Special to Republican. NEW CASTLE, April 2, 8 a. m.—Returns from all the prtcincts in Henry county except one, which is conceded by l»oth parties to be a stand off—give Johnson a majority of 200.
E. E STOKER.
Special to Major E. P. Thayer. NKW CASTLE, April 1. E P. THAYER, JR: —Returns partly in. Indications are that there will be a majority for JohDson of about 200.
THOMAS B. MILLIKAN.
The above special from Mr. Stoner and the one from Mr. Millikan, who was oae of Mr. axon's chief managers in Henry county, both indicate that Mr. Johnsou's majority will be about 2u0. There were some surprises to both sides. Johnson carried 11 oat of the 13 townships by majorities ranging from 12 in Fall creek (Middletown) to 123 in Wayne (Knightstown)
Wntson carried oaly two townships, Dudley and Henry (New Castle,) and tbe lat er by 220 when bis friends had expected 400. Wayne gave 123 for Johnson when 250 was expec ed. Middletown also surprised Watson's friends by going 12 for Johnson There was a very lar/e vote aed claims are made that a good many Democrats vored, especially in Henry township, where the vote is said to have run up to 936, where only about 750 were expected, as the total Republican vote in 1894 was only 725.
The Central comm ttee meets todt.v to canvass the vote, and Mr. Johnson wil be allowed to Dame the Congressional delegates.
Thus ends the greatest Congressional contest ever waged in Indiana, and it has been a great fiaht. all along the line. The result has been, the four old counties go with their favorite, Henry U. Johnson and the four new ouea with James E. Watson, but the final result is 125 votes for Johnson and 96 for Watson. The chances were in favor O' Mr. Johnson from the start, but Mr. Watson and his friends put up a great fight.^ Mr. Johnson's reco*d as a lawyer and Congressman has never been assailed, he is a scholar and a statesman and stands ready, fearless and able to champion the cause of Republicanism, Americanism and few there be who can st^nd in the list against him. The old Sixth district can, and will be proud of her Congressman.
A KABi'.OW ESCAPE.
At the Knut Street B-iilroad Crossing. Last night about 6 o'clock as Mrs. J. C. Meek went to drive across the railroad track at East street, tha rust train came along and she came near getting run over, as she heard no warning and could not see the train. A buggy passed over just in front of her, but had she kept on she certainly would have been killed. She succeeded in checking Che horse, which then whirled around and ran away with her, She, ho wever, guided it into a fence and fflftnaged to hold it until help came. It was a close call. By placiag a watchman at the Eisfi street crossing which is now much used, the railroad company may prevent some one of our citizens being killed. A big damage suit would cost them much more than maintaining a watchman, but where human lives are taken into consideration, money dees not count. Let a watchman be placed at East street.

IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO.
Nor had he even come a-wooing.
"Give me a kiss." Her lips in shape To tempt a saint did thus beseech him, While he seemed planning an escape
To some place where she could not reach him.
"Give me a kiss, just one, I pray." Her fond insistence ill did servo her. He looked askance and moved away,
Scared and disgusted with her fervor.
"Give me a kiss." Each coaxing word But helped anew to 'fright and pain him, Because he was her brand new bird,
And she was starting in to train him. —Madeline S. Bridges in Ladies' Home Journal.
WILD HORSES.
Their Capture an Industry In Australia, Wliere They Abound. As a rule, the herds number from 10 to 12, made up of mares aud oue stallion. INO stallion will allow auolher stallion in his herd, aud stubborn fights frequently occur between horses owing to this. The beaten males, after being expelled, join herds exclusively of stallious. On any herds being, sighted by hunters a good idea can generally be formed by the experienced man as to which route the animals will take in their way to the rugged hills, for which they invariably make when disturbed. A scheme is mapped out to cut them off if possible, and the party scatters, each to take up his allotted position. Of course while doing this every advantage is taken of the natural inequalities of the ground, so as to escape observation. When the alarm is given, however, all need for caution is at an end, and each hunter puts his steed to full gallop. The stallion, the head of the herd, boldly comes out to meet him, and endeavors to distract attention from the rest.
In some rare instances he is lassoed and captured at once, but he generally manages to rejoin his wives, which by this time have trooped into single file, with his favorite mare in the lead. Should the herd be turned and get into difficulties the stallion takes up his position in the van, and the great object is to cut him off from the rest. Should this be accomplished both he and the mares become confused, and tbe lassoers often manage to make two or three per man. Instances have been known where horses have been thrown to the ground by the haunter's giving a violent jerk to the animal's tail when it was making an abrupt turn. When this quarry is brought down, either by this method or the use of the lasso, the rider jumps from,, his stead wM™.

"Give me a kiss," she pleading said. He heard, unmoved, her warm sweet suing. Although to her he was not wed,
handkerchief is used when there is nothing else procurable) over the prostrate horse's eyes and straps up one of his fore legs securely. If this is properly done, the animal may safely be left "until called for," for no horse thus secured can stray far.
Should a man be so unlucky as to capture a branded horse or a foal running with a branded mare, he cannot keep it, but all others become the property of the hunter, and after they undergo a rough and ready process of breaking in, they are sold at prices ranging from £1 5s. to £15. The later figure, however, is seldom reached, unless in the case of exceptionally fine stalliona Great numbers of these horses die from starvation in the wiuter time, but still the herds show no signs of diminution. —Chambers' Journal.
Therapia, the Kewport of the East. This JS'ev.-pcrt of tho east was found some centuries ago by the Greeks because of its invigorating climate—Therapia signifying health—and today is still the refuge in the summer heats not only of liuiuy of the pashas aud ether high Turkish diguitaries whose palaces line the water front or crown the hills near by, but of scores of European wayfarers and strangers who want more air and less dog than dan be found in Pera.
Here, too, are the IIGUSGS the several foreign embassies, English, German, French and the others, their yachts aud dispatch boats lying at ailchor almost in front of their gardens, the brasses glistening in the sun.
And the charm of it all! The boatd' crews of Jack Tars in their white suits rowing back and forth, answering calls from the shore. The blue water—as blue as indigo—dotted with caiques skimming about the dogcarts and landaus crowding tho shoi'0 road, with footmen in gorgeous Albanian costumes of white and gold, and with sash and scimiter—all make a scene of surprising brilliancy and beauty, unequaled by any other similar spot in Europe. Diplomacy is B^ver so picturesque^ as at Therapia.—F. Hopkinson Smith inCen-
