Matthew |. Sullivan said it yesterday In
Judge Hebpard's court, and the expression
of countenance which accompanied the re-
mark was something between a smile and
frown.
He had seized and examined ballot from
the First Precinct of the Twenty-eighth As
sembly District. and as he bent his head
and peered at the red crosses sprinkled over
the surface of the ballot his brows con-
tracted in an ominOus scowl. He took
long look, then slowly raised his head. His
forehead still retained its fierce frown, but
his mouth was seen to sio~ly elongate into
a happy smile. Their he uttered the eXcla-
nation of the successful gold-hunter.
1t was the last ballot of the precinct, and
it gave Read a gain of nine for this precinct
alone. Mr.. Sullivan had examined every
one, but discovered nothing which indicated
that the ballot had been tempered with.
Then came the last, and that let the cat out
of the bag.
Mr.. Sullivan cleared his throat and adj
dressed the court.
"if your Honor please" he SAID, II have
found positive evidence that these ballots
have been changed since they were depos-

LADIES want len Thousand Dollars

The members of the women's committee
of the San Francisco exhibit ct the Worlds
Fair were quite enthusiastic yesterday at
their meeting at the residence of Miss West.
Mrs. Alv0rd. who was in the chair, stated
that the object of the meeting was to raise
money for the golden gates, which it is pro-
posed to put at the entrance OF the space
allotted to the women of the California
State Building. The committee wish to
emphasize the fact that the California State
Building, in which this exhibit is TO be
placed is entirely distinct from the Women's
Building. in which California women are
also making an exhibit.
1t was decided TO attempt the raising OF
$4,000. in ST subscriptions. by personal
solicitation. A committee was appointed to
draft an appeal and send it over the city,

Presently the cubs had eaten their

around to the back Of the wagon and
pulled at the Impala buck that hung
there and the other came around my
way and began the shifting game at my
leg. Indeed he did more than that, for,
my trousers being hitched up a little, he
began to lick the bare skin with his
rough tongue. The more he licked the
more he liked it, to judge from his in

DEAN HART'S CRUSADE.
A SUNDAY CLOSING CRUSADE BEGUN
IN DENVER.
All Places of Amusement Closed by the
Police Last Night-A Mob Stones
the House of the Preacher
Who Began 1t.

DENVER, Colo, Jan. %, All places Of
amusement found open tonight were
closed by order OF the police board, and
the proprietors and employees arrested
and placed in jail. Among the theaters
raided was the Tabor Grand Opera
house and the Wonderland. The places
were nermittsd to get under wav. and
The police were forced to make
the arrests by Rev. H. M. Hart,
dean of the Episcopal church, who has
inaugurated crusade against Sunday
amusements and insists upon the en-
forcement of the law which heretofore
has been q dead letter. After the thea
ters were closed immense crowds gath
cred on the principal streets and talked
the matter over, much excitement ex-
isting. Suddenly move was
made for Dean Hart's house and
in short time about 1000 people
surrounded it and alter hooting
and cat calling, stones were thrown,
smashing the windows. An alarm was
rung and the police soon arrived on the
scene and dispersed the crowd without
making any arrests. Nobody WAS in
the bombarded building at the time,
the dean and his family having been
removed by friends short time before
the mob arrived. The excitement soon
subsided and no further trouble ia ex-
pected tonight.

DYNAm1rISa IN ROME.

Bombs Exploded Before an Hotel and the
Proprietor's Residence.
ROME, Jan. 22.- Dynamite bombs
were exploded almost simultaneously
this afternoon before the Hotel D'Angle-
terre and in the garden of the proprie-
tors house in Via San Claudia. The
hotel was partly wrecked. Nobody was
injured, although the hotel had more
than 100 dodgers at the hour of the ex :
plosion. At first the front wall was ex-
pected to fall; after an examination,
however, the commissary announced
that there was no immediate danger and
the dodgers might return to pack their
trunks. Several women refused to re
turn, and their belongings were cared
for by the police. Before evening
all had left for other hotels.
The proprietor said this evening the
hotel and contents are almost
a total loss; not whole piece OF furni-
ture is left in the building. The walls
of houses near the hotel were cracked,
and all the windows in Via San Claudia
more or less damsged. All the windows
were smashed for 100 yards on every
side. No walls were racked, however,
and but for the breakage OF glassware,
crockery and furniture little harm was
done. Nobody was injured, as the
families had left their homes for the
afternoon. Immediately after the ex-
plosion the report went abroad that An.
archists were again at work. The pro-
prietor of the Hotel D'Apgelterre, how.
ever, says he is convinced both explo.
sions were caused by man whom he
discharged recently from his service.

LONDON, Jan. % ALI the party lead
ers have issued whips exhorting their
followers to be unremitting in attend
ance to their parliamentary duties dur
ing the coming session, as the home
rule bill will be introduced shortly after
the opening, and heavy, hot debates are
to be expected from the beginning.
AT the cabinet meeting yesterday the
ministers discussed the legal aspects of
the home rule bill.
Reports that Gladstone is failing have
caused great solicitude and some alarm
among his personal friends and the ad-
vocates OF home rule. To dispel all
doubts he walks and drives frequently in
the parks, besides sending out occasional
denials that he is feeling less strong and
energetic than formerly. There is a
general apprehension among the Liberal
Engishmen, however, that the prime
minister is not as we'll as he and his
friends would make the world believe
1t is impossible to verify the apprehen-
sions, as q adstone is very closely
guarded by his family and his nearest
friends, and only personal and political
intimetes are able 10 gain access to him.
