THE FREE FENIANS.
Ten Years Have SiIvered Their Hair.

National Associated Press to the Star.
New York, Sept. 30-Edward O'Meagher
Condor, for whom rope was woven and a
coffin prepared on the occasion of the
execution of Allen, Larkin and O'Bren,
at Manchester, England, arrived here
yesterday. Ten years of confinement
in British prisons have turned the hair of
his companion Melody gray, while that of
Condor himself is touched with the same
hue. Besides the experiences of these two
men the stories of ordinary romance are
tame Condemned to death, respited ON
the eve of execution, forced to pass long in
tervals in the torture of doubt and uncer-
tainty, immured in solitary confinement,
driven to the verge of sickness by hard
ships which promised to be lifelong, only
to be suddenly thrust forth into the broad
glare OF unexpected freedom, such is the
retrospect of these exiFes who now tread
the streets of New York.

Another Acklen Scandal.

NdllOLdl AsSOCluIeu leSS w llle quar-.
New ORLEANS, Sept. 30-The death of
Harry L. Smith on Saturday evening
brought Hon. ]. H. Acklen again into un-
pleasant prominence. About three years
since a scandal was rife on the Bayou
Teche, in which Acklen and a young
woman connected with the Palfody family,
one of the oldest in the State were impli-
Gated. 1t was publicly stated that Acklen
seduced and then married her to his hostler
to cover up the crime.
1t is certain that the hostler married her.
brought her to this city, and then deserted
her. Not long after, child was born. The
affair was generally discussed, and Acklen
severely censured. He, however, produced
certain affidavits from the girl and her
mother, setting forth that the alleged out
rage was fabrication.
Smiths papers are sealed and can only be
opened by his administrator, when the true
state of affairs will be known.
