THE DIAMOND FIELD.
Interesting Games ina Prospect Tse-
the Salt Lakers, WilIaPds, and
DenVers.

Mr.. Hebe West, the energetic Captain
OF the Salt Lake nine, is undoubtedly the
best organizer and most enterprising
manager of the diamond sports the city
has ever known. At the opening Of the
season not one well-organized club ex-
listed in Salt Lake City. Any quantity Of
good material was on hand, but not in a
harmonious state. 1t became necessary
for some untiring base ball man to take
the lead, and by work and discipline
perfect nine that could meet contest
ants when challenged. At present, this
city has good club, and letter from
Captain Wells, of the Wizards, states
that they will be here Saturday morning
to wax the Salt Lakers, just for a little
exercise. A fine game can be looked for,
which decides the right to the champion
ship OF Utah.
The Denvers, the best club Of Colorado,
will reach here next Tuesday evening,
the 22d instant, and probably remain one
week, during which time series OF five
games will be played. This will prove
the climax in base ball amusements OF
Salt Lake this season, and the same in
terest and encouragement should be ten
dered the management of this enterprise
that is given by all cities in the Union.
The visiting nine will be quartered at the
Gilt House during their stay, and a
pleasant time will be given them.

THE SILENT WITNESS.
Eliza Shafer Accompanies Eliza

Yesterday afternoon the Grand Jury
took up the case OF John W. Shell and
examined Elizabeth Shafer, the princi-
pal and silent witness. She was asked !:
Q.-Have you, within three years last
past, gone through any marriage cere-
mony with John w. Smell as his wife?
Q.-Have you, within three years last
past, at the county OF salt Lake, Terri
tory of Utah, lived and cohabited with
John ". Smell as his wife?
Q.-Haye you, during the past three
years, at said county, lived with him as
his wife as much as one half of each
week?
She was taken out and returned again,
when the Court asked her if Mr.. Smell Or
anyone else had dictated her or advised
her to act in this way.
She replied that she was acting on her
own responsibility.
She was remanded to the custody of
Marshal Ireland along with Elizabeth
Starkey, and taken to the Penitentiary

MONTANA GIRL POLITICIANS.
Representatives of the Sex Who
Make Races for office.

When the girls of Montana turn their
attention to politics, not as voters, but as
candidates, look out for hair and red
hot time, says the Pittsburg Commercial
Gazette. At the last local election in
Montana there were four Richmonds in
the field. These four ladies were running
for County Superintendent of Public In
struction, and, like the other sex, either
as Republicans, Democrats, or Indepen-
dents. That canvass, when the girls took
the stump against their male competitors,
was one of the most amusing things
that ever happened in this or any other
country.
Miss Clark, in Lewis and Clarke county,
is not only talented young lady, but also
an expert politician. By the votes OF the
boys she got there all right, and left her
antagonist far in the rear, daZed and
defeated candidate.
In Meagher county two girls were
pitted against each other, and the fight
for the position was quite lively. Miss
Darcy was the candidate of the unwashed
Democrats, while Miss Nichols mustered
with the Republican boys. In the fight
broomsticks, hairpins, bustles, etc., were
used, and for awile it was beyond the
prophecy OF man to foretell which destruc-
tive weapons would be the most formid-
able and death-dealing. 1t was hard
to tell which one of the young ladies was
the handsomest, but at distance every
body presumed that both were lovely.
Well, everybody voted, as everybody
should, and Miss Darcy won the day, but
her defeated rival claimed, and Justly,
too, that her defeat reflected in no way
personally upon herself, as Meagher
county was, and always lad been, DEM
ocratic.
In Gallatin county Miss Hamilton an
nounced herself as an independent can
didate. One OF the Gallatin county
papers, the organ and backer of Miss
Hamilton, came out day or two before
the election as follows:
Hamilton enters the field against the
odds OF regular party nomination.
Hamilton has got sand, and she will stand
until the polls close Hamilton should
be elected. She says she isn't afraid of
road agents, and that education is her
forte; also, that it would afford her plea
sure to hop around from one country
school-house to another in the perform
ance of her duty. The men of Gallatin
are confounded mean If they don't run
Hamilton in" etc.
Nevertheless, Hamilton was defeated
and Gallatin county has male Superin-
tendent OF Public instruction.
