nation forbidding the nationalist demon.
stration announced to be held in Tyrone
to protest against the visit of the Prince
anal Princess of Wales to that town. There

by serious rioting.
The reception given to the Prince ofWales
at Omagh, to-day, was a very brilliant af-
fair. The Nationalist had prepared to
make counter demonstration, and were ar.
rayed in procession form, but the police
charged upon them before they had time to
carry out their intention, captured their
black flag and their drum, and dispersed
them completely.

Fipht Between COWBOYS and Settlers

OMAHA, Neb., April 27.--It is reported
here that on last Thursday, near Trenton,
in the western part of Nebraska, fight oc-
Cured between cowboys and settlers, result.
ing in the death of four settlers, three Of
whom were named Joe Clyne, l.. D. Trox-
ell, and Mr.. Dunbar. There has been i'll
feeling between cowboys and settlers owing
to the fact that settlers have dared to take
up homesteads on cattle ranches. On Thurs.
day difficulty arose between settler and
cowboy, which resulted in the former dis.
charging his rifle at the latter, but without
effect. The cowboy then, with some com.
pauions, returned, and shot to death the
four farmers.

The last invasion of Afghanstan cost tie
English 100000, 900, and there is no telling

ably buy every inch of Afghan territory and

Ameer himself, for ne.tenth Of that amount.
The Egyptian business has cost Great Br-
tain, in rongh figures, another $l0O,0O0.000,

TO The editor of the Alexandria Gazette:

In your issue of the 25Lh your local editor
has made statement the same or sim
liar statement was made last year, which
might convey false impression, and, to my
knowledge, did do SO last year. In noticing
the University Local Examination, held re-
Gently at Sc. Johns Academy, it is stated
"those candidates who shall be found to
have answered at least Is per cent. on each
of the three or more subjects, will be award
ed University certificates, and, if Virginia
boys, will be entitled to attend free the
schools of the University in which they
have passed." The last part Of the above
might convey the impression that u Vir
ginia boy must stand, and pass these Local
Examinations in order to be able to attend
the academic schools at the University Of
Virginia without paying tuition fees. Such
is not the fact, and will quote from Uni
versity catalogue (recently received to
show that it is not the fact "By act of the
General Assembly of Virginia, approved
March 18th, 1884 the University shall give
instructions to all white students of the
Slate of Virginia, over the age Of sixteen
years without charge for tuition in the
academic department provided, that no
person shall be admitted as student, tree
of charge for tuition fees, under the provi-
sions of this act, unless the Faculty shall
he satisfied by actual examination of the
applicant, or by certificate from some COL
lege or preparatory school, that he has
made such proficiency in the branch of
study (which he proposes to pursue as will
enable him to avail himself ofthe advantages
afforded by the University" 1t will be
seen from this that the certificate from any
college or preparatory school will admit
a student who wishes to enter the academic
department at the University free of charge
for tuition fees. TEACHER
