AT THE THEATERs.
METROPOLITAN.

What will be regarded by great many
people as one OF the important stage
matters of the current season is prom
ised for tonight at the metropolitan
theater, remaining four nights, in a dra-
matization Of incidents from Thack-
eray's VANITY Fair made by J. H.
Nevins, in which Becky Sharp is to be
acted by Miss Coghlan and the balance
of the charac ters by her excellent COM
pany. The season, now new, has proved
a memorable che as to a revelation Of
new talent in play making and play act
ing. 1t may be that this attempt to
footlig.ht the best known of the Thack-
eray's novels will prove to the liking of
the folk to whom it is intended to ap-
peal. But it is a season in which the
dramatized novel-'Book play as it has
been termed-has figured very promi-
ner.tly in tneatricals, and we do not
think there is any disputing the state
ment that VANITY Fair" in its aspect
as literature, is entitled to as much con-
sideratfon at least as any of the numer-
GUS novels that has been put into the
theater in recent years AS to Miss
CoghIan, she has been a very familiar
figure in the eyes of local play goers for
several years; but the infrequency and
breyfty of her visits here are to be at
tributed less to any uncertainty regard
ing her artistic standing than to the
business conditions that obtain in the
practical conduct of theatricals.

thefts could have reached anything like
the extent they did reach even after a
weeks operations, when. as a matter of
fact, they only required the combined
operations OF the women for few
hours.
The circumstances all make clear that
the women are thieves of the most ex-
pert and the most dangerous type. It
is nov known that one of them keeps
a place in operation in Chicago through
out the year for the sale of the pro-
ceeds of her thefts in other cities. She
is a wealthy woman, and has influential
and wealthy friends among the criminal
classes and among those who thrive
through criminals.
Since the arrest of these women every
device which is known to that class of
people and their confederates-and their
resources are by no means few-have
been awaited of to secure immunity for
them from punishment for those rob-
berries. Tha owners of the stolen prop
erty are being operated on directly and
indirectly to produce this result. Po-
litical influence has been invoked. Money
will be refunded Everything, in a word,
that can be done to make good the
losses sustained and to save trouble and
annoyance to those who have been
robbed will be done by the friends Of
these women, if only their release can
be secured.
The public is interested in knowing
whether the merchants whose stores
were robbed by these women are going
to do their full duty as citizens in the
matter, or whether they are willing
to succum3 to the influences which are
being so extensively resorted to. This
is a subject that relates not to the mer-
chants who have been robbed alone,
but to every retail merchant in the city.
No one knows. aside from the mer-
chants themselves, the enormous extent
Of the robberies that are perpetrated
on them through the operations Of shop
filters, professional and otherwise.
Here are certain members of the shop
lifting sisterhood who are a menace to
every merchant in the country. Their
capture was an exceptional piece of
work If they are to be turned loose
now, and saved from punishment, sim
ply because they have rich and powerful
friends on the purlieus of decent society,
who are willing to expend their influence
and money in their behalf, the general
public ought to be made acquainted with
the fact The other retail merchants
who are at any time liable to be VIC
timized even by the same women or
others, as adept thieves as they, should
make this affair theirs, as well and save
the entire community the danger and
discredit which will ensue if ample JUS
tice is not meted out

ANECDOTES OF SENATOR DAVIS

East Orange IN. ID Gazette
DR.. Johns D. Parker, of Main street
says Senator c. K. Davis, whose death
has just been announced, and he were
classmates in the University of MichI-
gan, and were always the best of friends.
He says they sat side by side reading
Juvenal, under Prof Frieze, and "Cush,
as the boys Familiarity called him, was
one of the best students in the class.
AS a young man Davis was as trim as
a fawn in form, all nerve and muscle,
and as strong and brave as he could be.
DR.. Parker recalls this incident in col
lege life that showed his nerve:
There was a big bully student in the
medical department, with his under jaw
protruding, who was always spelling for
a fight with some one smaller than him
self. He would come over nearly every
week to the Literary college, and run
over the boys. Walking up near some
student smaller than himself, he would
suddenly run over him, and then try to
get into a fight. One day he ran up
against Davis, who turned and, quickly
as a fash, knocked him down.
This bully, who was really a coward,
got up, and went and made a bitter
complaint against Davis to Prof Frieze.
who was acting president in the absence
of hancellor Tappan. Prof. F'rieze sent
for Davis and told him he had serious
charge against him, and then stated tha
case as the bully had given it to him.
He then asked Davis if he struck the
medical student. Davis said he did and
if the student ever looked at him again
he would break every bone in his BODY
He then told Prof Frieze how it hap
pened and the professor told him the eN-
PLANTATION was perfectly satisfactory ana
he would excuse him. DR.. Parker says
this bully never troubled the literary
students any mere, but disappeared from
view, AMI he was satisfied from this in,
cident that "Cush" had good stuff in
him and would win his way in the world.

GIVE THEM THE LIMIT.

Some days ago tie police arrested Ger
tain women who had been operating as
shoplifters and had robbed the retail
dry goods houses of st. Paul right and
left. The capture is regarded rightfuIly
as one of the best and most important
pieces of police work that has been done
recently il this city.
These women had been in the city not
quite twenty-four hours. They had
landed here from Chicago one evening
and the next evening were arrested at
the union depot flom which they had in
the interval shipped fully a cart load of
valuable property stolen from our mer-
chants. Indeed, ons ma.vels how these

THE QUESTION OF A RECOUNT.


The General Laws of Minnesota, which
provide for contesting. elections, contain
no express provisions relating to state
officers, and the first proposition which it
would be necessary to determine in case
a contest was instituted by Gov. Lind,
would be whether or not the general
election laws regulating contests applied.
The procedure for county and municipal
officers and members of the legislature
is pretty well settled, but, no reference
being made to state officers, a great
many lawyers insist that the contest for
the Office of governor would not come
within the provisions of the general
statutes In contests for the minor Of
fees the proceeding is one practically for
a recount Upon the contest beng in
stituted either party, upon a statement
that it is necessary for him to have a
recount of the ballots in order to pre-
pare for trial, the court will order such
recount, so that it is a simple matter in
such a case to obtain a recount
If the general statutes do not apply to
a contest for the office of governor, this
right to a recount upon practically a
mere demand does not exist. Aside from
the statutory proceeding the only way
in which a contest could be instituted
would be by quo warranto proceedings.
The first step in these proceedings would
be to obtain the cooperation of the at
torney general. Without his cooperation
the supreme court would only issue the
writ Of quo 'warranto after some sort
of a showing had been made by the ap-
plicant. And in the absence of a right
to recount the ballots it is difficult to
see how such a showing could be made.
The whole matter is bristling with what
lawyers call nice legal questions, and we
have no doubt it viii be a matter OF
general regret to our friends of the legal
fraternity if the opportunity for trying
and settling so many nice points is lost.
There has been at least one legal con-
test in the United States for the office of
governor. Gov. Barstow, of Wisconsin,
was ousted by the supreme court of that
state in quo warranto proceedings. The
case is reported in the Fourth Wisconsin.
Matt Carpenter was one of the counsel
for the defeated party, and the case
at the time awakened general interest.

THE VOTE FOR GOVERNOR.

1t appears that on the vote for gov
ernor, at least 5000 votes were thrown
out because the ballots were marked for
both Lind and Lucas, the Socialist-Dem-
ocrat candidate. In lie Sueur county
34 votes were thus thrown out. Of the
congressional candidates Heatwole CRep)
polled 1873 votes, SchalIer Oem) polled

than Heatwole received, and these $50
votes were evidently cast for Lind. But
in spite of the fact that 100 Republicans
voted for him in preference to Van
SAINT, Lind only polled total of 1,947
votes in the county, or 1874 votes less than
Schaller, which is explained by the fact
that SS4 votes were thrown out on ac-
count of being marked for both Lind and
Lucas. In the same manner about S25
votes were thrown out in Scott county.
Waseca about 300; Stearns, 45O; Carver,
$50; NIeeker, $50, and there is probably not
a county in the state where there were
not at least hundred votes thrown out
for this same reason. A total of $4,000 IS
therefore putting it very low.
That all those. whose votes We're thus
thrown out, really intended to vote for
Lind. can not be questioned. Every So

his candidate and therefore had no oc-
casion to make such a blunder. It was
