' THE Commissioners in charge of the building of the new Indiana State House report that work already done .and contracted for will cost $1,631,006, .and other items of expense will bring •the anticipated outlay up to $1,762,207, leaving $230,792 to expend without ex- miieding the limit, $2,000,000. A LOT of men who objected td wom­ an's working in the same organ factory at Brat.tleboro, Yt., at last told the proprietor that unless he discharged the women they would resign and ex­ pose the inferior and fraudulent work­ manship of the female employes. He 'told them to leave as soon as they liked; that he had exchanged their parts of the machinery for those made by the -women, and that the organs they had praised contained the women's work; the organs they declared unfit for sale oentained their owh. They left. A MAN in New Brunswick, haying no -Weapon and being attacked by a bear, struck him with a bottle of kerosene oil, which broke and ran down the an­ imal like the oil oa Aaron's beard. The f>ear, not mind'ng this at all, sprang at him and began hugging him, when the man, taking a match from his pocket, aet fire to the bear., All but the head and shoulders were soon consumed, when, in order to save the snout and get the bounty, tKe mun carried water in his hat and put out the flames. A newspaper heads this "A Tough Bear Story." IT has been ascertained that the first - experiment with air-balloons was made by Montgolfier the'elder, at Avignon, when he was a resident in that city in the month of November, 1782. He sent up in his room a parallelopiped of canvas, of whieh the measurement was forty cubic feet, and which had been heated by burning paper inside. The room is still in existence in a house in front of which the municipality have placed com­ memorative inscription. The window fronting the street is adorned with an jjapn balcony, at both ends of which ft •mall gilt balloon has been . THE Washington monument is now SO far advanced as to warrant a con­ sideration of plans for the proposed terrace at its base. Mr. Euwuid Clark, architect of the Capitol, has drawn two designs, one of which contemplates a •single terrace 220 feet square with wide flights of steps, and the other a double terrace. The four plaques designed by Mr. Larkin Mead are provided with places on the four sides of the terrace in both designs. The original idea was •fo place these plaques on the monu­ ment itself near its base, but objection is made that they would destroy the de­ sign of a solid, unbroken shaft. MR W. W. SEAT, of Borne, Ga., is -experimenting with watermelons for i&e purpose of extracting sugar. His experiments so far, in a small way, in­ duce him to believe that a fair lot of melons contain an average of 7 per «oent. of saccharine matter, or pure su- ; gar. He estimates that on one, acre of good "'land, suited to their growth, 34,- 500 pounds of melons would grow, and these would produce, at 7 per cent, of saccharine matter, 2,415 pounds of su­ gar, and worth, at 10 cents, $241.50. This sounds very well, but the results of a few practical experiments would be >re satisfactory. • persistently waving, he reversed the engine and put 'on the brakes, coming to a halt in the middle of a curved cut. Looking out and down the track be­ yond they saw an express train coming from the opposite direction at full speed. The little girl continued wav­ ing her apron until that train was also brought to a halt within at, few feet of the first train, thus preventing a ter­ rible accident. Before the little girl's name and residence could be learned she had disappeared, but the railroad company intend rewarding her for her good deed. A PHENOMENAL creature, calling him­ self "Prof." Asa T. Green, recently lectured at McKeesport, Pa., and stat­ ed,-among other interesting things, that, figuring on the length of time required for the light of a star to reach the earth, the earth must have been 118,- 000,000 years old when the sun was ere" ated, as the light of stars was then visi­ ble, according to the Bible, which would be that long reaching the earjth; and that the earth was 177,000,000. years old when man was created, as the light of the sun was at that time visible; that according to scripture it is now 5,886 years since man was created, and that the world can come to an end in 994,114 years, by which time the light of stars, which are necessary to complete determined systems of as tronomy, rwill reach the earth. This would be to make the age of the world since the creation of man just 1,000,000 years. So UN8J5N8ATIOXAL an organ as the London Lancet is giving no slight sat­ isfaction, of late, to the vegetarians. It argues that nervous diseases increase as people come to live on the flesh of warm-blooded animals -- a point to which, it thinks, attention has not been adequately directed--the fact being that meat is highly stimulating, and supplies proportionately more exciting than actually nourishing pabulum to the nervous system. Furthermore, accord- eng to this authority, the meat-eater lives at high pressure, and is, or ought to be, a peculiarly active organism, like a predatory animal, always on the alert, walking rapidly and consuming large quantities of oxygen; on the contrary, however, it is found that, in practice, the meat-eater does not live up to the level of his food, and, as a consequence, he cannot or does not take in enough oxygen to meet the exigencies of his mode of life. « A CURIOUS band of religious enthu­ siast have recently emigrated from Chicago to Jerusalem. The wife of a lawyer in Chicago lost three«;hildren by the wreck of a ship, and the mis­ fortune so affected her mind that she became a prey to delusions as to the .speedy resurrection of her children and personal revelations of the deity. Strange to say, she has persuaded her husband and several other persons to ahare her delusions.^ Not long ago it -was revealed to her that Ae and her followers should sell out their posses* <|ons and set oat for Jerusalem. The parties have recently arrived at the Holy City, and profess to be making •inverts to their own eccentric faith. • GEN. GEORGE MACDONAXD, the "FATH­ ER" of the British army, has recently •©ntered his 99th year, and is still hale •nd hearty. He was born only three ^sears after Cornwallis surrendered at "Torktown, and was sent as an Ensign in *§he expedition to Hanover in the year •(|f Trafalgar. In 1812 he engaged in war in the Spanish Peninsula; in 11814 he was in Canada, and at the Igiege of Plattsburg; and in 1816, „ jfoung man then of 31, he was thrice • "Wounded at Waterloo. Since then he %as been Governor of Sierra Leone and Jpominica. But battle-wounds, malaria .-and yellow fever have all failed to shat­ ter his iron constitution, and his health •-•'fijk still sound and his faculties unim­ paired. "" , A LITTLE girl was seen on the track •of th^Missouri Pacific railroad, waving $er apron wildly and trying to stop the r$rain. At first the engineer thought «he was at play, but, as she stood there "A TALL young woman," with a new grievance against cigarettes, writes to the Sanitary Engineer, asking if exces­ sive smoking of them is not one of the reasons why young men are so short. "It is forlorn," she says, "to walk or dance with a young man that only ouu liuvro COmWup W jrpu* are so many of them" whom she kndWB. She evidently does not like to "overlook" such an offense as this. On the other hand, a clerk in the New York Dock Department, who is charged with disobeying a rule of the office and smoking during office hours, says he has smoked since he was 17 years old--he is now 50 --and smoking has had no eyil effect on him. On the contrary, he has,always taken a delight ib study," and while thoughtless young men have sought amusements in "theaters, ball-rooms, drinking-saloons," he has been trying to improve himself in the line of his "le­ gitimate profession" and to store his "mind with knowledge upon general subjects." Beside, he has added twen­ ty years to his life in "hours stolen from sleep," so that he is now, in effect, 70 years old. All this he attributes to the patient and conscientious use of to- GR08S FRAUDS IX THE , ELECTION THE religious census of Victoria, Aus tralia, in which every one has been at liberty to enter his religion in any man­ ner which best pleased his fancy, is a very curious document. Of 863,346 persons, very nearly 300,000 (i. e. 299,- 542) return themselves as belonging to the Church of England, nearly 200,000 (more exactly, 197,157) as Roman Cath­ olics, considerably over 100,000 as Presbyterians of some shade or other, and nearly the same number as Meth­ odists of some shade or other, while of the other • Pretestant sects none much exceed 20,000--about the number of Baptists--the Independents falling in numbers slightly beloW the Baptists. Eleven thousand are returned as Pa. gans. But one enrious thing is the number of fancy religions. There is one Borrowite, one Millerite, one Walk- erite, one Colensoite, one who returns himself as a "Silent Admirer," one as a Theosophist, and five who belong to the "Church of Eli Sands." There are twenty who declare that they have "No church at present, no creed," three who call themselves "saved sinners," one who is a "believer in parts of the Bi­ ble," two who call themselves "neu­ trals," and three who state their relig­ ion as "£ s. d." Probably a much greater number might have declared themselves adherents of these last two creeds, had Victorian candor been as great as Victorian liberty. FAHWRTA Telegram to Chicago TTFTWRTRE.T The delayed returns from some of the counties located in almost inaccessi­ ble portions of the State have arrived and' are in the hands of the Secretary of State. Summing up the vote, f find that it was light in three of the districts, there being no opposition to the nomi­ nees for Congress from them. The Re­ publican candidates--viz: Buck in the Fifth, Atkins in the First, and Werso- lowskv in the Second--were defeated by large majorities. Information comes to me from reliable sources that a great deal of fraud was perpetrated in some of the counties of the districts'in which Republicans were running. In Burke county, I am told, Atkins, Republican, got nearly 600 majority at four of the sixteen precincts of the county that were opened. The other twelve pre­ cincts, it is stated, were not opened for fear that Atkins would get such a large vote that his majorities could not be overcome. The ancient principle of ballot-box stuffing of the Democratic party of this State was pretty generally observed in all portions of the State where there •flsis a contest. All of the Justices of the Peace of Georgia are appointed by the Governor, and are consequently rec­ ognized Democrats, and they have the management of the election) with such freeholders as they select, which are always of thesanjp political persuasion. This gives them the organized ma­ chinery. An important fact demonstrated by the elections, botli State and Congress­ ional, held in Georgia recently is this, that the colored vote, which composes largely the Republican element in this State, can only be controlled by mon­ ey. In the State election their conven­ tion indorsed Gortrell, and nine-tenths of the colored vote left their candidate and went to Stephens. Then, again, in the Congressional election the Repub­ lican candidates could not hold them, and many of them either did not vote at all or voted for the Democratic candi­ date for a money consideration. The vote is as totally unreliable as New En­ gland weather. In a single night it can be controlled with a shotbag full of sil­ ver. From what I can learn a good deal of crooked work of all kinds was d ne in the Ninth district, which re­ sulted in the defeat of Speer. At some of the precincts where he received a good vote the tally-sheet shows no vote for Speer at all. The Democratic Elephant. It is a good thing for the Republican party, looking at it ffom the mere parti­ san standpoint, that the Democrats will have such a large majority in the next Congress that they will be responsible to the country for the legislation. Their majority in the next House will reach fifty or sixty, as is already assured, which places the composition of the standing committees in the hands of their Speaker, and it is probable that they will gain United States Senators enough before the Forty-eighth Con­ gress begins to give them the control of that body also. They will then have it in their power to give the country an exhibition of practical statesmanship, to reform some of the alleged abuses that have jrrnwn up under Republican rule and to inaugurate those schemes Qf re-. )̂ TRANFLWI»NT «mrl iritioli have so long promised. We have little faith in Democratic promises, and less in Democratic poli­ cies. It is not forgotten that they had control of both the Senate and the House during a portion of the Hayes administration, and the country has not yet forgotten the poor use to which they put their power. They undertook to starve the Government to death, just as their Southern friends undertook to shoot it to death in Mr. Lincoln's day, and were only prevented by the patri­ otic efforts of the Republican party. Their majority in the next Congress will prove to be an elephant on their hands, and it remains to be seen what they will do with it. Their first and longest session will precede the election of the next Presi­ dent, and that is ^lwavs a critical period for the party which is in the ascendency. They will be compelled to show their hand, and to give the country a foreshadowing of what they would do if fully restored to power in the Federal Government. It is a lucky thing for the people that there is still a Republican President in the executive office, who can exercise the veto power, and that the Democrats have not a two- thirds majority in the Senate. The Republican party needed a little rest, and now it can take it. It is still "the grand old party" which jfrnt down the greatest rebellion of modern times, abolished slavery and saved the Union. Its record makes the brightest page ever written on our national history, and the past is secure. Having purged itself of some of the sins that do so easily beset all political parties, and got rid of the bosses, it still lives to do gal­ lant service yet in the future in behalf of the most sacred interests of 50,000,- 000 of people.--Chicago Journal. ON one of the newest Parisian boule­ vards--that of St. Germain--each lamp-post is labeled with the number of the house opposite to which it stands. This number is inscribed on two enamel plates, which are fixed back to back, just under the light, so as to be legible by night as well as by day to the passing drivers on the one side and to the pedestrians on the other.

Thus it is made certain that if the next elec­ tion of the Chief Magistrate and of ISe presiding officer of the Senate is throw* into the House the Democrats will in­ evitably elect their candidate. This imposes upon Republicans, and upon all who would not see the country pass under Bourbon rule, the greater duty of unity and the maintenance of a vig­ ilant, aggressive organization. The work of the next two years is no light task, and every Republican has a duty to perform to avert such a national ca­ lamity. The great preliminary struggle of the Presidential campaign occurs next year, and Republicans Can begin hone too soon the work of closing up their ranks and preparing for the battle. --Burlington Hawkey e. I What the Republican Party Most Do. ! To cut short the Btory, the question ! in the Republican Jiarty for severe] j years past has been: Who shall get | office ? Now, a party may have leaders 1 and disturbers. It may contain organ-j izers and disorganizes, regulars and i bolters, machine politicians and reform­ ers, but the great body of the people divide on questions, and when those who represent a party forget its origin, and quarral over the\bones in the partv kitchen, they will, after awhile, find themselves in sole possession of the es­ tablishment. The Republicans who vote the ticket at such times do so in the hope that the party may in the fu­ ture again represent the hopes and re­ solves of the millions who ought to rule. If our party leaders would now divine the instincts and sympathize with the aspirations of the pedple pre­ paratory to reorganization, they must not seek knowledge from spoilsmen calling themselves party men, or spoils­ men calling themselves reformers. Both are like the youth that thundered at the play-house in Shakspeare's time, and fought for bitten apples. Until we can have some mightier issue than the slops of patronage and the bitten apples of office, we can not resume business at the old stand with any hope of success.--- Washington Republican.

A Little Too Previous. Some Democratic journals are making a mistake into which a widely-cele­ brated milkmaid, whose name unfort­ unately is lost, fell. They are counting their chickens before they are hatched. Assuming that all the States which re­ cently gave Democratic majorities will vote for the Democratic nominee in 1884, they have no difficulty in figuring out an overwhelming majority for him in the Electoral College. Let them be wise and tarry awhile. Two years must elapse before the PresidentiaLelection. Meantime the Democrats are to be given a trial in the lower house. The recent land-slide was not a vote of Confidence in them, but a notice to the Republican leaders and legislators that they hadn't behaved themselves decently. The Democratic Congress may easily fail to meet general expectation, in which case the popular pendulum will swing back. Fortune and the fickle populace smile upon the Democrats now. It is easy, therefore, to figure out a large majority for their candidate in the Electoral Col­ lege in 1884. But two years may pro-* duce a powerful revolution.--Chicago Times. » t i THE BALLOT IN ILLINOIS.

Tn the event of a failure of the Electoral College to elect a president-- a majority of all the votes being requi­ site to an election--the duty devolves upon the lower house of Congress to elect the President. This is done, not by a majority vote of the members, as in the ordinary legislation of the House, but by a "vote by States." Each' State, on such an occasion, is entitled to one vote, and the character of that one vote is determined by the Repre­ sentatives of each State. Hence, which­ ever political party has a majority of the Representatives from any State will control the vote of that State in the election of President and Vice Presi­ dent by the House. The next House would divide as fol­ lows in such an emergency. \ Democratic. 4 Alabama, * , Arkansas Republican.

It matter's not who has been most blameworthy, or who of the combatants within our party ara blameless ^to­ gether. Certain it is that to-day we stand under a notice to quit if we have nothing different to offer. The Repub­ licans in Congress will have to begin the new work. The people have or­ dered legislation concerning the civil service. They are not content with having the offices held during the pleas­ ure of the appointing power; they want fixed tenure, and removals only for cause. All pressure upon office­ holders for political contributions should be forbidden by law. If there has been none, as we claim is the case, then the legislation will he no reflec­ tion on the managers of the recent cam­ paign. If there has been such pressure, then the. legislation will but meet the righteous demand of the people. Con­ gress must also make, a great reduction in taxation. The internal-revenue sys­ tem and the tariff should both undergo radical changes. By the acts of the Republicans at the coming session will their fitness to grasp the situation be judged .--National Republican. Merely Settlement Tear.

Snyder WhiteeidS; About Actresses. In ft lecture on actresses Miss Logon gave some illustrations of painstaking industry which some acton and actresses give to their work by waj of preparation. Charlotte Cushman, learned to ride horseback on the roa«| and in the circus-ring to be at home hf' a riding-habit. Even after she had be£- come celebrated as "Romeo" she use4l to practice the back fall in her room fo| hours. In the past the acting wai| realistic; to-day the scenery is realistic Mrs. J. B. Wallack used in the murdc scene in "Othello," when plaj "Emilia," to rattle the locked door ; beat on the window sides until her arm* were black and blue while shouting "Help! Help! The Moor hath kiUea my mistress!" Once a protruding aafl tore her arm so that it was cov ered^rttK blood without her noticing it, and oocef a man in the audience was so carried away by her acting that he ran out dt the theatre shouting "Help! help! mur­ der!" Eliza Logan, in the part ot "Cora," found herself physically unaM4 to scream when her child was stotaft and had to turn her back to the andi» ence while another woman at the wingfc _ did the screaming". But that nighy •" while fast asleep in bed, she alarme« the house and neighborhood by a spo- eession of the wildest screams while sh|| .. Was utterly unconsoious. Mfi A BULLET invented by a chemist is made of a powerful ic. which breaks on striking a penon* who is made unconscious for twatlfc hours, and while in ttat ooaditkw OMn . > be taken prisoner. j 1 •* *• V -41 . .
