CONSTITUTIONALIST
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, IBTI
The Municipal Election —The elec
tion for Mayor and members of Council of
this city takes place to-morrow, the polls
opening at 8 and closing at 2 o’clock. We
have heard of no opposition to the regular
Democratic ticket, nor to any candidate
upon it. Notwithstanding this fact, we
hope that every Democrat in the city who
has registered will proceed to ‘he poll in
the ward In which lie lives and east his bal
lot. The election of a Mayor and Council
men is certainly of sufficient importance
for every one to take at least that amount
of Interest in it. Be sure then not to for
get, to vote to morrow.
Rose and Harry Watkins. —These old
established favorites performed last night
atGlrardey’s Opera House in the drama of
Trodden Down. Their appearauce on the
stage was a signal for a universal outburst
ol applause. The delineation of Irish
character by Mr. and Mrs. Watkins cannot
lie surpassed. The easy gliding from mirth
to sadness, the sparkling wit and the won
derfu! pathos, distinguishing characteristics
of this race, were portrayed with a perfeet
faithfulness to nature. Mrs. Watkins in
the play last night sustained the parts of
May McCarthy and Blanche Desmond,
while Mr. Watkins represented Fergus Mc-
Carthy.
The company supporting Mr. and Mrs.
Watkins is a very line one. Miss Carrie
Jamison and Miss Clifton are especially
deserving of notice, as are also Mr. Panl,
Mr. Hastings and Mr. Kenny. We would
advise those desiring a musical treat to
hear Mr. J. C. Kenny and his sister, Miss
Mary Kenuy, on their musical glasses or
tumbleronicon. This part of the perform
auce gave much pleasure to the audience
last night, and will be repeated to night.
The play for tills evening is Kathleen
Mavourneen, a favorite with everybody.
Beats can be secured at Mr. Oates’ book
store without extra charge.
A Slough of Despond—From 2 to 4
o’clock, p. m., yesterday, travel on the
street, railway was suspended, owing to the
fact that a large wagon was imbedded up
to the hubs of the wheels in the quag
mire, at the intersection of Broad and
Elbert streets. Over this Slough of Des
pond the track passes, and across the
track was the wagon, the wheels being
•rmly secured by the mud on either side.
This particular part of Broad s'reet has
become a terror to all wagoners and dray
men, and they approach it with fear and
trembling. Saturday we saw a dray in the
same fix as the wagon was yesterday. The
quagmire is really a most serious incon
venience to the public.
Stray Brrs—Yesterday was the coldest
day of the season.
A large flock of turkeys was being
driven about the city yesterday. The
prices asked were rather “ steep.”
The mud on the streets and crossings
yesterday made foot locomotion somewhat
unpleasant.
The inauguration of the new Mayor and
members of Council takes place Thursday.
To-day is legal sale day.
The telegraph liDe of the new company
was cut somewhere between Columbia and

Disorderly— An individual from South

alarming manner, threatening at the same
time to shoot the officer. The latter, how
ever, with the assistance of the Sheriff and
another gentleman, succeeded in disarming
the lighting character and carried him
before the Recorder, who imposed upon
him a fine of $5 and costs.
Trunk Thief Discovered.— Yesterday
morning our vigilant police arrested Adam
Shefton, colored, who had been discovered
to be the individual who stole Prince
Albert's trunk last week. He had In his
possession sundry articles of clothing, to
gether with some of the money which
was In the trank when he obtained pos
session of it. He was tried before the Dis
trict Court.
Pyrotechnics—Clark & McLaughlin
have received a splendid stock of assorted
fireworks, which they are offering very
low They have also fine crackers of the
best brand.

The following cases were disposed of;
