Up to this writing Mr. Ui-edbu exactly 49 votes to Mr. Morton' G4andMr. McKinley's 104, out of 345 delegates. This shows a fullirj oil in the leading candidate bo had a clear majority a few daji back. Tho nity election takes jilao next Monday. Good men have been placed in the field for the re spective positions to be filled. Tie most important question that is to bo voted upon, is whether thecitr will bond itself for if 50,000 to pur chaso or erect water and light plants for it own use. We believe tho taxpayers will vote the propo. sition down. This is a poor tin to ko into debt not only fur to individual but a city. London leads tho list of cities in its number of - women who m either domestics or skilled workers. New York is next. The working women over 15 average about 300, 000 in New York city, as against 75,000 a quarter of a century ago. 1 here are probably about COO.Oll' women of a working ngeintc'i like New York, with its 2,000,000.. and this shows that half of lira aro obliged to toil. Boston Transcript: There ii a giant ten and a halt feet high ia the country above Canton in Chins, and an American showman has lately been trying in vain to induce him to travel" The big fellow ii ashamed of himself for being so unduly long, and does not care to become an exhibit. A seven-foot giant is considered a good deal of s fellow, and they have been few and hard to find on this mundane sphere. The wife of ex-Senator Piatt few days ago received from Florida the entire crop of oranges from her plantation. Mrs. 1'latt's orange grovo has for several years been a source of satisfaction to tho fam ily. It has also been a means of profit to Mrs. Piatt's own pocket book. Mr. Piatt has been proud of his wife's financiering. About six years ago the Platts were trav eling in Florida, when Mrs Piatt's tancy was captured by a large plantation which was for sale. Several seasons money was ruado on tho investment, but this year tlie orange crop was a total failure, and it' cost Mrs. Piatt something like $500 to raise half a dozen pieces of fruit, tho same being te entiro crop. Some one has BUtreested that the idea now under consideration at Washington, to utilize the mail system as a meanB of circulating the weather uroenostications will) if adopted, strike another blow at loiter writing. It is proposed w nave the weather bureau tolegrapa its bulletins to the post office twice a day so they may insert in tlie stamp that is marked on the bacs of every envelope. By this device a man can tell what tho wetther was in the town wLcre tho letter was mailed and what the weather bureau guessed it would bo for the 24 hours following. Many letter writers now fill several lines of note paper with a discriptun oi the weather that they are enjoying. Not frequently this prove to be the only information of interest, and as the postofliee official be lieve that if this dapartment fur- nishea tins news on the envelope it would in some cneis. make an f lu'lnsure superfluous.
