The fall track and fiell games open to students of Georgetown University were held yesterday afternoon on the college field. They were postponed from last Sat- urday. The rain yesterday morning made the track unpleasant and rendered fast time impossible. A number of the best men in college did not participate, as they wanted to keep themselves in shape for next Saturday. There were two heats in the 100-yard dash, Fox winning the tirst and McAnernay the second. Fox won the final in 10 3-5 seconds. Devereux won the 12)- yard hurdle race, with Fleming second. Doyle won in the 16-pound hammer-throw- ing, with a record of 73 feet 10 inches to his credit. The mile walk was won by Cam- eron in 8.32 2-5 minutes, with Sullivan and Fincke second and third. The other events were as follows: Running high jump, Dillon, 5 feet, 2 1-2 inches; two-mile bicycle race, Taggart, 7 minutes 10 seconds; Romadka, second, and Mayer, third; 880-yard run, Holt, 2 minutes 24 seconds; pole vault, Dillon, $ feet 6 inches; putting the shot, Doyle, 35 feet 10 inches; mile run, Robert Douglas, 4 minutes 5% seconds, a new record for the college in this event; 220-yard run, Fox, 243-5 seconds. The officials were: Referee, B. J. Wefer: ; judges, F. B. McDer McDermott and J. Wefers; clerk of course, J. P. O'Brien; measurers of field events, Brennan, Kelly and Gaynor. High School Field Day. The High School field and track day has been postponed from November 16 to No- vember 23, and will be held at the George- town University grounds, Georgetown field having been offered for that purpose free of charge. On this account the entries for the several events will not close until November 1b. —— SHE WAS A SENTIMENTAL GIRL. He Knew It, and Wanted to Hit the Nail on the Head. . From the Detroit Free Press. “You keep rings here, don’t you?” he asked in a Woodward avenue jewelry store. “Certainly,” replied the clerk. ‘“Some- thing for yourself?” o; I'm thinkin’ of gittin’ sunthin’ fur my girl. Got anything fur about two dol- lars?” “Yes, I can give you a plain ring at that price. Here is something very neat.” “T guess that would fit her all right. I have sunthin’ engraved on to it?” “Of course—what Is it?” “Wall, I want you to put on ft: ‘From Thomas J. to Helen H., who is not only the best-lookin’, but the smartest girl in the state of Michigan. My love will never, never grow cold, and should death overtake me my last thought would be of you. Be good and you'll be happy, and please accept this as a token of love.’ That's what I want you to put on.” “Good gracious, but you can't get all that ena ring!” exclaimed the clerk. Kin ‘But the usual way Is simply to engrave: ‘T. to H.,’ with the date after it.” “The usual way may be all right with some girls, but it won't work with mine. What she wants 1s sentiment—heaps of sentiment. So you can’t get it on?” “Couldn't possibly do it. You’d want a surface as large as your hand to get that on."” “Say!” exclaimed the young man after a moment of reflection—“‘I have it! I'll buy her a silver belt buckle instead of a ring, and I'll have ‘em put on all I sald and add to it: ‘You are never absent from my thoughts, and a vision of your dear face rises up before me a thousand times a day. Be true—be true! Virtue is its own reward, and your mother kin live with us after we are arried. No more at present—good- yer E as a Lawyer. From Jobu Sherman's Recollections. During the early period of practice at the bar I studied my cases carefully and had fair success. I settled more cases by com- promises, however, than I tried before a jury. I got the reputation of being suc- cessful by full preparation and a thor- ough knowledge of the facts and law of the case. In addressing a jury I rarely at- tempted flights of oratory, and when I did attempt them I failed. I soon learned that it was better to gain the confidence of a jury by plain talk than by rhetoric. Subsequently in public life IT preserved a like course, and once, though I was advised by Gov. Chase to add a peroration to my argument, I did not follow his edvice. While I defended many per- sens for alleged crimes I never but once prosecuted a criminal. My old friend, Mr. Kirkwood, was the prosecuting attorney of the county, and I renewed with him my “moot court" experience in frequent con- test between real parties. LAND’S VOTE Lloyd Lowndes and the Whele Re- publican State Ticket Elected. TT WAS A COMPLETE LANDSLIDE Republican Majority in the State Estimated to Be 20,000. BALTIMORE’S MAYOR For the first time since the war Maryland has elected a complete republican state tick- et. Lloyd Lowndes and the republican ticket are elected by a majority of from 15,000 to $20,000. Lowndes’ majority over Hurst, democrat, in Baltimore city was figured this morning at 10,570, with but fcur precincts then to be heard from. According to the returns made up to this morning Lowndes had majorities in the first, third, fifth, sixth, seventh, tenth, eleventh, thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nine- teenth, twentieth, twenty-first and twenty- second wards, and those wards have also been carried by all republican candidates. This will probably give the republicans the senate in the first district and full reputli- ean legislative candidates in both the first and second districts. The following -cepublicans have been chosen to the legislature: First District.—State senator—Gustavus A. Dobler. House of delegates—Samuel Smith Ford, John A. Janetzke, Charles E. Cunningha Lloyd Lowndes. H. Burns, Wm. H. Schilling, Charles W. George W. Padgett. All republicans. Second District.—George H. Mason, Yates Pennington, Lewis Patzel, Harry N. Aber- crombie, Rufus W. Applegarth, Lindley M. Huggins. All republicans. Third District.Senate—Frank S. Stro- bridge. Hovse of delegates—Henry N. Bankard, Edward F. olson, George W. Warren- berger, Charles M. Nash, George J. Kauf- man, Frederick R. Bye. All republicans. Baltimore's Republican Mayor. Alcaeus Hoorer, republican, was elected mayor, and the clerks of the courts, sheriff and judges of orphans’ court will also be republican. The council from present indi- cations will be republican in both branches. There will probably be but five democrats in the council. The Reform League claims great credit for the result in Baltimore, where they watched the polls closely all day for re- peaters. The vote was the heaviest in ten years, not only in Baltimore, but through- out the state. All day excitement was in- tense. Their frequent challenges led to many disturbances. As described in the specigis to The Star yesterday, Prof. W. » Lee Bonsal, A. S. Miles, W. A. Pleasants and T. S. Bonsal were assaulted ard badly bruised. A policeman was shot in the foot while taking a prisoner to the station, and a democratic voter was shot in the breast, but not seriously, by a re- publican voter. Chairmaa Wellington of the republican committee sent a letter to Marshal Frey accusing the police of not doing their duty, but the chief replied that they were doing the best they could. The negro vote was unusually heavy, and it is charged that many of them voted more than once. A colored physician was elected to the city council in the eleventh ward. Baltimore's Vote. The vote of Baltimore city by wards on governor is as follcws: First ward—Hurst, D., 2,180; Lowndes, R., 2,80; scattering, 78; Lowndes’ majority, 618. Second ward—Hurst, 2,242; Lowndes, 1,376; scatterivg, 35; Hurst's majority, 831. Third ward—Hurst, 1,646; Lowndes, 1,74 scattering, 50; Lowndes’ majority, i.

Twenty-seccnd ward—Hurst, 1,280; Lowndes, 1,940; scattering, 43. Lowndes’ majority, 660. Total majorities for Lowndes in Balti- more city, 11,537; total majorities for Hurst in the city, 1,067. Lowndes’ majority in the city, 10,570. Throughout the State. - Returns from the state are necessarily incomplete, but the indications favor Lowrées’ success everywhere. The rough returns received last night show the foilow- ing pluralities for Lowndes: Allegany, 1,700; Anne Arurdel, 400 or 500; Charles, 800; Caroline close, but probably will have small majority for Lowndes; Carroll, 200; Cecil, 100; Frederick, 700; Garrett, 400; How- ard, 500; Harford, clcse and doubiful, proba- bly slight majority for l.owndes; Somerset, 200; Washington, 1,000; Talbot, 200; Prince George's, 400. These are conservative csti- mates from democratic sources. Hurst seems to have carried but four counties— Kent, Wicomico, Queen Anne and Montgom- ery. The legislature will be republican on joint ballot, and will elect a republican to succeed Senator Gibson. Democrats concede the election of Lowndes and the legislature by from 10,000 to 12,000 majority. The Bladensburg District. Election passed cff very quietly in the Bladensburg district. There were 660 votes cast, which is considered unusually large. Out of these votes there were over ninety split tickets. It was nearly 2 o’clock this morning when the counting of the vote was finished. The vote stood as follows: For governor, Lowndes, rep., 334; Hurst, dem., 318; for controller, Graham, rep. ; Smith, dem., 322; attorney general, Clabaugh, rep., 323; Crothers, dem.

Last night both sides claimed victory, with the odds In favor of the republicans. Colonel Bradley made great inroads in sev- eral democratic strongholds. Louisville and Jefferson county, which was considered the center of the fight, apparently went repuh- ican. Four years ago Jefferson county, of which Louisville is the county seat, gave a democratic majority for governor of 5,171. Returns from 111 of the 15 precinets in the county give Bradley 3,798 majority. Bradley carried his own county. Garrard and Bourbon county alone indicated a re- publican loss. Hardin may pull through in Fayette county and Lexington with a small plurality. Chairman Norman of the demo- cratic state committee claimed Hardin's election by 15,000 early in the evening, but when asked for an estimate later refused to reiterate his claim. The Louisville republicans claim all the municipal offices except two or three schoo! trustees, and that the city and county will give Bradley a majority of from 6,000 to 8,000. At Frankfort yesterday’s was the largest vote ever poll Republicans elect the city council and all of the school trustees. county (Franklin) gives Hardin 2,18) ley, 1,725 At Col. Bradley's Home. In Colonel Bradley’s home, Lancaster, from early morning the streets were filled withypeople. Two long streamers, white and blue, stretched across the main street near the square, from which was suspended a portrait of Colonel W. O. Bradley. There was the best of order meintained. The law in Kentucky regarding the sale of liquors on election day is strict, and, as a result, there were few intoxicated men to be seen. Col. Bradley remaincd at home all day. Last night the Lancaster court house was turned into a telegraph office. An admission fee was charged and returns were read to the enthusiastic listeners. Shortly after 6 o’clock Colonel Bradley arrived at the court house, where he received the returns, sitting at the elbow of the operator in the jury room. He was the coolest man in the room. The first report came from Bryantsville, then the Lancaster precincts came in, with the crowd yelling wildly. Colonel Bradley carried his home by 62. It usually goes 200 democratic. Toward 9 o'clock the state re- turns began to come in. With one exception these showed gains for Colonel Bradley. The one exception was Bourbon county, which showed a loss of over 200 at 10 o'clock. It was estimated that If the same ratio was maintained Colonel Bradley would carry the state by a large majority. As the night wore on the enthusiasm of the crowd grew. At 10 o'clock Colonel Bradley said that if returns kept up he would carry the eighth congressional district by 500. Its usual democratic majority 1s 200. He carries his own county, Garrard, by 395, a democratic loss of 320 Victory for the Women. The entry of Kentu¢ky women into politics resulted in a victory for them at Lexington yesterday. Lexingten schools had been manipulated by the politicians until they be- came honeycombed with scandals. The new charter for Lexington allowed the women to vote for members of the board of education, beginning with yesterday’s election. Re- publicans and demoerats bOth declined to run candidates against the women’s ticket, but a few days ago the democratic commit- tee put out an opposition ticket. The women had been instructed to vote for Miss Laura Clay, and they succeeded so well that, although the democrats induced many colored men to vote the democratic or “gentlemen's” ticket, as they termed it, the women won after a hard struggle by an average majority of 237. There was no rowdyism around the polls. The election officers for the board of education were all women. They performed their duties with as much dexterity as did the men in the reguiar election for state officers. Miss Laura Clay and other leading women's rights women, through whose efforts the women of Lexington were enabled to vote, are enthusiastic over the success attending their first experience in politics, May Depend on One County. F Scattering returns received up to 1 o'clock, including Louisville and the county, give Hardin a majority of 1,700. These returns come from every county in the state. Four years ago, in a race for governor, the demo- cratic majority was 28,081, and some idea of the present result may be gleaned from the fact that the republicans made the following gains in counties remotely situated: Adair, 248; Allen, 473; Mercer, 286; Madison, 298; Breckinridge, 840; Boyd, 566; Cumberland, 257; Franklin, 588. - In the county the republican gain will be over 11,000. ‘The Courier-Journal, in its midnight extra, said: “‘The returns possible at this hour are too far from complete to do more than serve as indications. They show generally that the democrats have suffered losses in most counties. In some counties they seem to have gained slightly. The vote was not as heavy as had been expected. The republi- cans lead in all the legislative races except in the forty-eighth district, where Carroll had a walkover. From present indications, John H. Woller is defeated for the state sen- ate by Christian Stege.”” The attention of the committeemen and ‘newspapers is so much centered on the race for governor that the legislative contests outside of Jefferson county are overlooked in the returns. The reports are too meager for general use. The indications last night were that the vote of Jefferson county would decide the race for governor. Whatever the result, the majority will be very small; in fact, it will not be a majority,but a plurality. Garrard, Bradley’s county, gives a repub- lican gain of 181. Every county from which complete returns have been received shows large republican gains. Jobn W. Griggs. NEW JERSEY. For the First Time in Thirty Years a Republican Governor Elected. New Jersey for the first time in thirty years has elected a republican governor, and ex-Senator John W. Griggs will be the successor of Gov. George T. Werts. His plurality in the state will probably go over 15,000. Candidate John W. Griggs was elected without the plurality of either Camden or Essex counties. There was an increase in all the republican counties; a decrease in the pluralities of all the democratic coun- ties, beginning with Hudson and going thrcugh the democratic tler of the Dela- ware valley. No election in New Jersey for years caus- ed so much interest at the polls as the fight yesterday.It is generally admitted that the fine autuma weather greatly increased the vote, and was an advantage to the demo- crats, becatse many of the stay-at-home democrats, voters in the rural counties, drove to the polls, much to the edification of the demccratic managers. In Jersey City the total vote cast in the city was 25,481 out of a total registration of 31.047. Hudson county still remains in the demo- cratic column. It gave Chancellor MeGill over five thousand plurality, which is over one thousand less thar was given three years ugo for George T. Werts, and nearly four thousand less than was en to Mr. Cleveland. All eleven of the assembly can- didates are elected. Senator W. H. Daly was re-elected by a vote that stands strik- ingly in contrast with tke head of the ticket. In Mercer there was a stiff fight made to defeat Senator W. H. Skirm, who sought a re-election. There were a number of combi- nations made against him by republicans who had personal reasons for working for his defeat, but his democratic friends came to his rescue and his re-election is assured by at least 1,500 plurality, which is slightly arger than the plurality he received three years ago. and this was the cause for great rejoicing among his friends. In Cape May county politicians of both parties say it was the cleanest election held in that county for ten years. It was an exciting night in Paterson, the home of Candidate Griggs, and the streets were crowded from early in the evening until long after midnight, and the enthusi- asm ran very high. The fight made against Senator Samuel D. Hoffman, because of his race track vote three years ago, was not productive of the disaster that the democratic politicians had hoped. It did not affect ex-Senator John W. Griggs. T. Greenhalge. MASSACHUSETTS. The Majority of Greenhalge Thought to Be 65,000. Two hundred cities and towns in Massa- chusetts, including Boston, give Green- halge 98,020; Williams, 65,790; Kendall, 2,169. Same townS last year gave Green- halge 98,077; Russell, 66,072. Republican gain, 234. Late returns last night indicated the ma- jority of Greenhalge to be about 65,000 in the state. The legislative department of the gov- ernment is solidly republican, thirty-three of the forty senators elected being of that political belief. This is a slight gain for the democratic party, the senate last year having stood thirty-six republicans and four democrats. In the house of representatives the re- publicans have practically the same ma- jority as last year, which was an over- whelming one. The governor's council will contain but one democrat as an adviser ‘n the executive chamber. In brief, the result is a clean sweep for the republican party in the state, it having suffered in no way from the supposed defection caused by the A. P. A. movemert. ——_—__+e+_____ KANSAS, Martin Elected Chief Justice by Least 10,000 Majority. The total vote polled in Kansas yesterday did not exceed 240,000. This is 45,000 less than was polled last year. The contest in the state was for chief justice, with David Martin as the republican and C. K. Holli- day as the independent candidate. From unofficial returns received up to midnight the election of Judge Martin by 10,000 ma- jority was conceded. He carried the full republican vote, and was supported by many democrats and populists. In southeastern Kansas the liquor ques- tion entered into the local contests, and several counties, heretofore republican, have elected the populist ticket. This !s because of the whisky prosecutions forced upon the communities by Attorney General Dawes. It ig believed that Judge Simons, republi- can, is defeated for judge in the Fort Scott district, by Senator Dillard, populist, be- cause of the bolt of the resubmission re- publicans. In two other judicial districts the vote is so close that it will require the official count to determine. In the remain- ing four districts the republicans have elected their candidates. Additional returns increase the number of counties carried by the republicans, and indicate that they will have practically all of the offices. Martin's majority over Hol- day for justice will probably reach 10,000, a decided record on the resubmission ques- tion, which the latter candidate repre- sented. Holliday was a free silver candidate. (Continued on ‘* ‘” Page.) at COULD ONLY EAT PEPTONOIDS, But Pink Pills Made It Possible to Eat Anything. Get Your Digestion Right and Your Health Will Take Care of Itself. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills miracuously cured me of two diseases and have otherwise done me a vast amount of good, said Mrs. E. A. Meeker of No. 207 3d street southeast, Washington, to a Star reperter tod: “For many years Twas a sufferer from muscular rheumatism in its worst form, and in addition bad stomach treuble to such an extent that for a loug time I could eat nothing stronger than beef pep- tenolds, The rheumatism commenced in my back and not only extended into left arm, almost perclyzing it from the houlder to the elbow, attzcked my bips and limbs with such that it was Impossible for me to go street witbeut being supported by an attendant. ‘I was attended by four different physicians—not all at one time—cf both the allopathic and homeo- pathic schools, and there were times when I was covered from my neck to my fect with porous or sce other kind of plasters, for I tried every- thing of the sort that was recommended by my friends. ‘During the greater part of this thme my hus- hand and son were urging me te take Dr. Wiiliams Pink Viils, but I steudily refused io do so. “About two years or two and a half years ago the physician who was then attending me, and I have had none since, sald to me: ‘Mrs. Meeker, there is no use for me to come and see you any more; you have muscular rhe umatism, a disease inci old and you cannot be cured. I will give You some ireu for your blvod, aud when this pre- scription runs out you can get it renewsd. If you ket much worse you can send for me, but I will not again call until I am summoned.’ “I was much discouraged at getting this in- formation, and when imy husband and on returned home and I told them what the doctor hud said about my case they were discouraged iso. My hand again renewed his request that I should Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, but I again refused. ‘Then my son, without saying anything to me about ut on the "This I tried, but it did me no good. ‘Abou: the same time I was told about a cele- brated massageur who also administered electricity who many of my friends thought could certainly cure me, “I went to his office and found him getting ready to leave the clty for his annual vacation. I stat- ed my case to the sclentist and he said he could cure me, but that he would not commence to treat me until his return a month later. He advised me, however, to rub my affected arm in a peculiar manner, which I did, bat without experiencing any bevent. “By this time T was completely disheartened, and returned home feeling that I was incurable. “Well, what did your new doctor say,” inquired my hnshand as soon as he saw me. “Oh, he has gone away for a month, and I don’t believe he can do me any good anyhow. There does not seem to be any cure for me. i aoe you try the Pink Pills,’ said my hus- « ell, go get me a box, I replied. ‘No, I won't do that, because one box will do you no good, but if you will promise me to take them for a reasonable length of time, say until you use tive or six boxes, I will willingly buy all you may need.” “How long will it take for me to consume five or six boxes, I asked. ‘Oh, allout a month, was the rept: All right, said I I will take them for a month. ‘My husband at once went and bought three boxes of the pills, and I commenced taking them the same evening. I remember well the day, for it was the same upon which Congress began its last extra session, August 7th. “I want to say that when I began taking the Pink Pills it was without the least fuith in their efli- cacy for geod or belief that they would benefit me, but simply to please my husband’ and son by taking something. However, I took them as di- rected by the makers, and abopt the end of the month I found to my great surprise that my stom- ach was +0 much better that I had no longer to subsist on beef peptonolds, but could” begin to in- dulge in more solid food. “So I told my husband that as the Pink Pills were evidently doing me good, I would try them fer un- er month. continued to vse them as directed, and during the second month my eyesight, which had been very tad for a long time, began to Improve, and it was much more pleasant for me to go on the street, though I still had to be attended, on account of my weak lmbs. : “How many boxes of the Pink Pills I took in all I could not begin to tell, as there were periods when I would stop using them for a week at a time.

From the Army and Navy Journal. John W. Keely of Keely motor fame, in a circular addressed ‘to all who hold stock in the Keely Motor Company, scrip prom- ises of interests in enterprises resulting from my work, or obligations of any sort signed by me and outstanding against me,” says: “I find myself nearing a practical solution of the problems which for a considerable time have engaged my atten- tion, and I know that the force I discover- ed some twenty-two years ago is entirely different from the force which I am now researching; and, furthermore, I find that the old force and inventions connected therewith are practically valueless, because I am unable to harness or control the force for commercial purposes by any of the de- vices constructed for its use. “Assuming that my speculative obliga- tions covered by Keely Motor Company's stock, assignments of promised interests, and kindred obligations of whatever sort, amount to, say, $10,000,000 par value, I de- sire to set aSide a par equivalent in stock of the new ccmpany to cancel these.” This would appear to be a case of “sowing the wind and reaping a whirlwind.” Even as it !s, Keely proposes to retain enough of his new stock to provide working capital and to take care of himself, “so that I may be able to prosecute experiments for the further application of the new force to my heart's content.” ‘The best and purest is sought order Huyler’s Cocoa and Choc grocer. yall.
