The London pynamiters.

LONDON, February 2.--The examination
of James G. Cunningham, charged with
completely in causing the recent explo-
sion at the tower of London, began in
Bow street police court this morning
Pollard, solicitor, in opening the case
for the Crown, said government in
tended to prove that the prisoner was
an active agent in conspiracy, which
eliminated in the outrage at the tower.
The solicitor related the facts in regard
to the prisoners movements from the
time of his arrival in Liverpool from
America up to the date of his arrest at
the tower few minutes after the ex-
plosion occurred; his travelling under
the assumed names of Gilbert and
Dalton. Pollard dwelt particularly OH
the disappearance of peculiar box
from the prisoners lodgings in Scarboro
street, Immediately after Cunningham s
arrest. Pollard further said witnesses
would be produced to prove that Gun
ningham had for several days previous
to the explosion been seen lettering i'll
and around the tower of London.

The Poor People.

CHICAGO, February 1.-&bout 400
persons were present in West Twelfth
street this afternoon, to listen to joint
discussion between the Socialists and
the Trades Assembly, the latter having
recently passed resolutions denouncing
Socialism in behalf of the wage workers
of the city, A number of persons
spoke on each side of the question. On
behalf of the Trades Assembly it was
claimed that the condition of the labor
ing classes in this country had been
steadily improving instead of growing
worse, that they were better housed,
better clothed and better fed, in fact,
that in every way they were better off
than ever before in the history of the
world On behalf of the Socialists, it
was claimed that the work
ingmen were still suffering great
wrongs; that statistics showed that for
every dollar that a worker received,
the capitalists. received eight that,
though workmen nowadays BACKED
their boots, ether werkmen were starv-
ing, a condition of affairs which had
only come aSout recently; that tramps
were unknown prior to 1873; that mil
lionaires had increased too rapidly with
IN the past hundred years and that
the only remedy was to force redistri-
button.

Nothing in 1t.

PANAMA, JaRuary 24-The Star and
Herald says relative to the report printed
abroad that the French republic was
endeavoring to obtain. predeminence on
the Isthmus, and pursuance to this idea,
canal workmen had been divided into
divisions in such a manner that a corps
d'armie 25,00o strong can be massed at
any moment, the untruthfulness of
this statement IS apparent to every resi-
dent, although the origin may not be
equally so. The truth issimply that in
order to facilitate work, the line of the
canal has been cut up into engineer
divisions, which is again subdivided
into sections.

the explosion, The men arrested on sus-

tant places, unless their passengers pur-
chase tickets in like manner.

Ed GRAPHIC: A peculiar land con-
troversy is in progress here. l will try
and give the facts as | have heard
| them.
About 80 years ago, Mr.. Gatewood
entered with land warrants bout 50
acres of land, at the land Office in
Milan, the records Of the office al
Milan showing the entry had been
made. The warrants were forwarded
to the General Land Office at Washing.
ton, but it is claimed that the warrants
were stolen by robbers on Yellow Greek
in Sullivan Co. Mo. Hence the entry
was not completed. Gatewood died
believing,the land his. The Gatewood
heirs divided the lands as they deemed
equitable. Said heirs haze lived on
the lands in question many years, and
raised large families. A short time
since, the purchase as above stated,
was declared void and the land declared
to belong to the Public Dominion and
subject TO Homestead entry. Two
brothers named George declared their
intentions to Homestead the portion
claimed and owned by Samuel Gates
Armed with certificate to homestead
Mr.. Gates land or land that he sup
posed to be his, the George brothers
caused lumber to be hauled to portion
of uninclosed land of the Gates tract.
and proceeded to erect house. The
square OF the house was raised and
partially enclosed the 1st. day. The
George brothers and their workmen
expected to return in the morning and
finish or push the building to COM
pletion.l But on returning in the
morning they found the build
ing had been carefully taken
down and removed from the disputed
lana about one fourth of a mile. The
brothers procured team loaded the
house or portion of it on the wagon
and started for the site they had
selected, with the intention of restoring
the house to its proper position. As
soon as the team and Messrs. Georges
workmen arrived at the line OF the
disputed land, Mr.. Samuel Gates with
a double bareled shot gun in his hands
called a halt. which was instantly
obeyed. We suppose the question as
to titles will go into our courts for
adjustment. A. Novice.

Birth Day Dinner.

On Friday October End the friends
and neighbors of Mr.. a. NJ. Gllmour,
living near Willard, gave him very
pleasant surprise in the way of a birth.
day dinner on the occasion of his sew
entieth birth day. For several days
prior it had been raining continually
and even Friday morning wore very
gloomy appearance in consequence OF
which the mum Der was not as large as
would otherwise have been.
The first inilmation Mr.. G. had OF
the affair was when they began to
Assem-. Bile, with baskets well filled, and
Notwithstanding the gloomy appear
ance Of the morning the day proved
to be lovely one and the time very
enjoyably spent.
The average ages of eight of the
oldest men present was seventy two
years.
They enjoyed themselves bv discus.
ing the topics of the day, renewing old
memories etc. The young people spent
the tune in various ways until about
oae o'clock p. M, when tn, program
was changed by the announcement Of
dinner and the party was seated
around the table loaded with beautiful
and delicious cakes, and everything
else necessary to constitute a magnif-
cent dinner. 1t is not necessary to make
the very common remark that justice
was done to this occasion. Suffice it to
say that IN your correspondents judge
ment the ladies on this occasion could
scarcely he excelled as cooks. Later in
the afternoon they listened to very
pleasant address by MIR. David Hollc-
way; then few timely remarks by
Mr.. D. B. Cook, song by the young
ladies and gentlemen; the presenta.
ton o. a very appropriate present by
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Denniston and a
short responce by Mr.. Gilmore.
