ROBBING A LADY.
How Two GnIIants Reward Them-
selves for Their Trouble.

1t is very seldom that footpads are
mean enough to attack a lady, but last
evening developed q couple Of these des-
pcable characters, and they have thus
far succeeded in evading arrest. The
victim OF the robbers was Mrs. Simpson,
a lady who keeps a millinery establish
ment on upper Main street.
Mrs. Simpson had gone with her little
children from her home on First West
street to a restaurant opposite the
Walker House for the purpose of getting
dinner. After leaving the restaurant the
lady went south to the Palace Hotel
corner. At this point she slipped on
the ice and fell Two men stepped up
promptly and very CALAMITY assisted her
to her feet. She then thanked
them for their kindness, and they pre-
sumed to ask her if they might accom-
pany her home. She, Of course, told
them no, and they, after apologizing,
dropped behind. The lady went west to
the Metropolitan corner, then north
to the DEMOCRAT corner, and then
west along Second South street. The
men had followed at some distance
behind, and when they reached
the corner across the road west from the
DEMOCRAT, one OF them turned down the
street. The other followed Mrs. Simp-
son few rods beyond the corner
and then grabbed her satchel from
her hand. The lady was holding
her dress out OF the snow with both hands
and had hold OF the hand satchel also,
with one OF them, so that she could make
no resistance. The fellow turned down
an alley in the block and disappeared.
AS Mrs. Simpson was yelled she could
not see the man, but the older of the two
children says that she saw him plainly.
She describes him as being a rather large
man with short sandy beard, wearing
overalls and coat buttoned closely about
him. The little girl says she could
| identify him If she were to see him.
The satchel contained Sill, which Mrs
Simpson had taken with her because she
was afraid to leave it in the house wher
she went out. Fifty dollars of the
amount was in the form of check on
the Eagle Rock, Idaho, bank. Paymen
has been stopped upon the check, botf
in this city and in Eagle Rock, so Their,
is no fear of the thief's realizing the ben
eft OF it.
The robbery occurred shortly after
O'Clock and the police were immediatel.
informed of it, but up to the presen
time no clue to the whereabouts of tn
thieves has been found. 1t is possible
that the man who left at the corner ha,
backed out of the affair, but it seem
more probable that he was an accom-
plice, and that he remained behind t,
facilitate matters by keeping out of TIN
road.

believe the Tithing Office has plenty OF
hay, even an abundance thereof; prob
ably to feed the horses that pull the
vehicles that carry the "anointed OF the
Lord" to the various underground sta
tions.
The funeral OF Charles Louis, the six
year old son OF Chas A. Nelson, the
livery stable man, took place on Saturday
forenoon, sixteen carriages following the
hearse.
Scarlantina is still in the town, am
sorry to say. To the two yellow flags
already planted and reported, third has
been added, at the former residence OF
Chas. +. Middleton First Counselor to
the Stake President), where family by
the name of Pratt resides. 1t is high
time all the sanitary regulations be
strickly enforced, also that the authorities
in the various schools use the utmost
vigilance in preventing the spread of the
dreadful disease, which might decimate
our juvenile cohorts. DIR Powers deserves
great credit for keeping an open eye on
all these sanitary matters.
The Government did wise and good
thing in selecting Mr.. Bierbower, Esq,
formerly Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
for the First District, for aid and assist
ance in the case OF the United States
against Lorin Farr, under indictment foi

and Borrower will make "team" o.

torneys will find it difficult to "buck'
against. They know the ropes, swindles
and other DEVICES of the polygamous

TO.NIGHTs CONCERT.
A treat in store Eor salt Lake Music
Lovers.

The Cheney-Tolme Concert Company,
which appears at the Theatre tonight
and tomorrow night, promises one of the
greatest musical treats that Salt Lake has
enjoyed for some time. From among
their many favorable press notices, the
following is taken from the Laramie
Boomerang of last Thursday;
"The Cheney-Tolmie concert perform
ances given in our city last evening and
this afternoon, were charming. Forest
Cheney is a rare violinist and Robert
Tolmie is magnificent as pianist. Last
evening the audience was delighted
and both the pianist and violinist were
recalled again and again. But Madame
Server fairly took the people by storm.
Pretty, piquant, graceful, winning and
talented, those who looked and listened
could not look and listen enough. The
brightness Of star is claimed for
Madame Server, and well does the lady's
presence merit the claim. She is indeed
a star"

Unnecessary Misery.

Probably as much misery comes from
habitual constipation as from any de-
rangement of the functions OF the body,
and it is difficult to cure, for the reason
that no one likes to take the medicines
usually prescribed. HAMBURG FIGS were
prepared to obviate this difficulty, and
they will be found pleasant to the taste

A NEW TICKET.
IL Will be IA Cold Day when the
Railroads Get Left.

A new ticket, which has been in use by
some Of the Eastern railroads for some
time and which is about to be adopted by
one of the local roads, is the latest proof
OF the fact that the thermometer will
have crawled down considerably below
the zero point when the transport
tation companies get left. The OBJ
ject Of the new ticket is to
make sure that non-transferrable tickets
are used by the buyer and no one else
1t is intimated that commercial men, who
have the advantage of a cheap rate, are
inclined to the practice OF transferring
tickets or buying them for their friends.
The new plan will put an end to this sort
OF business, and will protect the COM
panies in the granting OF commercial and
other favors.
The ticket is like the ordinary paste
board, except that on one end it has sort
OF tabular ear mark, which must be regu-
lated by the selling agent. This consists
OF the following words printed down the
end OF the ticket
Male,
Female,

The Management Of Parties.

The half. breeds, the mugwumps
and other political cranks are making
great ado over the vague, %inplacable
ard dreadful monster they are pleased
to call the "machine' in politics.
They profess to believe that every
man should act independent OF every
other man on every political topic,
and imply, il they do not directly
charge, that every political organiza'
ton is a snare and a delusion. These
fellows are like the old hand spinner'
and weavers of England, who object
ed with such persistent determine

mower loom and spinning jenny into

The Allegan Journal says that "the

In our opinion Minor S. Newell, the

man." And we guess the Journal hits
the nail squarely on the head.

Of the Forthcoming Republican
State ticket, the State Republican
saws. that it "has no candidate in
which it is in the slightest degree
interested, and no ambition to direct
the party nominations. Looking over
the field thus unbiased, it seems to us
that Maj. Minor S. Newell is at pres.
.ent we'll recommended by location,
availability and record. He is a real
and not a merely reputed farmer. He
is a soldier of two wars-the wal with
Mexico and the war for the Union
in each of which he earned by hard
and faithful service an excellent rec
ord. He has all his life been a work
ingman-a w%orkingman at hard man
nal labor-a hired nan for others fol
wears at the hardest kind of labor
His character is OF the highest. Hi;
requirements and abilities are gooo
His location is one of the best. Hi:
record is singularly excellent, and j
is brief; plain and has no Objectionable
points. He is universally esteemed
and he i, not disliked by any factor
or persons. If he should be nomi
mated the probabilities are that tn
Hon. Geo. Starr may be nominated
for State treasurer. His qualification
are also of the best, his location goot
and his popularity undoubted. AM
it is presumsble that the party usag'
will renominate Archibald Buttars 70
