Restilt of Yesterday’s FPrimary Elce- tion. The democratic primaries were held in all the wards yesterday. All tho delegations elected were for Boyd, but now'that he has declined to ran, the choice must fall, it is be- lieved, on either Buck, Cushing or Ogden. ‘Lhe delegates elected are as follSw! The First ward cast 675 votes. Five mem- bers of the Casey ticket were elected and two of the Conoyer. Charles King was elected by one vote, having 209 votes to A. Frick's 208, Scullen and Lowry were ulso barely elected, the former luuln]; only two majority and Lowry six. The following are the delegates: H. Theilgaard, Owen Slaven, T. Casey, John Zum'r. Charles Krug, T\ J. Lowryand James Scullen. These delegates are said to bo fa- vorable to Thomas Ring for councilman. Three votes found doubled np together werd thrown out as froudulent. A number of dis- graceful scenes wero enacted during the progress of the voling, promiuent among which was the usurpation of control by the Third ward gang, These had learned that the majority of the Conoyer ticket was opposed to the reopening of the saloons on Sunday and assembled to defeat it. The Rotherys were there, so was Dick Burdish, Ford's brother-in-law, who looks for nomination as councilman; also Pat Ford, his son, and a host of retainers. All that these could do was done to knock out the Conoyer ticket, and 1n this they were successful, with the exception of Messrs. Lowry and Scullen. This meddling with the affuirs of another ward, mauny of the residents of the First say, will cost Mr. Bur- dish many a vote in the latter piace. In the Second ward 505 votes were cast, but owing to the multiplieity of tickets and the great amount of scratching, 1t was 11:25 p. m. before the votes were all counted. There was considerable of a dispute between the judgges over the counting of the votes for . Melia as being for Mickael Melia, there being 83 for the first name and 210 for the latter, sufficient togetber to elect bim a dele- gate. ' The judges finally decided to sign the credentials recommending that Melia be ac- cepted as the difforence in spelling was evi- dently an error. ‘The following compose the delegate ticket: Henry Hies, Thomas Capek, Fritz Mueller, P. 0'Toole, James Flannery, Johu Simanek, Peter Goos. The Third ward cast 5586 votes, and of these only three were scratched. The dele- gawes elected were: Ed Rothery, James Douglas, Adam Snyder, Pat_Ford, John Donovan, Robert Clancey and John Cum- mings. The ticket sclected in the Fourth ward met with no opposition and was as follows: Georgoe H, Guy, A, E. Moynihan, A. J. Pot- ter, Jerome C. Pentzel, Nat Brown, J. S. Gibsou and P. H. Cary. In the Fifth ward 282 votes were cast. Only a few of this number were scratched. The ticket selected is as follows: Ed. O'Connor, E. C. Erfling, Dr, Keogh, Nick Keller, John McGorry, T.J. Conway, Peter Connolly. The delegates elected in the Sixth ward aro as follows: R. H. Holmes, P. M. Tattle, Christ Hansen, Barney Boyle, F. W, Lesen- tine, T. F. O'Brien, J. C. Thomas. In the Seventh ward the Morearty ticket was elected without any opposition, 120 votes being polled. The general sentimontof the delegates is in favor of Buclid Martin for mayor, although they are unpledged. The following are the delegates: Audrew Mur- phy, P. Smith, J. J. Mahoney, W. R. Vaughan, R. L. Cates, P. W. Birkhouser and Jerry Ryan. There was o jolly little row 1n the Eighth ward late In the afternoon, There were two tickets in the field, eachof which was headed by James E. Boyd for mayor. The regular u\uuunllcku! consisting of H, Woiff, C. D, Hell, Henry m,hmeuar, J. R. Worsham, Huln\n. Ed A. Shaw and M. Hendricksol was for Paul Platz for counciiman, and H. Hungate for treasurer, while the an caucus ticket, compgsed of C. F. Williams, D. P. Angell, A. E. Coggeshall, M. J. Downs, C, W. White, James Hyland ana E. Burke, was for Dan Anzell for council and James H. McShane for treasurer. Much the same tactics were used in defeating the regular caucus nominees as were used by the Broatch men in the Fourth ward during the republican primaries. Italians were voted by the score late in the evening, whercas there are not a half dozen in the ward, ‘The judges of election were very chary of infor- mation, and reporters who inquired for news were rudely suubbed. At the conclusion of the count the board folded their tents like Arabs and stole away into the nigbt, leaving behind a nittle barber who asserted that he knew nothing. No oue disputed this fact, but as the eager crowd was thirsty for the result a general round-up ensued which ended in one of the clerks being corralled. He said as uear as he could remember 319 votes were polled, of which the anti-caucus ticket re- ceived 47 majority. Then he escaped. Murmurs of disapproval were heard from the crowd of voters and it will not be a great surprise if a contest results at the conven- twon. ‘There were 215 votes pclled in the Ninth ward. ‘There was no congest and the follow- g were elected: P. A, Gavin, F. P, Zim- mer, C. 8. Moutgomory, Edward Gerske, C. J. Smythe, W. A, Garaner and John O'Don- uhoe. Cushing Will Accept. ‘The result of James E. Boyd's declination to accepu the nomination for mayor on the democratic ticket has been the consent, ob- tained last night, of R. C. Cushing to accept the nomination, He was shown the letter last nlghl.andvllud of the urgency of the sit- uation and earnestly requested to conseat to run, The consent was obtained aud today Mr' Cushing will be nominated as mayoe by the democratio party. sl Horsford's Acid Phosphate Recomwended by Physicians of all schools, for the brain, nerves and stom; TROUBLE IN THE HOME, It is Caused by the Attentions of a Rejected Suitor, Silas Hanson was arrested on the charge of assault with ntent to rape Mrs, L S, Lo- zler, ‘The latter is the wife of a motor car con- ductor and lives at 809 North Tweaty-second street.

A revolting story hias just boen made pub- lic from No-Man's land in _the northeastern part of the city. Jonn Kelliry, formerly of Omaha, after his wife died, a_year ago, re- moved to No-Man's Land. His daughter Minme kept house for him and his two sons. He did carpenter work, whilo the boys worked in the packinz houses, The father has left, and this is the cause as related by the unfortunate girl. For some tine the inhumun father has been trying to prevail on his daughter, only fiftcen years of age, to submit to his passions. The little girl, however, resisted his advances and concealed from her rolatives the indignitios to which sho had been subjected. 1he manifest sorrow of the girl, however, caused her brothers to ask if anything were wrong, Monday last, the latter returned home to find her in tears and in bodily ‘pain, showing that she had been cruelly abused. Concealment was no longor possible, and the girl told her brothers of her father's attempted outrage and her resist- ance. Being unsuccessful in his attempts and fearing punishment, the brutal father fled and hus not since beéen seen. Knichts of Pythias.

To make the face perfectly smooth requires notonly the removal of the hair but a portion of the cuticle also; and a close shave means the remo of a layer of skin all around. Tho blood vessels thus exposed are not visible to the naked eye, but under the microscope each little quivering mouth, holding & minute biood drop, protests against such treatment. Thie nerve tips are also un- covered and the pores are left unpro- tected which makes the skin tender and unhealthy. This sudden exposure of the inner layer of the skin renders a person liable to ha%é colds, hoarseness and sore throut. el U .

H went to Australin some twenty-five years ago, and returned in 1835 with a urge fortune, which he began to spend very freely, He purchased valuable articles,and invaviably destroyed them. A gold watoh was smashed up the mo- ment it was bought, the back of a silver watch wus wrenched off, so as to be more convenient for winding up, the straw was tuken out of a new mattress for pig bedding, springs taken out of a new easy chair, shelves out of the house for firewood. clocks broken . up and thrown away, bread burned daily in the five, legs of mutton and sides of bacon were buried in the garden. valuable plants and trees were bonght and chopped up. He built a greenhouss and knocked it o piaces. A little pig that refused to be driven up-stairs where a bed had been prepared for it with great care, had its career ended by a blowon the head with a hanmmer- He died a poor man, in fact,a pauper, and was buried by the parish.

The Invention of Chewing Gum, “When chewing gum was inyented,” said a prominent specialist recently to a New York Herald reporter. ‘‘an estimable boon was conferred on den- tists. 'Tho gum does clean the teeth, it is true, but it pulls the plugs out of them. That1s why the dentists like it 80. The Brooklyn man who has made a fortune out of chewing gum was trying to discover in the juice of the Mexican tree he now uses for thig gum a substi- tute for India-rubber. His substitute was a failure. Somebody gave him the the idea of providing idle jaws with something to chew on,and lo, it all turned to gola!” Samples of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine at Kubn & Co.'s 15th and Douglas, cures beadache, nervousness, sleoplessness, nou- ralgra, fits, ete. Politics and Literaturs, In a recent intervie ¥ Emila Zola, the French novelist, said: *‘I have always instinctively kept ¢ of politice man cannot be a politician and a liter- ery man at the same time. These are beginnings who strive in different s for the same goal, that is,to be known and lauded by the multitude.” QGeorgs Wilson's mammoth minstrels opened at Boyd's opera house Iast night to an excollent audience and gave a porform- Anoe that was highly enjoyed. Mr. Wilson has greatly improged the scenio effect of the first part with plush decorations, rioh hang- ings and gorgeons costumes. He gives it the titlo of “Derby Day in England,” and has all the end men except himself and Leow Beneaiot dressed to represent jockoys. The band is seated under a canopy, the colors of which correspond with those worn by the tamborine and bone players. The music in this part was good, the topical songs very clover, and the jokes mostly new. Wilson's latest vocal effort “Take your foot out of the sand ana stick it in the mud,” mado a hit and won him two encores. The specialties, composed princi- vally of song and dance turns, Wore as artis- tic, neat and refined as any that have been seon hore. Howe and Wall, a musical towm, played skilfully on many instruments; sard and Lucifer, o pair of acrobats, formed some wonderfui feats; Georie Wil- 80n gave his old time act, and the programme olosed with a s titled “Plantation Mis- haps,” 10 which Hi Tom Ward and the Ful- ton trothers do some amusing work in the tumbling line.
