Lord Salisbury was very mysterious about
his trip to Nice. Tho special carriages marked
for his use were surrounded by small crowds
at tho Charing Cross and Victoria stations, but

day he did not appear at the Cabinet meeting
called at noon. A messenger who was sent for
him found him at breakfast in his house In

ttrely forgotten that the meeting was to be
held that day at all. When he was told that

Tho Tories have been jubilating this week
over their victory at Ayr.R rather uncertain con-
stituency. where strong local resident was
put up by the Tories to oppose the Glad
stonian. q very good n an, but one who had no
local connection. The ducal Argyll family
made every effort to secure tho Wavering
electorate, and this. combined with the strong
claims Of their local man. brought about the
defeat Of the Gladstonian. The Tories 80
rarely have any cause for satisfaction over
ELECTORAL contests that allowance may be
made for the delirious Joy they showing
upon this occasion. They have ga ned a seat
from the Liberals. but their majority now Is
only $50 compared with IT'S in 1886.

critics alike preferring TO wait for the commit |

bill Is divided into three long parts. and It is |

an elaborate attack upon the measure. and

which is TO administer these vast sums. The
bill offers gigantic bribes TO landlords and a
certain class OF tenants alike. and even those
who will vote for 1t admit that II is based upon
false principles.
A case which has been decided by two resi-
dent magistrates in Ireland this woek is arous-
Ing a great deal OF attention. Two men. Kelly
and O'Dwyer. were charged with conspiriug to
prevent Smith Barry's tenants from paying
their rents The only evidence was to the effect
that the defendants were seen conversinR with
Tho tenants. No evidence was given as to what
hey said. Not q single tenant was called as a
Wftness. Yet tho magistrates had the effron-
ery 70 sentence zach defendant to four months
hard labor.
