Dynes, editor of the Republican, at No. 45 South Linden street, was entered by a burglar yesterday morning early. The housebreaker proceeded to the bedroom occupied bv Miss Sawver. a guest of the family, and, after obtaining everything of value that he could find, he appears to have been attracted by a cluster aiamona ring worn oy .Miss aawyer, and in his attempt to remove the ring from her finsrer. the ladv was awakened, when th villain clutched her bv the throat with one tiand, holding her head back with the other. Miss. S. realized at once that she must make determined effort for her life, and with almost superhuman energy succeeded in treeing herself from the burglar a grap. and crying for help, ran into the bedroom occu pied by Mr. and Mrs. DyDes, who arose at once and proceeded to the scene of the Stru?ffle tn find thahnrolar had fla.l 1u!na all the valuables he had gathered behind aim.
LIFE SENTENCE, The Vetdlct of tho Jury in th CsUa of Mrs. Brown.
Indianapolis Sentinel. At 2:45 yesterday afternoon the Jury in the Brown murder case returned to the Court Room. Judge Hill was summoned and a verdict reported to have been agreed upon. The attorneys and the prisoner were notified and were soon in their seats. Mrs. Brown sat beside Mrs. Foster, apparently unmoved, but very pale. At the request of Judge Hill, the foreman, Horace J. Watson, am and handed the Clerk the verdict, whio'i was read as follows: "We, tho Jury, find tho defendant guilty of murder in the first degree, and sentence her to the penal department of the Indiana Reformator)' IiiKltutlon for Women and Girls during the term of her natural life. Mr. Brown burst into tears during the reading of the verdict The Jurv was polled, and each member responded that he agreed to the verdict. Mr. Cropsey, the counsel for the prisoner, arose and informed the Court that he would move for a new trial. The Court granted him until 10 o'clock to-day to prepare his motion, and was allowed a day'H additional time to file new affidavits. Mrs. Brown was then remanded to jail, leaving the Court Room upon the arm of Mr. Crojwcy, one of her attorneys. The Jones Burglary. The entrance into Aquilla Jones' residence by a burglar on Wednesday night was effected by climbing a post on the front porch and cutting the shutters of one of the fro 'it windows on the stcond floor. The presence of the burglar was not discovered until about 10 o'clock, when a son of Mr. Jones returned home and detected the Operations of the burglar in his room. He immediately gave the alarm and summoned two of the neighbors to his assistance. The three then discovered that the burglar had locked the door to the north front room on the inside, and it was surmised that he was still there. Further investigation, however, showed that he had taken a sheet from a bed in the room, had climbed out of the window on to the porch, tied the sheet to one of the pillars, and, lowering himself to the ground, escaped. It is generally sispposed by the family that when Mr. Jones' son came home the burglar hurried into the room, locked th'i door and made good his e cape some fif teen minutes before the discovery was made that the door was locked. None of the family saw the man. and, of cours-, could give no description to the police officers. ine value or tne property taken will not ex ceed pm. For Ie. A first-class barber shop.

AiuoMweair, The beautiful play commented on below will be presented at English's elegant Opera House on Jan. 10, and our people should not fail to see it. Opera di Camera or chamber opera, to put the expression into English is a success. Nothing but the terribly torrid weather which prevailed during the first five days of the week prevented the attendance of goodly audiences at the Gaiety; and, during the week, which opens to-morrow, we hope the little theater will be well patronized, for the entertainment ranks among the very Dcti mat nave been given here, flow ex tended the field of light opera which '-The Spectre Knight" and "Charity Begins at uouie" represent so well, we do not know; but certainly this Bijou Opera Company has ''a gold mine' in it, if it is properly worked. It would be difficult to select a company belter fitted for its work than that which closes tho season at the Gaiety next Saturday night; and the appreciation of the audiences at this house must have convinced the ladies and gentlemen of the opera di camera that, with anything approaching favorable circumstances, their eflorts are certain of sub-Untial reward in Boston.

As per aunour.cement from the oulnit It t Sunday night, the Leader will low keep its worl and tell all about the watch busi. ncs. The watch is in hunting cases, 18 k. fln , and was purchased of the popular jeweler, Harry Craft, of Washington street, by the trustees of Jones' Tabernacle, as a present to the pastor. The idea first originated with the brothers of the church, instead of the isters. Jones' Tabernacle was crowded to overflowing la-t Sab!ath night, partly because of the beautiful weather, but more because as previously announced through the Leader, the pastor woud preach one of his eloquent sermons on a special subject, which he did very eloquently and effectively. He has transformed the used to be slender congregation of Blackford Street Church into the largest in the city, the reaoon of which is simple and plain. Mr. Manson is not only a very eloquent man in the pulpit, but b genial to all outside of the pulpit, a rare secret of success in ministerial life, which to many ministers are a lifetime learning.

LEGISLATIVE LABOR
The interest manifested In the meeting of the A&sftobly was about the same as that incumbent upon former meetings of the Legislature, save there being an unusual interest manifested in the organization of the Senate as to which party should have the spoils. At 10:20 o'clock General Manson, Auditor of State, called the Senate to order. Shortly after the gavel had fallen, Elder W. B. F. Treat invoked the Divine blessing upon the session, and asked that all acts might be for the benefit of good and the general welfare of the people of the State. The names of the holding over Senators were then called by General Manson, and answering to their names, the new members afterward came forward and took the oath of office, administered by J udge Ni black, of the Supreme Court, whereupon a constitutional quorum was announced to be present. The first motion of the session was made by Senator Menzies, that the Senate proceed to the election ot a President pro tern., nominating Senator Viehe, of Knox County. Senator Viehe had no opposition, and received all the votes cast, but that of Senator Spann, on the Republican side of the Cham Der. The Senate came to a deal lock on the election fof Secretary. Mhj t Wilson the Republican candidate and James Rice the Democratic candi. a e each receiving twenty five votes. The Friday morning session was passed without breaking this dead lock. IN THE HOUSE. A much larger crowd assembled to witness the organizaticn of the House of Representatives. Prayer was offered by Rev. M. W. Reed. Secretary of State Shanklin, in accordance with the Constitution, called the body to order, and began calling the roll of new members. The new members were sworn in bv Judge Elliott, of the Supreme Court. After all the pieliminaries hadj been disposed of, the work of perfecting an organization was begun and soon accomplished in the election of Hon. W. M. Kidpath, of Clay County, for Speaker; Cyrus T. Nixon, of Marion, for Clerk; C. C. Riley, of Marion, for Assistant Clerk, and Owen Evans, of Henry County, for Doorkeeper. The entire vote on the Democratic side of the House were cast for the officers of the last Legislature Henry S. Cauthorne, of Knox County, tor Speaker; Webster Dixon, of Bartholomew, for Clerk; W. F. A. Bernhamer, of Marion, for Assistant Clerk: David B. Wilaon, of Shelby, for Doorkeeper. In the organization of the House it was discovered that there was one member who belonged to neither the Democratic nor Republican party. If such a thing had happened that the Legislature had not met at all, he might not have been discovered without the aid of a microscopical examination. His name is Wheeler, and a very worthy gentleman too, hailing from the Counties of Fulton and Pulaski. Mr. Wheeler is a modest gentleman; he had no candidate for Speaker, and neither had he any choice. Iiis candidates for Clerk, Assietaut Clerk and Doorkeeper were J. M. Davis, of Fulton County, for Clerk; for Assisstant Clerk, W. 11. Ingram, of Pulaski County; for Doorkeeper, William Doggett, of Putnam County. Wheeler was true to his friends; he voted solid every time. The honor of presenting the names of the Democratic candidates was conferred upon Hon. S. W. Edwins, of Madison County, which Mr. Edwins did with credit to himself and honor to the. gentlemen, receiving the praise of the Democratic side of the House. Township Trustee's Repo?rt.
