VAGER WINS B/ A WONDEFFUL MAJORIT ) Wil ¥ave Nearly 4,000 Over Jim t Jumper—County Ofeers All Elected by Good, Sufe turalities — W the Returus Show. That Pottawattamie county and the Ninth congressional district are republican by a handsome majority placed beyond al possible doubt by the returns that came in yeiterday. The republicans were not pre pared for sweeping a victory, but they wccepted the situaton gracefully, Nor wer the democrats looking for such a crushing lefeat They made no effort to secure com plete returns, for their case was hopeless, and the republicans did likewlie, because they lidn't have to. The republican committee early in the day from the official returns, as they were brought into the office of the county auli- or, claimed that the congressional distric would be republican by a majoiity of and dur'ng the y they found no r changing their estimate The retur Rockford, Washington and Wavelan ships did not come in during the day, but i 8 estimated that Hager's majority in i county will reach 400, an nay in excee of that figure, The entire county ticket is elected by the republicans by major-ties ranging anywhere from 225 to 1,000, such majorities In =& county that has been noted for having at least one contested election a year bein: almost a miracle. Matthews heads the list with majority of about 1,000, and Reed comes next, with more than 900, Saun- ders and Shepard each have a decidedly safe majorlty of 600, and Auld and Kearney are elected supervisors by majorities of between 200 and 300, The reason for the downcome of the majorities on supervisors les in the fact that a speclal effort was made to re elect Black, and with that end in view Hough was slaughtered everywhere he d to be. The only bad news from a republican stand- point was from Shelby county, and that was not bad enough to hurt. Judge Macy cam in from Harlan yesterday and stated that the people of that county put in all of Tue-day night celebrating what they supposed was a republican victory with comfortable majori- ties for all candidates. When they awakened yesterday morning they found that the county had gone democrat'c by a small figure, and that Weaver was credited up with a small majority. There s not the slightest doubt of the elec- tion of the republican candidates for judge of the district court. Everything that could be done was done by the democra‘s to blacken the ruputation of Judges Thorn<ll, Smith and Green. but it was u: for they were too well known. It s estimated that their ma- Jorities will be nearly as large as was that of Hager. The last of the returns came in last even- Ing late, on the county ticket, and here they are Hager, 5, Jority, 324, Green, 5,147; Smith Cullison, 4,603; Ware, Matthews, 5,4 majority, 941, Reed, 5 385; Fenlon, 4,506; Reed's majority, 879, Shepard, 5,140; Parls, 4,743; Shepard's ma- Jority, 207, Saunders, Saunders’ n Auld, 4 Hough, 4,583, was %0 be a Kelley, 4 Wilson, 4,461; Matthews ,221; ajority, 496.

An unfavorable report was made on the proposition to purchase the deluge nozzle set for the fire department, and it was rejected. The city council last evening in speclal ses- sion let the contract for the Oakland avenue paving to Charles Huber at $1.39 a yard, pay- ment to be made in certificates. Wickhan Bros. wero a fraction of a cent lower, but the committee of citizens, who were given per- mission to choose the brick to be used, se- lected Nebraska City brick, upon which Huber had based his bid, Frank Trimble presented a petition with a page of names, asking the council to order the discontinuance of tramp work on the streets and let the street cleaning work be done en- tirely by laboring men, The ordinance vacating North Twenty- fourth street was laid on the table. Officer J. A. Wiatt aked for an investiga- tion, not with a view to reinstatement, but for vindication. Referred to the committee of the whole. The contract 80 for repairing and sidewalks on Main, Broadway and streets was awarded B. A. Wickham, A communication was read from the jani- tor of the Twenty-second avenue school, ask- ing for a number of crossings on the streets in that vicinity. In his communication he stated that he was compelled to carry many of the pupils across the streets in muddy weather, and he feared the young lady teach- ers would next demand his services. The barbers' Sunday closing came up for final consideraton. Two re- monstrances were presented, one of them from traveling men who make this city, and the other from some of the citizens them- selves. Both were quite numerously signed About thirty-five out of forty barbers had signed the petition for Sunday closing, but upon the reading of these two remonstrances the ordinance, which bad been read twice, was killed.

Light Guards Working to vin Quota of Target Prac The Dodge Light Guards are having target shooting every Sunday on the Union Pacific lump. The rules of the Iowa Natlonal Guards provide that each member shall fire fifteen shots before November 30, and that is the reason for the shooting being donc with %o much energy just now. Fifteen shots are first fired by each militiaman at a distance of 200 yards. If he makes a scorc of 49 per cent, the target is moved to distance of 300 yards. If he makes anothe 40 per cent, it is moved 500 yards away and a 40 per cent score at this distance entitles him to be called a marksman. 1 he falls to make 40 per cent on the firs( trial, he is not required to make any mor attempts, although he may do so If he wishes, and the government will furnish him as many rounds of ammunition as he wants. One reason why so much interest is taken 1 making a good record for the individual members is that the result of the target practice counts 30 per cent on inspection, so that on the efforts now made depends in some measure the standing of the company emong the other companies of the state, Some complaint has been made by the church people because the order was issucd for practice on Sunday. They hold that after this subject was o decisively dealt with by President Cleveland it should not have been brought to the front again. Cap- tain W. E. Aitchison states that there was no order for Sunday practice Issued, but merely a request. If the boys do not care to heed the request, they need not do so but may arrange thelr practice for week days. He says about seven or eight of the Guards usually go out each Sunday in charge of a commissioned offic:r.

Y., at the hotel Arco, Wash- Ington, D. C., on Friday, Is the end of a story peculiarly sad and pathetic, says the Rochester Union. It is the case of a man Killed by joy. A true chronicle of a strug- gling inventor whose worn-out life passed away as soon as the success he labored for was within his grasp. He died penniless, and within a week he would have received ,000. Six years ago Mr. Roberts invented a cash register, said to possess marked advantages over other machines. Since that time he has perfected his patents and worked un- ceasingly to organize a company to put the machine upon the market. A number of Rochester business men inspected the de- vice at the Chamber of Commerce during the autumn and were impressed with its value. Last Monday, after several weeks of uncertainty, the formation of the company was practically completed and Mr. Roberts was to receive $50,000 for his invention. He went to Washington to make a final search in the patent office in order to assure the company that everything was all right, His inspection resulted in the certainty that there could be no danger of litigation, and the fortune was within his grasp. The re- lief and joy was more than his poor over- worked body could stand. On Thursday a blood vessel burst In his brain. He fell into a state of unconsciousness, from which there was no hope of recovery. To hasten the end, however, a heavy cold on the lungs de veloped into pneumonia, and he died on Fri- day afternoo Mrs. Roberts, with one of the who had organized the company, to Washington, but arrived too found the inventor dead. — As 1t s Him.

A tabulation of the returns at police headquarters this morning shows that the vote in this city on the consolida- tion issue is, in round figures, 118,000 for and 3,000 against. It 18 evident from re- turns that a large portion of voters neglected to cast their ballots upon this question. It is estimated that the majority in New York City in. favor of consolidation will reach at least 30,000. In Brooklyn the late re- turns show a total vote of 5 for and 52,027 against the proposition, which makes t evident that the people of the two cities have given their approval to the plan of consolidating the two municipalities by a good majority. The scheme for the “Greater New York' proposcs the consolidation under onme city government of New York and Brooklyn, the whole of Richmond and Kings counties, with portions of Westchester and Queens. The whole arca covered by the ‘Greater New York” will compri.e more than 817 square miles. Accord ng to the last census the population of the cities, counties and towns which it is proposed to combine as the “Greater New York' is only a few hun- dred short of 3,000,000, The cities include New York, Brooklyn and Long Island City, then Richmond county and the towns of Westchester, Flushing, Newton and Jamaica, and also covers, under the provisions of the b 1l those portions of the towns of Bast Ches- ter and Pelham which lie to the south of a straight line drawn from the point where the northerly line of the city of New York meets the center line of the Bronx river to the mid- dle of the channel between Glen island and Hunters island in Long Island sound, to- gether with that portion of the town of Hempstead which is to the west of a stralght line drawn from the southeasterly pont of the town of Flushing through the middle of he channel between Rockaway beach and Ashelter island to the Atlantic ocean. In the bill which refers to the subject provisions were only made for an expression of opinion on the part of the people as to the advieability of consolidating, and that is what the vote of yesterday means. The consolidation will not take effect until the legislative provision shall be made upon the subject of taxation, refunding of debts, etc. ALBANY, Nov.' 7.—The total vote and pluralities on the state and county tickets in Aibany are: Governor—Morton, Morton’s plurality, 947.

CELEBRATED THE VICTORIES, Two Hundred Italians Enliven the Early Morning Hours in hlengo. CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—Two hymdred Itallads, members of the Italian Republican club, contrived to make things interesting for four officers of the Desplaines street police station early this morning. The club got out its banners and hired several bands of music and started down Halstead street to cele- brate the close of election. They were in a state of glee over the gains the republicans had made in the country, and many of them were drinking. Several were armed with revolvers, which they fired in the air as they marchzd along. The crowds along the streets through which they passed hooted and jeered them, and the Italians returned the zalutations in kind. At Madison street they turned east on that thoroughfare. John Dempsey was standing on the sidewalk, He shouted, “See the dagos.” A stalwart Italan saw Dempsey and started for him A crowd of the marchers followed the leader and Dempsey was scen running down Madi- son street at the top of his speed followed by a crowd of hooting Italians. He turned into Canal strect, but at Monroe street was aught by the crowd and severely beaten. Tha Desplaines ctreet patrol wagon, with Officors McWilliams and 0'Day on board, came to Dempsey's rescue. They succeeded in driving back the crowd and putting Demp- sey into the wagon. The crowd then close in"about the officzrs, and it looked serious fc hem for a moment. They drew their re- volvers and kept the crowd at bay by firing several shots into the air. Two other offi- cers came to their assistance and succeeded in dispersing the crowd, twelve of whom were arrested and locked up in the Desplaines street station. There was the greatest ex- citement in the vicinity of Madison and Canal streets for a time. Demp.ey was severely but not dangerously injured. ROW AT THE POLLS.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 7..»The partial re- turns received from Indiana indicate that the state is republican by at least 50,000, The republican state committée says it will not be surprised if the plurality reaches 70,000 It Is the most sweeping wictory ever won by any political party in Indiena. The first re- turns recelved last night khowed strong re- publican gains. They came from the labor centers and the democtats @t headquarters expressed the hope that tne tide would turn when the country vote began coming in. Late at night returrs began to arrive from all parts of the state, and from everywhere came the story of gains: The returns thus far received show an average republican gain of about forty votes to theilprecinct.

Following In Toba The symptoms of overindulgence In smok ing are more or less clearly defined, says Dr. Dunn in the Nineteenth Century. They may | be caused in one or two ways—in the upper | classes by smoking too much; in the lower | by smoking too strong tobacco. The toxic | effects of tobacco among the lower classes are comparatively not infrequent. The form which the poisoning takes is that known to ophthalmic surgeons as “tobacco amblyopia The men come to hospitals complaining of loss of sight. Commonly they are found to be bootmakers, or those to whom the opportunity occurs of smoking while In most cases there is werlous failure: of vision. Associated with this is the loss of perception for the colors red and green, which is confined to the cen- tral part of the retina. The diagnosis, how- | ever, having been made, the treatment is | easy enough. Practically this resolves itself into the emphatic prohibition of all smoking It is always best to give the patients in- structions o burn their pipes, As long as an old “trusty friend” is permitted to lie on the mantelpiece or anywhere within sight anl reach the temptation becomes almost Irre- sistible to disobey orders, and in the luxury of renewing a valued companionship to for- &et the strict injunctions against induiging in the habit which had been laid down, Almost invarfably in these cases overin- dulgence is found to consist in smoking half an ounce of shag dally—that is to say, when the surgeon asks the patient: “‘How much do you smoke?’ it {s seldom that any other answer {8 glven than that of “about half an ounce o! shag a day.” The constancy of this reply is really remarkable. ‘Tobacco am- blyopla” is almost unknown in connection with any other form of tobacco than that which is called “shag.” In addition to the amblyopla the patients are distinctly afected with “‘tobacco tremors;” their hands are shaky, they are more or less nervous, and they complain of loss of appetite. Their com- plexions, moreover, are in that condition which may be described as “muddy,” and | there is a characteristic expression of list- lessness in their eyes. But what are the re- ults of the treatment? In most cases the surgeon may speak hopefully of the recovery of vision; provided that the patient absolutely | ceases to smoke, and certain treatment be applied, some improvement will begin to take place in the course of a fortnight. Always very gradually, but generally speaking, surely, the Improvement progresses, until at the end of some wecks the lost sight is nearly or quite regained. Most commonly, however, the surgeon never sees the end of the cases. Generally speaking, as soon as the patient finds that his sight is sufficlently improved to enable him to attend to his worlk Overindulgence co. | spicuous objecte of this movement | Unfortunately, he ceases to come to the hospital, and (he subsequent record of his progress is thus lost to the surgeon. - B —— OVERREACHED HIMSELF. hat it Cost John Ball His Greed. A few years ago there was great excltement in this country, occasioned by effcrts of Eng- lish capitalists to get merican industries, Post. Our to Satiify ession of varlous the Washington the n. pos cays brewerles were most ¢ and many of them passed into the ownership and control of English syndicates. But the transfer was not effected without protest. fears were expressed by numerous newspapers and public men that the consequences of such a change would be injurfous to this country. In reply to this suggestion it was delicately Intimated that In making bargains Jonathan was not at all likely to be overreached by John; that the properties were being sold for cash, and that the Increase of mo: in the country was a very desirable thing. So, in spite of opposition, the sales went on for some months, and brewcries flouring millg, ete.,, were purchas:d by Eng lish syndicates at valuations sidered in excess of those placed on them by assessors for taxes in the municipalitics where they were located. In other words, the owners got their prices and the buyers were satisfied Both sides were, therefore, in a happy frame of mind. But this mutual felicity was not destined to perpetuity. Almost every gale that sweeps from the east brings to our ears a wail from the English buyers. They claim that they paid too high prices for the cov- eted properfles. Worse than that, they howl about “deception” and “fraud” practiced by “the unscrupulous Americans.” The earn ing capacity of the brewerics a not come up to expectations. The 1 dividends have not come to hand. don Financial Chronicle says “If any class of enterprise looked promising s an outlet for English capital it was the better sort ,of American werles. showed rapfd development, ministered to a great and growing necessity and seemed to be embarked on a highly prosperous care the majority of the brewery floated over have belied expecta- tions and investors have comsequently been sorely hit, not only in the lo.s of the ex- pected income, but also in the ruinous de- preciution of their shares.” Another prominent British financlal organ irses after this fashion What with American rallroads going into the hands of receiver American mines turn- ing out to be barefaced swindles and Ameri- can breweries unable to meet their fixed charges, capitalists are getting very sick of the land of stars and stripes—especiall stripes. Our enterprising Cousin Jonathan does not give us much of a ‘look In' when he comes over here to scoop up our dollars In nine e 8 out of ten he is assoclated with one of two thing:, an impudent fraud or a colossal overcapitalization.” ““Cousin Jorathan” did not go to England to sell the properties referred to—certainly not to sell mills and breweries John came here—he came, he saw, and he thought he conquered. He exerclsed his own judgment in making purchases. Doubtless he paid too much in some instances, but that was his own mistake, made with his eves wide open If “fraud” was practiced our courts were open to hear complaints and redress wrongs But if, as we suppose was the case, John simply made bad bargains in his voraclous desire to fuvest, he should not make himself ridiculous by velling “fraud.” e Sehool of vournalism. A society called the Institute of Journal- Ists is being organized in England for the purpose of ralsing the standard of admission to their profession. The plan Is to have two sets of examinations, one for pupil associates or apprenti and the other for members. For the first ¢ the examination Includes English history and literature, arithmetic and geography, composition, skill in condensing and “‘general knowledge.” The candidate for the advanced degree is examined in these subjects and also political and gencral his- tory, natural science or mathematics, politi- cal economy, the law of newspaper libel and copyright, verbatim reporting, descriptive writing and the conduct of legal and public business. ave ked-for The Lon- i companies “ Castoriaisso welladapted tochildren that I recommend it as superior toany prescription knowntome.” IL A.
