LONDON, Oct, 25.-The Parnell Com.
mission resumed its work yesterday.
Biggar, NJ. P. made an address in his
behalf. The Times counsel will speak
after Davitt. Davitt declared when
Biggsr had concluded, that although he
(Davitt) was no longer Feniap, if the
condition of Ireland was the same that il
was twenty. Eve years ago. he would be
q Fenisn again. Some aims the Fenians
have fulfilled already. The National
League, based on the same patriotic
spirit. was fast removing barriers to
giving justice to Ireland. He denied
the statement of Patrick Delaney, q con.
victed dynamiter. that the amnesty
movement was of Fenian control.
He accused Delaney of willful and
deliberate perjury. No agent, he de.
clared, had done more to keep alive the
national antipathy of the Irish in America
than the brutal language used by the
Times with regard to the determination
Of the people of Ireland resulting from
the great famine.

4 Hint for Dramatic Authors.

The late Miss Mary Booth, the edit
ress of Harper's Bazaar, was not given
to jesting, because she was woman of
serious mind, but she had dry humor
that was irresistible. I remember a
young western lady came on to New
York one winter, bringing ive-act
drama which she hoped to sell for UNI
told thousands. After bounding man
sgers for months and getting only po-
lite refusals, she said to Miss Booth one
day:
Don't you think there is some way
in which could have my play put on
the stage?''
''Oh, yes" said Miss Booth with a
twinkle in her eye.
"Do tell me how cried the aspirant
for the laurels of Sardou
:'Why, ground up. It could be used
as snow storms"
What the young dramatist said after
that / am not informed, but it must
have been dreadful remark. Town

Instances where legators have
thoroughly despised their legatees
and limited accordingly in their wills
are quite numerous. Aylett Stow. a

"And lastly, be you sure to lay
out five guineas for the purchase of

nevolent hand of the person who
saved him from perishing in the

that money; and that you do, in

have frequent opportunities of con-

dWells man who has recently wed a

eccentric whim of the second wife to
to have picture painted wherein she
and the first wife were represented
as standing together with their arms

When the third wife came into power
she was at first somewhat puzzled to
know what to do with this extraordi-
nary production of combined affection
and art. With genuine woman's wit,
however, she hit upon the idea of
having the piece worked over, and
with what result may be judged from
a conversation in regard to the
picture which took place between the
bride and one of her wedding callers.
The visitor inquired if the picture rep
resented relatives of the family.
''No, not relatives, " the wife replied.

Englishmen as Hus bands.

Iwish few American women could
have English husbands for about one
monJh. They would then realize
what it means to take all the money
that Charles has got, while Charlie
laughs at your cuteness and then
laughs still more when at midday you
call him up on the telephone, ask
him if he loves you, tell him you have
seen a bonnet that will make him
think you are Is years old, and repeat
that delicious day when you first met
him, and won't he please send you a
check for it?
The English husband is not built
this way. His creed is that women
should have as little money as posi-
BILE, as few desires, and then look as
we'll as women who have more money
and crafty all their wishes. The
Englishman as a man is most interest

The Speech Was Not Made.

A man who gets the reputation as a
good after dinner speaker is usually
one who has power to tell story
well. 1t may not always be a very new
story or a very witty one, but if it is
we'll told it is almost certain to be sue
cessful at a dinner party. One thing
is fatal in such an attempt-prosiness
Sometimes, however, a success is won
in not telling a story when it is ex-
pccted, in not making a speech when
people suppose that one is coming. A
certain famous and witty Englishman
visiting America, was asked to make
an after dinner speech at the ladies'
night of a Boston club. It was lit
erary man, SO it was expected very
naturally that he would glorify his
profession and that of his hearers. In
stead of doing so he rose gravely and,
with serious glance at the f..uits of
the desserts still on the table before
him, began: Ladies and gentle
men, he repeated, 81 come not here
to talk
Ali eyes were turned toward him.

A Chicken Eating Cater.

It is the custom of alligators to move
across the country from one river to
another. The purpose of this migra-
ton is not learned. They go alone
and not in couples or droves as has
sometimes been reported. A short
time ago monster alligator started
from the Hillsboro River to lake
back Of Tampa, Fla. He passed
through the Central part of the town
and finally reached the back yard of
T.. A. Wilson. The reptile found him
self in a flock Of chickens and began
at once to make a meal of them. This
raised such commotion in the poul-
try yard that Mr.. Wilson's attention
was attracted to it and he went out to
investigate. He discovered the sau-
rian, and with a we'll directed shot hit
him in the eye and killed him. The
big saurian was then cut open and
skinned. In his back, which is more
like a piece of white leather than
anything else, except an ALI
gators back, were found large
number of bullets which had passed
through the scales and embedded
themselves in the backbone, where
they had become fl attened out and evil
IDENTIFY caused the reptile no uneasi-
ness. When opened, the stomach Of
the alligator was curiosity. A num-
Der of pieces of tin showed that he had
enjoyed a tin can lunch, while from
the fact that he had swallowed a beer
bottle, it appeared that he was not a
prohibitionist. There were two small
fish, nearly whole, and a pair of baby's
shoes. II was not known whether he
had swallowed the child or whether
he had found the shoes where the
child had placed them and made a
meal of them, but every mother who
saw the tiny shoes shuddered and
clasped her own child tightly to her.
It will probably be never known how
the shoes came there; but it may be
that some mothers heart is sad over
the loss of the little one who wore the
tiny shoes. The alligator was skinned
and the skin sent to the tannery. The
reptile measured nine feet and seven
inches in length. st. Louis Globe
