Although there is natural inclna-
uon of fight followers TO regard the
dolngs OF the big fellows with the
greatest amount OF interest yet the
night fans could hardly overlook the
really important happening among
the small ones during the past
week. To all appearances the bout
between Terry McGovern and Young
Corbett is clinched. The Nutmeg club
OF Connecticut was the highest bid

heated arguments between IN Ha-.

UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME.
Mr.. RnndeIl's Victory.

Mr.. RandeIPs Victory.
Representative Randell, of the Fifth
Congressional district of Texas, which
was formerly represented by Senator
Bailey, has already attracted the atten-
tion of the House. Before the session is
much older he will probably have some
thing more to say. His first act, however.
was in the line of reform. The Commit
tee on Accounts had reported a series OF
resolutions granting clerks to various
committees of the House. When the clerk
read Clerk for Election Committee No.
g." Mr.. Randell promptly arose, and ad
dressing the Chair, said:
Mr.. Speaker. l move to strike out
clerk for Election Committee No. g. l
am a member of that committee, and il
has had no meeting since 1t was appoint
ed. and, furthermore, there Is no bust
ness before the committee to warrant the
appointment of a clerk
In vain did Mr.. Weeks, the chairman
of the committee protest. for Mr.. Ran
dell's motion prevailed. and the provision
for the clerk was stricken out. 1t was a
decided victory for the Texas Congress
man. and he was warmly congratulated by
the chairmen of the smaller committees
who were not provided with clerks.

ed up the aisle, preceded by train of
ushers and maids.
Over her trailing gown of rich white

lace, that her own mother wore as
bride. A tulle veil fell gracefully to the
edge of the train, and she carried show
er Of lilies OF the valley and delicate
fern.
Her maid of honor. Miss Micbener, was
dainty in white point d'esprit and
duchess lace, with which she carried pink
carnations and valley lilies.
Miss Clarisa Halstead, of Cincinnati.
Miss Clara Mccormick, of Annapolis. and
and Miss Mary Warner, of this city, made
a trio of exceedingly attractive maids.
Each wore an exquisitely pretty slip of

Elected Mayor ns Result of Strike.


When our present Mayor Schmitz was
nominated for the office he holds his
candidacy was regarded as a kind of
joke" said Mr.. ]. Barth, prominent
business man of San Francisco at the Ra-
leigh.
Nobody had the slightest idea that he
could be elected, nor would he have been
but for the extraordinary situation caused
by our long and harassing strike. AS an
outcome OF that disturbance the labor
unions put Schmitz forward as their
candidate. He was leader of the orches-
ira in the Columbia Theatre and a fairly
good citizen. but absolutely without eX-
perience in politics or in the manage
ment of any sort of business requiring
any degree OF executive ability. The Demo-
cratic candidate, TObin, a man of high
character, supported by the solid and in
fuential element of San Francisco and
confessedly the strongest of the three
candidates in the field, got the least
number of votes.
1t will be a curious study to watch the
evolution OF our accidental mayor during
his incumbency. He has a large amount
Of patronage TO bestow, and the class that
elected him are clamorous. He will be an
exceedingly fortunate man if he can sat
,isfy his partisans and at the same time
give the people decent administration"
