Yesterday a thousand jieoplo viMted the county Juil , if possible to see Mrs. King , the murderer of the young man of that name whoso killing has IMJOII recorded In those col umns. . She is confined in the upper tier of the north \ving. Hhn 1ms , for n cellmate , the notorious for- tutiri teller , Mrs. Mary Dubadi , who basks under the blackened remitation of a procur- csi , and who Is reputed to possess a char acter that beggars description. Mrs. King , the immlerc.ss , was placed in this cell late Haturday afternoon. To the loft of the cell occupied by Mra. Kin ? and her companion , is cell No 1 , in which i.i conllncJ Miss Ida Smith , who U held as n witness against Mrs. Uubnuch , and a youiit ! girl , who It Is al- logt'd narrowly esi aped being lured Into the flcnths of Iniiiuity and degradation by the Jail companion of Airs , King. To the right of cell ! ! is cell : i , in which the unfortunate Inwino woman , May Delano , Is corralled. Tills , at the present time , is the center of cu riosity in the Jail. Mrs. King Is bearing up under the burden of the trouble in a manner that stands almost , unparallud. Saturday afternoon , nhnrtlv nftor bolng in carcerated , she was taken ill , and Deputy County. Physician Hurrigan was summoned. Iln administered stimulants and the patient BOOH revived. Ajido from the regular menu of the Jail , he has been given ten to drink , but outside of this oho has been doled out the regular prison viands , which are not very inviting , rvcn to nn Individual in the pangs of hunger. But Mrs. King evidently has concluded to resign herself to thn inevitable , ami has al ready becomn an adept in the art of peeling jiotutoos with her hands , while her white and tiny lingers are used a medium of conveying tlic viands to her mouth , in place of the al most indispensiblo knife and fork. Yesterday morning Alrtt. Kiii arose bright and curly. Shu told the attache's of the jail that she had rusted quite well during thu flight , and , aside fnnu a slight headache , nho felt in her usual health. She sat quietly in her cell durinp the forenoon after break fast , and kept her eyes the major portion of the time riveted on tlio iron gratings of the corridor. Shortly bo fore noon she brooded HliBhtly over her predicament , but the tears that were In ttio recesses of her huzal eyes vrcrc Kniiluall.v nbsorbed and ahu again nssiiniod a nonchalant appearance. AH is customary , rolicious service was held in the corridor of thu building , und while it was boine conducted the prepossessing form of Mrs. King posed In the doorway of her cell before the assemblage. Nearly every eye was directed toward her as she stood with her hands resting on the iron bars , When the religious exercises wore con cluded she repaired .o thoMvindow over looking the court house , and in which es- tablishmojit she will bo arraigned before the tribunal of justice to answer to the hincous crime of murder. The major portion of the afternoon was spout perusing ttio local daily ( tapers , containing reports of fier husband's 'murder. She wns more restless during tlio Into part of tlio afternoon , and when a re porter called she was not disposed to dilate on the affair , She informed one of the at turtles of the jail that she did not really re gret the manner in which the alTuir termi- iiulod us regards herself und Ilarry , but again assorted that she did not come hero for that purpose. in..SCOTX IMTURVIEWKD. Jlow lie Caino to Bo So Closely Coti- ncctctl With .tlio Affair. Mr. George Scott , who represents a largo boot .jirnl Htioo factory doing business in Hochester , N. Y. , and who figures so promi nently in tills terrible tragedy , was spoken to yesterday afternoon by a reporter and a few interesting particulars elicited from that , gen tleman touching his connection in the King murder case. Mr. Scott most emphatically denies that ho ever met Mrs. King No. 2 before ho saw her in the ofllce of the Paxton hotel on Saturday morning. Mrs. King arrived from Chicago via the " ( J" route , whllo ho cuino into Omaha by the Milwaukee rend from Sioux City. Mr. Scott says : "When I arrived in Omaha , contrary to my usual custom , I walked up ia the hotel. I generally take the "bus. " "When I entered the olllce of the Paxton I took up the pen to register , but noticing thut u ludy was iiiiinc- .illatoly behind mo , I gave way to her ; I don't Hay Bhu registered herself ; possibly the cleric entered her nuhic. I proceeded to my room and changed my cuffs and collar for clean ones , and then stood debating m tny own inind whether I should get shaved before 1 breakfasted. I decided not to do so. I then proceeded to the breakfast room nnd took a ucat near to the entrance. The waiter who attended upon mo was very slow and delayed ECttlng" uiymcal for nearly ten minutes. Just as ho had placed the dishes on the table I heard tlio first shot , and without a second of hesitation I rushed out , and ran up to the llrst lloor where tbo murder occurred. It liud all boon done when I got there , and what little courtesies I afterwards showed the unfortunate woman were such as any man with a spark of humanity in his heart vould display under the circumstances. ! "That's all I know about the affair. I would like to miy now that I unwillingly up- pcnr in connection with this deplorable mut ter owing to what I can lionestly call a va riety of unfortunate circumstance. When I was ! u St. Paul I Intended leaving that tilaco HO as to reach Omaha on Friday. I lost one clear day through missmg a train. When I p'Ot to Sioux City tny friends were mixious for mo to stay over Sunday with them , but I Insisted upon leaving so us to arrlvo iu Omaha Saturday morning early , so as to no business. So you nee I came to bo on hand at such an inoppor tune moment. Tliat wasn't all ; because if i had rode to the Paxtoti instead of walking I should have boon away before Mrs. King. And then , to make mutters wnrao , I wasted what 1 now realize were precious moments , fooling about my toilet. And then again , if my appetite hod not got the better of my do- Biro to improve my personal appearance , I would have been In the barber shop when the shooting occurred. Aud then thut blamed waiter heouingino so long oh.well , It'snouno complaining now. Hut it puts mo on record ns being connected with the King inurdur , very much against my Inclination , Indeed. " Mr. Scott is under bonds of 11.000 , and lie Is considered as a very material witness by County Attorney Simurul. Mr. Scott now occupies room 155 at the Mlllard hotel. Ho left the Paxtou house on Saturday evening. County Attorney Simeral was seen yester day afternoon at thu Mlllard hotel. Mr. Sim- mil had nothing to say about the murder further than this , that ou the 1st of Decem ber next the state would in all probability bo i-eudy to proceed with the trial. "Is it true , Mr. Simoral , tbat the prosecu tion of Mr . King will bo undertaken jointly by the state and Attorneys Woohvorth , U'Jiuraton and HalH" "I .don't know anything about the gentle men you mention as having been retained for thu prosecution bejond mere rumor. Hull will say right here , that the state alone will undertake this prosecution. It Is comx | > tent to do so uud will be ready at tbo proper tlmo. I neivor huvo during my tenure of ofllco nllowcd any Interference Iu state prosecu tions by outside attorneys , aud I don't pro pose to make u commencement at this date. I uin commUsloncd to do my duty Iu such cane * , and I will do no fearlessly , irrespective of any outside Inlluciict's. The ttutu of No- Imisku will prosecute thin woman. U Is not n family persecution. " MUS. KINO'S X1UAL. U'lio County Attorney Wants to lies I u It UK Knon an Possible. County Attorney Slmcral was seen yester- flny and asked If the King murder case would lo ; brought up before the district court dur- luy ( ho present verm , "Ves , sir , " ttW Mr. Simoral , "I shall tiro- ; rut the CRSO for trial on or about tbo Ut of Decuuibcr , I see 110 possible reason why the case should go over to another term , It maybe bo , howovbr , that the dcfcnso witt ask for n continuance. .

Whenever the case may come befora the tribunal of justice for trial , I trust It may bo conducted on both sides on a strictly Judicial manner and tbat Justice may assart herself. " WHO IS ADA ? Tlio Mysterious Woman Who IJTOH ! With li-H. llecchlur. CHICAGO , Nov. 18. [ Special Telegram to Tun Ur.K. ] Interest In the King murder has increased hero to-day , but not n great deal of valuable information 1ms yet developed iu connection with it. Your corrcsiwndent called again to-day upon Miss Ada , the mys- ' tenous young lady who Is now occupying the Casts atrect apartments of the "Ueech- lers. " This young lady , by Iho way , bears a most striking resemblance to Mrs. Hoocb- ler's portrait , which stands in one corner of the room , with the exception of the mouth , but strenuously denies any relationship. She asserts most positively that she in n book keeper in a store down town ; that about three weeks ago she advertised for apart ments , and that Mrs. Bccchlor answered her advertisement. Uoiug pleased with the lo cation , she took up her residence there , and bcnnr alone with Mrs. Ueeohlcr , with the exception of the servant girl , naturally they became quito confidential. Mrs. Uuechlor told her that thu reason she answered the advertisement was that her husband had left her about it wcok before without means , nud being at a loss for subsistence hud taken , this clmnco to lighten her expenses. Miss Ada is a re m ark ably keen young woman , and has so far baflled the efforts of all reporters to learn her name or antecedents. Her secretlveness she explains by saying that she does not de sire to become mixed up in the case in any manner. She seems wonderfully familiar witli Mrs. Uccehlor's story , mid expresses n belief tlmfslrc and King1 were married ut least by a common law marriage. The only tlmo she appeared in the slightest degree embarrassed was when I suddenly asked her" how it was. In speaklnc of King or Uouchler , that she referred to him > so familiarly ns "Harry. " She wns slhrhtly staggered , and hesitated a moment before replying that it was on account of hearing Mrs. Ueechler speak of him so often , and always that way. Most positively she reiterated that she her self had never seen the man , uud had never met Mrs. Ueochler beforS before coming to the Cass street house. Talking In u general way about the murderess , she said : "Mrs. Ueechler Is of a very gentle , lova ble nature , ' and exceedingly ladylike iu her deportment. She is oMiomc habits and had no cnllois of any description. Since I cams hero wo have spent tne evenings at home by the lire together , sowing and chatting. She has only been out twice of an evening since 1 have be'en with her. Once she went with me to thetheater. and last Monday night she went to see 'NaUjy. ' " Nothing could induce Miss Ada to te'l ' who her escort was , but careful investigation elsewhere leads to the belief that Mrs. Ueccliler went thut night to "Nudjy" with Henry W , King not the murdered man , nor ills father but u man of the same name , a young coal merchant at 252 Illinois' street , who boards at 327 Chicago avenue. Mr. King was found at the Union ejub by .tho reporter. Ho is a rather hand- 'somo young man , with 'a large , black mous tache , prematurely touched with white. Ho instantly denied having visited the theater'in Mrs. Ueuchler's company at any time , but ho was visibly upset. Ho said that he know Mrs. Bocchler well , had often seen her , and had boon with her tor the last time on Wednesday night. She was then greatly agitated about Harry King's marriage in Omaha. Asked whether he had boon intro duced to her by the dead man , ho declined to reply , but said that bo seldom saw Harry King , a'nd , although ho knew him well , ho had not met him in six months. "Did Mrs. Uocchlor claim to you that she was Hurry King's wife I" "She always did. She said she Was mar ried to him by a common law marriage. " "Did she threaten him when you last saw her ? " "No , but she seemed very niucn dis tressed. " He manifested reluctance to talk any further on tlio case. AN ATTOHNEY'S STOR.Y. What. Ho Known of Y'oun King nnd the Uccahler Woman. CHICAGO , Nov. 18. [ Special Telegram to THE BKB.J According to the story told by Attorney Johnson , who , it is Bald , lias been employed by King , sr. ; to make settlements of several of Hurry's scrapes , the young man became acquainted with the Ueechler woman about two and a half years ago. Ho said they lived in Quincy some time , when they were seprratod through the Influence of Mr. King , sr. Johnson nddod : "Harry , I am ccrta'n ' , never had any intention of marrying tho'girl. She want to Cleveland to sea her folks , and the first person she met when she returned was ilarry. The result was tliat their old relations were renewed and they slatted lifo in a North Sldo Hat. A month ago Harry was sent to Omaha. Meanwhile - while ho had become betrothed to Miss Duffy. In the Hecchlor woman's possession were a lot of letters written.by the young fellow , and I called her to my ofilou to talk the mutter over. She did not know at this time of Harry's marriage. I resolved to break the news to her. She took it very coolly and sensibly at ilrst , but before she loft Hho was ranting , I sentufriund up to BCO her tbat night and ho 'found her packing her vallso. She was going to Omuhu , and a big revolver lay on the tablo. He talked her out of the Idea of goimr. Knowing she hud a revolver , uud thut she was greatly aroused over tbo news about Ilarry , I was greatly nlarmod , and told Mr. King about my fears and suggested that slio bo watched. Hutsholmu been to sqe him and had talked to him of going back to Cleveland aud becoming a good girl. In the goodness of his heart no believed her. She turned from her fnterviow with him to take an early train for Omaha. An far her talk about bigamy , thut IH nonsense. The boy hud no intention of marrying her. Ho has written to me four or 11 vo times denying any thought of marriage , md ; I was rending0110 of the let ters when I got the uows of the murder. " _ The Father's Story. CIIICAOO , Nov. iy , [ Special Telegram to Tim HUB. ] Mr. King , sr. , when asked about the interview the woman hud with him , said that when ho wan in Omaha a few days ago Harry told him ho had some complications with u woman in Chicago which he was anx ious to have gotten out of the way ; in short , that he had bcca keeping a woman hero us a mistress. Ho dunlod having inado any engagement to marry her , and Mr. King put the matter In a lawyer's bonds. Friday morning she called at the office and demanded to know when Hurry would bo in Chicago. Ho told her ho did not know. She said she vas troing to Cleveland on the ovoulug train und would bo buck the forepart of next week , and then wanted to see the young man , This , Mr. King claimed , was substantially all the conversation between them , Nothing was said to him about the lawyer's story of the woman promising to bo good , etc. A local paper asserts thut It is understood , though not from Mr , King , thut the sum of $1,500 was paid to the Hoochlnr woman at the Inter * view VYiday , and that In consideration thereof bbo signed a paper relinquishing all claims of every kind on Harry King , Jr , I llko .my wlfo to use Pozzonl's Coin- nloxion Powder because ? it improves tier looks and ia us frocrnint us violets ) .

C'ttTr\o < \ Nov. 19.- [ Special Telegram to Tin : Hur. ] This story came from a gonllo man claiming to bo nn intimate friend of the King family , To areportcr ho said : "The woman was Harry's mistress noth Ing more. Do you suppose she would have signed a paper relinquishing nil rights to Harry if she had been his wife I'1 "Has she ! ' ' signed sucu a paper "That's what she has , and it is in the pos session of Mr. Kin r , sr.

" "And she was not married to Harry ! " "No , no. Why , for the last two weeks she has been consulting a lawyer to see it she could not establish marriage relations' witl Harry , and that's really the reason why she shot Harry , " In this connection your corresponded ! learned from "Miss Ada" to-day that on Thursday evening last , several hours nftor Mrs. Uocchlor had telegraphed to the Dulf.\ \ family at Louisiana , Mo. , that she wa : Harry's lawful wife , a telegram wni reef Ivci In reply from Mrs. DulTy , expressing doubts ns to the authenticity of the telegram nml requesting some method of confirmation. Mrs , Hcechlor nt this tlmo was too agitated to write a reply to this message. So Adi acted an her amanuensis and lulcgraphci Mrs. Duffy , reiterating the assertions of the former dispatch , and referringMr . DufT.i for further information to Attorney Luthui Liillin Mills , who , slio stated , llfld charge ot her case. No further messages were re ceived. Attorney Mills was sOcn by a re porter nnd said ! "Mrs. Ucechler was brought 'to my ofllcobj a gentleman with n viaw to consulting mo with rofcrcnco to her relations to Henry W. King , jr. She subsequently had two or three consultations with mn on that subject. the precise nature of which I do not think It proper , from a professional standpoint , testate state ( certainly not nt this timo. When she was introduced she was n 'total stranger tome. On Friday morning last she called ut the ofllce , nnd nfter remaining a short time , loft , say lug ; she intended to leave the oity that evening for hoc former homo at Cluveland , O. I had not the slightest idea that she thought/ going to Omaha , for she distinctly declared her intention of 'going to Cleveland. " More than this Mr. Mills declined to say , except to express the deepest sympathy for Henry W. King und his family. 1IOMK FOR HUKlAIj. TIic Remains of the Lmtc Henry W. KlniSerit t < > Cliiea o. The funeral of the late Henry \V. King took place yesterday afternoon from the undertaking rooms of Drexel & Maul. The remains were enclosed'in a magnificent cas ket of red cedar , with copper lining eased in black broadcloth und silver tips. They looked as if In repose , not a single feature being disturbed. They reposed upon a bed of satin and were robed in a suit of black. The hands were crossed 1141011 the breast. Many of the most intimate friends of the deceased took a farewell look at the remains , after which the casket was berne to the hearse by pall bearers as follows , selected from among the employes of the house of Browning , King & Co. , which the deceased had established : C. O. Hinehart , F. Mason , , T. 13enson , C. W. Jean , W. Canueld , C. R Hureman and N. W. Nicholas. Just before leaving the morgue , a most beautiful cluster of red and Lafayette roses , expressive and imposing , was placed upon the casket of the deceased. This token of all that had been contributed , alone was allowed to appear upon the case , bocuuso it was the votive offering of the distracted wife , who at intervals only seemed capable of realizing the extent of her bereavement. The remains were borne to the U. & M. depot , whither they were attended by u large number of the leading merchants of Omaha who had learned to appreciate the personal qualities and business ability of the de ceased. After the remains had. bqen placed upon the train at the depot , Mrs. King , the widow of the deceased'was escorted to the place by Mr. Wilcox , the manager ot tbo house iu this city of Browning , King & . Co. , und Mr. and Mrs. Jaiiios Snydcr , tbo latter being a cousin of the widow. Mra. King was dressed in mourning. .She was supported by Mrs. Snydcr and Mr. Wil cox. She moved with the unconscious grace of a queen , her beautiful fuco losing little of its attractiveness through the heavy crepe which veiled it , or the tear-dimmed eyes which shone through the sombre covering. As she was entering the car she burst into a cry which touched every heart. It was a lament for her murdered husband and a wall against the exaction of her friends who had not permitted her to gaze upon his features. In the car she and Mrs. Snydcr were led'to ' the stateroom. There , before the starting of the train , everything was done to distract the bjautiful lady's attention , but without avail. At times she was hysterical , but oven when not giving expression to uncon trollable emotion , there was an expression of grief upon her beautiful feature's which was painful to behold. She seemed perfectly oblivious of what was transpiring around hpr , aud her story and listlcssncss brought tears to many eyes. The train started without uerceptiblo Jar , and before anybody on it was aware of the fact the great line of cars were moving in funeral order with the remains of Henry King , jr. , on to Chicago. Low Hill , the most Intimate friend of the deceased in Omaha , was one of the escorts of thu remains to Chicago. Tliollaytlen ICcpulillo Confiscated. Nuw YUUK , Nov. 13.

It is reported as giving H3 votes for Cleveland and not a siu- glu ono for Harrison. HACK iiETwins'inur AX MAIHN' . The closest vote on state ofllcers over known in this slaw is between Doy and Mahin for railroad commissioner. For a week af toe election the returns showed a ma jority for Mahin of from 100 to 2,0W , ( , but cor rected nnd semi-onlcial returns received in the past few days indicate that Dey will have a majority of from BOO to 500. Errors in the transmission of tig- urcs may still elect Mahin , but it is hardly probable. So far the onlcml fig ures by the sec-rotary of state show a small majority for Dey , and the fourteen unreported - ported counties can hardly increase the csti-- mates suiliciently to put Mahin in the lead. The majorities rolled up for Dey in the river counties was simply phenomenal. Com mencing at Kookuk , Leo county gives Doy 1,050 , Des Molnes 1,830 , Muscatine 800 , Scott 8.9SO , Clinton 1,001) ) , Jackson rI50 , Dubuque 1,5'JS , Clayton 8'JO and Allamnkee 1150 , making over 14,000 in those counties. Maliiu was also cut heavily in-ovpry railroad center. In this ( Polk ) county he ran 1,800 behind Harrison risen , and in Linn county , although Harrison carries the county by over 000 , Dry carries the county by 610. This is no doubt largely duo to the active participation in politics of the general ofilcers-of the Hurlington , Cedar Unpids & Northern railroad , who , it is un derstood , are very bitter against Muliin , as well as Smith and Campbell. The line Italian hand of Judge Hubbard , of the Northwestern , whose home is at Cedar Kaplds , may also bo seen in this vote. The northwestern lobbyist was equally successful at other points along his road. Wrieht county , for instance , in which Eagle Grove , a division station of this line , In Ritu- allied , cuts Harrison's magniUccnt majority of 900 down to 173 lor Mahin. Fort Dodge , another railroad town , also boomed Doy at the expense of Mahin. for which Hon. J. F. Duncombe. the Illinois Central attorney , is undoubtedly responsible. The city gave Harrison nluo majority , but Dey carries it by over 300. And thus it goes in every rail road center in the state.- Hut the railroads alone were not able to elect Dey. Hundreds of anti-monopolists , fearing for the success of Smith "and Campbell , traded votes for Dey for votes for those candidates , thus giving them an immense majority , approxi mating 7 > ,000.

Tlio new Young Men's Christian associa tion building stands in a most commanding position at the corner of Sixteenth and Douglas strcots. The site is admirably chosen , being elevated most advantageously. In addition to this its location can be de- sctlbed as thoroughly central. The building is a most elegant specimen of \vhatmaybedescribcd as the Romanesque , with a touch of the Gothic here and there , introduced without interference with the general barmony of the design. When it is known tbiit the structure covers an area of ground 132 feet front by 02 feet duop , some idea can be formed of the imposing dimen sions of the various internal divisions. The main entrance is on Sixteenth street and nc- "ccss is gained by means of a splendidly con structed Gothic entrance with double swing doors , that lead immediately to a flight of stairs , broad iu the proportions and of a pitch that makes travel up them exceedingly pleas ant. Ueacbing the first platformculled thesec- end story , to the loft is found tiio lecture hall , 80x14 , Where prayer meetings , lectures , etc , , will be held ; at the west end of the room is a plutfor. for the speakers , and upon it is found an excellent organ used at the various services. Adjoining this room are found the committee rooms , 30x10 , used exclusively by ; he board of directors. Turning to the right , entrance is gained to n suite of rooms most elegant In construction and finish and em- jracing reception and'reading rooms , two parlors nnd a library. This suite of apart- ncnts ure all connected. Uy this plan the Y. M. C. A. are in possession of rooms for the entertainment of their friends excelled by no club house in Omaha. The measure ments are as follows ; Uepuptfon room 24x35 , oading room 35x44 , No. 1 parlor 18x18 , No. 2 parlor 18x17 , library KixlS. The division ines between the various rooms are narked by tastefully selected "por- .Icres , " and appropriately bung , adding nuch to tlio ensemble of the Hiirrouudings , rlcre are also found cloak check rooms and secretarial ofllccs. The lighting of these rooms is ample. An abundance of daylight is secured by some Iftocn largo windows , and ut night gas will jo used and distributed by means of twelve six-bruucb brass and lacquered chumlolicrs of u tasteful design. On tlio third lloor uro 'outid chess rooms , lavatories and a very spacious concert room , ( i-isSU , capable of seating COO people. On this lloor the gym- msium superintendent lias his oniuc , and the > ath rooms arc placed very advantageously o the gymnasium. The latter contain two ub rooms and a lurgn tiled needle bath room with ninu small bpraytt and one largo center douche. The tiles in the siway room are of the most expensive character and can- lot fall to bo exceedingly pleasant to the inshod bather's feet. The fourth floor contains the gymnasium iropcr , nml the various lockera , liOOin nurn- > er , that will be nsod by the members of Prof. Gwathmey's clusst'S. ' The physical do- lartment of the association's work will re vive special attention. To that end a por- ectly fitted up apartment has been arranged , i'ho gymnasium is 87x55 in sl/o , and it bus a gallery built around it that may be util- /.ed for the accommodation of visitors upon exhibition nights , but is designed specially ns n rueo track.

Goodman Dmcr company. An Appeal. The following circular letter has been is sued by President Fitzgerald of the Irish National League : To tlio oftlcers nnd members of the Irish National League of Auiorion : The foulest conspiracy known to British history since tlic days of Titun Dates has Iniou outered into bythe present government of Kngland , under cover of the London Times newspaper , for the purpose of thwarting tbn efforts of Mr. Pnrnell and his ( -ollcugues tq secure by constitutional agitation the logisUHivo rights of the Irish people. Falling by every other device known to tbo tryant and oppressor to repress the as pirations of men who , struggling for liberty , already bogiu to breath its atmosphere , this lory government , heulcii in its rolu of the tiger , now descends to thu slimy methods of tbo sot-pent. Salisbury and his cabinet have stooped to employ moral hravos , forgers , perjurers and outcasts of nocioty to forswear the characters ofthe Irish loaders , and thus drive them from publlo life , hoping thereby to .force the Irish people to adopt as their only alternative the policy ot violence and des i pair , a policy which iu Ireland's poverty and helplessness could only end in her o\yn do- struotion. Even iu this last infamous design this most despicable of all British governments begins to fear the exposure of its unexampled tur pitude. Tim roynl commission created by the tory government mid framed with a view to accord Mr. Parnell and his friend only thut modicum of justice whicnovau cor ruption must "pay to public decency , has proved Itself incapable of de.scondliig to the level of tory baseness. The opening state ment of tno attorney general has failed in its evil intent. Several of the witnesses have , under cross-examination , made admis sions more damaging to the enemies of Mr. Parnell than to himself and his colleagues. The evidence the Irish leaden * are prepared to offer will prove beyond a doubt the infamy of the government and its musk , the London Times , in attempting by means of forged letters to destroy not only the representa tives of the Irisli people , but the vcnorablo statesmen , who , as leader of the British liberals , has dared to inaugurate u I olicy of justice and conciliation between the people of Great Britain and Ireland. Bttfilod utovery point of its ignoble and malicious courxo the Salisbury cabinet is now striving to kcap back thu ilamniiig cvidciicu held bv iho Irish loaders , by prolonging and extending the commission anil consequently increasing the enormous costs in thu hope of compelling Mr. Parnell to abandon the case for want of fii'ids to meet the heavy ex penditures forced upon him nnd bis friends. Irishmen of America ! Vou have nobly supported and encouraged Mr. Parnell in his Contest with tlio enemies of Ireland , He stands now before- the bar of British public- opinion to answer the charges of villainous conspirators with Englan I'M nccrot service money to their back. Will you deaurt him now ! Will you , by apathy und indifference , aid Uiu foul conspiracy tmtt bccltH to morally assassinate the foremost mini of tlio Irish people f Concentrated in him to-day tire the luollngs and aspirations of thu world-wido Irish race , uud shall Charles Stuart Parnull become tlio victim of thu forger and perjurer because he has not the inone.v that necessity will compel him to uxpond to defeat the machinations of his and Ireland's enemies' To harbor such u thought would bo an inj suit to every man of Irish blood.

The promptness with which its cordial intlit- oueo is felt is indeed surprising.

Any honest intelligent physi cian will tell her that there is more real strength and nourishment in a slice of bread than , in a quart of boor ; but if she needs stimulants it would bo n useless piece of information. It is claimed that some of the lady dorks in our own city , and those , too , who are employed "in respectable business houses , are in the habit of ordering aloof of beer in the restaurants. They prob ably claim that they are 'tired , ' and no ono who sees their faithful devotion to customers all day will doubt their asser tions. Hut they should not mistake beer for a blessing or stimulus for strength. A careful examination of statistics will show tlmtmon and women who do not drink can endure more hard ships and more work and live longer than those less temperate.
