TIE city elect ons of Enterprise Kan, last week resulted in the sig. nal defeat of the womans ticket, headed by the wife of prominent merchant. The issue was opposi. ton 10 all manner of evil things. At most of the municipal contests in that State very little interest was felt. Can it be possible that indifference to the wants of the tyrauized sex is growing?

LOOKING UP BoURDIN's RECORD.
The police are still hunting for evidence
To connect Martial Bourdin, the man who
was killed in Greenwich park Thursday
night by the premature explosion OF a
bomb, or chemicals that he was carrying,
with the militant anarchists who have
ned 10 England from the continent for
asylum. Among the papers found on Bour-
din was bill made out by hotel at
Brussels. A number of spherical glass
bombs filled with explosives, were found
a few days ago in the hotel named on the
bill he held. Bourdin was recently alb
sent from London for several days, and
these facts indicated that it was he who
owned the bombs in the Brussels hotel
The police are keeping close watch on
all the anarchists The theory
that Bourdin intended to blow up
the Greenwich observatory is hardly ten
able Anarchist outrages in London, or
elsewhere in England, would probably re-
suit in such regulations regarding foreign
anarchists being taken that they
would lose the only refuge they
have in Europe. 1t is, there
fore, considered that they would not COM
init an act in this country that would
probably result in their expulsion.

A BOLD BREAK FOR LIBERTY.
Four Men Held Back at the Point OF q
Revolver.

Buffalo, N. Y, Feb. 17.--Leroy Harris.
alias William II. Clark, undergoing ex-
animation in United States Commissioners
Fairchild's office, in the federal
building, held up the commis-
sioner, United States District Attor-
ney Mackey, Special Post Office Inspector
Latimer and Deputy United States Mar
shall Watt at the point of his revolver
and then bolted and made good his
escape. Harris was arrested In the
postoffice at noon to-day by Special Agent
Latimer on the charge of forging the
order for 500 in Valparaiso, Ind, some
weeks ago. The inspectors had been
after him ever since, and only succeeded
in spotting him to-day. He was taken to
the United States commissioners ONCE,
on the third floor of the building, aud was
put under examination.
HIS BREAK SUDDEN ONE.
Everything was going on quietly, when
Harris jumped TO his feet and pulling a
big guu, yelled: Hold up your hands, or
III blow your id brains out" He had
the drop on all present, and they quietly
submitted. Harris then backed toward
the door, and with his revolver still COW
erinR the court officials, and opening the
door, bolted into the corridor, locking the
door after him. Quick as flash
Inspector Latimer threw open a window
and fired his revolver in the air TO attract
attention, and then yelled ''stop him,
stop him" A crowd quickly gathered,
but Harris had got safely out OF the
building and was gone before the police
arrived
Harris was for many years an employe
Of the New York postofice.

TO CLEAN THE AUaEAN STABLES
New York Jockey Clubs to Try to Re-

New York, Feb. 17.-At a conference
to-day of committees representing the
New York Jockey Club and the Coney

vocate a junction for the two clubs in
matters of policy The committee of the
new club consisted OF the stewards
of the field club. r. Keene, Col.

S. X. Sturgin. The committee Of the
Coney Island Jockey Club, having full
power to act, consisted of j.
G. Lawrence. j. 7. Hecksher and
Hon. George Peabody Whitmore.
Now that the entire racing associations
Of this state are banded together, IL is to
be expected that great reforms will take
place in turf matters. The laws
will be revised so as to
exclude the disreputable element
Of the turf from further participation in
horse racing, and heavy punishment will
be meted out 10 any offender The one,
two and three system of betting, which
is disliked by a great majority Of book
makers and race-goers, will also, 1t is
thought be abolished and many other
minor abuses rectifed

A MISSIONARY AVENGED.
The Shah of Persia Causes the e xe-
cution of Four Highwaymen.

Lynchburg, Va, Feb 1.-THE Lynch
burg News, will print private letter to-
morrow received here fromPersia relating
a shocking instance of swift and extreme
vengeance on the part OF the shah's gov
ernment, at the instance Of Minister Nc
Donald, IN behalf of the American mis-
sionaries One Of their number. Rev e.
w. St. Pierce, of Oroomia, while riding
home from the couatry late in the even
ing, when within little more
than a mile of the town, was halted
and seized by some ruffians, who dragged
him into an adjoining woods and treated
him in most unmerciful manner With
firearms and swords pointed at his breast,
he was forced, under the threat OF in
slant death, TO surrender all the money
and other yaluables which he had about
him. and more was demanded under pen
atty of his life. Having no more to give,
MIR. St Pierre told them to kill him at
once, II they intended to, as he was
Christian and not afraid to die.
Then they roughly treated him
again, stripping him of his clothing in the
bitter cold and left him half dead, saving
that if he moved from where he was in
so many minutes, he would be shot.
When the time had expired the outraged
man dragged himself to the road and
finally reached home in deplorable con-
dition, where he was kindly cared for.
THE RUFFIANs EXECUTED.
The facts of the case were Immediately
reported to the American minister at
Teheran, who promptly laid it before the
prime minister with a most urgent de-
mand that prompt and vigorous IN easures
be taken for the arrest ana punishment
of the criminals who had so brutally NAL
treated his countryman. The prime
minister reported that no effort would be
spared to bring the malefactors to
punishment, and Immediately tele-
graphed peremptory orders to
that effect to the proper olficials at
Oroomia. The answer came quickly that
his order had been obeyed, that the rob
bers, four in number who proved to be
notorious outlaws, had been captured
after a stout resistance and put to death.
This summary and sanguinary ending of
the affair was at once reported TO the
American legation by the prime minister,
who thanked him for his prompt action
and then put in claim for damages for
Mr.. ST. Pierre.

Mrs. Lease wears upon her bosom,

,"She says her commahdery is Hugh
DePayne of Fort Scott, Kan, and offers
to prove to Masons. that she knows all
the signs and passes of the order, blue
lodge and chapter, and that she obtained
them legitimately. She says if Masonry
IS good for men it Is much
better for women, as they
are more needful of protec-
tion than men. She says once by giving
sign of the order she was saved from
personal violence, and from that moment
she resolved to give to women the same
advantages of Masonry that she en- nioys.
She says that she is thoroughly up in the
Masonic work and it is not necessary for
her to obtain the consent or aid
of men in initiating women,
and if the men refuse to recog-
nize her disciples as Masons. they can and
will act independently Of them and con-
duct lodges and grand lodges of their
own. Mrs. Lease admits that IL is con-
trary to the Masonic rule for women
to become members, but she declines to
state how she obtained the secrets of the
order. She challenges any Mason TO test
her on the secret work Of the ordera
