POWER OF ONE VOTE.
A Single Ballot Has Often Decided an Important Contest.
In the Continental congress of 1775 Benjamin Harrison defeated John Hancock by one vote for the presidency office. But the Virginian insisted on a new ballot and by his own vote chose Hancock.
In 1784 the illness of one delegate from New Jersey kept slavery out of states admitted to the Union after 1800 and thus confined the civil war contestants to the south Atlantic states.
July 25, 1788, one vote ratified the constitution after the famous debate between Madison and Henry at high mond. The next day the debate between Hamilton and Clinton ended with New York following suit. In 1790 Rhode Island came in with an equally small margin.
Alexander Hamilton swung one vote to Thomas Jefferson in the electoral college of 1800, thus breaking a deadlock after thirty-six ballots and defeating Aaron Burr. This really began the feud which cost Hamilton his life on the Palisades at Weehawken.
In 1808 Jesse Thomas by his own vote went to congress from the Indiana district. He succeeded in moving the northern boundary of Illinois fifty miles north, thus giving it a lake outlet. Had Illinois been united commercially with the south and her interests tinged with southern ideas the election of Lincoln could never have taken place, and the whole history of the country would have been different.
May 26, 1838, the senate of the United States declared against the impeachment of Andrew Johnson by one vote, 35 to 19, when two-thirds were necessary to decide.—Chicago Journal.
A MISNAMED EXHIBIT.
AFTER DEATH
Large Parts of the Body
For a Time
To the unscientific thing of a surprise to parts of the body are after the phenomenon as death has taken place suspect, for example, that and hearts after we ourselves can in most cases tated and that if by miracle they could be into another body they resume their function ever, is a well demonized fact. The human heart moved from the body no hours after death and again. Dr. Carrel him the heart from one detail in the neck of another the aorta with the cauldron the new heart and the its jugular vein. In all the live dog had two healthy beating, one record eighty-eight and the other Science has yet fraught definition of death. The teems and quivers will small part of which is of individual conscience healthy man hardly numerous and complex internal organs. The air is the abiding place of micro organisms, the act only occasionally influenza. Bodily tissue ever stantly breaking down building up, and yet last few years that begun to understand chemical reactions in process.—McClure's Ma
A MISNAMED EXHIBIT.
Brings Joy to the Museum Visitors and Worries the Curator.
A curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art is threatened with insanity, the cause being a small misnamed exhibit in the gallery outside his office door.
"Twenty times a day," declared the harassed man, "people discover that that chiral statuette out in the Franklin collection is named General Washington instead of Benjamin Franklin. Then they burst in here and announce their discovery and wonder that no one ever noticed it before. Half my time is spent in explaining that we know it well that it was simply a mistake of the potter who labeled it in France over a century ago and that we cannot change it nor wouldn't if we could."
"Of course I tell them this courteously and patiently, and you know what a strain that is when you are going over the same thing for the thousandth time! I'd latch the door only there are too many employees seeking me all day long, so here I must sit and listen to the names of George Washington and Benjamin Franklin repeated a million times till I wish that neither of those glorious patriots had ever lived. And it's driving me insane, I tell you; it's driving me insane."
Just then the door opened and a lady popped in with:
"There's a statue out here named General Washington, but I'm sure"—And the weary curator, being a southern rose smilingly to his task.—New York Times.
A Telegram That Talked.
At one time when Georgie Drew Barrymore was playing in San Francisco a fabulous sum was offered her by a local theater for her services for a few weeks. The offer was exceedingly tempting, but her contract with Charles Frohman stood in the way. However, on the nothing-venture-noting-won theory, she telegraphed a decro organisms, the act only occasionally influlife.

A Telegram That Talked.
At one time when Georgie Drew Barrymore was playing in San Francisco a fabulous sum was offered her by a local theater for her services for a few weeks. The offer was exceedingly tempting, but her contract with Charles Frohman stood in the way. However, on the nothing-venture-noth ing-won theory, she telegraphed a detailed statement of the offer she had received to Frohman in New York, explained how anxious she was to accept it and wound up with the plea "Will you release me?" In due course of time she received the following tele grain in answer:
Mrs. Georgie Drew Barrymore, Palace Hotel, San Francisco:
No! CHARLES FROHMAN.
Albeit disappointed, Mrs. Barrymore at once sent this characteristic reply: Charles Frohman, New York City:
Oh!

Doing Double Duty.
"It was one of those sleepy, one horse, back water towns, like Squash," said a congressman, describing at a Hot Springs dinner a town that he disliked.
"Squash is the limit. A gentleman arrived there the other day and wanted a hair cut. He found the barber shop and, after shaking the barber vigorously, managed to awaken him.
"'How long will it take you to cut my hair, barber?' he asked.
"'Not long, boss,' said the barber.
'And he rose, yawned and stretched himself. Then he called upstairs to his wife:
'Hey, send the kid down to the newspaper office to tell the editor I want my scissors just as soon as he done editin' the paper There's a gen here waitin' for a hair cut.'"—Washington Star."
AFTER DEATH.
Large Parts of the Body Retain Life For a Time.
In the unscientific citizen it is some-thing of a surprise to learn that large parts of the body are alive and useful for the phenomenon popularly known death has taken place. Few of us suspect, for example, that our kidneys or hearts after we have died our lives can in most cases be resuscified and that if by some surgical procedure they could be transplanted into another body they would quickly come their functions. This, however, is a well demonstrated medical fact. The human heart has been re-used from the body more than thirty years after death and made to beat again. Dr. Carrel himself has taken the heart from one dog and inserted it on the neck of another, connecting aorta with the carotid artery of a new heart and the vena cava with jugular vein. In a few moments alive dog had two hearts rhythmical repeating, one recording a pulse of eight-eight and the other a hundred. Science has yet framed no precise definition of death. The human body consists and quivers with life, only a small part of which becomes a part of individual consciousness. The healthy man hardly realizes the numerous and complex activities of his internal organs. The alimentary canal the abiding place of millions of microorganisms, the activities of which occasionally influence our daily life. Bodily tissue everywhere is constantly breaking down and constantly healing up, and yet it is only in the few years that even science has begun to understand the beautiful chemical reactions involved in the process.—McClure's Magazine.
THE COOK'S INJURY.
THE COOK'S INJURY.
Funful to Her and to the Dinner Guests as Well.
There was company at dinner, and a platter in front of the host conceived a fine roast of beef. He drew sharp carving knife across the gring steel a few times, just because it is a way carvers have, drove deep into the steaming beef, delicately began operations.
Two nice and tender slices clear cross the roast had resulted, and he turned off the third when the side struck a skewer, made a slidingward motion and came out at the end, with a result that the proposed cook looked like a frost bitten leaf ended up by the sun.
He could not say intense things in the presence of his guests, but he zze his wife with a look, made a joke about the indigestibility of rusted hard wood, inquired whether the butcher also ran a woodyard, dug the skewer out violously and ordered Willie, who had made several attempts to tell something, to keep still leave the table. His evident temper to an embarrassing silence, and Willie saw an opening that he could resist.
Cook has burned her nose orful," announced.
"Too bad," said the father, whose good humor was coming back. "How did she do it?"

Gringo Songs In '49.
On the gringo days, the days of old, the days of gold, the days of '49 musements and recreation in California could only be found in the mining towns when a strolling singer made an appearance in some saloon, the admission fee paid by frequent visits to the bar. The words were set to well down ballad tunes, and if the singer caught on" he or she was rewarded small nuggets thrown on the improvised table stage. As the old record days, they were "sung with great applause."

In the gringo days, the days of old, the days of gold, the days of '40s, museums and recreation in California could only be found in the mining towns when a strolling singer made an appearance in some saloon, the admission fee paid by frequent visits to the bar. The words were set to well down ballad tunes, and if the singer caught on" he or she was rewarded with small nuggets thrown on the improvised table stage. As the old record days, they were "sung with great appause," to which was added the landlord's warning call, "Come, come, nuts, don't let the barkeeper go to sleep."—"Our West."
What "Borough" Signifies.
The word "burgh" in Saxon stood for "castle;" hence towns anciently erected in the vicinity of castles for their protection had this name conferred upon them, and the soldiers who imprisoned these were called burghers, for the inhabitants of these towns relied the same name. These also being formed into a community, the institution formed for their regular government was denominated the borough laws.
