TILL TAPPED.
The Money Drawer at the Western
Hotel Spirited Away.

On Sunday morning, when George
Bolln, proprietor of the Western Hotel,
opened his Office, he found that some
one had ''peen there when he'd peen
gone," for the money till was missing
from its position underneath the coun-
ter, and whoever had borrowed the till
had neglected to leave its contents be-
hind.
As the office was not closed before l
o'clock that morning, and as Mr. Bolln
reopened it at 6 O'Clock, the theft must
have been committed between the hours
of l and a. m. Sunday morning. The
drawer was forced from its fastenings
and carried away with its contents.
1t was found about three blocks east
in the vacant lots in the real of the
Railroad house, but Of course had been
relieved of its responsibility. The con
tents amounted to about $50, and no
traces of the thief have been found.

Another Added TO the Long List OF
Victims.

There was considerable excitement
rife in the western part of the city on
Sunday, caused by the finding of the
body Of q dead man In an alley near the
Cheyenne barn, and the news quickly
spread along the streets.
A large number of people had gath

coroner notified.
The following jurors were summoned
by Coroner Lee: Messrs. A. s. Emery,

noon when l paid him his wages. He

e. H. Ingalls,, policeman, sworn:
About n o'clock James Talbot told
me that there was a mar lying dead at
the Cheyenne barn, and l went up there.
Don't believe hat l ever saw him be-
fore, th0t is to know him. DIR. Crook
and myself laid him out.
James Talbot sworn: A little before
n O'Clock this afternoon, as 1 "a
standing on the corner of Ferguson
and Sixteenth streets. a colored boy
told me hat there was a man pretty
near dead lying at the Cheyenne barn.
| went right up there and found the
man warm yet. / rubbed and slapped
him for about ten minutes to try and
get breath in him. Mr.. Bean came
along with a team, and he told me to
notify the coroner. On the road l met
E. IL. Ingalls,, and told him. l sent
the boy for the doctor. l may have
seen the man before, but am not posi-
tive. l spoke to two colored ladies who
lived ear by about the man.
Sarah Murphy sworn: 1 saw the
man Gaming up the alley along the new
board fence where l live; l told Nora
to shut the door; l thought he was
crazy; he didn't nave any hat N. Mr..
Talbot came in afterwards and asked
If we did't know there was a man dead
out there.
Nora Hawkins sworn: L opened the
door to throw out some water, when l

drunk. 1 called Sarah to the door, and
when she saw him she told me to shut
the door and lock it. I then went to

Mr. Snithers' Address.

The Town Hall was crowded on
Monday evening to hear Hon. y. b.
Smithers and Geo. V. Massey Esq,
who had been announced for political
addresses on that evening. DIR. Collins,
the Chairman, introduced Mr.. Smithers
at s o'clock to the audience, who
greeted him WARMLY, as a Smyrna
audience always do. He was in his
best trim, and spoke for two hours and
twenty-five minutes in what is consid-
cred the best speech perhaps he ever
delivered in the town, in some parts,
especially those on the abstract quest
ions of the rights and wrongs of citizen
ship, rising to high grade of Oratory.
The key he struck in opening his
address was that of the vocative mood,
which he held all the way through,
addressing himself to the more tender,
inner conscience of his hearers. He
had nothing to say of party politics
but confined himself to the genius of
citizenship as conferred by our institu-
! tions, and characterised those measures
and laws that sought to contravene
individual rights, in language of the
strongest disapprObatiOn.
He showed wherein the rights of
citizenship inhercd, that one man in
his legal and political rights was the
equal of any other man, and the person
who by force or fraud, by legislative
enactment rpolitical trickery attempt
ed to deprive him of the privilege of
of the ballot, was not good citizen.
When men sought by means that were
fraudulent to prevent free express
sion of citizenship at the ballot box,
they were striking a dangerous blow at
the very foundation Of Democratic
government.
lie noted how the Wing party failed
to come up to the measures of theiI
responsibility in the encroachments o.
the slave power, how the latter were
binding the chains tighter and tighter
while the former had not the courage
to do what their consciences dictated
and how through the direction o
Providence new leader through n sef
of blood that was redder than the Rec
sea, led the nation and the race in the
direction intended they should go.
The danger to the nation through
the corruption of the ballot is wha
now confronts the patriotic citizen
; This corruption is asserting itself no
only in the purchase of voters by tn,

two or three times, IS the best public
speaker that Wilmington can boast of.
He has good clear voice, and he uses
good sound argument logically formula

of his elOquence. Mr. Chas. Lore is a
good speaker, and in fact none are bet
/ ter for making an Off hand speech. hut
in his studied efforts there is not the
/ same amount of energy and fire. Mr..
/ Bird has a great influence over an
audience, his pleasing address. his clear
cogent statements are powerful. and he
seldom fails to impress those before him
with his convictions. Mr.. Patterson is
a speaker of considerable power, he
instructs his hearers as well as enter
tains them with his beautiful senti-
ments. Mr.. Richard Harrington is a
bold, decisive, demonstrativc orator
and for reaching the ear of all classes o
people upon political questions, we dc
not know of any speaker that car
equal him. Mr.. Bradford made a gooC
sensible speech a short time ago in the
Opera House. He is an easy, graceful
fluent talker, and analyses his subjec
with the judgement Of one who ha
perfectly mastered the question at issu,
in all of its details. Mr.. IIasting
speaks very well for one whose train

THE uprising in cities against the
bosses is the order of the day. When
we go as far north as Boston, says the
Baltimore Sun, and study its municipal
politics for many years back, we find
that while generally republican, it has
had independence enough more than
once to repudiate ring dictation. New
York is now in revolt, and has put a
citizens ticket in the field against Tam
many, with Mr.. Allan Campbell for
mayor. Brooklyn, by a union of demo-
cratic and republican voters, succeeded
not long ago in electing a mayor who
has distinguished himself already by
conducting the business of his Office on
business principles. Philadelphia led
the way in a combination of the best
men of both parties to rid the city OF
the clique that parceled out the Offices
and grew rich on public plunder. The
successful issue of the municipal cleo
tiOns in Philadelphia and Brooklyn
has given them well-governed cities
In Baltimore there is fight for non
partisan judiciary, honest methods
honest men and a free ballot.

ONE week more ends the political
contest and gives blessed respite for
two years. Political contests some
times grade up, as when people are
moved by common impulse for the
safety of the nation, but this year
things have been on the down grade
decidedly. The leaders are looking
for their own, instead of the good of
State through the mass of the people,
and all of the "ornriness' that it has
been possible to crowded into the cam
paign and down the peoples throats
has been done. 1t may be that a
climax must be reached before it can
be remedied; if so, it looks as if we
had nearly reached it.
