LONDON, Nov. 12.-The latest Whitechapel murder is still the leading topic of discussion, and all of the old theories as to the identity of the murderer are revived The face of the woman Kelly, when her body was found resembled a bloody ball. The nose, ears and cheeks were missing, but the eyes had not been touched Surgeons stitched the face together as best they could, but it was found impossible to identify the woman from such of her features as were intact or drawn to- gether
 The Bavarian Royal academy, at Munich, has elected Mir. James Whistler to honorary membership ill recognition of his superb art.
 A Paris reporter who witnessed an experi- ment with the Lebel rifle few days ago writes to his paper that at distance of 600 metres the weapon drove ball through five manlkin soldiers, shattering the back of the fifth as completely as it had the first. Other trials were made ill which several sheep were killed at a distance of :, 800 metres, the balls passing entirely through them.

LEXINGTON. Va, October Speaker
Carlisle delivered an address here this
morning upon the tsriff issue. A large
aud enthusiastic audience greeted him
and his able and forcible discussion OF the
national issues won the attention and APP
plause of the assem6lage. He said the
Republican party was a party that adyo-
Gated a strong central government at
Washington, while the Democracy
favored government by and for the
people, and while that was not the issue
prominently brought out now, 1t was a
cardinal principle OF the great national
parties. He referred TO President Cleye-
lands administration and showed 1t to
be the best and most honest administra-
tion for twenty years. The land question
was discussed and then the tariff was
explained and the Mills bill was dissected.
The speaker claimed il was the only
measure that had been presented to Con-
gress for years that was intended TO ben
eft the masses. Protection as advocated
by the Republican party was, he claimed,
"a direct tax on consumers for the benefit
Of the manufacturers. Does the Mills
bill protect the lahOrer, asked Mr. Carlisle.
Yes. How, say you BY the reduction OF
import duties which reduces the prices of
goods consumed and the laborer pays q
more reasonable figure for his necessities
The question of home market was dis
cussed at length The address lasted one
hour and thirty minutes. Mr.. Carlisle is
