CLARK AND BRACKET, Jan. 8.
Editors EVENING LIGHT: .u
A large hunting party left Clark on
the 5th inst, headed by Gen. Stanley.
Lieut.. Lester, 9Th cavalry, and Jones,
22nd infantry, were members of the de.
tachment.
! The blind goddess favored Mr.. Nor.
MS Jacobs, and permitted him to win
fine piano, the first prize of a S. A.
lottery.
Rumor says that Gen. Sheridan has
recommended that a tap road be con-
structed from the railroad crossing at
Deloras, to Clark. ~
The order enforcing an hour and a
half drill, from to ago O'Clock p. M,
daily, and requiring all to attend, is be-
ing strictly carried out. The boys love
to drill, however, and by the prompt
ness which they exhibit in falling in.
and bracing up. it is evident they APP
preciate the exhilarating recreation.
On the night of the 9th inst, "Mir-
aida" was again enacted at the post
hall, by the amateur dramatic society.
Being amateurs, they should not be
publicly criticised. The rule in carving
holds good as to criticism never use

Turner Hall.

The Rice 'Evangeline and SANKEY'S extrav-
aganza combination commenced brief en-
gasement here by the reproduction Of Evan
geline at Turner hall last evening, Those
who have heard the opera boufe will not have
very good opinion of its merits, and yet it is
worked so well that it becomes very inter-
esting and amusing entertainment.
Miss Hattie Richardson was "Evangelne,"
and in that character she sang pleasingly and
danced very well. Miss Jennie Wethersby
appeared as "Gabiel," and was fair repre-
sentative Of the character, but she apparently
lacked that Chic" so necessary for popular
representation Mr.. F. Turner made up well
~ Catherine" and, with the exception Of his
voice, managed the female character exceed
inely well. ..,
OF the male characters that of Mr.. ]. Har-
ris' clone Fisherman" was decidedly the best.
1t Is about the finest piece of characteristic
acting we have seen for q long time, if we ex.
cept Widow Bedott. His facial display and
pantomimic action are 50 expressive that they
need no words to convey his meaning and his
quaint humor made him the life Of the piece
and the idol Of the boys who roared with laugh
ter and vented their enthusiasm in excessive
applause. His eccentric dancing was also
par ezcelence. Mr., CA. Burke's "Le Blanc"
was an excellent piece of low comedy some
what exaggerated, and the "Captain Dietrich"
of Mr.. c. Sturges was commendable. The
remaining members of the company were
fairly caste, but were not above the ordinary
calibre.
Having regard to the threatening aspect Of
the weather and the muddy state of our roads
the attendance was very large, negotiating the
Times view Of the Howard management, and
there can be little doubt that the audience re-
.iusd well pleased with The entertainment

Alderman Story says he wants to have
the streets improved in the second ward,
which is good idea. Now the first thing the
captain will do will be- to offer resolution to

derman to have public street fenced in and
barn built upon it.

ALDERMANIC ELECTION.

| ALDERMANIC ELECTION.
Yesterdays election was a damper
upon our city.
The entire absence of interest, ex-
cept with the little hatchet-grinders,
was evidence of the loss of public in
terest in our city affairs.
The successful candidates owe their
election to either their own personal
efforts or the efforts of the city admin.
istration party in their behalf.
In the first ward the defeat of Judge
Rosenheimer is due directly to the in
fluence of the administration party.
The call for Judge Rosenheimer was
made jointly with Major Dwyer, and
but for the Intervention of the mayors
party in securing a "throw-off," and
another combination by bringing out
Mr.. Arnaud, Judge Rosenheimer
would have been elected. The contest
in the first ward seemed to absorb the
attention of the politicians, and some
very prominent gentlemen were on
hand to give countenance to the effort
to defeat Judge Rosenheimer, who was
denounced as politician by the "or-
gan'-while Major Dryer was APP
plauded as candidate free from such
objection.
In the second ward the voters allow
ed themselves to be bulldozed to start
with, and after Captain Story was an
nounced, and it was understood he
had the support Of certain influential
citizens, no one could be found who
would make the race; 100 votes out of
a voting strength of at least 100, were
polled, and to Capt. Story's efforts
is due even this vote, as he
urged his acquaintance to give him
a complimentary vote. In the Third
ward Major Minter galloped around in
1852. distancing G. Leek. One hum
dred and fifty-two votes out Of goo.
In the Fourth ward there was good
display of ambition, and the race was
run by Mr.. Pauly and Mr.. Copeland.
More than one half the vote was cast.
The two favorites. Sartor and Groos,
were badly beaten.
This election proves one thing, and
ought to serve as lesson to our
citizens-that is, that the day is
gone by when a man, even
if his name was George Washington,
Thomas Jefferson, or Bismarck, can be
elected dog pelter if he sits back on his
dignity and takes no interest in the
election. :
In fact, the day has passed when a
man will be asked to run for an office
unless he seeks it.
The day has come when our city and
county will be run by professionals, I'M
less every citizen becomes an active
politician and takes an earnest interest
and part in every detail of the exercise
Of the franchise.
The false modesty and the false pride
that pertains among intelligent citizens
is simply disgusting.
The new aldermen have fairly won
their places, and now they are on trial
before the public, and we shall take
pleasure in noting their excellent traits,
and we shall also hold up their short
comings to the community.
