SHARP POLITICAL DEBATE BEFORE TIL

A SHARP POLITICAL DEBATE BEFORE THE
VOTE IS TAKEN.
After long political wrangle yesterday the
pension appropriation bill was passed in the
House with but one vote in opposition-that of
Mr.. Bennett, of North Carolina
Mr.. Townshend, of Illinois, previous to the
passage of the bill. spent an hour in reading
affidavits and other documents, to show that
Dudley, when commissioner of pensions. had
used the pension-giving power to coerce demo-
Gratis into voting the republican ticket where
upon MIR. Reed, OF Maine, said that in violation
OF the rules of the House Commissioner Black
bad been on the floor OF the House to furnish
democrats with the records of the pension
Office for party purposes. The files of the Office
had been pundered. he said, TO supply not the
whole House, but democratic members with
evidence and information. He contrasted this
with the Presidents refusal to supply papers to
the Senate. Mr.. Hepburn, OF Iowa, said that
Mr.. Townshend had made a cowardly attack
upon an absent man, but afterwards withdrew
the word cowardly. Mr.. Reed summed up his
conclusions by saying that the production Of
these papers, II it was not q breach of public
decency, was violation Of private decency.

A F0rty.three Round Fight which Re.
suited In the Death Of q Participant,

suited In the Death Of . Participant.
FAYETTEVILLE, VIVA, March 5.-One of the
most brutal prize fights that ever took place in
this state was fought two days ago in a barn
the death of one of the contestants yesterday.
Inquiry developed the fact that Frank McGoni-
gle and James Sheady fought forty-tEree bloody
the fight, however, was an old and bitter grudge
growing out of a quarrel about girl who toy ed
with both their hearts. Mc(ionigle was young
miner and Sheady a blacksmith. Each man
stripped at about leo, McGonigle having the
advantage OF a few pounds and an inch in
besides the seconds, who were John HowIey
and Peter Jones, local sports. McGonigle
throughout the forty-three rounds had the
death. In the first round the latter
retired to his corner with a broken nose
at the same time splitting out piece OF the lit
tie finger OF McGonigles left hand. The men i'm
the fourth round were covered with blood from
head to foot. One Of the spectators said IL was
after the twentieth round had been fought
strong men turned away, sickened at the sight
The flesh was cut away from Sheady's eyes and
hung In pulp on bis cheeks. The rest of the
face was beaten into pulp. McGonigle's right
ear was torn almost completely off by Sheady's
teeth. his jaw was broken, and altogether ne
presented quite as terrible sight as his oppo-
nent. Neither man would give in. although at
the thirty round the seconds urged them
to STOP ney ,Ongno rin Se b gedS arc M &c
ponent to the floor time after time. The forty
third and last round found Sheady in his corner
lying face downward and insensible, while Nc
Gonigle, who had kicked him there, hurriedly
gathered his clothes together and staggered out
The seconds carried Sheady TO tbs home and
left him, where he died yesterday. Neither OF
them has been seen since, and the whereabouts
OF McGonigle are also unknown.

Special Cable DISPATCH TO THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, March 5.-Last nights debate I'm the
house OF commons was highly entertaining but
very undignified and equally ineffective.
Holmes oratory is of the hub-thumping ORDER
his logic absurd enough TO Justify the remark
that he seemed, at times, to forget by which
side he had been retained. AS an Irish men,
Der said, he cut the throat of his own arguments
In every other sentence. The speech was in-
tended TO show that the state of Ireland is so
much worse now as to render the governments
action in delaying the announcement OF its
measures totally inexcusable. With such a
thesis he could not help becoming ludicrous.
The Parnellites sat I'm a solid body and inter-
lected awkward questions, roared laughter.
and cheered ironically. These tactics entirely
destroyed whatever effect the speech might
otherwise have had.
Gladstone's reply suffered, because he
had nothing of any Importance to demolish.
With much playful humor he described
Holmes speech as one which children In the
lowest rank in The national school could not
fail to see through, futile, ludicrous fun of
lniantiie, innocent Ignorance and one of the
feeblest attacks he had ever known To be made
on the proceedings of an executive govern
ment.
Lord Randolph Churchill resorted to his old
trick OF reading long quotations from Glad
stones old speeches and threw up a defense
against a Parnellite attack which never came
by saying frankly that he had hoped at one
thine the Irish party would drop the idea OF re-
peal and consent to act with either the tories or
the liberals. Not single important liberal,
except Gladstone, spoke. No Parnellite spoke
at all. The tories were beaten on the motion 10
adjourn by a majority of $50. Then Holmes
motion was ANONYMOUSLY withdrawn. To-day
we are just as We were.
The press association issued last night an
authoritative statement that Gladstone mad de-
cided on a full home rule policy. This is, how.
ever exactly identical I'm effect and less full in
detail than the statement you published De-
cember Ii. may add that Dean Gladstone
has been working with the greatest delight on
his bill, in which form rather than by resolu-
ton there is every reason TO believe the subject
will be ultimately introduced.

tween penuriousness and recklessness. 1t
is the fear of the latter, and especially of
extravaganza in reference to dress, that
confirms many men in bachelOrship. A So
ciety paper tells us that at a recent dance,
a married lady of extravaganza habits i'm

he remained single because he could not

keep three; but I am not rich enough to
pay the miliner's bills of one" And yet
domestic economy is a woman's providence,
and a conscientious wife takes a pride in
learning and practicing it. She does not
think that all is gain which can be got
from husband, for she knows that the
state of his purse is matter of equal con-
sequence to both.
But a wife who does put conscience into
the management of her husbands money
should not be obliged to account to him for
the exact manner in which she lays out
each penny in the pound. An undue inter-
ference on his part will cause much do
nestle irritation, and may have bad influ-
ence on social morals. A wife has many
trifling demands on her purse which hus-
band need not investigate, and which. ii he
did, he would hardly understand. Let him
regulate the maximum of expenditure by
giving to her a certain sum of money. If
she be woman Of prudcnce-if his table

The Place TO Flirt.

Filtration in the woods, says the San
Francisco Chronicle, is always more Sc
rious ann impressive thing than in town.
You'll see couple come gradually together
in camp or at hotel by the seaside. AS
much as two or three days will elapse be-
fore any special affinity develops itself
Then you'll see little attentions of delicate
nature: they segregate from parties fist,
not too obviously; then they take to kind
of devoting themselves to each other; then
they get taking strolls alone; and the seri-
business becomes imposing. The other
campers or cutters are very respectful;
compact seems to exist that flirtations shall
be respected. But the demure air they both
put on is awfully funny. They're partly
ashamed aud partly proud; they are little
scared at first, and steal off separately and
meet accidentally out of sight But it
doesn't last long and they very soon take
to marching off openly together, while
every man and woman in the camp casts a
smile askew at them as they go. Then
they quarrel and she won't speak to him;
she treats him with great frigidity, and
and everybody in Camp sympathZes on one
side or another. Then they make up and
everybody in camp knows it. And all you
ever hear of it after the season is: 30, yes;
they were a good deal together at Mon
terey."
Ii it was in town, everybody would say:
''Its shameful the way those two are going
on"
And yet is there half as much chance in
town as in the woods?

Fortescue as a Kicker.



1 learn from an Englshman who has just
arrived by the Etruria that there is great
deal of interest in London over Miss Fortes-
cues coming American tour. 1t is not the
usual interest in her success or failure. but
a general desire to know how her American
managers will succeed in controlling her.
They say that she has tendancy to kick"
which leaves even Patti and the great Ameri-
an mule in dense obscurity. ~ er estimate
of her own Importance is CO al. Though
there seems to be no doubt thai her gifts as
an actress are of an uncOnsequential order,
she looks upon herself as an artist of very
exalted order. Thus far she has quarreled
very extensively on the other side of the
water. She will have cheering specimen
to bulldoze in her American manager, Dan
Frohman. After few encounters with
that calm, serene. and retiring gentleman
she will begin to wish that she had staid at
home. Kicking" has about as much effect
on Mr.. FrOhman as newspaper comment
has OIL the north pole. Miss Fortescue is
not very popular in London, either off or on
the STARE
