T every bailot box in the city when the count of the vote begins on Tuesday evening, there wiil be two vigilant watchers on hand to see | that there is no mistake made in the returns on the Republican ticket. This decision was arrived at last evening at a meeting of the presidents of the numerous Republican clubs of the city, held at the quar- ters of the Union League. At the last meeting of the Affillated Clubs a committee of seven was appointed to inquire into plans made by the State and county committees for a careful supervision of the ballot, and last evening it was reported that the State committee had already organized its force of watchers but that, owing to a depleted treasury the county committee had decided not to take this necessary precaution. It was im- mediately moved and carried that the affiliated clubs furnish two men from their ranks for each precinct to assume the duty free of any cost, and to proffer this assistance to the county committee. Chalrman Reuff of that body was caught by telephone and upon behlf of his committee accepted and thanked the patriotic club men for their timels offer, and he promised t> provide necessary passes and badges. 7Jo day the presidents of the different organ'zations will call for volunteers from their ranks and from all other sources to do active duty. In fact the call has been already made fu the folicwing resolution which was jassed last evening at the suggastion of Chairman A. O. Perkins. Frank : Robinson was selected as the captain of the watchers, and all of ttose who are sufficiently patriotic to volunteer in the protective measure mapped out will find him to-mosrow at the State committee headquar- ters on the first floor of the Palace Hotel. All Republicans desirous of having a falr count of the ballots to be cast at Tues- day's election, and to that end willing to volunteer thelr services at’the polls in the various precincts during the progress of the count, are respectfully requested to call or communicate with the undersizned committee at the Republican State Cen- tral Committee headquarters at the Palace Hotel, where they will receive their sssignments, passes and badges.

A Card Issued That Is of More Than Passing Interest to Colored Voters. The following card has been issued to Afro-American voters: The conditions which prevall at this time are isely similar to those which obtained four years ago during the Hstee-Budd campalgn. Then two uncertain factors determined and decided the issue, A1z, the A. P. A. and the An T fro-American vete. An effort has been made to repeat the same political tactics—the alien- ation of the negro vote because of some imagin- ary grievance. We are again requested to do some dirty work for foxy Democratic poli- ticians, The religious controversy has been reopened. Former enemies are now friends, and vice versa. Seeing, then, that the fate of any candldate may hinge on a few hundred votes, It behooves us to realize who our {riends are. What can we expect in the event of Democratic success? Mr. Maguire represents an element which is our natural enemy—the foreign anarchistic element, the enemy of all law and order.

WANTS A FAIR COUNT. His Men About the Election. Chief Lees is determined to suppress any attempt to juggle with the election returns. Last evening he issued’the fol- lowing’ written instructions to his men: All officers detalled for election duty will bring with them the copy of the Election Law, and have it with them at the polls. In each of the polling places thers will be a detafl of police, who will, while on election ser- vice, act promptly in the discharge of their duty. The officer in charge of the poll in the pre- cinct will immediately after the election for- ward his report to the central station of the district, as hereinafter mentioned. The duty of the police officers detailed for each polling place will be the preservation of the public peace, and the enforcement of the laws, particularly those relating to elections and the maintenance of order at and near the polls. Excepting to vote, the officers shall take no part in the election; and refrain from taking any part, directly or indirectly, in the interest of any party or faction. ‘Without permission, no officer shall leave his post of duty except in case of emergency that may require imrpediate pol'fe service. The officer in charye of the-g dlis will wear his badge distinctly played the outsid| on the left breast of¥ nhis\coat. Whenever there will be'a piur flity of voter waiting to deposit their ballot|, the officer shall cause a line o be formed, 'so that each Vvoter may obtain an opportunity to vote in his turn, and without unnecessary delay. No fighting, drunkenness, profane, obscene or abusive language shall be permitted, but every disturbance must be promptly quelled by the arrest of the gullty persons. The officers must be vigilant and diligent in the detection and arrest of any person at- tempting or committing any freud on the franchise, such as voting In the name of any other person or the like; and must promptly arrest all persons who may instigate, cause, aid, or abet such an offense; also all persons Who, directly or indirectly, use any threats, menace, force or corrupt means or device to hinder any elector from voting, or by any means awe, restrain or disturb any elector in the free exercise of the right of suffrage.

PR RS e ke g —_—— A Cow With Four Calves. .The wonderful cow who, with her four heifer calves, is now attracting so wide attention among cattle fanciers, was raised by Christian Blystone of Cambridge Springs, Pa., and owned by him up to a short time after giving birth within a few hours to four heifer calves. The calves were born May 6, 1897, and were ulrtd by a S8horthorn bull. The mother is half Holstein and half Durham, showing the size and build of the Durham and color of the Holstein. At present she is eight years old, and weighs 1360 pounds in fair con- dition. After the birth of the calves she gave sufficient milk to raise all of them up to weaning time. Throughout the winter the calves had a light feed of grain, and at 364 days of age the combined weight of the four was 1860 pounds, there being not ten pounds dif- ference in their individual weights. At present they welgh just about 2000 pounds, and are as large as the aver- age yearling. So near alike are they in all particulars that those who are best acquainted with them cannot tell one from another. In color they are a light red, yellowish shade, each having only a little white spot on the belly, with no | other marks, and never did four ani- + Pr e et + + + + + + 4+ + mals have features and dispositions more nearly alike. On March 15 they were purchased by their present owner, ‘W. L. Mitchell of Erie County, Pa., who is exhibiting this wonderful quartet at the New England fairs this fall.— American Agriculturist. B FATE OF THE SQUAW MEN. The squaw men must go. This painful conzlusion has finally been reached by the Dawes Commission at Ardmore, Indian Territory. Indian Agent Wisdom has been ordered to eject them. From th point of view of the squaw men, thi edict is harsh. A squaw man, be it un- derstood, is a white man who marries an Indian maiden and settles upon her graper(y. Twenty thousand of them have one just this thing and have raised 50,000 children, half Indian and half squaw man, to rise up and call them blessed. The ecivilized tribes of Indian Territory are, according to their wealth per capita, among the richest people in the world. Before the war they owned negro sjaves, and although the war freed them, it was not until recently that they could be coerced by Washington into giving them the right, to vote. But the squaw men could vote. his generation. He married the Indian 51r|. got admitted to the tribe as an In- ian and acquired citizenship, with all its privileges, and so has become a formid- able element in the voting population of the Indian tribes. Being'a squaw man has now become a regular profession or industry In the Western States, with a kind of trades uhbion or squaw man as- sociation to protect their rights. Their walking delegates, however, were caught napping this time, and a man's_enemies are they of his own household. For it is the Dawes Commission and not the In- dians themselves who will drive them out of this good land, whither they have gone to possess it, and which they trusted that every place whereon the soles of their feet should tread should be theirs. The property of the squaws is in land and funds held by the United States Gov- ernment, and if the squaw men are to be driven out they will be at a distinct dis- advantage as compared with the squaw | men who come over from FEurope and marry wives in New York and then go back home with wives, property and all.— Baltimore Sun. —_—— AN AMERICAN PUPIL. Pupils are a fruitful source of amuse- ment. I once had an American pupil who refused point blark to do a single thing told her. She knew everything far bet- ter than 1 did, and talked in the most sciéntific way about the structure of her hands, which, as far as I could see, dif- fered in no way from those of any one else. I humbly suggested that it wasn’t necessary to be a professor of anatomy in order to teach-Chopin's nocturnes. But my remark made no impression whatso- ever. I have never been so thoroughly snubbed in my life. I was, however, to have my revenge. One day she arrived at my house rather earlier than usual, and began looking aver my books. Amon; those lying on the table was a volume o poems by Matthew Arnold, which he had given me himself, and in which he had written a few very charming words of dedication. P As I came into the room she addressed me in a voice in which I thought I de- tected a tone of disrespect hitherto co spicuous by its absence. ‘‘Weil, I never she said. ‘“So you know Mr. Matthew Ar- nold! Well, I declare! I guess he thought & good deal of you, or he wouldn't have paid you such a stunning compliment. I presume you know several distinguished people. Well, I dldn't think you did, that's all. I presume you're proud of that book?' I told her she presumed perfectly correctly, and I am bound to say that during the rest of“the lessons she behaved most politely to me. 1 shone with a borrowed light, but what did that matter?>—Cornhill. y —_— CYCLISTS AS SPORTSMEN. The wheelman himself can hardly be held answerable for the death of a rab- bit which bolted inte his machine -as it stood by the roadside, and broke its neck; and there was contributory negligence, as the lawyers say, on the t of the cat which tried to go through the wheel of a passing bicycle, and gave the rider a bad fall at the cost of its own life. Much more noteworthy than either of these was the achievement of a cyeclist who, while scorching along the road (he must have been scorching) ran into covey of partridges and killed one, his wheél passing over its neck. The only way in which this curious accident can be explained is to suppose that the birds were ‘“dusting” at a bend in the road, and that the cyclist's approach, concealed by the hedges, remained undéteoted till e enemy was literally amon; et Chambers Journal. & them.- —_——— WHEN THE FISH LIAR WAS HIM- SELF.

Why, When the Rondout Creek fish lar ‘was himself and felt TM that eel would have pulled the boy into the creek and swam down the Hudson, and towed the boy across to the east shore, where he would have tled him to a tree, taken his Jackknife out of his little pocket, and, after extracting the hook from its jaw, would have gone wriggling back to tell the boy's father where he was, and offer to tow a boat across for a dollar and a half.—Albany Argus, The_squaw man is wise in | ENGLAND GETTING -~ READY O FIGHT Orders Mobilization of Troops.

The defense com- mittee will meet to-morrow. The Daily Chronicle this morning professes to have “important military news which it would not be advisable to publish without the sanction of the ‘War Office.” confirms the report that the Govern- ment will instruct Major Marchand to return to France with his expedition from Fashoda by way of Jibutil, on the Gulf of Aden, “the only route con- sistent with French dignity.” The paper expresses the hope that the national flag “will not again be in- volved in such small colonial enterprise until success is assured beforehand, both diplomatically and b; v il v y adequate | MIND READING IN COLORADO. The practice of mind B, Seorge in the Count ge,” sa eorge, “I am mind reader and have fully mnfi’érgé“’ffié subject of mind over matter. Recently I | went Into St. Mary’s Cathedral, on Stout | street, to test my mental organs, which reading landed J. Jatl. ing and I saw at a glance that he expect ed that I was fimng to attempt to Sob the box on the wall, which was labeled ‘For the poor,’ in which people drop their con- tributions. MY insight into that man’s mind was as clear as a glass; I could see that he was saying to himself, ‘George is going to rob the box.’ ‘When I had fully convinced myself | that my judgment and mind reading were | all right, I walked up to the box and dropped a plece of paper in. That was done simply to see what effect it would { have on the mind of the man who was watching me between his fingers. When I dmgped the paper in I read what he t. It was: ‘Georgc i commencing to rob the box.' Then some other people. two wemen and a man, came in, and right away I saw that they, too, belleved that 1 intended to steal what was in tne | box. Of course, it is more difficult to | read the minds of four people at once, as, | in such cases, matter being present in | such superior force, has a great advan- tage. So on this account, I had to repeat the experiment at the box in order to pain control of the four minds that were com- { bating mine. “Then, just before I had gained com: plete control of the situation, the polic man came in and placed mé under ar- rest. It was not right to do so, from a humanitarian standpoint, and, in additfon, it seemed a very interesting experiment.

I desire to call the attention of the farmer or countryman to a fact that many have never thought -of, which may tend to abate their hostility toward the cities. It is this, to wit: While it is impossible for a rich and prosperous farming country to surround a city with- out contributing to the prosperity of said city, vet it is possible for a city to be lo- cated within the borders of a State and | grow to be rich,. prosperous and large, | Gnd to add great_value to the lands i around and to the State without receiv- ing a corresponding value from the coun- try of said State. In fact, such is always the case where the city is large. For instance, the great city of New York is not indebted to the country or farm lands of New York for one-hun- dredth of her prosperity and wealth. She reaps her wealth not only from all the States of the Union, but from all the civilize@ parts of the world; yet she does not contribute a dollar to the payment of current expenses and State debt of any State in the Union, or any part of the world, except the State of New York. She dg(ves in her immense wealth to be taxed solely for the State of New York thereby_relleving each and every farmer in the State. St. Louis reaps a majority of her prosperity from other States than Missouri. New Orleans reaps four-fifths PARIS, Nov. 6.—The Matin to-day | ulstana, and gfid she bas re of whatever wealth and prosperity s has from a half to two-thirds of it from Arkansas, Mississ- ippi, Southern Missouri and Southern 'lgentucky: vet she does not contribute a dollar directly to the payment of cur- rent expenses or State debt of any of these States.—David A. ‘Wells in Apple- tons’ Popular Sclence Monthly. — e IN THE WRONG SHOP. “Are you the doctor that makes new bones gyrow'.'" asked a man Wwho had waited a long time in the outside office £ a leading physician. % am an‘ogteopmhist." sald the doctor, *4f that 1:hylvhat you mean. “A which?” «T practice osteopathy—the manipulat- and mending of broken bones. ferrect. 1 guess I've had as bones broken as the next man, an it you can fix me up good as new I'll be much ohleeFed and pay the bill hansum like- wise.” “All right,” sald the doctor, as he led the way 81ntn his private office. ‘Just sit down in that chair and relax. “How? 5 ““Let your muscles loose.

The Tiflis journals are warning tour- ists agalinst traveling in\the Caucasus, and especiallv in the Transcaucasus, without an armed escort. On August 26 nine highwaymen held possession of the small ravine Gasluch, in the neigh- borhood of Adshikend. The leader of this band was a Tartar, Rabi Nadshas- Ogly, and from 5 o'clock in the a(lm"-’ noon until 7:30 the robbers “held up every carriage and vehicle that went along that narrow defile and quietly took from the occupants money and valuables. Five members of the band, armed with Peabody revolvers and long daggers, and clad in the costume of the Khirgese, were told oft to examine the unfortunate travelers. They were very courteous to the ladies, and examimed the men only. The leader was especi- ally courteous, and took great pains to see that the ladies were not robbed; in fact, he even went so far as to restore to several husbands ltheh; valuables on the entreaties of their wives. During the two hours and a half the robbers got possession of 2000 roubles and a great quanity of valuable ob- jects, for in that time they had stop- ped a dozen vehicles of different kinds and had plundered nearly fifty persons. The Caucasus Journal expresses as- tonishment at the cowardice of the vic= times, among whom there were many strong men who had revolvers and other weapons with them. A coachman was the only one who wished to offer resistance, but he alone could not do much, and he was pulled off his box seat and soundly cudgeled. As the as- sistant of & chief of police drove up with his wife and child and learned what was going on he seized his re- volver and wished to fire at the rob- bers. He was at once stopped by cries of “Don’t shoot, for heaven’s sake; you will hit some of the women and chil~ dren,” and a man rushed forward, and, snatching the weapon from the assist- ant’s hand, hid it, so that the robbers might not see that he had intended to fire upon them. None of the vehicles “held up” by the robbers was allowed to proceed on its way. At last a lady traveling in a car- riage with her husband and two little children grew tired of the long delay and approached the chief of the robbers with the prayer that he would let them continue on their journey. The latter dréw his watch from his pocket and re- plied: “Wait, please, for another fif- teen minutes; by that time I expect two more carriages. We will just look over them and then we will let you all go on your various ways.” In a few min- utes the carriages appeared, and after they had been overhauled by the high- waymen the chief sald to his victims: “Now you are all free and can continue your journeys, but first of all we will make our escape.” They quickly mounted their horses and at once dis- appeared. — e Little Alice, in an overflowing love for a baby sister, showed one day a disposition to bestow sly pinches wher- ever surface for attack presented itself. The feeling of velvet skin between her thumb and finger seemed to give heartfelt enjoyment to Alice, but the pinches were distinctly resented by the newcomer, Whereupon mamma inter- vened with a reproachful question: “You wouldn't dare pinch her— would you—when you've just one only little sister?’ was the quick reply, “If w = : 4 hr;‘?:\?o little sisters, might I pinch f Memphis it can be e of her prosperity from other States than| one?” (' It pours Electricity into the vitality and restoring all the organ: IT MAKES MEN STRONG.
