Sir Henry James 1n<lx1ses in a Flight of
 Fancy.


 LONDON, Nov. 9.-At the request of Sir Henry James the Parnell Commits sion djourned until next Tuesday. On that day the counsel for the Times" will resume his speech in apology for the Government.
 Some diversion was caused in the court room by Sir Henry James describ- Ing Matthew Harris as man of singu- lar ability. He indulged ill this little flight of fancy in order to give some prominence to Harris memorable asser- tion that landlords deserved to be shot down like cartridges.
 In dealing with the same subject at an earlier stage of the case, Sir Charles Russell had described this same Harris | as not an intellectual man at all, but one of the ruder-mouthed fellows whose noise and invective have been cause | of great annoyance to the Parnelltes. | This is, however, fair sample of the | sort of perversion of truth and all the | circumstances to which Sir Henry James is continually resorting in his futile efforts to demonstrate that the | Government has any cause for it's bru- tai persecution of the Irish. | At the conclusion of Sir Henry speech, it is expected that the court will call witnesses, under tho power which is conferred upon it by the spec. ial act which created the Commission o1 1 Inquiry. In fact. the court has power tC l do almost anything. even to tho sup l pressing of essential testimony for the defense, it's refusal to admit which led l to the withdrawal of Sir Charles Rus sell and his colleagues.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

Polo last night: At New Haven-New Haven ii, Bridgeport G.; at Springfield Springfield :, Hartford 5.
 John O. Nero of New Haven has post ed $50 forfeit for fight for S2 ,OO0 or less between Arthur O. Upham of Nor wich and Bill Dunn of Jersey City.
 The players base ball league will hay e very strict rules against intoxication. The first offence will cost $50, the second $1OO, and the third $150. For fourth offence expulsion will follow.
 It is no longer a secret that several of the best men in the association will be found in the Players national league next year. Before President Day buys the Athletics he will probably want to know how many of the ''goods" can be delivered.
 The attendance at the fall meeting at the driving park yesterday was not large. The winners were as follows Naugatuck class-Thomas Neary s Crank" 2:42 class-Thomas Robinson $ "G. w. B. ;" 2:50 class-W. R. Smiths "Fred," w. H. Sparks ''Billy S." and P. B. Norton's ''Lady Landcraft." The man who divulged the intentions of the Brotherhood of base ball players to the representative of Chicago news paper, was Larry Twitchell of the Cleve- | lands. His traitorous break caused | considerable consternation in the ranks of the brotherhood as the members were not ready to have their plans made public. It also served to put the league magnates on their guard.

SCRANTON, Pa., Nov. 9.-The follow Ing has been received from Cheyenne, Wyo: The murder of a man by four companions on the Sweet Water river was reported to Sheriff Sparhawk, of Freemont county, on Tuesday. He ar rested the suspected men at Granger, near the Utah line, the following day. The story is that the dead man was ac- cused of the theft of $40, and was shot down in cold blood for the otfense. His body was found near the road, where it had been carelessly thrown. The men composed a hunting party and, beyond the fact that their victims name was B. Foreman and that he came from Scranton, Pennsylvania, nothing could be learned.

Its work has been greeted most enthusiastically wherever it has ap- peared, and large business has been the result. Waterbury will prove no excep- tion to the rule and large house will greet this great company next Monday night.

A DIALOGUE OF FACTS.

MoTHER-'Kate how is the fair get ting on."
 KATE-"Oh, splendid. Crowded houses every night and such elegant presents to take chances on. Prominent among them is fine piano and organ to be voted away to the holder of the lucky numbers'
 MoTHER-"Well, now Kate you sur- prise me. Pianos and organs are pretty expensive presents to give away. Father l Treanor must have got a good bargain. l Whose make are they ?"
 KATE-"Really, now mother I am equally surprised that you should ask that question; Shoninger's, of course. They make the best. Nearly every house I go into has one, and l am beginning to think it is time had one myself" l MOTHER Surely, now you arouse my interest. Chances on such fine instru- ments are not offered every day. Of course we will take some tickets. Should we win, all right; if not, we will make a visit to Shoninger's and buy one ot their elegant pianos. They must do an extensive business, and company that transacts the largest volume of business is always best equipped to make low prices. B. SHoN1NGER & Co,

CLAD IN FEMALE ATTIRE.
A Youth Who Pretended To Be
 NIisS Iillia Howard.

Miss Lillie Howard.
 Manager Bayles of the Ansonia skat- ing rink is looking for the scalp of Johnny Dodds, the roller skater, who was here with Guerrero at the recent walking match. Dodds had agreed to appear at the Ansonia rink with Miss Lillie Sellew of New Haven, who was represented as trick and fancy skater. About a week ago Miss Sellew was taken ill and informed the manager that she could not appear. Dodds then agreed to substitute Miss Lillie Howard, also of New Haven. Thursday night Dodds appeared promptly and informed Manager Bayles that Miss Howard was near at hand. As the time approach ed for Miss Howard to make her appearance the manager asked to be introduced to the young lady, but Dodds put him off, and it was nearly nine o'clock when the manager made a second request for an introduction. Dodds then demanded half the pay for Miss Towards appearance, which was handed over by Mr Bayles on being in- formed that Miss Howard was in the dressing room. At the appointed hour the music struck up and young man from New Haven, named Adams, waltzed forth in female attire. No one was allowed to approach 'her" or get near enough to discover the identity of the fancy skater. But the people dis covered the imposition and were mad.

THE MYSTERIOUS KEY.
Found After Tedious Search of Over
 a Week.


 Men, women and children have been hunting for that mysterious key for a week or more and as the result of their efforts keys of all sizes and kinds have been constantly unloaded upon the DEMOCRAT office slnce the first call for the missing key was made.
 The first to answer the call was a sweet young miss with a roguish pair of eyes. She had found the key on South Main stree land promptly re- turned it to the DEMOCRAT office. The key she left was an old fashioned one for cabinet lock. When we reluctantly told the dear girl that she had not | found the right one, she changed her chewing gum to the other side of her mouth and left smiling, feeling that she had performed her duty.
 Next came cadaverous locking in- dividual with loud voice and dirty collar" We'll found her," he roared, as he opened the door, ''where's the 'bood. :" The religious editor asked for further enlightenment, when with whitening | look the visitor produced huge brass the price of couple of horns to "bring her in." The editor assured the finder on the word of a christian that he had 1 found the wrong key, and as of post script advised him of the danger that turks in the 'horn." The stranger fled and his partner who was waiting outside the door, was seen to make mysterious chalk mark on the sinewalk.
 l A happy little Irish man with a bald head and a rich brogue dropped in the second evening of the search" Is it you that lost the key" he asked of the sport ing editor. Receiving an offimative an swer he produced four keys of different makes.'' There begorra, you canheve your pick" he said. fouud the four be- yant on the Brooklyn bridge and Misthel Kelly towld me to bring them up here. When told that the keys were not the right ones the little man was not at al put out and promised to bring in any others he might find. And say," he said becoming familiar, eff you're over by me house come in and see us. The bes we have will be at your sarvice."
 Other callers who had found key! were numerous, but the stray article was not found until this morning whe1 the missing keys which were lost by J A. Godfrey & Go were found simulta neously on the door knob of nearly every house in the city.
