Lilino- kalani is at the point of death.Her pLysician has pronounced her trouble organic diseage ofthe heart, and she may die at any moment.The Queen had been advised of the worst.The death of the Queen will bring about the most serious of political complications, and already wirepullers are at work to secure control of the islands in the interest of England.Honolulu newspapers dare not print à word of what is happening, but the people are in a great fever of excitement.Americans in Honolulu will make a desperate attempt to prevent the islands from falling into British control.The father of the heir to the throne, who is an Englishman, will work to his utmost inthe interests of the British.Americans w:ll take advantage of any lapse of time to prevent Princess Kalulani from taking the

heart disease.She has not had any attack of this malady for à long time.Bhe wrote me by the last steamer that her trip around the islands did her mach good, and she never felt better.The only thing that worries her is the responsibility of her office.Robert J.Creighton, the New Zeafand Government agent here, spent years in Hawaii, and keeps in constant tjuch witu island affairs: He laughed at

counsel for Almy, held a protracted conference with Judge Blodget today relative to fixing the time and place for the trial.After much discussion it was arranged to bave the trial begin at Plymouth Tuesday, Nov.17, when the term of tha Supreme Court for the eastern judicial district of Grafton county will convene.À special jury of 75 to 100 wili be summoned from which the 12 good men and true will be selected to try the mur- erer, Although there has been à report that Mr.Remick, on acconnt of being United States district attorney, may retire as Almy\u2019s junior counsel, 1t by\u201d no means follows that he will do so, the probablli- ties now being that he will continue to assist in the defence.Although there has been a popular demand tor an early trial,the prosecuting officers say that when a man\u2019s life is depending there should be no unseemly baste and the accused should be giyen every opportunity to prepare his defence, Almy\u2019s counsel declined to state what their lines of detence will be.Judge Allen is assigned to hold tho regular term at Plymouth, but as two judges must preside in capital cases under the law of this State it is thought that Chief Justice Doe will sit with him at the murder trial.trea Kicked Her to Death, New York, Oct, 7.\u2014Patrick Brady, of Avondale, N.J., was locked up in the county jail in Newark yesterday,charged with the murder of his wife.On Monday pight be entered a saloon in the former place and said that his wife had died during the ¢ay while he was at work, Being known to be of a violent temper, and having trequently

by the county physician showed that the woman had been beaten and kicked.Two of her left ribs had been fractured by blows and driven throug\" result.- ber left lung.So TURKISH BRIGANDS, An Attempt to Hold up @ Traio\u2014Incom- petency of the Palice.CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct.7,\u2014A band of brigands yesterday, in spite of the recent diplomatic action of Germany and France and of the efforts of the Porte to suppress brigandage, made a desperate attempt to wreck and rob a passenger train.The latter was passing along a desolate portion of ;the Haidar-Pachaia- midt Railroad, when the engineer discovered that something was wroug along the rails ahead of his train.The train was brought th a standstill as soon as possible and an examination of the line showad that the much dreaded brigands had torn up the rails and so damaged the roadbed that had the train not been stopped in time an accident would have surely happened.The brigands, as soon as they saw that their plan had miscarried, instead of attacking the train, decamped- This is only one of a series of similar outrages upon the part of Turkish brigands and in which foreigners have usually suffered at the expense of the Porte, the latter having to indemnify the governments to which the foreigners owed allegiance for ransoms, etc, collected by the brigands.a SHOT HIM IN COLD BLOOD, A Negro Laborer Answers His Boss and is Fatally Wounded.Rous, N.Y., Oct, 6.\u2014D, O.Saunders, a contractor of the Adirondack and St.Lawrence Railroad, near White Lake Corners, in anger fatally shot one of his colored laborers five times yesterday.The victim\u2019s name is William Davia.Yesterday morning the negro came to work as usual, and as he and another man were plowing, the boss found fault with them because they did not plow fast enough.The negro replied sharply, whereupon the boss shot at him tiye times, .All of the bullets took effect, three in the negro\u2019s leg, another in the side, and the fifth struck another workman in the hip with no serious result.The negro was taken to a farm house.He will probably die.: Saunders has been captured.Death of Sir J.P.Hennessy, Loxpon, Oct.7.\u2014Coupled with the announcement this morniuæ that Mr.Parnell had died lest night was the news that 8ir John Pope Hennessy, member of Parliament for North Kilkenny, was also dead.Bir John Pope Hennessy, it will be remembered, immediately after the exposures in the O'Shea divorce case in December, 1890, contes:ed the North Kilkenny election backed by Mr.Parnell\u2019s opponents and defeated the Parnel- lite candidate, a Mr.Vincent Scully, by 1,147 votes.There was a great and possibly the greatest test of strength in that district, between the Parnellites and Mec- Carthyites, and the defeat of Mr.Scully, no doubt, counted for a great deal in the future geries of disasters which befell the Irish leader.[Bir John Pope Hennessy, K.C.M.G,, Knight of Malta, was the son of Mr, John Hennessy, of Ballyhennessy , Co.Kerr y.He was born 1n Cork in 1834, educated at Queen\u2019s College, Cork, and was called to the bar at the Inner Temple, in 1861.He entered the House of Commons as wember for the King's County in 1859.His election address in 1859 was the firat in which Mr.Disraeli\u2019s name was mentioned.He expressed bis confidence in the Imperial policy ot Mr.Disraeli, but as à National Conservative reserved en- \u2018ire independence to hbimselt in everything relating to Ireland.Mr.Her- netsy was the first Roman Catnolic Conservative in Parliament.He carried the Select Committee in opposition to Lord Palmerston\u2019s Government for throwing open appointments In the Civil Service of the United Kingdom to ublic competition, and he amended the rish Poor Law, so as to provide for the rearing of pauper children out of workhouses.He received the thanks of the Roman Catholic committee of England for the Prison Ministers\u2019 Act, and an address of thanks from the miners of Great Britain for some amendments he secured in the Mines Regulation Bill, Mr, Hen- pessy drew the attention of the House of Commons to the decline of the population of Ireland, and urged the Government to keep the people at home by amending the Irish land laws and reclaiming the waste lands.He opposed the Government system of education in Ireland, on the ground that the so-called National system was anti-national.He voted for Church-rates, and in favor of the Church of England in England, but supported concurrent endowment in Ireland, by which the Irish ecclesiastical property founded before the Reformation would be restored to the Roman Catholic Church, and some ancient abbeys in Ireland revived.In foreign affairs he exposed the conduct of the Russian Government in Poland,and moved an address to the Crown to carry out the stipulations of the treaty ot Vienna, in favor of the Poles; he criticised the conduct of Lord Palmerston and Mr Gladstone in their attacks on the Pope ;and supported the independence of the Sovereign Pontiff, He oppoted the war in China and the bombardment of ports in Japan, bat supported the northern States during the American civil war.He voted against the New Zealand war, but supported the claims of the Australian colonies to complete legislative independence of Down- ing-street.He was appointed Governor of Labuan in 1867; of the West African settlements in 1872; of the Bahamas in 1873; of the Windward Islands in 1875; of Hong Kong in 1877, and of the colony of Mauritius in December, 1882.On more than one occasion his conduct as Goyer- nor has provoked remonstrances, the latest instance being his disagreement with Mr.Clifford Lloyd, which led to questions in Parliament and the despatch of Sir Hercules Robinson to Mauritius to investigate the quarrel.He was created a Knight Commander of the Order of Bt, Michael and George in April, 1880.He contributed papers to the \u201cProceedings\u201d of the Royal Society and British Association, to The Philosophical Magazine, The Contemporary Review and The Nineteenth Century, and he published in 1883 & volume on \u201cRaleigh in Ireland, with his letters on Irish affairs,and some coptemporary documents.\u201d He has been hon.secretary to the mathematical section of the British Association and chairman of the Repression of Crime section oft he Social Scienca Congress ] THE GREAT PARNELL DEAD.The Celebrated Irish Champion Passes Away Suddenly from & Chill Caught Last Week.POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE.The Man Who Has Fought for the Freedom of Ireland for Many Years Dies Before the People Know that He Has Even Been 8ick\u2014What the Effect May Bo-A Sketch of His Life, LonnoN, Oct, 7.\u2014Great Britain and I:eland were startled this morning by the utterly unlooked for announcement th.t Charles Stewart Parnell, the noted Irish leader, had died suddenly yesterday evening at his home in Brighton.It has been well known that Mr.Parnell has not enjoyed the best of health for years past, and it has been noticed and widely commented upon that since the O\u2019Shea divorce deyelopments became a matter ot publie notoriety, and since political troubles came upon him that the great Irish member of Parliameat had grown thinner and that he had perceptibly aged in appearance.But nobody expected to hear of his death and no inkling as to his sickness bad reached the newspapers.Only at this hour (1 p.m.) has it been possible to obtain details in regard to the death of Mr.Parnell, He died at his home, Walsingham Terrace, Brighton, at 11.30 last night, His death is due to a chill.A physician was called in, with the result that the patient was ordered to take to his bed.This was on Friday last, and from that time Mr.Parnell lost strength and finally succumbed.The exact nature of the disease which caused the death of the Irish leade r 18 not made known at present.From the day he took to his bed, however, the state of Mr.Parpell\u2019s health bas been guch as to necessitate the constant attendance of two physicians, but in spite of their incessant and untiring efforts to prolong or save life, Mr, Parnell gradually sank lower and lower, until he expired in the arms of Mrs.Parnell, who is utterly prostrated by the shock experienced through her husbund\u2019s death.[Charles Stewart Parnell, M.P., was born in 1846, at Avondale, Co.Wicklow.He is descended from an old English family that passed over from Congleton, Cheshire, to Ireland, and many of his ancestors have played prominent parts in history, Thomas Parnell, the poet, was ore of the family.Mr.Parneil\u2019s great grand-father, Sir John Parnell held tor many years the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Irigh Parliament, and resigned rather than vote for the Act of Union; and Sir Henry Parnell, Sir John\u2019s son, after many yea:s\u2019 service in the House of Commons, was raised t» the peerage as Lord Congleton in 184}.Mr, Parvell's mother is a daughter of Admiral Charles Stewart, a celebratad American naval officer, Mr.Parnell .was educated at various private schools in England, and afterwards went to Magdaien College, Cambridge.After à tour of some duration in the United States, he returred to his home in Wick- low, and was High Sheriff of the county in 1874.He made his first attempt to enter public li e in the same year,contesting tiie County of Dublin with the laie Colonel Taylor,on tke latter's acceptance of office as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster in the second administration of Lord Beaconsfield.He was defeated by an overwhelming majority, but in the following year (1875) he was returned for the County of Meath, in succession to the late Mr.John Martin, For some time he took no prominent part in the proceedings ot Parliament, but during the session of 1876 he attracted some a:- tention by engaging in one or two pro longed and stubborn conflicts with the Government.In February, 1877, he made his first appearance as & legislator, introducing \u201cThelrishChurchActA mendmeat Bill,\u201d the object of which was to facilitate the purchase of their holdings by the tenantry of the disestablished Irish Church; the bill was throwa out by 150 to 110 votes.The introduction of the Prisons Bill, by Sir Richard (then Mr.) Cross, gave rise to the first real deval- opment of the principle of what was known as the \u201cactive\u201d policy to the Irish, and tbe policy of \u201cobstruction\u201d to the English people.The various clauses ot the measure were obstinately opposed; and when attempts were made to force the biil through at a late hour, there were repeated motions for adjournment, A similar course wag pursued où the Mutiny Bull, hostility being chiefly directed against the flogging clauses, and scenes of much passion and excitement frequently occurred.Mr.Courtney, Mr.Ë, Jenkins, and other men were strongly opposed to the South Africa Bill, which authorized, among other things, the annexation of the Transvaal, Mr, Parnell joSned in the attack upon the Government, and, on July 31, the House sat for 22 hours, from & quarter to four on Tuesday till two in the afternoon of the following Wednesday.Mr.Parnell came into serious collision in the course of this session, both with Sir Stafford Northcote, the then leader of the House of Commons, and Mr, Batt, then leader of the Irish party.Bir Stafford Northcote moved a resolution on one occasion for Mr.Parnells suspension, which after varying fortunes, had finally to be abau- doned, in order to give way for some new rules against \u2018\u2019obstraction\u201d generally.Mr.Butt condemned the policy of Mr.Parnell, both by letters and Bpeecbes, but it soon became apparent that the action uf the younger man was the more popular among the Irish veo- ple.In the beginning of 1878, Mr.Par- Dell was elected president, .instead of Mr.Butt, of the Irish organization in Englaud, known as the Home Rale Confederation, and from this time forward Mr.Butt practically ceased to be the leader of the Irish party.The sessions of 1878 and 1879 were practically a repetition of the proceedings of 1877.\u201d In 1878, a committee was appointed to discuss the best means for putting down \u201cob- struction,\u201d and Mr.Parnell was appointed à member, and took an active pars in examining the various witnesses called.The hostility of Mr.Parnell was chiefly directed in these years to the use of the lash; and, finally, in 1879, he succeeded in having it abol- isbed.At the close of the session of 1879, Mr.Parnell entered upun 8 new and important epoch in his career.There had been a succession of three bad harvests in Ireland; the country was threatened with deep and wide- Spread distress und the time was ripe for starting a new movement for reform of the relations between landlord and tenant.A meeting had been held in Irishtown, County Mayo, in the previous April, but it was not till June that Mr.Parpell formally joined the new land movement.It was on this occasion that he uttered as the keynote of the coming struggle, the words, Keep a firm grip of our homesteads.\u201d On the October fol- owing, the \u201cIrish National Land League \u201d was founded, aud Mr.Parnell was elected the first president.The objects ot the new organization were declared to be first, \u201c to bring about a re- ducticn of rackrents,\u201d secondly, \u201cto facil itate the obtaining of the ownership of the soil by the occupiers.\u201d In December of the same year he sailed for America, in order to raise funds for the relief of the distress and for starting the new organization ; lectured in a large number of towns, before sey- eral State Legislatures, and finally before the House of Representatives at Washington.The honor of addressing the last assembly had previously been conferred upon but three persons,\u2014Latay- ette, Bishop England, of Cherleston.and Kossuth.Meantime, Parliament was dissolved.Mr.Parnell hurried home, took an active part in the general election, and was himeelf elected for three constituencies,\u2014Meath, Mayo and Cork city; he selected the last named constituency.At the meeting of the new Irish party after the election, he was chosen leader of the Irish party instead of Mr.Shaw, who had succeeded Mr.Butt.Immediately after the meeting of the new Parliament, Mr.Parnell called for the introduction of a measure to deal with the Irish land question, and shortly after the Government brought in the Disturbance Bill, which, having been passed by the House of Commons, was afterwards rejected by the House of Lords.In the autumn of 1880 he took an active part in organizing the Land League, which rapidly grew to be tue most powerful of modern Irish movements.n Noyember of this year, informations were laid by the Irish Atturney-General against Mr.Parnell and several other members of the Land League executive; tbe trial opened at Dublin on Dec, 28, and finally, after 19 days\u2019 hearing, ended in a disagreement of the jury.In the opering of the session of 1884, the Goy- ernment brought in a Coercion Bill, and to this measure, as well as to an Arms Bill, Mr.Parnell and his colleagues offered a fierce and obstinate opposition prolonged over seven weeks.There were many exciting and tumultuous sceues, and on Feb.8, he and 34 of his followers were removed by the Sergeant- at-Arms for causing obstructions in the Houseot Commens.The Land Act having been passed into law, Mr.Parnell presided ata Land League convention, at wbich it was resolved that the \u201c Act should be tested \u201d by means of certain selected cases; be was present afterwards at several large Land League demonstrations ; and on Oct.13 he was arrested and conveyed to Kilmainham jail.The Government immediately afterwards proclaimed the Land League as an illegal aesociation, and Mr.Parnell and bis collesgues issued the \u201cNo Rent\u201d manifesto.Mr.Parnell remained in Kil- mainham jail till April 10, 1832, when he was released on parole in orcer to attsnd the funeral of a relative.O1 May 2 following he was formally released, as wel es his colleagues, Mr.John Diilon, M.P., and Mr.O'Kelly, M.P.Then followed the resignation of Mr.Forster and Lord Cowper, the murders in the Phoenix Park and the stormy debates on the Crimes Bill.The freedom of the city had been voted to Mr.Parnell during hi imprisonment by Dublin and other places, and on Jan.3, 1882, he and Mr.Dillon attended in the City Hall, Dublin, to receive the honor.In tbe session of 1882 he took an active part in procuring the passing of the Arrears Act and ot the Tramways and Laborers Actsin the ges- sion of 1883.À national subscription to Mr.Parnell wes started in the spring of 1883, and a sud of £35,000 is said to have been raised among the Irish at home and in America, and presented to him.Hestill, however, retained his popular- 1ty and his power.The Land League was revived under the name of the National League, and Mr.Parnell took hig place at its head.He inspired all the policy of the Irish Parliamentary party during the session of 1884 and 1885; and on the dissolution, when the Irish people first voted on a general household suffrage, he nominated every Nationalist candidate, and came back to Westminster with 85 followers.It was to meet this new situation that Mr.Gladstone proposed home rule, in which, of course, he was supported by Mr.Parnell and the whole strength of his party.After the defeat and the new elections, Mr.Parnell proposed a bill to suspend evictions and practically to reduce rent by one- half.The bill did not pass.The triumph of Mr.Parnell over the Piggott conspiracy to connect him with those who sympathized with the Phenix Park murders, bis subsequent fall from politi« cal power as lrish leader consequent upon the O'Shea exposure, are events well known toall.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Vessel Blown to Pleces.LoNDox Oct,

which floated to land is the Nnameboard, containing the word \u201cWave,\u201d The fate of the crew is unknown, but it is feared that all hands have been lost.\u2014\u2014- No Revolt in Guatemala,

AGGRESSIVE Abbott Wants Angers and Girounard\u2014Oha- plean Demands Promotion and Wants Oulmet Taken In\u2014Caron Wants to Remain In and Ives Wants to Get In\u2014 Peter White for the Public Works, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD, Orrawa, Oct.7.\u2014The Cabinet at Ottawa is in the thross of reconstruction, and already there are rumors of serious disagreements.Chapleau is aggressive.He does not take kindly to Lieutenant-Governor Angers being taken into the Cabinet.That would mean that Angers would be the rising and Cha- .pleau the setting sun, The Secretary of State demands the portfolio of railways and canals, Premier Abbott has not gone the length of telling him that he cannot have it, but has intimated that it would be advisable for him to go easy.Caron does net want to go out into the cold cold world with nothing but an empty title to comfort him: and as Chap'eau wants Ouimet taken in with him, and Ives wants to get in, while the Pre- mwier himself wants to take in Angers and Girouard, it will be seen that the new Cabinet-maker has a plethora jof ministerial timber on hand, some of it of very inferior material.It is said that in order to get over the difficulty it is proposed to proclaim the act passed some sessions ago increasing the number of ealaried Ministers.If that is done Mr, Girouard will be made Bolicitor-General, Mr.Ouimet will be made Minister of Militia, and if Chapleau, Caron and Ives insist on being Ministers they will have to accept \u201cinferior\u201d positions.It is supposed the department of Railways and Canals will goto the Maritime Provinces, and the department of Public Works to Ontario.Peter White, of Renfrew, will probably be the lucky man.Indeed, he seems to be the only man yet definitely fixed upon for & seat in the new Cabinet.The Ontario men do notseem to be pressing their claims, preferring to await the turn of events.The Maritime Provinces men are in the same position.The pressure, the demand for office comes from Quebec and from men that Prémier Abbott would gladly be rid of.And yet he does not geem to nave the courage of his convictions.He knows the country wants a clean Government and yet he hesitates to adopt the only course which will secure that desidera- tum\u2014dropping the tainted and incom- petentmen and defying their boodle following, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 EGAN

arrived here.Her commander, Captain Clifford, died at sea on Sept.24 Wasmiwaron, D.C., Oct.7\u2014There is M thing in the official despatches received at the State and Navy departments from Chili tor indicate any pronounced change in the situation there so far as tho relations between Minister Eagan and the Junta are concerned.Lhe story cabled fiom Paris by the Dunlap-Dalziel Agency, that Balmaceda is in hiding in the United States Legation at Bantiago is absolutely discredited at the Department ot State.Two cablegrams were received at the department from Minister Eagan announcing the suicide of the ex-President, and in addition, the Ministers from European countries sent the same information in the most positive form to their governments, Although the ways of diplomacy ars sometimes a trifle devious, it cannot be presumed for a moment that all of the representatives of the powers in Santiago would unite in a false statement of fact.Respecting the treatment of refugees, alleged to be in asylum in the American Legation, it is believed that no serious opposition will be made by the Junta to their safe conduct out of Chili, as this practice, although not tounded upon absolute right, has beretofore been obsery- ed in similar cases without effectual objection, The cruiser San Francisco, which was to have gone directly to Valparaiso afier touching at Callao, is still at the latter port, Some of her machinery became disarranged on the way from Payta, and when the necessary repairs are made she will proceed to her distination.The United States Consul at Iquique, Chili, in arecent despatch to the Secretary of Siate, says that the marking of bags of soda nitrate shipped to the United States from Chili is attended with loas and delay, and that if the requirement 18 insisted upon the directors of the nitrate estabtishments in Chili will direct the current of their shipments ts Europe.The despatch was reterred to the Treag- ury Department, aud in reply the Secretary ofthe Treasury has informed the Becretary of State that the department, under date of Jan.28, 1891, held that the provisions of section 6 of the Tarift act, do not contemplate the marking of coverings of crude or other substances of a moist or deliquescent nature,like cartain kinds of sugar in mats, &c., where the permanent marking of the packages by any means whatever would be totally impracticable.In the opinion of the department, he says, the last mentioned ruling should be applied in this case, and if, as alleged, the marks on bags of nitrate of soda would become obliterated in course of transportation to the United States, the bags may be delivered upon entry without the requirements of marking of the name of the country of origin thereon.He suggests that the Consul at Iquique h be notified of this ruling, + MARITIME PROVINCE NOTES, An Old Merchant Found Dead\u2014Refuse to 4 coept Compensation, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.HaLirax.N.8., Oct.7.\u2014Robert West, an old

on Account of Common, Brundell Maple, M.P., the man who bought Common from Sir Frederick Johnstone and Lord Arlington for $75,000 and purchased a yearling colt by St.Simon out of Plaisanterie (a French-bred Cesarewitch winner) ab Tattersalls the same day for $30,000, thus beating two records, is the son of a great furnitare dealer in Tottenham Court road, who, beginning by selling chairs in the street half a century ago, has made a tremendous fortune and is probably the largest dealer in furniture and house furaish- ing goods in the world.The son, besides being a member of Parliament, is a great swell, drives a four-ic-hand, and affects all the amusements and pleasures of the nobility and gentry.A story is told of a verbal encounter petween Maple and that noble outcast, the Marquis ot Ailesbury, which occurred last Derby day.Maple tooled a four-in- hand out to Epsom with a party of ladies and gentlemen, and in the jam of ve- Licles at the Hull brought up behind the Marquis, who, in his usual shabby coat ard bad hat, was driving a love horse attached to a very peculiar looking vee hicle, resembling a small omnibus, in which were seated the Marchioness, known on the music hall stage as Doliy Tester, and several of her offspring.\u201cHulloa, Ailesbury,\u201d Maple called to om, \u201cwhere does that \u2019bus of yours run 0 \u201cRuns up to Tottenham Cours road, let you off

more comprehensive plan than any other breeder in this country.He has a farm in Essex County, England, and seeks to breed upon it asire of surpassing quality.In a recent talk he compared English and American racehorses, and said: \u201c The English horse is larger, bas a better bead, is better looking, and the average English horse has more in him than the average American horse.American stake winners in England, such as Fox- hall snd Iroquois, were phenomena, It is a question if they could have beaten such English phenomena as Ormonde and Gladiateur.The average English horse is 14 pounds superior to the aver- sgo Arrerican horse.La Fleche could beat His Highness, and there are five or pix 2-year-olds whom I saw with the ability to give anything in America, ex- cept His Highness, 14 pounds.My colt St.Fiorian is not to be compared with Pis Higriness.St.Florian has great speed, but is a coward.\u201d While in Eogland Mr.Morris bought four of the best bred English fillies, one esch by Hampton, Sterling, Hermit,and Petrarch.All are to be bred to the best sires in England.With them on the Morris farm in Essex are nine American mares\u2014Jepnie B., Ermine, Active, Lizzie Baker,

Ochiltree, and Starlight, Cowmpaesion and Homeopathy by Britan- nie.The English fillies are in foal by Bendigo, Carlton and Sheen.Reckon, Ambulance and Georgia are to be sent to England later on and bred to English sires, such as Galopin, Satiety, Timothy, Minting, Frears Balsam, Sheen, Petrarch, Donovan or Ayrshire.Three fillies and a colt bred on the Morris farm in England are coming here early in 1892 and will be tried against American- bred youngsters.They are a filly by Fernandez out of In Her Place, a filly by Fernandez out of Sister Cheerful, a filly by Barcaldine out of Pink Thorn, and a colt by Hampton out of Jennie B.\u201cFailing to buy a great English horse,\u201d says Mr.Morris, \u201c1 sent the American mares to te bred to the best English stallions, in the hcpe that I can get what I want in that way.In Englaad, as everywhere else, tte majority oi horses are second-rate.\u201d ay.A Bit of Buncombe.The story that Jeckey Bergen intended going to Australia, and that he had a realed to the Beard of Control for such an amendment of his sentence for dis - bedierce at the post as would enanls him to ride there, was a rich bit.of buncombe.It was excelled, however, as a bit of humor by tho semi-official statement that it would not be complied with.In the first place, Bergen did not apply, and in the next the Board of Control has just the same authority in regulating or directing or guiding the sport 1n Australia as the Three Tailors of Tooley-street bad in the government of the British Empire, Their senterce of Bergen applies solely and entirely to the tracks controlled by tbe Brooklyn, the Coney Island, Monmouth Park and New York Jockey clubs, for the reason that a suspension ina miror matter of diecipline and not one for fraud of any kind.If Bergen wished to ride he need not go £o far as Australia.He could ride in England.or if he did not wish to go to England, he could ride inthe West, and would be welcomed there, where, if there 1s not so much snobbishness, there is a good deal more of olain, every-day justice.If he were dot a man of determined character, that 18 where he would go and give up the fight against the cliques with which the turfsin tbe East is becoming honey- combad\u2014cliques that even got at his own stable and led his owners to believe that with somebody else up its horses would win more money.They listened and they lost, and they have only themselves to blame for it.\u2014N.Y.Press.BASEBALL.An Investigation Into the Charges Against the New Yorks.New York, Oct.7.\u2014For the first time in the history of the game of baseball since the memorable occasion on which the League purified itself by the expulsion of those dishonest players, Craven, Hall and Devlin, has a charge of unfairness worthy of attention been made.Mc st astonishing of all, the management of the New York Baseball Club is the defendantin the case.This is bringing the question home with a vengeance, and the outcome will te watched with the greatest interest.For some time past the charges against the New York club, which were openly made and stoutly reiterated, were overlooked by the local officials aod laughed at by gome of the more ardent admirers of the tram.Finally the allegations of unfsir- ness became so numerous and were so general that the n.anagement felt ealled upon to take decisive action.Unwige advisers insisted that the affair would amount to only a nine day\u2019s talk and then be forgotten, while others, with a deeper interest in the welfare of the game, stoutly maintained that the charges should be thoroughly sifted, and, if there was any foundation for them, tbe offenders should be thoroughly punished.On the other hand, if the charges were groundless, the public skould also be apprised of that fact, and the game cleared of suspicion.The assertion that all the talk of une fairness came from Chicago was not borne out by the facts, as a long, deep growl has gone up from the baseball patrons of New York city, who, first of all, demand fair play, and, that having been secured, are second to none in applauding the victors.The prime cause of the present trouble is the recent lors of five games in Boston by the New York team, which defeats enabled the Bostons to overtake the Chicagos in the race for the pennant.The charge msde by the Chicago management, and echoed by fair-minded patrons all over the country, is that the New York management did not put its strongest team in the games at Boston, the main allegation being that Rusie, tbe strongest pitciier in the team, was left at home, while inferior pitchers were put in the box against a team that was then playing the strongest game of any in the country.Another point made is that Connor failed to play in the first three games at Boston, and that, in fact, no effort was made to put ateam in the field that could reasonably be expected to make a stand against the Bostons.?Meese.Day, Mutrie and Ewing enter an emphatic denial to the general charge of having purpogely weakened the New York team.Th eyadmit that Rusie was left at home, and their explanstions as to the reason do not agree.President Day said that Rusie was left at home because be had worked hard and was entitled to a rest.He said, so far as he knew, Rusie was uninjured.Manager Mutrie said the reason Rusie stayed at home was because his elbow was lame and be was not in fi condition to pitch.Capt.Ewing said Rusie was hit in the leg with a batted ball in the last game at Brooklyn, and was go lame he couldn\u2019t pitch.That was the reason he did not go to Boston.In the case of John Ewing it is set forth tbat his foot was injured in a recent game and was so swollen he couldn\u2019t get a shoe on.As to Connor, he missed a train, and that 1s the reason he didn\u2019t play.Buckley started to catch in one of the games and was injured.The managers also state that, had Rusie and the other absent players taken part in the games, they could not bave won, as Boston was playing with wonderful strength.The managers also go to some length to combat the imagipary assertion that the New York team deliberately played poor ball at Boston and thus permitted Boston to win- easily.No such charge has been ma ie, .the only claim being that the New York managers did not put up as strong team in the field ag possible.The position taxen by those who make the charges 1s thatthe conflicting statements as to Rosie being kept st home oniy go to prove that nothing ailed that pitcher, and that he was fully able to go in thas box at Boston.In the case of John Ewing it is admitted that he received an injury to his foct 1n the game with Pnila- delphia at te Polo grounds on sept.21.He turned his ankls and limped off the field.After resting his ankle until Sent.27 be was not considered in condition to pitch.The games at Boston were plaved on Sept.28,29 and 30.On Oct.1, following the day of the two last games at Boston, Ewiog entered the box at the Polo grounds and pitched the Brooklyns out for five hits, one of them a scratch.He showed no sign of lameness and ran the bases as well as ever he did.The claim is made that if Ewing was able to pitch in his best torm on Thursday, Oct.1, that he certainly should have been able to go in the box at Boston the day previous.A point made by the managers is to the effect that New York had no chance -to win the pennant and the result of the remaining games could not change the position of the team.Therefore there Was no good reason why the team Should go to Boston and fight as though the pennant depended on the result.The com, lainants counter heavily, as follows: At the time the Chicagos last played in New York city, on Sept.17, 18 and 19,the New Ycrks had no earthly chance of getting better than third position, and yet they played a game that, for strength and all-around perfection, has never been excelied by the New York or any other team.Rusie and John Ewing had been saved for some days previous to tie arrival of the Chicagos, and their work in the box was superb.Rusie pitched two games and Ewing the other.\u2018Lhe result of these efforts on the part of the team and its management was that the Chicagoes were beaten three straight games in a crushing manner.After dis- pcsing of the Chicagos the New Yorks turned their attention to the Brooklyns and thrashed them three out of four games, Ruise pitching two games in one afternoon.These are the arguments pro and con that have passed between the defenders of the team and those who make the charges.Meantime the public, on whose support the life of the game depends, has been looking on with great uneasiress.Realizing that inaction at this stage of the game would be fa:al to the interests of the pastime, the directors of the New York Club have aroused themselves and will take vigorous action.A meeting of the Board of Directors was held yesterday aft-rnoon, and, after some discussion, the following resolution was adopted: \u2018Whereas: It has been charged in the public press throughout the United States that the management of the New York Ball Club so weakened its team in the five games recently played at the city of Bosten with the Boston Club that it was impossible for the New York Club to win any of said games; and Vhereas.Such à charge is manifestly injurious to the business of this company, aud also to the national game of baseball; therefore, be it Resolved.That the Executive Committee of this company be, and it hereby 1s directed to make an immediate and full investigation of the public charges above referred to and report the result of its investigation to this board at a meeting to be held on Monday, Oct.12, 1891.At the close of the meeling Mr.Spald- ing said : \u201cWe ghall immediately set on foot a thorough investigation, and the testimony of all who can throw any light on the matter will ha secured.If 1t 18 possible to get at the bottom of the affair we shall do so.\u201d Cleveland Men AllSigned.CLEVELAND, Oct.7.\u2014While the Boston League Club has been busy signing its men, the Cleveland League management finished up with its players on Saturday, and the team is practically completed for 1892.The last man was sigued before the last game, and the following contracts are now on file with Secretary Hawley: McAleer, lett field; Davis, centre field; Burkett, right field; Young, vitcher; Shearon, pitcher; Tebeau, third base (he will captain and manage the team as well); Childs, second base; Virtue, first base; Zimmer, catcher.The latter is bemefted by a three-year contract, which does not expire until Janu ary, 1893.Doyle agreed to terms yesterday.In addition to the above the clob has signed Cuppy, a promising young pitcher, and has come to terms with another youngster in an Ohio league.It is stated positively by the management thas a pitcher of great excellence has been signed.His name is withheld through personal reasons.- There is also but little doubt that Jack O'Connor will be with the local team next season.He has been here two weeks, and Tebeau thinks he is a good catcher.The Association had an agent here for a week, and he was joined by a second, but they did not succeed in getting a man to leave the Cleveland team.Von der Ahe offered indgcements in the way of salary, but th& Cleveland players made terms of their own accord, and a better satisfied club never disbanded in the city.Burkett, Dayis, and Doyle were worked upon a)' one night by the Association men.luis stated upon the best authority that Comiskey will not be with the Brov ns next season, but that he will be at the head of one of the promirent League clubs.TROTTING, The Great Trotting Meeting Which Opens Next Week.The trotting meeting that will attract attention all over the country will be the great Kentucky Trotting Horse Breeders\u2019 Association meet in Kentucky on Oct.12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17.This is a feast of good things that all horsemen want to be present at.Among the visitors at Lexington who will go from this vicinity will be the Bonner family\u2014Robert, David and A.A; John H.Shultz, Major Dickinson, H.M, Whitehead, C.H.Chat- field and J.E.McLoughlin of Utica.owner of Repetition and the 4-year-ol mare Boohommie, by Red Wilkes.From Philadelphia will go ex-Mayor Fitler, William Singerley and a large party.The feature, of course, of the splendid program will be the $8000 match race between Nancy Hanks and Allerton, but every other race has filled well and none will be declared off.The Lexington, \u2018Woodburn and Bonner stakes are attracting unusual attention, In the Lexington, cracks, Monbars, 2-year-old record 2.193; Ralph Wilkes\u2019 2-year-old record 2.21%; and American will meet for the first time.Bell Archer, the great mare that recently rounded the Cambridge City track in 2.163, Turner's Happy Bee, Dr.Sparks, 2.15}, and Valisea, last years res cord 2.17, will meet in the Woodburn, In the Bonner stake there will be a battle between the California colt, Faustina, 3-year old record 2.20, and Evangeline, one of Kentucky's prides which made a record of 2.28% last year as a 2-year-old.It is certain to be à great race between the champion stallion and the mare who is all but the queen of the turf.One thing, though, why should Nancy Hanks or Allerton be expected to beat the record in the race ?Thé race isnot like a trial ! agairst the watch.In a race against ! time a horse's driver does not bave tu ( conserve speed for other heats as he i does in a match race or a race with a : number of other horses.Experts d'sagree on the coming struggle, thas is, neither the mare nor the stallion is ye: .a pronounced favorite.One authority says that * Nancy Hanks beat Allerton in an actual race 1n the very fast time of 2:12§ and 2:12 on his own track, where she was at bome, and there i8 no reason to suppose she cannot repeat the performance.Mr.E.C.Walker, \u201cVeritas\u201d of the Chicago Horseman, who i8 a skillful driver and trainer, ss well a8 a writer, rather faucies the stallion.Mr.Walker does not think there 1s very much difference between a kite shaped and a regulation track, an- lees with very game and very long striding horses.Indeed, be thinks that the short stretches, which encourage a trotter to think he has only a short distance to go, are preferable for many animals, and instances Nelson's 2:10} at the kite shaped track at Independence, which he very shortly afterward beat on à circular course.He reasons that Naucy Hanks should be beaten by Allerton because the stailion was very shortly out of the stud when they met before, while she was a seasoned campaigner, and yet he made her trot the three.fastest heats on record.A Great Two-Year-Old.The Caton Farm of Joliet has a great oung horse in Red Heart, 2 years, by Red Wilkes, out of Sweetheart, 2:22}, by fultan\u2014Minnehaha, who was the first 2-year-oid to beat 2:30\u2014her 2:26} in 1890 teing the 2-year-old record until Fred ( rocker made à new one.Red Heart won & split heat race at Janesville last week, trotting the second heat in 2:29%.After the race A.J.Caton was offered a t ig sum for the colt, but he is not for sale.He is destined to take Don Cos- tack\u2019s place at the head of the Caton farm.The colt was bred by Ed Stokes of New York, who owned Sweetheart, and cost a large price as a yearling, TRE WHEEL, \u2014\u2014\u2014 Howell and Robb Will Race Any Men in the World, - Messrs, Howell and Robb, the English professionals, are out with a challenge to race any men in the world, Ralph Temple, Willie Windle, or Arthur Zimmerman preferred.It is absurd for either man to hope to get on a match with the two latter racers, considering that Win.dle and Zimmerman are amateurs, while the Englishmen are rot.A Long Distance Travelled, Messrs.Magoon, Bunker and Binney arrived bere from Littletown on Sanday night, having travelled all the way on the whesl.They came through the White Mountains, Platteburg, Burlington, Rouges Point, St.Johns and thence to Lapraire and Longuieil, They crossed the ferry and rode to the St.Lawrence Hall.Yesterday morning they went to Quebec, intending to ride back, but the rain prevented them and they returned by train, and lefs for home last night, taking train for Magog, and from there they will wheel to Stan- stead.While here they were taken in charge by Louis Rubenstein and visited the M, A, A.grounds and other points of interest and expressed themselves as well pleased with everything they saw.Mr.Binney belongs to the Somerville Bicycle Club and Messrs.Magoon and Bunker to the bicycle ¢lab of Littletown, Mr.R.Pierce, of the Walpool Bi¢ycle Club, of Walpool, Maes., is at the Hall, and will remain in the city for

miles from his journey\u2019s end, and, in spite of all efforts, he could not be awakened for seven hours.1t was originally stated that he had beaten his own record by 21 hours.This, however, is not correct, as the right time has now been shown to be 144 hours.\u2014 THE RING.A Good Chance of Another International Fight.Since the announcement of the fact that Alf.Levy, the English bantam, was quite willing to fight Tommy Kelly, the Harlem Spider, the latter's manager has hunted Levy up and challenged him as directly as words permit.Levy replied straight enough that he was in it, bus his terms were pretty high.He said he wanted a purse of $1000 guaranteed, and he also demanded that & bes of $500 on the outside should be made.The size of the gloves to be u-ed was another subject that caused a long talk.Kelly wanted to have it with the \u201cskin tights,\u201d but to this Levy demurred.He said he was a stranger in this ecuntry and didn\u2019t have a single friend to talk for bim.He understecd that in case of police interference the exbibit of skin gloves ina court room would go far toward conviction of prize fighting, and he was shy of a desire for any such experience.He would consent to two-ounce gloves, and thought that Kelly shoud be satisfied with mittens ot that size, for you caa \u2019it \u2019ard enough with \u2019em,\u201d says he.\u201cIf this Spider carn\u2019t do me with two-ounce gloves,\u201d Levy said yesterday, \u201c\u2019e carn\u2019t do me at hall, and\u2019e knows hit.I knows bit, hany\u2019ow.\u201d The question of weight has been another subject of discueson.Levy elaims to be a bantam, pare and simple, and at first asked to have the bantam limit\u2014 105 pounds\u2014be the outside weight.The Kelly people seemed to prefer a little stretch of the limit, and Levy consented withous much hesitation.Kelly can weigh in at 108 if e loikes,\u201d said the Englishman.He\u2019s an independent and confident young man,this Levy,and says he has his own money to put up for a stake.The full details of the match will be agreed upon at The Illustrated News offiee this afternoon at 3 o\u2019clock.If the articles are signed by both sides the men will be compelled to deposit $100 each to guarantee appearance in the ring at weight, and the boys will have until about the middle of November to train in.A Fifteen Round Flight.AxpERsoN, Ind., Oct.7.\u2014At Middle town last night Tommy Hubbard of this city knocked Pleas Reed of Anderson outin a fifteen-round fight with two- ounce gloves.Both are light weights, and the fight was for blood

The Police Gazette office yesterday from London: The challerge of McCusker, of Lowell, the American champion swimmer, to James Nujtall, has been accepted by the latter.Nuttall will arrange a match with McCusker for apy amounbd fro a £500 up to £5000 a side and the chain- ponship of the world.The contest to be decided in England or America.The distance to be 100 yards up to one mile.Nuttall will

The Sporting Life.\u2014 ATHLETICS.Champion Shot Putter Gray Talks About the St, Louis Games, The Empire of yesterday says: Mr.George R.Gray, the champion shot putter, returned to Toronto from St.Louis yesterday.He says that the visiting athletes were splendidly treated at the Mcund City, but the track and surrounds ings were nothing to what they had at Rosedale.There was a good and very select crowd present.He was exceedingly sorry that he did not beat the crowd at Rosedale, but he was convinced that with the necessary number of tries to limber himself up he could have done so.He did not want to see Canada copy the United States, but he thought three tries were insufficient to test a man\u2019s merit at eho putting, or at any heavy-weight competition.He thought that at least five tries should be given, and that it would ba to the intore est of the Amatear Athletic Association if they would adopt a rule to that effect, Mr.Gray will take part in the New York Athletic Club games on the 17th, and that will close bis season for 1891.He trusts that the new Toronto Athletic Club will be a tremendous success, and fully believes that such men as Messrs.Carr and Or- ton only need the training and cars that such an organization can give them to beat the world.Every athlete agreed that but for his leg giving way Carr must have won the 100 at Rosedale, and have surprised everybody by his performance.Canada, Gray says, has lots of material to make the country famous the world over in athletics, but it needs development Such an institution as the Toronto Athletic Club will furnish means for that development, and the result will be that in a few years, instead of visitors trom the United States coming over here and carrying everything before them, Canadians will go over there and keep the cracks all busy to maintain the great reputation they now hold as record- breakers.He regretted that so much fault was found with the starting here, but with the splitting fractions of seconds in the 100 and 220-yard events that had now become common a starter could bardly be found to give general satisfac.on, Some Lively Settos.The athletic entertainment which takes place inthe Vics armory on Monday evening next ought to prove a big drawing card.The principal feature of course will be the six round setto between Dick Gutbrie ard Billy Hawking with big gloves and many are speculating on the robable outcome.Harry Powers and en Hogan will also meet and should make an interesting bout.There are several other contests on the bills besides a splendid program of vocal and instrumental music.Both Hawkins and Guthrie are getting in first class shape for their meeting, \u201cparer LACROSSE.Saturday\u2019s Game for the Thirteen Gold Medals in Montreal, Reports from Cornwall have it that the champions are practicing hard for the match on Saturday with the Sham- rccks for the 13 gold medals offered by several prominent gentlemen in the city.The game promises to be an exciting one and some good lacrosse will jbe witnessed.The Cornwalls are aware of the fact that the Shamrocks are working bard this week and look for victory.The match will commence at 3 o'clock and should the weather prove favorable a large attendance is certain.General Sporting Gossip.An offer of $10,660 by Billy Lakeland for the Western colt Curt Gunn was declined.Heis held at $15,000.Billy Nash is the man who, with Manager Selee, deseryes the most credit for the good work of the Bostons.The Chicagos drew over 47,000 people in their 10 games in Boston, and the series did not include any holiday, and only one Saturday.President Noel, of the Olympic Club, of New Orleans, has cabled Fred Johnson to know the latter\u2019s terms to fight Cal McCarthy in the Olympic Club, New Or- eans, Stovey leads the league in long hits, with 62\u201429 doubles, 20 triples and 16 home runs, Tiernan has made 56 doubles, triples and tourbaggers combined; Davis, 48; Connor, 47; Beckley, 43; Anson and Ryan, 41.Manager McGunnigle intimates that there is a scheme on foot by which the Brooklyn is to desert the League and go baek to the Association, and that Baltimore will take its place in the older organization.Eight players In the League and nineteen in the Association have batting averages better than ,300.Sutcliffe in forty-seven games leads the Association with a recorn of .361.Brouthers is No.2, with .348, and Duffy is No 3, with .339.E.B.Magnus of the Atlantic Rod and Gun club has appeared in the arena after an absence of several months.His first challenge to E, H.Garrison of the Fountain Gun Club, to shoot at 100 birds each, Hurlingham rules, for $500 a side, has not as yet been accepted.He also challenges T.T.Edgerton of tbe Glenmore Rod and Gun Club to shoot at fifty live birds for $100.\u2014N.Y.Press.The management of the Pittsburg Ciub announces its intention of reducing all salaries over $3000.The reason for this is that Pittsburg has been losing money ever since it went int) the League, aad no matt.r how high the salaries, have never been able to cut a figure in the pennant race.Some of thestars will not submit to a reduction, notably Beckley, who bluntly says he will jump to the association if'he cannot get his figure 1n the League.The salaries of Galvin and Miller will\u2018'be advanced.HODCSON, SUMNER & CO.\u201cporters Fancy

able Conditions\u2014Eleetrical Notes.The gradual lengthening of human life fs among the achievements of modern civilization.It suggests that a vigor ous old age may be in + consid erable degree dependent upon personal conduct, and Dr.B.W.Richardson advises that parents give their children a start in the most favorable conditions by protocting them from mental shocks and unnecessary griefs; and making their surrounding as happy as og, sible.The persons themselves, whet ol er, should avoid grief and eschew hate, jealousy, unchastity, and intemperance, all of which hasten the coming of old age.When old age bas really begun, its progress may be reduced to à minimum by securing the least friction and waste.Rules for this include subsistence on a moderate quantity of light but nutriti: ous food, varying according to the season; dressing warmly, but lightly, to preserve an even temperature; keeping the body in fair exercise and the mind active and cheerful, maintaining an interest in the world's affai and taking & reasonable sharein its labon and pleasures; securing plenty of sleep at proper hours ina comfortable room; and avoiding passion, excitement, and luxury, \u2018Thoughtful living in this way may enable à weak man to outlive his robust but less wise nei ghbor.! Interesting Domestic Invention, An invention of considerable domestic interest, recently brought forward in England, consists in making any article of hosiery, for either outside or under Wear, in such a manner as to render it perfectly self-fitting, without being narrowed or stitches reduced or widened, or the article increased in any way by transforming the fabrics at intervals and in such a manner as to give the required shapes In accomplishing this there are employed twa descriptions of fabric, respectively termed one-and-one rib and two-and-two rib, these two kinds of fabric being made and joined in the knitting as one operation without changing, transferring, or in any way narrowing a single stitch during the process of manufacture.This causes, by the increased elasticity of the two-and-two rib over the one-and-one rib, the decrease in size to the necessary shape, and, when changed again to one-and-one rib the fabric is again of its original width.No seaming, linking, sewing, etc., is resorted to.Resisting Power of Stones.Some further experiments in regard w the frost resisting power of natural and artificial building stones haye been mad by Bauschinger, with some twenty-one different kinds of natural building stones, thres to six test pieces of each being used, and with results of peculiar practical value | Their tensile strength, dry and wet, thei capacity for absorbing water, their alteration in volume, tensile strangth and behavior -\u2026ard water after freezing and tha -enty-five times, also thei | spe + these points were care fui.wd, ens recorded.Out of this numb.los, ranging from limestone to sandsta ie, only Lx were found to resist re peated freezing, viz., one of the dolorite, one ' of diorite, and four of sandstones, Fou other samples were found freezing fairly, but not absolutely; and of forty-one samples oj artificial stones similarly tested, only thres were found entirely unaffected, while eight proved fairly resistant.eee es The Latest Portable Captive Balloon, The latest type of portable captive balloon weighs, with gas generator and windin, drum, not more than six or seven tons, an has a capacity varying from 17,500 to 21,004 cubic feet.The gas\u2014hydrogen\u2014is produced by the decomposition of water at the rate of -8,750 to 10,500 cubic feet per hour.The works near Paris, at which these equipments arg turned out, will soon complete the largest air-ship ever constructed.The immense balloon of the Paris Exhibition had a capacity of 105,000 cubic feet and carried twelve persons; but the capacity of the new one will be over 2,000,000 cubic feet and it will be able to carry 180 passengers ina car 85 feet in diameter.A still more extraordinary product of these works will be an *\u2018aerial torpedo boat,\u201d which has been ordered by the Russian Government for secrei experiment.Thisis tobe an elongated bak loon, 170 feet long, with a 50-horse-power engine, and is to be driven 25 miles an hour by a fan 36 feetin diameter.Remarkable Optical Illusion.A remarkable optical illusion was shown by Prof.8.P.Thompson at a late conver sazione of the London Royal Society.On two rotating discs were spiral patterns in black and white, which seemed to move radi ally inwards and outwards, respectively.On gazing fixedly for about one minute af the centre of one disc, and then suddenly transferring his gaze to any object\u2014eay a face\u2014the observer saw that object apparently enlarging from the middle outwards.After gazing similarly for a minute at the second disc, and then looking at any fbject, he saw t apparently diminishing.Phosphorus Making by Electricity.In awew English process of making phos phorus by electricity, the raw material and woke are all fed into a speciaily designed furnace, reduced to vapor by electric heat, $d the vapor condensed into marketable phos phorus.The elaborate chemical treatment of the raw materials hitherto practiced is thus avoided, The world\u2019s annual consumpe tion of phosphorus is only about 2,000 tons, Electrical Notes, Foreign electricians are beginning to look to aluminum as the metal hest adapted to the manufacturs of electric mains, The electrical papers generally do not re joice at the unqualified success of the recent executions at Sing Sing by the alternating electric current.The Framingham & Ashland street railway company, a new corporation with a capital of $60,000, is to build an electric road about five miles long.North Carolina is to have one of the Jongest electric railway lines in the world, Itis to run from Asheville to Rutherford.ton, a distance of 41 miles, The power tq operate the road is to be derived from water, The line is intended for both freight and passenger service, The electric rolling stock of the Merrimag Valley street railway, of Lawrence, will, it As said, consist of 15 cars furnished with Ras factors, each of 40 horse power.The total length of the road will be about 20 miles, Thy \u2018 {Power house in Lawrence is to be equipped With three Thormson-Huston generators of $03 latest rallway pattern.EEE A a | \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A Two-Strike, ; The out-door household work in sum- er such as that of the summer-kitchen Washing and ironing, is & sort of mak shift with many mishaps like burns and fcalds.But Mr.Jno.Heinemann, Midd'e Amana, Iowa, U.8.A,, has found the ve remedy.He says: \u201cI scalded my is with boiling water, and had a 8.rain- * À aokle at the same time.One bot-le efSt.Jacoh'g Oil promptly cured both.\u201d Ct ut doubles its value easily, and shows ls great us-fulness.The first remedial effort in case of poisoning should be to enable the system to reject the poison; the next, to counteract its serious effects; and, finally, to begin the restaration of its normal tone.The poisonous substances usually found in the household may be di vided into three classes, which include: 0 the corrosive mineral and vegetable acids, such as sulphuric, nitric, carbolic, and oxalic acids; (2) the simple irritants, like the strong alkalies\u2014potash, lime, zine, ete.; (3) the spe cific irritants, like arsenic, iodine, and phosphorus.Prussic acid, chloroform, and opium belong to the neurotic poisons, some of which simulate in their effects the symptome of diseases of the brain and spinal cord, pre ducing delirium, convulsions, paralysis, and syncope.Tanner says that morphine and alcohol specially affect the brain, strychminé 1 the Sue cob , Sasi arsenic the stomach, and digitalis the heart, The solid poisons are less active than fluids and while those solublein water or in the digestive fluids are most injurious, because they are the most rapidly absorbed.When after eating or drinking a person is attacked with violent pain, nausea, purging, convulsions, delirium, or great drowsiness, the supposition is probable that poison, has been taken, and immediate medical aid should be obtained.While the use of the stomach.pump is the most thorough means of emptying and cleansing the stomach, its operation by an inexperienced person may cause serious injury, either by flooding the lungs or by lacerating the surface of the stomach, which bas already been injured by the corrosive action of certain poisons.The safest course of precedure by non-medical persons is the Promotion of the nausea, which is ons of the indications of poisoning, until free vomiting bas been effected.The simplest means to this end is the safest in the hands of any one but a physician, that is, the use of lukewarm water in which mustard has been dissolved; a tea~spoonful to a balf-pint of water, repeat, ed until the stomach is entirely empty.Tbe second remedial action is the application of some antidote calculated to counter act the effect of the poison either by combining with it, or depriving it of its deleterious qualities.The combination of antidote with poison forms harmless chemical compounds, or those which are insoluble in the gastric fluids.It then remains to neutralize the effect of the poison upon the system, and to overcome any depression or shock it may bave caused ; these are purely the physical offices.Of the corrosive poisons, those most frequently used in the househcld are oxalic \u2018And carbolic acids, creosote, and the caustic alkalies, potash, soda, and ammonia.-Oxalic acid bas sometimes been taken by mistake for Epsom-szlts; the salt; of sorrel, or the essential salt of lemons, used, like oxalic acid, for cleaning purposes and bleaching bas caused poisoning* The symptoms of oxalic acid poisoning are à burning sensation during swallowing, burning pain in the stomach, and almost immediate nausea.When there is no vomiting, great prostration, feeble pulse, and convulsions, death is likely to follow from collapse, The antidote is time in any form\u2014plaster or mor- tar\u2014chalk, whiting, or magnesia, mixed with water; but no fluid \u2018without an antidote, be cause it would favor the absorption of the poison.Asis the case with most poisons, white of egg is a useful remedy.Creosote and carbolic acid are so often in use as disinfectants tnat they may prove dangerous, especially as death so rapidiy follows i & dose of the poison.The mouth and lips are whitened by contact with the acid, the * pupils of the eyes are very much contracted, the breathing becomes stertorous, and coma is soon followed by death.The possibility of relief is small, but oil may be freely given, and immediately removed by the free use of emetics before it can be absorbed.Crude potash, pearlash, caustic s>xda, wash ing soda, and household ammonia have an : æcrid burning tasto extending to the throat and stomach, accompanied by great pain, _ tenderness upon pressure, abdominal pains, and suffocation.The immediate relief may be followed by death from starvation, owing \u201c to the closing of the msophagus by stricture.! Eventhe common remedy for sore throat, | ehlorateof potash, has been known to cause j death.In a recent instance an ounce of the + chlorate was taken in mistake for Epsom- salts, and death ensued within a few hours.The remedial treatment consists of neutralizing the poison by use of some weak acid, like vinegar and water, and the free consumption of the acid from fruit juices, lemons especially, followed by draughts of salad oil \u2014Harper\u2019s Bazar.\u2014_\u2014 Legal Blackmailing of English Prelates,- The sudden and lamented death of\u201d Archbishop Magee has directed public attention once more to the cnormous sum extorted, from high dignitaries in the English church by a host of officials of one kind or another, These include chancellors, apparitors, chaplains, surveyors, chapter clerks, and an infinite variety of secretaries.It appears that Dr.Magee was compelled to pay $35,000 to these functionaries when he was translated fron Peterborough to York, ani, as be only enjoyed the revenues of his new office for a few months, his estate\u2014a very small one for aman of his position\u2014was diminished by almost that amount.As a natural consequence his family is left in straitened circumstances, and it has become necessary to raise some sort of a fund for their benefit.His successor, Dr.Maclagan, is a rich man, and can afford to pay the money; but it is felt to be ridiculous, if not absolutely scandalous, that the premature death of an archbishop should result in the compulsory distribution of $70,000 among a lot of ornamental but useless officials in less than twelve months.The whole system is nothing but a species of legal blackmail, which bas flour- {shed chiefty because the victims of it have never dared to offer any strenuous protest against it.Now the matter has been brought up in parliament, and there is some prospect of reform.\u2014_\u2014 Detecting an Imposter, A man arrested at Berlin for theft, pretazd- sd to be insane, and replied to all questions by saying \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d Prof, Mendei, specialist, was deputed to examnine him.The professor took a mark out of his purse and usked how much it was.\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d be auswered, &s before.The professor then ask- wd for the prisoners purse, out of which he took a mark, and once more the man declar- ad that he didn\u2019t know its value;

Federal 1013 Editorial Rooms-\u2014Bell, 751.Feder al,10 THURSDAY MORNING OCT.8 SMITH, PARNELL, POPE-HENNESSY.Within the short period of twenty-four bours, and witn an unexpected suddenness which fairly startled British communities everywhere, thres prominent English public men have passed away\u2014 Right Hon, William Henry Smith, Charles Stewart Parnell, M.P., and Sir John Pope-Hennessy.In their respective spheres these were all noted men, and owing to the positions they occupied necessarily attracted an amount of public attention the world over, which their abilities alone would hardly have won for them.Hon.William Henry Smith was prominent chiefly because he was leader of the Conservative party in the House of Commons ; Parnell, because of his famous leadership of the Irish Nationalists ; and Pope-Hennessy, partly because of his long foreign service, bat chiefly because of the distinction he achieved in defeating the Parnellite candidate, Mr.Scully, in North Kilkenny, by 1,147 votes in December last.The first mentioned was known to be in infirm health, but cable de- wjatches gave no intimation that he was dangerously ill, and the same might be said of Parnell, though the latter never was a very rugged man, ° Right Hon.William Henry Smith was 66 years of age, the son of Mr.William Henry Smith, bookseller, publisher and news agent, of the Strand, London, He has been in public life since 1868, when he was e.ected to represent Westminster in the House of Commons, defeating John Stuart Mill.He has occupied successively the positions of Financial Becretary of the Treasury, First Lord of the Admiralty, Secretary of State for \u2018War, Chief Secretary for Ireland, First Lord of the Treasury and Leader of the House of Commons.The latter position pe has beld since the retirement of Lord Randolph Churchill from Lord BSalis- pury\u2019s second administration in 1887.The oecessed Commoner and Minister was the head of the great London news agency, which controlled the newspaper and book trade on the great lines of raii- way centering in the metropolis, and by his business ability had forced himself into the front rank of Parliamentary life.He was not, however, by any means a great statesman nor a brilliant debater, and his rej eated discomfiture in debate with such men as John Morley, Mr, Harcourt and the Irish representatives, combined latterly with ill-Health, paved the way for the leadership passing out vf his hands into that of Mr.Balfour or Mr.Goschen.The great leveller has settled that question go far as he is concerned, leaving the eontest for political preference and supremacy between Balfour ard Goschen.Charles Stewart Parnell, was of lrish descent, but by birth, character and education wes really a member of the English aristocracy, and In religion a Pro- tesiant.He entered the House of Com- mobs in 1875 and was not long in forcing himself to the front as an Irish representative, as much by his coolness, perseverance and inflexibility of character, as by bis ability.The Irish representatives found in him the leader they wanted, and by 1885 he found himself supported in the House of Commons by a solid phalanx cf Irish Nationalists.He wus then the idol of the Irish people and tbat was the zenith of his power.He was a master of obstructive tactics in the House of Commons whenever he deemed it advisable to adopt such tactics; and while it must be admitted that the land league sometimes resorted to indefensible plans of campaign, it will hardly be disputed that Parnell had goodgrounds for his'boast that be brought Ireland over to constitutional methods,though perhaps other influences assisted in bringing about that desirable consummation.Parnell was pre-eminently a fighting map, and while his friends will concede.that he committed some political blunders, it 1s not to be forgotten that he battled against extraordinary influences and often under very adverse circumstances.Never- thelees be rendered Ireland good service in many respec:s; and it is thereforea great pity tbat a useful and honorable career should have been marrad so nearits cloge by his mesalliance with Mrs.O'Shea, which effectually blasted his personal reputation and led to his being deposed from the leadership of the Irish National ists.Notwithstanding this unfortunate episcde, his opponeots will readily concede that he was not a mere professional politician, but that he labored honestly for the political welfare of Ireland, and the Irish people will remember him as the greatest of 1rish patriot leaders since the days of O'Connell.Sir Jobn Pope-Hennessy was in his 58th year, a native of Cork, a lawyer by professsion, and & politician since 1859.He enjoys the unique distinction of having been the first Catholic Conservative elected to the House ot Commons.His parliamentary career extended from 1859 to 1867.He took & fairly prominent position in Parliament and his name is identified with various measures designed to \u2018benefit Ireland; though many are disposed to regard him as having been two much of a professional politician, He was appointed Governor of Labuan in 1867, of the West African settlements in 1872; of the Bahamas in 1873; of the Windward Islands in 1875; of Hong Kong in 1877; and of Mauritias in 1832.Ths last position he held in the colonial service was in owe of the Australian colonies.His latest political exploit was that of beating tte Parnellite candidate in Kilkenny in December, 1890.That event not only seriously damaged Parnells political prestige, but brought Sir John into renewed political prominenca.It seems n unusual coincidence that he and Parnell, whose chosen candidate he so bitterly.and successfully opposed, should both pass away suddenly on the same night.\u2014 A COSTLY STOLEN VOTE.About a week ago the Mayor of Belle- ville, Ont., was tried, condemned and sentenced to twenty-four hours\u2019 imprisonment and a fine of $100 for voting twice for Mr, Corby, Conservative M.P.for West Hastings, at the last general election.The case caused considerable excitement on account of the prominent position the defendant occupied, and Judge Armour,in passing santence said: \u2014 \u201cYou stand in a disgraceful position in- deed\u2014a very disgraceful position.You, a member of the learned profession that obeys the law and sees that the law is observed; you, the chief magistrate of a city like this, descending to so disxrace- ful an act as to attempt to steal a vots in a general election.I can conceive of nothing more disgraceful.No words of mine can sufficiently express the feelings of disapprobation that I entertain for ao offence such as you have committed.There is nothing in the world modifying or qualifying or reducing its enormity in any way whatever.Thesentence of the court is that you be confined in the common jail for a period of twenty-four hours, and that you pay a fine to Her Majesty of one hundred dollara.The segtence is extremely light.It oughtto be a warning to you, and not only to you, but to every person in the community, that offences against the law such as you have committed are not to be tolerated.\u201d The St.John, N.B, Globe, referring to this Belleville case, says: \u201cIn a Canadian city of much more importance than that 006\u201d\u2014presumably St.John is meant\u2014 \u2018it is a well-known fact that à man in the employ of the city \u2018personated.\u201d In one case be personated a colored manu, and he tried the trick for the third time.The persons who know of this also believe that they could go into court and prove that it was one of the city fathers who employed the man to do the per- sonating.And this city father is said to have taken the stamp and to have spoken against the disloyalty, etc, of the Literal candidates.\u201d People who do that sort of thing act upon the principle, so frequently illustrated by the late Premier of Canada, that the end justifies the means\u2014that if they can find no other way of showing their loyalty and patrio- tiem they are fully justified in doing it by what Judge Armour designates as stealing a vote.Investigation would probably show that a great deal of this kind of person- ation is done at elections, and that it is not confined to one party.The three year old electoral lists, containing !the names of hundreds of dead and absent men, afforded ample scope for the perpetration of that species ot crime,and there can be no doubt that ib was taken advantage of in hundreds of instances.Elec- {oral lists revised every year by the municipal authorities of coustituencies, having accurate local knowledge of the people, would give correct lists, would reduce the possibilities of personation to a minimum and render it much easier to bring to justice those who commit offences of that kind.Perhaps the Belle- ville incident will have agood effect in showing personators and those who instigate them to attempt such villainy, that the law against personation is a real and serious matter.EE > THE DEATH OF KT.Hox.W.H.SMITH, Ccnservative leader in the British House of Commons, has opened up the way for a lively contest for the leadership.A cable despatch eays he will be succesded by Right Hon.Arthur J.Balfour, M.P.for East Manchester and Chief Secretary tor Ireland, unless Lord Salisbury should decide that Hon.George J.Goschen, Chancellor of the Exchequer and leader of the Liberal-Unionist wing of the party, is entitled to the place\u2014this in virtue of a promise naid to have been made to the Liberal-Unionists, when the negotiations for the coalition were 1n progress.There 18 room for a first-class quarrel over the position, unless the original Conservative party decides that it is advisable to yield to Lord Salisbury\u2019a wishes.etl Mg.CHAPLEAU by this time probably fools that he would like to kick himself for the blunder he made in attacking Protestant clergymen, because they exercised the right to denounce the corruption unveilid at Ottawa.Probably several of his Cabinet colleagues would also like to kick him.The meeting in THE MONTREAL HERALD THURSDAY OCTOBER 8 1891 Knox Church Tuesday indicated pretty plainiy that he has wakened up the wrong passenger, NEw YORK TRIBUNE: Canada's groatest need is to have a Government endowed with the saving grace of clean hands and a pure heart, Weil, yes; but don\u2019t you need some of the same thing in several localities in the United States ?\u2014e NOT A PARALLEL CASE.TONDON FREZ PRESS:\u2014The unfgir use that 18 beinz made of the departmental irregularities at Ottawa, for the purpose of injuring the Government, may be better understood in the light of events which are happening in every city, and very frequently.Let any one who is familiar with the history of London for twenty-five years call to mind the number of instances which have come into pablic notice of breaches of trust in that time, It is pot 80 many years ago since one of the best conducted monetary Institutions in Western Ontario discovered that the man whom they had been promoting year after year had all the while been defrauding them.The shareholders did not ask the vresident and directors to resign in a body, but were satisfled with the efforts of those officers to see that justice was promptly done in the premises.There can be no such thing as one law for Government and another for a financial corporation.Justice should be the same under all circumstances.The cases are by no means parallel and consequently the argument is not a valid one.If the directors of that financial institution had neglected tbeir duties as bank officers and failed to keep a vigilant oversight over their trusted employees; if they had winked at irregularities which indirectly brought gain to themselves; if, when they had their attention called to irregularities, they failed to bring the culprits to account; if investigation showed that the working staff of the institution was demoralized with petty boodling and that the directors appro- pristed to their own private purposes services which were paid for by the bank\u2014what would become of those directors ?They would be dismissed by the sharsholders ; more than that, they would be held legally and morally responsible for the stealing per- petrasted by the bank officials and would suffer accordingly.That is just the case of the Ottawa Government, or at least some four or five members of it.It is morally impossible that the peculation and boodling which went on for years unchecked in several departments of Government could have been perpetrated for any length of time or to any great extent if the heads of those departments had been faithful to the trust reposed in them as Minister\u2019s of the Crown.To admit that they were entirely ignorant of these things is to post them up in the sight of the people of Canada as hopeless imbeciles, Ia either case they are not fit to occupy the positions of trust and responsibility ' to which they had been called, and shoald be summarily dismissed.That these men should be retained in office or whitewashed, while minor offenders are to be punished, is an outrage which will not be tolerated or condoned by the people of Canada.>ee\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 .Toe HamizroN TiMeEs commends the idea enunciated by The Herald the other day, that our firemen should ba afforded every opportunity of becoming acquainted with the plans and internal arrangements of factories and other large buildings in their respective districts, so that they might the more raadiiy guard against accident and be able to judge more accurately the best points of vantage from which to fight the flames.Our Hamilton contemporary says: \u201c This is not a bad idea.If our own firemen paid a visit to the large factories, warehouses and stores and made themselves acquainted with the construction of the

reporter as it he had done no wrong.He reiterated the statement contained in his affidavit that he did not keep all the money for Limeelf, that \u201cfrom time to time\u201d hs \u201cforwarded money to the Conservat.ye Association of Montreal.\u201d Precisely so; that is what the commis- gion business was inaugurated for\u2014to replenich the Conservative election funds.We have not got to tha bottom of this political commission business yet.Tne HamiLtoN SrecraToR objects to The Empire reading Sol White out of the party on the ground that he is \u201cas barmlees a revolutionist ag ever

actson Gov.Pattison\u2019s suggestion and makes an investigation.\u201d That is not very much consolation for the people of Canada.It reminds one of the story told of a sympathetic Scotch woman who endeavored to comfort a much-afilicted neighbor by saying: * Be thankfu\u2019 theres mair like ye.\u201d There way be a crumb of comfort in the consideration tbat there is a lot of bood- ling and corruption among our neighbors, but it does not in any way lighten the disgrace resting upon Canada.It simply affords room for the reflection that we have companions in humiliation.\u2014\u2014 The

are entertained he will have to give satisfactory assurances that he can obtain a seat.pr A WESTERN OPINION.The Commercial Relations of Canada and the United States.St.Paul Pioneer Press.Mr.William Henry Hurlbert, for some time lost to sight though still to memory dear, reappears above the literary horizon sufficiently long to supply thie October number of the Nort.American Review with a singularly forcible article on our future trade rela= tions with the Dominion.It has, we think, more of the practical element than most that has been written upon the subject.Tnere are not many writers who excel Mr.Hurlbert in his breadth of information and his grasp of a subject ; and those who least admire him in other particulars must hopestly yield the palm to him in this.\u201cReciprocity\u201d is to him a term of some meaning and import, as applied to tbe commercial relations between the United States and her neighbor on the nurth.But he seems to re- conclusion and practical working of any such agreement, a larger liberty of action on the part of Canada, which Great Britain should confer as a matter of necessity and of wise policy as well.Mr.Hurlbert sees, as all sensib\u2019e and honest men must see, the immanzse advantages to be gained by both sides from more liberal commerc:al relations b - tween ourselves and the provinces of Canada.Itis almost an absardity that the States of the Union should have free trade with one another while eacu of them is denied the privileges of such an arrangement with its neighbor over the border.It is the same when we arrange with soma painstaking fog an interchange of products with varions hations of the southern _hemisphere, while building up a frowning wall between our- geives and people with whom itis so easy as well as profitable to maiutaia the mest intimate trade relations.Toe embargo put upon commerce between the United States and Canada, united as they are by a& thousand ties, bound together as they must be by mutuality of interest and intersecting lines of interior communication, is worse than futile.It zeciprocity is to be the thing we hope it is, its boundaries must, in some way, be enlarged to include the trade of she Can- adisn provinces.This Mr.Huribert does not expect to gee accomplished at any date by a political union.We need not follow his argument on that question, for political union 1s not yet an issue.Nor is there, of course, much tobe hoped as long a8 all trade arvangements for the colonies must be made through the intervention and subject to the approval of the ministers (f the crown.The question is, why should not the people of Canada be made free to act in these premises for themselves?They already tax 1m- ports from England; why should they at de free, at the same time, to leave uuiax- ed imports from the United States, if that seem to them their best interest?The contention of Mr.Huribert is that a development of the Dominion as an_independent power, With its own minister at our capital and its own power of passing upon commercial arrangements with our government, is emineatly desirable for tue security vf the British connection as well as fr the development of tub colonies themselves.\u2026 We do not think it probable that British statesmanship,\u2018proverbially uu- intelligent as to the condition aud nesds of the colonies, and iudifferuns to thom after they bave been ascertained, will soon sanction tbe condition of semi-in- dependence suggested by Mr.Harloert.But if that is ever to come, it muss be by the assistance of sum» pracucal lessons cn the subject.That « cuadition of reciprocity or Os practical tree trade bee tween the Uuitea States and Canada is eminently destrabla for both parties it ie uselsss Lo deny.Under the ola agreement, inadequate and unsatisfactory as it wus, tue interests of both parties flourished great'\u2019y.Every year gees our relations drawn closer.Every year sees new lines of railroad built, connecting the countries more absolurely and cementing thelr inter i-pendenc » \u2018To stand aloof from each other comwers cially is to sacrifice much fora whim.quire, as a condition precedent to the} lt is no' to the advantage of either party that the trade of Canada should now be seekisg a British ontlet, owing to tne urmecerseary harshness of our tariff regulations.If reciprocity is the thing which we believe 1t to be, and which the American people bave declared it by the extraordinary enthusiasm with which they have accepted it, then it is worth trying with Canada as well as with Bolivia or Brazil.More intimate trade re- ations with Canada ought to be tue watchword of far-seeing political leaders of both parties, on either side of the boundary.spending your money for worthless

Pieces of licorice laid around where ants run is recommended.Meringues should be put on puddings after they are slightly cool, as, if the pudding be hot, the egg will liquefy.Old newspapers torn iff small pieces and wet in water softened by the addition of a little ammonia, are excellent to wash lamp- chimueys.Steamed dumplings, with stewed chicken or veal, are an acquisition.Cook both tuese meats until nearly done, then make the dumplings lke baking-pow- dor biscuits; pour all but a little of the water from the meats into another vessel for gravy, and put the dumplings in the pot on the meat so that they will not touch the water, and cook until all the water i3 boiled away.To remove soyatches and bruises from furniture, rub thers gently witha fresh walnut, butternut or hickorynut kernel, and they wil» disappear as if by magic.To remove the unsightly marks cansed by drippings from the faucets in marble basins, or in the water-closet bowl, nothing equals pulverized chalk, moistened with a few drops of ammonia.Apply with an old tooth-brash and they quickly disappear.In cooking vegetables, always remember taat boiling water evaporates rapidly on the approach of a storm

laid willing hands onsome of it, and, wonder ful to bahold, the wood and himself began journeying the same way, when a minion of the law spied the moving wood and laid cruel hands on him and then

conversation with a Herald reporter, & prominent bulder said: \u201cThe verdict was an extraordinary one.Why, there was not, as far as I can learn, a business man on the jury, and I am sure thers was not a contractor on it, or, indeed, anyone who had the slightest idea of the nature of the duties of the building inspector.That not one of them understood anything about building matters is apparent from the verdict rendered.The matter should not bs allowed to rest.As it is, one poor fellow lost his life, and it is only a miracle that more were nos killed.The proper authorities should take ths matter in hand.In the interests of public safety an investigation should be held, One Man Who Coulda\u2019t Work, J.Ulric Brunet, believing that te world owes him a living, came to Mout raal to

those who are tirad, and believing that any over-exertion wonld greatly augment his weariness he soon found himself in a most bewildering position, he dare not work and could not collect that living which the cold and cruel world owed him.\u2018While he.was meditating on the best course to pursue, a hard hearted \u201ccopper\u201d who had sympathy for none who loafed, came by and took him to a place where the city provides three meals a day and sufficient warmth to keep his kind from being pinched by old Boreas\u2019 chilly blasts.Yesterday the judge demanded of him $10 or a life of quietude for six months.Believing that tbe quietude was part of the debt that he had been looking for,he accepted it,but scorned tha payment of the filthy lucre.ee Pharmaceutical Examiuations, The

slackened their speed and were examining their spoils, Hamilton demanded the return of the stolen property, which they granted with the remark that the thing was only a joke.As no policeman was near Hamilton tried to keep tnem in view until he met one, but the cab horse lacked the necessary speed and the thieves were soon out ofsight.The property stolen belonged to the roomer and consisted ofseveral coats and other wearing apparel, and fortunately for the caretaker the thieves did not find a purse in which he had a large sum of money.At 3:30the cabbies on the stand opposite the house were startled by hearing Mrs.Hamilton crying for belp.They immediately ran to her assistance and were informed that two men were robbing the house.They entered and in ome of the rooms captured a man giving the name of Le Blanc, and after a long search Mrs.Hamilton discovered that the otler robber was hidden in a closet, which the cabbies forced open and found the man Martin.In the meantime some

enliyened by the presence of Ald.G.W.Stephens.who was in his most jocular mood, and kept the committae in roars of laughter when the question of Ald.S8horey\u2019s application again came up.This has
