Result of Last Nights Meeting.

Since the second day of January, Messrs.
Parnell and Dillon have had brief and rare
intervals of rest from just such experiences
as they have had for the last thirty-six hours.
Night before last they addressed large meet
ing of sympathizers with Ireland at Madison,
Wis. Yesterday morning they addressed a
meeting at Winona, and on the way to st.
Paul, besides meeting and talking with scores
of individuals, they were called out to speak
by crowds assembled to greet them at every
stopping place. Last night they spoke in
st. Paul and Minneapolis, and carly this
morning they are to start fer Du-
buque. This daily round Of
labor does not seem to have
seriously affected Mr.. Parnell. but his COM
panion, Mr.. Dillon, who Is not go vigorous,
appears to have need of rest. MIR. Parnell has
dark brown eyes, light hair and beard, fair
complexion and a slim but strong form.
MIR. Dillon is of similar form with black hair
and eyes. MIR. James Murdoch, editor of
the Highlander of Scotland, who was with
them at Chicago and was expected here, h Us
gone into the interior &C Illinois to attend
meetings which Parnell and Dillon could not
attend. Mr.. Murdoch, who wears the high
land dress and is a warm advocate of land law
reform, is said to bs an earnest and effec-
tive speaker.
AT wINoNA.
Mr.. Parnell reached Wlnoua and visited
the Normal school about 10 o'clock yester-
day morning and made an address to the
pupils, congratulating them onthe education
al advantages enjoyed in America, and con-
trasting these with the former discourage
ment of popular education in Ireland under
British rule. Meantime q urge meeting
was assembled at Normal hall. Prof. Phelps
as chairman made short address, and Hon.
VIM. Fl. Yale welcomed the gentlemen to
Winona and Minnesota, after which Messrs.
Parnell and Dillon addressed the meeting.
Besides the receipts from sales of admission
tickets about $500 was contributed at the
meeting, mostly by farmers who had come
in from the country towns to see Parnell
and Dillon, and hear their speeches. At a
meeting held Monday night last over 5000
was contributed by citizens of Winona.
These sums will be forwarded by the Winona
committee to the Irish National | and league,
which Mr.. Parnell represents.
At Winona the Irish gentlemen were met
by Q. M. MacCarthy, of st. Paul, and DIR.
d. f. Collins and Mr.. Ed. Mcdonnell, of
Minneapolis, charged to acquaint them with
the arrangements for their reception and the
meetings in the two cities. The Winopa
committee had chartered special train to
convey the party to st. Paul and credit is to
be given MIR. VIM. A. Allen, of the Winona
committee, for his care in this as well as for
goodly share of the labor which made the
Winona meeting a success. From Winona
Gov. Yale, Aid. Scott and Mr.. B. Langley
came with the party as far as Lake City,
while Rev. A. Christie, of Waseca, and Rev.
j. B. Cotter, Mr.. Allen and Mr.. F. Rhein-
berger, all of Winona, came through with
the party to st. Paul.
CROWDS WERE GATHERED
at every depot passed, evidently anxious
to have q look at the distinguished visitors
and hear few words from them. At Waba-
shaw large crowd was assembled, and the
Irish societies of the place were out with a
band, ready to show the good will of Waba-
shaw for old Ireland, but unfortunately the
arrangement was not known on board the
special train, and no stop was made at Wa
bashaw. At Lake City Mr.. Psrnell was in
troduced to the people in waiting by Rev.
Mr.. Quin, and spoke briefly.
