THE LEGEND OF GHOST LANE.

You see, away back IN 1871, OF along theTe
somewhere, there lived maiden in Saint
Andrews, beautiful Canadian named Penn
igewaset McKirchenthumbach the lOveliest
flower that ever grew in the sunshine and
showers Of Charlotte county, chaste as Dia-
ma, true as Penelope; the vioets paled in
the blue of Ter eyes and pearls sold for sec
ond choice in the pools when she smiled
ivory white was her broad high brow, for
she didn't comb her bangs down into her
eyes like the foretop of a Shetland pony,
and the semi occasional fogs of her native
land kept down the freckles and cleared
away the tan.

New York, May 19.-The Worlds
Washington special says: The opinion
is gaining ground among the republic
cans that Conkling has plans ahead
which will yet work mischief with the
party. His announcement, as pnb-
lished in these dispatches with the news
of his resignation, that he intended to
seek to be returned as an independent
senator, is now construed to mean that,
realizing that there is no promotion for
him in the party, AMI nothing ahead to
encourage him, he will first seek a re-
organization, and, failing in this, aim
at destruction. There is even some
wild talk that he may go over to the
democrats in order to accomplish this.
Whatever there may be in them, there
are mysterious whisperings about of a
coming sensation that will eclipse the
resignation. Hints come from stalwart
sources, that Gen. Grant is to be heard
from in some stunning way; but jnst
what effect this would produce is not
explained.

New York, May 10. = Recorder
Smyth, in passing sentence on one Of a
gang of hoodlums who broke into a
Chinese laundry on the Sth, and stole
$50 and maltreated the Cinnamon, said:
1t has become the custom in other
cities to look on Chinese laundrymen
with disfavor. Roughs like you, who
spend most of their time in idleness and
debauchery while the Chinese are ac-
quiring an honest livelihood, fancy they
have full license to beat, rob, and even
kill them. However successful this
mob rule may have been i'll other cities,
desire to announce officially that its
course here, so far as this court has
power to prevent it, shall be short-lived
and unpleasant. The severe punish
ment am about to impose upon you
may be expected by all those who dis
turb the peace and dignity of the COM
munity by outrageous attacks upon
those who to all appearances are inof-
fensive. The sentence of the court is
that you be confined in the state prison
two years and six months.

London, May 10. : Gladstone re-
appeared in the house of commons this
evening and was much cheered.
Sir Charles w. Dixie, under foreign
secretary, announced that an invitation
had been received from France to COM
mence Immediately in London negotia-
tions for a renewal Of the treaty of
commerce. The commissioners on the
part of France would be Chattereul,
Lacour, the French ambassador, Marc,
the director of the foreign section Of
the ministry of commerce, and Consul
General Bovilat. Her majesty's gov
ernment will Immediately appoint COM
missioners. He expressed the hope that
the first meeting Of the commissioners
will take place on Tuesday next.
The executive committee of the Irish
party in the house of commons has de-
cided to adhere to the resolution in
favor of abstaining from voting when
division is called on the second read
ing of the land bill.
Debate on the second reading of the
land bill was resumed. Parnell said
he regretted that he could not join in
the division on this stage of the bill, the
principle of which he regarded as de-
fective. 1t proposed, he said, no new
principle, and only proposed to restore
what the bill of 1870 was intended to
give. Parnell urged tire government to
transplant the surplus population to
land capable of Improvement, find en-
ployment for the people and create an
increased supply of food, instead of
getting out of the difficulty by promot-
ing emigration. One of the great rea-
sons why Irish enterprise was so kept
down, was that Ireland was under the
curse of foreign rule, and until the
English rulers were cleared out, bag
and baggage, there would be little hope
for the Irish people.
Sir Stafford Northcote said he feared
the bill would not have the effect of
pacifying the people.
Lord Elcho's motion that the leading
provisions of the bill are economically
unsound, unjust and impolitic. was
rejected by vote of 352 to 176. The
announcement of the vote was received
with loud cheers from the supporters OF
the ministry.
Parnell, on going from the house with
about Is of his followers, without vot
| ing, was greeted with derision.

The Monetary Conference.

Paris, May 19.-At the monetary
conference to-day, most of the delegates
who had already spoken, replied to the
arguments adduced by the subsequent
speeches against the views propounded
by them. Evarts and Dodge recapitu-
lated their arguments in favor of bimet-
allism, and with their speeches the gem
eral discussion closed.
The conference was intensely inter-
ested in the very able speech of Judge
Howe, who outlined the American po-
sition on bimetallism in the United
States. He said: "We are not here on
behalf of the mine owners, to bull the
market for silver. Agriculture is our
chief interest; our annual cotton crop
is worth seven times, wheat crop twelve
times, and corn crop eighteen times the
average annual product of our silver
mines. America is seeking for herself
and the world, a broad and stable
money basis upon which $50, 600, 900 of
the worlds indebtedness can rest,

Paris, May 19.-Jules Ferry, presi-
dent of the council, read in the cham
Der of deputies to-day the text of the
Tunisian treaty, the substance of which
is already made known. He said the
treaty would be of mutual benefit. The
government entertained nothing but
friendly sentiments towards the bey,
and was disposed to give him fresh
proofs thereof. In the event of him
being threatened in his legitimate au-
therity and independence, no doubt
could exist in the minds of Europe OF
the intentions OF France. She should
be content with the treaty.

Circumstances Attending Fisk-s RE.
tirement

tfrement.
Washington, May 19.-Gen. Grants
letter to Senator Jones, published in
New York to-day, has elected the fol-
lowing authoritative statement in re-
gard to the circumstances attending
Fish's retirement from the diplomatic
service and the selection of Mr.. Cramer
to succeed him as charge d'affairs of
the United States at Berne: When
Gen. Grant was in Washington in
March, shortly after President Gar
fields Inauguration, he made several
requests of the president, of which the
latter made a written memorada in
Gen. Grants presence. The request
in regard to Mr.. Cramer was that he
might be transferred from Denmark to
a more southerly cline. Gen. Grant
specified that he did not ask higher
grade, only milder climate.
The resignation of Mr.. Fish from
the Swiss mission, the same grade as
Denmark, opened the way for the pres
ident to comply with Gen. Grant s
earnest wish, personally expressed. In
regard to the resignation of Fish, the
facts have already been stated. On
the 18th of February last, Nicholas
Fish, charge d'affairs of the United
States at Berne, Switzerland, addressed
to Mr.. Evarts, secretary of state, the
following letter: 81 enclose herewith a
dispatch rendering my resignation. l
feel that | can no longer retain my po.
sition here with justice to myself and
my family. When accepted it l had
hoped that it would soon be restored to
its former rank and pay, and you were
kind enough to lead me to believe that
upon such a restoration should be re-
tanned in office. 1 know what flood
Of applications the announcement of
my resignation would create, and
therefore, to protect the department
from them, l send my resignation in
an unnumbered dispatch to you. On
the 7th of March, in a communication
addressed to Mr.. Blaine, Mr.. Fish
mentioned his previous dispatch to Mr..
Evarts, and at the same time sent an
official duplicate addressed to Blaine.
Fish also wrote Blaine, promising
hearty support to the administration,
although insisting on his resignation
being accepted. Secretary Blaine ac-
cepted it in letter of the kindliest
tone and expression of interest and
regret, Later Blaine cabled Fish an
offer Of the Danish mission, having
heard that he would like to remain IN
the diplomatic service. Fish responded:
mo. thank you. Want promotion.
Could l have Berlin" The Berlin
mission could not be given him, so the
correspondence ceased.

stitution has been endorsed by large

members of the party in various sister
states, who have sent close ON two
thousand telegrams to the new leader,
conveying words of cheer and congrat-
ulation.

Heneybeck, Ind., May 1s.-Alexan-
der McPheters this morning killed his
wife and sister-in-law, Ellen Bloxom,
shot at his mother-in-law, and then
killed himself. Domestic trouble and
dissipation were the cause. They had
been married two years and had one
child. They had quarrelled frequently
and the wife had asked for a divorce.
Both families were prominent.

San Antonio, Texas, May ia
desperate battle occurred on Tuesday
near Fort Ewell, between the State
rangers and 30 outlaws engaged in
stealing horses and cattle and running
them across the Rio Grande. One SOL
dier was killed. The outlaws were
routed, and two were captured. The
citizens have organized and gone after
the desperadoes.
