of Royal Grants.
LABOUCHERE's ACUTE TONGUE
Minister Lincoln Makes a Pointed
Address-The French
Elections.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
LONDON, July 29.-The House of Com
mons, sitting in committee, resumed de-
bate on the Royal Grant bill today
john Morley moved an amendment de-
claring the House unwilling to increase
the burdens of the people without assur'
ance that no further claims will be made
for younger members of the Royal fam
lily, The Government had not made ou'
their case either in the select committee
or in the House. Parliament had
already provided literally for the
children of the Queen. 1t had
shown that retrenchments might be
made in expenditures upon royalty with.
out causing the Queen any anxiety. He
especially objected to the assertion of the
claim to grants of the grandchildren Of
the Queen. He moved the amendment in
order to prevent the re-assertion and re-
affirmation o: claim, the justice Of
which is denied.
Chamberlain said Morley objected to
the grants because no fnality was prom
ised, but as regarded the present reign
the proposed grants were absolutely final.
He did not think after the Queens
promise any Minister would advise any
sovereign to ask further grants for other
grandchildren of Her Majesty. Cham
berlain said it was shameful to fawn
upon a monarch, but it was still more
shameful to truckle to the multitude.
The members who were doing go were
nothing less than nihllists of English
politics. Loud Conser sstive cheers nd
Radical groans.l
Labouchere said he hailed Morley g
amendment as practical refusal of fur
ther grants during the present reign.
With future reigns he would not trou Ole
himself. Public opinion was making
strides towards the acceptance OF
the principle that the sovereign,
like any other head of family,
ought to provide for her child
dren. The Conservatives who, in and
out of season, had vilifed Gladstone,
were now ready to fall down and worship
him, because on the question of
grantshe has turned their way.
They would worship the devil him
self under similar circumstances.
[Cries of "Order."l In conclusion,
he said he and his colleagues would be
beaten on division, but he intended to
oppose the grants at every stage as q
moral protest against the Crowns
claims.
Morley's amendment was defeated by
a vote of 355 to 1874. Gladstone, the
Parnellites and the bulk of the dissidents
again voted with the Government.

which some of them did, employed them
in this drudgery, hence the process was

CaSSOw3rv FISHING.

The habits of the cormorant and Of
our native fish hawk are generally
known. Their methods of taking fish
are very much like those of birds OF
prey. But the cassowary fishes accord
ing to method of its own. Mr.. Powell
witnessed its operations on a river in the
island of New Britain:
Isaw cassowary come down to the
waters edge, and stand for some minutes
apparently watching the water carefully.
1t then stepped into the river where il
was about three feet deep, and, partially
squatting down, spread its wings out,
submerging them, the feathers being
spread and ruffled.
The bird remained perfectly motion
less, and kept its eyes closed, as if in
sleep. 1t remained in this position for
fully quarter of an hour, when, sud-
denly closing its wings and strengthening
its feathers, it stepped out on the bank.
Here it shook itself several times, where
upon a quantity of small fishes fell out
of its wings, and from amidst its feath-
ers, which the bird Immediately picked
up and swallowed.
The fishes had evidently mistaken the
feathers for kind of weed that grows
in the water along the banks Of the rivers
in this island, and which very much re-
sembles the feathers of the cassowary.
The smaller fishes hide in these weeds to
avoid the larger ones that prey on them.

Foods for the Nervous.

Many brain workers and others of
highly nervous temperaments are trou-
bled with insomnia, nervous twitchings
and starting from sleep and sensations of
falling. These symptoms indicate weak
nerves. The victim can very often indeed
cure himself by dietetic means alone.
The best diet is milk. and for o time it
would be wise for him to limit himself
to that. The quantity required by an
adult to support him well is one pint at
a meal, and four meals should be taken
daily. The milk used should be up to
the standard; if it is not, cream should
be added toit. People with weak nerves.
as a rule, drink but very little water,
whereas they usually require a larger
quantity than those whose nerves are
strong and not easily shaken. Boston

the clerk, when the young lady had left

want Of eel skins:'
"Rheumatism," said the drug clerk.
YOU'D be surprised at the number of
people who use eel skins for rheuma-
tism. l know an old man whose arms
and legs are completely strapped with
them, and he believes that they prolong
his life. We have more or less call for
them. but / understand that up town
stores don't keep them, although once
in while their customers ask for them.
We get our skins of fish dealer on At
lantic avenue. He purchases them from
South Boston people, who sell the skinned
cells for food, and when the skins are
dried, sell them to various customers.
In many of the fish stores on Atlantic
avenue you will see bunch of the skins
suspended from the wall by q hook.
They are very oily and soft, and while l
don't take much stock in them, num-
bers of people have implicit faith in
them. l am told that there is a German
family in South Boston that sells these
eel skins to various people throughout
the United States and realizes a snug
little income therefrcm. Boston Globe.

1t is not generally known that the
term Lynch law" originated in Camp
bell county, Va, before the revolutions
DRY war. AT that period the country
was thinly settled and was infested with
Tories and desperadoes-too many of
them, apparently, for the local author
tiles to adequately punish. Col. Charles
Lynch, distinguished officer of the
revolutionary army, undertook to rid
his country of the outlaws. He organ
lied force, arrested the outlaws, and
having satisfied himself and comrades OF
the guilt of the accused, executed them
without reference to the constituted au.
thorities. While not altogether approx.
ing OF the desperate remedy for q des.
perate cause, the beneficial effect of Col.
Lynch's action was recognized, and has
since been known as 'Lynch's hw" o,
Lynch law"
Lynch's process of melting out speedy
justice extended to other parts of the
country, and is well recognized form
of redress of grievances today, particu
larly for that class of offenses that are

punished by the statutes and courts Of
the state. Col. Lynch's brother gave his
name to Lynchburg, and left son who
