The returns from Tuesday's election came stringing along into the county auditor's office yesterday, but it was not until about 8 o'clock in the afternoon that the last ballot box was in from the country districts and the results of the clection figured up with any certainty. Ail during the morning the | democrats claimed everything in the county, ] but the more returns that came in the more cautious they became in making any broad statements. At noon it was conceded by all that Boies was in the lead in the county and that most of the democratic candidates had been elected, Dr. Jennings, republican can- didate for coroner, was uwarded a majority of 150 by common consent, and John T. Hazen, democratic candidate for sheriff, a majority of fifty, the estimate being based upon the returns made in 1892 in townships where the official report had not been turned in. When the returns came in from Waveinnd township in the afternoon it was found that the estimates would have to be changed, and that Scaulan, Hazen's oppo nent, would be the gainer by the change. Finally all the townships were heara from, BENNISON BROS, Extraordinary Bargains for Today, This (Thureday) morning we place on snle 200 fine all wool dress patterns of beautiful hop sackings, French serges, fancy diagonals, illuminated cords, and net one yard worth less than 75¢ and up to $1.00 yard.

Mujorities Cut Down Although this was not very satisfactory to the republicans they had the sagisfaction of knowing that Boies' majority it Pottawat- taviie county had been cut down from about 1,500 two years ago to a paltry 350 this year, and that, too, in a county whoso democratic majoritics have come to be considered a fore- gone conclusion. Although Scanlan's aspirations toward the shrievalty seem to have been settled, there possibility yet of there being change which may land him in the coveted vosition.

A uple of votes differcnce may topple tho majority over in Scanlan’s direction or may increase Hazen's wmajority, so that nothing positive can bo told until nexv week as to who will feed the county prisouers for the next two year: Mistakes Made by Some One. There is a chance for Scanlan to squeeze in in another maner. In the First precinct of the 1ifth ward a ballot was found Tuesda, night, in w h the one who cast it had evi dently been intending to vote the str: democratic ticket with the exception of sheriffl. A check had been placed opposit Scanlan’s name, and then, in order to be per fectly sure that there would bo no mistake, the ‘man scratched Hazen's name out and wrote Scanlan’s name in besideit. The Jjudges counted the vote for Huzen in spite of the scratehing. Scanlan’s friends claim that this vote should have been counted for Scantan, for whom it was the evident inte tion of the one castiug it to vote, If this position is sustained the majority of one will be found in Scanlan’s favo In this same ward there w than_ seven votes in which the demoeratic, prohibition and populist portions of the | ticket had been scratehed out, the voter ap- ntly laboring under the misapprehension s all that Wils necessary Lo cust a straight republicau ticket. These tickets, of course, wero all rejected.

Men who had not lived in the state two months were marehed up to the polls and voted and paid their price. One of the most notorious thugs in the city, living in the Second ward, was taken over into the Third ward and allowed to cast his vote, In the Second precinct of the Fourth ward a schemo was practiced which enabled dis- honest voters to evade the provisions of the Australian ballov system and sbow their ballots to the men who bribea them, The latter would pin a challenger's badge upon his coat aud take up his position inside ihe palling room, as he was allowed to do by law. The man he had bought would step into the vooth, mark his ticket and fold it as he came out, holding it up as he did so in such o position that tho “‘challenger” might see that ke was delivering the goods for which he had beon paid. The names of sowe of these lawbreakers are known to the republican party leaders, und it is not at all unlikely that eriminal prosecutions will be iustituted agpiost them.

Any- body of the present ggneration who ever lived in Kentucky will remember old Joe Morrison's family,, The family con- sisted of Joe and his wife and six sons and three daughters. Joe stood 6 feet 4 in his stockings and weighed 210 pounds. His wife was the same height exactly, but she weighed 266 pounds. The oldest son, Tom, was alsg 6 feet 4, and he weighed 286 pounds. Jim topped his brother Tom two inches in height, but he wasn't as heavy by seventy pounds. Their sister Surah was a slim gir weighing only 155 pounds, but she co look over the heads of both Tom and Jim, for sho stood 6 feet 64 inches. “BBut John was the big boy of the fam- ily. Heonly lacked an inch of being seven feet high and he weighed 300 pounds. Sister Mary wasa midget of U feet 2 and only weighed 149 pounds, Elijah wasn’t very tall, either, being the same height as his sister Mary, but he was of pretty fair heft, tipping the scales at 212, Matthew was 6 feet 2 also, and weighed 220, while Lli, standing 6 feet 4, weigned loss than 200, The youngest girl, Martha, was 6 feet 3 and 160 pounds in weight. She would undoubtedly have been the giant of the family, for that was her height and weight at the age of 14, & fow weoks before sho died. When these measuroments were taken, a fow years ago, the family was all together, but since then old Joe and his wife have died, and the boys and girls were mar- ried and scattered about the state. I don’t know what their progeny have dono to keep up the family reputation as to size, but I'll bet on ‘em to keep up the record.” P — SPOITING THE UNINVITED. Indispensable Man at the Door of the Four Hundred. A varty by the name of Johnson has made himself indispensable in New York social circlos. The Herald relates that Jehnson made his debut in the early '70s. He witnessed the advent of McAllister- ism: the movement of the Delmonico balls from Fourteenth street and Fifth avenue to Twenty-sixth street. He saw the enormous influx of wealth come in from the west. He watched visiting and invitation lists leap from 300 and 400 names to 2,000 and 3,000, His duties be- came as multitudinous and harrassing as those of the chief of stail of an army on a war footing. To the duties of at- tending the door at all impor- tant entertainments ho gradually added those of distributing invitat of supplying dly partof the wi ing force, of providing tents, canopies, carpets—almost anything but the guests and feast. At his home, says the master, I found society’s Cerberus, the guardian of the innermost portals, the blockade of its choicest bowers, beyond whom no mortal could pass without proper creden- tials, 1 had seen Johnson on duty a thousand times, in faiv weather and fonl at_early morn and dewy eve, bringing order out of chaos, resisting the bland- ishments of beauty and. turning a deaf ear to threa's. I had never seen John- son av rest befora in a big extension arm- chair, with a refreshment table at hand, no recaleitrant “eabbies” to bother him, no shouting required, nothing to do but smoke, pass the bottle and reflect dream- ily on a long and honorable career as the “‘manager” of the great social world of New York. 1 dislike notoriety of any kind," said Mvr. Johnson, with the air of w man who had stood in the way of the public so long us to need no further introduction. “*Why, Mr. Johnson,” 1 claimed, *'1 have heard of men and women who have been down on their marrow-bones to vou; have offered you any amount of money to just let them peek into a ball room whose door you held!” A pleasant look came over the rather stern move-on-there face of Cerberus as he replied: ‘‘That is rather an exa zgoer- ation; but [ have had some funny times at the entrances to the patriarchs and asssmblies, and even more so0 at church weddings and big receptions, such as Mrs. Astor sometimes gives, or at the Claremont teas. Well dressed women and men have often tried to slip in with some such excuse as, ‘Oh, [ forgot my invita- tion, Mr. Johnson;' but women rarely try bluff. The most frequent instances have been those of dressmakers, who are per- sistent in trying to get in, not, of course, to join in the entertainment, but to get points on dresses. Men are rather harder to deal with. Their faces, owing to a change of beard or mustache, ave harder to remembe than women's. But I ravely make a mistake. 1t is very hard to discriminate where there are so many foreigners in town as there have been for the past year. Of course, I don't keep other poeopie waiting while I look up the invitation list, so I have to carry the names in my head, and I know those to the manner born so well that it is not once a year that an intruder passes me.” a “You do not mean to say thatyou carry the names and faces of all society, big as it is now, in your head?" I asked. “Indeed, T do, and not only that, but I know all the marriages and intermar- ringes of society and their collateral relations and all sorts of private infor- mation about people that I have picked up from time to time. “A gort of society Vidoeq, eh?” “By no manner or means, My duties are not to pry into, but simply to ad- vance the interests of society by being prompt and obliging in all my work, but principally in getting peoplo off promptly in their carriages after the ball is over. g “For instance, old Mr. —— comes down stairs at Delmonico’s on a cold wintet’s night and savs: ‘Johnson, 1 want my carriage at once. Ican't keep my daughters waiting in the cold. [ yell, scold and even adjure a bit until Mr, -—'s carriage is at the door. I then ery up the stairs, ‘Mr. —'s car- riage stops the way.’ In the interval »me other people have come down and are waiting for their carriages. In the meantime M, daughters havo 2ot into an animated conversation with somo dude, and their father can't get them to move at any price. 1 am obliged to order their carriage away. It may bo half an hour before I can got it into lino again. Then I'm sure to get a pretty bit of abuse from the father— as if it had been my fault.” “*Who are the worst offenders in this respect?” “Oh, generally the newcomers; the rich people who have come to New York to spend money. 1 get the worst slang- ing always from them—but I'fl used to it. I get my little revenge, though, if I want it, by keeping them waiting som times in a rain or a snow storm. e RAILWAY BSTATION GARDINS Their Cultivation Becomiug Southern California. A fow yeavs ugo theve was hardly a railroad station garden or park in Cali- fornia, says a California exchange, ex- cept 4 fow in the southern partof the state, which were partly or wholly main- tained by private enterprise to help the sale of town lots, Now there are many worth notice, though the state is so large, and so spavsely settled in parts, that no railrond company, however wealthy, could immediately establish gardens everywhere, The rule appears to be that the most progressive com- munities get the first station parks, The Southern Pacific railroad has spent and is spending a vast sum an- nually to beautify choice spots around its principal stations, and it has a wide range of soils to choose from. At Los Angeles, at the main station, the large grounds attract much notice. Two fine desert palms, planted in old Spanish times, still remain. The lawn is set with good collections of semi-tropic trees and other plants, Camphors, araucarias, hukeas, cusuarinas, cannas and caladiums are conspicuous. There is a triangular space planted with yue- cas, cacti and other Avizonian plants brought from the desert. Pomona has s particularly attractive square at the aepot, where roses bloom all winter Ontario and 1nany other towns of south- ern California, and even newly started villages, are making the station grounds interesting, if only by palms, grevilleas and magnolia Along the ocean where the problems beiore the railroad gurdencrs are oiten exceedingly difficult the abundant use of succulents, such as the mesembryan- themums, and of bamboos and eucalypti is quite general.
