The French Essentially Home Loving

inc FRENCH EsscnL1Auy oOn6 LOVING.
Yes, the French are essentially home low
ing. And their morality, SO often impugned
by Ignorant critics, who find it easier TO re-
peat idle nonsense than to study for them
selveS-thelr morality will bear favorable
comparison with that of any English speak
ing nation; of this am convinced from the
depths of my soul. But we are happy, and
tare not jot what impression we make.
You will never hear n Frenchman ask q
foreigner: Now, what do you think of us!"
We never trouble to show our best side to the
foreigner. This is what msleads completely
so many outsiders. In France, the vice that
there is is on the surface for every one to see.
1t is all open to every locker on; there Is
nothing hidden. What there is, that you see;
no slightest effort is made to hide defects.
In comes the Englishman or the American,
and forgetting the carefully hidden vice
which exists-and with a vengeance-in his
own great towns, cries out upon the immor-
atty Of Paris.
| will go SO far as to say that in France
there is not even SO much vice as there ap-
pears to be. Let me explain myself. Far
from attempting to hide our faults, we, as q
matter of fact, often make show of those we
have not The Frenchman is the braggart
Of vice. Like the Anglomaniacs, represented
by Mr.. Robson In that charming comedy,
''The Henrietta, leach fellow" in France,
"wants every other fellow to believe that he
is devil of fellow, but he isn't" The
small jokes that Frenchman will go in for
may be ridiculous in your eyes, and, worse
than that, they may, and often do, earn him
the reputation Of a reprobate. But you. dear
reader, when you get a chance look beneath
that boasting exterior, look at the man in his
family relations, follow him to his home
ah, there comes the rub-his home is closed
to you, and you cannot easily know what
devoted husband, what doting father, is
this same man who is SO fond of posing in
public as Jolly dog Max O'Reu in Tho

THE PARNELL INVESTIGATION

LONDON, July 3o.-The house of COM
mons went into committee on the bill TO
investigate tie charges against Mr.. Par
nell. Mr.. Sexton moved 10 Increase the
number of judges in the commission to
five. If it was TO inquire into the whole
history OF the national league, extending
over nine years; if the league embraced
members in every part OF the world, it
would take several years before the inquiry
could lie finished. Much evidence might
have to be sought abroad. Three judges
were not sufficient unless the inquiry was
limited.
Mr.. Mathews in reply said that the gov
eminent could not accept the amendment
aed that Mr.. Sexton had exaggerated the
task before the commission Doubtless
the course OF the inquiry would lead TO
investigations abroad. but there would be
no difficulty in taking such evidence
There woald be nothing gained by in
cressing the num Der OF the judaes.
Mr.. Parneu urged the house 10 recollect
that they were discussing a proposal TO
provide a substitute for the jury. While
in England jury of twelve was always
provided, 1t was proposed that the settle

WHERE is STANIEY7

LONDON, July 30-Tne whereabouts and
condition of Mr. Henry NJ Stanley are
rapidly becoming the questions of the hour
owing to the multiplication of rumors con-
corning the mysterious white pasha who,
it is claimed by many is really Stanley,
coupled with the total absence OF definite
news regarding the explorer and hi s party.
1t is now quite year since Mr.. Stanley
has been heard from through means eff
direct communication giving evidence of
genuiness. The most probable of the the
cries put forth concerning him is the one
that Stanley has failed to meet Emln and
that both are in pressing need of help. 1t
is not likely that either Stanley or Emin
would engage in march of conquest
against Khalifa Abqullah, the new Mahdi
without being adequa tely supplied with
men, arms, ammunition, stores, etc, and
it is, of coure, known that neither is equip
ped. This is held to disSipate the assump-
ton that one of them is the white
pasha."

NEWS FROM STEVENS COUNTY.

NtWS fhOM . ! CNElSO COON =
Liberal, July 30,-General Meyers and
Attorney General Bradford arrived here
yesterday afternoon and soon after started
for Stevens county to prevent further
bloodshed, and presumably to arrest the
parties who killed Sheriff Cross and depu-
ties. Mr. Huges arrived from Hugoton
this afternoon With dispatches from Gen
erel Meyers TO Governor Martin. 1t is be
lieved that ne asked for troops to be sent
to him to enable him to ,.isarIn both fac
tons and 20 arrest the ringleaderS on both
sides. There was no disturbance yesterday,
and up to the time that HUges left Hugo
ton today everybody has been quiet, but
the trouble is not over by any means. The
Hugoton people are well armed and ready
for any emergency, expecting that the
Woodsdale people will take vengeance
whenever they get a chance. Nineteen
Winchester rifles were brought into
Woodsdale yesterday. Very few farmers
of s, evens county are taking sides and the
quarrel is confined to the inhabitants of
the two towns mentioned. The two
officers sent out by the governor may
succeed in preventing bloodshed while
they are present, but as soon as they are
gone the trouble is liable to
break out afresh at any time.
The Woodsdale people believe some of
the inhabitants of Hugoton ought TO be
killed il they don't leave the county ard
the Hugoton people entertained the same
idea in regard to certain citizens of Woods
dale and there is personal enmity at play
outside the fight for supremacy between
the two towns, and the tragedy in the
Neutral Strip may be re-enacted on a
small or large scale whenever the oppor-
tunity is offered.
The town of Liberal was today declared
by the county commissioners Of Seward
county a city of the third class. The new
city will elect its first officers on August
