PARLIAMENT.
The Schemes Ofthe Conservatives
Become Apparent
AS THE TIME FOR THE REAssEMBLlNo
APPROACHES.

England and Scotland to Receive Their
Attention While ireland Takes Back
seat-rhe Tories Fear Their Time Has
Come - Nationalists Confident Other
Foreign News.
LONDON, Nov. las the time for the re-
assembling of parliament approaches it be-
comes more and more apparent that the
Conservatives are resolved to keep Irish
matters out of the bounds of discussion as
much as possible during the session, and de-
vote themselves to sucn legislation for En-
gland and Scotland as will tend to strengthen
the party.
The loss of several seats within the last
year has frightened some of the more timid
writing is upon the wall, and even the stout
est hearted ones see the necessity for prompt
and vigorous measures to proiong the party IS
official life.
As means of convincing the people that
the Conservative party by its action in Ire
land had averted disaster to the country in
the shape OF wholesale murder, arson, etc. the
Parnell commission was thought to be god
send, but the rulings Of that body
on the admission of a certain line
OF testimony and the growing
weakness of the Times against the Parnell-
ties have destroyed their reliance upon that
method of making party capital and set the
governments adherents to casting about in
new fields.
On the other hand, the Nationalists appear
to gain confidence daily and make no con
cealment Of their determination to force an
Irish measure Of some kind upon the issue in
order to precipitate debate. 1t is claimed by
many of the leaders, and no doubt, believed
by all, that every Irish speech in Parliament
is worth two on the stump, and for this
reason debate is what is most wished for.
Tne Liberals appear to be perfectly will
ing to acquiesce in the Nationalist program,
but stand ready to point out to their more
impetuous colleagues the danger of obstruc
tive tactics at this time. If the government
brings in English remedial legislation, the
measure or measures ought, they believe, to
receive the support of the Irish party as a
means of spikihg the enemy's guns.

ers Settle 1t With Pistols.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. There has been
deadly feud for several years hssween John
II. McFee and Thomas H. Slavin. originat-
ing in Knightstown, this state, over business
matters, aud the trouble eliminated Tuesday
night in a shooting affray in which Savin
was shot under the right shoulder and McFeo
through the bowels and right ear, all three
shots taking effect from the rear, showing
that both were moving when wounded.
Eight shots were fired altogether in the
saloon and on tue sidewalk, and number of
persons were imperiled by flying bullets.
McFee was fatally hurU and Slavin dan
gerously, and both men were transferred 20
the hospital. Both men came TO this county
some time ago, engaging in the saloon bus
iness, but at dilferenJ points. Afterward
McFee sold out, and he made trips to differ
ent points, hut whenever he returned and
Slavin's name was mentioned, he was quick
to express his determination Of wiping him
out sooner or later Savin was also bitter
toward McFee AMI u bloody encounter has
been ANTICIPATED by their friends for
months
McFee has quite history, as he once shot
the marshal OF Klightstown, and he also
killed a negro az Carthage, this state. In
the last named case he proved self defense.
After his arrest Tuesday night he remarked:
''Slavin has done me up, but if I've finished
him it's all right" He has wife and chill
dren at Knightstown.
Slavin is unmarried. Bystanders report
that when Slavin began shooting McFee ran
into the street; then he turned and chased
Slavin back into the saloon, shooting him
down as he entered the door.

But NO Frost at JacksOnyille-Only Ono
Death Tuesday.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Nov. 1.-The dis.
charging of large number OF men from the
public work necessitated by tpe demands for
immediate retrenchment of expenses Of tho
sanitary association funds has already caused
mutterings and grumblings among the col
ored people This Is danger that has long
been apprehended, and requires to be care
fully watched for fear they may rise in riot
GUS action, and cause great loss to property,
il not possibly life.
A petition to pay the home phycicians for
their services to charity patients was not fa-
vorably considered by the sanitary associa-
tion, as the establishment of the bureau Of
medical aid and the services of the visiting
doctors was designed to meet this want, they
attending only to the INDECENT sick, and not
interfering in any way with the private prac-
tice of the local doctors.
A decided change in the weather took
place Monday night, the temperature very
perceptiby falling, though it did not bring
the much coveted frost The thermometer
fell to 81 degrees. As the shades Of night
began to fall 1t commences to grow colder,
and we earnestly trust there will be a con-
tinuance OF the cold weather until the ther-
mometer falls sufficiently low to welcome
the advent of Jack Frost, the only cham
pion who we believe can down Yellow
Jack.

SPORTING.
Duny and MCMILLAN Fight-The Former
Wins on q Foul.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The much h-talked.
Of prize fight between Patrick Duffy, of
Boston, and William Mcmillan, Of this city,
took place at o'clock Tuesday night, and
was won by Duffy in the seventeenth round
The fight was attended by about hundred
or more sporting men who left Tuesday
night to be present The. scene Of the fight
was on the Virginia shore about fifteen
miles below the city. The purse which was
to have been $500 was about $50 short, but
Jack Kirwin for Duffy agreed to fight for
the money in hand. Mr. Collahan, of Balti-
more was selected as referee
The first round opened with clever spar
ring On both sides, until Duffy landed good
blow ON McMillan's cheek. Mcmillan re-
ceived it solidly, and countered with his
right Both then exchanged rapid, though
Intellectual blows, and the round terminated
without either gaining advantage
In the second round Duffy drew first blood
but Mcmillan made so fierce an onslaught
on him that he drove him to the ropes. The
betting, which started IS to 15S on Duffy,
went up to even money on Mcmillan.
In.he third round Mcmillan twice clinched
with Duffy aud threw him down, but claims
of fouls were not allowed.
In the fourth and fifth rounds Mcmillan
tried to renew the rushing, but was met with
several heavy face blows that staggered him
and dazed him. From that time it was
merely question of McAIilian's endurance.
He was game, though, and stood some
heavy slugging in manner that excited the
admiration of the audience.
In the thirteenth round heavy blow on
the neck sent Mcmillan staggering to the
side of the ring, where he fell like a log. He
rose and fought on for four rounds more, but
his fighting consisted merely in clinching
with Duffy and butting him with ais head.
In the seventeenth round the fight was given
Duffy on foul of this kind
The party returned to the city at O'Clock.
Mcmillan was said to be in serious condi
tion and was brought to the city. Duffy
was not much the worse for the battle ex-
cept about his hands, which he had hurt in
hitting Mcmillan. Duffy's friends claimed
that some water given him to drink had
been poisoned

A GIRLS COMPOSITION ON
DnNc

This composition reads very much as
il it had been written by "girl" about
forty years old, or by boy forty five. 1t
may be, however, that the girl who wrote
it was ''reslly and truly" girl neverthe-
less. Whatdo you think?
Boys are men that have not got as big
as their papas, and girls is young women
that will be young ladies by and by. Man
was made before woman. When God
looked at Adam, he said to himself, Well,
1 guess I can do better if try again,
and then he made Eve. God liked Eve
SO much better than Adam chat there
have been more women than men ever
since. Boys are trouble. They are
wearing ON everything but soap. If 1
had my way, half the boys in the world
would be little girls, and the rest would
be dolls. My papa is SO nice that guess
he must have been little girl when he
was little boy
