A STREET COMEDY.
Two Boys, Mule, a Barrel Of Flour and
an Old Cart Perform.

an Old Cart Perform.
Special Correspondence EVENING JOURNAL
uEGRGETOwN. April 3.-A very small
old mule, very dilapidated old cart. and
two over-grown youths in the the hohhle-
dehoy state Of existence, and barrel Of
hour made the basis Of quite an amusing
episode the other morning.
Market street merchant havinr sold
barrel Of -four, sought the mosf con-
venient mode of having II transferred tn
the purchasers house. Seeing the before
mentioned caravan he called to the
youths and after r short parley with
them the barrel was placed in the cart
and the little old mule slsepily logged on
his way.
Suddenly some part Of the harness
broke and the shafts dropped at the ami
mails feet, frightening him so much
that he lost his gentle composure, and
started of at brisk trot. When the
shafts dropped, the cart tilted forward
as also did the barrel of hour. Seeing
the barrel in very precarioue position,
one Of the young men bravely Jumped
astrlde IT, in the endeavor TO save the
Hour from ruin, and the small mule from
sudden destruction. However the mule
was equal to the emergency. for when.
despite the efforts Of the youth. the
barrel Of Hour fell, he proceeded.
after the manner OF his kind.
to kick every thing within reach of his
heels. The young man gently rolled from
the mule and laid quiet In a soft bed rf
mud. But the -four It 'riz" la the q
then descended in heavy clouds upon tho
mule and the young man ia the mud,
almost obliterating them from the gaze
Of the passers-by The purchaser of the
-four, armed with a half-bushel measure
and the merchant with SCOOP and wheel
barrow, made their way to the scene Of
the disaster to gather up the
fragments, which they did, encouraged
by the audible smiles Of the crowd
which by this time had collected. It
might be reasonably supposed that by
this time the small mule had regained
his usual color Of dirty brown. but the
youth is still engaged In removing mud
and Hour from his wearing apparel.
II is rumored that p. j. Hart, formerly
Of this town, but now Of Milton, will be
Democratic candidate for the nomina-
tion Of sheriff In the coming elections.
Mr.. Hart has many warm friends in both.
parties, and it is thought, should he be
nominated, he would be elected without
difnculty.
'A'Dr. Irwin McColley has been appointed
the physician Of the almshouse in place
Of DR.. Q. A. Richards. who has filed the
position for more than twenty years.
Although there were a number Of applh-
cants for the position Of overseer Hiram
Short, the present overseer, was retained.
because Of his good Judgment and capa-
bility.
A. S. Morris, foreman Of the Delaware

lucrative one in Philadelphia. He, with
his family will shortly move to that

He Protests Against the Odious Mark Of
har on the Young stats's Ksomtcheon.
The Montana contested election case
was taken up as Unfinished business.
yesterday, and Mr.. Gray resumed his ar
gument In support Of the claim of the
two Democratic claimants, Clark and
Maginniss. The burden Of his argument
was against the throwing out of ia
votes cast in precinct "a Of Silver Bow
county. On what ground, he asked, had
these ia American citizens been disfran-
chised and their votes thrown ont,
trampled under foot, despised and re-
jectedG Il had not been claimed that
single one Of the votes had been illegal.
The regularity or legality Of single
vote had not been attempted to be inn
peached but the votes had been thrown
out on several technical grounds.
He appealed TO the Senate, and to
senator's individually in the name of
of fairness, honesty and straightforward
dealing whether they could conscien-
tiously vote to seat two men as United
States Senators when to do SO they were
obliged 20 trample under foot and to
throw out as unworthy Of being counted
the votes of ia electors on
such grounds The vote for
the resolutions Of the majority
would be, he said, to violate all the most
sacred traditions Of American history and
American liberty. He protested against.
putting the odious mark of bar sinister
on the state Of Montana thus early in her
career. Il would never be forgotten. if tho.
resolutions of the majority were adopted,
that her birth had been tainted by fraud
that in order TO give her representation
in the Senate portion OF her citizens
had been denied the equal privileges Of
their fellow citizens. and their votes
ruthlessly thrown aside as unworthy Of
being counted. He trusted that no such
stain would be put upon her.
At the close Of Mr.. Grays speech a
technical discussion on point of law in
volved in the question was carried on
between Mr.. .Hoar on the one side and
Messrs Gray and George on the other
side. Finally the matter went over until
Monday, when Mr.. Vance will speak in
support of the minority resolutions,

lheIt - an lutIttitt OF HNc nuuuItu IN tne
Prohibition vote, which, considering the
size OF the state and former strength Of the

litical connections when given the uppor-

Later Report.
A later report states that the official count
in Newport revealed the fact that there was
no election for first representative, as well
as none for fourth. This makes twenty
