of large number of buildings in Ma

Of 1885 is not quite so hattering as it
might be, or as other seasons have
been. there will be more than the usual
number decorated outside and inside
and additions built, and large and ex,
tensive improvements made ,,'r,,tht on those
which have been in the course OF con-

at hand, and better still a.coming, is

NOT so PEACEFUL AS REPORTED.
A Series of Agrarian Outrages Credited
to Irreconcilables of the National
Party-Rochefort's Threats The
Dixie Scandal Settled.

LONDON, Aug Especial dispatches
received from Ireland during the past two
days tend to contradict the rose-colored
view of Lord Carnarvon's tour of the coun-
try which is furnished by the general
press dispatches The latter convey the
idea that the new viceroyship is highly
successful and almost a triumphal prog
ress that he is greeted everywhere by
multitudes of people who, if not very en-
thusiastic, are at least orderly and respect
full, and that the solid citizens of each
town present him with loyal addresses, to
all of which he makes complimentary and
cOnciliatory replies. 1t is true that the
earl and countess have thus far made their
journey without mOlestltiOn, despite the
absence of police escort, such us Earl
Spencer always had whenever he stirred
abroad. But it is also true that there has
been a succession of more or less serious
agrarian outrages, coinciding almost eX-
actly III time and place with the VicerOy'S
itinerary The experts at Dublin castle
do not believe that these condolences are
accidental. They have theory that these
outrages are ordered by some central
body, and timed so that they will be re-
ported alongside of the accounts of
Lord Carnarvon's progress. They are, the
experts believe, planned by the irrecon-
cilables of the national party for the pur
pose of destroying the Niceroy's growing
popularity by compelling him to resort to
stern measures of repression. 1t Is diff
cult to see what is be to gained, either
now or hereafter, by such suicidal tactics !;
but the castle officials explain them by
saying that, without agitation, fair or
foul, the lucrative occupation of many an
Irish demagogue. would be gone. They
say also that there are many nationalists

PROBABLY WAS MURDERED.
sudden Disappearance of Lieut.. Remey of
the United States NAVY

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S-A Washington
despatch says: The sudden disappear
ance of Lieut. l.. 7. Remey, United States
navy, continues to be the topic in naval
circles. Information was received here
this morning that he was probably foully
dealt with. At Norfolk on the night of
his disappearance he entertained ladies of
the Leland Opera company and was after
wards seen treating some men in restall-
rants and displaying large roll of money.
1t is believed he was murdered in one of the
dives in that city and the body concealed
under ground. \ case was cited to the
authorities where three decomposed bodies
were found under dive by Norfolk po-
lice. One of the bodies was that of a
farmer and the other two were United
States marines. A general investigation
of under ground dives will be suggested

The venerable Moses f. Cheney, now %

SEES himself in the Woodstock Standard as
follows on the subject of horses;
From forty to eighty years ago the Nor
gan morse was very popular in Vermont,
as The Horse of All Work" Since then
many of the leading hOrsemen of the
State have preferred taller and looser
made animals; and recently some very
enterprising men have returned to the
Morgan and are breeding, not exactly the
old fashioned favorte, though a lineal de
seendant, but II sporting Morgan These
are beautiful horses, and Vermont is fast
increasing its number of them, many of
which, if sold young enough may prove
remunerative. But we have men, and
are likely to have them, who have great
faith in the ancient Morgan with his
broad head and full eyes broad loin and
strong limbs, who. If his speed be not
equal to that of some others, can continue
it long enough to make it even and more
too.
A majority of our sturdy farmers hest
tate to pay the high prices required for
trstting stallion services, and will patro-
niZe such us accommodate the purse
hence we may reasonably hope for the
continuance of the old style Norgans for
a long time TO come.

NOT MAXWE L BUT BROOKS
REVELATION IN THE TRUNK MYSTERY
A Letter is Received from Brooks's
Father The Prisoner Declares His In
nocence and Rogue. is the Letter
what His Defence Will be.

ST LOUIS, Aug. 1S-A letter is publish
ed here to-day, dated Sunny Bank, Hyde,
Cheshire, England. July 13, 1885, and
signed samuel y Brooks" in which the
writer says that his son, H. NJ. Brooks,
left home last January on II business trip
to Ireland and that no word had been re
ceived from him since. 1t has been learn
ed, however, that he had the curate of an
adjoining parish for u companion and
that they had INDUCED in various eXtrav-
agances, and that Brooks's name had got
mixed up with the St Louis trunk TRACE
dy and had also got mixed with that of
DIR. Maxwell. The letter shows great dis
tress on the part of the writer, who makes
an urgent appeal for information in re
gard to the person concerned in the
murder Part of this letter was
shown to Maxwell and he recognized the
signature as that of his father and desired
possession of the letter. He said he would
write to his father and tell him that he
(MaXwelD was innocent of the murder of
Preller and that he had perfectly good de
Tense. In the course of the conversation
Maxwell, or as he is now pretty definitely
identified as Brooks" said that Preller
was troubled with insomnia and that he
had prescribed chlorofOrm for him on sew
eral occasions, and with benefit. Preller,
however, had heart disease. He said and
intimated that he had either taken or was
given an overdose on this occasion with
the fatal result. This will be Brookss de-
fence when his case comes to trial.
A late st. Louis despatch says Maxwell
published II card this afternoon denying
that he has given any reporters any out
line or idea of his defence as published
here this morning and referred to in IL
previous despatch. He Furthermore de
MES having acknowledged that his name
is Brooks, and says no matter what is
published he will not talk abou, his case or
give any one any idea what his defence
will be- The letter previously referred to
and signed Samuel NJ. Brooks Is genuine,
however 1t was received here by John
ID. Wheel a high officer in Masonic order.
Mr.. Wheel has replied to it and is daily
expecting another letter from the same
person. Maxwell was placed in the
sheriff. custody to-day and put in Jail.
