Judge McOen expects to finish tlie work of
recounting the ballots In the treanurcrshlp
election contest thin evening , but there
Bccina to he some iplestlon as to whether he
will be through even then. He will cer
tainly not If Attorney J. J. Shea sticks to
hln decision of yesterday. Last Tucudiiy a
dccUlon was liamhd down In the supreme
court of Iowa In the case of I. N. U'hittmn
against J. E. JJahorlck , an appeal from the
district court of Judge Preston at Cedar
Jtapdn. ! In this decision some new points
nro * et at rest , arid Mr ! Shea claims It will
throw noine more light on hla sldo of the
situation. He stated yesterday afternoon that
he should go before Judge Mcdee this mornIng -
Ing amf i-.sk that the ballots ho reopened once
more and recounted. What the court will
say to such a proposition In hard to foretell ,
although It might not ba so dlincult to sur
mise what ho will think. All appearances
indicate that Shea's client already has a
< lcad cinch on the office , but he Is not sat
isfied with that ; he wants a cinch that Is
twice dead and plucked up by the roots.
This late decision ot the supreme cnurt has
already been briefly mentioned in The lice ,
but some of the points Involved bear so di
rectly upon questions that have been brought
up In probably every hamlet In the state
along about election time that moie par
ticular attention should be given It.
Three Justices of the peace were to be
elected In Cedar Itaplds In 1892 , and the three
democratic candidates were declared elected.
, The contest was based on the throwing out ot
Bcventy-seven ballots , In which the voter
had marked a cross at the head of the demo
cratic ticket and had marked a cross oppo
site the name of the contestant on the re
publican ticket. It was held In the lower
court that the voter had voted for four
candidates for three offices , and the ballots
were tlirnnn out. The supreme court holds
that they should be counted for the contest
ant , because the Intention of the voter was"
plainly to vote for him. The ballots could
not bo counted for any of the democratic
candidates because there was nothing to
nhow which two of them he proposed to vote
for. As the majority was only twenty-three
against the contestant , this would have set
tled the election In his favor.
In several other ballots the cross at the
top was marked and one or two names on
the two tickets. It Is held that In this case
the voter has voted for more candidates than
there are offices to fill , because them Is no
authority for the rejection of the names on
the ticket where the circle Is marked ; that
Is ; the law does not give the voter the right
to mark the circle at the top and to signify
Which of the candidates ho wishes to vote
for and which ho does not on that ticket.
He should have refrained from marking the
circle and marked each candidate for whom
ho desired to vote. The votes cannot bo
counted except for candidates whose names
were marked on tickets the circle of which
was unmarked.
The Intention of the voter was plainly to
vote for three candidates on different tickets ,
but the holding of the court Is that the law-
docs not give the voter the right to do thin.
He must follow the plan laid down In the
law.
law.It Is held that twenty-one ballots marked
Jn the circle "democratic , " and opposite the
name of the contestant , should have been
counted for the latter.
Thirty-nine ballots counted for the In
cumbent arc rejected because they were not
properly marked at the head , or were so
marked that they could be Identified. The
court holds that any billet that Is so marked
that It can bo Identified must be rejected.

crltud - I'remlcr'ft Strong Maud ,
PARIS , Mny 18. In tlie Chamber of Dep
uties M. Hnlbcrtl , representing the Alpes-
Mnrltlmes , questioned tlie government In
regard to the steps which It Intended to
take In regard to the circular which the
papal nuncio recently addressed to the
French bishops with reference to the law
directing that all church accounts should
bo kept uniformly. JI. Halhertl declared
the nuncio had no right to Indicate to the
bishops I ho political attitude they were to
assume. The nuncio's encroachment upon
the powers of the government might compro
mise the future * religious policy of France.
M. Hysscrln declared It was not a religious
question , but that the national dignity was
Involved. The nuncio had violated Inter
national law In Interfering In Internal leg
islation and the bishops In reply to this cir
cular had been guilty of a penal offense.
At , Oendre asked why the army took part
In the recent Joan of Arc fetes.
M , Cochin maintained that the papal nun
cio had not exceeded his powers. The nun-
nlo'slcttcr was merely counsel to the French
bishops and i\as In no way aggressive. Ho
believed the spirit of the country would
deprecate these attacks upon the church.
Further heated discussion followed , and
It was announced from the socialist mem
bers that they Intended to Introduce a reso
lution when the foreign estimates came be
fore the Chamber that the French em
bassy at the Vatican bo suppressed.
Premier Caslmlr 1'erler said the official
representation of the army at the Joan of
Arc fetes was forbidden , but ofllcors were
allowed to bo present In their private ca
pacity. Referring to the charges made
against the papal nuncio , the premier said
ho believed the latter's circular was well
intentloned. The premier said : "Neverthe
less , we deemed that explanations were nec
essary and we telegraphed to this effect to
the French minister at the Vatican , Count
do Fobvro dc Hehaltc , whereupon
the papal nuncio made an apol
ogy for sending the circular , declar
ing the Incident would not occur again.
This declaration satisfied the government
and the Incident was regarded as closed. "
( Cheers from the right ) .
The premier retorted , "If you disapprove
of this solution you can vote against the
government ; wo clearly Intimated to the
Vatican that the government would not
brook any Interference In regard to the
church accounts law , which may be modified
when the submission of the clericals is com
plete. Until" then the. government wljl re
fuse to enter into any negotiations on the
subject. "
This remark was greeted with cheers ,
after which many of the deputies pressed
around M. I'erler and congratulated him
upon his btrong declaration of policy. The
Chambpr by a vote of 3114 to 142 adopted
a motion approving of the declaration of
the premier.
Le Petit Journal says the radicals will
urge the government to demand the recall
of Mgr. Terrata , papal nuncio In France.

" 0 , Tin only a little nervous.
"I didn't use to be.
"What can I do to overcome It ?
Just wh.it a woman means by being a llttlo
nervous she can't exactly say. She tells you
she Is restless ; that she can no longer sew or
read ; conversation no longer Interests , or It
even troubles her ; nols.es startle her , and she
cries for no cause.
Such are first small beginnings of nervous
weakness. The world Is full of loving , pa
tient wives and mothers who- have been
called upon to suffer Intense cmotloinl strain ;
have undertaken to nurse those dear to them
through protracted Illness , or have worked
beyond their physical powers.
During the many years of hard and won
derful work , I'rof. Kdward 13. Phelps , Dart
mouth's great professor , had these weak ,
"run-down" women In mind. The dimly of
such cases of nervous prostration , neuralgia ,
rheumatism , dyspepsia and debility led him
to that most marvelous discovery of the cen
tury , Paine's celery compound. I'rof. I'helps
became convinced that the trouble In all
these cases of weakness lay In a disturbance
of nutrition.

that I could only ct around by the aid of
crutches. Nothing that I used did mo any
Kood , ami I despaired of regaining my health.
A friend recommended I'alno's celery com

months. As a result , I was able to visit the

and walking all day without any dlfilculty.
"Tho compound also did my sister a great
deal of good while attending cortege , giving

know of In the world that Is Us equal for
building up the weak and ran-down , and giv
