EX.REGISTER McMASTER'S CASE.
He Is Left I'm the Dark Regarding
the Action of senator WRlthai.

The announcement which came over
the wires from Washington Monday night
that Senator Walthal, of Mississippi, had
asked for the papers in the matter OF the
suspension of Mr.. II. McNlaster, cx-Land
Register for Utah, occasioned not little
surprise in Salt Lake, as it had been very
generally understood that Mr.. McNIaster
had made no effort whatever to be re-
tanned in office. A reporter met the eN-
Register yesterday afternoon, and re-
marked:
81 see they are looking into your sue
cessor's appointment, according to the
dispatches. DO you know anything about
it, MIR. McMaster?'
"No; not word" was the reply. az
had not heard u syllable in connection
with it till read the press dispatch this
morning."
"Do you think any of your friends are
interposing, back East, in the matter?"
mo; am confident they are not; for
| wrote back sometime before the new
appointment was made requesting that
nothing be said or done looking to my
being retained in office. OF course felt
that there was no dishonor in quitting
my position under the circumstances OF a
radical change OF administration. Had
there been any charges against me, or
even the least dissatisfaction, to occasion
my removal, | should have taken stand
and made good fight, you may be as
snred; but as it was, l was contented TO
let things take their natural course"
"Have you any idea rs to what in
fluence is ut the back of Senator Walthal' g
action?"
"None whatever; and the most
astonishing thing in the whole affair is
that Democratic Senator should cham
pion my cause. | really am Mt loss to
even surmise the cause OF the incident,
and shall await in rs much ignorance rs
anyone the receipt OF light on the sub
ject."

AN ATTRACTIVE MINSTREL SHOW
The McNish, johnson a Slnvin
Troupe Present Bright
Entertut I'M ent.

A crowded auditorium and packed gal
leries again attestcd the popularity which
the minstrel form OF entertainment has
reached in Salt Lake, and II better recep-
ton or more enthusiastic class OF peo-
Pile than were present ut the Salt Lake
Theatre last night, it has never been
the fortune OF McNish, Johnson & Slavin's
Minstrels to meet.
1t is only fair words for the company
to say that all the success they acquire
they deserve, for n better entertainment
in the minstrel line would be hard to find,
nothing lacking in the composition OF
three hours enjoyment, and the perform
ancc, unlike many OF the travelling com
panies, being devoid OF everything which
might be Objectionable to the sensitive
mind.
The orchestra is q notable feature of
the show, and in some OF the ballads,
the average minstrel vocalists, the ac-
compartments are exquisite i inc and
harmony.
Some OF the jokes are new, some are
old, but all seem to catch, and are pro-
ductive OF the greatest laughter. Slavin
is one OF the best OF comedians in his
eccentric line, and Rice, in his burlesque
of "Esmeralda" is something immense.
The usual popular drill feature, "The
Black Hussars," is piece OF pretty work,
and the united clog dance generally calls
for repetition. Frank McNish gives an
act OF his own, and it may be remarked
that it is his exclusively, for no imi tator
has yet reached his perfection.
The novel part OF the programme, and
a part eagerly looked for, was the repre-
sentation of statuary by Charles w.
Mitchell, the champion English athlete
and sparrer, and the fine artistic effect Oh
Mitchell's form in classic posing called
out much applause. His last pose
"Charles w. Mtchell-Champion oi
England"-in which he puts himself in
ring position--made the galleries vel
with delight.
The company play again tonight ant
tomorrow night, and as they afford
hearty enjoyment to all with otlense t.
none, their engagement will be success
