REVOLUTION IN BRUNSWICK.
Senator Morton Says That Brunswick Will Go
For Amendment.
Wilmington Starr

Captain George l.. Morton, Democratic
nominee for the State Senate from this
district, returned yesterday afternoon
from a ten days canvass in Brunswick
county and from every place which he
visited there comes a good report. Dur
ing his absence he visited every township
in the county anG spoke twice each day
with telling effect. Several Populists in
the county renowned publicly their form
er afflliation and expressed an intention
of voting for the amendment Capt
Morton's canvass was extremely arduous
and several days he was compelled to
drive forty miles across the country to
meet his appointments. 1t is safe to
say from advfces which have been re-
ceived during the past ten days, that no
such political tour has ever been made
before in Brunswick When asked about
the probable success of the amendment
in Brunswick, Capt. Morton said: Dur
ing the past several weeks there has
been a complete revolution over there;
though Democrats despaired of the county
/ give it as my candid opinion that Bruins
wick will give a majority for the amend
ment / shall be disappointed if the coun-
ty should go otherwise but my prediction,
even in that event, is that the majority
against the measure will not exceed so"
Much interest attaches to Capt. Nor
toms view of the outlook in Brunswick,
for since the campaign was opened no
other one man has had the opportunity
of observing the feeling of the people
more than he.

brilliant in the history of the place, and
while good many of the visitors from
this State are leaving in order that they
may take part in the elections Of their re-
spective counties, the prospects are that
the old Atlantic will fill up again imme-
diately after the election.

 Women Frantic

Wheeling, w Va, December 14.-The gang of desperadoes who robbed Doer- schucks Bank at Shanesville, O., arrived at Bridgeport just before noon on the Mas sillon accommodation of the Cleveland, Lorraine and Wheeling road. Two of the gang were captured after a desperate en- counter with officers and trainmen. Four others escaped and a posses is pursuing them.
 Officer Meister of this place, heard of the robbers being on the train and went to Wheeling and boarded the train. He found the men in the ladies' coach. One despera- do drew a pistol and a fight was at once started which continued until the train reached Bridgeport when other officers got on.
 During the fight on the train men and women were frantic with fear, and many tried to jump from the windows while the train was in motion to escape the bullets. One of the men captured had $360 in cash. mostly bills, with seevral hundred pennies in a sack which had the name of the rob- bed mank stamped on it. They had several bottles of nitro glycerine, dynamite car tridges. fuses and various burglar tools.

Hoyt's "A Black Sheep was the attrac- tion at the Jefferson Theatre last night and played to fair house.
 The presentation was not up to the Hoyt standard and much of the famous play wrights humor was lost on the desert air.
 The presentation lacked the snap that the play calls for and while the actors did their best there was dirth of real spirit which was manifest throughout the evening with one or two exceptions. The company as a whole is not made up of stars.
 There were, however, some redeeming features, and although the audience was never warmed up to enthusiasm 1t passed through several laughing periods and was apparently satisfied.
