RAMPANT JINGOISM.
Enthusiastic Reception Of the British
Troops Back from Their Pic
mic in Egypt.

LONDON, Nov 20.-Jennings' special says:
Nothing has been thought, heard of, or seen
to-day in London but the review of the
troops, or, to use the fatulent style of the
moment, "The heroes of Tel-el-Kebir" The
soldiers who participated in to-day's demon
stration were in much more danger from the
inclemency of the weather at home than ever
they had been in Egypt, most of them not
having heard gun fred there except at dis
lance. Such public reception as
this would have been appropriate
enough in the case of troops which
had gone through a Peninsular war and
won Waterloo, OF through Crimean cam
paign and taken a Sebastopool 1t was
simply absurd when rendered to mon who had
been merely ont for a summers holiday
Jmgoism was never so triumphant might
say rampant-as it was to-day, and this under
the auspices OF the great anti-Jingo prophet,
Gladstone. The feeling among many of the
officers of the army, as 1 happen to know, is
one of disgust They feel that the demonstra-
ton was wholly unworthy of a great nation,
and they went home with the impress
sion that they had been taking part
in something like a circus procession.
The Radicals have every reason to
ashamed of it. The chief feature of the day
was the huge crowd, such crowd as is only
to be seen in London on holiday, and
must chronicle the remarkable enthusiasm
with which the queen was received every
where and by all classes. The loyalty of the
British people, in the metropolis at least, is
evidently as great as ever, and the cheers to-
day must have been highly unsatisfactory to
the extreme Radicals. The appearance of the
prince of Wales, who joined the royal pro-
cession at the foot of ST. James street, also
produced immense cheering. The London
populace like him as much as Gen. Grant
seems to have DONE

Waterspouts On Lake Tahoe.

Virginia New Enterprise
A few days ago, at the time when the recent
general snow and rain storm was brewing,
some gentlemen of the Comstock, who were
at Tahoe city, Witnessed grand and remark
able spectacle. The day was windy and the
lake rather rough, but number of persons
stopping at the hotel-our Comstockers among
tho number-concluded to go to the end of the
long wooden pier and try their luck at fishing.
They had not been long at the end of the pier
before their attention was attracted by great
roaring. Looking across the lake in tho direc-
ton of Glenbrook, they saw n regular cyclone
approaching Before the hurricane came a
long unbroken wave, at least fifteen feet in
height Knowing that this would sweep
the whole line of the pier, all present beat q
rapid retreat to the shore. When at safe
distance the party turned to gaze upon the in
coming wall of water. While thus employed
they were startled by tremendous roaring to
the northWard, and a moment after q cyclone
from that direction struck the lake. This sent
before it q huge wave which had soon attained
the height of that coming from the southwark.
In a few minutes the two waves came together.
When they struck column of water and spr
was sent into the air to the height of at least
100 feet The collision of the two waves was
followed by report that sounded like heavy
clap of thunder, A moment after this grand
shock of the waters five or six huge water
spouts made their appearance, all within an
area of three or four miles, and carried great
columns Of water and spray to the height Of
several hundreds of feet These circled to and
fro over the lake for some ten or fifteen min
utes, and then one after the other subsidized,
and for time thereafter there was almost a
dead calm

DEATH IN THE DEEP.

The Steamer with Which the West
with All on Board.
LONDON, Nov. 16.-The crew of the missing
boat from the steamship Westphalia have
landed at New Haven, and report that the
other steamer, with which the Westphalia was
in collision, went to the bottom with all on
board.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.-Much anxiety is
arising in regard to the collision in the English
channel early Monday morning, and fears
are entertained that the steamer which
was SO suddenly sunk with all on
board was the big emigrant ship of the
Red Star line, the Nederland, which sailed
from Antwerp on the 18th inst The agents
of the line in this city, Peter Wright & Sons,
are confident that the Inflated vessel is not
the Nederland, assigning among other reasons
for that confidence that if the Nederland had
not been signaled along the various points on
the English channel coast word to that effect
would have been wired to Antwerp, and they
would have been advised by cable of the de-
lay No such news has reached them from the
Antwerp agency, which is kept well informed of
the movements of outward bound vessels just as
the Philadelphia agency is of all vessels leaving
this port But more than this, it is believed
that the Nederland was fully two hundred and
fifty miles west of the place where the collision
occurred She sailed from Antwerp at p. m
of Saturday, and from Flushing four hours
later. Dover the first signal point, is eighty
four miles fromFlushing and Beachey head, the
scene Of the disaster fifty miles from Dover.
This entire distance of 1874 miles the Neder-
land could make by 5 a. m. Sunday morning,
and she ought to have sailed fully two hun
dred and fifty miles west up to Lizard point
by o'clock Monday morning, when the COL
ision between the Westphalia and the I'M
known vessel took place. This consideration
Of the questions of time and the vessels sail
ing capacity, together with the absence of all
advices from the Antwerp agency, convince
Peter Wright & Sons that the unfortunate ship
is not the Nederland

1t is a Comfortable Thing to Contest,
as the Government Pays the Ex-
penses.
WASHINGTON, Nov 18.-It now looks as if
the Forty eighth congress would have quite
number of election contests thrown upon it for
adjudication. Ohio will probably contribute
three-Campbell VS.. Morey, Wallace VS.. Nc
Kinley, and Neal VS.. Hart. In Virginia there
will probably be four, as Massey, Democratic
candidate at large threatens a contest with
Wise, the Readjuster; and three other Demo-
Gratis will also claim the seats which Readjust-
ers will get upon the presentation of their GER
tifcates of election, which is always taken by
the house in its organization as prlma facla
title to membership Several other cases are
expected from the south, and one from the
Indianapolis district of Indiana.
The custom which prevails in congress of
paying all the expenses of the unsuccessful
party to contest serves to increase the num-
Der of such cases. The contestant knows that
he will not be out of pocket, owing to the lib
eralty of this custom, even if he loses his case.
Therefore, having everything to gain and
nothing to lose he enters upon contest when,
perhaps, If he had to bear the burden of his
own expense if unsuccessful, he would not
consider his chance worth the venture. 1t
has not been very long since defeated con-
testant for a seat in the house was voted lib
eral allowance for attorneys fees, and the fact
was he appeared as his own attorney and
pocketed the fee 1t was said by those who
knew him that his practice at home for five
years had not yielded him as much, all told,
as that one fee he obtained for presenting .
weak case to congress.

THE SKIRMISHING FUND.
Serious Charges Made by the Com
mittee Investigating the Manage

Serious Charges Made by the Com
mittee Investigating the Manage
ment.
New YORK, Nov. 2.-The committee ap-
pointed to investigate the disbursement of the
Irish skirmishing fund has made final re-
port, in which Dewey and Breslin, who are
challenged to dispute the charges brought
against them, are accused Of Incorporating
the fund to their own dishonest projects The
fund was started in the spring of 1876,
with O'Donovan Rosa secretary, James Clancy
treasurer, and Augustine Ford trustee. In the
spring Of 1877 Clancy and Ford resigned, and
the fund passed under hew hands-O'Dono-
van Rosa, John Breslin, John Dewey, Thomas
Glare, Luby, and Thomas Francis Burke of
New York, DR.. William Carroll of Phil/del
phia, and James Reynolds, of New Xaven,
Conn The fund turned over to the new
trustees, together with money since sub
scribed, sWells the total to over 500, 000 The
xepenses charged to til fund are $50, 344. tits
charged now by the committee that Dewey and
Breslin had the securities changed from regis
tered to coupon bonds, making them green
backs for all practical purposes, and then
proceeded to spend the funds at their own
sweet will The pretext for the change
from registered to coupon bonds given
by Dewey and Breslin was that to pre-
sent the registered bonds would give the
English government knowledge of the in
tended blow against them but the transao-
ton is regarded by the committee as strong
evidence of bad faith in itself 1t is charged
by the committee, again, that the Breslin ram
project was the means of his securing $685.
800 of the fund; that John Dewey secured
$4,000 with which to purchase The Dublin
Irishman, and that $4,000 went to James
O'Kelly TO enable him to get into parliament,
"A swindle of the most despicable kind" says
the committee, because this was purpose
never contemplated by the subscribers Mr..
Breslin is charged with completely with Dewey
in converting the registered into coupon
bonds, and the committee says the other trrls-
tees cannot be acquitted of negligence in al
lowing the fund to pass into the hands of these
two men, The matter is now to be taken into
the courts, the other trustees being charged
with receiving money for their acquiescence in
the conspiracy of Breslin and Dewey.

tombs surrounding is above the average, and
some of them are opulent and artistic, while
the soil and prospect are such as Gartields

A BARON MAULED,

And an Actress in Towering Rage.
TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 22-It has just leaked
out that one night last week Baron de Chade-
nedes, of France, who has been studying agri-
culture in Canada for some time, went to the
Grand opera house to see Mile. Rhea, who is
friend of his. The baron was accompanied
by H. J. Scott, an attorney of the city.
Both gentlemen went in at the stage door and
passed to the west wing, and sent messages
to Rhea announcing their presence. Be-
fore the actress had time to make her
appearance the manager of the house, o. B.
Sheppar', approached the baron and demanded
what he wanted. The latter replied some
thing to the effect, ut was none of his bust
ness" whereupon the manager undertook to
forcibly eject him A lively scufie followed,
and the baron was getting the best of it when
the manager called for the stage carpenters,
mechanics and scene-shifters. The whole
party turned on De Chadenedes and gave him
a severe beating and black eye. When Rhea
was informed of the matter her indignation
knew no bounds She pranced around the
wings of the stage in towering rage, which
was only equaled by the poor baron, who was
grooming from his bruises in a lane outside.

The Condition OF Trade.

New YORK, Nov. ga Pennsylvania trade
observer says the stock of leather is smaller
now than year ago, and sales of boots and
shoes at the distributing center, Boston, are
larger so far than last year. Building con-
tinues in steady progress, as seemed to be
proved by the steady demand for lumber and
nails. In the paper trade stocks are not large
In cotton goods, however, $4,000 looms are
idle in this city alone Stocks in
New York have doubled in a year,
and there is not point in the great circle Of
trade, whose outer edges are in China and
South America, where there are not signs of
over production. Failures and auctions of the
manufactured article are, it is scarcely an ex-
aggeration to say, the chief signs of activity
noticed in he manufacture and sale of wooden
goods by the commercial weeklies Knit goods
seem to have gained little by the tariff
changes in their favor. At nearly all points
the signs of overproduction are so numerous
that it must be considered an even question

A Fathers Singular Revenge.

London Graphic.
Prince Bismarck's traditional three single
hairs as the sole ornament Of his massive head
have long been a favorite subject of caricature
with the Berlin comic journals, but the chan
cellor may now recognize this characteristic of
his appearance depicted in stone over several
windows in Potsdam. The owner of these
houses is a rich capitalist who has worked his
way up from simple mason, with only one
disaster in his life-the loss of his only son in
the Franco Prussian war. He regards Prince
Bismarck as the author of the war, and there
fore as his sons murderer, and so adopts
somewhat singular method Of revenging him
self upon his enemy Over the grave of his
son in the Potsdam cemetery he has erected
splendid mausoleum, surmounted by an owl
with the face of Prince Bismarck, three hairs
and all On one of his houses the Bismarck
head looks over the cornice of each window,
with the three hairs represented by small can
non. On another building, similarly adorned,
three serpents take the place of the hairs;
while third house is now being built, and the
capitalists neighbors are eager to see what
fresh hattering ornament will be bestowed on
the princes head.

VandaIs in Yellowstone Park.

San Francisco Bulletin.
The magnificent Yellowstone park is in dan
ger of being rapidly destroyed and it's natural
beauties defaced by wantonness and vandal-
ism, unless the government steps in to pro
tect it. 1t is said that the first thing an
Englishman does after registering at the Bre-
WORT house is to start for the Yellowstone park
and needlessly shoot down score of its large
game-deer, buffaloes, bears, antelope and
mountain sheep. Nor are foreigners always
the chief sinners in this respect. Many of the
most famous Yellowstone geysers have already
been ruined by people who amuse themselves
by hurlirg immense trunks of pine trees into
them in order to see the water force them high
into the air. In many cases these logs have
stuck in the water apertures, and have COM
pletely stopped the spouting. In Wyoming
the people are taking steps to put stop to
such vandalism, and the wholesale slaughter

held in 1880 for burning his house October
% to defraud the insurance company, and
for burning another dwelling November 81,

his continued adherence to Blaine. He said
that he had paid Blaine all he owed him polit-
ically and had no reason to further exert him.
self on that gentleman's account Fur
Their than this, he said that he was
indebted to the present admins
tration; that he was attached to it and
should work for it. He remarked that Mr.
Blaine was not and would not be candh ate
for the presidency, unless it should be TO peat
someone else. This remark can be construed
in several ways The denials and assertions
from Mr. Chandler will not destroy the opinion

Chandler would range himself and his in
