Most of it comes from Spain, where it is adulterated to an almost incredible degree. The chief adulterant is a common and cheap gum obtained from au acacia, which grows in great abundance in Morocco aiid along the west coast of the Sahara, and is called Barbara gum. But this is not the only substance used, for starch, flour and even sand are employed in such quantities that some of the cheap grades of licorice have oulv one-half their weight COUl- posed of the material they purport to contain. •PURK NICKEL CURRF.XCT. It is probable that the Austro-Hun¬ garian government will adopt pure nickel Air its currency. Tbe alloyed coin gen¬ erally used, containing only twenty-live |>er cent of nickel, combined with seventy-five per cent of copper, pos¬ sesses, it is considered, numerous disad¬ vantages, while the favorable points of the pure nickel piece are that, notwith¬ standing coined, its hardness, it can easily be that it has the quality of extra¬ ordinary durability, loss by wear and tear being redueed to a minimum; that it is preserved clean in circulation and that no oxidization worth mentioning sets in.—[Iron Age. Some Vegetarian Examples. Wendell Phillips was a vegetarian. He told me he had not tasted meat in fifty years, except on occasional instances when he could get nothing else to eat, and that he knew he was better off with¬ out it.

Your tongue is never at re3t.”—Texas Siftings. MISPLACED BRAGGING. He was a very tired looking man. De¬ jection was written on every line of his face, and as I was a stranger in the vil¬ lage with nothing to do and no one to talk to, I relieved my pent up spirits by expressing my sympathy with him in his troubles, whatever they were. “Thanks,” he said, “My chief trouble seems to be that I am an idiot from Idiot- ville, and that is incurable. I just got into a braggin’ match with a stranger up in the Postoffice. He bet he was richer’n I was, and I took him up just for a bluff. I told him all I had an’ more too, and after awhile he gave in, say in’ as how he wouldn't have thought it. Then I said I’d swear to it, ’n he said all right, an’ I did, an’ by thunder who do you suppose he was?” * “I don’t know,” I answered. “Who?” “The tax assessor!” he moaned. It certainly was a case of hard luck.— Philadelphia Record. SCENE AT AN INQUEST. A verdict reminding us ol the result of the famous Ravachol trial was lately given in Texas. A man had been shot dead in a little town on the upper Col¬ orado. An inquest was held on the body. The jury examined it minutely and asked the doctor: “Where did the bullet strike him?” “In the heart.” “Just in the middle?” “In the very center.” “Who shot him?” “Jase Daniels.” A dozen witnesses deposed that Jake had fired the shot, and Jake himself ac¬ knowledged the fact. The jury spent some time in consultation. “Well, gentleman of the jury,” said the Coroner, “what is your verdict?” “Your Honor, we have come to the conclusion that Jake Daniels is the best shot in the district.”—Rundschau. SHE WAS DOING HER SHARE. The young physician was tired when he returned from his evening’s calls, but as he settled back in his easy chair and his pretty wife of only a month or two took a seat beside him he asked affec¬ tionately: ha3 “And my little wife been lonely?” “O, no,” she said, animatedly; “at least not very. I’ve found something to busy myself with.” “Indeed!” he said. “What is it?” “O, I’m organizing a class. A lot of young girls and married women are in it, and we’re exchanging experiences and teaching each other how to cook.” “What do you do with the things you cook?” he asked, interestedly. “O, we send them to the neighbors just to show what we can do. There’s one boarding house gets most of it. It’s lots of fun.” “Dear little woman,” he said, leaning over and blessing her. “Always thought¬ ful of your husband’s practice. Always auxious to extend it.—Detroit Free Press. PERSECUTED HIS BARBER. “Hum!” said the irritated barber. “It’s easy enough to kick. Didn’t I slice all the hair off your face? What more do you expect for fifteen cents?” “The stubble has been removed,” re¬ monstrated the custamer, “but with it a large amount of my cuticle.” “Well, what of it?” demanded the barber, “Didn’t I dab alum on that gash in your ear?” “You did,” the exacting customer confessed, “but you cut the tip off my nose." “And I pasted it on with court plaster.” “True enough, but you severed one of my eyebrows and lost it on tho floor.” “I kept the razor out of your eye, didn’t Ii” “You did.” “And only gashed your neck in four places?” “Quite right.” “I’m afraid you’re a kicker. My ad¬ vice to you is to grow a beard or buy a safety razor and not come around in¬ sulting barbers. You’re one of those fellows that want a dollar’s worth of surgery each shave and then kick be¬ cause you weren’t chloroformed.—New York Hex aid. A Venomous Bird. But one species ot venomous bird ia known to the student of ornithological oddities—the Rpir N’Daob, or “Bird of Death,” a feathered paradox of New Guinea. It i3 not a large or formidable- looking creature, as one would naturally expect, Deing scarcely as large as a com- mon pigeon, but longer and of a more slender build. It is of a gray, glossy color without any special markings , ex- cept tbe tail, which ends with a blood* The ^ ird “ comparatively helpless, u being * ble to fly but a few feet, aad he caught without difficulty; however, it is unnecessary to say that its poisonous tite causes the native Papuans to let it severely alone. Persons bitten by the creature are seized by maddening pains, which rapidly extend tc every part of the body. Loss of sight, con¬ vulsions and lockjaw are the other symp¬ toms which follow in rapid succession. The natives say that there is not a case on record of a survival of the bite, there i> e i D g no antidote, death always ensuing Wl thin the short space of two hours.— St> Louis R eD ublic. The Ideal Tea Plantation. The finest tea plantations in China are those on the mountain side, neither too warm nor too cold, where the soil is dry although rains and dews are fre¬ quent. The force of the wind is broken, there is a maximum of sunlight, and the surrounding ground is free from weeds, or other vegetable growth. Such plau- tations are worth enormous sums of mon- ey and are controlled by the Chinese millionaires.—American Agriculturist, The military flail ca at iuto use in the Tenth Century.

Considering the many fac¬ tors entering into the contest the election passed ofE very quietly—the disturbances so far reported being of little importance. The following telegraphic dispatches tell how the voting progressed: ALABAMA. weather Montgomeay, Ala., November 8.—The was generally bad throughout this state. Alabama has gone democratic. Oates is re-elected to congress. One fatal shooting occurred here tonight. The citizens of this state voted for pres¬ idential electors and nine congressmen.

San Francisco, November 8.—This state today votes on seven congressmen, nine presidentid electors and a state legislature, which will elect a Unhid ft.aits sc. ator to suect-eu bcuaior iruituu, republican, Comparisons should be made with 1888, when Harrison carried the state by 7,000 plurality. COLORADO. D. nver. November 8.—The weather here and throughout the state is hazy, wi h a cold wind and threatening snow. The republicans and populists are gen¬ erally voting their tickets straight, but ihe other fusion faction is voting for tbe Weaver electors, scratching the state and legislature in a wholesale manner. The elections for presidential electors, two congressmen, govtrnor and other state officers. CONNECTICUT. New Haven, November 8.—The elec¬ tions in Connecticut were for presiden¬ tial electois. four congressmen, governor and state officers and the legislature, which will have the selection of a United States senator in the place of Joseph R. Hawley. FLORIDA. Jacksonville, Fia., November 8.—The day has been exceptionally fine and the vote was light in most of the counties, there being little to call out the full strength. The Clevelan d electors all go in with a majority of from 25,000 to 26,000. The state voted for presiden¬ tial electors and two congressmen. IOWA. DesMoines, November 8.—The state of Iowa does not elect a governor today, al¬ though all other state officers are to be chosen. Eleven congressmen and thir¬ teen presidential electors are to be chosen. Comparisons of tbe vote should be made with 1888, when the state went republi¬ can by 32,000 plurality. The registra¬ tion this year been unusually large. IDAHO. Boise City, November 8.—Election in Idaho was for presidential electors, one congressman, governor and other state officers and legislature. ILLINOIS. Chicago, November8.—The voting in Illinois today was for presidential elec¬ tors, twenty-two congressmen, governor and other stale officers and a legislature. The vote was also taken on giving the hgislature power to propose amendments to two articles of the state constitution at the same session. INDIANA. Indianapolis, Ind., November 8—Vot¬ ing in this state today was for presiden¬ tial electors, thirteen congressman, a governor and other state officials and a legislature which will select a successoi to United States Senator David Turpie, democrat. KANSAS. Topeka, November 8.—Kansas voted to¬ day for presidential electors, eight con¬ gressman, governor and other state offi¬ cers, and a legislature which will have the naming of a United States senator in place of Bishop W. Perkins, who was appointed to serve until the election of a successor to Senator Plumb, deceased. Ten presidential electors, eight con¬ gressmen, dricts, full one at large, and seven by dis- a state ticket and a new leg¬ islature is voted for. The comparison should be made on the electoral ticket with 1888, when Hariison carried the state by 8,000 plurality. MASSACHUSETTS. Boston, November 8.—Voting in Mas¬ sachusetts today was for presidential electors, thirteeu congressmen, governor and other state officers and a legislature which will select a successor to United States Senator Henry L. Dawes. MICHIGAN. Detroit, Mich., November 8.—Michi¬ gan elects presidential electors, twelve congressmen, governor aod other state officers and a legislature which will choose a United States senator in place of Francis H. Stock bridge. MAINE. Bangor, Me., November 8.—Maine elected her congressmen, and state offi- cers in September, and the voting today was for presidential electors only. The ■weather is fine and warm, but the vote is evidently smaller throughout the state than in September. The conclusion is that the vote throughout the sta'e will be smaller than in September, and the republican plurality will be as large, or larger. MINNESOTA. St. Paul, November 8.—The election in Minnesota today is for presidential elec¬ tors, seven Congressmen, governor and other state officers and a legislature which will name a successor to United States Senator Cushman K. Davis,repub¬ lican. Two amendments to the state constitution were also voted upon. NEW YORK. New York, November 8.—The weath¬ er was bright and clear here today. It is doubtlul if in years there have been so many officials and w'orkers about the polls. All parties had legions of men employed and these added to impectors, ballot clerks, police, United States mar¬ shals and supervisors made the scene a lively one. During the early hours all indications pointed to a quiet electio n At the polling places there was an un¬ usual scene of activity. In the first place the new ballot law is not yet clear to all citizens and time and lime again the clerks had to instruct the voters. There were more ballot boxes than usual on account of the three ronstitutio: al amendments that were voted on. NEVADA Virginia City, November 8.--In Neva ia today the election w»* f r nri«»d/>nt : n electors, one congressman, judge of the supreme court and a legislature which will name a successor to William M. Stew¬ art, republican. NORTH CAROLINA. election Raleigh, N. C., November 8.—The The passed off quietly in this state. weather was misty but not disagree¬ able. A full democratic vote was polled while the republicans and third party cast a lighter vote than was expected. Although there was less political excite¬ ment than ever before,an unusually large vote was cast. The greater part of North Carolina’s stay at home vote of twenty- five or thirty thousand, broke the ranks and helped the democrats largely. Every¬ the thing indicates a democratic victory presiden¬ in state. The voting was for tial electors, nine congressmen, governor and other state officers and legislature. NEBRASKA. Lincoln, November 8.—In Nebraska today the voting was for presidential electors, six congressmen, governor and other state rfficers and a legislature which will have the choosing of United States senator in the place of Algernon S, Paddock. Two proposed amendments to the state constitution were also voted upon. NEW HAMPSHIRE. Lancaster, N. H., November 8.—The parties are divided about as in 1888, with chances in favor of a slieht Cleveland gain. On governor, McKenna, demo¬ crat, will lose a few votes. For congress, Parker, republican, will undoubtedly make quite a gain over Baker, democrat. The republican county ticket will be elected by the usual majority. OHIO. Columbus, November 8.—Citizens of the Buckeye State voted for presidential electors, twenty-one congressmen, secre¬ tary of state and minor officers. OREGON. Portland, November 8. Oregon voted only for presidential electors today. PENNS YLY AVIA. Philadelphia, vNovember 8.—The weath all over Pennsylvania was clear, crisp and cool. Reports from all parts of the state indicate that a surprisingly hfavy vote was polled. There is much interest in the new ballot system, and this apparently brought out all of the voters. RHODE ISLAND. Providence, November 8.—The day opened rainy and gloomy, but before 1 o’clock the skies cleared and it was warm and pleasant. Under this weather con¬ dition a heavy vote was polled in this city and apparently throughout the state. SOUTH CAROLINA. Columbia, S. C., November 8.—South Carolina polled a light vote. About 80,- 000 votes were cast and the democratic majority is in the neighborhood of 42,- 000. Several democratic congressmen, a solid delegation, were elected. There was no trouble throughout the state. The voting was for presidential electors, and congressmen, governor and other state of¬ ficials and legislature. The alliance will have four congressmen. There was excitement, and no disturbances reported anywhere. TENNESSEE. Knoxville, Tenn., November weather throughout this section was clear and cool. Tbe vote in all the towns and cities was larger than years. The state is solidly democratic. At Chattanooga, hundreds of negroes were prevented from voting in an unusu¬ al way. There was a circus there week, and the county democratic mittee made arrangements with the cir¬ icates cus manager to accept registration certif¬ for admission. The swarmed into the circus tent, and certificates were afterwards redeemed by the democratic committee aud destroyed. VIRGINIA. Richmond, November 8.--Atthe elec¬ tion in this state today the voting -was for presidential electors and ten con¬ gressmen. The weather was fair and warm and a large vote was polled throughout the state. The election was free from disturbance, although several United States marshals were arrested for obstructing voting. WISCONSIN. Madison, November 8.—The voting to-day in the state was for presidential electors, ten congressmen, governor and other stale officers and a legislature which will elect a United States senator to the place of Philetus Sawyer, repub¬ lican. WYOMING. Loraine, November 8.—Wyoming voted to-day for presidential electors, one congressman, a governor, judges of the supreme court and legislature, which will name a successor to the United States Senate Francis E. Warren, re¬ publican. SOUTH DAKOTA. Yankton. S. D., November 8.—South Dakota voted for presidential electors, governor aud other state officers and leg¬ islature. Galveston, Tex., November 8.—The race for governor between Hogg and Clark is close. Both are democrats, and the official returns may be required to decide the result. The weather was bad throughout the state, and the vote will probably not exceed that of 1888, when Cleveland’s plurality was 160,000.

The apprehension of the naval officers is caused by the an¬ nouncement in the press that the naval bombardment of Fort Sumter ia to form a part of the programme. If any such intention has taken shape in the official programme the navy department would have promptly countermanded the orders of the naval vessels, for Commodore Ramsey Bays that he would not for a moment tolerate the idea that a vessel of the United Statea navy should participate in the attack, •ven though it were a sham attack on the national nag.

Dunn & Co.s’ weekly review of trade says: Even in the last week before the presidential election business contin¬ ued very active; indeed, the volume is far beyond auy nport for a similar pe¬ riod, yet the coming election has plainly diminished business in two ways. Mul¬ titudes have been diverted from trade to political activity, and more have chosen to | postpone uncertainty transactions has been removed. until the The political fact . ! that even under theso circumstances trade has been enormous shows how pow- eiful is this impetus toward activity and expansion. The people arc clearly buy- 1 ing more goods than ever, and in some I inctmees the manufacturers are realiz¬ ing a slight advance in prices. Money j s closer at some western points, but no- where is a stringency seen, and there is no apprehension as to the immediate fut¬ ure. The sales of cotton have amounted to more (han i ? o00,000 bales, and prices ^ having advanced an for southern ac- ; counts, appears to indicate a greater de- crease in the yield, and receipts are again comparatively small. Speculation is not very active, except in cotton, At Philadelphia iron has an advancing tendency. Trade is healthy and buoyant at Baltimore, though open weather re¬ tards some branches and will lesson the oyster packing now in lull blast. Pitts¬ burg notes activity in iron, especially in finished products, and fair trade in glass.

A Startling Decision by the U. S. Attorney General. A Washington dispatch says: Acting made Attorney General Aldrich, on Thursday, an important statement with ref¬ erence to the authority of United States deputy marshals to supervise the elec¬ tions in which he announces that all per¬ sons whoever attempts to interfere with these officers bring themselves within the scope of the criminal statutes of the United States, regardless of whether or not they act under any state or munic¬ ipal statute. He says that in view of these statutes it is not thought that any person or com¬ bination of persons will seek in any way to interfere with the marshals in the dis¬ charge of their duties, but that any such interference will be rigorously prose¬ cuted. The statement begins by saying that the attention oi the department alleged of justice has been called to certain instruc¬ tions to police and state officials in Ala¬ bama, Arkansas and New York, with refer¬ ence to their conduct towards tbe deputy marshals at the polls. It declares that the marshals are there as peace officers and that their instruc¬ tions are not to allow discrimination for or against any party, but to secure an ‘‘honest ballot and a fair count.” It denies the doctrine of the suprem¬ acy of states over the United States in this matter of elections, and says that the impression that the federal govern¬ ment “la a foreign power” should be ob¬ literated. He says that the statement that section 2021 is the only section authorizing the appointment of deputy marshals, and therefore that such appointments can be made only in cities of twenty thousand inhabitants or upwaad is not the view entertained by the attorney general held or hlm»6lf, nor has such a view been by any preceding attorney general. wheth¬ With reference to the question right be er deputy marshals have the to within the guard rail of polling places, it is said, has been answered in the attor¬ ney general’s circular of October 31st, last and that the statutes are so cleur an I explicit that no room is seen for discus sion The statement concludes: “The laws must be enforced. The mars’na s ara warned under penalties of law of citizen*, agaust interfering with the rights and at the same time they will guard aud protect such rights at whatever cost.” Instructions in accordance with views will be sent to United State* mar¬ shals in all parts of the country.
