VICTORY upon victory for Parnell!
Cork City, Meath and Mayo, have pro-

teated in Cork county, the defeat has
been 50 nearly victory that the Parnell.
ties still rejoice. Many people have
looked on the contest in Cork with un-
usual interest, since really the great
question to be decided by it was how far
the people were to be Influenced by the
expressed wishes of their clergy. These
latter have always been able to bring
their favorite through triumphantly, and
many find food for prophecy in the fact
that, Notwithstanding all the bishops
and priests of Cork were arrayed against

lacked but one hundred and fifty votes of

The career of the fiery, untamed
train boy is receiving an occasional
check, nowadays, and it is not too
much to expect that in the course OF
time he will cease to tyrannize over
the helpless traveller, and to assume the
sole proprietorship Of train and railway.
Selling books, papers and edibles upon
the trains is not by any means
a reprehensibie occupation; on the
other hand it is often con.
venience to the traveller. The
offense is in the manners in which
many of these young venders indulge
and their persistence in importuninq
those who do not wish to patronize
them. In many cases pass engers are
absolutely prosecuted by The attentions
OF these imps who thrust their wares
into the victims laps, urge them tc
purchase and even wake the sleepers
with their awful war cry. Railway man
ayers owe it to those who pay for com.
Portable transportation to protect them
from this annoyance, and this they have
OF late years begun to do. The Chica.
go q Northwestern company, for in.
stance, has taken the abuse in hand
and issued strict rules for the govern
ment Of news agents which are vel
adapted to the case.

On the occasion of the anniversary of
the birth of Francis Joseph of Austria,
the city of Spalato, Dalmatia, celebrated
the reopening CT the aqueduct which
brings water from Salona to the city,
and which was built by the Dalmatian
Emperor Diocletian. The curious fea-
ture about the affair is that, notwith-
standing the sore need Of water under
which the city has always labored, the
aqueduct had never been repaired and
had therefore been unavailable tor
fourteen centuries.

A NOBLE MURDERER.
A Swell Englishman In Colorado
Prison for Life.
Denver Correspondence Chicago Zines.

Denver Correspondence Chicago fines.
While on a recent tour in Canon
City went through the state prison,
which, among it's inmates, has cele.
brity in the person of an English noble
man, with mania for killing some
body. He would not be interviewed,
but the Times man learned the facts, all
the same, which are as follows:
In 1873, an English nobleman who
parts his name in the middle, a. G..
Larkyn Price, came on visit to this
new country of h'America. He ex-
tended his visit to this state to see 3
deaH fwend, Reginald De Neave, who
wore the rank of baron. Price was q
profigate son, and had been over in
South America for q few years on q
"tear," where he is admitted to have
killed seven men. His family were
very wealthy and that accounts for his
not having been, punished.
His friend, Reginald De Neave, lived
in Mountain valley, not far from Canon
City, and inviled Price to visit his
country "manor." Price accepted the
hospitality in August, 1872, remaining
until December ID. when he malicious
ly murdered his friend and most. On
that fatal evening several friends had
assembled for social time, and the
question of Christmas dinner was
being discussed, and preparations made.
Price, who was in his normal state OF
drunkenness, took De Neave's pipe, q
keepsake. De Neave good-humoredly
smoked from another pipe, and q few
moments later took his favorite pipe
from Prices pocket, remarking: Il
am even with you now." All this was
in good humor, but at this moment
Price seems to have got angry, and
asked De Neave to walk out of the
room q moment. Not suspecting any
thing, he did 80, when Price stabbed
him to the heart.
For this unprOvOked and most cruel
and cowardly murder Price was tried
the following April. He was ably de.
Tended by Judge Stone, now Of the
supreme court, Senator II. M. Zeller,
Maj. Locke, and an eminent London
barrister, who came over especially for
that purpose. Price was prosecuted by
District Attorney Henry. now judge Of
that district, and T. Macon, Esq. at
present leading lawyer in Denver.
The jury at once metayhorically sat
down on the assassin Price, and he was
sentenced to prison for life. His wealthy
relatives have made two formidable
efforts to secure his pardon. Lord
Lyons and Minister Thornton appealed
to Grant when this state was q terri.
tory, but the great free ticket tourist re-
fused to pardon him.
Before Price killed De Neave he had
made three attempts to kill as many
different men within four months, and
it is said he seemed to have the "kill-
ing mania," and that he was never hap
py, unless be was in O quarrel and
drunk.
