Since then he has resigned his seat 10 the Com
mons. and has declared his intention to with
draw from politics.
These are only the outward manifestations Of
volcano which is said to be boiling under Mr..
Parnell's feet, and which threatens to burst at
any moment The report from inside sources is
that the relations between Mr.. Parnell and Mrs
OShea have not been confined to simple friend
ship, but that he has been more than either a
mere guest or ledger to the lady
The lever by which Captain O'Shea
is said to have moved the Irish
leader to do his bidding was the knowledge of
the intimacy existing between his wife and Mr..
Parnell. 1t is stated by those who are familiar
with current political talk and events that the
relations of Mr.. Parnell and Mrs. O'Shea have
been maintained with the knowledge and con-
nivance of the husband, but that the break
has come and an explosion Is impending.
There is report of divorce proceedings on
the part Of Captain O'Shea. which will cause a
sensation, owing to the position of the correspond
emit, equal If not greater than that caused by the
Dilke-Crawford scandal. Every effort is being
made to smother all such rumors, and they are
denied by the friends of Mr.. Parnell. What the
effect of such q disclosure on Mr.. Parnelrs ca
reer, his party, and the cause of home rule would
be, are pure conjectures.

Marriage by Examination.
Texas Siftings.


The emperor of China, who is bachelor, view
ing with ill-diseuised jealousy the press atten-
proposes to get married himself. But the hand
of the descendant of tie son is open to competi-
ton. He gives the girls chance. Manageable
young ladies from all parts of the celestial king
dom are invited to Pekin, though reporters will
not be invited to peek in and see them. His
Majesty will visit them and select a bride at his
leisure. Chinese girls are all in futter and
dress makers and miliners are working night
and day to get them in shape. Yet it is melan
choly to think of the multitude of rejected ones
who must return home disappointed
1t is too late for such move now, but it would
have added greatly to the interest of presi-
Dental wedding could the hand of President
Cleveland have been opened to competition Aso

way, why didn't stop longer. told him frankly
the speeches were dull, and then besought
him to let me know some day when a really elo-
quent lawyer was going to make fine speech
He threw back his head and began an uproari-
GUS laugh, recollected that sound travels, looked
scared, clapped his hand to his mouth, and. when
duly composed, answered. "Bless your soul, man.
they don't make fine speeches in there-they
expound the law" And humbly admit that for
the first time in my life became aware that in
the Supreme Court of the United States the
Judiciary listen to the law-not eloquence or

went, riding beside him at full speed, when at
