In the Senate it is estimated that there will not be less than thirty-five Republicans, giving a majority of sixty-two on Joint ballot.

The doubtful districts are placed in the Democratic list. According to the reports to the state committee the members of the Legislature will be as follows: Republican Senators.

'Remember the day to keep It holy.' Let us remember especially those who are in sickness and distress, and by acts of practical charitV prove the sincerity of our gratitude. St is a good day to ask forgiveness for our trespasses as well as to cheerfully grant 'forgiveness to those who may have trespassed against us, and it is good time to reconsecrate our lives to the achievement of higher ideals in all that concerns t'ie welfare of the common brotherhood, not forgetting to mingle with our thanks such offerings to the needy as our purses ;vill permit, constantly mindful of the ever present fulfillment of the promises of God t" SAMS OF PK0PERTY.

WHY REPUBLICANS WON

DAMEL E. STORMS GIVES REASONS FOR SWEEPING VICTORY. People Can No Longer Be Stampeded. He Says Talks with Other Politicians. Daniel E. Storms, the newly elected secretary of state, came over from Lafayette yesterday and spent last night in Indianapolis. He is naturally delighted with the result of the election, and especially with what his own county did. "It was a glorious victory," said he, "and the pluralities are larger than the most sanguine of us expected they would be. Chairman Goodrich and Secretary Whlttaker built up a fine organization in the State and did much toward bringing about this happy result. It simply illustrates that the people of Indiana are becoming more and more a thinking and reading people. It puts Indiana in the list of strong Republican States and among the States that will be reliable in the future for protection and sound money. The people of Indiana can no longer be stampeded by catchy propositions advanced by any political party simply for the purpose of getting votes. To appeal to them the proposition must be sound. They will test it and if it Is found wanting they turn it down. "The people of this State absolutely believe in Senator Fairbanks. I have been in almost every county In the State and they are intensely loyal to him. The fact that he was to be either re-elected or defeated was worth thousands of votes to the Republican ticket. He made one of the greatest and most effective campaigns ever made by any man in Indiana. Even the leading business men In the Democratic party have faith in Senator Fairbanks and wanted him returned to the Senate. "I am very proud of the Republicans of Tippecanoe county and am very grateful for the splendid vote they gave me. Will Wood's victory is the greatest of all. He was attacked on all sides, but triumphed completely. nnnns aanans. mmmm James S. Barcua at the Drnhon. James S.

Tender Message to a Sick Officer at His Home In Maine. Bangor (Me.) Commercial. In the several articles which the Commercial has published during the last few weeks regarding the history of the Second Regiment of Maine Volunteers and its record of heroism in the war for the Union, one incident has not been irientioned, which deserves to be spoken of now that Its veterans are with us to revive old recollections and live over again the days of the past. It relates to the gallant General Jameson, the first colonel of the regiment. The fortunes of war called him early Into the heart of the stnte. When his regiment had been driven back from the batteries of the enemy at the first battle of Bull Run, leaving their wounded behind. Colonel Jameson called for volunteers, and, leading back a little band under a steady fire, the men brought off in their arms the injured and helpless. It was for gallantry in this engagement that he won his brigadier's Mar. Later he commanded splendid regiments from New York and Pennsylvania in the battles of Yorktown. Williamsburg -tu! Fair Oaks. General Jameson became so worn out with heavy marches, the fatigue of camp life, the exposure and hardship of battle and the personal exertion of caring for the health and comfort of his men that his own health gave way. and In September, he came u him home on leave of

absence to recuperate. But he gradually became worse, and died on Nov. 6. of that year at the early age of thirty-rive. It was but a few ..ays before his death that the incident occurred to which a-e allude. A telegraph message was received In this city from President Abraham Lincoln, addressed to General Jameson. It was, as nearly as enn be recalled, in these words: "Let me know the exact condition of your health, as I want to know how you are. I hope you will soon be better and be able to return. " This message was delivered In person to General Jameson at his home In Upper Still vater by our esteemed townsman. Mr. Charles E. Bliss, who was then in charge of the American telegraph office fn this city. An answer was forwarded, the nature of which Is not recalled, but In a few days General Jameson had answered the last summons. Looking at this incident to-day. what a flood of pathos it brings to mind. President Lincoln at that time was carrying upon his heart a nation's trials. He was weighted with sorrow and responsibility as few men have ever been burdened with the cares of statecraft in a time of raging civil war. Yet he could stop amid It all to send a message hundreds of miles to inquire after the health of a gallant soldier. FATAL POSSESSION'S.

Weird Romance of Finger Rln That Killed a Bride. Tit-Bits. Some of the most weird and curious romances are associated with possessions whih appear to have no other purpose than to bring misfortune and trouble on those who own them. A tragic instance of this is related in connection with the Lindsay family. According to the legend, Colin Lindsay, a former Earl of Balcarres, was quietly eating his breakfast when he should have been awaiting his bride at the altar. When reminded of the fact he hurried off to church, and, forgetting- the indispensable ring, borrowed one from a friend, which he duly placed on the bride s finger. At the conclusion of the ceremony the newly made countess took a glance at the ring, and, on seeing that it bore a grinning death's head, suddenly fainted away. The incident affected her to such an extent that, on recovering consciousness, she expressed her conviction that she was destined to die within twelve months. And. sure enough, in less than that period her life came to an end. Napoleon III was the possessor of two rings, which he constantly wore and which had belonged to his predecessor. Napoleon L who was a fatalist in the fullest meaning of the term. When Napoleon III died it was proposed that these rings should be removed from his finger, but the prince imperial refused to have them. They were accordingly burled with his father at Chislehurst. and, so far from regarding them from the same point of viewas the prince, the Emperor's servants firmly believed that he would come to an untimely end for discarding the rings. And when, In 1879. the unfortunate young man met his death at the hands of the Zulus, against whom he was fighting for this country, they saw in this deplorable event the realization of their fears. One of the best known public men iln New Zealand, a wealthy resident of Hoklangi, North Island, recently traveled all the way to St. Louis. Mo., in a fruitless endeavor to have an idol cremated which had cast an evil spell over him. The heathen idol had come to him as a part of a legacy from his grandfather, to whom it had been presented by a Maori chief. Said its owner: "I have traveled 10,000 miles with the image, and it has brought disaster after disaster upon me. I have often endeavored to destroy it, but without avail. "I once threw it under a train, and, in running to get out of the way fell and broke one of my fingers. Then I was arrested for endangering the lives of passengers. When in London three months ago I threw it into the Thames, and a drunken sailor who fished it out brought it back to my rooms, and in his rage at not receiving a reward almost beat me to death. While in San Francisco I tried to chop it to pieces with an axe. when the axe. rebounding, struck me on the forehead with almost fatal effect. The wood is so hard that an ordinary fire will not destroy it. and I am afraid to get rid of it otherwise because of the evil results." The image was a crude figure in rosewood and ebony, and about two feet long. Falling to get it cremated in St. Louis its owner started for New York, where he was determined to have it destroyed at a'hatever cost. Burled in the shadow of Diamond Head volcano, at Honolulu, is a violin known as the "Violin of Death." In the space of a few months two persons who had owned it took their own lives and a third mysteriously disappeared. The last victim of this weird instrument was George H. Scott, a sergeant of the Fnited States army. Sixtysixth coast artillery. The victim killed himself at the barracks at Camp McKinley, but a few days before doing so he realized the evil influences of the violin and buried it as above stated. I MBRELLAS FOR H I It L. Clg-ar Man Lends Them for 25 Cents on 81 Deposits. Philadelphia Press. "That's rain. Go over to the store, Steve, and get forty umbrellas, quick," said a tobacconist near Twelfth and Market streets to his clerk one day last week. As the proprietor cocked his ear and listened to the gentle rumblings of the storm that broke a little later, the boy a-ent out, but before he got back it was pouring rain. There was a man waiting for him in the store. "Hurry up. boy." raid the man. "Let me have one of them. I've only a few minutes to catch my train." For the dollar bill which he had laid on the counter the proprietor gave him a little paper check. Then the man picked up one of. the umbrellas and hurried out. The tobacconist was hiring his umbreal'as at 25 cents apiece, requiring a dollar security for their return. His customers were business men of the neighborhood, who live in the suburbs and who had come to town without their mackintoshes. Within two hours tsn men had come in to hire umbrellas. There was a little rush between 5 and 6 o'clock in the evening. The smile of the proprietor broadened as his stock of umbrellas decreased. "They're going pretty fast to-day, Steve," he said. "Yes, sir," answered the young man, "but I think the rain is slackening up a bit. The clouds are breaking." To an inquisitive pedestrian who dropped in after, a cigar the .obacconist explained: "Men do not like to carry umbrellas when there is any chance of clear a-eather," he raid. "When the sun came out two hours after breakfast this morning it fooled people and they left their rain coats at home. Most of my customers live in the suburbs and have to walk some distance after they get off the train. No, I do not charge a dollar unless they keep the umbrella. If they return it, I give them 75 cents back. About half bring them back. I make more If they don't. The umbrellas only cost me 50 cents apiece. "I've cleared as high as $33 in one day. Of course that was unusual. The more unexpected a shower the better It Is for me. That is if it comes after people have left home. "How did I pick up the idea? Well, when customers came into my store for cigars during a storm they grumbled so much about it always raining when they had nothing to protect them, I simply had to think of something to keep them calm. But you heard that last man he was complaining because it don't rain when he is home." GLASS DRINKING VESSELS. Now Suspected that They Are Not Entirely Innocuous. The Lancet. It is well known that glass has now almost completely replaced metal, horn and leather for the bottle or drinking cup, although it. is not so very long ago that the leather bottle and horn drinking cup were extant. Whether this change could possibly have Introduced any prejudice to the common health Is an Interesting matter for speculation. It is not true, though it is commonly supposed to be so, that glass is unattacked or completely undissolved by water and many other fluids in household use. On the contrary, the indelllble marks which often appear on a water bottle arise from the action of the water upon the glass. Pure distilled a'ater, showing neither an acid nor an alkaline reaction, which has been allowed to remain in a close glass bottle for some time will gradually develop an alkaline reaction owing to the base of the mixed silicate of the glass dissolving in the water. At the same time a deposit of silica will generally be found at the bottom. This obviously shoa-s a dissociation of constituents and the glass yields up Its silica and Its alkali to water. With acid fluids the same action may be observed, and It is conceivable that with acid wines kept long in bottles some considerable action upon the glass may occur. Weak acid solutions cease to be acid after being kept In glass bottles for some time owing to the neutralisation of the acids by the alkali of the glass, and at the same time a flocculent and generally Iridescent deposit is found In the bottle consisting of silica. This deposit is a constant source of trouble to druggists. Though the glass-dissolving power of most fluids in domestic use must be very small.

The STARR Piano

Is vastly different from the ordinary kind. It Is true that in general appearance pianos are similar, but in details there will be found varying qualities, from the "tin pan" variety up to the piano that has that satisfying quality that even the musically uneducated detect at once. That beautiful, singing quality of tone and evenly balanced scale proclaim the ar

tistic piano. Such a piano is the STARR.

We call tor and deliver linen. yet, considering that these fluids are continually in contact with glass, either in the bottle or the tumbler, there can be little doublt that traces of the constituents of glass are ingested. It has even been suggested that the practically universal use of gass in this way in the place of the oM drinking vessels of wood or horn, or of the glass bottle for the leather or skin vessel, has contributed a means of rendering the vermiform appendix easily liable to an inflammatory process by the irritation set up bv siliceous particles. This ingenious theory of the increased prevalence of. appendicitis being due to the universal use of glass for drinking vessels can hardly be sericus'y regarded when It is considered that sillcia is a frequent constituent of a number of foods. As is well known, sillcia is the support of the wheat stalk, as lime associated with phosphates is of the human frame. Welkina Tours. Country Life. Walking is an art, almost said to be one of the lost arts. It Is astonishing how few know how to walk; know how to acquire the measured stride, the springy step, the easv poise of body and the swing of the arm, which make walking at once one of the most healthful and enjoyable forms of physical exercise. For the real pleasure of walking one must turn to the country. Pavements are but dead, unyielding matter at best. In the turf of the country there is a spring In response to the pressure of the foot which Is a delight and an Inspiration in itself. The purity of the air sets the blood to racing gloriously. Good walkers find twenty miles a day a comfortable average, allowing plenty of time for rest and "loafing.
