Tlie day is cold and bleak; Fauvette gathers the blanket more closely around her thinly clad form and over her head as she looks down the road aud discovers far away, in the direction of her own home, a cloud of dust. It is not the dust of the diligence, for that went by an hour ago; ; Fauvette noticed it particularly, because it was going fast. The horses were gal- I loping, and Raptiste wa3 urging: them on as though something were coming in l pursuit. Had Baptiste been running away from that which made the clouds of dust? and was that which made the ; cloud the German army? Fauvette's heart stood still as this1 thought came to her. She knew there I was war in the country, but as yet it had not come anywhere near Champvillers, j which was the village where Fauvette 1 lived. Had it come near so soon? "When i she left home that morning with Bebe there had been no thought of the Ger- i mans; had they arrived already? She looked around at Bebe, who was trying almost vainly to get some pasturage out of the stubble of the field. Then she looked again at the cloud of dust. It had lifted a little by this time, and un- j derneath Fauvette could see the glimmer ' of bayonets and the forms of horses and men. Yes, it was the German army? j there could be no doubt of that. At the first thought she started to run. | But where should she go? The soldiers j were between her and the village; she; could not leave Bebe, and Bebe would j not willingly go in the opposite direction from home. Eveu if Bebe consented j the soldiers would very soon overtake ; her. But if she staid would they not take Bebe and herself, too? of, if they let her go, would they not carry Bebe off? Fauvette's heart now beat quick and fast The soldiers were coming rapidly nearer, j r_ jj . i,1 J: u AU.:. lilUCCU, M1U IUU1U UlMlUgUlSLl tUUil j faces. The man in lront on horseback was old and ugly. Could that be the Count Bismarck,she wondered. Fauvette crept up to Bebe's side and laid her arm over the cow's neck. For the first time Bebe looked up, and seeing the soldiers, gazed at them with a look of gentle surprise. Bebe was Fauvette's special care. Fauvette's elder sister, Lucie, looked after the children, and helped the mother at home, while Fauvette brought the cow to pasture, and iu these troubled times Btaid with it all day. At this season it was cold work, and there was little in the field for Bebe to eat. Pretty soon her task would end, and the cow would live at home with the rest of the family, having better quarters, indeed, than they had themselves. Fauvette now wished that it had ended before to day, so that she might not have met the soldiers in this exposed place. The officer at the head, who, though Fauvette did not know it, was only a colonel, eyed the cow, as he rode up, with grim satisfaction. "An 1" He exclaimed, in his own tongue, "this will make fine steaks. Leave the cow, girl, and go back to your village.. No one will hurt you." Fauvette stood still. She did not understand German, though she guessed at what he said. "Ach!" exclaimed the officer "who can jpeak this detestable tongue? Where is there a man who knows the French?" The colonel looked up and down the line. Several of the men appeared ready to answer, when the attention of all was . attracted to a young aid-de-camp, who came galloping up the road, and demanded to know what was the matter. The colonel pointed to Fauvette and the :ow* "I am just about to tell the girl to go , home to the village and leave the cow," tie said, "but unhappily I am not ready i with foreign languages. When I have j lomething to say in French, I require ! flelp." The young man smiled. Then turning ! to Fauvette, he said to her, in her own ; tongue: "My poor child, the colonel > wishes me to tell you that you must; leave the cow and go home. You live \ in the village wc have just passed, do you not?" Fauvette gazed at him calmly. She was terrible afraid, and her face was pale, but otherwise she did not show it. ''Oui, monsieur," she said; ''I live in i :he village, and I should be glad to go frack, but I cannot leave Bebe." The young aid de-camp?he was little more than a boy?looked at her pityingly. ''But you must," he said; "the iolonel says so." Her eyes flashed. "What do I care for the colonel" she said. "If he kills Bebe, he must kill me too." "Oh, he won't kill you," said the boy. "We don't fight children. But he wants :he cow, don't you see." "What does he want it for?" asked Fauvette, gravely. "Why, to eat, I suppose," he stamaaered,not wishing to hurt her more than accessary, but yet telling the truth as from habit. "Toeat!'exclaimed Fauvette. "My! Beautiful Bebe! If she was yours, would ; fou let anybody kill her?" He looked admiringly at Bebe's mouse:olored velvet skin and large soft eyes. "Well, no.I wouldn't," he said, frankly. "Well, I won't, either;" and she :lasped her arms tightly around the feature's neck. The young man walked helplessly over to the colonel. "I can't seem to perluade her, sir," he said. The colonel laughed. "Oh, well then, . we'll use force," he said. Turning to his nen, he ordered two of them to take the ~ jirl aw^ from the cow. ?>iitfeyon"goiug to kill the cow ?" the roung aide-de-camp iisked. "Certainly," said the colonel. "Pray sxplain to the prince the e::ii?e of the lelay, and say we shall be moving di- 1 ectly." The young man, with another look at Fauvette, turned around and rode rapdly off, while the two men, at the colrnel's direction, stepped up to the child's dde. ' Come!" one of them demanded in Serman. Fauvette did not move. Her hold of Bebe tightened, and she looked up at the rude soldiers with defiance flashing from ler black eyes. "So!" exclaimed the man; "then I nust make you." And he proceeded, lot very gently, to loosen the arms that were clinging to Bebe's neck. Fauvette creamed loudly, while she tried to hold )o, but her strength was small compared :o the men's, and in a moment one of ;hem had dragged her away, while the other was trying to puil the cow in an opposite direction. But for once Bebe's j stubbornness served her a good turn. Whether she understood their designs or | not, the cow would not move one step; j ind when they tried to drag her, she j planted her feet firmly on the ground, i put down her head, and uttered a gentle ' hut. '"Muni'' The men looked helplessly at the colonel, who was very j angry. For the sake of a cow the whole i detachment had bt-en detained fifteen ' minutes. A less forbearing man than U. himself would have shot it at once. J Presently the aide-de-camp would be coming up again to see why they had not moved. "Shoot the cow!" he cried, passion- | ately. In order to raise his gun, Fauvette's captor had to let her go. Quick as thought the girl rushed back, and, while the guns were pointed at her, threw her arms one# more around Hebe's neck. "Now fire!''she cried, stamping her foot; "fire and kill me too." It was this tableau that the young man saw as he came dashing up again; the asgrv colonel on horseback, the soldiers leveling their guns, and the patient cow protected by the child. "Good heavens!" he cried, riding in between the soldiers and Fauvette, and making himself the target for their fire, "do you mean to kill the child?" The men, who had no wish for the business, lowered their muskets, while the lad saluted the colonel. ''Here is j an order from the prince,'' he eaid, pro- j during a bit of paper, "permitting the' child to take the cow back to the village, lam directed to Bee that it is executed." The colonel, with an angry frown upon his face, turned away and gave the order to advance. Presently the regiment was in motion. Ihe dust had, arisen, and, freed from her persecutors, j Fauvctte was left alone with the I young man. The soldiers were i marching by, but she did not mind j them now. ISebe, too, was quite composed, and had resumed her feeding, j j Fauvette would never complain again ; that Hebe was stubborn, if Hebe had j j noi been stubborn to-day, where might 1 she not be now/ But Fauvette had not I | yet thanked the young man who was waiting on horseback by her side. "I thank you very much," she said, j timidly, looking up into the boy's handsome face, "if they had killed Hebe they would have killed me too." "Oh, they wouldn't have done that,'' , he said. "Only their guns might have i gone off accidentally." "She hesitated a moment. "Yes," she , said, "they might have gone off when you stood before them." He colored a little. "I am a soldier," j he said. "A soldier does not think about such things." Fauvette looked at him admiringly. "You are very briwc," she said. The aide-de-camp smiled. "Oh, no, I'm not," he hastened to say. "Why, the other day, when I went into battle for the first time, it was just as much as 1 could do to keep from running away. ; I expected that every bullet would hit j me, and every time I heard one of them siug, I said good-bye." "That was the tirst time," said Fauvette, Indulgently. "You wouldn't feel that way again. My grandfather fought with Napoleon, and" he says that is the way he used to feel." "Did your grandfather fight with Na-1 poleon?" the boy asked. "How I should J like to hear him tell about it!" "Oh, that's easy enough," said Fauvette. "If you will come back to the village he will tell you anything you want to know. But I forgot," she j added hurriedly: "you are a German." He nodded. "Yes," he said, "I'm a German; but I'm going back to see you safe to the village all the same." The soldiers had now mostly passed by, and a number of elegant persons on 1 horseback were bringing up the rear. I Hiding up to one of these, the aide-de-' camp held a brief conversation. Then ' wheeling around his horse, he came back i to Fauvette. "Yes," he said: "I may take you back j to the village. There is another detach- I ment of our men there, whom I am to : order forward. Will the cow go?" Happily Bebe had lorgotten her stub- : borness, or else she understood that1 home was the safest place for her. She j made no objections when Fauvette told I her to go. on, and even allowed the j young man, wno naa swung rauvette up into the saddle, to urge her forward : with his horse. The cow could not go [ very fast, however, and it took some time to reach the village. Half a mile away they heard the sound of tiring, and off to the right, where Fauvette told the boy another road ran, hung a cioud of dust such as she had seen before that morning. When they reached the village, how still it was! Not a soldier was ti be seen. What had become of them? | the aide-de-camp wondered. There was no time, however, for him to be either frightened or surprised. Hardly had his horse's hoof sounded 011 the street when out of every ; house rushed a troop of soldiers, half a dozen of whom grasped the lad's bridle. For an instant both he and Fauvette J were too much astonished to speak. The girl, who recognized familiar faces, was J the first to recover herself. "Ah!" she cried, let him go. He has j saved my life and Bebe's." At the same moment an officer came out of the inn door. "Your name and . rank, monsieur,,1 he demanded, briefly. The lad drew himself up proudly i until his slender figure seemed that of a j man. His frauk, boyish face glowed, j and his blue eyes flashed fire. "Carl Ludwig von bcnomDerg, ' ne saia, in French, "lieutenaut in the German army, j and grand duke of Iloenstauffen-Stein- j rnetz." The officer bowed. "Thanks, your j highness," hi said. ''It is unfortunate, but your soldiers, whom I presume you expected to find here, have evacuated the village, and you are the prisoner of the French." Fauvette's lip trembled. She was still on horseback, protected by the young officer's arm. "But he came back to bring me," she cried. "If it had not been for him, I would have been killed." "That will be considered," said the | officer, "but at present Lieutenant Von j Schomberg is our prisoner. Will you j please dismount, sir?" The boy let one of the men whom Fau- ; vette knew take her down and then dis- i mounted himself. 'Now, sir," said the French officer, 'if you will come into the cabaret you will find there some of your companions." The lad turned to where Fauvette stood crying on Bebe's neck. "Do not cry, my child," he said; "it is only the fortune of war." "But it was for me," she sobbed. "If i it had not been for me you would be with your prince now. He smiled kindly. "I should no doubt have come back anyhow,'1 he said. Don't vex yourself, little one; and adieu." Her face lighted up through her tears. "Ah, no," she whispered, looking hurriedly around to see if any one over-!. heard?"Au revoir." What did she mean? the duke had wondered as the officer led him off to ! the cabaret. He would hardly see her aijain, for the next day, if uot earlier, they would surely take him off to 3Ietz, or wherever else the French kept their prisoners. It was an inglorious ending to his military career, but he had served the little peasant maiden and saved a 1 cow's life; and he was sure he would rather have done that than kill someone j in battle. Ilis rank enabled him to have a room to himself in the upper story of the cabaret, and left alone, with a sentinel outside the door and another beneath the window, he had time to reflect upon these things, and to wonder what the priuce would think when he did not reappear. and whether they would send back for him. They would hardly do that, he concluded, since they were anxious to get ahead as fast as possible. He was unwilling to admit it, but there did not seem to be any very good prospect j of his immediate release. All the after noon ne was ieu unuisiurui-u.auu wuca the darkness shut down there were no j signs that he wns to be removed that night. At midnight, however, the key turned in the lock, the door opened, and some one stood in the room. "Are you awake?" whispered a soft voice. It was Fauvette's voice, and the boy's heart gave a thrill of hope. "Oh, yes," he answered, "I couldn't go to sleep, you know." She came up to him and laid her hand on his arm. "Listen," she said. "The soldiers are all asieep. My uncle, who keeps the inn, has drugged their wine, and my father holds your horde before the door. There is nothing between you and your army. You must go at once." He hesitated a moment. "And you?" he said. "Oh. I am all right," she answered. "This is my home, no one will harm me." He could not see her face in the darkness, but he guessed that the black eyes were full of tears. "You are a good girl," he said. "Tell me your name. You know 1 did not learn that." "My name is Fauvette," she said, simply?Fauvette Marets." "Ah,"he said, "Ishall always remember the brave little owner of that name. Then taking her hand he lingered a moment in the door. "Adieu," she said quietly. "Nein," he exclaimed; "it shall not I be adieu. I will surely see you again | some day.'' He leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Auf wiederschen, Fauvette," and clasping her hand,he passed ' swiftly out into the hall and down the dark stairs. v. . , * In a moment Fauvette heard the muffled clatter of the horse's hoofs on the hard road, and then, with the tears in her eyes, she crept down the stairs herself, and went to her own home.?Eliat McCormiek, in Young People. A Japanese Dinner. One of the latest additions to the attractions of the health exhibition is the Japanese restaurant,with a real Japanese dinner, prepared by native cooks, and served in Japanese fashion, is to be had for four shillings. The first soup?there are two, one at the beginning and one at the end?is delicious; not unlike the stock of Julienne or gravy soup, but with an added flavor worth knowing. The little bowl of rice is very much what a teacupful of plain rice, well boiled, would be at any English table; but the wine of the country, which one is invited to take with it, is rather like cowslip mixed with indifferent Sauterne. The small platter of salmon and prawns is tasty enough, and the cucumber, with shredded shrimps. or something like them,to a separate bowl, needs no improvement, but the whole does not go well with a cupful of substance looking like haricot beans beautifully boiled, and well sugared. A nice piece oi Inea nsn, sole or waiting ?have they soles in Japan??served with exquisite sauce,is followed by the second soup, which completes the repast. There is a novel sensation in finding one's food served on porcelain or papier mache, which looks as if it came from the drawing-room, rather than the kitchen, and there is the pleasing perplexity of trying to eat with chop-sticks,and finding one's self as clumsy as one's neighbors, until hunger compels a demand for a fork. It may be added that the cosmopolitan champagne goes admirably with the dinner, and that during the later hours of the evening the tables are crowded; but we must repeat that it is curiosity rather than hunger which is satisfied.?London Standard. After Nineteen Tears. Nineteen years ago a female infant was left with an old Irishwoman in Boston by its young parents, who boarded with her, supposably under an assumed name. The only clew to them was a handkerchief bearing initials, which was with the child's effects. The little one grew up in iguorance of its father or mother, cared for by the old woman and her family. After a lapse of years, a peculiai growth appeared on the lid of one of the child's eyes. She was taken to an occulist, who remarked upon the singularity of the case, and said he had operated only upon one other similar case in the course of his practice,and that was upon the eye of a | wealthy lady in a city near Boston. Herq w?s the long-hidden clew to the child's identity. The person who took the little girl to the occulist reported what the doctor had said. An attorney was called in, and it was, in the process of a lrmrr in voaflrrntinn that the *VM6 ~ I - I name upon the handkerchief was the name of the manufacturer's wife and the girl's mother. The girl was, several months ago, confronted with her father and mother. A settlement by the payment of several thousand dollars for back board and an annuity of SI,500 for th6 daughter, now a young lady, was effected, it is said. When the child was abandoned the husband of the lady was a poor bookkeeper. It was feared it is said, that the birth of the baby would anger a relative of the mother who was possessed of means, and so the child was given up. To-day the j bookkeeper is a wealthy manufacturer. He has a family who have grown up in entire ignorance of their eldest sister. Tlie Blue Grass Country not Blue. The term "Blue Grass Region" ot Kentucky is quite extensive in its application, but in its popular sense it applies only to the remarkable body of land in the center of the State, which comprises six or eight countries surrounding Lexington. The favored district, which scientific authority has styled 14 the very heart of the United States," is underlaid by a decomposable limestone, which imparts to the soil an unsurpassed fertility, and <?ives to irrass. known to botanists \s Poe Pretensis, a rich and permanent lu'? I uriance which it attains nowhere else. ] Hence the term ''The Blue Grass j Region," a synonym for the acme of fer- ' tility of a district which also bears the proud distinction of " the garden spot of the world." But why our grass is called ''blue," when it never is blue, is one of the unsolved problems. It is always green except when in bloom, when the heads have a brownish purple tint. If. however, the term "blue grass" is meant for an abbreviation of blue limestone grass, then it will do, for certainly it only reaches its highest perfection on wonderful blue limestone soil. Propagated without cultivation, it comes up thick and juicy early in the spring, ripens in June, renews its growth in autumn, and, retaining its verdure in spite of snow and ice, furnishes abundant and i unequaled pasturage during the entire winter. It is believed to be indigenous.?Sportsman. The Chinese Cabinet Maker. I noticed a door aud a window in a courtyard with a very original lattice. I had succeeded in getting a few similar ones, and when time failed me 1 rubbed black all over a sheet of papei and then applied it to the lattice, thus obtaining a faithful life-sue copy. The Chinese paper being strong, although fine, was eminently suitable to this sort of drawing, and also to copying inscriptions on stones or walls. Not having any j such paper about me I begged a Chinese | to go and fetch some for me, which he : did with alacrity, and when I explained j what I was going to do he ran and got I me a stool that I might reach l lie window ! with greater facility. Some of them held | it all the time, and when they inquired why I was doing this, I told them that the design was very beautiful, and that T desired to have a window like it in my own house. This pleased and flattered thera greatly, and to enhance the merits of their town they told me the artist was ; a native cabinet maker; some of thera even ran to fetch him. I complimented him on his work, but he was very modest about it. I then tore a sheet of paper out of my notebook, and, to leave him a remembrance, sketched my own likeness and offered it for his acceptance. The onlookers recognized the drawing and uttered exclamations of approval. The cabinet maker ran off with It greatly delighted, accompanied by a crowd of admirers. I only mention this fact to prove how easy it is to disarm the distrust and hostility of a Chinese crowd.?"A Russian Through China." Sumatra Cannibalism. A friend of the writer's, who for more than forty years has been in the employment of the Dutch government, bears personal witness to th? prevalence of (he custom in Sumatra up till recent times. He was once making scientitic investigations in the interior of that isiand, and was being entertained in the most hospitable manner by the native rajch, or chief, of the place he was then in.

Terrific Scenes of Excitement in New York, Graphic Description of a Night at Madison Square. During the first few nights succeeding the ^ election, New York went wild with excite- | ment. Around Printing House square, where the leading newsj>apers have their oftt- i ces, and in tho vicinity of Madison Square, where tho headquarters of j both political parties were situated, dense j crowds of excited men surged to and fro all : day long, shouting, hurrahing and groaning according as the returns received were favorable or unfavorable to their candidates. We quote from the Sun's account of the scenes witnessed on the Thursday night following the election, when the excitement seemed to have reached a climax : A swollen tide of humanity choked Madison square last night. It swept to and fro j with a hoarse ancf continuous roar. Recurring burets of ^excitement set thousands of hats swaying over the black and white expanse of nats and faces. A broker of herculean frame, with a big beaver, whose lustrous polish reflected the electric glare of the square stepped out of the crush into Fifth avenue at j 7 o clock, and shouldered a brand-new broom ; like a musket. The Seventh Regiment band, | cnnt. fmm tho Democratic headauarters, | formed in ranks behind him, and blew into j the trumpets till their eyes bulged and thumped the drums till the air shook with the boom. Then the Wall street Hercules twirled his broom with the dazzling intricacy of a trained drum major and shouted, "Fall | in for Cleveland." Well-dressed men shouldered other brooms and walking sticks quick as lightning, and by I tho time the band had marched half a block j there were more than twenty ranks of twenty ' files front tramping in the roadway. When I the procession had inade just one circuit of the square there were more than 2,030 men in line, and new lines formed every minute. Big portraits of Cleveland were spiked on the canes and tied to the brooms. No torchlight procession ever awakened the uproar that greeted the paraders. The big throng cheered m sections of 100 as it tramped, and shouted in time with the tremendous melody of the band various couplets. The procession wheeled right into the midst of the throng that swayed before the Republican national committee. Burning papei crackled in the wind like blazing pine knots over the heads of the processionists, and tt,00C lungs made tho air vociferous with the shout "Burn, burn, burn this letter." "Left, left, Jim Blaine is left." Silken flags waved over the heads of th? loya! Republican masses, and a thousand Bfaine men sent back this answer with a 1,000 lung-power enthusiasm: " Blaine, Blaine, James G. Blaine. We give three cheers for President iJlaine.' ' The uproar on the sidewalk never let up in the face of the wild roar in the roadways. Portraits of Cleveland fell down on the crowd from the house tops like a snow storm. Everybody yelled for Cleveland and Blaine till his voice gave out, and then used up the rest of his wasted breath in laughing at the nimble newsboys who industriously sowed seeds ol uncertainty in tho wind with real shouts ol "Extra?Cleveland elected sure." " Extra?Blaine carries New York." By 10 o'clock the crowd had shouted so constantly that its lungs refused to respond to Cleveland returns on the stereopticon. President Arthur stepped into his carriage and drove away unnoticed, because everybody in the neighborhood had his eyes riveted on the canvas transparency. All the crowd in Union square had drifted up around Madison square and lost itself in the ocean. When Chairman Gorman's proclamation that the United States had elected Cleveland and Hendricks big pictures of Cleveland and legends of victory had been hung all over the front of the national committee's headquarters and brooms sprouted from tho window sills. There was an irstont of silence as the proclamation was read aloud. The next instant Bloomingdale, in its wildest moments, would have been a Concord School of Philosophy caim compared with Madison square. Cheers swept all along the line and into the hotel, and the entire throng took up the shout: "It's all right! It's all right!" "No, no, no 'seventy-six." The procession swept along with a fresh blare of trumpets, and thousands on the sidewalk joined m the campaign song of the marchine thousands: "Oh, keep those bells a-ringing, "While he climbs up the White House stairs.'' When the crowd behind the band had t swelled to 3,000 the enthusiasm was at its height, and the crowd sang the popular airs while the musicians played them, and the crowd that lined the sictawalks yelled in time with the swing of the leader's "staff. Wher it seemed as though it were to be an all-nighl affair, things came to a sudden close. Thirty policemen with drawn clubs faced the heao of the procession. It wanted to keep right on but the leader was led away by an officer three quarters his height, and upon this the band aisbanded. The crowd behind resisted for t [ while, but no violence was attempted, anc while those out of reach of clubs groaned al the policemen,those within arxnswin; did not thins of it. They had no permit to {arade,th? police said. When tho ranks were finally broken up, the crowd went on in the usual tenor of its way. shouting and yelling, and applauding every one who got up a new cry. Five hundred men gathered opposite tho Young Men's Democratic club on Twenty-fourth street and did some energetic groaning. Under the lead of a powerful lunged voung man they groaned for nearly everything. By this time it was 11 o clock, and the stereopticon managed by the World, was beginning to get the crowd excited. The following was flashed on tho canvass repeatedly, " Are Democratic processions allowed in this city ?" They are not^-not without permits. But the taunt soon had tno aesirea euecc, anu u second procession was soon organized. It was not as large as its predecessor, but it was more excited. Five to eight hundred men, all well dres.-eJ, formed in line outside the Democratic club and started up Fifth avenue, where Jay Gould lives, all yelling together: " Hang, hang, Hang Jay Gould," or singing: " We'll hang Jay Gou'd on a sour apple tree." They had got only two blocks up the avenue, however, when the policy headed by Sergeant King, made for them again, and succeeded iu once more breaking them up, although with more difficulty than at first. A number of excited Germans cursed the police roundly in German and Knglish, and a fight seemed imminent when twenty young fellows gathered around and gave three cheers for Sergeant King. That turned popular opinion his way, and the procession dispersed peaceably. The sergeant and Captain Williams, undei whose orders he acted, said the processions were broken up siinplj- because they had nc permit to parade. People could yell as much as they choose, if they didn't get in line. The stereopticon kept on wanting to know why Democrats couldn't parade, and inviting the crowd to a mass meeting of protestation before the treasury building ?t o:3(> this afternoon. The inquiry did not succeed in provoking a disturbance, and the meeting lias been postponed. The yelling and bowling o< the crowd responded promptly to every bulletin, and it looked as if they bad forgotten that it was past bedtime. The Seventh regimental band serenaded Senator Gorman, Chairman of the National Democratic Executive committee, at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Senator Gorman spokf briefly, asserting that Cleveland and Hen dricks had carried New York. At 11:40 a crowd of roughs came over in a body to the front of headuuarters. Thev began to groan and jeer, anu the large Blaine crowd replied. A savage fight followed, in which fully a dozen men took part. The two crowds attacked each other, and a serious riot was threatened. Roundsman Chapman was on the steps of headquarters, and thero were eight unusually large policemen held in reserve in the hall. He called them out, and they charged the crowd with drawn clubs. Thev tossed men to the right and left like children, and forced their way to the fighters. These they soon dispersed. Five minutes later there was another light in which canes were freely used and several hats smashed. Another chargo of the police ended that. No arrests were made, and nobody was hurt by the clubs.

Revised Returns From Every State in the Union. Cleveland and Hendricks the Successful Candidates. The following election returns are made up from the latest telegraphic reports to the New York papers, and are correct up to. the hour of going to press: ALABAMA, Montgomery city gives 500 majority for Blaine. Scattering returns from different quarters of the State show that Cleveland carried the State by a large majority. Democratic Congressmen are probably elected in all the eight districts. ARKANSAS. A Little Rock dispatch says the State has gone Democratic by the usual heavy majority. A solid Democratic Congressional delegation was elected. CALIFORNIA. In California 286 precincts and ward? in forty-four counties give Blaine 20,620, and Cleveland 21,820. The same places gave Garfield 21,674 and Hancock 18,71S in 1880. Later returns give the State to the Republicans by about 8,000 majority. COLORADO. Denver dispatches say: The indications are that Blaine has carried the State by 4,000. Eaton (Republican), for governor is elected by 2,000, and Symes (Republican), for Congress, by a still less majority. Breene (Republican), for lieutenant-governor, is probably defeated. CONNECTICUT. With thirteen small towns to hear from, which will not change the result, Blaine has 6S,443; Cleveland 64,146: scattering. 3,587. Harrisou (Rep.), for governor, 63,847; Waller (Dem.), for governor, 65,594; scattering, 2,787. Representatives?144 Republican, 80 Democratic. Cleveland's majority in the State is put at 1,200. Waller, Democratic candidate for governor, did not obtain the necessary majority over all, and the gubernatorial election goes to the legislature, which is Republican. DELAWARE. Delaware went Democratic by an esti mated majority of between 2,000 and 8,000. Love was re-elected Congressman. FLORIDA. A Jacksonville dispatch says that indications point to the election of Perry, Democrat, for governor by 5,000 majority, and the Cleveland electors by 4,000 majority. Both Davidson and Dougherty, Democrats, are elected from the two congressional districts by safe majorities, and the State legislature will have an increased Democratic majority in both houses. Later returns placed the Democratic majority at 4,000. GEORGIA. The returns indicate the election of the entire Democratic delegation to Congress. Cleveland's majority in the State will approximate SO,000. ILLINOIS. A Chicago di.-ipatch says: Reports from all over the State indicate a heavy vote. The most conservative probabilities are that Blnine will come to Cook county by at least 20,000 plurality. The outlook now is that he will carry the State by 1.1,000 plurality, and that Oglesby's plurality for governor will be considerably under 10,000. Later returns confirm this estimate. It was believed the legislature would be a tie on joint ballot. The legislature will elect a United States Senator. INDIANA. An Indianapolis dispatch says: "All but fifteen counties have reported to the Democratic State committee, showing Democratic gains, 5,587; Republican gains, 5,563. This on basis of 1882, when the State went Democratic by 10,684. Gains and losses in fifteen counties can not possibly reduce the Democratic majority of 1882 more than 2,000, leaving Cleveland 8,000. The legislature will be Democratic, which insure Voorhees' return to the Senate." Fuller reports confirmed this estimate. IOWA. Returns from various sections of the 8tate indicated that it had been carried for the Blaine electors by about 80,000 majority over the Fusionists. The Democrats probably elected Congressmen in the First, Second, Fourth &nd Sixth districts. The Seventh, Eighth, Tenth and Eleventh are Republican. KANSAS. The Republican electoral ticket, with all the Republican candidates for Con gress was successful in Kansas by large majorities. KENTUCKY. Louisville dispatches says the returns from the county seats throughout the State declare that the election passed off quietly, and full vote was polled. The State will give a the usual Democratic majority. The Democrats elect a full Congress delegation. There is a Republican loss of two in the House of Representatives. LOUISIANA. A New Orleans dispatch says: "The election passed oil quietly. Few returns have been received, but they indicate a clean sweep for the Democrats." Later returns give the Democratic electoral ticket 20,1)00 majority. MAINE. The vote 90 far shows Republican gains over September, and the Kennebec Journal (Republican) says the indications are that Blaine will carry the State by 25,000. Later figures do not vary mueh from this estimate. MAltTJ.AND. In Maryland the Democratic electoral ticket was successful by about 16,000 majority, and the Congressional delegation stands live Democratic to one Republican. MASSACHUSETTS. A Roston dispatch says: "The Repuolican majority of 50,000 for Garfield has disappeared, and there remains only a plurality of it few thousand for the Hepublican ticket. If the Independents who cut off the head of the ticket or voted for St. John had voted ns was expected, Blaine would have failed to carry the State. It is thoueht the Blaine plurality will be within a few hundred of 10,000.'' More complete returns changed this estimate to a plurality of about 24,000 for the Republican electoral ticket. MICHIGAN". In Michigan first returns from 131 nrprinptfl. ir.ivn Rliiino 20.74R : (Jlevc land, 17,11/3: Hutlcr, I],912; St. John, :{.54:3; Alger for governor, 20,130; Hegole, 10,883; Preston, 2,085: a Democratic net gain of 2,584. Later returns indicated the success of the Republicans by a small plurality, while the gubernatorial race was close. MINNESOTA. Minnesota has given the usual heavy majority for the Hcpublican electoral tickct. MISSISSIPPI. The Democratic majority in Mississippi iB between thirty-five and forty thousand. The entire congressional delegation it electcd. Chalmers (Hep.) is defeated in the Second district, and Pearce (colored). Republican, ran behind tho presidential ticket in the Shoestring district. MISSOURI. M. K. MtGrath, the secretary of stab of Mieaouri. gave his views of the situation there as follows: "There being only two electoral tickets in this State, the majority for the Cleveland electors will be CO,000 to 75,000. The Democratic nominee for governor will have a plurality of 50,000 to 60,000, and a majority of 25,000 to 85,000. The Democratic State ticket, other than that for governor, will have a majority equal to that of Cleveland. Outside of the governor and lieutenant-governor there are but two full State tickets?the Prohibitionists having nominated only the two leading candidates. I look for the election of a full Democratic Congressional delegation of fourteen members." NEBRASKA. The total vote in Nebraska will be fully 125,000, an increase of 25,000 over last year. The Republican electoral ticket is carried by an estimated majority of from 20,000 to 25,000. NEVADA. One-half the official returns from Nevada indicated that the State had gone for the Republican ticket by about 1,000 majority. Further returns placed the ArviiKli/iAn maiAVift? of QHll iki/|;uk/iiv<au uiajviibf uv uvvi NEW HAMPSHIRE. A Concord dispatch says: "Sixty-eight, towns show steady Republican gains. The Democrats concede the loss of the State for electors, governor, both Congressmen aDd the legislature. The proposition for a constitutional convention was carried by a largo majority. The Prohibition vote was very light, and that for Butler still lighter." The Republican plurality was put by later returns at between 8,000 and 4,000. NEW JERSEY. A Trenton dispatch says: "Full returns from every county in the State give Cleveland a plurality of 2,519. The btate senate is Republican by one majority, and the house is Republican by ten majority." NEW YORK. It will take the official count to exactly determine the vote of the Empire State. The New York Sun (Anti-Cleveland) Baid: "Our special correspondents have telegraphed the vote complete from 54 of tho 60 counties, and the remaining counties have been very closely estimated by experienced news gatherers and politicians nn fVio annf The? indiratn A nlnral. ity of 1,G43 for the Democratic candidate. On the other hand figures gathered by the associated press indicate a slight plurality for Mr. Blaine." The Butler vote in this State was estimated by the Sun at between 18,000 and 20,000. and St. John's vote at from 22.000 to 24,000. The Times put Cleveland'c plurality at about 1,300. The assemblj will stand about 74 Republicans to 54 Democrats. New York city clected exMayor Grace and th'e rest of the County Democracy and Citizens' municipal ticket with the exception of coroner. Tammany got the coroner and two out of the three judges.of the court of com mon pleas. Both National committees i issued addresses from their headquarters I claiming- the election. Revised returns I of the Associated Press gave Cleveland j ! majority. Thousands of congratulatory I telegrams from all parts of the union [ came pouring in upon Governor Cleve| land at the executive chamber, and man) , private houses were decorated in his j honor. Among the telegrams received | was one from Jay Gould. NORTH CAROLINA. A "Wilmington dispatch says that "re| turns from many counties remove all doubt as to the result. The Republicans concede the State to the Democrats on both presidential and State tickets. The Democrats claim that their majority | will not be less than 10,000. 'mere I seems to be little doubt that the Demo) crats have eight out of nine Congress1 men, beiner a gain of one." Further reI turns confirmed this estimate. I OHIO. A Cleveland dispatch says: Cuyahoga I county will give Blaine a round majority I of 5,000?a Republican gain of at least I 2,000 over the October election. In 1880 Garfield carried the county by nearly 7,009. This would indicate, as comEared with that yeur, that the Democrats ave gained nearly 2,000. The Scott law decision did not make any difference with the Democratic vote, as confidently expected. Latest reports would seem to indicate that the State has gone Republican by at least 20,000, a Republican gain of about 13,000. Further returns confirmed this estimate. OREGON. Oregon is Republican by from 1,500 I to 2,000. Armstrong (Republican) is elected to Congress. PENNSYLVANIA. A Philadelphia dispatch says that almost complete returns from sixty-three out of sixty-seven counties in the State show a net gain for Blaine of 23,306 over Garfield's vote of 1880. This would indicate that Blaine's plurality over Cleveand will not be less than 00,000. The delegation will stand twenty Republicans 1 and eight Democrats, a Republican gain i of four. The legislature will be dej cidedly Republican in both branches, thus secuiing the election of a Republi| can United States Senator to succeed J. i Donald Cameron. Complete returns from ' all the legislative districts in the State, ; except one county, show that the State senate will have "thirty-one Republicans and nineteen Democrats, and the house 140 Republicans and fifty-nine Democrats, with two doubtful districts. RHODE ISLAND. The Republican electoral ticket in I Rhode Island was successful by an esti| mated majority of 5,000. SOUTH CAROLINA.

Fourteen remaining towns gave in 1880 a RcSublican plurality of 825. The estimated epublican plurality is 23,000. VIRGINIA. A Richmond dispatch says: Official j and semi-official leturns from fifty-nine ! counties and all the cities of Virginia j give Cleveland 11,784 majority. These | returns embrace many of the large ReI publican counties, and indicate that the I State will give Cleveland from 11,000 to j 10,000 majority. ' Furtiier returns give , the Democratic majority at about 12,000. WEST VllUil.MA. A Wheeling dispatch sajs that "returns from eighteen counties, exactly oncI third of the State, give a net Republican gain of 1,900 over the October election. There are fifty-four counties in the State. This ratio would give the Fusion ticket, Blaine and Butler, 1,900 majority.'' La ter advices, however, gave the State to the Democratic electors by about 4,000. WISCONSIN. A Milwaukee dispatch states that returns from 188 towns and wards show n net Democratic gain of 7,778 on the presidential ticket as compared with 1880. Hhould a proportionate gain be shown for the Democratic ticket in the remaining precincts. Blaine will have carried the State by 10,000 majority. Later returns are showing a smaller average Democratic gain. Another dispatch from t the chairman of the Democratic State j committee says that "Wisconsin is pro- : bably for the Blaine electorial tickct be- < twecn 5,000 and 6,000 plurality." Still j later returns gave the State tc tho Re- j publicans by about 1,000 plurality.

Stump & Co., three quarters of a mile from Stouchsburg, a village of 500 inhabitants, blew up this afternoon, shaking up the country for a distance of from ten to twenty miles. Tho v> works consisted of five frame buildings, the timbers of which were sent flying in all diroo tions, nothing remaining but the foundations. AH the men in the building were kiiled, so the cause of tho explosion will never be known. The names of the killed are Frank Statzr ~ married, aged thirty years; Frank Kapp, I a^ed twenty-one years, single, and Joseph kraus, aged twenty-five years, single. The buildings contained an unusual quantity aXD** .Jg of dynamite: hence the terrific shock. whiqUHp *, "'j3m was heard as far east as Reading, nearljSjjjK^.. J twenty miles away. Windows were brokeny in many houses in Stouchsburg, manv j?rsons were knocked off their feet, ana mir- B rore and pictures were shaken off the walls. ' >1B A church and several houses were nnroofed. The victims were literally blown to atoms. V At Robesonia, ten miles from Stouchsburg, a number of masons were wonting at iac ? bottom of Ferguson & Co.'s furnace stack, M which they were relining with new Are brick. V The stack was probably 100 feet high and 9 the work was nearly completed. Ten men 9 were in the stack, some at the bottom, and I others on the scaffolding above. Just as the shock of the dynamite explosion was felt S the stack quivered, there was a rumI'ling noise, followed immediately by a great deluge of bricks, completely burying six men in the bottorn of the stack. If they were not instantly killed they will be bunied to death, as the scaffolding is burning and they cannot bo reached. The names of the buried men are: * John Wenrich, Henry Spangler, Henry Stott, ! ;59 Fred Foreman, David Parsons and Joseph ;5fiG Reed. Four or five others were wounded, * : The excitement is intense, crowds of people. including the widows and orphans of the un- . fortunate men, surrounding the stack.

The performance had proceeded J without any interruption until -'^s! shortly after 9 o'clock, when some person I I shouted "Fire!" The whole audience instantly i rose to their feet and made a rush to the sevI eral doora. The great mass of people who occupied the pit in escaping therefrom met the ; crowd that was descending the stairway's ? from the gallery and a fearful blo:-k ensued. Loud cries of distress and shouts for help I arose from the mass of frightened, panic j stricken and struggling humanity. The crowd was adjund by the officers of the theatre and by the police to hold back, but the warmings and appeals were unheeded. The crazed crowd frautieally rushed toward the outlets, ! tramping and jumping over each other until | they reached the street. When the theatre . ! was finally cleared sixteen corpses were , found on the stairs lea< ling from tlie gallery, and twelve pel-sons were so badly injured that they only gave evidence that life was uot exI tinct by their piteous moanings. Upon the I first alarm being rung through the I (ity the whole fire brigade quickly went to 1 the rescue, and with the police did their uti most to allay the panic and rescue the crushed victims, but they were too late to be of much effective service. The police force, nided by volunteers, rushed into the building and endeavored to keep the entry clear by aiding all. they could to escape to the street, but the crowd was so largo that they were sadly interfered with in their humane labors.
