At Stewards headquarters.

The scene at Stewards head
quarters last evening was a very
animated one. About nine 0 clock
the dispatches that came in from
all parts of the State indicated a
Republican sweep of the Legisla-
tive ticket. TIE room was crowded
with the old staunch Republic ms
coDgratulating Stewart on his c.
tory. Joe Goodman was down
from Virginia City stretched out on
a lounge and trying to get a little
rest after his hard work in Storey
county where he has been rustling
night and day for his old friend
Stewart.
As the showing under Of Adams
became more and more apperant
and the pillng up Of the Republi-
can Legislative majorities came in
there was regular old fashion
scene of Republican hilarity.
Nearly every dispatch that
reached the headquarters indicated
a Republican majority and the
goose hung higher and higher as
the night wore on.

| Yesterday was a delightful dal
for the voting population. This
sun rose on a clear sky and the ali
was soft and balmy.
Then again everybody was il The
best Of humor except the few
chronic dislurbers WHO always fee
like blowing off steam on election
morning. The Mlcwumps seemed
rather out of SORTS because they
had been allowed ali the extra
clerks and election inspectors they
wanted.
They ha.. counted strongly on
having theirrequestrefuseG and had
this been the ease they would have
taken occasion to have made a gen
eral row and played the old SYM
patty dodge. The fact that they
had nothing whatever to kick
about made them feel especially
sore all day and now and then they
trieGto make trouble but the Sheriff
and his deputies presented firm
official front and any dispute to
make trouble vas quickly sup
pressed.
Occasionally men who stood near
the 100 foot rope guard booted
at we'll known Republicans who
went up to vote, but as this kind Of
rowdyish work only helped 70 make
votes for the Republican ticket,
it was not in terferea With.
The ball opened at s o'cloc! in
the morning with 4 body of Repub
licans going up 20 the polls and de
posting their ballots straight tax
ing them off the open pile.
VIM. Hy. Doane was the first
man TO deposi, his ballot and Chas.
Stoddard next. Abou. twenty
straight Republican tickets went
in this way before any folded bal
lot was voted,
INTERNAL WAR.
About the FIRST overt political
act, Of course came from the I'M
lec:ic Muswumps who following
blandly the advice Of the Garrard
managers, began to send the knife
into Adams by swapping two votes
against Adams for one Mugwump
vote. This admission of weakness
began to send concentration all
along the line, and the Mugwump
following who had been brsced
up BY the assurance Ct success be-
gan to waver. The Adams mana
gers hearing Of the trade promptly
retaliated with emocratlc State
tickets printed all along with Re
publican county tickets and it was
cut and slash, give and take all
along the list.
The Garrard managers soon saw
their mistake but it was too late
and the Albums cutlass rose and
fell all day, knocking and slashing
the poor Mugwump ticket right
and left.
ADAMS CALLED TO STOREY.
About noon Adams got a dis
patch from Storey, that the sack was
10 the field against him, and secur-
ing the fastest team that he could |
yet he started for Virginia City by |
.he States Prison road lashing his
horses into dead gallop.
WE WIN AGAIN. |
At about noon the Mugwump
managers threw up the fight.
When the count opened at
o'clock it did not take long to see
hat Stevenson had beaten Adams
IOO it, Carson precinct and ~ in
Empire. This is fair criterion of
he ticket. The Republicans will
elect every man on their ticket By |
rom SO to $50 majority.

FOULLY MURDERED.
A Little Girl the Victim of an Atrocious
Crime.

NEW HAVEN, Feb. 2O.-Clara jennings the thir-
teen-year-old daughter of George n. Jennings, a
wealthy merchant of Southport, was the victim of
a brutal assault on Wednesday last. In broad
daylight, when the little girl was on her way to
the Southport school. man who partially
intoxicated staggered up TO her, and before she
could get beyond his reach grabbed her in his
if any one was approaching in answer to the
childs cries, and for moment relaxed his grasp
OF her She gave q jump at the same moment and
fed down the main street of the town in the di-
Her asSailant fed. When Clara reached her
father she fell in faint and was unaSleo articu-
most eminent physicians failed to restore her TO
consciousness and she died last night.
Because OF her inability to give any infOrma-
ton concerning the assault the local authorities
have had difficulty in tracing the criminal. They
have suspicious of hOstler in the village, but
not sufficient TO have him arrested. When Clara
but, dreadlng similar treatment, fled for their
lives People noticed their flight through the
street, but did not suspect the cause.
Mr.. Jennings heard about these three children
having witnessed the assault, and subseq emily
questioned them. One of the trio described a
man who answered very much 10 the description
of the hostler who is suspected. She has had the
hostler pointed out 10 her, and confirmed her
description OF him by saying that he was the as
sailant. The other two children who were with
her at the time differ with her as to the hosters
connection with the crime, and, having seen that
individual, have told Claras father that he is not
the man.
One other theory which the officials have par
tally chung to, especially since there seems to be
a poor chance OF fastening the crime on the hos
tier, is that a sailor is the guilty man. The day
that Clara was assaulted vessel moored to
the dock at Southport and some of her crew, ac-
cOrding to the statements OF those who have been
examined, wandered through the town. Detec-
cured to hunt for the criminal and it is probable
that he Will be lynched II found.

common Master shall Judge me according TO
what have spoken"
The congregation were amazed when the
organ sent forth the strains Of the hymn,
apparently without the assistance of hui
man hands, and they were astonished and
vet relieved to hear their pastors story. At
the conclusion of the sermon all, with the
exception of Jacob Dodge, went forward and
expressed increased confidence in the up
rightness of his life and in the
pg6 purity had of f.,l bis intentions ns ia;
his teeth audibly as he went from the doors
of the church which he has never since en-
tered. With the meanness which was the
predominant trait in his character he had in
formed himself OF the past life of the pastor
to intimidate him into opposition to the
almost unanimous wishes OF the c0ngrega-
ton.
A few days later Alice Barnett received a
call from the minister's wife, and was'great-
ly surprised when that most worthy woman
said that she had confession to make.
Her husband, she said, had asserted that it
would take a miracle to restore his faith,
and the thought had occurred to her that she
could enter the door at the rear of the
church without being seen. The organ was
very near the door and although she went
with fear and trembling she reached the
organist's seat without detection and when
there, owing to the box-like struction around
it, she was secure from observation. But
the deception lay rather heavy on her heart
and she felt that it would be relief to tell
it TO her friend, and that friend, it may be
said felt it a relief to have it told. If the
good man who was the object of this
solicitude reads this bit of history he is
too much of a Christian now to have his
faith shaken.
The Christian Church at Stanhope is not
dead. All of its three hundred members
say so and the Methodists and Presbyterians
and Baptists join in the chorus. If so num-
erous and respectable a portion of the
community say so, why should ordinary sim
ners doubt. 1t is happy state of affairs
and the organ is the cause of it all.
