mt from the city clerk. Through asso-
ciated charities many families were furn-
ished with lodging last night in rooms
hired at lodging and dwelling houses, and
ratioDs of hot soup. crackers and bread
are being served to all in need of food.

adjustments are wiped out. Shortly after
noon the mayor called to order a meeting
of citizens DESTROYS of aiding the suffering.

port of the probable loss, the number of
people deprived of employment and the
length of time that would elapse before
they could again get work. A subscrip
ton list was started and contributions
were received.

committee was appointed and IS. $50 sub

Mrs. ParneII Talks.

TRENTON, N. j.. Nov. 27.-Mrs.
Della Parnell gave tie following to a re-
porter:
Il received assistance from my appeal
until Fitzgerald OF the Land League took
it upon himself to deny the story told by
my friends. He said in substance that
the league would take care of me il |
made application to them. My poverty
dates back'to 1879. ! was destitute then
and prominent members of the league
we're SO informed. They took no action
but gave me the lie. James Redpath of
New York took up my case, but when
prominent leaders of the league gave me
the lie, he too. abandoned the. idea of
raising the fund quietly from a few
wealthy members of the league. In 1885
when l was i'll in New York, the league
members again knew of my condition.
but no action was taken. Ellen Ford,
daughter of Patrick Ford, Mrs. Condor,
Mrs. Kehoo. Miss Maria Doherty and
others raised between 81, 700 and 81, 900,
but most of it went for expenses. The
property my brother left me which has
been considered a fortune. did not pay
one cent of interest.
Il have kept matters from the public
until L nave stared starvation in the face.
When | would appeal to prominent mem
bers of the league | would be told that
my son Charles had sufficient means to
helm me. This is false. Charles Stewart
Parnell has not a dollar of his own in the
world. What money he has had has
been contributed to the cause of Ireland,
and he has no right to use it for my sup
port. 1t is true he gave up his private
fortune for the cause, and when my boy
entered Irish politics | gave up my dowry
to aid him and Ireland. But what is that
if he wins home rule for the nation?"
Mrs. Parnell spoke OF the injustice be-
ing done her by the Land League and she
said she would curse the day she ever
married Parnell if that was to be used
against her now.

Suit Against Bonj. Butler.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 81. = Samuel
Strong. whose claim against the District
has become almost historical, to-day filed
a suit against Benz. F. Butler for $3.50, 900
damages for SANDER. Gen. Butler brought
suit several months ago against Strong
for money which he asserted was due him
as contingent counsel fees out of an award
made to Strong. The suit developed
some highly exciting features. among
which was the production of a paper by
Strong which, if genuine. would show
that Butler had agreed to accept for his
services an amount much lower than that
named in the suit. Butler denounced the
document as a forgery and the suit for
SANDER grows out of this.

The Greatest of Bridges.

We understand. says the Glasgow
Mail, that Messrs. Schneider & Hersent
have completed the plans and estimates
for the bridge they propose to erect
across the English Channel, and intend
petitioning for the concession next Jan
uary. This gigantic structure will ex-
tend from spot not far from Cape
Grizuez, on the French coast, to point
near Folkestone, a distance of about
thirty-seven kilometers, exclusive of
the approach lines, and it is proposed
to make it thirty meters wide, with two
up and two down lines and carriage
road. The bridge is to be supplied
with the electric light, and the rails are
to be laid below the level of the surface,
SO that they will be boxed in in the
event of train getting off the line. AS
regards the cost, the foundation and
masonry are estimated at 100000 600
francs 1872, 900, O00), and the total cost at
COZ, 900, 900 francs 1920, 900, O0O). It has
been calculated that about 100000
tons of goods and 2,250,00O passengers
would pass over the bridge during
twelve months, and represent gross re-
ceipts of 192.000,00O francs, and as the
working expenses are reckoned at about
81 100000 francs, the probable net re-
ceipts are put down at $50. 900 600 francs.
1t is expected that the international
commission will deliver it's opinion on
this project before the end of the pres
ent wear

even for home use.
Bone meal and potash in some form,
especially in muriate or kainit, are
staple fertilizers for all the small fruits.
The muriate can be applied in the fall
with advantage. and bone meal also, if
somewhat coarse. The application of a
very fine bone flour had better be put
off until early spring.
Although many remedies have been
suggested for killing borers in trees,
such as forcing salt in the holes, ETC.,
the surest method is to kill the borer
by inserting piece of wire into the
opening as it cannot escape if the wire
is thrust in as far as the borer has pene
trated.
One of the difficulties with young
trees, when the ground alternately
freezes and thaws, is that OF being in
jured by high winds. When thaW oc-
ours the ground is loosened around the
trunk and becomes so soitened that the
trees are thrown over. This must be
guarded against by carefully tramping
the soil around the trunks whenever
the ground thaws.

look out when you catch 'em. See that

Mr.. Visger held up the index finger
of his right hand. 1t was all Scared

81 had speared twentv-six muskrats
that day, about thirty years ago. It
was down on the river Ecorse. When
[ speared one fellow took hold Of him

nearly took that finger off. But would
sooner eat one muskrat than five
pounds porter house steak. When the
boys used to GO on muskrat hunt in
the old days, and catch fifteen or twen-
ty apiece, they would sit down in the
muskrat houses and play cards, to see
who would win the lot. It generally
ended by one man winning the whole
pile, and he would go staggering home
under load of $50 or 200 rats.

of Ecorse, is hunting rats now, and in

Jim Lanes Election Promises.

Speaking Of the trading that was done
In the recent election, ex-senator Hen
derson, Of Missouri, said the other day:
Jim Lane once told me a story of the
manner OF his re election to the Senate,
and he told it rather boastfu]ly, too.
There was contest in the Legis ature,
and to obtain enough votes to eject
him Lane promised the appointment
Of marshal of the District of Kansas to
seventeen different members of the
Legislature. When he returned to
Washington after his reelection, the
seventeen candidates followed close
in their demands, and Lane was
at bis wits ends for excuses.
He finally determined on a radical
course. He made an appointment with
each of the candidates for a certain
evening. They were all asked for the
same evening and the same hour. And
they were all there on time. Some of
them arrived fifteen minutes before the
time. None were late. None knew
what tie others were after. When all
had assembled, Lane addressed them:
Gentlemen, he said, I was in tight
place last winter and promised each of
you the marshalship of the district of
Kansas. am in tighter place to-day.

purest motives. It was not for my per-
sonal good or aggrandizement that l
wished reelection. 1t was for the good
of the state of Kansas. I brought that
state into the Union. had the Indians
cleared out of it and put into the Indian
Territory. | have promised all the
public land in the state to railroads. I
have promised so much land that we
will have to go out of the state to get all
the acres | have promised. The state
will be gridironed with railroads, and
there is every reason to believe that in
a few years it will be one of the great
est states in the Union. All this [ have
done. | thought the state of Kansas
needed me in the Senate, and it was with
that idea that l made those promises
which cannot now fulfill. If I have
deceived you, gentlemen, / believe
heaven will forgive me. But you. gen.
tlemen, who should have voted for me
from the purest and highest impulses
you were actuated only by sordid mo-
tives. You voted for me for price, and
[ do not think that you are worthy in
the sight ofheaven of any recognition or
consideration. renounce all of you,
and in the interest of the state of Kan
sas will select an entirely new man for
the position that you all covet, and have
him appointed marshal. Good evening,
gentlemen -
