MANIAC IN THE eREENRooM
A Crazy Son of Brigham Young Runs Amuek In Theater Dressing RoomA


 Amuek In Theater Dressing RoomA
 SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. eS.-By presence of mind and prompt action on the part of several members of Hoyt's "Trip to China town" company terrible tragedy was averted at the Salt Lake theater.. Oscar B. Young, a crazy son of the Mormon prophet, Brigham Young, burst open the door of the Sheater box office. Before the Rstonished treasurer and manager could collect themselves Young strode into the theater, around to the stage door and dashed across the stage.
 The curtains were down and the actors dressing for the second act. Young is a man of powerful physique, having till re- csnt years been blacksmith. Into the first dressing room he broke and stood frothing in passion before Harry Connor, the Welland Strong of the play. After trying to lock the door he demanded the key of Connor.
 "rll teach you to go to New York and talk about the Danites,' he said With a torrent of oaths the madman pressed upon Counor. Instantly recognizing that he was in the presence of a madman, Connor jumped out of the door. The ladies in the adjoining rooms screamed.
 At this moment the property man, An tone Mazzanovich, a match in strength and size for Young, leaped upon the mad man from behind and pinioned him. Just then a boy was passing with two swords used in the play With the strength born of madness Young released himself, grabbed a sword and commenced plunging at those around him. Again the massive property man caught him from behind. At the same time other members of the company seized Young, and he was held until a squad of policemen took him away.

 The fourth grand concert and sociable of the Brooklyn Athletic club will be given in the auditorium on New Years afternoon and evening, with music by the American band orchestra. Every lady in the Sraad march will have a chance upon a pair of opera glasses.
 The stock of Christmas goods at l.. r. X \. NJ. Guilfoile's meat market is being made the subject of much comment by all who pass. The display is not all on the outside, inside the store is well filled with all that is represented on the outside and is thronged with eager purchasers.
 There is no news that would be of in- terest to your readers around this part Uf the town to-day. said prominent resident of Bank street to a DEMOCRAT reporter this morning. But it may be of interest to some people to learn that there has been only one or two arrests made in this part of the town during the present month and these were nothing of any importance.

THE AFRICAN WAR.
LobsnEuiA stnl Free. but His Brother sur-
 rendsrs.


 CAPE TOWN, Dec. 23,-An the native re- ports from Buluwayo concur in the state ment that Captain Wilson, after remain ing on the defensive few days, ordered an advance to be made. By determined at tack he completely defeated the enemy. The Matabeles were soon in full flight. King Lobengnlu took to horseback, his wagon having stuck fast. He was closely pursued by Captain Wilson's party.
 lobengula's brother, Moonto, yielded to the pursuing party, with all the arms of his followers and all their cattle. A re- port from Major Sawyer to Commissioner Loch has just been received at Cape Town and confirms the pursuit of Lobeagula. Major Sawyer says that the Shangani river will be impossible for three days Scouts extend for 60 miles along the river, and they all report the natives submissive.
 Major Goold-Adams reports from Bulu wayo that all the inhabitants of the coun. try. with the exception of those who art actually with Lobengula, have sent depu tations to solicit peace. Major Rhodes re ports that the pacifioation of the country is proceeding satisfactorily without blood she'd

WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
Hawaiian Investigating Committee wm
 Work During the Holidays.

WAsHINGroN, Dec. 23.-The senate com mittee on foreign relations will immedi- ately begin the work of investigating the alleged irregularities of the diplomatic re lations between this country and the Ha- waiian government, as authorized by the resolution of Senator Morgan, chairman of that committee.
 The resolution as it passed the senate authorizes the committee to send for per sons and papers, and it is the purpose to investigate the subject as fully as is possi- ble under the scope of the resolution and as the regular duties of the members of the committee will permit.
 There are several residents of Hawaii now in the city, and 1t is the purpose of the committee to secure their testimony as soon as possible and before they leave here. Consequently the committee will sit dur ing the holidays, probably beginning next Tuesday or Wednesday, and will continue the meetings sufficiently long to at least exhaust its inquiries among Hawaiians staying temporarily in Washington.

FURNITURE ABLAZE.
One Life Lost and Much Damage Done by
 Boston Fire.

BOSTON, Dec. 3S.-Fire broke out in the large Wakefield block on Canal street, causing loss of one life and damage of fully S200, 900. The fire was discovered in the third story on the Canal street side The block is of brick and six stories in height The building was occupied mainly by furniture makers, and the combustible nature of its contents caused the flames to spread, and three alarms quickly followed the first. The flames rushed up the ele- vator shaft in the Travers street side, and then extended to Friend street and gradu- ally worked their way toward Canal street.
 For time Paine's Furniture company and the Boston and Maine trainshed were threatened with destruction, but good work by the department saved them, and after two hours and half of hard work the fire was got under control A large number of persons were employed in the building, and it was supdosed all had es- capped in safety, but after the fire was un- der control the remains of a body burned beyond recognition were found on the third floor under mass of debris.

HARRISON GOES WEST.
Spoke Before Going at the New England
 SooIety's Annual Banquet.

PHILApELPHIA, Dec. 23-Some of the leading lights of oratory, literature, poli- tics, journalism and the learned professions were the men whom eN- President Harrison met at the thirteenth annual festival of the New England Society of Pennsylva- mia. The society's banquet board was spread at the Continental hotel.
 The president of the society after brief speech introduced eX-President Harrison, who spoke to the toast, The President of the United States" The speaker said he felt that he owed something to Mir. Smith because he had appointed the latter to an office which did not pay his expenses. He expressed his gratitude to the people or Philadelphia for their cordiality in his embarrassment on being called upon to compete with so many bright minds in an after dinner speech.
 Mir. Harrison left the banquet hall inn mediately after his speech and took a train on the Pennsylvania railroad for the west. The Rev. Edward Everett Hale, the next speaker. talked of 'sThs Day We Cele- brAtes'' Congressman Boutelle of Maine. Murat Halstead and Rev. Dr. J. 5. McIn- tosh also spoke
