An Entertaining und Instructive Summary of theßoings in the Old and New World, Embracing Politics, Labor, Accidents, Crime, Industry, Etc. IOWA AND OHIO.' The Election Returns Not Yet Decided In S mie Cases. A Des Moines (Iowa) dispatch says: It will undoubtedly take the official count by the Legislature to determine who is elected Lieutenant Governor of lowa. Diligent efforts have been made by all the newspapers here to get the exact figures, but no two of them agree. The Hegintcr claims the elec ion of Poyneer by over 2,000, the AVicn by 750, while the Leader’s figures do not vary much from the last figure. The errors arising from transmission by telegraph could easily change that result. All the rest of the Republican ticket—that is, Judge of the Supreme Court, Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Railway Commissioner—is elected. The total vote will not vary much from the following: Governor— Boies 178,838 Hutchison 171.178 Bois< b’ plurality ■ 7,680 Lieutenant Governor— Poyneer 175,176 Bestow 174,901 Poyneer’s plurality 275 Superintendent of Public Schools— Sabin 176,213 Irish 171,668 Sabin’s plurality 4,545 Railroad Commissioner— Smith 181,300 Morgan 173,253 Smith’s plurality... 8,047 The Legislature stands a tie in the House. In the Senate the Republicans figure out a majority of six—twentyeight Republicans and twenty-two Democrats. A Columbus (Ohio') dispatch says: “The official returns from all counties in the State have been received, and that on Lieutenant Governor verified. It shows a plurality of 41 for Lampson (Rep.) over Marquis (De n.). With the exception of Governor all the Republican ticket is elected, as the other Republican candidates arc ahead of Lampson.” Denison University’s N >w President. D. B. Pubinton, LL. D., Vice President and professor of metaphysics in West Virginia University, has been unanimously elected President of Denison University at Granville, Ohio, to succeed Dr. Galusha Anderson, whose resignation takes effect Deel -J, and who goes to Chicago. The new President is a Baptist layman, who, although yet a young man, has attained the highest place in his denomination in Ohio and some eminence in the country at large as a schoier, an author, and an instructor. Charged with Sharing Wholesale Murder. John Jackson has been arrested at Wichita, Kan., as one of the twenty-nine men who in July, 1888, murdered Sheriff Cross and posse, of Stevens County, in No Man’s Land. Seventeen more of the gang are now in Stevens County, and the authorities there captured them all. The murder created intense excitement throughout the western part of the State atthe time, and grew out of the HugotiuWoodsdale county seat war. Five Men Terribly Burned. By an explosion of a gas generator at the -Etna Rolling Mills, at Wheeling, W. Ya., Manager Caldwell, Assistant Manager Jones, William Howell, engineer; Timothy Miner, fireman; and Pat Smith, sheet-roller, wore blown a considerable distance, receiving the flash of the exploding gas right in their faces. All were terribly burned about the face, head, neck, and arms. Minei may die. The mill was not injured. Spreckels’ Refinery Nearing Completion. A Philadelphia dispatch says: The first invoice of 1,000 hogsheads of sugar for the Spreckels sugar refinery is now being received and weighed by the public weigher. This is an indication that the new refinery will soon be running, as it is the preliminary cargo for that purpose. Failed on Account of His Brother John Carmichael, ex-Mayor of Amsterdam, N. Y., has made an assignment for the benefit of his creditors. The failure was the result of aiding his toother to make the latter’s forged paper good. Perished in a Mine. A Beflin cable reports: By the caving in of a pit in a coal mine at Ratibor, Prussian Silesia, twenty miners were buried. There is no hope of saving any of them. Drowned in a Flood. A DAM one mile west of Alton, Ontario, gave way and the water, sweeping down toward the town, carried away the house of an old couple named Harris. Both were drowned. Heavy Boston Failure. At Boston the leather-firm of William F. Johnson & Co., have filed a petition in insolvency, which shows their liabilities to be $448,8M. A Texas Hot'l in Ashes. Fire at Dallas, Texas, destroyed the Capitol Hotel, creating a loss of $500,000, with insurance of $300,000. Ihe guests lost all their effects. A Catholic Institution Ded Rated. The Catholic University of America at Washington has been dedicated with impressive ceremonies. Turkish Concession to Christians.

At New York the board of directors of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad, met and declared a quarterly dividend of 1 per cent. Ihe expected actiot in regard to the consolidation of the road and the Big l our was postponed indefinitely. On the 2d of May, 1889, Elbridge G. Stone, of Harvard, Mass., died, and 8 few days afterward his nephew presented a will purporting to have been mack March 4. Bv this will, which bore the names of Irvin G. Smith, William On

and Mrs. L. A. Fairbanks as witnesses, Dr. Stone received the bulk of the property, valued at about $20,000. Dr. Stone has now been arrested charged w ith perjury, Mrs. Fairbanks having furnished information showing that none of the supposed witnesses had witnessed the signing of the will.

State Treasurer William B. Hart of Pennsylvania has died at his home in Harrisburg from an attack of paralysis. Sunol, the 3-year-old horse that trotted a mile in 2:101. at San Francisco, has been sold to Robert Bonner, of New York. A gigantic pool is being formed m Pittsburgh of all the leading windowlass manufacturers iu the United States. The new pooling arrangement will go into effect about Jan. 1, 1890. Daniel Carmichael, of Amsterdam, N. I’., has been arrested charged with issuing forged paper amounting to SIOO,000. WESTERN HAPPENINGS. Senator George Hearst, of California, has authorized his friend, Dr. H. Latham, to send a dispatch to Senator Stanford saying that if Sunol had not ; been sold he i Hem st > would give mo> “ lor ' the filly than Bonner or any other man on ; earth. The Doctor was likewise instruct- ’ ed to request Senator Stanford to put a price on the wonderful Lorse Palo Alto. I The Doctor says Hearst in-is’s that money will not stand in* the way of ‘ keeping the fleet animals iu Cdi for- j nia. If $500,00(1 will buy Sunol the Senator is willing to produce the coin. Stanford’s sale of Sunol to Bonner has excited the wrath of California breeders of Lotting horses. They are disgusted * because the mare is sacrificed just when ' she was about to become queen of the turf. Stanford will not name the price received for Sunol, and declared his confidence in the mare’s ability to bring the record down to 2:04 next year, Stanford expects much of Palo Alto, the only colt that ever showed a two-minute gait for a quarter. Minneapolis will lose the vast business interests of the Washburn-Crosby Milling Company. The present company’s lease expires in September, 1890, and as there is an option on the property given to an English syndicate, which will j probably be closed, the company is per- I loree compelled to look for another loca- | tion. President Bell, of the Washburn- • Crosby Company, C. 11. De hi Bat re, the company’s engineer, C. M. Harrington, : and several Boston capitalists are look- ■ ing over Duluth, with a view to locating j there. Buffalo has also made a bid tor the new location. The new mill will have (•,(100-barrel capacity, and bo eon- j nected with a large storage warehouse. James McDonald shot Duncan Bev- 1 eredge, Ins wife, and a woman visiting ' the Bevercdges, at Matchwood, Ontona- I gon County, Mich,, the other night. The | triple murder grew out of a feud about a ! homestead claimed by both men. The murdered man wns unarmed, and the I shooting was a wanton and apparently I premeditated murder. The murderer was । captured and jailed, but obstinately re- ] fuses to talk. At Lohkeford, California, a preacher j named C. A. Ross murdeTed his wife and | 12-year-old son and then killed himself. Ross was a traveling Congregationalist preacher. He had not lived happily with his wife, of whom he was extremely jedons. The murders were committed with a pistol while the victims were asleep. The immediate cause of the tragedy is not know n.‘ Three of the four breweries in Kansas City have been sold to an English syndicate for $1,500,00(1. Ihe transfer will occur Jan. 1, 1890.

Bayard, ex-Sec- ! retary of State, and Miss Mary M illing i Clymer were married at the bride's resi- ! deuce, 1617 II street, Washington, on the 7th inst., in the presence of a most distinguished company. The intention was to have the wedding as quiet as possible, and the invitations, number.ng about 150, were confined to the relatives of the contracting parties and a few personal friends.

Secretary Blaine telegraphed the Territorial and State Governor of Wash- ! ington on the 11th. inst. that the President had signed the procla ation declar-

ing ihe Territory to be a State in the Union. An Olympia dispatch says: The | Legislature of Washington had just elected minor officers when the news that President Harrison had signed the proclamation admitting Washington into the Union was received. Instantly every member sprung to bis feet, and the entire house and spectators cheered for some minutes. , When order was restored one of the members—Tucker, an old pioneer—rose to his feet, and in a brief speech, trembling with emotion, congratulated the Legis- I lature and the people on admission. In the Senate the proclamation was also received with continued cheering and the , wildest enthusiasm, POLITICAL PORRIDGE. The plurality for Brackett (Rep.) for Governor in Massachusetts is 5,984. The Legislative ticket shows a loss to the Republicans of three Senators and eighteen Representatives. A Cou Mt.us, (Ohio) dispatch says: The official returns from sixty counties received at the Secretary of State’s office i and the other twenty-eight on telegrams from the officials of the counties indicate t hat the plurality of Lampson (Rep. ) for Lieutenant Governor will be 131. These figures will not vary much from the final result. The Republicans elect all the State ticket except Governor. A Di s Moines (Iowa) dispatch says; Official returns have been received at the Jleg inter office of the vote in ninetyeight out of the ninety-nine counties of the State. The unofficial return of the remaining county- Butler has been rc- | eeived, and will vary but little, if any, ' from the official vote.

For Lieutenant Governor—Poyneer (Rep.), 177,100; Bestow (Dem.), 175,184; Poyneer’s plurality, 2,216. This shows that the whole Re publican ticket save Hutchison is elected, mid the oth r pluralities will reach ne rly 10.000. ACROSS THE OCEAN I t is officially announced that dervishes recently attacked Gondar, the capital of Abyssinia, and burned the city. Subsequently a force of Abyssinians attacked the dervishes mid defeated them, killing three of the chiefs.

, What Is Catarrh! ' Catarrh is an inHammation of the mucous membranes, ami may affect the head, throat, stomach, bowels, or bladder. But catarrh of the head is the most common, often coming on so gradually that it lias a firm hold before the nature of the trouble is suspected. Catarrh is caused by a cold. । or succession of colds, combined with imI pure blood. Its local symptoms are a sense of fullness and heat in the forehead.dryness In the nose and back part of the throat, and a disagreeable discharge from the nose. ' When the disease gains a firm hold on the system it becomes chronic, and is then exceedingly dangerous and treacherous, lia- , bio to develop into consumption. Fortunate is it that we have in Hood’s Sarsaparilla 'he remedy for this ever-in-I creasing maUu.v. It attacks at once the source of the disease by purifying and eni riching the blood.which in passing through the delicate passages of the mucous membrane soothes and rebuilds the tissues, giving them tendency to health instead of disease. and ultimately curing the affection. At the same time Food’s Sarsaparilla ; builds up the whole system, and makes one feel that he has taken’a new lease of life. A Feast with King Mataafa. I A resident of Samoa thus tells of a feast which he attended on invitation of King Mataafa: “I reached the King’s house about 2p. ni. On entering I found Mataafa seated in a chair, made somewhat statelike by mats and tappa. । The American Admiral sat on his right and a Mr. Hamilton, ex-Consul for the United States, on his left. I । went up and shook hands with the King, who received me very graciously, and then I was shown to a chair ten or twelve paces from the King. “The King made a speech, which was interpreted by Mr. Hamilton, and then we all adjourned to the feasting pavilion, which was made by putting poles in the ground at intervals ot five or six feet fastening cross pieces of wood so as to form a support for the tappa roofs. The pavilion, or continuous tent, was about sixty yards long. The table was the earth, covered with banana leaves, our seats also the earth, I with mats to sit on. j "The whole length of the ‘table’ was covered with roast pigs, fish, lobsters, prawn, fowls, duck, bread, sara, yams, i etc., beer and wine, and cocoanuts ! young and full of milk to drink. 1 had my luncheon before 1 started, as I am ; a bad hand at* a dinner, knife-and-fork-I less and minus plates. However, I | got some tine prawns, which I enjoyed. Nearly all the Knglish, American, and French roddents were present, but no : Germans, though they were invited "After dinner we returned to the King’s house, and some girls danced and very well, too gracefully and prettily. They kept good time to the i music, which consisted of seven or i eight women singing. Then there was ' a sort of jester, who, I believe, said | some clever and sarcastic things. I left about half-past I, not feeling verv : well and somewhat find. I shook hands with the King ere 1 left, saving good-by. which ho repeated. He is a j nice, quiet, well-behaved, gentlemanly fellow I should think about 50 years old.” Copy of OrigiiiKt. Van Wert. Ohio. July 11. ISS3. | Lheumatii’ Syrup Co., Jackson.

I'onnor goes to church, in Dr. | Hall’s fashionable Presbyterian temple ! on f ifth avenue, and immediately be- ! hind it stand his handsome stables, i which, like the church, are built of ; ■ biick and overgrown with vines. He j is a regular aitendant on Sundays upon Dr. Hall’s ministrations, and a j still more regular attendant upon l Aland S. He paid \\. H. \ anderbilt । SLO,OOO for her, and when the latter reI pented of his bargain and offered him I S iD.fIOO to get the light heeled lady back he utterly refused to consider the ! question of parting from his equine charmer, and has steadily refused j every offer since. They say at the stables that Aland is provided for in the rich publisher’s ’ will, and whether he lives or dies she will ];ass all her days in luxury and ease. Immediately after church on Sundays he steps around to the stables to see how she is and give her a lump of sugar, while she rubs her velvet nose on his shoulders and makes little feminine sounds of pleasure. She is very fond of Bonner as her master and j protector, but her real love is Murphy, i the jockey, whose very step she knows, ! though she only sees him once in along while. She never forgets him, no matter how much time elapses between their meetings. Another famous horse in these Bonner stables is Harus, who has developed a shocking temper and a pair of tender feet in his declining years, and is really of very little service, though Bonner loves and cares for him for the wonderful horse he has been, for that matter still is, barring these little discrepancies. Dexter died in these stables, and, indeed, old horsemen are inclined to take off their hats in passing the place from a reverential feeling that this is a sort of shrine of American horseflesh, while Bonner himself feels that respect for himself only possible to the man who has been the owner of three of the most famous horses in the world. Maud wears a blanket embroidered with this legend: “Maud S., Queen of the Turf,” and above her hangs the only whip with which she was ever struck, on the day that she made her great unbroken record. This whip is the property of her adored Murphy, who keeps it as a precious relic. Perhaps she loves him best because he is the only man who ever struck her.— Brooklyn Eagle. IU Winds That Blow “naebody any good" ara p!«aty on the storm-vexed Atlantic, to say nothing of the occasionally typhoon-swept Pacific. The hapless voyager, when shaken up by the heavings of the “briny,” should take that pleasantest and most salutary of doses, a wineglassful of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, the finest stomachic and tonic that ever wanned, regulated and quieted the human interior. Railroad jolted and steamship shaken travelers will exercise a wise prevision by supplying themselves with a sumoiency of this incomparable medicine for the journey. So will mariners, emigrants to the West, and others about to “seek fresh fields and pastures new.” Malaria, the scourge of newly cleared and mining districts, is completely conquered and surely averted by the Bitters. Liver, bowel, and kidney complaint and incipient rheumatism it annihilates. Two colored men wept to JKAtice Davis’ office in Wheeling, W.

Entirely Too Literal. Tommy Jones wits not a very bright boy, and when his teacher, at the close of school one afternoon, told him he must write a composition on the pump to-morrow, he took her at her word. The next morning, therefore, instead of starting to school at the usual hour, he mounted the big wooden box pump iu the yard, and with his slate on his knees began to write the desired composition. But Tommy’s father happening to pass that way discovered him and asked why he was not off to school. And when the boy replied that the teacher had told him to write a composition on the pump Mr. Jones burst out in a hearty laugh, much to Tommy’s surprise. An explanation followed, and the boy jumped down from the pump and started for school, convinced that he needn’t sit on a pump to write a composition on a pump or about a pump. — Atlanta Journal.

The most prominent physicians in the city smoke uud recommend “Tansill's Punch.” Danger from Catarrh Catarrh is au exceedingly disagreeable disease, its varied symptoms—discharge at the nose, bad breath, pain between the eyes, coughing, choking sensation, ringing noises in the ears, etc.—being not only troublesome to the sufferer, but offensive to others. Catarrh is also danyerous because it may lead to bronchitis or consumption. Being a blood disease, the true method of cure is to purify the blood by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which has cured many severe eases of catarrh. “For several jears I had been troubled with a kind of asthma or catairh in my throat, and hail tried several kinds of medicine, but could find nothing to help me. My wife wanted me to try a bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I told the druggist C7 Thom I bought it that I had no faith in it, but would give it a trial, which I did. I must say 1 was very much benefited by using it, and would recommend it very highly to any one having asthma or catarrh.” Elias P. Devries, film ol Devries & Peterson, Omaha, Neb.
