THE "TIMES"-PARNELL CASE.

Continuing the Investigation-The MAN.
ager of the London "Times" on the
Stand.
LONDON, February 19.-The courtroom
was crowded, to-day, when the Parnell
com mission resumed it's sitting. Labou-
chere, John Morley, George Shaw, LIE.
vevre and other prominent persons were
present. Macdonald, manager OF the
''Times," the first witness, declined to say
whether he regarded the letter ofthe 9th of
January and the 18th of May as the only
important ones among the first five which
the secretary Of the Irish loyal and pa
triotic union handed to him. Justice
Hannen sharply rebuked the witness for
his refusal. Macdonald continued, and
said the letters had been taken as a
whole, and as q whole they were compro
missing.
Witness said he forgot whether, when he
submitted the Egan letters to an expert, he
also submitted other specimens OF Egan's
writing. He could not be positive whether
he then had actual specimens OF Egan's
writing. He was convinced that the Egan
and Parnell letters were genuine before the
first article on "Parnellism and Crime"
was published by the "Times."
The witness paid Houston
$3.50 FOR THE N LETTER
of the 18th of June, and Egan's letter to
Carry. The total payments made to Hous-
ton amounted to f2,53O. He particularly
avoided asking from what source the letters
were obtained, because Houston said he
was bound to secrecy.
Witness first knew Pigott, the former
editor of the "Irishman" newspaper at
about the time the publication OF the arti-
cles on "Parnellism and Crimes" begun.
Macdonald said the Times" statement
that knives and firearms were kept in the
league Office in London. was based upon
IN Information supplied to the writer OF the
article. He did not know directly who
wrote the article, and was not bound to
Times was responsible for the statement
made in that paper. and therefore the
counsel was not entitled to demand by
force the nam,s of the contributors.
Counsel for Parneil and Egan-He was
entitled to demand the dame OF the author
of the article, because he was bound to test
the truth OF
SUCH GRAVE STATEMENTS.
The court ruled that the counsel for Par
nell is entitled to investigate the matter in
order to ascertain the foundation Of the
statement. Witness said he could not
name the writer without making inquiries.
The Parnellism and Crime" series OF
articles were not all written by one author.
Counsel for Parnell asked the witness to ID
quire who the author was.
The Court expressed doubt whether. il
the witness could not remember, he could
be required to seek information On the sub
iect.
Counsel for Parnell-"Witness could be
forced to do So"
Finally the court ruled that counsel was
not entitled to ask witness to make in
quiries, but might question him as to any
thing within his knowledge OF connection

THE GERMAN SCHOOl-BOY.


Not Quite Gyerworked One is Ac-
customed to Think.
The manner in which we spend our
leisure lacked freedom and indepead-
once. but it aboundsi in REGULATE and
good influences. The German gym
nasiast does not appear TO be as spirited
in his PLAYS as he might; he is often
charged with too great seriousness and
dignity. and this criticism is not unjust
/ admit that he is, on the whole, not as
boyIike as We should want him to be.
But he is, on the other hand, apt to be
exceedingly chiIdiike, in the good sense
of the word he is. as rule, reveren-
tial and submissive, simple and uncon-
taminated by the ways OF the world,
with which he has come little in con-
tact In spite OF the large amount Of
work he accomplishes. he is after all a
pretty hardy specimen of boy. The
one hundred and eighth regiment
which had enlisted the flower of the
Saxon youth from the University at
Leipzig, counting hundreds of students
in its lines. excelled by its vigorous
marches and valiant deeds in the war
OF $50 In the history of this war We
read of regiments that marched for
twenty-three consecutive hours only to
fall in line OF battle at the end of such
march; and the students covered
thems Ives with glory in this cam
paign.
7 Doubt however whether the Ger
man gymnasiast could do the work he
does. and prese We his good health, ii
it were not for the judicious disposition
of his leisure hours. during which he is
not only INDUCED. but carefully guard
| ed in all the details of life. Moreover,
| he is thus fitted to withstand the great
amount of liberty that IS bestowed up
on him when he is graduated and n
/ tiers the university. Among the thou
sands of university students. there are
very few who succumb to university
| freedom The habits according to
which the gymnasiast was compelled
to regulate his free hours, the self-con-
troll, the sense of duty and love for
higher aims, which he gained not only
! in the elass-roo but also during his
leisure, prevail in the end. and, as s
rule, he makes a fual success of his
university course, and becomes use
ful citizen. For he who has learned tt
