About 1:30 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
some thief made an entrance into an unoc-
cupied house, 456 New Jersey avenue south
east, by forcing the back door, and stripped
the lead connection of the gas metre and
attempted to tear out the lining of the bath
tub, but he was frightened away by Mrs.
Burkhamer, living next door. He left bag
containing a quantity of sheet copper, lead
pipe and connections.

IMPORTANT TO VIRGINIA VOTERS.
Observation-Disclosures BY Judge Lowe, Of
Alexandria

A case has been decided by Judge Lowe, OF
the Corporation Court of Alexandria, which
will serve as precedent in other cases of sim
liar character happening within that jurisdie
tion. A number of Alexandrians, temporarily
residing in Washington, should Immediately
press their claims for re-registration. Doug
lass Syphax, an attendant in the model-room
of the Patent Office, being denied the right to
register, went before Judge Lowe, few days
ago, and made an affidavit setting forth his
claim and right to citizenship in Alexandria,
upon which the Judge has decided that SyphaI
has right to re-register, in accordance with a
late statute of the State of Virginia.

The Congressional Committees In
the Southern States are collecting a
great mass of very conflicting evil
dence, u large part of which comes
from very untrustw0rthy persons.
When this testimony II all published
few can afford 10 read il, and com
parativcly few can get 1t to read.
There is little probability that 1t Will
settle matters In the public mind.
Every candid man who has had OPP
portunity aud has carefully watched
the course Of events I'm the disputed
Southern States through the daily
press reports, knows and admits that
The Democratic rifle clubs exerted q
corrupting and nullifying influence
upen the vote by murder and intim.
idation to such an extent as to justify
the throwing out OF the vote Of GER
tain precincts and parishes by the re.
turning boards, rs WAS by law made
their duty under such circumstances.
There is no evidence that the mem.
bers of those returning boards are
any more corrupt than those of the
undisputed Southern States. The
decision is fairly made In favor Of
Hayes and Wheeler and 50 ID will
stand in spite Of all this Democratic
bluster.

emanates from men of another type,

They are not the men TO scruple At

il they may steal into Office To do
more stealing. The decent rank and
file OF the party, however, those who
are not talking dreadfully about

A great meteor was seen about y
O'Clock last Thursday night from VA
rious points i'm Kansas, Iowa, Mis-

from Southwest to Northeast. Dis
patches indicate that 1t passed inn
mediately over every city and town
within $50 miles on either side Of its
real path. st. Louis and Burlington
papers both claim it passed directly
over those places, though its course
was such as to render this impossible;
it must have been at great height.

The Democrats have about given
up the hope Of securing that Oregon
vote for Tilden, and are directing
their principal efforts toward over
turning the official count in Loui5i-
ana. They will certainly fail In this
also. The vote Of that State has been
canvassed and returned according to
law, and the Tilden crowd know it,
but they want If possible to make the
people believe that they are cheated
