E-'a 'Jack Ashton throuKta the provinces has taken off
PBK considerable adipose tissue, and, as his enthu-

" The Democrats will have but one candidate.
The District-Attorney contest settled that. (Mr.

Is only unoihci Instance of Mr. Cleveland's luck.
Up to the time tho District-Attorney nominations
were made the canvass was stale ami flat. At once
the Ores were lighted and burned fiercely. That
contest increased tho registration in Nmv York

knotted a rope by which they made their descent

MRS. HILTON'S STRAXGK DISAPPEAKANCE.
A mystery In n I.ltlle Maine Villugo That
Was Nrter Holted.
(Von A r.imj.n (Mr.) IliralJ.)
Near sixty years ago Providence located yonr
corresjiondent In l-at charming portion of tbe tonn
of Lincoln ille known as the Fletcher neighbor
hood. In childhood's days we thought It a lovely
spot. Some ninety or u hundred ycaiu Ago the
esrly Kettlrra of that locality were greatly excited
und disturbed o it tho mysterious and unai count
able disappearance of one of their number, a young
married lady, on whose fate the lapse of near u
century b.m shed uo light. At the time to which
we reler most of tbe farms where tho soil was
good had beeu entered for settlemrut, clearings
ad been made, inure or Ioj extensive, and rude
habitations railed Ihcreuu.wheiiamanby the name
of Hilton, with nls wife, settled on what was niter
wards known as the Cox farm, and still later ns
the Whltmore place, about three-fourths of a mile
from the Fletcuer pond. There were a few acres
of cleared land anu a small house on the place nt the
time when Hilton moved Into the neighbor
hood. One pleasant day, not long after Hilton's
settlemeut in (bat place, his wife visited at Mr.
Jonathan Fletcher's. Mrs. Fletcher descillwd her
as a wrll-dresjcd, fine appearing woman, with
whose appearance sne was much pleased, Mrs.
Hilton remained at Deacon Fletcher's till after tea,
but started for home, somu three-fourths of a mile
dlhtant, beforo sunset, but she never reached her
journey's end. Ucr husband declared that he had
not seen anything Jf her after she left home to
make the call ou Mrs. Fletcher. Careful search
revealed no traco of tbe missing woman, 'lucre
was, as It usual In such esses, suspicion of foul
play, whlca was never, however, substantiated by
any evidence worthy of consideration. '1 he people
were all agog, and tho search lor proofs became In
tensely exciting snd the field for gossip ami sur
mise was a fruitful one.
Search was from time to time renewed with In
creased vigilance, as suspicion of crime became
prevalent In the community; hut renewed ecurcii
afforded no light as to what had become of the lost
woman. We can have little conception how com
pletely Isolated tbe people of Maine were who
dwelt a few miles Inland a century ago. Tbe tele
graph, the railroad and their oltsprluir, the dally
paper, were among the unkuown factors of civil
ization, and what took place a hundred miles away
was less known than what now takes place on the
eastern continent. Hut It their world was vision
bound, everything '.hat transpired within their
limited range was magnified snd 'ntentltled, and
the feeling In tbe community wnero this mysterious
event occurred was uo doubt sa Intense aa what
we have seen take place lately lu the barren case in
the town of Dexter,
A a last resort to caln light npon the unsolved
roblem, a aelf-constltnted committee went to

this story, toe pond was nearctied with great dill

sayer's statement, a lad who lived with Deacon
Fletcher at the time, chanced to pass by the pond
ouo ulgut and saw, or thought he auw something
white rise out of the p'jnd. It might have been a
loon or something of that kind that he saw, but tho
leilnw was n sure It was tho ghost of the murdered
woman that he would scarcely go to the door after
dark, much less go near the pond In the night

WHEKE FINE GARNETS COME FROM.
Home ofthe Handsomest Gems In Tills Country
Found In New York State.
IFron Barprt Uaganint.
Tno finest garnots in tho world aro thoso found
near Gallup, New Mozlco, Fort Defiance, ArUona,
aud Helena, Montana. They are otten associated
with the oily green and olive green pcrldota called
"Job's tear" on the surface of ant-hills, where
thoy have been carried not only by the ants, but
also by the icorplons. They are there called rubles.
Although the garnets found In tho diamond mines
at the Capo of Good Hope (the B0-callod 'Cape
rubies") are larger In size than these,
aud perhaps by daylight equal to them,
there aro t.ndoubtedly no garnets found
that apptor better In the evening and by artificial
light than those from the United States. The dark
color of the Cane garnets remains Inartificial light,
whereas the American garnets Bhow only tho clear
blood-red hues. The color of these 'Is usually a
rich red, but very often purple or almandlne, and
sometimes approaching to the tint of honey.
Many thousand dollars' worth of these garnets
have been disposed of. They are rarely larger
than three carats each. Fine garnets are also
fouud In North Carolina, Pennsylvania and New
Kngland.
The tourmalines from Maine have long enjoyed
world-wide reoowu as the finest known. Crystals
over eight inches In length have beeu mined, but,
unfortunately, many have been Injured either by
weathering or by blasting. A rlnu while cut
achrolte uf twenty-three carats, a rJnn ruby-red
tourmaline of over twenty carats, some green of
over tneuty-rlve carats, and a large number of
almost, all conceivable colors, are Ui the Hamlin
and (ihepsrd collections. The former contains the
finest series of this gem In the world, and would
furnish full suites for a dozen cabinets. At this
locality are crystals white nt one end, shad
ing Into grotn, then light green, and llnally
red at the other end. We llnd here all (he inter
esting occurrence of a green outer crystal Inclosing
a white one, within which Is a red or blue centre.
The gems from this locality would amount to many
thousands of dollars lnalue. Auburn, Me., has
also furnished a number of light blue and the prin
cipal lighter shades of blue and pink gems, but
none over e u carats In weight. Kxtilorstlona.at
Ncwcorub, N. Y., during the last summer brought
to light many Cne brown and yellowish crystals,
some weighing several carats, which are the finest
yet discovered In this country, and closely resemble
the brown gems from Carlntbla, Austria.

AN OLD-TIME ELECTION
There Wore! lively Hcenes Around the Polls
lu Kentucky In Those Days.
Trorn a Itlttr fty Gwrg P. irnifo, founder qf (As
Loui.tM. Journal, IPHII.n 1830.
Deak biB I have Just witnessed a strange thing
a Kentucky election and am disposed to give
jon an account of It. An election In Kentucky
lasts three days, and, during that period whiskey
and apple-toddy flow through our cities snd vil
lages like the Euphrates in ancient Baoylon. I
must do Lexlngtou the juBltoe to say that matters
wero conducted here with tolerable propriety; but
lu Frankfort, a place which 1 had the curiosity to
visit on the last day of the election, Jacksomsm
and drunkenness Btslkcd triumphant' 'an unclean
pair of giants. " A number of runners, eaoh with
a whiskey bottle poking Us loug ncok from his
pocktt were busily employed bribing voters, and
each party kept half a dozen bullies under pay,
genuine specimens of Kentucky alllgator
Uin, to flog every poor fellow who
should attempt to ote Illegally. A half
a hundred of mortar would scarcely fill up tho
chinks of the sknlls that were broken on that occa
sion. I barely escaped myself. One of the run
ners came up to me and, slapping me on the shoul
der with his right hand and a whiskey bottle with
his left, asked mo If I was a voter. " No," said L
' ' Ah, never inlpd, " quoth the fellow, pulling a
corn-oob ont of the neck of the bottle andshaking
It np to the best advantage, "Jest tako a swig at
the cretur and toss in a vote for old Hickory's boys
I'll fight for yon, damme I" Hero was a tempta
tion, to be sure, but after looking alternately at tho
bottle and the bullies who were standing ready with
their sledge-hammer lists tp knock down all Inter
lopers, my fears prevailed and I lost my whiskey.
Shortly after this I witnessed a fight that would
have done honor toMendoza and Dig lien. A great
ruffian-looking scoundrel, with arms like a pair of
cables knotted at the ends, and a round black head
that looked like a forty-four pound cannon Bhot,
swaggered qp to the polls and threw In his bit of pa
per, andwas walking off In triumph. ' 'Stop.frlend,"
exclaimed one of tno Salt Itlver Hearers, stepping
deliberately up to him, " Areyoua voterT" "Yes,
by ."riplledhcof the Ilullet Head. "That's
a lie, " rejoined the Itoarer, "and you muBt Just
prepare yourself to go homo an old man, for I'll bo
damned If I don't knock yon Into the mlddlo of
your ninety-ninth year. " ' ' Ay, ayt " replied tho
other, "come on, then; I'll ride you to hell,
whipped up with tbe sea sarplntl" They had now
reached an open space, and tbe Salt Itlver bully,
snaking his flat a moment by war of a feint,
dropped his chin snddenly npon his bosom and
pitched headforemost towards the atomaoh of his an
tagonist with tho whole force of his gigantic frame.
Bullet Head, however, waa on his guard, and,
dodglndaslde with the rfulckness of lightning to
avoid tho shock, gave the assalUnt a blow that sent
him staggering agonist a whiskey table, where ho
fell to tne ground amid tho craBh of bottles, mugs!
and tumblers. Nothing dannted by this temporary
discomfiture, the bully gathered himself up, and,
with a single muttered -curse, renewed bis place In
front of his foe. Several blons were now glvtn
on both sides with tremendous effect, and In a
few moments tho Salt Itlver boy, watching bis
opportunity, repeated the manoeuvre In which ho
huu first been fulled. This time he was successful.
His head was planted directly In bis antagonist's
stomach, who fell backward with such force that I
had no expectation of his ever rising again. "Is
the scoundrel done fort" inquired the temporary
victor, walking up and looking down on his pros
trate 101. Ilullet Iload spoke not, but with tho
bound of a wild cat leaped lo his feet and grappled
with his enemy. It waa a trial of strength, and the
comlmtants tugged and strained and foamed at tbe
mouth, and twined like serpents around each
other's bodies, till nt length the strength of the
Budet Head prevailed, and his opponent lay strug
gling beneath him. "Gouge him!" "Oougo
bltii l" exclaimed a dozen voices, and the tppmost'
combatant seized bis tlctlm by the hair, and was
Preparing to follow the nd Ice that was sbonted In
U ear, when the prostrate man, roused by des
peration and exerting a strength that seemed su
perhuman, caught his assailant by the throat with
a grasp like that of fate. For a few moments tho
struggle seemed to cease, and then the fuco of lho
throttled man turned black, his tnnsue fell, out of
bis mouth, and he rolled to the ground as senseless
as a dead man. I turned away a confirmed believer
In the doctrine of total depravity.
