The ap- preaching election of County Superintend T ent of Schools here is creating a great deal ' of interest. The election occurs on Tuesday next. Politics are being brought into the fight, and as a consequence, the candidates for the place, unschooled in the tricks of the ward politician, are not confident, but are making a vigorous fight. For many years past the County Superintendent has been a Democrat, lor the reason, perhaps, that tbe Republicans were in the minority. This year, however, the Republicans have a ma jority of 17. Prof. Hugus, of Greensburg, who has held the office for six years, is a candidate, and is a Democrat. He is op , posed by Prof. TJlricb, of Latrobe, a Repub lican.

I Zakesville, May L About 100 miners, employed at Sealover's mines, about six miles from this city, by McKinney & Hug gins, have auit work, pending a decision bv one of their State officers of a question that has come up concerning the forming of rooms running from the corridors. The State Association, at its meeting, adopted a scale of prices for the turning of rooms running from single corridors with a narrow opening from the corridor to the room. Tbe method of mining pursued by this firm is different and permits of the room being opened from the corridor to its full width, doing away with this forming of the narrow entrance. The miners claim full scale for the forming of the rooms and the operators do not think they are entitled to it.

At this time it cannot be said whether or not any objections will be made against tbe young man. It really looks as though the new recommennatiou will de velop an active movement by which the fight will be continued, as those who op posed Captain W. .

The life of the special postal delivery mes senger is not one of roses. He gets 8 cents for each special delivery letter he delivers, but there is not a great deal of money in it. A typical messenger rode out nn a Fifth avenue car about 12 o'clock last night. He was bewailing his hard luck. He said: "I've had two soaks to-night. Don't know what a soak is? Well, a soak is when you have to carry a letter out to Troy Hill, where I was to-night, and then another one to Ellsworth avenue, where I am going now. It'll cost me more for car fare than I'll make on these two trips. A 'pudden' is a letter addressed to a house close to the office, that you can deliver in a few minutes. The little fellers get the 'puddens,' nnd us big fellers (he was about 16 years old) get all the soaks. Some times we get a car ticket or monc from the people we deliver letters to at night, and one man always gives us a dollar. "Do we make much? Naw. Last month I drew $19 50, and it cost me $6 for car fare. People think we have a snap, because we only work eight hours, but if a fellow gets three or four soaks, and has to walk because he-hasn't got car fare, he's just dead when he eets through." Here the boy swung off the car, and the gloom on his face made the night still darker. COTnrrEBFETTEB BEISBLN OK TBIAL. Asent O'Dtrjer Testifies to Burins; Spurious Coin Front Him.

Unless the other parties give them what they want politically they will strike out for them selves. JKPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Erie, May 1. The farmers of Erie county massed their local alliance to-day at Union City and organiz-d under the name of "The Farmers' Party." The meet ing comprised over 200 of the leading farmers of the county. Hon. A. L. Tilden, a leading Democrat of LeBouff, was chosen President, and J. H. Peiffer, of Mill Village, another Democrat, was elected secretary. It was stated at the ontstart that, in refutation of reports, no politician, or set of politicians, or any political party had any hand in the move ment. A set of resolutions was adopted de manding REPRESENTATION AMO NO lATV-MAKERS the taxation of all property, whether real, personal or corporate; the election of United States Senators bv direct vote of the people, nnd condemning secret sessions of the United States Senate; that the Government issue all money; the restriction of foreigu emigration so as to n fiord protection to American labor; to elect to legislative bodies only such men as were in sympathy with the farmers, and equal privileges to all. Tbe resolutions were adopted. The farmers declared against the paying of tax on the mortgaged parts of farms. J. A.

Peiffer, of Mill Village, Secretary. The county committee was not selected. The sentiment of tbe convention was against embarking as a separate parly, but their mission seemed to be to compel the old political parties to heed the demands of the tnrmers for consideration in the legislative bodies. The Crawford county people will meet to-morrow, and on the 9th a joint con vention will be held to agree upon a candi date for Congress. The farmers were so well aware that their movements were accredited to politicians tbat they declared time nnd azain that they were free and untrammelled.

PHQTOQRAPffmQ THE CLOUDS. nstnntnneous Process for Taking Two Views Lightning on Pnper. A camera is used at Kew and other ob servatories for taking instantaneous pictures of clouds from different points of view at the same moment. In practice two cameras are used, one being distant half a mile from the other. An observer is stationed at each, and the two men are in telephonic commu nication with one another. But the simul taneous exposure of the two cameras is of course under the control of one hand, and this is brought about by an instantaneous shatter npon each lens worked by an electro magnet, both beins on the same circuit. The photographs of clouds so obtained can be accurately measured, and their height above the earth can be determined.

In two or three days after the implantation of the vims there is a slight itching near the point of vaccination, and, on examining this with a magnifying glass, small vesicles can be detected. About tbe fourth day some constitutional symptoms may be expected a slight fever, some head ache, a little diarrhoja, and, if the nervous system is in an irritated condition, convul sions not uncommonly make their appear ance. The vesicle now increases in size, and if it is punctured, there will exude a thin, serous-like fluid. The constitutional symptoms nowbeginto diminish, but tbe local disturbances in crease. The arm becomes not and painful, and the glands in the axilla (armpit) are sore. The day week following the vaccina tion tiie vesicles have attained to tneir iuii size, and the areola; (red circles) begin to nppear. If now the vesicle be opened, a thick, clear fluid, slightly tenacious, will ooze out. This is the vaccine lymph. On the eighth day alter vaccination, the vesicles begin to retrograde toward the pustular stage. The pustules now begin to dry up, and the inflammation and swelling ot the arm gradually diminish. In some instances, at about the tenth day, there is a slight fever, wbich corresponds to the secondary fever of smallpox. At about the twenty-first day the crust may be expected to fall off, leaving a reddish snot, which, after some little tune, will have the characteristic appearance of the vaccine scars. It sometimes happens that though there may have been a good vesicle, still there is no scar. Scarification gives a much better scar than any other method of vacci nation. Tbe constitutional disturbance is the mos important part of the disease, and no vaccination can be considered perfect where it is wanting. In one instance, at least, it has been known to produce delirium. STBEET CAB COUBTEST. A Hord-Working Old Lady, a Belle and a piclflafa Man Furnish Amusement. New York Sun.

A lady came gliding down the aisles in all the freshness and daintiness of a fault less toilet, and at once the man folded bis paper and relinquished his place, with up litten bat and courteous salutation. The lady thanked him, and then, turning to the tired woman whose gray hair had promptly appealed to her consideration, said, with sweet graciousness: "Please take the seat; you have been standing longer than I." "I don't want it,"said the other, sullenly. "But please take it," urged the lady, with a still more gracious smile. "Beally, I don't mind standing at all." "No," said the woman, a little mollified by the smile. "I won't take it just to spite him. He meant that seat for a lady, and he didn't offer it to me, and I wen't sit in t," and so she rode one stolidly clinging to the strap. And the lady said, after it was all over, "Well, Idon't'blame her any. I like her pride, but it was a little embar rassing for me." EUGENE HALE AS COLONEL How Ho Quelled Blots Before He Was of Age From Slim lo Fal. Boston Globe. Few people who see Millionaire Senator Engene Hale, of Maine, as he passes through Boston would think be was once a slim boy with a great fondness for military life. When Israel Washburn, Jr., was elected Governor of Maine in 1860, he ap pointed "little Gene" to a place on his staff, giving him the rank of colonel. Armed with this title, the future Senator went from town to town in citizens clothes quelling draft riots and doing great service lor his party. It is said that be was a colonel before he was 21 years of age. It is quite sure he was very slim, very pale and quite beardless. Yet tbe title, coupled with a mythical revolver said to be concealed in his hip pocket, awed many a turbulent crowd into submission. Colonel Hale was as poor in purse then as he was in flesh. But a few years in Con gress, a happy marriage to the daughter of Zach Chandler, and general good luck, have made him one of the roundest and richest men in New England.

One night his father asked him how he stood in his class. "Only one from the end, and I'll soon beat him," was the reply. "And how many are there in the class?" "Twenty-six." "So you have beaten 24 of them. You are a good boy, and if you will beat the other I'll cet you a new watch." "You are wrong there. I must beat the other 24, for I am next to the foot of the class." And the father wept for joy at the precocity of his offspring. UNLIKE JONAH AND THE WHALE, This Fellow Was Swallowed by nn Alligator, and Never Told About It. I'alltk.a Herald. Tim Smith, a colored laborer, working on W. P. Fuller's orange grove at Edgewater, comes to Palatka nearly everyday in a row boat. For several weeks Tim noticed a par ticularly largealligator, whose back was filled with barnacles and long green moss. The al ligator was never known to demonstrate any fear, and would not get out of Smith's way under any consideration, allowing him to row rather close toward him. Last Thurs day, when Smith started for town, he put a Winchester rifle in his boat for the ex press purpose of giving bis'gatorship a load of cold lead. Bowing to within easy range, Smith fired five shots at the saurian, all of which seemed to take effect, for the alligator made a terrible flutter in the water, and turned over on its back.

"It is amusiug to note tbe extreme polite ness of some men in the horse cars," said an observer. "I was riding uptown the other day. The car was crowded. Some ladies were standiug. Alter going a number of blocks, one man got up, toncbed his hat and asked n lady to take his seat. She demurred. "'Oh! do take my seat,' he said, which she did, and he stepped off the car with the air of one who had done a very courteous and gentlemanly thine in giving up the seat that he had occupied all the way uptown, and which he only gave np because, having arrived at the end of his journey, he could not take it with him.

Samuel Davis, of Brooklyn, is trying hard to find out whether he is married or not. Five years ago he and a yonng lady were "dared" to marry and accepted the challenge. The courts are now abont to to decide as to the legality of the ceremony. ISrECIAI. TZLEOBAM TO THB DISPATCH. New Yobk, May 1. Samuel Davis, a young clerk for a Westside wholesale dry- goods house, will appear in the Brooklyn City Conrt next Monday to hear Chief Jus tice Clement decide whether or not he is a married man. Five years ago last Febru- arv Davis, while out of a job, amused him self by going to public dances in Williams burg, where he was then living. He became acquainted with Anna C. Plunkett, of 33 Marcy avenue, Brooklyn, at one of these dances, took her to a Bockaway picnic, and with a friend escorted her and ber sister to a ball early in March. DARED TO MAKBT. During a pause in the dancing someone in the party dared everyone else to go and get married. Anna Plunkett and Davis ac cepted the "dare." They went to the par sonage of the Methodist Protestant Church and were married by the Bev. J. J. White. The other Miss Plunkett would not marry Davis' friend. All four thought the ceremony a big joke. They went back and danced out the ball, and the young men left the young women at the door of their home. Davis took Miss Plunkett to several other dances, and at the end of the Williamsburg season came to New York to live. Miss Plunkett remained as Miss Plunkett in Brooklyn. Davis never lived with her. About a year ago Davis' friends who knew of his esca pade, feared he was about to marry a New York lady, to whom be had become very at tentive, and that his marriage in fun might cause him some trouble. They explained the predicament to a lawyer. IN A PREDICAMENT. "Miss Plunkett's lawver was H. B. Davis, of 180 Grand street, Brooklyn," said Mr. H. B. Kinghorn, of 234 Boadway, Samuel Davis' present counsel, to-day. "He made a proposition to Davis to settle for $250. Samuel Davis said he had no monev, and H. B. Davis had him arrested for abandon ing his alleged wife, Miss Plunkett. The case was brought before Justice Walsh, in Brooklyn, who, in view of the fact that Miss Plunkett was earning some $10 a week and not liable therefore to become a charge on tbe county, released him. "Last April Davis came to me with his troubles. I brought an action in equity to have the marriage ceremony declared null and void. The action ii on a special term calendar for next Monday." EVEN TOOK IN QUAY. Very Clever Scheme Worked by a Crook on n Hallway Train. At Cleveland they put two cars filled with Polish immigrants on the rear of our train, as they had through some accident been be lated, and we sped away for Toledo, says a writer on the New York Sun. At about 0 o'clock at night a man came into our car, in which Senator Quay had a berth, and. said: "Ladies and gentlemen, a child has been born in one of the immigrant cars. It's a boy. Although we are in Ohio, I'm a Pennsylvanlan myself, and as Senator Quay is also on the train, it is proposed to name that boy Quay Laugkowski. It has been proposed that we all chip in and raise a purse for the boy " We chipped. Quay saw our whole pile nnd raised it by $5, saying that he should be proud of the honor, and the man passed into the next car. An hour later we learned tbat no child had been born and that the fellow had raised $75 and dropped off at some station. THE TELEGRAPHER'S MOTIONS. Pollock's Band Flew nt the Koto of Nine teen Impulses per Second. New Yortt Snn.l An analysis of the phenominal work done by Pollock, the winner of the recent fast sending telegraph tournament, show3 that the 260 words transmitted in five minutes call for 1,223 letters and 11 punctuations, or say 1,234 letters in all. To make these let 2,834 impulses were required. This puts over nine impulses into each second, and as each impulse calls for a down and up mo tion of tbe key, the hand and fingers of the operator had to make nearly 10 movements per second for 300 consecutive seconds.
