MUNICIPAL SUFFRAGE FOR WOMEN IN
KANSAS.

KANSAS.
In the Women's Journal Mrs. M.
Johns, of Salina, Kansas, thus presents
some facts:
Most opposers of the Acknowledgement OF
women find their prejudices melt like frost
in the sunshins before the actual presence
of women at the polls--exCept when said
opposers happen to be candidates mot IN
favor with women. I0bserve chat aspirants
for office who were defeated by women's
votes have nothing good to say for munich
pal woman suffrage in Kansas. / have found
in my own city, each year after each elec-
tion men who had prior to that time op-
posed woman's ballot defending the princi-
pie Of woman suffrage because of the digni-
fed, earnest, effective and altogether
womanly work Of women in the elections.
The facts of Kansas elections are the best
defense Of Kansas women as voters; and our
homes, where wifsly affection and motherly
tenderness reign, and our intelligent, wide
awake and good women, are themselves the
best evidence of the true womanliness left
TO the Kansas women even after their FIVE
years experience in municipal politics.
The Boston Transcript, having an op-
portunity to know how much angered
Republican politicians of Topeka and in
other places In Kansas were over some
of the results of the late municipal cleo
tions, gives this admonition:
Il is not very likely that any man or par
ty would have the hsrdihood to talk serious
ly of repeating municipal woman suffrage.
Only TO talk of disfranchising so powerful
and determined a contingent would be
political suicide for the proposers.
Mrs. Lucy Stone, commenting on the
foregoing quotation, reports the follow
ing:
No doubt Kansas women had good rea-
SONS for voting as they did. In one case
when there were two candidates for mayor,
the women voted for a sober Democrat in
stead Of Republican who was wife-beat-
or, besides being Incorporate. Wife-beaters
who are seeking Office will stand no chance
in Kansas for even the worst women will
mot vote for them. But every time the de-
feated candidates will be "agin the women"

THE CHAMBER CONCERTS.
The Kneisel Quartette Greeted by a
Large Audience.

The Kneisel Quartette Greeted by q
Large Audience.
The first of the Yale university cham
Der concerts was held last night at North
Sheffield hall. The hall was crowded and
the series promises to be as much of q
success as that of last season. The we'll
known "Kneisel Quartette" rendered
selections from Mozart, Tschaikowski and
Schumann. The quartette is composed
this year of the following violinists:
Messrs. Franz Kneisel, Otto Roth, G..
Svecenski and Alvin Schroeder.
The andante movement from Mozart,
which was quartette in G major, (No. 81,
was peculiarly beautiful-a masterpiece of
somber tone shading. AS contrast to
this the next was menuetto movement
and was rendered in q spirited manner.
The selection from Tschaikowski-
quartette in d major, was well chosen
one. This composer is one of the modern
school and until late years but few of his
works have been well known. A burst of
enthusiastic and prolonged applause fol-
lowed the rendition of this piece, but Pro-
fessor Kneisel refused the encore. The
selections from Schumann opened with an
allegro movement, which was brilliantly
rendered. Perhaps the most satisfying to
lovers of classical music was the third
movement, schorzo, judging from the ap-
plause it received, though it was some
what difficult to follow the motif through
the soft labarynth of soft harmonies.
Taken as whole the concert was q
brilliant success and the Kneisel quartette
showed themselves the same well-balanced
company as of old.
The second concert of the series will be
given December by the Beethoven quar-
tette, and after that they will be given
about once fortnight.

YALE.AMHERST GAME.

A Spirltless Game-McClunga and 9th
er Players Absent-Water in Pools
on the Ground.
The weather was not made to order for
the football game between Yale and Am
herst at the field yesterday. Water stood
in pools over the ground and during the
game more or less rain fell. Yale played
substitutes mostly, but this and the con-
dition of the weather are not sufficient ex-
cuses for the spiritless game put up. Hef
fe6nger, McClung and Hinckey, with
"Kid" Wallace and Bull, were away to see
the Harvard-Trinity game at Hartford and
L. Bliss and Mccormick were hurt early in
the game. Winters and S. Morrison played
we'll and Richards, although little I'M
even, did some capital kicking-making a
goal from the feld-and great tackle
which prevented Amherst from scoring
For Amherst, Lewis and Jackson played
like veterans. In fact, the whole nine put
up plucky, spirited game. Twice the
bail was carried past all of Yale's line
except the halfback. Amherst started
off with the ball and gained few
yards with the V. The bal, however, was
lost to Yale on four downs and rushed by
Morrison and c. D. Bliss across the line.
No goal was kicked. Time, two minutes
The half closed without noticeable features
with a score of II to in favor of the blue.
In the second half Yale started off with
squirt and Bliss made touchdown in two
minutes, from which no goal was kicked.
In three minutes another goal was made
from which Richards kicked a goal.
Jackson got the ball from Amherst and
got by all except the back. The
chances for a touchdown looked very
bright, and he had reached Yale's fifteen
yard line when he was tackled by Richards
jackson again rushed the ball, bringing it
to Yale's three yard line on the first down
This was the exciting part of the game,
and the spectators were on tip-toe with ex-
element, but Amherst lost the ball to
Yale on four downs, and the ball was
rushed to Amherst's end. Score at the
close, 30 to 0.

DARING ROBBERY.

The Highvvood Postofnce Safe Blown
to Pieces-Over Six Hundred Dollars
Secured.
A daring robbery was committed yester-
day morning on the outskirts of this city.
The postofice at Highwood, Hamden, was
broken open and the contents of the safe
stolen. The robbers are believed to be
the same gang which has been operating in
this section for many months. They eff
fected an entrance by prying open the
window Of the building. Gunpowder was
used in opening the safe and the concus-
sion was SO great that the door of the safe
was blown through the side of the build
ing while the interior of the Office was
completely wrecked. The windows were
blown out and the door forced from its
hinges. John w. Burbridge, hickman,
who was getting home about 2:30 a. m.
saw two men standing in front of the
building just before the explosion occurred
and just after it occurred they rushed in
and secured the booty and ran off. The
noise the explosion was deadened greatly
by the noise of heavy freight train which
was passing near the depot at the time.
Burbridge aroused Postmaster Miller and
the neighbors and on looking over the
losses it was found that six hundred dol
lars in money apd stamps and two watches
were missing.

ssWest Haven JUSTICE, Again.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Perhaps enough has already been said
on the subject of the arrest and fining of
the several wheelmen in the suburbs of
West Haven on Sunday last, but since Mr..
S. J. Bryant has seen fit to reply to my
former structures in the matter, beg leave
to submit a few words additional. The
writer has no personal interest in the af-
fair farther than desire to see the fullest
justice done to all parties concerned.
But, "from all the published accounts
and from the testimony of several eye
witnesses, fail to see, in the arrest and
mulcting of those wheelemen, just where
the justice part comes in. The several
eye witnesses of the arrest, one of whom
has given the writer his version of the af-
fair, were unanimous in the opinion that
it was a most outrageous proceeding, and
that the term "oficial highwaymen'' was
none to severe to apply to the borough
functionaries who, with charming dignity,
opportune moment arrived, boldly stepped
forth from their place of concealment and
commanded the surprised wheelmen
to ''throw up their hands," or
words to the same effect, in true
frontier highwayman style. All the diff
ference that appeared to exist between the
two classes of highwaymen is that the one
party acts under the guise of claw and
order" and the other don't.
Now, to be brief, would like to ask
Mr.. Bryant, or anyone whom he cham
pions, if theresa really such a thing as a
sidewalk along the brush roads back of
Savin Rock, where this affair took place9
Has the town of Orange or the borough of
West Haven ever expended any money in
making such sidewalks at that point? If
not, then claim that the arrest was an
illegal proceeding, and if brought up as
test case by the "league lawyer" I think;
that the public authorities of West Haven.
would find themselves in a very unp1eas-
ant CORNER" With as much propriety it
might be claimed that there were side
walks along all the country roads leading
to New York city.
The public at large fully appreciate the
desire of the citizens of West Haven to be
protected from the intrusion and indigni-
ties of drunken rowdies, both on the Sab
bath and on every day of the week; but
these wheelmen were not rowdies, but gen.
tlemen, returning from pleasure spin to
Bridgeport, minding their own business
and disturbing no one, and as such were
entitled to respectful consideration. That,
by spinning their wheels along the sheep
paths in the neighborhood of Savin Rock,
they were trespassing against any borough
law they had not the slightest idea.
And so, in conclusion, would say that
I only voice the sentiment of many good
citizens in pronouncing the whole proceed
ing as travesty on justice, of which those
who had any hand in it ought to feel
ashamed. p.

The House Meets In Hartford and
Adjourms Until Ntnety-Two to
Await the Action of the Supreme
Court in the Ono Warranto Cases.
HARTFORD, Nov. n.-tSpecial)-After
somewhat lengthy absence from legislative
duties and discussions, the members of the
house of representatives. met at the eapi-
toll this afternoon at p M, and twenty
minutes later adjourned until January Q,
at p. m. Speaker Paige had no sooner
called the house to order than Representa-
tive Greene of Norwich was on his feet
with motion to adjourn until January 6,
as had been prearranged at the caucus held
short time before the house reconvened.
This motion brought Representative Walk
er (dem) of Waterbury to his feet in oppo-
sition, he being of the opinion that long
adjournment was uncalled for, as he con-
sidered that it was plainly the duty of the
house to install the rightfully elected
democratic officers. That could be done
by adjourning until tomorrow. Messrs.
Walker (dem.) of Hartford, Callahan
(dem.) of New Haven, also favored a short
adjournment until tomorrow, but the
question was called for, and on an aye and
nay vote resulted in the passage of the
| motion to adjourn until January by vote
of 1879 to 1906
The only exciting issue of the day was
| when Mr.. Buckley (rep.) Of Fairfield re-
fused to vote with the republicans and
cast his ballot with the democratic side of
| the house, saying that he considered all
| the democratic officers except Morris fairly
elected.
Mr.. Buckeyes withdrawal from the re-
publican ranks brought forth loud applause
| from the democrats present.
The fact that the house adjourned in
| stead of again taking a recess, and thus
finishing the second day of the session,
| caused considerable surprise on the part of
| the democrats, who deem it a republican
| trick to cheat them out of the governor nc
matter what the courts may decide. They
consider that by taking an adjournment
they thus close the second day, which, IN
| der the constitution, is the day on which
the general assembly must declare the state
officers as elected, or lose the chance OF
doing SO.
| Representative Judson rep of Stratford
says, however, that the adjournment makes
no difference in this respect, as the word.
ing of this article of the constitution is moi
mandatory, but directory, and they may
declare the officers properly elected, ever
| if not on the second day of the session.
