A Void Election.
Moreurap Ciry, N. C., Nov. 11-"
It bas just been learned that at Piney
Point precinct, Carteret county, on
November 8rd, just before the polls
were closed, one of the judges, in ligit-
ing his pipe, accidertally dropped the
head ota natch in the county box, and
when the accident was discovered by
them befure the box could be opened,
most of the tickets had been burned.
The judges, four Republicans and two
Democrats, decided to guess at the
~namber of votes for each candidate, and
Affidavits have been secured from
each of the poll holders and judges set-
ting forth the. above facts, and stating
that the replacing of the burned tickets
was very uncertain, owing to the great
number of scratches. | 1

li we take McKinleyTs popalar
plarality at °710,00°0"that being a
splitting of the difference between
the lowest present etimate, 600,-
000, and the highest, 829,000"and
the negro vote in the whole coun
try at 2,000,000, and deduct from
the latter 90,000 (a large estimate )
for tne Bryan pegro vote, and
concede the balance, 1,910,000, to
McKinley, we have this bit of
arithmetic :
Negro majority for Me-
Kinley 1,910,000
~ McKiuleyTs plurality in
total vote 710,000
BryauTs plurality of the
WHITE vote 1,200,00°
Thatis an overwhelming ma-
jority, -as majorities go in our
elections, as will appear fiom the
followiag resume which we find
in our able Atlanta contempo-
rary.
Durizg the last half of the
caupagn, says the Atlanta Con-
stitution, the press and speakers
for the single gold standard ap
pealed constantly to the public to
give the Democrats such a erush-
ing defeat that the bimeitallie
movement would be killed for-
ever. On election night, when
the returns began to come in, the
Republican figurers sent out
enormous majorities for McKin-
ley from all the States east of
~the Mississippi, north of the Ohio};
river and several south of the
latter riyer. They claimed 20,000
4n Virginia, 30,000 in West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and
North Garolina, und 50,000 in
Texas, with 10,000 in Florida.
They gave very small majorities
to Bryan in the the Demuvcratic
states, and did everything in their
~power to make it appear that
there had bean what they were
pleased to term oa landslide.�
Bat all the southern States ex-
cept West Virginia and Kentucky
turned out to have gone Demo-
-" gratie by majorities as large as
| had been claimed for McKinléy.
| Ever: since the Republican pa-
- pers haye been rather shy in
figuring on the popular plurality.
The papers which hava made
calculations on this line have gens
rally added thousands of votes
: gratuitously to Major McKinleyTs
plarelity in a number of States
_ and they have diminished Mr.
Bryan's pluralities in the same
omanner in the Btates which he

Suppose in a contest where
there were 500 votes, oae candi-
date shouia beat the other by

would hardly be considered over-
whelming. That is the ratio o1
Major McKinley's vote to Mr.
BryanTs. » |
In 1892, Mr. Cleveland received
5.556,b62 votes-und Gen. Harrison
received 5,162;874. ClevelandTs
plurality was about 394,000, or a
\little less than half McKinleyTs
over Bryan.
In 1888, Cleveland received 5,
558,500 to 5,441,902 for Harrison:
In that election Mr. Clevaland re-
ceived 96,000 more votes than
were given to Gcn. Harrison, and
yet the latter had a majority ot
the electoral college and was
e.ected.
In 1834, when Cleveland was
elected for the first time, the vote
between him and Blaine was very
close, there being a difference of
only 23,000 in a total vote of 10,-

Republican candidate, Alabama
gave him 128,0.0 of it and Georgia
added 81,060, while Texas chipped
in 157,000.
The plurality against Bryan
this year is small compared to
the plurality against Clevelandism
two years ago, or the plurality
against McKinleyism in 1890,
when the Republicans were:turn

The results accomplished by the
use of ~~crushite,TTa new material
for sawing and polishing granite,
~stone and marble, are represented as
quite remarkable, the material con-
sisting simply of minute chilled cast
metal shot varying in size from mere
powder to clover seed size. Blocks
of granite are now being sawed with
this instead of sand at the rate of
four inches in depth and hard grit
stone at nine in depth an hour with
12 blades in the machine. Itis su.
claimed to be capable of doing the
same amount of work at one-tenth
the cost, and is also being employed
insand blast apparatus in place of
sand and in substitution of 2ijmond
drills fer boring and crilling. The
statex.snt is made that in sawing
and polishing one ton of this mate
rial is equal to about 36. tons of the
sharpest sand. The tiny balls are
chilled to intense hardness without
being brittle, and when struck on an
anvil they indent thelaicer. Asthe

when he was in bod inside his tent a

SHE AND HER PARENTS.
PhereTs a house a few miles from the city
I frequently linger outside;
Tis the home of a maid who is pretty,
A maid I would like for my bride.
{ fear that I never shall win her,
My passion is hopeless and mute.
ITm sure that her parents would skin her
If tuey thought that she smiled on my suit,
Her eyes are the purest and brichtest
That ever encouraged a hope ;
Her skin is tho softest and whitest
That ever shed luster on soap;
Her hair is the richest and goldest
That ever a hairdresser dressed,
And her parents are surely the coldest
A heroiue ever possessed.
Fler voice"it'Ts a mezzo soprano"
Would make even Patti afraid,
And the way that she plays the piano
Puts Rubinstcin quite in the shade.
More perfect she is than perfection;
Resign her I can't, and I wonTt!
And she looks upcn me with affection,
But her parents"oh, bother them"donTt.
They intend her to marry a title;
They want to address her, ~o~Your Grace.�
They've nade up their minds this is vital;
Which scratches me out of the race.
| Nor do J, in theory, blame them.
| ShoTs worthy a duke, I aver.
ItTs true ITd be puzzled to name them
| A duke who is worthy of her.
| Oh, I know sheTs beyond and above me;
I ceserve to be hung, ITm aware,
| For presuming to think she could love me,
But I donTt alfogether despair.
| Vor my heart undergocs an expansion
| When I think, what I'll tell you about,
| Of that night when I called at her mansion,
| And her parents, God bless them, were out
{
| When I think of the way she received me,
Of the way, and the worde, that I spoke,
Of the way that she blushed, and believe me,
Of the sixpence we solemnly broke,
Of the mutual hopes we confided,
As we blended our voices in song,
And that rapturous kiss we divided"
Well, her parents can go to Hongkong!
A RheumaticTs Museum.
A Fifteenth ward man who has
been a lifelong sufferer from rheu-
matism has a queer collection of al-
ileged ~curesT? arranged in a neat
cabinet. One shelf is devoted to a |
series of small, wrinkled objects
bles. They are not pebbles, hcw- |
ever, but potatoes which have be.- |
come almost petrified through being
carried a long time in the pocket of
the rheumatic gentleman. Each
| potato is marked with a small label
bearing some such inscription as
this: ~Carried from Nov. 12, 1878,
to May 18, 1880. Very efficacious. �T
The collector claims that the potato
carried in the trousers pocket has)
proved to be the best of the many
remetiies he has ever tried. He car-
rics one potato until the return of
his rheumatic twinges seem to testi-
fy to the decline of the tuberTs cura- |
tive properties. Then he takes a
new potato, and locks the old one up
in bis cabinet. On the other shelves
of the cabinet are several shriveled
horse chestnuts, a string of amber
beads, a dried up rabbitTs foot, the
right foot of ~~an eastern shoT crow,�T
a number of iron finger rings, a few
horseshoe nails, and several other
odds and ends. ~All these things
seem to have given me more or lesy
relicf,TT says the collector."Phila-
delphia Record.
Heavy Turkish Fire.
I must draw attention to that fea.
tare of the Turkish tactics which
stamped the war of 1877 with a
character of its own, a feature evi-
dent in all sections in which I took
part, in none more than in the ore
under discussion. I refer to the
quick fire of the Turkish infantry,
of such power, duration and effect
as had never before been dreamed
of. General Todleben wrote later,
~~Such a shower of lead as that with
which the Turks hail our troops has
never before been employed as &
mode of warfare by any European
army.TT It was more instinct, ex-
perience, silent consent andl confi.
dence in their weapons than training
or formulated rales which induced
the Turkish foot soldiers to adopt
this mode of fighting. I had wit
nessed quick fire drillin Widdin, but
I venture to say that it was not un-
til after the first battle that the offi.
cers became really conscious of the
terrific power of long sustained quick
~fatherTs Hat,TT detecicd anywhere,
is good for ex-President Harrison.
| Mr. Blaine.
~a wonderful
fire.
Our orders were briefly as fol-
lows: ~~As soon as you know or sup-.
pose the enemy to be within range
of your rifles cover the space pre-
sumably occupied by him or pre-
sumably to be traversed by him
with quick fire, independent of dis.
fance, duration, difficulty of aim, |
probability of hitting and consump
fionTof cartridges.� Thé awful of
fect npon: the opponent of this rule,
if carried out as literally and as
Turks, is apparent in the Russian
out the Plevna campaign the Rus.
