The Election—Some Figures.
The Presidential election is remark
able in the fact that President Roose
velt will have a larger majority of the
popular vote than any candidate of
modern times. It it estimated that it
will reach two millions- Bnt he will
also probably have a larger majority of
the Electoral vote than any candidate
bad in fifty yean past Without Man -
land the Electoral vote stands 385 fcr
Roosevelt and 188 for Parker, making
802 majority. Pierce over Scott in 1852
had 212 and Grant over Greeley in
1872 had 206. But neither of those
cases was as fair a test of personal or
party strength as that in the late
election.
Heretofore on some occasions in our
political history one Presidential can
didate had a majority of the popular
vote and another bad a majority of the
Electors. This may happen again and
necessarily make trouble from the pecu
liar provisions of the National Consti
tution on the mode of choosing our
Presidents. But before such trouble
nay arise it is probable the Constitu
tion will be changed so as to make the
Presidents elected-by the popular vote,
pare and simple.
POLITICAL.
One of the results of the late election
la a movement in favor of changing the
method of electing a President and Vice
President Railroads and wires have
made It possible for every voter in the
Nation to be promptly informed about
everything and everybody, and there ia
no good reason why the popular vote
should not control the matter, without
regard to state lines; and that would do
away with the cumbrous ballot and
mixed results. At this writing it looks
as though the electoral vote of Mary
land would be divided this year. In '96
Bryan had one electoral vote in Ken
tacky, in 1880 the vote of California
wassplit. In 1820 one elector chosen
to vote for Monroe refused to do so and
thereby deprived the latter of a unani
mous election. In 1796 it was claimed
that three men elected in the interest
of Jefferson voted for Adams and there
by secured his election. There are at
present probably five million men in
this country eligible to the Presidency,
any of whom can be chosen by the
elector* "elected" last Tuesday with
out violating the letter of the law.
"You did it," is what Gov-Klect Hig
gins wired to President Roosevelt; and
there is no doubt but that the popular
endorsement of the President's admin
istration helped to pull through some
of the local tickets; but besides this it
must be recognized that many, perhaps
• majority, of the Democrats, had no
oonfidence in their party, this year, and
the returns show that some of them
did not go to the polls.
The official majority of Roosevelt
over.Parker in Butler county '• 3413,
•nd the unofficial in the state 494,712
The only Democratic districts'in the
eounty, now, are Summit Lancaster,
Jackson east, Clearfield and Har
mony. The only Democratic coun
ties in the state, now, are Coluuibia,
Falton, Greene, Monroe and Pike,
none of which have large populations.
The unofficial figures for Clarion coun
ty, the heretofore Democratic strong -
hold of this section are Roosevelt, 2740,
Parker 5560.
For but the second time in its history
Clarion Co. weot Republican, this year.
The other time was in 1875. That was
to the zenith ot the development of the
petroleum resources in the county
There was only a county ticket to elect
and more than half of the successful
candidates were Republicans. The
Democratic tidal wave of 1876 swept
the county back into the Democratic
ranks and in l(rfo the be«ira to M<-Kean
eounty had set !n that carried the Re
publican votes away. Siuce then
Clarion has been regarded as hopeless
nntil the present victory shows that
good may come out of the most unlike
ly places.
THE bronze statue of Frederick the
Great, presented to this Nation by the
present Emperor William, has been
H mounted on the grounds of the new
War College in Washington, and will
be unveiled with appropriate ceremo
nies, next Saturday.
THE Atlantic coast line from Florida
to Maine was visited by a tremendous
storm, last Bnnday, the same travelling
north and northeast.
Ali the telegraph and telephone sys
tems of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New
York and Boston were interfered with,
and between Philadelphia and New
York all the wires were down.
Though the storm came from tbe
south it brought snow, a foot of which
fell at York, Pa.
Some twenty passenger steamers on
tbe Atlantic are suppoasd to hays been
caught In the path of the gale, and bad
aews Is expected Tbe railroads and
nntil also suffered.

PROPER WAY TO WALK.
I Physical Instructor Glvri Advice
on the Subject.
The way to wnlk straight is not to
thiuk of tlie shoulders nt nil. says a
physical instructor. Hani; your arms
loosely at your sides anil hold your
self erect by moderate tension of the
hack and abdominal muscles and the
muscles of the neck. Then your shoul
ders will have to hang right.
| Don't "throw out" your chest. The
chest that is inliated properly by deep
breathing is bound to 1M? thrown out,
and thrown out not like that of a
stuffed figure, but naturally, because '
it can't help it.
Don't walk with a stiff neck. Hold
your head erect the way an animal
does. Watch a deer. Its neck Is al
ways In motion, yet it is always held
beautifully. Your head poised on a
sti(lly held neck Is no good for either
balancing or looking around you. l'ols
ed confidently on (strong but pliant
neck muscles, it becomes what a head |
should be.
Many classes of men who do much
walking, such as Indians, guides and
trappers, walk with their bodies in
clined forward a little bit. Hut they
don't round their shoulders or stoop
their heads. They incline forward
from the hips. This throws their
weight a little ahead and gives the leg
muscles the chance to exert all their
power in the liest directions. But the
upper body Is never bent by these men.
It simply is held forward from the
hips at a very slight, barely percepti
ble. angle.
Even If correct poise In walking had
nothing to do with other forms of
athletics It would be Invaluable In It
self. The man who walks right Is go
ing to keep his organs -heart, kidneys,
Uver aud lungs In splendid form, ltut,
besides all thin, It helps wonderfully
In nil outdoor sports.
PAPUAN CANNIBALS.
The? Hoal Murder and Tunt* Human
Dluotl to Attnln Muuhootl.
The cannibal Instinct of the I'upuuii
of New Guinea Is not hard to explain.
In all the 313,000 square mile# of New
Uulnoa there Is not a tribe which does
not regard murder as a knightly ac- j
complWhmwtkt. Until a man has taken
a human life and has sipped human
blood he Is an object of ridicule, lie is
not permitted to tattoo himself, and
with a skin thus unadorned he Is abun
uod by I'apuan society.
Immediate!)' after killing some one,
however, the murderer must uuderga
ylx days of "purification," which are
marked by various uncanny rites, lie
first washes himself and his weapon
pud seats himself upou a stage In the
tight of the whole town, but neverthe
less unnoticed by all. During this time
he must cat nothing except ronstcil ba
nanas, ttic pulp of which he bites out
and the rent he throws away. On the
third day he has so far purified him
self that his friends entertain him at ni
feast, and on the fourth day he decks
himself with all the ornaments of his
home and parades up und down the vil
lage. After being thoroughly admired
lie walks down to a river, aud, stand
ing with feet wide apart, he lets all the
boys who want to become great man
swim through his legs. On the next j
dn\ at down he Jumps from l>«d and
yells out of the window nt the top of
Ills liuif.*. Ills shout is supp ist> I t'i
ware away the ghost of his victim. On
the following day he returns to his
wife, who lias spurned him up to this
time, and in once more Installed us the
respected lord of his household. —New
York Tribune.
Nan!«l** In tlar Wilier,
Ail reptiles swim. Almost all snakes
move through the water with as much
ease aud rapidity as on laud. Itnttle
snakes, for example, are much glveu
to swimming In placid water If It In
uot too cold. In the everglade lakes of
Florida they may bo often seen. It Is
well to know that to attack from a
boat n poisonous sunkc In the water Is
a much more dnugerous proceeding
than to nttnek the snake on land. The
reason Is (hat the reptile will Immedi
ately make for the liont, since It must
jjave a solid base from which to strike.

A Wr«l«tln« Warning.
The Breton peasant does not !>elleve
In any such new fangletf doctrine as
that of the equality of the sexes, und
he makes that clear when he takes un
to himself a wife. Then, according tij
sncicnt custom, directly the fatal knot
Is tied the bridegroom gives the bride
a smart box on the ear, saying, "This
la how It feels when you displease me."
After this ungullnnt proceeding he
draws her tcuderly toward him and
kisses her, sayluy, "And this la how it

, the Exposition in worth a thousand col
lege lectures." The cpitortunity of u
life time is afforded in which to acquire,
bv a few day's sojourn at tbo Fair, an
education which could not otherwise be
tocetveil. The World's Fair Grounds
cover over 1200 acres, being more than
1 twice as large as those of the World's
Columbian Exposition at Chicago.
1 Only a few nays left in which to take
advantage of this great opportunity.
Every day from now until the close of
the Fair is a "special" day. The Wa
bush is selling daily excursion tickets
