ELECT® (Concluded from page Four.) 004. Bushnell, 96,587; Chapman, DO--434. Younsrstown —The indications at an early morning hour were that Bushnell had carried the city by about 300 and the county by 500. The vote on the legislative ticket in the city is very close and not yet determined. KANSAS. Light Vote Follett anti Returns Are Very Slow. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 3.—Returns have been received from but half a dozen outlying counties out of 105 in which elections were held. In no state were the returns slower in coming in during the last elections, perhaps, than in Kansas, and this year will not be an exception to tne rule. In Kansas City, Kan., the first city of the state, the Republicans have probably elected their entire ticket with the exception of coroner, surveyor and clerk of the court of common pleas, by small majorities. The fusionists claim that they will elect a majority of the 13 judgeships and about two thirds of the 105 sets of county officers. The Republicans claim at least half of the judgeships and a majority of the county officers. VIRGINIA. Xelther Party Polled Anything Like a Full Vote. Richmond, Nov. 3. — The election •tory in Virginia is briefly told. Although there was an unusual apathy, it is estimated that the Democratic state ticket is elected by about 55,000 or 60,000 majority, and that the Democrats have two-thirds of the house of delegates *nd four-fifths of the senate. Barring one little episode in Berkley, near Norfolk, growing out of a Democratic factional fight, there was absolutely no excitement. Neither party polled anything like a full vote. It is estimated on full and partial returns that the Democrats elect 13 out of the 21 senators and 74 out of the 100 members of the house voted for. McCaull, the Republican candidate for governor, did not carry his own precinct. KENTUCKY. Clerk of the Court of Appeals Probably Democratic. Louisville, Nov. 3.—A conservative estimate places the majority of Charles P. Weaver (Dem.) candidate for mayor, over George D. Todd, the present incumbent, at from 3,000 to 3,500. The entire Democratic ticket is undoubtedly elected with him. There is no doubt about the constitutional amendment carrying in Louisville. The returns from the state are meager and unofficial. They show that Shackelford, silver Democratic nominee for clerk of the court of appeals, is leading Bailey (Rep.). The National Democratic vote was very light. Louisville, Nov. 3.—Reports received at state Democratic headquarters from 74 precincts in the state for clerk of the court of appeals: Bailey, (Rep.), 7,134; Shakelford, (Dem.), 6,622; Hindman. (N. Dem.), 468. Covington—Returns from Kenton and Campbell counties, including the cities of Covington and Newport, indicate small majorities for Shackelford (Dem.), for clerk of court of appeals, and for the Democratic legislative ticket. Hopkinsville—This city gave Shackelford (Dem.), 543; Bailey (Rep.), 603. Falling off of about 250 from McKinley’s majority. Frankfort. Frankfort, Ky., Nov. 3.—Franklin county is Democratic by 800 majority and city by 200, a gain over Bryan vote of 600 in county and 700 in city. Vote very light. Negroes kept away from polls or crowded out of booths. Danville. Danville, Ky., Nov. 3. —The city of Danville gives Bailey (Rep), for clerk of court of appeals, 563; Shackelford (Dem. i, 329. This is a Democratic gam of 162 over last year. Russellville. Russellville, Ky., Nov. 3.—Clerk court of appeals, Shackelford (Dem.) carries Logan county by 400 majority. Loss over last year's vote about 300. MASSACHUSETTS. , Returns Showing the Result of the Vote For Governor. Boston, Nov. 3.—Returns from 120 towns in the state indicate that Wolcott (Rep.) will have a majority of between 95,000 and 100,000. Wolcott’s total vote ■will probably be about 165,000; Williams’ (Dem. (about 75,000 and Everett’s (N. D.) between 11,000 and 12,000. Wolcott’s plurality last year was 158,363. Boston, Nov. 3.—The total vote for Wolcott (Rep.) will be about 166,000;for "Williams (Dem ), 78,000, and Everett (N. Dem.), oi about 13,000. The legislature remains practically unchanged. Boston. Boston, Nov. 3. —For the second time, in two years this city, ordinarily strongly Democratic, gave a substantial majority to Roger Wolcott, the Republican candidate for governor, at the state election yesterday. There was, however, a decided failing off in the vote for both candidates, and in this Wolcott suffered more than Williams. With a lead of 17,000 over his opponent last year, the governor this year had a trifle over 5,500 in a total vote of about 58,000. Wolcott’s vote of 31,000 this year shows a decrease of 30 per cent from that given him last year, while the Williams vote of 24.000 shows less than 20 per cent decrease. John H. Sullivan, who last year was defeated for councilor by Isaac B. Alien, a colored man, was elected by a substantial majority over Stanley Ruffan, another colored opponent. IOWA. Republican Plurality Reduced by Democratic Gains. Des Moines, Nov. 3.—Fifty-five precincts show net Democratic gain of 24

per cent. At this ratio Shaw (Rep.) for governor, will have less than 20.090 plurality. Republican plurality, based on late returns, will be about 17,000. showing a net Democratic gain of 47,000. Fifty voting precincts in lowa give Snaw 5,458, White 4,002, Cligget 74, Leland 90. Same precincts in 1896 gave McKinley 7,208, Bryan 4,537, net Democratic gain 1,215. Des Moines, Nov. 3.—Two hundred and forty-one precincts in lowa give Shaw, 28,434; White, 20,957; Cnggett, 378; Leland, 661. Same precincts in 1896 gave McKinley, 37,072; Bryan, 23,771. Only Judges to Fleet. Sioux Falls. S. D., Nov. 3. —Indications are that the republicans have won in South Dakota. Smith (Rep.) is elected judge in the First district by a close vote. In the Second Jones (Rep.) is probably elected by 400 majority, overcoming an adverse majority in 1896 of 1,050. Smith (Rep.), in the Fourth district, is elected. The election of Campbell (Rep.) in the Fifth district is claimed by 1,200 majority. Gaffey (Rep.) is elected'in the Sixth. The result in the Third is in doubt. The Populists have probably carried one district, the Eighth, and Wilson (Rep.) is leading in the Seventh. Rhode Inland Cities. Providence, Nov. 3.—A light vote was polled in the five Rhode Island cities. Democrats elect candidates for mavor in Providence, Newport and Central Falls. Woonsocket and Pawtucket are Republican, they retaining control of the city councils in the five cities also. The municipal election here yesterday resulted in the election of William C. Baker (Dem.) by over 1,500 plurality. , , Every Republican Elected. Port Huron, Mich., Nov. 3. —Every Republican candidate for city offices was elected yesterday by safe majorities. Stevens, (Rep.), for mayor, has 248 plurality over Wellman (Dem.), Wellman had majorities in only three wards. Eight Republican and one Democratic aidermen are elected. Democratic Mayor. Detroit, Nov. 3 —Yesterday's municipal election resulted in a decisive victory for the head of the Democratio ticket, Mayor Maybury, by a plurality 2,100 over Black (Rep.). 'NEBRASKA. Populists Claim the State by a Heavy Majority. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 3.—Nebraska ; yesterday renewed her allegeance to ; to fusion by electing the three candi- ; dates on that ticket by plurealitiesrang- I ing from 10,009 to 25,000. Nothing like complete returns have been received, I but enough are in to measure the result! and indicates a great fusion victory i than that in the presidential year. From fusion headquarters the follow- j ing signed statement of the chairman I was given out: “We have carried Nebraska for the fusion ticket by a plural-| icy of from 20,000 to 25,000. Together ■ with the magnificent victory for the | state ticket, we have carried a majority | of the county tickets. The causes leading to the result is a determination on I the part of the people of Nebraska to de-! mand more and better money through : the free and unlimited coinage of gold I and silver.” Chairman Mercer, of the Republican committee, is sick at his home in Onia-j ha. Secretary Sizer was unwilling to I make any statement in absense of re-! turns but outside of Lincoln concedes ■ defeat for state ticket. One hundred and twenty-four pre- ' cincts outside of Lincoln and Omaha | had been received by The State Journal, j showing a net fusion gain of 1,221. If this ratio of gain is maintained the fu- , sion plurality for the state, outside the | two cities mentioned, will be very close to 20,000. Lincoln and Lancaster County. Lincoln, Nov. 3. —The count is so : slow in the city of Lincoln and country precincts as to make the result in this 1 (Lancaster) county uncertain. Seven ! city precincts complete give Post (Rep.), for supreme judge, 1.033; Sullivan (Fusion), 798; a Republican loss. Forty precincts outside of Douglass county give Post, 4,103; Sullivan, 3,568. Same precincts last year give McCall, 4,305; Holcomb, 3,932. Net Republican gain, 222. WASHINGTON. Great Interest Manifested at the Capital Over the Elections. Washington, Nov. 3.—Great interest was displayed by the citizens of the capital in the result of the elections throughout the country. Early last evening large crowds congregated in front of the newspaper bulletin boards and at various private places where the returns were displayed. In official circles the interest was intense and many inquiries were made as to the results, particularly in Ohio and Maryland. In the absence of the president, his secretary and several members of his cabinet, there was no gathering at the white house where the returns usually are received. Os the members of the cabinet Secretary Sherman, Secretary Bliss and Postmaster General Gary went to their I respective homes to vote. Secretary ; Alger is on a visit to Michigan, while , Secretaries Long. Wilson and Gage and Attorney General McKenna are in the 1 city. They spent the evening either at home or with friends where they became acquainted with the results of the eleci tion. Assistant Secretaries Day, Roose- | velt and Meiklejohn also went to their respective homes to vote. COLORADO. Light Vote Pollert—Women Took Little Interest In the Result. Denver, Nov. 3.—No news has been received from the state at large to indicate whether Hay tor Gabbert is leading. Fine weather prevailed in Colorado, but there was little enthusiasm and the vote was light everywhere. The lack of interest is plainly shown by the fact that the registration in this (Arapahoe) county, fell off from 65,000 in 1896, to 39,000. The women have taken but little interest in the campaign and probably not half of those who voted last year took the trouble to go to the Dolls.

McKinley Leaves For Washington. Canton, 0., Nov. 3.—The presidential party last night received the early returns at the Day residence and at 9 o’clock was driven to the home of Mother McKinley. At 11 o’clock the parry drove to the special train in waiting at the depot to convey them to Washington. All were greatly interested in the returns and none retired | until a late hour. Elects a Republican Mayor. Sacramento, Nov, 3.—ln the city election here yesterday the Republican candidate for mayor, William E. laud, received 1,094 more votes than Hubbard I and 149 more than his three competitors combined. The Republicans elect all civic officers except treasurer and have ■ a large majority on the boards of city I trustees and school directors. Pennsylvania. Philadelphia, Nov. 3.—The incotnI plete figures show an apparent plurality for Beacom, the head of the Republican | ■ ticket, of 145,000, against Haywood’s plurality of 174,264 in 1895. The indications are that McCauley, the Republican candidate for auditor general, reI ceived about 170,000 plurality. Indianian Promoted. Washington, Nov. 3. —Ebon N. GilI pin formerly of Jefferson county, Indiana, has been transferred from the office i of auditor of the accounts of the state | and other departments to the office of Mr. Tracewell, controller of the treasury, which carries with it an increase in the salary from 11,400 to $1,600. The position taken by Mr. Gilpin was vacated by Asa McDonald of Richmond, Ind., who resigned from the government service to enter into the practice of law in Chicago. McDonald had been promoted only a few days when he decided to resign. Passenger Train Wreck.**. Sedalia, Mo., Nov. 3. —A mixed passenger and freight train rolled down a 40-foot embankment on the Sedalia, Warsaw and Southwestern road yesterday three miles north of Warsaw. EnI gineer John Minnier was instantly killed. Fireman Charles MeConash had a leg broken and Brakeman William Price, Conductor W. L. Bass and Fred Schwettmaun, a passenger, were badly hurt. Store Throat. zST-'jS. 1° a letter to \ Dr. Hartman. E,i I dated Dec, 27th, Mgr*l 1896, George A. ■J I B.ancliard, of Washington, >f-. Ga.. writes: “My -sjJhR throat had been V'in the habit ol f K V ' >7 S e *■ l ' n R sorH ' : . W every year for 1 ■ the last twenty ' ( ' years, and if any medical skill did tne any good it was so little I did not know it. Two years ago mv wife was down sick two months Tried two doctors, but the cas® was a stubborn one of female trouble. I found in Pe-ru-na not only a good, safe rem edy for sore throat, but one for weak- * ness and nervous prostration. I quit the doctors and purchased a bottle of Pe-rt-ia. and in three days after my wife got up and she has been going ever since, and I have not been bothered with that bad sore throat. It used to last at least fifteen or twenty days. Since we have used your medicine my wife has not lost a single day. and she has gained over fifty younds.” In a later letter, July 22d, 1897, Mr. Blanchard writes: “All of the sickness we have in the family is when we can not get Pe-ru-na. We people in the South think Pe ru-na is a God-sent blessing. I recommended Pe-ru-na to friends of mine that had asthma and one bottle cured them. Whenever PeI ru-na is used it speaks loudly for itself.” Dr. Hartman, the original compounder of Pe-ru-na, has a recent book on chronic catarrh which will be sent free by The Pe ru-na Drug M'f'g Co., Col iimbus. O. Ask youi druggist for a free Pe-ru-na Almanac for 1898. Conditions Most Favorable. Memphis, Nov. 2.—The fever situation in this city and vicinity is most encouraging, the official report last night being two new cases and one death. The weather conditions are most favorable. “Weir Children that are not very robust need a warming, building and fat-forming food —-something to be used for two or three months in the fall —that they may not suffer from cold. SCOTT'S EMULSION of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda supplies exactly what they want. They will thrive, grow strong and be well all winter on this splendid food tonic. Nearly all of them become very fond of it. For adults who fare not very strong, a course of treatment with the Emulsion for a couple of months in the fall will put them through the winter in first-class condition. Ask your doctor about this.

HOW TO FINO OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfils every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing eases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet both sent free by mail. Mention Decatur Democrat and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N. Y. The proprietors of this paper guarantee the genuineness of this offer.

Had to Jump, *7 THE FATE OF A PROMINENT A MARINE GROCERYHAN, P. H. Monahan, one of Petroifs Gftfest and Best Known Ita» Meets with a Serious Experience. " a From the Event ng News, Detroit, Mich.

Prominent among the business men of Detroit, Mich., is Patrick 11. Monahan, who resides at 199 Baker Street. He has been actively engaged in the grocery business for the past forty-seven years, of which forty-two years have been in Detroit. Coming here nearly half a century ago he started into business at the corner of Second and Jefferson Avenues, anil for years catered to the marine trade. From Duluth to Buffalo his name as an honorable, honest boat supply man was well known to all loatmen. No matter what time of day or night, the Monahan Marine Grocery was kept open lor the convenience of the lake boats. He is the best known and oldest retail grocery dealer in Detroit. He has been successful in business by his square dealings, and is yet to be found behind the counter any day .at his large store, corner of Twelfth and Baker Streets. To a reporter, he recently said : “ When we first opened the Jefferson Avenue store we had to work day and night. The vessels that needed supplies, wanted them right off and we had to jump all the time. The reason vesselmen patronized us, was because we filled their orders at once. Every hour counts with them and we had a double set of clerks that worked day and night. I have been hustling all my life. No man can succeed in business without hustling. Some people hustle too much, and I was one of them. •‘About four years ago I had to give up on account of my back giving out. It had bothered me for years. For a week I sat around the house and then had to go to bed. The family physician said that I had worn myself out by hard work. I did not do
