ROYALTY'S RECEPTION,
Visit of the Prince and Princess OF
Wales to ireland.

Dublin dispatches describe the visit of
the Prince and Princess of Wales and their
oldest son, Prince Albert Victor, to IRELAND
"A grand stlnd mad been erected at the railway
station in Dublin and when the train bearing
the royal party arrived an immense crowd
had assembled. When the prince and princess
Ialighted they were greeted with tremendous
cheering. They were escorted to the grand
tand where large representative gathering
bad assembled. When the enthusiasm of the
crowd lad been quoted the address
. of welcome by the Dublin chamber
of commerce was read. The route of the
procession was through Westland Row,
Lincoln place, Nassau street and Graf
ton street to College Green, where the
| first stop was made The green was lit
orally packed with n mass of cars car
riages and people afoot The advent OF the
|royal party was hailed with tremendous
cheering. Many persons wore crowded
| in past the escort of Lancers. The Prince of
Wales took all these irregularities good ma
turedly and treasured the displaced spec
tators by shaking hands cordially with all of
them Within his reach. Earl Spencer, the
Irish viceroy, was loudly cheered. Lord
Mayor John O'Connor, who is a strong
Nationalist, but who drove in official state
with the royal escort, was loudly Kissed by
the Nationalist. Not a sign of welcome was
visible on the City Hall, and this fact stood
out so conspicuously rs to force comments
The princess of Wales captured the popu-
lace at sight The refined beauty of her face
and the elegance of her figure were most ar
tistically set off in costume composed of
close fitting dark green velvet bodice, with
silk skirt to match, and a princesse bonnet
trimmed with beads and dark green feathers
This tribute to the Irish colors, so deity and
beautifully made was instantly recognized
by the people, and her royal highness was
everywhere greeted with applause.
After luncheon at Dublin Castle the prince
and party proceeded to the Royal Dublin So
cietys show at Balls Bridge Here the
royal party also received an enthusiastic re-
ception from great crowds
The city was brilliantly illuminated at
night. The police had some difficulty, at
one time IN preventing a collision when some
Nationalist began shouting, God save Ire
land and attempted 10 raise cheers for Par
nell. An attempt was made to burn the
Union Jack which had been stolen from the
Mansion house by students, but the attacking
party was driven off by a combined force of
students and loyalists, headed by one hun
dred policemen with drawn revolvers. The
crowd took revenge by breaking the windows
of the house from which the flag was flying.
On the following day the Prince ard Prin-
cess of Wales gave levee which was larger
than any held in Ireland since Queen Vic
torias visit in lS49, and on the succeeding
night state ball was given at Dublin castle

The charge of criminal libel against Will
liam Calvin Chase, editor Of the Bee, came
on for hearing in the Police Court to-day.
Miss Jennie Spears, colorcd public school
teacher of 1892 Sixteenth street, is the com
plainant She alleges that she was libclcd
by two articles In the Bee The defense of
Mr.. Chase is that the complainant is pub
lie official and as such she is subject to
criticism.
Mr.. +. NJ. Hewlett appeared for the de-
fendant and admitted that Mr.. Chase was
the publisher of the Bee. The Objectionable
articles were read and they were headed
Louise to Clara
Trustee Purvis was called and stated that
Miss Spear was appointed on his recommen-
dation, and he was informed that she was
good teacher. He also stated that Mr..
Chase met him and asked him If he knew
that Miss Spear was woman of bad char
acter and had had an illegitimate child
Witness never investigated that charge. All
of the information he received from other
persons about Miss Spear was copplimen-
tary to her
The subject of the trial, who is rather
good-looking young mulatto woman, stated
that she was appointed at the beginning of
the school term. She said that all of the
charges in the articles published against
her were false.
"Are you married?" inquired Mr.. Hcw-
lett.
NO" replied the witness.
"llave you ever been marriel?n was the
next question.
"No,n she replied.
"Arc you mother?" was the next query.
81 decline to answer that question:
said Miss Spear firmly.
"Did your father and mother try to force
young man to marry yOuH
"No," she replied.
In dlsposng Of the case Judge Smell said;
Suppose that when she was fourteen years
old through some scoundrcl's influence she
had made a mistake, is she for this to be
shut out from all improvement and pros
perity in her after life? | think the article
is libelous and the case will have to 20 to

Orange, Topaz, Garnet, Gold;
"For the chilly breeze is calling,
And the year is growing old.
Good-by quiet, sunny meadows,
That we never more shall see;
Good-by, winding brooks Of silver,
Snowy lambs aud dead old tree
Dear old loving mothcr-tree.'
From the branches down they lluttcrGd,
Like rainbow scattered wide;
Aud the old tree looked so lonely,
That was once the woodlands pride.
But the wind came wildly piping,
And they danced away with glee.

Soon forgot the poor old tree
Poor old loving mothertree.
But when skies Of drcar November
Frowned upon their wild delight,
All the little leaves grew lonely,
And they wandered back one night;
And they nestled in hollow
At the foot OF the old tree,
Signing: "All the long white winter
