Parkersburg, W.

Nov. 6. The West Virginia campaign closed tonight wlih both candidates for Governor too tired out' to make Speeches. Each lde. seems confident of the result.

Should the. Democrats ennyv their Stat ticket wlth a Inrge plurality it might mean that Parker and Davis would, be carried along with the Stats ticket to extent sufficient to them a plurality In the State. Milwaukee, Nov. 6. That the Roosevelt and Fairbanks electors will carry Wisconsin on Tuesday next ther seems to bo no question.

The Lnfol-tte officials believe that the governor will be re-elected by a plurality ranging between 60.000 and 75,000. The Democrats figure from their reports that Peck will carry the State from 25,000 to 40,000. Baltimore, Nrv. 5. -Democratic State Chali man Murray Van Diver in public statement made today, said: 'Our party ijs united as perhaps It has never been before and the State will give Parker and Davis 15.000 majority, and we will certainly elect four gpn of two." .1 Republican' State Chairman John llanna, admits that the State will be cbe, "Th quiet vot "he raid, will carry.

It may be said truthfully, however, that ull of these features were performed 1 Yesterday with a dash and spirit and excellence that has not been noted herd In many years. a circus act does not pall, however well known it may be.

Its value is in its execution. whirling leap uf a woman through the air to grasp the strong hands of the man suspended lo ratch her cannot fall to thrill, however certain one may be that the danger is all in the looks of the thing. The antics of the clowns have in their prehistoric quality a humor that holds to the end of the chapter and the- chariot races and the other contests of the "hippodrome" never fail to arouse thundering cheers, notwithstanding the fact that the man is always put up only to be out footed by the lady. The Forepaugh-Sells Brothers aggregation carried off all these stunts with a charming perfection, There were several features that were especially worthy of. commendation, of these the company of Zouaves perhaps carried off the palm.

Their drilling was a marvel of precision. As they broke and whirled about on the stage in Intricate manoeuvres, marching with a quick-step that it strained the ear to mark the rythm of coming Into instant and unvarying alignment and bringing down their sixteen guns with a thump that sounded like that of an Individual, manipulating their rifles in whirling circles of steel that paused in their revolutions on the second, the crowd burst Into prolonged and enthusiastic cheering. When, finally, the company broke from the stage and ran to and scaled a fourteen foot wall with their guns. In scarcely more time than a second to the man, the applause was deafening. "Mamma, what Is a Zouave? Why don't they have a flag?" asked a little boy of his mother in the reserve seats.

"A Zouave don't belong to any arm, dear." replied the mother. "They are natives of some part of Africa." The Eddy family, two men a half dozen women and a little girl dressed In yellow did some of the most clever paramld and tumbling work ever seen In Raleigh, the somersaulting of the girl of the family being highly sensational. Miss Maud Hayward, who Is a native of Richmond. drove a horse around the ring and made him do all ths tricks known to horsemanship, the best part of this act being that Miss Hayward was almost as good looking as the horse. The bare back riding was excellent and the female riders comely, "as were the women who did the rope walking one of the best things in the show and the traiese work.

The which closed the performance, was thrilling while it laued. but one didn't have time to be alarmed since it was over before one could draw two good breaths. Altogether the circus was a succ '-( A tnd la i from Mm loiji addreMj.f.iv. 'y lift com, Ji lomplcttd i. iiuor-a Luioe ma ttt fitlier pice.

When the teams lined up it looked hke they were pretty evenly matched and that the winning team would win bv a small score, if either should be allowed to score at all.

Georgetown was fully fifteen pounds heavier than Curollna and won the game only by the Tar Heels. faroiina won the toss and chose to kick off. Carpenter booted the leather for Carolina, placing It beyond the goal line. Then Georgetown kicked off to Carolina from" the twenty-five yard line. Carolina soon gave up the ball on downs.

Georgetown then advanced the ball some few yards, but was forced to kick. Carolina received the ball on her twenty yard line and carried It to Georgetown's three yard line and bv some of Carolina's men missing the signal she lost the ball. Georgetowi. then advanced the ball some few yard and the first half was up; score 0 to 0. In the second half, Carolina kicked to Georgetown again.

She advanced the ball but coon lost It. Then Ja-cocks for Carolina tried a drop from the field, but It was blocked and Georgetown got the ball. Georgetown then scored her first touch down and kicked goal. Georgetown then kicked to Carolina. She advanced the ball to the middle of the field, but wtu forced to punt.

Georgetown secured the bail and soon made another touch, down but failed to kick goal. The lost time Georgetown kicked to Carolina and she carried the ball well 1 down In Georgetown's territory, but lost on Qewns Then GeDrgetown brought the bell to the center of the field. Here she sent one of her backs through Carolina's line and by a strong Interference and hard kicking, hiking, hiking, he rushed over for a touch down. No goal. Time up; score 16 to 0.

No one ever saw a prettier game than Ihe first half. In fact the Tar Heels played all ovr the Catholics, but in the last half Carolina was winded. Georgetown m.idt her distsnc by heavy line plunging, being unable to make any distance around ends. While Carolina made distance she could call a play, yet she made more ground on end runs. Cero-ilna'fc whole team was a star, a big star, but Stewart and- Carpenter especially did fine work.

It will be especially gratifying to all of North Carolina to loam tht Glvens. George, town's center, who stands about 20 pounds t-t ripped, did not put It alt over Stewart. Carolina's center. -as ho (Glvens) had boasted that he would do, but In turn, bad It put all over him and was forced to "call for the calf rope" and a substitute was brought.
