Election dav w marked by quietness and order in St. Helens. Considerable cood natnred joking took plaoe between members of the contending parties, but all was jovial. Some betting was indulged in but tbe wagers were generally small and of a local nature. Tbe vote was tbe largest ever polled in this precinct, the number reaching 414. Many from other precincts, particularly from Auburn, Sherman and Deer Is land, voted here. A verv'larce ner- cenlane of the foreign vote polled in this precinct were populists, and a desporate atteaept was made by tbem to carry the nrecinct. In the evenlntt a crowd of anxious waiters were on the street and about tbe hotels to re ceive special returns by wire. Tbe men were mostly republicans. How ever, there were a few populists in the crowd who did not seem to realise bow badly tbey had been snowed under until the returne began to come in. "Scappoose preoinot, 60 majority for MoKinley," ticked tbe telegraph, and Dooulist countenances changed. In a moment Deer Islsnd reported 35 for McKinley, and their lacee presented a purple hue ; but hardly bad' the bulle tins been posted, than "Sherman 23 and Clatskanie 80," rang out from the telegraph office. Lipe that had been open ail day for Bryan were mum as ao oyster, but hope wae not yet given up; Marshland; yee Marshland pre oincl wss looked to to perform popu list miracles. "Marshland 9 majority for McKinley," came over the wire. Lips dropped. But the hopeful never despair, and Nehalem was to come, but when it did come to the tune of 32 republican majority all hope van ished and tbe "reformers" were blue beyond description. The populists, however, took thlnge good nalured and tried to exouse their defeat in many ways. Each succeeding report increased the republican majorities, and as often tbe increased shouts of those watching the bulletins1, was hoard. When New York reported tbree hundred thousand for McKinley hilarity ran high but was no compari son to the demonstration which fol lowed the reports from Tennessee and Kentucky. About 12 o'olook most of tbe crowd were satisfied with tbe re- ' -X. HELBNBsoHOOii notes. on account ol her mother's illness.

Alexia 8t. Martin was st young man In the servioe of the American Fur company at what ia now Mack inaw, Mioh. In the year 1823, when 18 yean of age, he waa accidentally hot, receiving the whole charge of a musket in hla left aide, which frao- tured two ribs, lacerated tbe lungs "(t entered tne etomacb. Dr. Wil ira Beaumont, the urgeon in arge, restored him In a year to t,uod health, with all hia former strength and spirit But the open ing in hi body waa never closed. From 1825 to 18S8 Dr. Beaumont be gan a aerie, of experiments on the stomach of St Martin, studying ita operations, secretions, etc., his pa tient during all these years present ing the remarkable spectacle of a man in good health, good appetite and good spirits, with an aperture opening into his stomach through which the whole action of the organ might be observed. The doctor thus discovered thepresenoe of the gas- trio Juice In tne human subject and demonstrated beyond a doubt its chemical properties and digestive powers. He made other interesting discov eries. For instance, that tbe color of the membrane of the stomach ia pale pink : that ita appearance is vel vetlike, and that the stimulus of food causes the gastric follicles to enter into activity and to pour out the add gastric juice. The doctor would poke food into the stomach and draw it out and examine it at different stages of digestion. One day he would watch the action of stimulants, another day the action of sedatives. He tried opium and aloohoL He experimented with raw meat, boiled meat, broiled meat, baked meat, roast meat and fried meat He found that salted pork, when raw or broiled, was digested in from 8 to 8 hours. The same article fried took 4 hours, while fresh pork, fat and lean, roasted, required &i hours. On the other band, boiled fresh beef, with a little salt was di gested in H hours, while old salted beef required 4 hours when dressed in the same manner. Fish digested quicker than meat; boiled milk quicker than unboiled milk. In spite of his wound. In spite of the indignities to which his stomach had been subjected, St Martin sur vived his doctor and lived to a good old age. New York World. A Kefiater For Narva DletwbajM. A large proportion of the ailments by which this generation are afflicted arise from nervous disturbance of one kind or another. Many of these complaints are of such a subtle na ture that the physician is often pus Bled in makine the diagnosis, and the "tronometer, or new register for the indication of the various degrees of trembling exhibited in different diseases, promises to be of great service to science. This instrument consists of a metal plate pierced with a number of holes of different sizes in a graduated scale, and a needle which the patient endeavors to put into tha holes, When he has succeeded in placing the needle in the hole, an electric contact is made and a bell rings. Al though this method of testing un steadiness of band appears simple, it is found reliable. The immoder ate use of coffee and stimulants pro duces tremblings which can be accu rately denoted by the appliance. One of the directions in which this invention may prove useful is in as certaining the degree of steadiness possessed by marksmen and others, in whom stability of nerve is an ab solute necessity. New York Tele gram. WatlTM ar tha Saa Blaa Coaat. The natives of the San Bias coast, part of the western coast of South America, have many peculiar cus toms. The Indian boy after his mar riage becomes the slave of his father-in-law and must submit in all things to his will until emancipated by bis own daughter's marriage, when he sets up his own home and becomes thenceforth master of his son-in-law. The men are very jealous of then women, and in case of war or other grave danger their first step is to kill their wives and children. They be lieve dreams and insanity to be the work of evil spirits, and the dreamer upon telling his dream is killed. The insane are burned alive. They allow no foreigner to sleep in one of their villages. The total population of San Bias is supposed to be about 20, 000. Exchange.

A tall, snowy bearded man, with wide brimmed soft hat and the gen eral air of a westerner, was walking along Fourteenth street near Union square. He noticed a blind beggar's appeal for aid. The appeal was prom inently displayed on a card hang ing on the beggar's breast It stated that the appellant had lost his sight through a mine explosion in the west many years ago. The white bearded man stopped and addressed a remark to the blind beggar, whose face brightened at the first words and broke into a smile when the gentleman shook hands with him. Dropping a coin in the tin cup that clanked like a sheep bell at the liberal donation, the venerable pedestrian pursued his path. "That's Senator Stewart of Ne vada,' whispered one observer to an other, "and the blind beggar once worked in the same mine with bin Two summers ago they met in the same way in this neighborhood. The senator gave generous alms, and the blind beggar was cheered by the kind words that accompanied the gift" New York Herald. A Toad'e CamnlBg. A scientific journal tells this story of a toad's cunning: A brood of chickens was fed with moistened meal in saucers, and when the dough soured a little it attracted large num bers of flies. An observant toad had evidently noticed this, and every day toward evening he would make his appearance in the yard, hop to a saucer, climb in and roll over until he waa covered with meaL having done which he awaited develop ments. The flies, enticed by the smell, soon swarmed around the scheming batrachian, and whenever one passed within two inches or so of his nose his tongue darted out and the fly disappeared. The plan worked so well that the toad made a regular business of it Tha First Act ar a Tracadr. You are sitting alone.
