No mark but a cross can be | counted, and it the voter makes a cross, but uses more than two lines, or If hie makes a cross, but adds some other distinctive mark, or if he marks outside the 2ircle or square, it shiould not be counted Every ballot which is so marked by the as that it could be readily identified | should be rejected; that is, If any other mark | be made on the ticket by the voter than the Etatutc cross or crosses which could read- ily b: used as an identifying mark the ticket | must be entirely rejicted, even though the | voter did not intend” the mark for that pur- Dose. Perhaps the most important | decided is in relation to the mann ing, where more than one candidate be elected to the same office. This year two or more justices and constables are to be clected I’ every township, and in most parts of the state two or more district judges are to be chosen The supreme court holds that it one wishes to split h's ticket on any such office he must abandon the cirele and mark all the candi- dates for whom he desires to vote. To illus- trate: If a republican should mark his | ticket with a cress in the circle and then | put a cross opposite a democratic candidate for district judge his ticket should be counted only for the democrats thus marked, and not for any republ.can candidate for that office, and this would be true even if he marked with a cross such a number of republican candidates as would make up the proper number to be elected, | | voter po'nt of all r of vot- Judge, justice, constable or other offices, "he must leave the circle entirely blank and prefix a cross to the nam? of eacn candidate of his choce in the square oppo- site the names for which he wishes to vote.

The city council met in special session Sat- urday evening for the purpose of attending to several matters of Importance, among them the Terminal company's proposition to be granted the right of way on Union avenue. The mayor and all the members were pres- ent. The city clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for grading Fifteenth avenue and paving Sccond avenue, the paving to be of vitrified brick. The list of special policemen furnished by the democratic city central committee for clection day was received and approved. The bids for the Oakland avenue paving were opened. The bidders were the Des Moines Brick company, L. C. Besley, George S. Miller, F. Stimp . J. Hughes, lowa Brick Company, C. E. H. Campbell, L. Bolin & Co., B. A. Wickman and Goodman & Rish- ard. All were referred to the city engineer for tabulation. E. A. Wickman was the low- for certificates. A committee of Oakland avenue property owners was suggested to con- fer with the council and engineer and select the material most desirable. The committes was Lucius Wells, 0. P. McKesson, T. J. Evans, J. N. Casady and James Saguin. Sidewalk bids for repairing and relaying defective walks on Main, Broadway and Pearl streets were filed by E. A. Wickman, John Hammer and J. M. Hardin. The contract to furnish all of the brick required in the work was awarded Wickman at $8 and $8.50 per 1,000, and the bids for doing the work were refrred for tabulation. At this juncture the council suddenly con- cluded to adjourn and go into secret and executiye session as committee of the whole to consider the ordinance granting the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company the Unfon avenue franchise. There was but little discussion of the hat- ter in the committee, and the only thing done was the suggestion of some slight changes in the ordinance. The council will meet again Monday evening and dispose of the matter. Duncan’s Overstocked Sale.

See W. 4. Paulson, ¥ Judge Smith Likes Pop. A Shenandoah paper devotes a column of its democratic space to a scurrilous attack upon Judge Walter 1. Smith of Counell Blaffs. The attack is only worthy of notice because of the ridiculousness of the tiny fact on which alone the charge against his character is made. Rev. Henry Coker of this eity has had for years in his family a favorite English temperance drink, a non- intoxicant, but which in some other respects | resembles beer, and which is used as a sub- stitute for it among those who enjoy the hop taste, but who have conscientious scruples against using anything but a temperance drink. Mr. Coker some months ago induced a local firm that sells soda water, ginger ale, ete.. to place it on the market among other healthful, palatable and nonintoxicating beverages. Many of the leading professional men of Council Bluffs, such as Judge Mc Rev. Dr. Phelps, J. J. Steadmsn, Rev. E. J Babceock and Dr. Montgomery, sa'npled it and | pronounced it all right. Judge Smith was one of those who gave a testimonial to the | manufacturers. Now his democratic op- | ponents are trying to arouse the indignation of Judge Smith’s temperance friends by shouting: “Does not this man eat with publicans and sinners Fortunately at this time, as at all times, Judge Smith is in too good company to be hurt by it.

VALLEY, b, Nov. 4.—(Special)— Mrs. Mary Welch of Bloomington, IiL., came to Wahoo about one week ago to visit her nlece, Mrs. John Riley. When she ar- rived at that place her niece had moved away to some other locality, and her resi- dence_could not be found. Mrs. Welch fs a lady 78 years of age, and has never been a guest of a hotel during her lifetime. While at Wahoo she was cared for by Mrs. Perka, wife of one of Wahoo's bankers, and a dili- gent scarch was made for the missing rela- tive, but with no tidings of her whereabouts, Last evening Mrs. Welch came to Valley, but no trace of the relative could be found at this place. She remained over night with Mrs. C. E. Byars, after being refused lodging from other persons. She left this morning for her home at Bloomington. her niece for more than a year, and she had written of her intended visit. She says that she had loaned her nephew, Mr. Riley, $35 about two months ago, and it might be that they are trying to elude her on that account. Mrs. Welch is a refined, educated lady, but is quite feeble at the present time. ~ She had just enough money to buy her ticket home, besides 30 cents, which she had for- gotten and left under her pillow at the Byars' residence. Miss Mabel Gaffin, daughter of Hon. J. N. Gaffin of Colon, Neb., who has been visiting the Misses Mary and Fannie Miller of this city, departed for her home last evening.

LONDON, Nov. 4.—A bomb exploded ‘o night outside a house in Tilney street, Park lane, two doors from the residence of (he Hon. Sir Henry Hawkins, one of the justices of the queen's bench divisions of her majes- ty's high court of justice. The front of the house was much damaged and the windows on the opposite side of the street were smashed. The house was occupied, but no- body was hurt. The force of the explosion must have been great, as the door of th house was blown In and ths stone steps shat tered. The street was al once crowded by the police. A search revealed the re- the bomb.

Another account of the explosion says the house is the residence of Hon. Reginald Brett, son of the late Lord Esher. Mr. Brett was at his club and Mrs. Brett was in the hall of her residence when the bomb exploded. She was, however, not hurt. The bomb ploughed up a cavity efghteen inches deep below the threshold of the front door, which was blown to pieces. The top step, & slab of concrete, forty by sixty inches, was was blown across the street. The railings were twisted. The sound of the explosion was heard for two miles. lias not yot been sen MARCHING STEADILY ONWARD, City After City Captured by the Victorioug Jupanese Armies. YOKOHAMA, Nov. 4—Advic:s recelved here from the front show that there has been heavy fighting in the country just north of Port Arthur. The dispatches received are briet and are silent on some important points. It appears that Field Marshal Oyama divided his forces. ~While one di- vision landed on the coast of the peninsula, north of Tall-En-Wan, another :division was detached with orders to effeet a landing near Kin-Chow, and to proceed thence and Joln the main body of the army. This operation was a complete success, The Japanese encountered no Chinese warships and the transports reached Ka-Yen-Ko and disembarked troops, guns, horses and muni- tions in safety. Kin-Chow, which fs a walled town and which was believed to be held by a large garrison, ‘was' immediately attacked. The outer defenses were carried by the Jupanese after a few hours' fighting. The Chinese made little further resistance and the Japanese were soon masters of the place. In the meantime the Japaness fleat, which had convoyed the transports, opened a heayy firo on Tali-En-Wan and Kakul-Yo (Kay-Yen-Ko). The fire scarcely ceased for many hours. Covered by the fire from the ships the land forces attacked and captured Tali-En-Wan' in a brillignt fashion. The They also mention that an fmportant naval engagement occurred Saturday, but give no detail. Yesterday was the forty-second anniver- sary of the birth of the mikado. There will be great public rejolcing to- morrow over the victories thus far won by the Japanese armies. Up to the time of sending this dispatch there has been no confirmation of the report of the capture of Port Arthur. Field Marshal Yamagata's army continues fits victorious march. The division under General Tatsumi pushed for- ward and captured Fung-Wang-Ching, as already cabled to the Associated press. The enemy was scattered and fled in the direc- tlon of Taku-San, Kai-Joa and Hoten-Fu. No fighting |s mentioned as having occurred at Fung-Wang-Ching, but it is alleged 300 Chinese were killed at Tal-Kai. Field Mar- shal Yamagata's official dispatch says the detachment _under General Tatsumi has oc- cupled Fung-Wang-Ching, a fort which ranks in importance next to Moukden, The principal portion of the army fled toward Moukden, and the remainder in the direction of Hei-Chen and Taku-San. The Chinese Inhabitants, who have been plundered by the Chinese soldiers, welcomed the Japanese army. The Japanese captures to the present are fifty-five cannon, 1,500 small arms, 20,000 rounds of artillery ammunition, 2,500,000 rounds small arms ammunition, and a quantity of other material. DEFENSE OF MOUKDEN COLLAPSED. A dispatch to the Times from Tien-Tsin says that Fung-Wang-Ching was burned by the Chinese. The defense of the road to Moukden has collapsed. General Sung, with the remnant of his army, is in the Mathien- Ling pass, between Fung-Wang-Ching and Liao-Yang. Winter has set in and snow has fallen in” Manchuria. The dispatch adds that the Japanese cleverly effected a landing at Pitz-Wo (Kin-Chow),” while making a demonstration against the opposite coast of Shan-Tun. They cut the telegraph wires, thus preventing the news {rom reaching the Chinese admiral A Chinese fleet, consisting of fourteen war- ships and a torpedo flotilla afterwards started to attack the Japanese, but was recalled.
