In your paper this morning is a story
of a monster which has been seen in
Crater lake, near Fort Klamath.
I visited that lake in 18?.?, with a party
of army officers, and we saw a white pel
ican, which at the distance of 1,000
yards looks as large as an ordinary boat
with sail set. Tho bird is magnified by
the surrounding atmosphere and the
fact thatf there is no object near by by
which a comparison as to size can be

Washington, Oct. 14. There is groat
excitement over tho elections. Commis
sioner Dudley telegraphs this evening
that the Republican majority in Ohio will
exceed the most extravagant estimates
made. Numerous private dispatches re
ceived here all speak confidently of largo
Republican gams. A full vote was polled
in both states, indicating a Republican
victory in Ohio and a reduction of the
Democratic majority in West Virginia.
Tho Republicans mako largo .tins in the
cities of the latter state. Well informed
politicians claim, from the returns thus
far received. 13.000 R publican majority
in Ohio, and perhaps 3.0 JO D&nocrai ic in
West Virginia.
New Yobk, Oct. 11. Present advices
indicate that Ohio has gone Republican
by 20,000 majority.
CoLusiur.s, Oct. 1310 p.m. Latest re
turns indicate that the Republican ma
jority is 12,000 (?). The Republicans
have ten congressmen, the Democrats

ixmMna majoeitius.
For twenty-eight years Ohio has been a
Republican state in ever3 presidential
year. Here are the majerities:
Year. Oct. Nov.
183G 19.3S0 1G.523
18G0 12.903 14.37S
18GI 34,731 39,3SC
18G3 , 17,333 41,423

187G G.R3G 7.31G
1830 19,003 23.133
1831 20,000 ?
Since 187G West Virginia has been
Democratic. In 1SG1, tho year sho was
admitted into the Union, she gave 12.000
Republican majority; in 18GS, 8.GG7 Re
publican majerity: m 1872, 2.2G1. In 187G
she gave Tilden 12,000 majority and in
1880 gave Hancock 11.000 majority. Some
Republican estimates placo her in the
Blaine column on the 1th of next month.
STOKE WINDOWS.
Appearances aro often deceptive, but,
nevertheless, they count for a great deal
in society. A well dressed man or woman
indicates good breeding and respectabil
ity. Outside appearance has due effect
on the public, to whom a more minute
opportunity is not given to form a truer
estimate of men and things. In this
busy age the most successful way to at
tract attention is by arresting the eye.
Objects photographed on tho eye aro at
once communicated to the brain, and
generate thought and action. This fact
is noticeable in children whose gaze is at
onco arrested by pictures in books, and
this mode of object teaching and con
veying information is as successful with
men and women who are, aftor all, but
children of a larger growth. Publishers
of newspapers and magazines find it
profitable to cater to this predilection
for something novel and unique, and
hence the larger number of illustrated
cuts and pictures which embellish their
pages. Advertisements that attract
the most attention aro of tho
illustrated order, and, following out the
idea, the stores which attract the largest
outside multitude aro those whoso win
dow displays are the most beautiful.
Window dressing, especially with dry
goods stores, is reduced to a lino art, and
it is one that pays. This taste for em
bellishing tho front of a store is no longer
confined to largo towns and cities, but
has extended with good results to other
places. Merchants who look upon win
dow decoration as a waste ol timo mako
a mistake. Thoso who givo the matter
duo thought, and seek to increase their
trade through an appeal to the eye, find
it n successful plan. A handsome show
window indicates neatness and order in
a store. Customers like to enter a store
thiit is neat, cheerful and attractive. A
handsomely dressed window is as much
an object of gossip and attention as a
village belle and beauty. lfj-ou doubt
this just take a look at" tho windows in
C. H. Cooper's store and noto tho atten
tion that passers-b3- give them and you
will agree with the above.

THE OHIO AM
WASHINGTON LETTER.
I From our KegularCorresponilens.i
Washington, Oct. G. 1SS1.
About tho hotels and clubs the political
outlook is tho chief topic. AH but the
most enthusiastic partisans agree that
! thore arc such various and opposing ele
ments at work that it is more difficult
than usual to forecast tho chances. Both
Euller and St. John are unknown quan
tities, but hardly more so than the tariff
question, the labor movement, the Irish
defection and the "mugwump" bolt. But
there is another unknown quantity at
work in the person of Mr.. Belva Ann
Lockwood. This novel candidate is act
ively ennaired in tho campaign, and her
cause even has a 'defection' led by Dr.
Alan- Walker, who says she will not vote
for any woman who parts her hfir in the
middle, but declines to bifurcate her tri
cycle. Apropos of Belva Ann, I am re
minded of a little anecdote bearing upon
her legal practice. The story goes that
Mistress Lockwood was arguing a case f
before Chief Justice Carter of the d3-:
trict bench. The justice, after ILcUnmg
with patience to her statement of the
case. oerraled the denmrrer that sho
had filed. Mistress Lockwood t hen made
a motion in the case, which his honor
summarily denied. Rising hurriedly,
with aouio animal ion tho jierplexed attor
ney remarked: ''1 should like to have
vour honor's advice what to do next."
Slowly and jwintedly tho witty chief jus
tice rcpl'cd: '"Mistress Lockwood, tho
court would advise yoa by all means to
employ a lawyer." Tho irate counsellor
rapidly disappeared with her bundle of
papers, and was seen llying down tho
slreot on her tricycle at a 2:10 gait trying
to bent Maud S.'s record.
From mountain, seaside, from houses
and from chopping stores in northern
cities, our people are returning in droves
to their city residences. "Is it going to
be a gay winter?" will soon be tho pro
vailing social conundrum. Doubtless
there will be about tho usual amount of
gayety. and, though should Cleveland bo
electc'd some bouses will be opened less
freely, official entertainments have lately
formed so small a part of tho sum total
of the social round that the closing of
all the 'vourt" houses would hardly be
missed. Of whatever politics ono may
be, all agreo that tho expiration of Mr.
Arl bur's administration will b a great
loss to the social world of tho national
capital.
The president is still tho guest of Sec
retary Freliughuysen at Raritan, N. J.
No intimation of the lime when he will
return hero has yet been received al the
White house. I think he is not likelv to
arrive before tho 13th. Secretary Fre
linghuysen has returned to his New Jer
sey home, and will spend most of tho
month of October there.
Rumors arc llying thick and fast that
tho president is to marry Miss Tilly Fre
liughuysen, and the report seems to be
believed in certain quarters. Such a
marriage would certainly add much to tho
social interest of tho Whits house enter
tainments during the coming winter, and
Miss Frelinghuysen is fitted to occupy
the station which would be assigned to
her.
I heard an interesting bit of political
information the other day in explanation
of how the auburn-locked Tom Ochiltree
got elected to congress. It has always
been supposed that he "made the race"
by money, but ray informant said "No
that wasn't the vf&y of it. Of coarse
there was money used, but that wouldn't
have been enough. What really elected
Tom was the Catholic vote, and I'll tell
you how he got it. You know, of course,
what a harum-scarum fellow Tom has
always been. Well, what will you say
when I tell you that Tom was elected to
congress because he was a devout child
of tho church! You see, when Tom was
a j'oung fellow ho onco had for a tutor a
man who afterward became a prominent
official in the Catholic church. This
man always had a fondness for his old
pupil, and when Tom was nominated for
congress, the sly fellow thought he
might mako something out of tho rela
tion. So he brushed up tho old acquain
tance, made friends with tho bishop of
the diocese, made a visit to a high digni
tary of the church, which lasted two or
three days, and was diligent in attenu
auco at the church. To help matters
along, as luck would havo it, Fjudlay,
whom tho Democrats had nominated,
was a Free Mason, and as a secret society
man tho Catholics were down upon him.
The upshot of it all was that tho word
was quietly passed around that the bish
op wanted to see tho man elected who
was a good Catholic which his name it
was Tom. Well, you know there is anj
quantity of Catholics down on the Rio
Grande, and that racket just did tho bus
iness. So that is tho way Tom Ochiltree
got elected to congress," concluded the
narrator.
Lawn tenuis parties are all the rage in

The IIoo&'Nosc Salmon.
Among the salmon now coming to
market are a large number having long
hooked noses and ferocious looking
mouths armed with largo and sharp
teeth. Thcfii fish arc males, aud with
them aro n few females, apparently genu
ino chinooks, plump, clean, silvery-looking
fish. It has been thought that the
hook-nosed fish mentioned above were a
separate species, but from the fact that
the are all males and are caught in com
pany with females of tho chinook species,
it is evident that the' belong to that va
riety. Bat what a chaugo their long stay
in fresh water has wrought. Their mis
shapen head and dingy, battered bodies
bear no resemblauco to tho plump, hand
some chinooks caught in season. Their
strong, sharp teeth would seem to dis
prove the idea that salmon eat nothing
dunug their stay in fresh water; but it
may bo that these aro weapons to be used
in guarding the eggs deposited by the
females. Though the flesh of these un
couth fish is of good color and many of
them aro in fair condition, they cannot
be considered as very suitable for food.

A vast ico -field, the accumulation of

bergs whose woudrous colorings and
grotesque formations exceeded our wild
