NEW YORK.

New York. Feb. 15.-Major Leach,
of the Irish International Rifle Team,
has written letter stating that the
annual match for the all ireland, or
Leach challenge shield, heretofore
open to Irish clubs only, is now open
to Americans also but to no other ma
tionality. The ranges are to be one
thousand and eleven yards, and the
shield to remain in the county of the
winning team until the next annual
match.
Rev. Father Ryan, President of the
Catholic Total Abstinence Union, has
written letter advising that the or
ganization should not take part in pa
rades on st. Patrick's day, partly on
the ground of the excessive expense,
and partly for the reason that parades
detract from the religious associations
of the day,
Mrs. Wells and a child were burned
to death this morning In a tenement
house on East Ninth Street.
In the Beecher case to-day the cross
examination of Tilton was continued.
He was asked if lie said that if Beech
er resigned he would shoot him on the
street. Witness replied that he did
not, but said that if he published a
letter of resignation rejecting on his,
Tilton's, family, he would shoot him
on the street, and he most assuredly
would have done it. In regard to Mrs.
Tilton's letter of Dec. 7, 1872, witness
testified that he did not write the letter
nor draft 1t. II was written by Mrs
Tilton, after consultation with witness
as to the phraseology of part of it.
Fullerton asked the witness his
foundation for the belief he had
avowed to Evarts during his cross
examination, that his wife was good
woman, in view of the charge OF
adultery now brought against her. In
other words, how could he reconcile
such a statement with the charge
against her. Witness replied that he
could only answer for his own judg-
ment of her behavior; that he knew
Elizabeth when he was ten years old,
was her confessed lover at sixteen and
married her when twenty, and that
for the fifteen years of their married
life he held her in reverence almost
to the point of making her an idol,
and when her downfall came it was
almost necessity of his heart that he
must find some excuse for her. Others
might blame, but he must pardon her.
He found that excuse in the fact that
she had been completely wrapped up
In her religious teacher; she had sur
rendered her convictions to him and
followed his lead trustingly and like
one blind. He thought she sinned as
one in a trance; he did not think she
was free agent, but would have done
his bidding, if, like the Hindoo priest,
he had bade her throw her child into
the Ganges or cast herself before the

Chicago, Feb. l5.-A Washington
special says that while the members
of the Louisiana'committee which has
returned to Washington are unwilling
to give any official statement OF their
views, pending the consideration of
the compromise movement, it is pri-
yately known that the Republican
members differ materially with their
colleagues of the subcommittee in
reference to Louisiana affairs. They
say that the condition of affairs there
is terrible. There is practically no
government. Kellogg, they declare,
is rather weak than wicked. 4e has
no strength, and could not maintain
himself a day II the troops were
Withdrawn. The best element among
the Conservatives favored the first
compromise proposition, which was
substantially proposition to give the
Conservatives the control of the Leg
islature by seating the members whose
certificates were withheld by the re-
turning board, and allowing Kellogg
to retain unmolested possession of the
Executive Office. This compromise
was defeated by the ultra Conserva-
tives, led by the Bulletin newspaper
and by McEnery and others. There
are still hopes of some such compro-
mise being adopted.

Boston, Feb. 15.-The crews of sew
eral fishing vessels caught in the ice
at Provincetown, managed to reach
the shore to-day after a perilous jour
ney, in some instances of hours, leav-
ing the vessels to their fate. There
are dozen vessels whose crews are
entirely out of provisions and fuel,
and unless succor can reach them they
must perish from cold and hunger.
Some of them are ten or twelve miles
from shore, with ice piled up many
feet thick for miles, with treacherous
air-holes, and wide stretches of open
water which render escape impossible.
Unless the weather moderates within
the next twenty-four hours, with
westerly winds, the most disastrous
results must ensue.

Christmas Festivities.

Editor of The Dallas Herald
Aside from the Christmas trees
erected in various churches, it was my
privilege to witness two of the most
ioyful occasions of the kind In private
residences which deserve mention.
On Christmas eve at their residence
on Bryan street, Mr.. and Mrs. William
g. 5terrett, gladdened many youthful
and infantile hearts, the children OF
their more immediate neighbors,
through the richly ladened Ranches
of a magnificent Christmas tree.
About fifty received appropriate marks
of the kindly esteem of their young
host and hostess. Kris Kringle was
received with appropriate. marks of
respect and dispensed the gifts with
evident delight to himself as well as
the little ones. Sterrett, Jr., otherwise
Malcolm, the rare, supported by his
little cousin Babbie, added not little
to the mirth of the happy occasion,
while Miss J-e, the assistant of Santa
Claus, deported herself with the grace
of a queen. ftsFt tlLft8F.
On the succeeding night, Mr.. and
Mrs. w. +. Lyle, at their beautiful
cottage Oh itOsS hNcnuej uupiicatcu the
pleasures of the previous evening, re-
joicing the little ones, and bringing
back the days OF youth to those OF ma
ture years. From the sprightly babe
of n few months, to the winsome maid
of thirteen, the old folks caught the
contagion, and joy beamed on every
face, and many were the wishes that
the young parents might live to repeat
the pleasures long after the year A. ID.
1900 shall have been rolled In the scroll
of time.
At each place the festivities en-
braced q rich repast prepared by the
ladies themselves, and ere the Recorder
of Time sounded the midnight hour,
all dispersed, invoking blessings on
those who had afforded them so much
and such sweet pleasure.
