Here is a romance of one of the ''Drett,y Treasury girls" as told by Treasury De- Dartment watchman. You see that modest looking lady walking slowly down t! cor rdor? Several years ago she had husband who was a clerk in ThIs department and esteemed by all his associates. One day he failed to report for duty. Ills wife said that he was seriously ill, and earnestly requested that she be allowed |. fill Che place while he remained incApacitated. The permission was saccorded her. Soon after she got the place she proceeded to fix herself solid The husband recovered, but she still held his position. She finally secured perma- nent appointment to the place. and at ono 0 instituted proceedings for divorce. The divorce was granted on the charge of non support. Poor devil, she had robbed him of everything, and he was not capable of sup porting himself. You see, she is well dressed. Her husband is walking on his uppers, and his outer covering is nothing but a linen duster - Washington Corre- spondence to the Pittsburg Leader.

 Not free by long shot. Yes, shot is the best word to express the diverg- ance Ireland is not free. The Queen, bless her oleaginousness, practically says: "Now look here, Ireland, you are crowding the mOurners. You are getting the best of me in the eonsti- tutional line of warfare, so if you don't shut hup will punch your cad" It is quite comic to observe the attitude of the English mind. They lave been crying for years, "You Irish stick to constitutional means, stick to law and order, then we will respect you" But the Irish are now getting the best of it by strictly orderly means, and Eng land did not calculate on that, so he cries out "Oh, hang it all, l can't stand this, you know; so if you don't stop I'll punch your head. I'm big ger than you are and can do it."

enthusiasm by the people. Afterwards the
queen and Princess Beatrice went Tor a drive

where surrounded by throngs of people, who
testified their regard for the queen by cheering,
&c. Among the crowd which assembled along
Constitution Hill road man wearing
shabby clothes and a SLOUGH hat. When the
royal carriage reached point opposite him he
threw something into it. The man was quickly
taken into custody by the police. lie offered
no resistance. When the queen noticed the
mans approach she instinctively shrank back,
evidently somewhat startled.
II was a paper which the prisoner threw into
the queens carriage and is understood TO have
contained nothing more than petition for
redress for q personal grievance under which
the offender believes he is unjustly suffering.
A medical examination shows that the man is
deranged.

WHAT WOULD FOLLOW THE FAILURE OF GLAD
STONES PROPOSED IRISH LEGISLATIoN.
DUBLIN, March 25.-United Ireland the Par
nellite organ, publishes an editorial speculation
based on supposition of the failure of Mr.
Gladstone to carry his Irish measure through
parliament 1t says that if such a failure
should possibly occur, it would not only be a
parliamentary scandal, but would be followed
by most horrible suppressed civil war;" "The
liberal party" the paper continues, would be
split. One portion would stand watching in
helpless shame the terrorization of Ireland; the
other portion would be dragged at the chariot
wheels OF q Brummagem Cromwell"
