends, until at 7o'clock they were £0 BETWEEN THY AOTS. densely crowded as to make locomotion ul most impossible, On the balcony of the tel a section of the Marine Band was stationed and added not a little te the pleasure of the great crowd in front of the e selections given by Prof. Fanciuilli's probably heard b lori, but ther gave no in- were there to hear bat of the day's fight, and the returns received were all the music they cared for just then. THE TICKER KEPT AT WORK. Inasmall room adjoining the parlors was staticned a telegraph operator, and he was kept busy throughout the cvening writing out the dispatches. After being read to thove as- sembled the bulletins were thrown upon the large screen in front for the benefit of the out- side throng. Mr. James L.

A few minutes before 1 a.m, President Norris intimated to those present that the returns were far too one-sided to make it interesting any longer and suggested that all go home for a good night's rest. His suggestion adopted, and with for Cleveland and Stevenson the crowd departed. Among those ALE ON CLEVELAND. resent were J. V\ ills Dean, Hume, Charles Pettitt, John B. Harrisoi W. A. Johnson, J.

AL Politics and prayer was the interesting and wholesome combination offered.the young gentle- men of the Young Men’s Christian Association | last night. The combination was evidently a fetching one, for it brought out a good attend- | ance at the home of the association on New York avenue. The double program was carried on in separate parts of the building, althongh echoes of the two operations sometimes mingled. | Down stairs in the aseombly room those mem- bers who believed in duty before pleasure | gathered and gave their attention to the prayer meeting. Upstairs the room fronting on New York avenue was used by the politicians of the | LATION AND DEJECTION, association. Here the returns were received and flashed upon aeanvas on the street in | front of the building by means of x stereopticon. Quite a crowd of men gatheryd on the street in front of the canvas an greeted the an- nouncements, each one after his kind. | For an hour or two each branch of the don- ble attraction held its own protty well. The crowd outside yelled and cheered, while the cople in the assembly room sounded their joxunnas wath fervor equal to the others’ gusto. But after awhile the political end of the combi- uation gave signs of overbalancing the prayer- | ful one. | THE PRAYER MEETING ADJOURNED. Louder came the cheers from outside as the news became exciting. Signs of restlessness began to manifest in the prayer meeting. | Noble efforts were made to check it, but it was too strong @ head wind to buffet and the prayer meeting gave way to politics. | Great interest was manifested in the returns jand the young men stayec until a late hour, much to the gratification of the originators of this commendable idea to keep the young men off the streets and away from temptation. After 9 o'clock the returns were read in the parlors and the audience there was kept thoroughly informed. ‘The gaps between the returns were filled in with 4 by Messrs, | Withamson, Titus, Drew, Carter and others, The members of the association showed their appreciation of the efforts of the management to gratify them and all deciared the association & first-class place to receive election news. ‘Among those prevent were Messrs, W.

REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTRES, Capt. McKee bad the headquarters of the republican tongressional committee cheerily lighted and warmed last night that the stay-at- homes might find a comfortable place to hear the returns. A special wire was put in and weats provided for the men on the first floor, while Indies were made welcome upstairs. For two or three hours the crowd listened to the returns and congratulated themselves on baving such @ nice place to linger.

Around a small table in the middle of the room sat Messrs. Thomas J. Luttrell, Harry Barton, E. W. Anderson and M. A. McGowan.

When ap- proached by a reporter of Tux Stan for an in- | terview the distinguished democrat shook hie Lead and smiled. It was one of those confident democratic smiles, but the grave Miseissippian had nothing to say for publication. —— Familiarity Destroys Friendship. From the Boston Globe Nothing is so dostructive to friendship as is over-fumiliarity. The more ideal and imaginative the nature, the less can it endure a possession that failk to discern invisible lines or boundaries, ‘The individual who materializos before you unannounced, because, indecd,he is your friend, and need not, therefore, surround you with the polite observances that others Would employ, is apt to suggest the despairing wish —“‘If these are frieuds, give me enemies instead.” “If this is friendship, that discards all delicacy and perception, then give me ac- quaintanceship and indifference.” For every one who is living a life at all worth living a liberal margin of uninvaded leisure is abso- jutely essential to the reception of energy from the world beautiful. One must listen if he would hear the voice of the gods. One must hold himself in receptive conditions if he would receive from the spiritual side of life. While reproaches are the destruction of | friendship, the power of silence is its mo:t vital sustainer. If things go a little awry, do not tulk about it. Inquiry and demand of ex- planation is fatal: silence is golden; nine times out of ten any friction rights itself it tet alone. Ifone has been unjust, or wrong, his own conscience will enact the role of accuser, and he wiil be filled with anew rush of tender- ness and love na well as penitence; but if his friend assume the role, and inquire too closely why he did this, or failed to do that, he is an- noyed, and jarred upon, and the nebulous little friction crystallizes into positive separation, Because friendship is not in the least a thing of reason or of choice, but of temperament, It is & matter of magnetism. One may find among all the people whom, in a general way, he considers bis friends those whose presence is always to him joy, and renewal of energy and exhilaration and | delight, and those to whom he desires with all his heart to be kind. those whore welfare he rnestly secks, but whose personal presence leaves him as“limp and clinging” as the esthethe of passionate Brompton. There is nothing to specify. Itis not the lack of intelliggn nor sympathy, nor gooduess, nor anything that can be defined; it is simply the incompatibility of temperament, and however much one's will ix summoned up to overcome this, that result is impossible. Unlers one could ‘change his identity he could not change this tempermental feeling. The person whose presence is (at the a matter of torture may have any or every con- ceivable virtue and talent. But the intuitive temperament takes no cognizance of worthiness as such; nor hardly of the reverse. as -_— Presents for Mr. Gladstone. From the Pall Mail Gazette. ‘The Rev. Henry Drew was an amiable and congenial guide to the many objects of engross- ing interest in Hawarden castle. Before leaving the drawing room I had feasted my eyes on relics and souvenirs of the life still in such wonderful preservation. The room is a large, lightsome one, looking on to the grounds, Every nook and corner of it has some token of love or admiration from worshipers of the great man who inhabits this retreat, These were from all quarters—India, Italy, Ireland, America and England, Here is a huge em: bossed silver ,containing tapestry from India, and there tying alongside a grent book of photos stamped ‘Roma” is an immense, beantifully bound album containing nothing but the names of Italian students.

From the Chicago State Journal. “I bave my trank all packed and I wish you'd lock and strap it,” «aid Mrs. Bowser, who was ready for a journey, to her liege lord the other evening. “I suppose I ought to have called in man this afternoon to do it, but it slipped my | mind entirely.” “Called in a man!” echoed Mr. Bowser. it's got so that 1 can’t buckle w strap and tur akey Id better hang up for a sign som@where. “I know, dear, but last time you know what trouble you had and how mad you got be- + had tho least bit of trouble and never got mad.

He didn’t want to make anv mis- take. He hauled the trunk into the middle of the room and walked around it. Then he seized one hundle and hefted it. “The critter weighs 20,000 pounds if it weighs an ounce!” he muttered’ as he let it down. It can’t bluff me, though. ll get it down if the roof comes with me! My weight ought to bring | that cover down.” GETTING THE TRUNK DowN. He sat down on the cover and bobbed up and down, It was almost a go not quite. Then he got on his hands and kuves and bobbed and sagged, and the hasp was sliding into the slot when Mr. Bowser gave an extra bob and lost his hola. “Mr, Bowser, what on earth are you trying todo?” shouted Mrs. Bowser from the foot of the stuirs agpthe gas fixtures ceased #haking and the walls S@ully quit trembling. “Who's locking this infernal old trank? fiercely demanded as he guthered himself up. She made no answer, and by a carefully se- lected flank movement, aided by bis 220 pounds of avoirdupois, he jammed the hasp in place with such sudden vigor that the shingles on the roof lifted up and fell back again. The ke: was in the lock, but it refused to turn, He tried it half a'dozen times, but it was no go, und he had just hauled off 'to kick the whole west side of the outfit in when Mrs, Bowser ap- peared to inquire: “Ah, you have got the cover down, but have you locked it yet" “It cun't be locked.

He was about to take his solemn oath that it wasn't locked when she got down a leather and said: lere, let me show you how to strap a trunk. Lift up that end. “Who's bossing this job?” he asked in a hoarse whisper. “I came up here to break my shins, pull my lungs out and completely wreck my durned old anatomy on this infernal trunk, and I don’t want any of your hel; When she had gone he got the strap under the trunk. Then he calmly put one end through the buckle, braced both knees against the trunk and sagged back. He meant to cut the trank right in two, but his hands slipped and the back of his head hit one of the posts of the bed before it did the carpet. He was seeing stars and pin wheels and sky rockets by the million when Mrs. Bowser called: “Do you know you are knocking all the plaster off the parlor ceiling? If you can't Strap that trunk I'll come up “and do it my- sagh be rap!

Just in the middle of the staire he made a slip, let go, and the trunk went end over end down into the hall. Mr. Bowser also went end over end after it.

Shipmasters will not forget the month of October, 1892, ina hurry. Every day ships ar- | rive stormbattered and damaged. Yesterday the North German steamship Aller and the | steamship Scottish Prince arrived at New York with more tales of storm and heavy weatber. Another ship, the England, considered a crack , Ship before the modern fliers came, is tossing | helplessly somewhere out at rea and has not | been heard from since last Thursday, when the | steamship Montezuma arrived and reported | that she had sighted the England rolling in the heavy tens off Cape Sable. It was believed | that her engines had been disabled. Since [then ber ayents here have been waiting anx- | iously for news of her, and on Monday they sent out the big ocean tug Edgar P. Luckes | bach to look for her. The Luckenbach is the Diggest ocean tg in the New York harbor and as able as a steamship. She had not been heard from up to late last night. The England was commanded by C; one of the most experienced and abl captains employed by the National line, which | owns the ship. She had a crew of about sixty | men, and there were also on board fourteen cattiomen, who are on their way back from gla: y. The steamship Eng- land is one of the old vessels of the line. She was the first ship toenter theemigrant carrying rvice between this country and Liverpool. | She was asister ship of the Erin, which sailed from port on November 24, 1889, and was never heard of again. The England was built in | 1865 at Jarrow-on-Tyne, England. She is 9,022 tons register, 498 fect long, 42 feet beam and 35 | fect draught. | The British steamship Scottish Prince, com- | manded by Capt. Dobson, arrived from Medi- | terranean ports last night after e most stormy and dangerous voy She was badly dam- | agea and hud a bard time reaching port. Since sailing from St. Michaels on October 22 she | was almost a plaything of the waves, which | swept over her in deluge after deluge. She got through the seas somehow, but not as she started. Red with rust, her decks swept clean of cabin batches and’ ventilators, lifeboats smashed as though they were eggshells, bul- | Narks ripped up like paper, she looked like « | wreck. Everywhere hor decks and sides were jbent and dented. And below she was soaked with salt water, for the tons of water that fell on her decks flooded her cabins. ei North German Lloyd steamship Aller, ith 231 cabin and twenty steerage passe: ‘¢ fared badly, too. One wave strech the badge ca the port side, and, with a sound like « pistol shot, snapped the rail and splintered it. A other sea rose enddenly on the starboard guar- ter und lifted its huge back until it strack the lifeboat hanging on the forward starboard davits, The big, strong meta! craft was dented as if it were a tin bucket, The big vessel was red with rust and showed sigus of heavy weather. The Aller brought back two New York girl, Cecilie Marini and Clementine Franchi, who were carried to Europe against their will when the Aller sailed from New York ‘on her last east-bound trip. They bad gone toscesome friends of on the Fulda and had got aboard of the Aller by mistake. They did Hot tell the captain about it till the ebip had passed Sandy Hook. oe Lines to the Harrison Hat.
