The Independent Voter.

Az the comments of the party papers

elections in all parts of the country be-
gin to come in strange phenomenon
appears In all the cities wherein Re-
publican mayor was elected 1t IS admit
ted by common consent that he owed
his success to boiling Democrats. And
likewise in all the cities wherein DEM
ocratic mayor has been elected 1t IS con-
coded that the result was due to dlssatis-
fed Republicans. Making all allowances
for the tendency OF party organs to ex-
plain defeat by charging defeat, the fact
appears to be that party lines III every
city were broken down t. an extent
never heretofore witnessed, and that the
independent voter carried the day.

There is style of journalism COM
ing into use in many of the Kansas pa
pers, that Is becoming nauseating. lt Is
the habit of abiding to, and quoting
from exchanges, and giving credit, not
to the papers, but to the editors by their
first name. 1t looks as though some of
the younger fry wished to give out the
impression that they are intimate with
every editor in the state. 1t is nothing
but Ralph, or Ed, Old Sol, George,
Marsh or Milt, instead of the Hutchin-
son News, Winfield Courier, Troy Chief,
K. c. Gazette. Wichita Eagle or Geuda
Springs Herald. 1t is on par with,
and about as bad as the Bill Hackney
foolishness that has filled nearly every
Kansas newspaper for two weeks. What
must eastern people think, who neither
know nor care who Bill Hackney is. The
readers of the, Kansas papers know but

Entertainments.

The Georgia Minstrels had good audi
ence last night at the Clunie Opera House,
despite the chilliness of the atmosphere
The company consists of sixteen persons
It has been generally accepted that the
colored men cannot give as good minstrel
performance as whites. The Georgias last
night disipated that idea. Their enter
tainment was a thoroughly good one.
There was yivacity without rudeness, wit
without vulgarity, novelty without extrav-
agance and good musical ability through
out The encores testified to the satisfac-
tor of the auditors. One performer was
recalled four times, another three and two
others twice, and nearly every song had to
be repeated in part. The harmonica soloist
astonished all, and revealed possibilities
for that simple instrument not credited to
it. The quartet is a superior one and
the specialist end men are fully
up TO the best standard. The
performance was chaste throughout and in
many respects new. Kearsands, Jackson
the cornet band introduced especially
strong features. A fine performance will
be given tonight with an entire change of
programme.
The Fun on the Bristol troupe appears
to morrow evening, instead of Saturday az
ternoon, as enormously announced, at the
Opera House. The box sheet opens this
morning without extra charge for resery-
ing seats.
t. J. Clunie, proprietor of the opera
house, was last evening convinced that The
auditorium must be warmed if the house is
to draw full audiences-a conclusion
reached long ago by others. Mr.. Clunie
was so impressed with the necessity that
he last evening authorized friend to at
once act for him in his absence and have
furnace placed beneath the dress circle,
with registers for the circle and the par
quette. and the proper mechanics will this
morning make the measurements and pre-
pare at once to place heater in the build
ing of sufficient capacity to take the chill
from the atmosphere aua make the audito-
rum comfortable. 1t is q bit Of economy
that will meet with prompt return in the
way of augmented patronage.

most two years age, ]. H. Harlan shot and
killed Everett Craft, an only son of the
plaintiffs, in the Byrnes Hotel, in the town
of Woodland. Harlan is man of large
means, and both families were highly con

grew out of an unfortunate love affair be-
tween Mr. Harlan's daughter and the man
whom he killed. Harlan was twice tried
for murder, and on both occasions the bes
legal talent in the State was engaged or
both sides, and the proceedings attracted
the attention of the entire State, the Sac

DAsTARDLY OUTRAGE.
A Defenseiess Woman Forced Into q
Hack by Toughs and Robbed

SAN FRANCISCO, January 23d.-At nearly mid.
night last night Mrs. Jennie B. Singer, German
woman, left her child in bed at Cos Pine street
and went out to supper as she had been in the
habit of doing: AT Bush and Dupont streets she
was seized and dragged into hack and driven
away some distance. The man in the hack
ehoked and robbed her of s25, assisted by the
driver.
After accomplishing the robbery the two men
threw her out of the hack into the street, and
she fell on the sidewalk, injuring her knee.
She had recovered her speech sufficiently by
this time to call for assistance and officer Wells
came to her rescue. She related her story, and
the officer took her to her room
The police investigated the matter and learned
who were the perpetrators OF the outrage, and
this morning, about five O'Clock, they were
arrested and placed in Jail. Their names are
VIM. Mcclure and VIM. Parkinson. The woman's
throa, shows plainly the severity of the choking
to which she had been subjected.

Lawyer Zane Surprises the Supreme
Judges by His Plain Talk.

SALT LAKE, January 23d.-In the contempt
case of United States Marshal Dyer, Receiver OF
the Mormon Church, the Supreme Court to-day
denied the motion to punish him for refusal tc
answer certain questions, but ordered that he
should go before the Examiner when the cues
tons would be repeated to him. The Supreme
Court also clothed the Examiner with the power
necessary TO make an examination into the
charges made against Marshal Dyer of corrup
tion and malfeasance in Office
Judge Zane, who has been pushing the charges
at the instigation OF the School Trustees-who
as benefciaries under the law, are interested in
seeing the Church funds are not FILTERED away
in legal expenses-thereupon gave notice that
he declined to push the case further, stating
that he only had to do with the question OF the
Receiver and if the Court wished the criminal
charges against its own Receiver looked into
the Court should attend to the matter ITSELF
The blunt statement of Judge Zane created
breeze in the Court, as it plainly reflected OF
the supreme Court. The Judges declined Il
hear any comment from other members OF the
bar interested in the case, stating that Judge
Zane's remarks were SO extraordinary that they
desired to consider them without hearing any
argument.
