Board of Supervisors Will Stand JO to 4 In their Favor. The result fl^ .L-hmton couny r town officers Is most gratifying from a Republican standpoint. In nearly every town the Democrats placed in nomination their strongest party man, hoping thus to make gains which would give them control of the Board of SupervisonT but their erforts were unsuccessful' and in but two towns did they make gums. In Saranac they elected E J 1-ickwtt, without opposition, and the ' town of Clinton also returns a Derao- CTatic supervisor in the .person of Dr. J. W. Moriarity. In Altona, John B Promibly, Democrat, succeeds H L Carpenter. B. McGregor made a gal- lant fight against Mr. Trombly, but the odds were too heavy, and he mat down to defeat with true Republicaa- colors flying. Elleriburg-h proved a/ surprise to both Republicans and Dem-' ocrats alike. This town sends as ite 1 representative on tihe Boiard of Super- visor. M. W. McGaulley, Democrat, who defeated F. W. Sherlock, the Re- p-blican nominee, by t 24 majority. i rus is looked upon as the greatest victory of the Democracy, and one they least expected. In Chazy the Democrats were benefited iby sectrioi* al feeling which they engendered, ar- raying ithe east end of the town against Peter A. 'Fessette. the Repub- ' iican nominee for Supervisor* wiho is a resident of the west aide, but they were not successful, and Mr. Fessette with the entire Republican ticket was elected by 35 majority. In 'Pttatitsburgh the election was ono- of the quietest in years. A compact had been entered Into by the leadeiv of both parties to use no money at the polls, but the compact was not, it is reported, faithfully carried out by the •Demoonats in several of the distriote.

A STBAXGE ACCIPKXT. The Water Iffain Crossing the River Broken by the Ie< The residents of the east side of the river were deprived of water for a short time , Sunday afternoon by means of a strange accident. The water main which supplies that part of the tillage is laid on the bottom of the river, in the pond above the Bridge street 'bridge. About three o'clock the water in the pond was lowered by the closing of the gates at some of the d'ams further up the river, and the ico in the pond, which has been used all winter for a skating rink, grad- ually settled toward the bottom, and striking the water main caused the break, which resulted in the lack of water on the east side. When the ice settled there were a number of skaters on the rink, and all made a hastv start for shore. When Peter Rabideau, overseer of he water works, learned of the ac- cident, he at once furnished the Brooklynites with water by using the lain crossing the river, near the Catherine street bridge.
