IRELAND FOR THE IRISH.

nhAAND EOGA 2AAH AAAASHhs ParneIl,s UItimatum to the British Parliament.
 LONDON, Aug 27-Mr. Parnel1's speeches at the banquet and conference in Dublin on Tuesday have made profound impression, not so much because they contained new doc- Urine as because they made a definite, un- compromising and final statement of his views. He has now stated exactly what he wants and what he intends to do in order to get it. This, summarized, is the prevention of British legislation until Ireland gets '1eg- islative independence. This phrase has now superseded 'shome rule" Then he de- mands a settlement of the land question ac- cording to the National League programme and restoration of prosperity to the towns by high, and especially anti-English, pro- lection. "lt is not now the question:" said he, "whether the Irish people will de- eide their own destinies and their own future, but it is question with our English masters T am afraid we cannot call them masters any longer-it is question with them how far off the day they consider 50 evil shall be deferred. His last words, which were re- ceived with the greatest enthusiasm, were: ''I feel assured that the Irish party will be assembled in such strength and under such conditions in Ireland and in Westminster as will insure that it shall be the last Irish party in England and the first in the restored Irish Parliament" It is certain that this wish is father to the thought here, but MT. ParnelPs confident and triumphant tone is causing this final Irish problem to be faced with great interest and hardly less anxiety. Every campaign speech since Monday has dealt largely with this question. The Standard (Tory) says that ors that the moonlighters have won. The Daily Telegraph speaks of these per sons calmly plotting the disruption of the British empire. The Daily News NiberaD has not yet received the official tip, and therefore only talks chaff. The leading Irish papers say MT. Parnell's words will send 8 thrill of supreme joy through the heart of Ireland.
 The resolutions adopted at the conference pledge the whole party in the next Parlia- ment to vote as a unit, and require candi- dates to give written promise to resign if they fail so to vote. The next struggle, therefore, will be final ono.

The Newport Excurstep.

The excursion to Newport on the steamer Elm City Wednesday, September 3, bids fair to be one of the most enjoyable of the present season. The tickets are limited and those who are so fortunate as to secure them will have no occasion to regret the small investment they will be called upon to make. Every effort will be made by the management to make the trip one of real pleasure to the excur- sionists, and everyone knows that the sail to Newport is delightful one. There are but few tickets remaining and those intend ing to go should apply without delay at Ryder's confectionery store.

LARRABEE FOR GOVERNOR.

The Choice of the Iowa Republicans.
 DEs MONIES, Aug. 27.-In the Republican convention to-day Senator Sutton as perma- nent chairman delivered his address, follow ing in the line of the principal speakers of yesterday, dealing entirely with past issues and emphatically with war issues. A mo- tion was made to proceed to ballot for gov ernor without speeches. Major Ander- son, of Fremont, stoutly opposed this as an institution of the gag rule which was out of place in Republican convention. He asserted that the party in Iowa had grown weaker in proportion as it came under the influence ot boss rule. It is said that the party is in the hands of regency controlled by the corpor- ations. The matter was compromised by limiting nominating speeches to five minutes on the first ballot and Hull for lieutenant governor,

A PREACHER ON A SPR FEE. The Double of Edwin Booth As- tonishes the Natives At Cincin.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 27.-An afternoon paper contains 8 very sensational story to- day that revives the gossip about the remark able resemblance of Rev. J. G. Armstrong, of Atlanta, to Wilkes Booth, the assassin of President Lincoln. The reverend gentleman, who is pastor of St. Philips Episcopal church at Atlanta, has been in this city for some weeks and according to the printed story has been conducting himself while here very differently from what would be expected of a minister of the gospel. The account is in substance as follows: Wednesday morning a small crowd gathered in front of Hunts Hotel where MT. Armstrong was standing. They were attracted by his strange appear ance and many remarks were passed upon his resemblance to the assassin of 1865. Jumping into a hack he was driven to a number of houses of ill-fame on Longworth street where he spent the day in drinking and boisterous conduct with the inmates. A reporter of the paper printing the story followed him during this tour and the ac count is not lacking in particulars and data. He kissed the girls, drank beer, and in quired by name for particular females. The story goes on to say that the minister has been fully identified by ex-members of his conprepation now living in tn is city,

 new faces were seen vending their way to
 and from the different refreshing fountains

 temperance were rendered in charming
 manner. At about half-past o'clock Presi dent Luddington stepped to the front of the platform and in an eloquent and impressive tone of voice asked the attention of all pres
 ent while Dr. w. A. Welch, one of the trus- tees of the society, presented to the associa- tion life-like portrait of the late c. D. Al bee.

A Startling Theory In Regard To His
 Suicide.

A Startling Theory In Regard TO HIS
 Suicide.
 BIRMINGHAM, Mass, Aug. 27.-The funer- al of Coleman s. Adams, late treasurer of the Birmingham bank, who resigned by re- quest and then cut his throat in the bank, occurred this afternoon. SIX bank officers acted as pallbearers. There is deep feeling among many people here that Adams was the victim of a conspiracy. He gained many enemies some time ago by successfully oppos- ing the establishment of 8 branch bank of fee and there has been manifested g dispo- sition to punish him. Many persist in be- lieving that though his bookkeeping was un- scientific, his accounts will be found straight and that being too proud to submit to the ridicule of his enemies and his unhappy do- nestle life he concluded to end his troubles. A few years ago he married his third wife. Last spring she went to Europe and never returned to him, but is at present living in Boston. MT. Adams was very fond of his first wife and when she died he persisted in having her buried under his window. He was utterly unable to sleep and refused all opiates until it was finally necessary by force to make him do as the physician advised and to re- move his wife's remains to the cemetery.

It has become so common to begin an arti- cle in elegant, interesting style,
 Then run it into some advertisement, that we avoid all such,
 And simply call attention to the merits of Hop Bitters in as plain, honest terms as pos sfbIe,
 To induce people To give them one trial, which so proves else.
 The remedy is so favorably noticed in all the pa- pers Religious and secular, Is Having large sale and is supplanting all other medicines.

 GENEVA, N. Y., Aug. 27.-The weather continued cold to-day, fact which, howev- CT, did not prevent 8 very large gathering of people to witness the rowing matches. A light breeze from the northeast sprang up in the afternoon ruffing the water of the lake. When the final heat was called the oarsmen took their positions as follows: Mckay, Hanlan, Hamm and Hosmer. Lee, who had entered the race, failed to put in an appear ance and when the referee called for the fifth man Mckay, who is something of wit, shouted, ''He's under the lee!" Hosmer caught first water, but after rowing about mile was obliged to drop out of the race. Han Ian turned the stake boat first, followed by Mckay and Hamm in the order named These positions were not changed. Hanlan finished in 21:3s11s, Mckay in 21:391s, Hamm in e1:4o. The race was for purse of s575 divided as follows: $35O to first, $150 to second and S75 to third. The second race was called at 5:3O.

During the races Courtney was very attentive observer of the oarsmen. He and Conley desire to ar range double scull race with Hanlan and any man he may select Han1an refuses to make such match as he has races enough on his hands.
