Electiom Day. 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

Fur company at what ia now Mack

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

possessed by marksmen and others,
in whom stability of nerve is an ab

The natives of the San Bias coast,

sets up his own home and becomes
thenceforth master of his son-in-law.

their wives and children. They be

A tall, snowy bearded man, with

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.

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
