Three Rounds.
PHILADELPHIA, November 2.-Jack

Coy, of Boston, fought three vicious rounds
here last night with small gloves. Pete

the battle from the. start, furnishing his
adversary severely about the face and
head. In the third rounds Mccoy sent in
a swinging right hand blow on Langdon' S
neck, flooring him like an OK. Before
falling Langdon staggered for moment,
dropped his hands and then went down
like falling log. He remained uncon-

is Reached.

WASHINGTON, November 27.-EX-Sena-
tor Joseph T.. Mcdonald, of Indiana, is
one of the counsel for the defense of the
Bell Telephone patent in the suit brought
by the Government to break down the
patent. In conversation with y reporter
he made the interesting declaration that,
however, the proceedings might he eXpedi-
ted, and whatever the courts might do. 4
final judgment by thcSupreme Court on the
matter could not he reached in less than
seven years from the present. while the pat
ent will expire in six years, ann no judg-
ment, whether for or against the patent,
conld be made retroactive. SO that, even
ifBell's patent is entirely involved, the

Company from continuing to pocket the
profits Of the monopoly and absolutely
powerlcSs to recover penny of that profit

VICTORY FOR THE IRISH.

Mr.. Timothy Harrington, NJ. F., Secre-
tary Ofthc Irish National League, in an
interesting interview to-day on the sub
icct of Mr. Dillon's arrest, said: 81 re-
gard the prosecution OF Mr. Dillon as Il
great victory for the Democratic party.
BY its action the Government admits the
complete failure OF of their rnlc in Ire
land under the ordinary laws, and have
taken the first step i'll the series
of press prosecutions, imprlson-
mcnt OF Irish leaders, prohibitions
of meetings, etc, which will doubtless
follow. do not doubt that the Govern
mcnt will try TO twist the ordinary law to
meet the difficulty which attend Tory rule
to Ireland and then apply Ia Parliament
for fresh measures Of coercion, by which
time they will have deprived themselves of
the only cOgent argument against auto
nomy, namely, that Ireland is able to be
ruled without exceptional law. ! think
the present ttate of the country justified
this policy from their paint of view, and
the Government have tried la bring the
landlords to reason by private argument;
but the raCk-renters and needy landlords
are not likely to give way 10 obligc the
Government.
'THE PLAN SUGGESTED Fly UNITED IRE
was called forth by the failure of Mr..
Parnell's Stay of Eviction bill and the
adoption is already proving to he q very
formidable difficulty IN the way OF the
Government. The summons issued against
Mr.. Dillon was aimed rather at tnhcd
IrcldRdS plan than ut the speeches Of Mr..
Dillon, but | do not believe that his per
sccution will deter Mr.. Dillon from carry
ing out that plan The intention Of the
Government is without doubt to imprisOn
Mr.. Dillon, but ] am ~ yet unable To say
how he will meet his prosecutors. |
dcprecate the plan hitherto followed by the
Government of refusing hail, which gives
them convenient method OF
Kidding themselves Of active opponents.
1t is probable that will DE one of the first
men proceeded against, and if am arrest
ed | shall give bail and Immediately make
the same speech or take the same action
which the charge against me is based
upon 1t would render the Government
powerless; because they are obliged to
prove prisoner guilty of some oficnsc be-
fore cXacting recogniZanccs and prOsecu-
ton under the existing law would he n
complete failure. If Mr.. Dillon goes to
prison the Government is likely Ia have a
uncomfortable time Of it, rs they couldn't
possibly have seized any one who will win
greater sympathy in Great Britian and
Ireland.

have leased the Nallette block in this vii
lage and will open it for business about
November |. 1t is understood that the
store at Marshfeld is to be closed up
and that the one there will come here to
manage this store. What they will deal
in appears not to be known as yet by the
gentlemen themselves. Doubtless they
wish to become better acquainted with
the needs of the region before deciding.
Harry, son of Mr.. j. w. Pitts, gave
his friends great fright, Monday night.
He had not come home at late hour in
the evening, and none of his playuates
had seen him for several hours. His
shoes and stockings were found on the
bank of the creek near the house, giving
ground for the supposition that he had
been wading in the stream and had fall
len in and drowned. just as prepare
tons were making to drag the creek, he
was discovered. He had been wadinc /:
then he heard some one shooting frogs
at the railroad bridge; when he got
there he thought he would go and see
the New York express come in; when it
arrived he rode up to the Addison House
on the coach, and he was still near there
playing when his anxious friends came
upon him.
The usual services were held at the Y.
NJ. c. y. rooms last Sunday afternoon.
The address, given by Rev. j. j. Noe, was
one of special importance. The lesson
was taken from the seventeenth chapter
of st. John. The attendance was better
than could have been expected with
weather so unfavorable. The young
evening and was led by Ransom Benedict.
Next Sunday afternoon the services at
the hall will be conducted by the secre-
tary. Mr.. Parsons intends to take a ten
days vacation; he will leave next
Wednesday, going first to Barre to at
tend the Y. NJ. C.. a. convention. He will
spend the remaining time in Berlin and
Montpelier All who desire to join the
class in penmanship are requested to
hand in their names to the secretary. The
class will begin its course in about two
weeks There will also be class in book
keeping if sufficiently large number of
persons can be obtained to make it an
object. Any person who would like to Join
this class will please hand his name to the
secretary at once.

AFFAIRS Al BELpEN'S FALLS.

Active operations are in progress at
Belden's Falls with view to repairing
as soon as possible the damages resulting
from the late fire. The wheel-house has
been rebuilt. together with the trestle-
work that supports the shaft running
from the whecl-hOuse to the marble mill
of +. W. Smith Il Co. The shafting,
which was twisted badly by the intense
heat, has been sent away to be straight
ened. 1t is hoped to have the marble
mill going again within two weeks from
this time.
Messrs. Smith Il Allen were on We'd
nesday awarded the contract for rebuild
ing the pulp mill, which they undertake
to have ready for the machinery in four
weeks. The main building will be 100
feet long by % feet wide, and there will
be wing 3lX40. The machinery was
badly injured, and it will probably re-
quire longer to get that into running Or
der than to put up the new building. Mr.
Bryant, the superintendent. thinks it
quite likely that the mill will be ready
for use in six weeks at the longest
