AN OVATION TO PARNELL.
Grand Banquet Given the Irish
Leader.
HE DEIIyERs A STIRRING SPEECH

and Congratulating Him-Parncn Al
iudcs to Haifaur as a Mushroom. Here
To-day and Gone Tomorrow.
LONDON, Marsh "A banquet was given
by the Eighty club last evening in honor Of
Lord Spencer MIR Lockwood presided
Lord Rosebeiy, Sir William Vernon Har-
court, MIR Parrell, Mr. Morley, Sir Charles
Russell and other prominent gentlemen were
present. Mr.. Parnell received an ovation.
Lord Spencer, IN responding to the toast to
his health, congratulated Mr. parnell upon
the yindication Of his character against at
taclSs which In vehemence aud wickedness
surpassed any that had ever been made
against a living man. They admired Mr.
Parnell's forbearance, dignity and patience,
qualities 50 worthy in a great leader, and
they wanted 70 see fun reparation done lie
thought the government would have diff
Guilty in clearing themselves Of the charge Of
completely with The Times He dealt nc
length with Irish affairs, and Expressed con-
fldtnce that Mr. Gladstone would live to
carry an improved home rule bill.
In response TO loud cries for a speech Mr..
Parnell rose 10 his feet and was greeted with
enthusiastic cheers He referred 10 Lord
Spencer as the herald OF Mr.. Gladstoneis
policy Of Cancellation, and said that his opin-
ion was worth more than the Judgment OF a
hundred mushrooms like Balfour, a man who
was here today and who would be gone 10
morrow, who brought to the task Of govern
ing Ireland not single characteristic OF
craftsmanship or genius and whose only OBJ
ject was to remain in office as long as posi-
bic. Lord Spencer, after all his experience,
had acknowledged the truth Of what he him
self maintained, that the only way to govern
Ireland within the constitution is to allow her
to govern herself in all matters that do not
interfere with the well being Of the rest Of
the empire, with which Ireland Is indissoln-
bly, linked.
Il admit Mr.. Parneli continued, "that
another way exists-a way which is untried
as yet and probably never will be tried-in
which some present success might be gained
not By Bnlfour's bastard, semi-constitutional,
semi-coercive method, but by method Of
pure despotism You might find among
yourselves some great Englishman or Scotch
man who would go TO Ireland lher parlia-
mentary representation having been taken
from herr and do justice to her people, despite
the complaint Of Irish landiordisn Such a
method, however, must be outside Of the con-
stitution altogether, and your Irish governor
must have full power 70 impartally deal with
lord and peasant alike That in my iudg-
ment, has always been the only alternative
concession to our reasonable demands
Lord Roseberry, in proposing a vote 81
thanks, also congratulated Mr. Parnell

The New French Naturalization
 Law.

Washington, August 5.-A com muncation has been received at the Department of State from Minister Reid inclosing copy of the new law on French nationality recently passed by the Chamber. Under provisions of this act the son of a naturalized French American who happens to be born in France Is French. The son of a Frenchman born in the United States, is French and as the law is silent as to any limitation in this respect there may be according to this doctrine many Frenchmen born in the United States-a doctrine which, if 1t were enforcel by the other European na- tions, would make every native born American the subject of an- other country.
 The naturalization of a French man who has not complied with military laws is void, unless he has beforehand secured the authoriza- ton of his Government.
 Native Americans of French par entage are not, therefore, Americans in the eye of the new statute, and are liable to military service in France.
 With reference to the right of be- ing domiciled in France, the new law states that all the permission given heretofore to that effect will expire in five years from the date of the present law, and will not be re- newed in favor of those who, with in that period, have not applied for naturalization. This stipula- tion affects seriously all the Amer 'icans doing business ofany kind in France.

More printers are in the House of Representatives than members of any other single occupation or

Senator Plumb was first printer, then editor, and then a banker, Gal finger, of New Hampshire, was a printer, but afterwards he studied medicine. Farquhar, of New York is not only printer, but was twice president of the International Ty- pographical Union.

WOman'S Place in Nature.

MT. Grant Allen propounds in The Forum a new view of"Woman's Place in Nature" "The males" he says "are the race; the females are merely the sex told off 10 recruit and produce it. All that is distinct lively human is man-the field, the ship, the mine, the workshop; all pthat is truly woman is merely re- productive-the home, the nursery, the schoolroom." "This very ne- cessity for telling off at least con siderable number of the women for the arduous duties of human ma ternity prevents the possibility of woman, as such, ever being really in any deep sense the race. It is human to till, to build, to navigate to manufacture and these are the functions that fall upon man. " "The males have built up human civilization and have made the great functionally acquired gains in hu- man faculty, while the females have acted as mere passive transmitters of these male acquisitions"

President Harrison the other day rewarded with an office detective spy named Furlong who had ren- dered him a personal service, and the Governor of California, at the instance of Mrs. Harrison, had just pardoned convicted forger and lifelong criminal. During the late campaign this forger wrote hu- morous campaign song of great merit. There may be nothing but a little display of sentimentality in all this, but it really doesn't sound well.-N. Y.
