REMINDERS OF HOOD.

Death of a Lady Who Know the Poet We'll
 in Her Youth.
 Word comes of the death of Miss Isa- bella Hood, of Dundee. a distant rela- tive of the illustrious Thomas Hood. When materials bearing upon that poets early connection with the city were being collected Miss Hood was able to throw most important light upon the subject She remembered his resi- dence when a mere lad with his aunt in Nethergate, his visits to Patrick Gard iner in Overgate, as well as his journey to his friends in Errol. She also recol- lected distinctly Hoods being brought by his aunt to her fathers house in Murraygate, and described him as being a vivacious boy, full of Hveliness and fun. The visit was repeated, and Tom had many 8 scamper over the meadows and wards on the maltster's pony. Miss Hood also spoke of the poets second visit to Dundee. accompanied by his son (the late Tom Hood, editor of Fun in the autumn of 1s43 When Mrs. Keay, the poets maternal aunt died at Tay- port, she gave to Miss Hood a number of interesting holograph letters of the poet, with a recommendation that they should be preserved These letters and other mementoes of Hood were pre- sented to the museum of the city sew eral years ago by Miss Hood, to give the general public an opportunity of in- specting them. She was also in posses sion of an interesting memento of the Camperdown family. About the end of the last century, it is stated, the poets uncle was engaged as a $ator in the family of the future hero of Camper down, who then resided at Lundie House. Captain Duncan was so pleased with the manner in which the tutor had discharged his duties that he presented to him sets of his own silver garter and shoe buckles, and the family gave him Bible and pencil case. At the death of the, tutor these gifts came into the possession of Mrs. Keay, her sister. When Hood visited Mrs. Keay at Tay- port in 1S43 she gave the pencil case as gift to his son. The Bible and three of the buckles were sent to the poets family in London, and the fourth buckle was given, along with the letters, to Miss Hood.-Chicago Evening Post.

PARNELL'S ORDEAL.

The Conservatives Believe the O'Shea
 Trial Will Injure the IINsh Leader.
 LONDON, Got. 2s.-The Conservatives do not conceal the exultation with which they look onward to the OShea divorce trial, and openly proclaim their belief that the effect of the trial upon MT. ParnSll will be similar to that of the famous scandal in which Sir Charles Dilke was involved and which drove the latter out of public life.
 Mir. Parnelrs friends, on the other hand, assert that he has full answer for every charge, and that, at the most, nothing more than indiscretion can be proven. Captain O'Shea states that he will push the case with energy, as he means to prove to the world the falsity of the allegations that he has been acting without just cause and with 6 malicious purpose to asperse MT. Par nell.

HIGH TARIFF. HIGH PRICES.

HIGH TARIFF, HIGH PRICES.
 The Mckinley bill increases the cost of every article of clothing, adds to the ex- pense of every necessity and enhances the price of every comfort. The leading tailors inform the public that clothing will be more expensive, and dealers in every other article of necessity are send ing out notices of an impending ad- vance in prices. These are the evil ef- fects of the Mckinley bill, because it is Q self.evident proposition that increased cost without compensatory advance in resources is an evil. Now has anyone heard of an advance in wages in the protected industries affected by the Nc, Kiniey bill? According to information received at this office, one firm which has literally contributed to the corrup tion fund sent into McKinley's district to buy votes, has actually reduced wages and provoked a strike since the passage of the bill. The truth iS that the bill cannot and never was expected to increase wages. It was designed to add to the profits of manufacturers, ir order to reimburse them for the cost oi electing President Harrison, and the people were not taken into Considera tion. This fact is beginning to dawr upon the public mind.

LoEDoS. December 8.-The Cork
Herald, referring 10 Parnelps determi-
nation not to abandon the Irish leader
shin, says that unless the united people
force him to retire the result will be dis
order and disunion in the party and evils
to the country the end of which the pres
ent generation will not see.
The Cork Eraminer says Pernells
English career is closed. The Examiner
thinks Parnell has overratsd his ability
TO secure the return OF men TO Parlis-
ment TO take the places Of members OF
the party who oppose his leadership.
Mr.. Parnell will be accompanied on his
coming tour through Ireland by the
most active OF his followers. Before his
departure from England for Ireland he
will issue a manifesto 10 the people OF
the latter country. II will be signed by
all his supporters, including Carew, who
hos heretofore been regarded as doubt
ful III his allegiance.
PAaSELL GOES TO IRELAND.
LoSpoN. December S.-Mr. Farnell
goes to Ireland TO morrow. He will de-
liver a political address in Leinster Hall,
dublin. on Thursday, and afterwards
proceed TO Cork, Longford, and else
where. The Healy Gaelic Athletic Asso-
citation have adopted resolution re-
questing Healy to abandon his present
position and support Parnell.
Parnell will send a mission TO the
United States for the purpose of placing
before the American people his side OF

would not be less than 500, 00O. They
may reach $500 600. Ofcourse, nothing
positive is known about the firms assets,
but the most sanguine do not hope for
more than fifty cents on the dollar. The
whole city is restless and excited. The
merchants, even those who have not lost
directly, say the damage TO their trade
will be considerable, as so many private
individuals had deposits in the bank.

WASHINGTON, December She Ad-
ministration people and Republicans IN
Congress are much alarmed over the
financial situation. and it is understood
that conferences have been held looking
to a speedy attempt TO relieve as far as
possible the stringency of the MONEY
market. 1t is probable that the Presi-
dent may send q special message to Con-
gress on the subject tomorrow or some
time this week.
Radicals like Hoar nnd Spooner hate
the idea Of having TO put aside the infa-
nous force bill in the Senate, even to
legislate for business interests; but 1t
looks as il they will have to. They are
apprehensive that il the monstrous mea-
sure is once side-tracked they may not
have chance again this session to call
it mp. The proposition Of those who
claim that something must be done to
relieve the money market is to pass a
bill for the purchase of more silver bull
lion, and Sherman's bill is intended by
its author TO prevent any contraction Of
the currency.
