They received a majority of the votes cast
for the proposition , but not a majority of
the total number of votes cast at the elec
tion , as roqulrod by law. The exact vote
on the proposition cannot bo given because
a go d number of the election boards failed
to make the proper nnotnclal teturns. The
figures cannot bo secured , until the Board
of Education eltn as a Canvassing b-ard
on next Monday night. According to the
returns so far lu , with twelve precinct J

against the proposition. The- grand total
of the former will probably bo In the
vicinity of 5,000 , between 2,000 and 3.000
less than the number required.
A good many of the board members do
not feel that this vote expresses the senti

Hrn-vo and Suoufimfiil StriiKKle of a
llnltlinorc "Woman ,
Mlsa Catherine Noble of Baltimore , one
of the women rescued from the wrecked
steamer Mohcgan , which went down off the
English coast on the evening of October 14 ,
gives an Interesting account of her struggle
for life In a letter to her parents and pub
lished In the Baltimore Suu. The letter Is
In part as follows :
"Ever slnco arrival In London I have bc n
besieged by reporters , telegrams , Ist'ors
and visitors until I should have lost my
mind , except by direction of the doctor , who
.
would not allow mo to see any one until I
jestcrday , when I saw two of my best
friends. Even now 1 do not realize what
I have been tntough , as the doctor will not
allow mo to talk of It. However , I rup-
pose jou are anxious to know the particu
lars. Everything on the trip promUe.1 to
bo EO pleasant , for we had such a friendly
set of passengers.
"All went well until Friday night at 7
o'clock , when I was at dinner. I sat next
to the captain , with Mr. and Mrs. King op-
rrislte , all of wl'om were loxt. Si dilunlv
then- was a craMi. v.hlch I first thought was
the machine.buaklng down , and wont on
deck to see what v.-as the mattar. 1 was.
as usual , ttr tn reach the do-k and lo
men ald keep quiet , that wo were goln on ,
but I heard the captain order out llfo bo its.
So I went dortii to my cabin , got 0111 a ll'o : ' .
belt , took my capo pud steamer riu" to cct I
Into the uuatPlc'tul up mv inojcv and I
Jewelry aud put them inside m > dress and j' i
started on ] ° ik , whei every ll-jht wont out. : |
"Whon I reached the deck I saw at once
there was to bo a struggle for our lives. !
.
So I dropped my rug , cape and satin skirt I
and climbed Into a boat , but there seemed
no prospect of launching thtra , no 1 stepped
out , waiting for the next thing to happen.
"Tho ship was fast sinking , and Ikr
waves washing over the deck , and the fourth
officer came and said : 'Miss Noble , jou
must Jump on the deck nnd try to got to
the rigging. ' So I took off my shoes eo
that I could climb better and Jumped. Tbo
wave knocked us both down , but I held on
until ho could get off his coat and boots ,
then wo tried to gtt to the rigging , but
could not , so I asked him to help mo over
the railings and I would etay thcro , which '
*
he did
"The ship was breaking up. and Just as
I was about to brace myself for a shock , n t
wave washed over us , and my next sensa
tion was of going down , down , down. Not
for an Instant did I lose ray presence of
rnlnd I waited until U was time to com .
up nnd began to tread water. People
I
clutched me on all sides , but as soon ai
I reached the top I struck out to get away
from the ship and the people. Those few
moments I shnll never forget ; the shrleka
and fcrearuB of those poor people drowning
around me.
"I teen found some wreckage , and many
of us drifted around together , the waves
knocking us tn every conceivable di ,
rection and breaking over us. The ' .
fourth officer came up on a hatch cover. {
and told me not to struggle , and help would
surely came , a ho was euro we wcro near
land. He wan llu mo tome time , then a
wavu broke over u and he has not bcon
alpre
"Aftt T a time 1 minagcd to grasp a plank
and I filling to It with afl'my strength.
, , anil knocked about by the
sea. I couM hear ottiors crying as they
sank on all sides. I thought rcvernl times
that I muBt let go the plank. Then 1 re
membered that the young woman who was
saved at the time of thn lota of the North
Germin Lloyd steamer Elbe In the North
fen was In the water five hours. Surely I
said , of she did that I can do as much , and
nl times something seemed to assure mr-
that I should b ? saved for the sake of my
mother < , for I am her only child.
"Hut for the recollection of the woman
< avcil from the Gibe I do not believe that
I could have held on hour after hour When
I had been there three houra A lifeboat res
cued me and I was taken to a fisherman's
cottage.
"To this day I cannot understand hovr
I managed to be saved. Not a soul who
was In the water or who went over with
me ever survived. Even the men were
worn out and exhausted by the strength
of the waves The crow who were paved
wcro taken from the rigging and lifeboats
that were wished overboard. The wave
that sent mo overboard probably saved
ray life The moat of those poor creatures
with both hands , and having sipped of the
contents holds It while the friend at. hlB side
ioplact" the cover and takes the cup , repent-
lug the same process In turn with his rtext
neighbor Thus both hands being occupied
there Is no po 'hlllty ' of one "friend" Blob
bing another. In our tlrao the custom has
degenerated , and the cover as a rule has
disappeared
went down with the ship. I am , lee ,
thankful that I was with no one , for I
should probably have followed them , but
as It was I did Just as my ecnt > c dictated
"After being taken Into the lifeboat I
was laid across the laps of two seamen ,
who rubbed my rimbs and poured brandy
down my throat which made me deathly
Kick and relieved me of the quantity of
salt water 1 had swallowed. One. poor
man took off his coat und covered me.
The money , etc , which I had placed In my
drees had been washed out , how , I do not
know' .
"I could not move when I was cut on
Rhorc , and my Idea was that I was In for a
case of Inflammatory Rheumatism I was
then taken Into a poor fisherman's house ,
where I received every care and attention.
The daughters rubbed me down , then rolled
mo In hot blankets , with water bottles
around me and dosed me with hot water and
whisky. The doctor came at onoe and said
I would bo all right. I never saw such good ,
kind people In all my life. They were up
with me all night , and , of course , no one
had any sleep.
"The next morning the doctor's wife and
friends came bright and early to bring me
some clothes , and I was driven to the doc
81t
tor's ( house , where I remained until Sunday
evening , when Mr. and Mrs Silo came for
me.
"Before leaving the little fishing village
i wont around to tee the men and crew
who had been raved , and their appreciation
was most touching. One poor man , who had
his fingers cut off , caino up and kissed me ;
eaid ; he bad a family at home
"This little village Is a mile from where
the doctor lived. When I reached him I
was put to bed and well cared for. Sunday
morning , though , I got up and went to the
little church , and It was only then I realized
what I had been through and from
what I had been sav d. One part of His
church was curtained off to conceal the bodies
cltl
ies of those that had been lost and were
waiting to be Identified. Every one was
naturally greatly affected.
"Mrs. Leverton Spry , the doctor's wife ,
has nn only child. So jou know they did
everything for me. Telegrams poured In
from all directions and I never knew before
I had so many friends over here. Cvcry
one wanted mo to come direct to their house ,
but Sunday afternoon I was dumbfounded
to seeMr. . and Mrs. Silo. They had traveled
all night and had then driven twenty miles
to get to mo. Of course we had a grand
weeping match. Jane hod brought all neces
sary clothing , even to a veil , nnd a purse
of gold sent by a friend , for they knew
I had lost everything. They are. Indeed ,
true friends.
"After they had changed horses they drove
me back to Falmouth , another twenty miles ,
where they bad a fine dinner , but I couM
eat nothing , o went to bed. I was sorry
to leave all those good , kind people behind
me.
"Monday we came over to London , a ten
hours' trip , where I was put to bed and
the doctor sent for Tuesday , who gave me
something to make me sleep and quiet mj
nerves. He kept me In bed two days , which
weakened me considerably , but I know It
was best.
"I have kept all my letters and telegrams
for jou to read , which still continue to
come. This morning I had a nice note and
photograph from the young woman who
was saved from the Elbe , and also a letter
with clippings from the French papers. Why
people j are making such a fuss over me I do

may bo carried Into effect at tome time.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.
A great deal of building Is going on In
ho city at the present time and quite a
number of property owners contemplate
mlldlng houses UE soon as the necessary ar
rangements can bo made. Great Improve
ments are being made to property on Twnc-
ty-fourth street. On the cast side , near C
street , three cottages , to cost $5,000 , are bo
ng built , while directly across the street
ground has been broken for a residence.
The Glasgow block near M street is up to
; ho second Btory , as is also the now Joslln
block a little farther down tlio'street. . The
eight Armour cottages on Q street are nearly
completed and the grounds are being ter
raced and sodded. A number of residences
are going up In all parti ) of the cltj' and
in some Instances a house is rented long
before It Is completed. ' Heal estate men
say that the demand for houtcs continues
and consequently exceeds the supply. Kent *
continue high and those who expected a
reduction In rents after the close of the
exposition will be disappointed. Vacant
stores are as hard to find as vacant houses
nnd the rental for such places remains the
same ai during the summer. Building Inspector
specter Dunscombo looks for a busy winter
In the matter of building and Improve
ments.
Sidewalks Move Awny.
Reports are constantly Jnlng In about
the condition of wooden sidewalks In dif
ferent parts of tbo city When a plank
becomes loosened It Is soon carried away
and the street commissioner Is kept busy
replacing stolen nnd worn out-planks. A
great deal of work needs to bo done on the
sidewalks before winter sets In and it la
probable that the city fathers will order
general repairs to be made to the walks all
over the city. Several damage suits al
leged to have been caused by defective sidewalks -
walks are now hanging fire and tome mem
bers of the city government think It would
bo much cheaper to keep the walks in re
pair thin to be paying personal Injury
clalqs all of the time.

THURSTON ON THE ELECTIONS
M-lirnnUn'n Junior Senator DrnviN
home CoiicliinloiiH from TIIOH-
VutliiK.
Senator John M. Thurstou yesterday gave
the following opinion as to the causes of
the voting that was done Tuesday
"Tho sweeping republican victory In the
west. Including Nebraska , means the un
conditional Indorsement of President Mc-
Klnlej's administration , thp conduct of the
war and his foreign policy. The battle
was fought on the straight gold standard
platform and the resuft , In my Judgment ,
absolutely eliminates free silver as n na
tional Issue In 190Q. Anything like a suc
cessful fusion between the democrats and
popullrts will bercafler La Impossible. The
entire tendency of the Independent voters
Is to return to old party allegiance , with
permanent gains to the republican party
from the best element of the democracy
and populists. The result Is rargcly duo to
the prosperous conditions of agriculture and
business generally. The people are satis
fied with present conditions
"In Nebraska the fuslonists early in the
campaign practically abandoned the free sil
ver Issue and for a time attempted to main
tain themselves by criticism of the conduct
of the war. Driven from this , they fell
back on nn attack upon the McCleary bill.
The republican campaign was very active
and aggressive nnd successfully met the
three Issues In detail1 Above everything
else , however , was the patriotic determina
tion to stand by nn administration whoso
victories In war and whoso far-reaching and
successful foreign policy have won the ad
miration of Christendom. "

It was n great iclenttllc expert who rf

costly battUnlil | ) lately roinpktctl for tlio
U. 8. uav > . When tlio hugo vessel \\M

stand tlio strain of tlio added wolght Tkti
whole ship ' \\.is lu danger of fairing to
pieceOvlng to a wi.ik npot In KB con
struction , tlio great man-of-war was hope
lessly ruined. It was only when tlio strain
came that UH weak condition wna actually
illscovcrid.
Strange as It miy seem , thcro are thou
sands of nii'u ami women In exactly the same
condition ns this great battleship. Thov
ha\c weak upoN In tlielr sjsleniH which
they never suspect. They pa > no attention
to alarming s > ni | > tnnis of lll-ht-nlth and seek

they discover too lite that they arc In no
condition to light with disease. They catch
a sudden fold or chill and It speedily turns
Into piu umonla. They suffer from peculiar
sensations or pains which cveutualry turn
out to be the Hjmptoms of Blight's dlseasn
or congestion of the User.
Where Is the weak spot In jour BjatemT
The chances nro that jou have QUO which
liadly needs attention. I'h } lcluns tell ui
that In almost every ease , the weak spot can
bo found lu the ll\er or hidings. These
great organs of the body require constant
watching. Our climate , our diet , our habit : *
of Ihlug put them to a continual tttr.ilii , mid
when they get out of order , thu whole sjs-
tem suffers.
If jou are fueling tlrnd. worn out , gloomy ,

There Is one cause for these weak spots.
There la only one way to cuio them. Somo-
thlng Is noideil to act on the liver and kld-
nejs , whcro the weakness exists. You cannot
euro dlseiso of these great organs with pllli
or other cheip icmedles. Something Is required
quired to strike at the root of the allmcn'
There Is In fact only one remedy which i
guaranteed to euro eveiy form of liver aiu
kldnej complaint. That rcnu-dj It , Warnei *
Safe Cure which for twenty jcars has stood
the test and earned , an all are nwnri1 , s
world-wide reputation. No other rcuiedj
compares with It for regulating the action ol

building up the sjsteni and giving fresh
