 MANSFIELD, O., Dec. 24.-The executive committee of the Mansfield association for the Relief of the Poor, at the suggestion of Mr. M. D. Harter, who guaranteed $1O0 net profit, invited Senator Sherman, who is 8 resident of Mansfield, and Professor Sumner to debate the tariff question in Mansfield some night during the holidays, the proceeds to be devoted to the relief of the poor of Mansfield during the winter. Professor Sumner has telegraphed that although very inconvenient, he will debate with Senator Sherman at Mansfield or other place, in the discretion of the committee, on January 1, 4, or 5. A later despatch from Senator Shel- man declines the invitation on the ground of public interest in the question and his own want of time.

The vote was 274 in favor of the grant to 270 for the reduction to 19,0O0,OOO francs recom- mended by the Tonquin committee. The majority in favor of the government is so small as to lead to rumors that the Brisson ministry will deem it equivalent to a vote of want of confidence and will resign.

 Sheeban COnfesses a Triple Murder.
 DUBLIN, Dec. 24.-Wm. Sheehan, who was
 convicted on the 18th instant of having mur-
 dered his mother, his brother Thomas and
 his sister Mary at Castletownroche, near
 Cork, in October, 1877, has made full con-
 fession of his crime. He exculpates his
 brother-in-law, David Browne, who is under
 arrest, from any participation in the triple
 murder. Sheehan says he was led to commit
 the murders by the Der istency of his mother in demanding e300 dowry from Farmer Browne before she would consent to her son (the prisoner) marrying Miss Browne. Farln- CT Browne was willing to give his daughter dowry of 9170, but Mrs. Sheehan refused the offer. William then murdered his mother, brother and sister and threw their bodies in to an old well. He told the people that he had given his mother e300 out of his mar riage portion and that the three missing ones had gone away to seek another place of resi- dence. In a short time William married Miss Browne. He took possession of the farm and remained there about two years, when he was evicted for non- payment of rent. He then left for Australia After his departure the three bodies were discovered and he was arrested and brought back to Ire land for trial

Stirred Up Esy the DictatorIal Atti-
 tude of the Natienalists.
 LONDON, Dec. A.-The representative has cabled to night to the Boston Globe as fol- lows:
 The truculent manifesto issued by Presi- dent Egan of the Irish National league of America which I cabled you last night was likely to cause ill-feeling is followed to-day by an editorial in the London Times to the effect that perhaps the best thing to do with Ireland would be to place the country under martial law and expel all the national ists from the British Parliament. Startling as this proposition seems there is not a shadow of doubt that the irritation of the English people at the apparently dictatorial attitude assumed by the Irish party is al most sufficient to support such bold plan of action and few persons familiar with the feeling in England allow themselves to suppose that the time has come when any party, Liberal or Conservative, can maintain supremacy if it's majority depends on Irish votes. An Englishman is an Eng ne1ish1nan first and party man second, when Ireland is concerned at least, and Mr. Gladstone will hardly be able to prevent his Whig friends from joining his Conservative opponents in resentment at the idea of lowing to Parnell's demands

1 Commodore Kittson's Son The Subject of An Unpleasant Scandal
 NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Details of sensa- | tional nature were related to-day in the 1 Supreme court before Judge Donohue in the
 matter of the claim of a woman known as Mary King and also as Minnie Clarke for ali l lnony and divorce from H. l.. Kittson 8 young son of the wealthy stock raiser Com l modore Kittson. The woman, who is said l to be the proprietress of disreputable house
 at 51s Sixth avenue, presented affdavits that 1 Kittson married her April 25th, but aban- doned her soon afterward. She asserts that Kittson is wealthy and able to support her. Young Kittson in his affidavits in reply swears that he was under age in July; that ! he has no property, but is supported by his father, with whom he lives at the Windsor Hotel; that he knows nothing of the alleged marriage except that he went to the woman's
 house on April 24th, became intoxicated
 lost consciousness and was afterward told by
 her that he had married her in the house, a
 clergyman having been called in for that purpose; that he repudiated the woman's claim and was not in his right senses or ca pablo of contracting a marriage at the time referred to. Mary A. Kittson, the defend
 
 or Clarke called twice at her rooms in the
 Windsor while intoxicated and claimed that young Kittson was her husband and that she would make him live with her. Upon be- ing ordered out the woman threatened to kill both Mrs. Kittson and her son. Com modore Kittson testified that his son has no property except that which he chooses to give him and is dependent on him for SUD- port. Judge Donohue reserved his decision.

NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH.
The Strange and Terrible Freaks
of Lightning.

Yesterday evening about 6 O'clock,
the inhabitants of this city experienced
one of the most terrific thunderstorms,
accompanied by wind and rain, that
ever visited this vicinity. The course
of the Storm was-when at its height
from southwest to northeast. The
forked lightning was powerful, and one
or two flashes was appalling. The
thunder was so loud as TO almost strike
people deaf for time-ln fact. it struck
terror to the hearts of ali.
In one 'wo instances the freaks of
the lig1 1g came nearly resulting
fatally. Mrs. Hoist and her daughter,
the latter about fifteen years of age,
were sitting in the kitchen of Their
residence, in the southeast part of town;
fash of lightning struck the south
side of the house, splintered the wea-
boarding, passed through the
wall, tearing off considerable plaster
from the inside. entered the
kitchen, where the two were
sitting; tie electricity struck The young
lady. passing over most of The surface
OF her body, knocking her almost in
sensible, and blistering her severely on
several parts of her body. Mrs. Hoist
was also benumbed and almost pros
trated. The electric current then tore
strip from the clock shelf, Travelled
over the face of a larh picture and
breaking pieces from the frame, then
made its exit, leaving he inmates of the
house more dead than alive. Mrs. Hoist
has about recovered; the young lady Is
gradually recovering from the shock
and injuries received from her terrible
visitor.
The election passed off quietly on
Monday last. There was no opposition
ticket. and 276 votes were cast for the
Peoples nominees, which is little
over half the number of registered
voters of this precinct. J. B.
