Another Robbery.

Last night about S o'clock, j. Rosen-
otum, a tailor and repairer, who keeps a
shop at No. 1l3 West Houston street,
closed his place of business and repaired
to his home. This morning about :
o'clock, when he entered the store room,
he learned from the appearance of his
stock, that he had been robbed. Upon
investigation, he found that some one
had attempted 10 burn his store and con-
tents.
1t seems as though the intruder had en-
tered some time during the night, through
a window in the rear, robbed the place of
several watches, coats, pants and other
valuable articles, and then set fire to a
pile of rubbish which was lying in the
rear of the room, next to the wall. The
blaze was not large one, evidently, or
the passerSby would have seen same, but,
however, it was sufficient to burn large
hole in the flooring and destroyed several
pieces of old clothing.
During the past year Mr.. RoSenbium
has been. robbed three times and it is a
mystery to the public why this man is so
unfortunate.
The officers have the matter in charge
and an investigation will be Immediately
made.

HOMELESS AND INSANE.
A Woman Found With Her Child at
the Station

A sad scene was witnessed last night
about 10 o'clock by Mounted officers
Schumacher and Peterson, it being a
woman and child, which were found on
the platform of the International depot.
1t seems that early in the afternoon a
railroad man noticed this woman. who is
evidently poor, standing near the depot,
with her child in her arms, seemingly
looking or waiting for some one. She re-
manned there until last night, when the
same man again passed, noticed her and
asked If she was in trouble. No sooner
had he uttered these words. when the
woman dropped the child, sprang to the
man and began abusing him severely,
scratching at his face, splitting an him
and most fOrcibly used her teeth on the
man who was eager to assist. what he
supposed, woman in need. Assistance
soon came to the unfortunate man and it
was with difficulty that four men held
her. The officers soon arrived and she
was taken to the city prison. Her name,
her place of residence nor her reason for
being in tina city could not be ascertained
as she refused to give any information.
At times she is sane and converSeS very
intelligently. The child was taken by
Deputy Sheriff McCloskey, who will care
for the little thing until the mystery can
be solved

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying

Every one notices the swarmS of Mex
leans about our streets, whose sugar loaf
hats and scant clothing plainly mark them
as fresh from the border.
They have been induced to come into
quarter, in view of the approaching elee-
ton.
But how can these people vote? it is
easy enough. Although the law bristleS
with severe penalties for false swearing
and false registration.
Let any good citizen visit the county
clerks office and he will witness the first
step In the fraud, and see how easy it is
done. Citizens papers blanks lie about
as careless as waste paper; a ''heeler' or
''rounder" of the ring comes in with half
dozen poverty stricken Mexicans who
do not understand a word of English, and
the heeIer fills out the blanks.
The county clerk sits at his
desk and the. TO be made voters
come before him and hold up their hands
while the county clerk transla the oath
in a rapid fashion, the citizen is made
but must go through the registration mill
in order TO be used.
The poor tramp does not understand
word of the oath, or its import, in fact he
has been told it is only done to enable him
to vote.
He is then given little tab giving
his residence, which really is entirely tic-
ticOuS, and he is pushed before the re-
giStrar with his fresh citizen paper in his
hand and registered; then his certificate
is taken care of and the voter sent to
headquarters tobe put on the street force
until election day.
Mr.. Thad Smith is the miller that runs
the c tizens mill. He seldom asks any fee
for his work; all the guards are removed
and the protection of community against
bogus citizenship destroyed; they don't
even pay the legal fee to get their papers.
Every officer on the ring ticket is en-
gagged in this gigantic crime upon Ameri-
can citizenship and the right of suffrage.
And unless he legal citizens of our
county come together as one man this
crime will put the men who are perpe-
laugh at the protests Of the honest people
Of our city and county.
Every good citizen is justly proud Of his
citizenship, and submits to decision OF
the majority at the ballot box, but
when this majority is obtained by the
voting of aliens and illegal, fraudn.
lent voters, it should not be submitted to.
If the doors of the halls of Justice are
held fast by men who profit by fraudu-
lent votes, the people had better kick
them down. But first let US see if by
rallying at the polls We cannot beat down
this fraud.
Let us Try the law and have the illegal
and fraudulent voters arrested as fast as
we can, catch up with them.
Let it he shown whether the people
rule or whether The officials rule, and can
defy public sentiment.

AnuSenenUS,

A very fair house greeted the Fast
Mali at the Grand last night, and the
performance was quite amusing. Some
parts were played very well indeed while
others were not so good, but then there
always has to be a draw back in every
thing but first class shows. The third act
is fine in which the fast mail train passes
at a cannon ball speed.

ThoFrenchwCman. unlike her English
sister, has as rule very good business
education, In the common schools she has
been taught household bookkeeping ana has
been given lessons in purchasing and useful
expenditure. As q wife she is expected gen.
orally to help her husband in his business
and sometimes she manages il entirely for
him, and in the larger ones she is an equal
partner. The Bon Marehe was made famous
by Madame B0ucicault, who helped her hus-
bard found and maintain the establish
ment, and after his death she took entire
charge Of it.
Her system was one OF so much kindness
and consideration toward her employees that
they called her "the Lady Of the Bon
Marche," and looked upon her almost as
saint. She was very prosperous in the busi-
ness, and associated with herself as stock
holders the chiefs of the various depart
ments who had been faithful in their SER
vice, that they might share in tue profits.
Then she wished to include as many of the
part of her shares TO common fund subject
10 their purchase.
In her will she left the rest of the shares
TO The stockholders; also she gave $1,000, 600
of her own private fortune for pension
fund for those of the employees who from
age or illness were unable longer to work.
There are many other large establishments
in Paris managed by women. Mime. Co.

money for him, and many of the wives of
