A JUBILEE CLOCK FOR THE POPE,

The Roman Catholics of the watchmaking districts
of the Swiss Jura have resolved to celebrate the
Jubilee of Pope Leo XIII. by presenting him wit') a
really unique product of their skill in the shape of a
golden clock. The commission to make the papal
Jubilee clock has been given to a mechanician of
great local repute, Irenmus Aubry, a native of Saigno-
legier, in the Bernese Jura. M. Aubry has exhibited
the drawings of the prposed clock, and has shrewdly
taken out a patent for the novelty, so as to prevent
imitators. The Pope's timekeeper is to go for 40
days withot.t winding up. M. Aubry states that he
has certain improvements in view which will enable
him to turn out a cheap clock, which will only need
to be wound ap once every quarter.

POLICE RAID ON A LONDON
GAMBLING CLUB.

On Saturday afternoon an extraordinary scene was
witnessed within a short distance of the Elephant and
Castle, in South London. For the past few weeks
premises in Newington-butts, which were formerly
used as a coffee tavern, have been conducted as a club
under the title of the Clock Tower Club, tile premises
being immediately opposite the Clock Tower in New-
ington-butts. It had come to the knowledge of the
police authorities that an extensive system of gambling
took place there, and it was decided to put a stop to
it. On Saturday, at half-past four o'clock, Chief In-
spector Chisholm, L Division, with a number of in-
spectors, sergeants, detectives, and a large contingent
of constables, surrounded the premises and gained an
entrance, when they discovered that the premises
were occupied by men, all of whom were gambling
with cards and dice. The police arrangements
had been so complete that no person escaped from
the premises; and the authorities, having seized
all the gambling articles, together with a large
sum of money which was being gambled for, and
papers relating to various transactions, took the
persons found on the premises in batches of six and
eight to Kennington-lane Police-station, where they
were charged. In the meantime the whole thorough-
fare of Newington-butts and Lower Kennington-lane
became so crowded with persons that it was with
difficulty and some danger that the vehicular traffic
was carried on. The utmost excitement pievailed in
the crowd, which had become so great that a further
contingent of police had to be sent for. The affair
having become known, many of the prisoners' friends
arrived upon the scene, and at one time it was feared
that an attempt to rescue would be made. The
process of escorting the prisoners to the station-house
took a considerable time. At eight o'clock at night
there were 80 persons in cueody, their ages varying
from 16 years to 60. Up to a late hour a large crowd
lingered about the premises and the police-station,
and during the evening several of the defendants were
bailed out.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS.-STATEMENT OF
THE POLICE.

A correspondent, telegraphing from Mitchels•
town on Saturday morning, said: The town has re-
trained quiet throughout the night. Nearly all of
those who attended the demonstration have returned
to their homes. There is a great deal of suppressed
excitement on both sides, but no further outbreak is
expected here. A considerable force of police remain
in the town. The police version of the outbreak
gives a very different complexion to the lamentable
occurrence when compared with Dome of tho pub.
liuhed rnporta. They state that when it was
;fie4 that the Nationalist leaders intonded speak-
ing a siclographer With its accordance with
guiding instructional mut forward under atoor4

to take a shorthand note of the speeches.
The crowd, which was largely composed of
Tipperary "boys," armed with blackthorn sticks,
resisted the escort, and kept them from reaching
the platform. Then some one from among
the speakers shouted out, "Hold together, boys," and
the mob, taking this for the signal for active resist-
ance, closed in round the little band of 15 policemen,
atoning and clubbing them without mercy. Up to that
moment the police declared that their batons had not
been used, but the constables were now compelled to
fight for their lives, and even when, by holding solidly
together, they got cleAr of the crowd, the people still
kept up the fight, chasing the constables right into
the b. necks, and belabouring them with shillelaghs
and stoning them during the whole of the retreat.
Every man among that escort of 15 sustained wounds
of more or less serious nature. Arriving in the bar-
racks, the police state that the mob continued to
throw stones, and fearing that, flushed with their
success in having beaten back the escort, they
would next attempt to carry the building, a few
blank cartridges were fired. But as the stone-
throwing still.went on, and the attitude of the mob
became more threatening, ball cartridge was used.
Seeing that the riot was one d serious dimensions, it
is declared that the police had no option but to clear
th 3 square, and as forty more constables were
severely injured in carrying out this order, the police
authorities consider that that fact alone proves that
the Tipperary and other contingents had come to
Mitchelstown for the express purpose of creating a
riot. The constabulary emphatically alleged that
there would have been no riot had it not been for the
order shouted from the Nationalist platform to the
crowd to "Hold together." One or two of the con-
stables whose wounds are very severe are in a tad
way now. Scores of those who took no part in the
rioting, but who got mixed up with the active dis-
orderly element, were injured in the police charges.

A MILITANT RECTOR.

On Saturday the Rev. Robert Gray, rector of
Toiler Porcorum, near Dorchester, was charged with
assaulting a farmer named Yeates, one of his
parishioners. The defendant was at the village inn
one day on business, when he overheard a conversa-
tion at the bar between Mr. Yeates, who had formerly
been churchwarden of the parish, but had resigned,
and some other gentlemen. The defendant thought
that Mr. Yeates' remarks reflected upon him-
self, and he went up to Mr. Yeates, and,
putting his clenched fist in the latter's face,
told him that if he (the defendant) had not
been a clergyman of the Church of England, he
would have knocked him down. Some further alter-
cation ensued, ending in the defendant striking Mr.
Yeates a 'violent blow with his fist on the side of the
head. Yeates thereupon closed with his assailant,
And a severe struggle ensued, in which Yeates re-
turned the blows. In defence, the rev, gentleman
urged that Yeates had behaved in a most unseemly
manner towards him during the last 12 months, and
that he had repeatedly received the greatest provoca-
tion from him during that time. After a protracted
hearing, the defendant, who conducted his own ease,
was ordered to pay a penalty of .£5. The Bench de.
clining to allow the defendant to appeal, the money
was paid.

TRADE.

On Wednesday large meetings of wrought-nail
makers were held at Rowley, Blackheath, and 011
Elill, at each oi which it was resolved to continue
the stri, -1 until the euaployers conceded the 1879
list of p: ces,—Mr. Price and others addressed the
meeting:, in the course of which they painted out
that the lembers of the association considered that
the oper .-ives had no alternative but to turn out
en strike a order to get an advrince in wages. If
the nailn ,kers were only united the strike would
be of she. duration.—At Sedgley and Upper Gornal
and Lower Gornal a large number of operatives
hai e turned out on strike.

"Well, sir," said James; "I'll
run it over for you. I've told it lots
of times, and it's always done good
to somebody. It was two years ago
this summer that I was taken very
bad with indigestion. How ill I was,
and how I finally got cured, is no
news to the people in this part of the
country, sir. Scores of them came
from far and near to see me and
talk to me about it. I first noticed
a dull feeling all over me, and my
appetite failed so I could eat nothing
without just forcing it down, sir;
and then it lay like a heavy weight
•
on my stomach. Food used to make
me feel strong for work and exercise,
but now it seemed to do me no good
at all. My mouth tasted bad, and
when I looked in the glass I saw
my skin and eyes had a yellow
colour, and people said I was dread-
fully bilious, my liver was out of
order, and my blood all full of poison.
And so I believed, for my head
ached and my legs and arms ached,
as though I had some manner of
fever hold of me. I took pills, and
a hundred other medicines, but they
only made me feel a little easier
for a day or two, and then I was
worse than ever.,

"After a bit, sir, I began to be
short of breath, you know, and had
to sit down and rest, when once I
could tramp all day without being
tired or once fetching a long breath.
I couldn't make out what was the
matter with me or whatever had
brought it on, but I kept on getting

PRISONERS IN COURT.

At the Lambeth Police-court, on Mon-clay, the men
captured at the gaming house, 107, Newington-butts,
and known as the Clock Tower Club, were charged
with offences under the 4th section of the Gaming
House Act. Long before ten o'clock a very large
crowd assembled in front of the court, and a strong
body of police had to be on duty. Of the number
captured, 85 had been let out on bail. J. J. Hunt
47, was charged with keeping a house for the purpose
of gamine; and H. W. Wier, 33, bookmaker, D.
Farman, 38, J. Clayton, 29, W. Foote, 29, W. Hearne,
4(1, W. Linskey, 30, and H. Billeness, 43, were
charged with aiding in conducting the same house as
a gaming house. Mr. Biron said it would only be
necessary to have just sufficient evidence for a re-
mand, Superintendent Sheppard stated that he went
to the house, 107, Newington-butts, pushed open the
door, passed the doorkeeper, and went into a large
room at the back. Be there saw over 40 or 50 men
around a table. Three persons on one side had
large heaps of silver and other coins before them.
There was a large amount of money placed on
the numbers painted on the cloth. Another
man was throwing dice, and one of the
party, seeing Chief - inspector Chisholm fol-
lowing witness, shouted "Here's the police." There
was a wild panic, persons rushing in all directions.
Witness got on the stage at the end of the room and
called upon them not to resist, as the police had
entire possession of every outlet. Order being partly
restored, the place was searched. The prisoner Hunt
was found under the platform or stage. When
witness first went in a man was at an Exchange Tele-
graph machine, and was calling out the results with
regard to Sandown races and another man was evi-
dently booking bets. All the prisoners having been
gathered in the room, their names were taken, and
they were sent to the station in batches. At the station
witness charged them with the offences mentioned on
the cha -'c-sheet. Mr. Biron asked if the witness was
able to 45.aentify all the prisoners, and he said he could
scarcely do that. Eighty-five defendants were allowed
out on their own bail. With regard to Hunt, his
worship said he must find two sureties in .£lOO. The
other defendants were likewise called upon to find
bail, chiefly two sureties in .£lO. It was ultimately
agreed to take the next hearing on Thursday.

NEWS OF MR. STANLEY,

Major Barttelot, who was left at the camp at
Yambunga at the foot of the Aruwhinii rapids with a
garrison of about 100 men, has forwarded the follow-
ing information to Leopoldville concerning Mr. H. M.
Stanhy's expedition: Major Barttelot received news
from Mr. Stanley, despatched about July 12, after he
had made a ten days' march from Yambunga towards
the interior. Mr. Stanley was at that date still pro-
ceeding, up the Aruwhimi, which he had found to he
navigable up to a certain distance above the rapids.
Here he launched a steel whale-boat which he had
brought with him, as well as several rafts menu
factured by the expedition, and which had
been utilised for conveying the heavy bag-
gage. All the members of the expedition were in
good health, and provisions were easily procured
In the large villages near the river. The country
through which the expedition was passing showed a
gradual rise towards some high table-lands. Another
caravan of 480 men was following the expedition on
the left bank of the Aruwhimi, the advanced guard
consisting of 40 Zanzibaris, under the command of
Lieutenant Stairs, being composed of men lightly
burdened, whose duty was to search for provisions,
Mr. Stanley hoped to arrive about July 22 in the
centre of the Mabodi district, and expected to reach
Wadelai in the middle of August, or even before. The
advance had been so peaceably accomplished that Mr.
Stanley had instructed Major Barttelot that should it
continue so he would shortly send him orders to follow
the expedition by the same route at the head of the
100 men left at Yarnbungs.
Major Barttelot had paid a visit to the Falls, ac-
companied by Tippoo Tib, and had left a detachment
of 20 men there. Tippoo Tib arrived at the Falls
Station on June 16.

OPENING OF THE INQUEST.

Mr. trooper, the Coroner, on Tuesday afternoon
opened an inquest at the London Hotel, but simply to
take evidence of identification and give orders for the
interment of those bodies that are past all recognition.
The Coroner, in opening the proceedings, said
he scarcely knew how to approach such a sickening
melancholy spectacle as the sight of so many of their
fellow-citizens now lying dead as the jury would be
called upon to view, hurried so suddenly into eternity
whilst in the pursuit of innocent enjoyment. He was
sure they would aid him on this trying occasion in
rendering him their valuable assistance in ascertaining
the cause of SO sad and dire a calamity. It not only
cast a gloom over their ancient and loyal city, but over
the county of Devon. He proposed that day to open
the inquiry, and alloW as many of the bodies to be iden-
tified as possible, and then he proposed to adjourn
for the further identification of such as could not
then be identified. As for those whom they would
shortly have the opportunity of looking upon, and who
could not be identified, he considered that, for the
sake Of the public health, a general order for burial
should, in a sanitary point of view, be issued. But,
before that was done, he wished every exertion to be
used for the purpose of identification for the satisfac-
tion of those who would have melancholy recollections
of that day. Captain Showers, the Chief Constable,
having given formal evidence, the painful ceremony
of identification was gone through for several hours,
the great majority of bodies being recognised.

THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE THEATRE.
It appears extraordinary that in a theatre opened
'o recently, and designed by an architect holding so
high a place in his profession as Mr. Phipps, there
should have been but one exit from the gallery; and
it is still more extraordinary that such a building
should have ever received a license. Twice previously
have theatres been burned in Exeter, the last being
in February, 1885, but as it was after the perform-
ance there was no loss of life or personal injury. A
company formed to build a new theatre decided
to construct it on a fresh site, admirably selected,
at tho junction of Longbrook-street and New
North-road, thus giving entrances and exits on
two sides of the triangle, of which the third was the
back of the stage. The designs of Mr. Phipps were
accepted, and the theatre was opened in the autumn
of last year. The auditorium consisted of three tiers.
On the basement were the stalls and pit; above them
the dress circle and boxes, and on the still higher tier
the upper circle and gallery, these being divided by a
railing. Thera were three entrances and exits to the
pit, two to the stall (one a very awkward one up a
flight of steps to the gallery exit), two to the dress
circle, two to the second circle (one opening half-way
on the gallery stairs), and only one to the gallery.
It may be stated that the stairway to the latter had
some four turns in it, and was nearly six feet in width
throughout.

THE NUMBER OF THE DEAD.

The appalling catastrophe of Monday night, which
may almost literally be said to have made Exeter a
city of mourning, is, unfortunately, of even a more
dreadful character than was at first imagined. The
number of persons who have perished will, perhaps,
never be known exactly, but the estimate of dead on
Tuesday evening was certainly no less than 130, while
one account placed it as high as 166, and in addition
some 60 or 70 persons received injuries of a more or
less serious character.
