A new national assembly will be elected in
France next Sunday. The political canvass has
been very quiet because there is not opposition
enough to the republicans to make an animated
contest The old inperialist and royalist parties
have pretty We'll fallen to pieces under the peace
and prosperity of the republic. Only in few
districts can the Benapartists and the reac-
tionists muster strength enough to make any
Show OF opposition. The death of the Prince
Imperial was the death blow of Bonapartism in
France The conviction that the republic is
permanent has gradually forced itself upon the
public mind of that country, and none but

week. when it is considered that the college
was opened at a time of the year when
nearly all students had been placed for the
term in some other institution. President
Sawyer is full of hope and enthusiasm.
Indeed his indomitable perseverance, which
enables him to surmount all obstacles and
recognizes no such word as fail in his vo-
cabuiary, would be certain to succeed were
the necessity for such an institution less
pressing. But with the large number OF
pupils who are certain to avail themselves
Of the many advantages offered, and with
the liberal support OF all our best citizens,
who feel just pride in the establishment
of the college, it Is certain to succeed.
Prof. ]. w. Biythcn. graduate of the
Iowa university, and Miss A. v. Smith,
graduate of the Ohio university at Athens,
o., have been added to the faculty. The
small clas ses in the different branch of
studies and the close personal attention
which the professors are consequently be
enabled to give them. will be great al
vantage to the p upils.

WLLAINoUs WGILANTEs.
Attempt TO Hang Man Because he
Was Poor and Out of
Money.

A mob of self constituted vigilantes
elated with the Immunity allowed
them in the case of emasculating q
lecherous tramp, whose punishment,
although barbarous and illegal. was
regarded by all as just, seem to have
usurped the functions of the legal
authorities and have undertaken to
run the town on the code of Judge
Lynch. Last Monday night this mob
seized an unfortunate man named
Daniel Hamlin,, hailing from Boston
Mass, who y as charged with no
crime or offensc other than that he
was out of work and out of money,
put rope around his neck and gave
him couple of hoists on cotton
wood tree. They then asked for his
past history, which he told in such n
simple manner that they concluded to
town. This he did, but being con-
scious of having committed no crime,
he returned the next day to see if he
could recognize his prosecutors. As
they were masked he was unable to
do SO. This is simply an infamous
outrage on an unfortunate man. In
relation to it the Reporter of this city
makes the following serious charge
against our chief.o police:
THAT the policeman was fully cog
nizant of this affair before and at the
time it happened we can substantiate
beyond a doubt, as we have the state
ment OF several men who will affirm
that the above officer came to them on
Monday evening and said, 'Don't go
to bed yet and you will see some fun, Z"
telling them what was going to be
done"
Our city authorities owe 1t to
themselves. and to the fair name and
credit of the citizens whose lives and
property are in the keeping of the po-
lice, to probe this matter TO the bot
tom and let no guilty man escape.
The charge OF the Reporter is direct
and positive. and there is no escaping
the issue.

Generous Act Of BOYS at Rockvale.

Mr.. VIM. Jffaway, who was in en-
ploy of G. G. Coal CO., at Rockvale,
whose death we recently recorded,
depended upon his daily labor for
support of his family. The expense
of his sickness used up their scanty
means. The neighbors assisted them
in every way possible, and a goodly
number turned out on one of the
most Indictment days of the season
TO bring his remains to Canon City
Cemetery for burial. The boys
learning the destitute condition OF
the family, raised his widow a purse
of $160, receiving the heartfelt graft
tude of worthy lady, and the con-
sciousness that their worldly stores
will never be reduced by such kindly,
noble acts.

The parIor Orcne,.ra Concert.

| The Parlor orchestra gave a grand COLI
cert of vocal and Instrumental music on
last Monday evening, to one of the largest
and most fashionable audiences which has
assembled in Blake's Hall to any entertain
, ment this SEASON. 1t was a well deserved
compliment to MIR. Anstett and the gentle
men composing the orchestral. Some of the
best lady amateur vocalists of Canon kind
ly volunteered their services, and largely
aided in making the entertainment grand
success. Each part OIL the programme was
| opened by the orchestra, with Mr.. James
Murphy us first violinist. This gentleman
| is an accomplished musician and used to
lead the orchestra IL. the Royal Adelphi
theatre. London, in the years gone byk 1t
is to be hoped he will more frequently favor
| orr citizens with his delightful accomplish
ment. Mrs. o. Is. Myers solo, "The
Faithful Engineer by p. Z. Bliss.
was very fine and showed that this
lady has very sweet and highly cultivated
voice. The duet, "Beautiful Sea- by Mrs.
| X. S. Lewis and Mrs. H. Earle, was most
charmingly rendered and well received by
the audience. Miss Clara Brewster sang
80, Fair Dove with exquisite taste and
was heartily applauded. The other inter-
esting features of the programme was
Piano solo, 'Storm Rondo,'' by Miss Min
ME Mack, which showed this young lady to
be possessed of high order of musical
talent. She received u storm of well de-
served applause. Mr.. Anstett's cornet so
10 was rendered with fine effect. Last, but
not least by any means, we have to note the
German song, "Schonston Augen," by Mr..
A. Walter. He has fine, full voice, and
although the words were not understood
by most of the audience, yet such is The
power of melody, which is a universal lam
guage, that his singing fairly brought
down the house. Mr.. Walter also played a
violincello solo, .'Thou Art SO Near" ac-
companied by Mrs. PreBtiss ON the piano,
with fine effect. Most of the accompani-
ments were played by Mrs. Prentiss. In
deed 1t may be said that much of the musi-
cal taste and cultivation OF this place is due
to this lady. who is untiring in her efforts
in promoting all our social ard musical en-
tertainments. 1t is gratifying to know that
the Parlor Orchestra concert was grand
success and that it was well deserved.

Mr.. ]. r. Morrison has decided upon a
very appropriate name for his hotel oppo-
site the depot. 1t will hereafter be known
as the Ripley house in honor of the owner
and builder who has added to that part OF
town very substantial Improvement. Mr.
Morrison will keep the house in first
class manner. aud as it has been more than
doubled in size, it will accommodate a
good share of the travel.
New Years day is approaching, and 1t is
time for the young men to be getting their
calling cards ready. 1t is also well for the
ladies to decide whether it is right to tempt
the young men by allowing them to elook
upon the wine when it is red.'' II is con-
sidered the correct thing in best society
now, to offer callers nothing stronger than
coffee, with cake and fruit. ~

Canon's snide Jewelry Crank
Heard from.

The Denver Tribune has the fol-
lowing in dispatch from Leadville /.
A fellow named Lake is wanted
in this place for swindiing. He
came here several days ago and was
a natty looking fellow, wearing good
clothes and profusion of diamonds,
or. as it subsequently proved, things
that looked like diamonds. He tried
to effect loan on one of his rings
and watch, but on examination
both proved to DC frauds of the
deepest dye, and not worth to ex-
cecd twenty-five dollars. He de-
parted when the trick was disccy-
cred, but il has since been learned
that he is the same man who swim.
died the banks in this city, Canon,
Colorado Springs and other localities
with the same game. He has trav-
eled under variety of aliases, and is
known to the police as thoroughly
loud man. Several of his exploits
are located in Denver, where he was
known as Ed Reed"
This is no doubt the fellow who
was brought up with a sharp turn
here couple of weeks ago, and
forced to dis2orge under the very
shadows OF the penitcntiary. A full
account of tho occurrence was
printed in the RECORD and copied in
the Denver papers. 1t was wrong to
let the fellow Off so easily his own
rccognizance for 5000 pursue his
swindling operations elsewhere.

The wallace Sisters.

On Wednesday and Thursday evenings
of this week, Blake's Hall was filed by a
respectable audience to witness two per-
formances, by this company OF accomplished
artists. This is by far the best dramatic
company which has visited Canon City. and
afforded two evenings of real genuine
pleasure and amusement OF the most res.
pectable order. There was nothing what
ever of the cloud" character about the
plays, and it is strong testimony OF the
sterling merits of the company that the
second nights performance was even more
largely attended than the first.
The play on the first night was Jacquette
specially written by Fred Marsden. for
Miss Jennie Wallace, who is the star Of the
company. 1t is romantic play full OF
dramatic situations. 1t is tanglc of love
incidents. Two or three young ladies have
more lovers than they can take care OF.
There is susceptible young English Off
GER; mn aristocratic squire, who Is father
and guar dian to the young ladies'; bad,
wicked old hag of woman. and pirate
and cit-throat villain. OF course the chief
interest centcrcd IN the title role, Jacquctte,
which was taken by Miss Jennie Wallace.
Her acting elected hearty applause, and
showed that she sustained her high rcputa-
tion as an actress. W. +. Horton did the
aristocratic squire to perfection. Walter
Aderian made very handsome officer, but
seemed too conscious Of his good locks and
devoted too much of his attention gazing
among the audience for admiring glaDces.
1t will be better for Walters future in the
profession If he win attend strictly to his
stage duties and quit such foolishncss.
Mrs. Horton as Grizzly Howell, wicked
woman. was immense, and her make up
exccls anything seen on the stage, In her
line, since Charlotte Cushman's Meg Mcr-
rifles. G. Drake's pirate and "bad man,
would iaake Billy the Kid turn green with
envy. Altogether the play was great
success.
on the second night MInnie's Luck wa;
presented. This is n modern society drama
illustrating the ups and downs OF New
York life. The plot Is more einboiatc and
the characters more numerous than fn Jac'
quette. II presents most entertaining
medly of amuzcments and the interest II
maintained to the close. All did well with
the exception Mr.. Aderiar, who seemed tc
lose his voice and his memory towards the
close Of the play. His condition was quits
noticeable and his appearance was the only
mar to what was otherwise most success
full and excellent evenings eutertainment

A petition to the Town Board is
published in another column from
the stock men of this county, in ref
crence to impounding their Stock. AS
this is the only outlet for stock pass

IL does not seem right that cattle and
horses passing through should be
snatched up and pounded. The stock
men plainly intimate their deiermin-

BILE remedy is not applied, and the
RECORD thinks their request is right

of this county is as much entitled to
