Mr.. ParnelI Speaks,

LONDON, December s0.-Mr. Parnell has

They Silent in the Streets.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 30.-lt is not neces-
sary to go to ireland to witness cruel
evictions. The police OF St. Louis are
Just now investigating one that has all
the marks of English enterprise. For
five nights two widows, Mrs. Anna lioos
and Mrs. Mary Black, the former with
three and the latter with two children,
have slept in the streets. The widows
rented two rooms on North Twcnty-frst
street from a man named Flynn, paying
Tor them So a month. For two months
the two women have not been able to pay
the rent demanded. Flynn went to a
Justice court ana sued Mrs. Roos for $40
rent. Judgment was rendered against
her, and the constable with his deputy
went last Tuesday to the rooms ana car
ried out every stick of furniture and
every article of household possessions
these two women had. The goods were
left by the fence around the shanty. The
women and children were turned out to
take care Of themselves as best they
could, aud the doors of their miserable
home were locked against them. On
Tuesday Mrs. ROos and Mrs. Black, with
their five children. arranged themselves
as best they could along the fence, piling
up the lew pieces of furniture they
possessed so as to make some sort of a
shelter. Each of the women owned one
mattress. These they laid on the ground
together, and at night the seven human
beings would huddlc as close as they
could and cover themselves over with two
ragged old quilts. The mothers earned
enough money 20 buy food, and that was
all. A blizzard came Saturday night and
a neighbor told a policeman of the case.
The women and children we're taken to
the station, and when the horror Of the
case became public a liberal fund was
started for them.
