FROM Last year they gave Republican ma
jority.
In Ward 2 the Republicans elected their Al
derman and one Councilman-the other two
Republican candidates wanting only two and
three votes to elect them. Another trial will be
had Wednesday to fill the vacancies.
In Ward 4Dr. Gordon, Democrat, was de-
feated as Councilman and DR.. Thomas A Eos
ter, Republican, was elected. la
In Ward z the most strenuous efforts were
made to defeat Mr. Winship, the regular Re-
publican candidate for Alderman, and Mr.
Charles A. ellison, Republican, who repre-
sented Ward for two years in the Board, was
brought out as a candidate by the Democrats
and adopted by the "Citizens." The contest in
this Ward was the severest of any in the city,
but the indomitable spirit of the true Republi-
cans brought the fruits of victory.

We have not received the official returns, but
we believe that, with the probable exception of
Ward 4, the Republicans have elected all the
Wardens and Clerks, and also all their candi-
dates for Constables

"NEIGHBoR LAKEWOOD. After weeks of
careful preparation, J. 7. Trowbridge's beaut-
full drama of "Neghbor lakewood" was pro-
duced at Music Hall last evening, by the L. D.
c. Dramatic Club. The hall was well filled,
and the drama was presented in an admirable
manner. As an effective dramatic picture, this
famous story has few equals in the whole range
of the modern standard drama, and its start
ling incidents, pathetic situations and humorous
Developments hold the closest attention of the
spectator. The sturdy devotion of the honest
Vermont farmer, Neighbor lakewood, to the
friendless and unprotected fugitive, Camille,
who is pursued by the bloodhounds of the law,
is as noble an example of chivalrous bravery
and heroism as any recorded by the pen of the
| poet or novelist. As whole the performance
was above the average of the dramatic enter
tainments, and all who desire to see this favor
lite drama should embrace the last opportunity
this evening. tLE G4ri}
