Republicans Sweep the State to the Surprise of Democracy. KANSAS CITY. Mo.. Nov. 7. The most eurprising of yesterday's upheavals was the transfer of Missouri from the Democratic to the Republican column. This change of front was not made apparent until this afternoon, when the returns from the country precincts began" to 'come" In. Heretofore these have shown nothing but strong Democratic leanings, but the returns show that &Il33ourl can no longer be counted In the o!ld Democratic column, for 'districts and counties that heretofore rolled up enormous Democratic majorities have completely change front, and to-night reports are received of Republican victories In Democratic strongholds. - The Third congressional district, which In 1832 gave Dockery 3,463 plurality, yesterday voted for a Republican. Tarsney, in the Fifth district,. in 1592 received a majority o2 5,157. This year he is not sure of telng returned, as Vanhorn claims the district by a few hundred. In the Eleventh "Silver Dick" Bland is elected to stay at home and a Republican will represent the district In the Fifty-fourth Congress. The Republicans have elected entire county tickets in counties which have pot elected a Republican since the war. What the 'Return Show. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 7. From the latest unofficial returns 'received from thirty-five counties in, Missouri Republican gains , of 16,000 are shown and the election of their entire State ticket by a plurality of at least 10,000 Is assured. The lower house of the State Legislature Is Republican, but the Democrats, who have a majority in the Senate, will be able to carry things on a Joint ballot. Nothing definite can be learned, however, as to what their majority is until complete official returns have been received. Returns ' from some of the congressional districts are rather conflicting, but on the whole show a decided Republican gain. At least six Democratic candidates for Congress were defeated and possibly several more will be counted In the Republican column when complete official returns are in. There seems to be no doubt that the following are elected: George C. Crowther (Rep.), Fourth district; John C. Tarsney (Dem.), Fifth; D. A. DeArmond (Dem.). Sixth; -John P. Tracy (Rep.), Seventh; Champ Clark (Dem.), Ninth; Richard Bartboldt (Rep.), Tenth; Charles F. Joy (Rep.), Eleventh;. Seth W. Cobb (Dem.), Twelfth; John - T. ' Mozley ' (Rep.), Fourteenth ; Charles G. Burton (Rep.), Fifteenth. The defeat of Hatch in the First district, by C. NY Clarke, by 400 plurality, is claimed by the Republicans. Dockery claims his re-election in the Third by 400, but the chairman of the. Republican congressional committee asserts that H. C. Orton is victorious by a plurality 'of 400. Bland is probably defeated by J. L. D. Hubbard (Rep.) Republicans claim the district, and the Democrats are not denying the claim. The Second and Thirteenth districts are claimed by both parties. It will take the official returns to decide the resuic there. Stone Give: It l'i. JEFFERSON CITY', Nov. 7. Upon the receipt, this evening, cf a telegram from the' secretary of the Democratic central committee, J. .TV. Zevcrly, conceding the election of a Republican majority to the lower house of the Ocneral Assembly as . well aa the probable election of the entire State ticket. Governor Stone and the other State Democratic leaders gave up the last ruy of hope they had entertained. When sought for an interview on the result Gov. Htone refused to talk, simply remarking: "I don't know why we have lost. I have no opinion to give." GAIX OF OVER 130,000. Republican Plurality in Illinois Will Go Over 12.1,000. CHICAGO, Nov. 7.

Colson, Republican, has over 3.000 plurality in the Eleventh district Judge Denny said to the Associated Press correspondent to-day: "The claim of the Owens managers that Owens has won is absurd. I have won by a safe majority, and any apparent plurality that Owen.? may claim on the strength of precincts held back is based on fraud. All return.' received up to an early hour to-day pointed to my election by a safe majority. Owens and his managers conceded their certain defeat. I propose to maintain my majority against all attempted frauds. There is some strange mystery about the unreported precincts in several counties upon which the Owens managers base their claim." Carlisle's Home Ilepnbllcan. CINCINNATI, Nov. 7.-The Times-Star says: Our Kentucky neighbors In Kenton and Campbell counties are celebrating the election of 'their first county ticket.

Erdman, Democrat, Is elected In the Ninth district by less than 2.C00 majority. The result in the Eighth district is yet in doubt, although on the face of the unofficial returns Hart, Democrat, has defeated Klrkpatrlck. Republican, by a very small majority. Complete returns received up to midnight from all but half a dozen of the sixtyseven counties in the State give Hastings a plurality of 233,278. MICHIGAN 00,000.

Many districts which had not returned Republican legislators for a quarter of a century yesterday elected Republicans. On the State ticket the latest returns Indicate that Michigan has given a Republican plurality of 80,0(0, not more than three counties in the State showing Democratic supremacy. Republicans elect all (twelve) Congressmen by pluralities ranging from 2.5CO to 8,000. The Legislature, which will elect two United States Senators, is overwhelmingly Republican, as stated. Later From the latest compilations of reports from the State, to-night, it Is apparent that Governor Rich's plurality will exceed &0.000.

Iluling. 3,000; Fourth Warren Miller. 2,0u0. Though the Republicans claim Dayton's election by 2,000 Senator Faulkner says he does not concede Wilson's defeat and will not do so until the official returns are all In. Mr. Wilson U resting at his home in Charleston and is taking matters calmly. He has nothing to The Wheeling Register (Dem.) says: Returns from the Second district are very meager. All election officers have gone home. All along the railroad lines in Wilson's district the Republicans s'.iow uniform gains. If the gains keep up in the back counties, Wilson will be beaten by 5C0 to 1.000. Republican by 13,000. WHEELING. W. Va., Nov. 7.

Estee for Governor Probably Defeated by 0,000 or 7,000. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. About one half of the entire vote of California is counted and the result indicates that James H. Budd, Democratic candidate for Governor, has a plurality .of between 6,000 and 7,000 votes. His plurality in this city will probably amount to 10,000. With the exception of Supreme Court Justices and Controller, sufficient returns have not been received to indicate whlah party has been successful with the remainder of the State ticket. The flepubl leans have elected one Supreme Court Justice, Henshaw, and the Democrats the other two. Temple and Bridgeford, the latter being electtd to an unexpired term. Colgan. the Republican nominee for Controller, is also elected by perhaps 6,000 plurality. The returns now indicate that the Republicans have elected six. of the seven Congressmen. MacGuire, Democrat, in the Fourth district, is re-elected, while there i little doubt that Caminetti. present Representative from the Second district, Geary In the First district and English In the third have been defeated. Not more than one fourth of the vote in the First district has been counted, but Barham, Republican, continuts to gain. It Is probable that the successful congressional candidates will be: First district, Barham, Republican; Second, Johnson, Republican; Third. Hilburn, Republican: Fourth, MeGulre, Democrat: Fifth. Lud. Republican; Sixth. McLachlan. Republican; Seventh, Bowers. Republican. There are still no returns to Indicate the complexion of the Legislature. KANSAS POPS ROUTED.

Th latter is Jerri' Simpson's district. The figures are, however, based on estimates, and tho official returns nay materially change them and possibly reverse some of them. Governor LewelUng .iid to-lay: "I do not cor.c.-le the defeat of the Populist x cket.

a majority of 43 on joint ballot. Incomplete i returns make further estimates Impossible.

He says the Democratic losses, as far as reported, If the ratio keeps up, will not defeat Turney. The Republican State committee confidently claims the election of Evans.

Behan announces that the Republicans will contest and shov the American people appalling fraud.

Dr. Campbell talked of the geodetic survey In Indiana, with which he has been identified for a number of years. The purpose of the State branch of the work Is to fix accurately the geographical position of mountains, rivers and cities. When completed there will be an established line through the State from which other surveys may be made of greater accuracy. Dr. Campbell says the government land surveys are for the most part Inaccurate,, and hopes that all of the States cay soon support a greoaetlc survey. The line of the survey which is mapped out. but not yet completed, runs from Louisville. Ky., to LaPorte. Ind. Profesor Emory addressed the club on "The Value of the Study of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics." Professor Emory s.tid there was a tendency to overestimate the educational value of purely speculative studies, whose principles are never to betested. but' the theory of applied mechanics cultivates truthfulness, Fince the truth or falsity of the theory is positively demonstrated by the success or failure of such application. It al.-o tends to balance the minJ. since It combines the abstract and the concrete, giving equal weight to each. Obltunry. COLUMBUS. O.. Nov. 7. Gen. John G.

Engineer McCarthy's Joke In Railroad Dulldlna Days In Oregon. New York Sun. One of the most popular and best-known locomotive engineers on the Southern Pacific railroad on Its branch from San FranCisco to Portland, Ore., Is Dan McCarthy, who has a daylight run through the famous Rogue river valley in the southern part of Oregon. He has been with the railroad ever since It was built, and, in fact, helped to build it up through all that country where the Modocs used to roam In full mastery. McCarthy came from the East, but now nothing would Induce him to return to his old home except for a brief visit. He owns some of the choicest fruit orchards in all that country, probably the best valley in the world for fruit growing. He also owns a gold mine all to himself, which has Just been opened in a cut in the railroad through which he runs every day, and this world's affairs look somewhat rosy for him. McCarthy has many Interesting stories of his early experiences In railroading in Oregon, and the one that amuses him most occurred at a place called Phoenix In the Rogue river valley. i:ot far ' from the prosperous town of Ashland, where he lives. When the road had got as far as Phoenix, about ten vears ago. there gathered one Sunday from "miles around not less than 1,500 persons. Many of them had never seen a locomotive. They came on horseback and in all sorts of conveyances, and It seemed as if there could not be that many persons in all southern Oregon. The curiosity and excitement over the new railroad was tremendous. Inasmuch as the company had a large force at work building the road, and as work there was easy, it was necessary for the citizens to move quickly If they would see the road go through and be on hand to see the first locomotive that came up. The spectators tied their horses to the trees that had been tfelled. and there was j?reat confusion in the throng. As fast as the rails were laid McCarthy kept moving up his engine while the people gathered around to watch his mactiine and its wonderful workings. They Interfered with the track layers to some extent, but that was unavoidable. Finally one old man came up close to the engine and asked If he could not climb up into It a9 a mark of special distinction. McCarthy gave his permission, and soon the old man was sitting in the cab. He was In raptures and could not hold himself in. He exclaimed in the hearing of nearly all those who were present: "Thank God, I have lived to see this dav. I never thought It would come that I should see a locomotive again. I am an old Fortyniner, and have not seen a locomotive since I left the East, so many years ago. Now I am riding on the locomotive. Thank God, thank God." The old man went on In this way for a long time, and had worked un the crowd to a great deal of enthusiasm. They cheered him and thev cheered the locomotive with great zest. . The crowd was interfering with the work, nnd McCarthy thought he would have a little Joke and also see if he could not clear the tracks to some extent. He tipped the wink to his fireman to blow off steam In the liveliest fashion. The old man was beginning his fourteenth oration to the spectators when,-with the noise of a tornado and a terrific snh!, the enelne began to snort and roar. Panic seized the entire thronsc. The horses ran away by the doxen, men fll out of trees, hid thensalves behind bowlders, ran hatless for hundreds of yards, crashed 'through debris. phmn:M through streams, and panting and friKhtened dtapared In the underbrush across the valley. It was every man for himelf and horse3 and wpons mlcjht ro to perdition. The last dav had come for scores of them. Some dronped In the attitude of prayer and others fell flat on thlr faces In the hope of scaping some of the missiles that thev were sure would soon bejfin to fly. The old man. who tMnked God that he had lived to see that day, simplv fell out of the cab window and lay bs'de the engin? umble to get un, and waiting for the end. which he hopd would be without prolonged aeony. No such stampede was ever se?n In that country, and the memory of It lingers vlvidlv with those present to this day. At last the extra steim became exhausted, nd by degrees the crowd began to return. They came cautiouslv at first and kept a resnectful distance. The old man was so bruised that he could not get away very far. He soon plucked up his courage to approach McCarthy and to say, standing on the ground this time: "N'rhbor. I am an old Forty-niner, and I have seen many hardships and have had oil sorts of close calls. I fought all through the Modoc war, and I know what danger Is from Indians and wild animals. I tell vou I have been in some prerty tight fixes, but I want to say I wa never scared to death before." Ex-Srnntor Incrnlla'a Children. Kansas City (Mo.) Star.

COST HIM HIS LIFE ENGINEER'S MISTAKE CAt'SES A ' seniors railway collision. Five Men Killed In an Aeeldent on the II. & O. Two Potal Clerks Dead and Three Injured. PITTSBURG. Pa., Nov. 7. Train No. 5, Baltimore & Ohio limited, coming wes;, rtn Into the first seclon of No. 64. a fast cattle train, at Rosensteel sldlngt two miles east of Rockwood, at 5:40 o'clock this evening, i Six men were killed in the collision and several others badly hurt. The killed are: HENRY RUSH, engineer of No. 5. PATRICK M'CARTY, fireman of No. S. BROWNING, engineer of No.. 61. PIERCE and DE GRANGE, postal clerks. Three mall clerks tere badly hurt though not fatally. The railroad officials say no passengers were hurt. The limited should arrive here at 8:45 and leave for Chicago at 8:53. The cattle train carries cattle from Chicago to Baltimore for shipment to Europe. Both trains were going at the rate of forty miles an hour and came together while rounding a curve. Neither crew had time to Jump or sound a warning. The meeting place for the trains was Pine Grove, three or four mile9 east of the point of collision, where the express should have taken the siding for the freight. For some reason the engineer of the passenger train ran past the meeting place. The express and mail cars on the limited were telescoped and reduced to kindling wool. Only the heavy vestibules of the passenger cars saved them from a similar fate. Fully a dozen cattle cars were plied up In the wreck, killing and maiming many of the dumb brutes. De Grange, Pierce and Llppincott were Jammed between the cars, and two, as yet unknown, clerks were found dead under the debris. Conductor Ward was not hurt, as at first reported. Bush was the oldest engineer In the employ of the Baltimore & Ohio, and well known by railroaders throughout the country. Relief trains were at once sent to the scene. Painters Fall Forty Feet. WASHINGTON. Nov. 7. A scaffold on which four painters were working at 1S12 I street broke to-day and two of the men, W. J. Thecker and James A. O'Brien, fell forty feet to the sidewalk.

SNOW EIGHTY FEET DEEP. Hovr the R tllroads Gnnrd Asrnlnst Snow Slide In the Mountains. New York Sun. It Is the custom of most of the transcontinental railroads to make an accurate measurement of the snowfall for the winter in those places where it is always deepest. This Is in the mountains, of course, and at the highest elevations. Althougn few of the roads are bothered to any serious extent in tne.-?e days by enormous snowfall., owing to the Invention of the rotary snow plow, they make every preparation to meet unexpected emergencies. The snow In the mountains begins to fall In the middla of September on the peaks. It is not till October that it is observable to any extent in the passes such a3 the railroads use in crossing the mountains. Before that time, however, the plows are put in order and raaJe ready for use at a moment's notice. Probably no road that crosses the Cascade range has a more serious struggle with the snow each year than the Great Northern, the newest and furthest north of the American lines to the Pacirte coast. Like some other of the through lines when first built, this road crosses the Cascade range by a switchback system of tracks. It is there that the greatest snowfall occurs. From Oct. 1. 1S3. to April 1. lsM, the snowfall on the Great Northern's switchback was, by actual measurement, eightyone feet ar.d nine inches. It snows almost everv day In the winter there, and often the fall Is a foot in three hours. Still, a deiuy of more than an hour or two on account o( iow, evfii m the severest weather, is unusual. Three tremendous rotary snow P'tiv3 rr kept In constant motion during every storm, ard these keep the tracks l-rwiCiy clear. uae of these plows throws the snow In the air a distance of sixty feet, and so rapidly that the flying snow actually makes it dark to those wad

1 1 raw ride directly behind the plow. One of the engineers of the road, who had much to Co with the switchbach, said to a Sun reporter recently: "There is no longer any serious difficulty In coping with snowfalls, vither in the Rockies or In the Cascades. The chief danger is from snows'.iJes. As you pass over the mountains j-ou will notice that here and there may be seen enormous rathwayf from one hundred to two hundred feet wide, running from the top of a peak straight down a pass below. These paths are ai clean as if mowed with a monter knife. The snow starts with a slow glide that changes to a tremendous speed before it reaches the bottom, and It cuts the timber before It clean. When it all piles up at th bottom it Is a tremendous max of debris. It would require days and days of the most laborou work to clear the tracks cf the accumulated mas IT one of the slices 5houid land cn them. Therefore, It Is one of the engineering problems in constructing a railroad there to build sheds where thes slides have taken place, and where there are indications that they will take plice again. Frequently the sliJes go thundering down the slopes, strike on these stout sheds with a force of thousands of tons, an I then go on their way down to the valley. There is now very little ditliculty from this source, but the precautionary work costs the railroads many thousands of dollars." On the Great Northern t?iere are probably a score of thre snorts In the Cascades. They are rarely more than 1.7k feet long. They are buttressed with the stoutct timber that can be cut ant worked In the mountain?, nnd the roofs are made to ilope so that they follow the grade of the f11J fas far as possible. The tracks are built close under the highest part of the roofs, so as to Interfere as little as possible with the slope. When a slide comes It shoots over there smoothlv roofed sheds with the eae of a waterfall over a precipice. A train passing through, the shed at the same time that a flide was going over would scarcely feel the effect. There would be a trcmen.lous roar and an earthquake rumble, but beyond that the passengers would scarcely know that anything unusual was taking place. However, It tnkes as much engineering work and as much computation of weights and strains to build one of these sheds as it dues to build a complicated trestle, and the eng'ners are Just as proud of them as they are of the finest trestle work. From now on to spring the civil engineers will be busy watching these structures and In assuring themselves from day to day that they are safe and sound In every part. SCIE!VCH l.V GERMANY. Food Stuff Made Oat of Waste Mntfr- , lal "Wood nread." Berlin Letter In New York Evening Post. About Behrlng and his diphtheria serum you all know, of course, by this time, but it may be new that Ehrlich and Wassermann, two other pupils of Dr. Koch, have carried this same line of experiments into another channel. Their experiences havft Just been related In a medical Journal, and physlclms.clalm that these prove that milk, too, after being sterilized,, may be emFloyed, Just as blood serum has been by lehrlng, as a preventive against Infectious diseases. This milk, of course, is swallowed, not injected, and Is not to be regarded as a cure, bit as a prophylactic. Still, this discovery greatly widens the field of observation and of experiment. Leon Llllenfe'd, a young chemist and assistant of Professor Kossel. has made a discovery which scientists here deem of great importance for the future, though la itself It Is, perhaps, not of great moment. He has succeeded in preparing artificially a chemical product which possesses all the properties of soluble peptonei. including those of easy digestibility. Werner von Siemens It was who. In 1SS6. prophesied that chemistry by and by would be abl to prepare, out of waste material In nature, food stuffs, suited to the human palate and stomach. This discovery by young Llllenfeld is looked upon here as the first step In that direction. The second one, perhaps, is the invention of "wood bread," more correctly speaking, sawdust bread, which Is now being baked In a Berlin establishment at the rate of two hundred hundredweight a day. The mixture Is two-thirds to three-fourths sawdust, and one-third or one-fourth rye flour, ity a chemical process the sawdust loses Its texture taste, and liberate.? its saccharine and nutritive elements, which, in combination with the rye flour, are baked Into biscuits and bread. The price of this bread is 5 marks (U.23) per hundredweight. Thus far it has been u?ed solely as food for the horses of the large Berlin horse-car company, one horse disposing of from twenty to thirty-five pounds of this delicacy a day. The Old Lady Harper's Bazar. A picturesque figure Is passing out of P9ciety. If she has not already passed. We seldom, in the lra w.ng-room, meet the old lady. At this moment she Is to be found chief! j' In viliarres remote from the railway, or, if In town, she is apt to belong to the distinctly poorer classes, and to be engagel In pome humble occupation. a3. for example, the keeping of an apple stand, or the selling of newspapers around the ferries or elevated station?. Thus engaged, she wears a distinctive dress, almost a uniform. It consists of a gown of some very dark or neutral tint, with a straight full skirt ending at her ankles, a round waist, no drapery or puffed sleeves, but severely plain and rather shon oner, leaving the wrist free; a little three-cornered shawl over tha shoulders always that and a hood or bonnet protecting the gray hair. These old women are frankly old. They seem to have lived a hundred years, and, never to have been young. Their old faces are crisscrossed like maps with Innumerable fine lines; they bear themselves with, a certain patience and dlgtdty. But they are not In socletj. They are part of the world outside, which does not exist for the-sheltered, guarded and well-to-do. Tney are like the peasants In French pictures, as straightforward, as childlike, as Innocent, as calmly Indifferent to fashion. What have they to do with it? What ha It to do with them? In the strenuous struggle to retain youth or the semblance of it. which is the foibl and weakness of our period, the old lady has a difficult time of It Just now. The masseuse labors to efface her wrinkles, those time-revealing mark, which, bravelyworn, have a beauty of their own. Sr. trie creams and . unguents, hot water and cold water, galvanism and steam, that her sklri may remain as foft. as roe-hued, as flexible as it was at twenty. In this there Is no harm, but, did she only know it, thera are placid old fars among the Friends, and among the Srkers too. which have kept off wrinkles and retained shape and smoothness solely by the spirit's inward light, and peace and help.
