From the above and reports from
other districts there is no doubt of the

and Hilliard a3 County Surveyor. Mr.
Snyder's majority is estimated at 600.
The Republican majority on the State
ticket, for Niles and Livsey may be
from 200 to 300.
THE STATE.
Both parties are claiming the State,
but from all the news we have to this
morning we think the Republicans have
carried Pennsylvania.
Massachusetts has gone Republican,
this beating Gen. Butler for Governor.
New York and New Jersey have
probably gone for the Democrats.
Searight is probably defeated for
Jndge in the Fayette county district.
There was no blood shed in Virginia
as was feaied would be.
Too Particular.
At the election yesterday it seemed
to be the order to the Democrats to chal
lenge the right to vote of all Republi
cans possible. Old citizens who have
lived and voted here for fifty years
were challenged to show tax receipts,
or payment of taxes, and their papers,
etc. Now the object of the law is to
prevent fraudulent voting, and not to
prevent well known citizens from vot
ing. Challenging is therefore being
carried to an extreme and the useless
practice should cease among all par
ties. While it is right that all comply
with the law yet mere technicalities
should not bo used to prevent or hinder
honest voters. The challenging busi.
ness could be eliminated without wrong
or injustice to any party.
A Good Soldier Gone.
We learn that Col. Thomas F. Gal
lagher died at his home at New Alex
andria, Westmoreland County, Pa., on
Sunday last. This news will be receiv
ed with sorrow by all of his old regi
ment yet surviving in this county.
Col. Gallagher commanded the 11th Pa.
Regiment of Reserves, in which were
Companies C. and D. from this county.
He was with bi» regiment until the
battle of South Mountain, where he
was wounded. Ho was not only a
brave and good officer but a good man
personally, bearing a good name
through all the relations of life. Few
officers in the late war could have
borne a higher Christian character
than did Col. Gallagher. We regret to
learn of his death.
REUBEN MCELVAIK will lecture in
Frwporton Monday night next, 12tb
inst., and in Sunburj on Tuesday night
Aext, 13th inst.
A Communication.
EDS. CITIZEN:—The article that ap
peared in last week's Eagle headed
"Wide Awake," was nothing but lies
from beginning to end. In the first
plbee there were no school boys engag
ed in it, and Sanford was not engaged
through the "Iledpath" Lyceum !
Bureau, of Boston, but was engaged ;
through the Central Lecture Agency at
Harrisburg.
Col. Sanford thought right when he
thought that he was engaged by the i
Regular Lecture Course of the season,
for there was no other association in
the field at that time Where wastbe
other association, do you ask.' The
leading member had gone to Llah,
where be should have been long ago.
The rest discouraged by his disappear
ance broke up the association, so leav
ing the "Wide Awakes" the only reg
ular association in the field
Acrain, there were only two of the
"Wide Awakes" in the house at all
during the oveuing and they heard ull .
of the lecture; another lie nailed.
About the Colonel being vexed at j
them for engaging him when they had
no funds to pa)' him, they had the
money there with them ready and
willing to pay him every cent and did
pay him. The only thing that
be presented to theni was the
warning that the other association
was working against them. Again,
they want none of your sympathy, they
are wide awake to the fact that your
fallen chief needs all the sympathy you
can spare. Send it to is alt Lake City,
Utah, in care of the Mormon High
Priest , and he will be sure to get. If
you don't wish to send all of it then
give some to Right Honorable Burn
sides. More anon,
"WIDE AWAKE."
Rebellion in a Nunnery.
CLEVELAND, Oct. 31.—St Joseph's
Hospital and Nunnery is on Monroe
street. Years ago Bishop Rappe, who
formerly had charge of this diocese,
gave the Sisters of St. Joseph a deed
of the property. Since Bishop trilmour
has been in charge of the diocese the
relations between him and the Sisters
have not been of a very pleasant char
acter. It was one of the established
rules of the convent that the Sisters
select their own Mother Superior every
three years. .Some time ago the Bishop
deposed Sister St James and took
matters into his own hands by appoint
ing Sister St. Alexis as Mother Super
ior of the institution, which he had no
right to do, the Sisters having always
before held undisputed the power of
choosing their Mother Superior. This
action very nearly resulted in a mutiny
of the Sisters, but worse was to follow.
Bishop Gilmour made new rules for
their government, both in the nunnery
and at the hospital, which was also an
action unprecedented in the history of
the Sisterhood. Further than this, he
endeavored to force them to execute to
him a deed of their Monroe street
premises. This the Sisters refused to
do. The result was mutiny and re
bellion.
Within the past two days a rumor
has been circulated to the effect that a
number of the nuns had packed up their
few worldly effects, gathered together
as much of the property of the sister
hood as possible, and left for pa-ts un
known. One version of the story is
that they have gone into another dio
cese to start a new nunnery, while
another is that they have gone to
Europe, takiug with them a sufficient
amount of the nunnery property to sup
port them for some time. It is also
publicly asserted that the departing
nuns took with them securities and
bonds valued at SOO,OOO.
A FATAL YEAR.
Loss of Life in Notable Disasters
in 1883.
The astrologists who selected 1883
as a year for earthquakes, pestilence
and accidents seem to have made a hit*
During the ten months of the year con
siderably more than 155,000 lives have
been lost in notable disasters. By
simply following the big news of the

Parting Shots at Searight.
Waynesburo, November i.— I There
is more interest centered in the fi<rht for
judicial honors in the Fayette-Greene
district than iu the election of State
officers. The Republicans, knowing
they stand no chance, have almost
unanimously resolved to support James
Inghram, of Greene county, as against
Tom Searight, of Fayette. All the
papers of this county appeared yester
day in a last shot at Searight, and just
now the political pot is boiling furious
ly. It is likely from jwefvunt judication
that Searight will not have yotfjj
enought hepe to make them worth
counting. The Fayette Republicans,
almost to a man, will vote for Inghram
to defeat Searight. They know fajiu
and consider hiui unfit to occupy the
position he seeks. The late Captain
Nutt v&Giff within 180 votes of beating
him two yetu» for the offKe of
Prothonotary, and th<?
n'ow believe he will have great (Imtyuultv
iu carrying the county.
The Virginia Plan.
DANVILLE, VA , November 3.—ln a ;
couflict between a crowd of whites and
colored this evening, Walter Holland, ;
son of C. G. Hollaud, was shot in the
head and is supposed to be mortally
wounded. Thomas Seward was shot
through the body. Five negroes were j
killed and it is supposed many were |
wounded. The beginning of the con
flict was the beating by one of the citi
zens of a negro who abused another ne
gro for apologizing for apparent rude
ness, and who spoke roughly about a
citizen. Some of both colors interfered
and a pistol was knocked out of the
hands of one of the white men and ex
ploded. Just then a report reached an
assembly of white citizens in session
about political matters that a conflict
was going on in the street. They
came out in a body and both classes
formed in separate crowds. Some of
each crowd were armed. A number of
negroes approaching the white crowd
called out "shoot, d— you. We had
| as soon settle this thing now as anoth
ler time." Just then somebody in the
white crowd called out "Fire," and the
filing began. The negroes returned
the iire and ran off, some Gring as they
ran. All the stores were closed imme
diately, the alarm bell sounded and the
people came out with arms. The town
Sergeant came out soon after with one
militarv company and commanded the
people" in the name of the common
wealth to go home, and the streets were
soon cleared. The mounted police and
the town sergeant, in response to a
message from the Governor, offering
assistance if needed, telegraphed that
all was quiet and no further trouble
apprehended. No arrests are made as
yet. The political excitement has been
growing more and more intense during
the present canvass for members of the
Legislature.
POLITICAL EXCITEMENT.
HARRODSBUBO, YA., Noyember 4.
Great excitement was caused here by
the reception of the news of the riot at
Danville It is believed it will have a
decided effect in the valley counties on
Tuesday's election.
RICHMOND, YA., November 4-
An immense mass-meeting of citizens
of Richmond was held at the First
Regiment Armory this (Sunday) even
ing to express sentiments concerning
the riot at Danyille. A preamble set
ting forth that the conflict between the
races in Danville is the result of a con
spiracy to lorce the issue upon the white
people by the leaders of the coalition
movement was adopted.
A Mysterious AfTair.
London, Oct. 31.—About 8 o'clock
last eyening a terrible explosion occur
red near the Praed street undergrond
station on the Metropolitan Railway.
Passengers who were on the train at
the scene of the explosion say that there
was suddenly a loud report like that of
a cannon, thep a sudden darkness.
The train which was crowded, con
tained principally country visitors re
turning from the Fisheries Exhibition.
After leaving the station the train
traveled to the next station, Edgeware
Road, where the flr3t effort was made
to rescue the wounded-
The first impression was that an en
plosion of gas bad caused the disaster,
but later inquiries tend to show malico.
The general opinion of the railway of
ficials and of experts is that the disas
ter was caused by some explosive ma
terial which had been placed probably
in the rearmost carriage. It is believ
ed that fcbont forty persons were injur
ed, some of them daqgeroijsly.
Almost simultaneously with the
street affnir a violent explosion occur
red on the Underground Railway, be
tween Charing Cross and Westminster
stations. The windows of the signaling
stations in the tunnel were shattered,
and at Charing Cross the grass roof of
tne station partly collapsed.
Tbfl effects were like those of the
Praed street expigsiog. Carriage lamps,
windows, etc., were smashed. Al}
traffic was suspended for a while.
Though both explosions are matters of
the greatest mystery, they a?e geqeral
ly thought to have been of Feniai)
origin.
The Luther Anniversary,
There were services in the churches
of this place last Sunday commemora
tive of the Great Reformation. The
German Lutheran church bad an ex
cursion to Evans City, where joint
services, bPfliVPen a number of the con
gregations of that chur/jfi iq tips coun
ty, were hold.
Next Sunday, wo understand, the
services iu the churches will have refer
ence to tho anniversary of the birth of
Luther, Nov. 10, 1483, being the 400 th
year of that event.

heavy w! I raises the waves," added a city
physician, uho had a knowledge of the times
and it tendency to metaphor. "The midnight
'schooner' leaves behind it a wake of furred
tonguos, headaches, torpid livers, nausea, and
all that, and lays the foundation of Bright's
Disease."
This melancholy fact accounts in part for the
increasing sales of BENSON'S CAPCINE
POROUS PLASTER, which at once mitigates
these symptoms. Price 25 cents. Ask your
physician about it.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.
In a SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from
tlic necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, a larj,e proportion of metal is
needed only to ctiO'en and hold the engrav
ed portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
James IJosa' Patent Gold Watch Cases this
■WASTE is saved, and SOLIDITY and
STRENGTH increased by a einiple process,
at one-half tlio cost. A plate of EOLID
GOLD is solderevl on each side of a plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this the cases, backs,
centers, bezels, etc., are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. Tlio gold is thick
gnough to admit of all kinds of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
eases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use without removing the gold. This i$
the only case made under this process. Each
case is accompanied with a valid guarantee
signed hj the manufacturers warranting it to
wear 20 gears. 150,000 of these Cases
now carried in the United States and <
Canada. Largest and Oldest Factory. J
Established 1854. Ask your Jeweler. I

has no terrors for the household where
DA IT'S SOAP is used, no unpleasant and sickening odors to fill
your houses, no laborious rubbing on the wash-board, while the
washing can be done in one-half the time necessary by following the old
worn-out method.
MADAM —for it is to the ladies we desire to speak more especially
—you are the interested person in this matter; you it is that suffers the
ills arising from the wasn-tub and its heavy cares; you it is to whom
the perplexities and responsibilities of the household rightfully belong,
and you it is that should interest yourself in a trial of the qualities of this
soap, that has always proven itself to be a boon of salvation
TO SUFFERING HUMANITY.
We do not come to you with a plausible story calculated to have
you try it, simply for the amount of money such a sale would bring us ;
we do not come to you as irresponsible parties, who have no reputation
to suffer calumny, but we do present to you this brand of soap upon an
absolute guarantee and recommendation of a well-known industrial
establishment of Philadelphia, of sixteen years' existence. Do you sup
pose for a moment it would compensate us to make false statements to
you and ruin our well-earned reputation ? No, dear reader; what we
say about DAY'S SOAP is the truth, and it is sustained by the evidences
of thousands of housewives from all over the country, besides which we
stand ready to endorse it all with ready cash.

j way Injure the finest fabrics or the mo>l delicate complexions.
No soda, no washing crystals, no lyes are to be used, but
simply supply yourself for the next wash-day with a bar of DAY 4
SOAP, then carefully read the directions and follow them to tho
exact letter, and if you don't say pitch out that old wash-boiler,
for I am a wiser woman, you will be th' first person we have heard of
that has been disappointed.
jSST"Now remember —If you don't intend to follow the directions
do not try the soap at all, for unless you do this you will be disap
pointed, and then you will scold us and yourself as well.
The cost of one cike will convince you that it is the best and
cheapest soap offered you, wftile the smiles that will encircle your brow
will do justice to a golden sunset.
Ask your grocer for it. and do not allow him to put you off with
anything else for a substitute, for every dealer can obtain it, and should
he refuse you send direct to
