DISSENTING SUNDAY.
The frat Sunday we spent in Paris
We went 10 the Wesleyan church on
Rocbepine street, aud heard a regular
Episcopal service and duii sermon.
The second Sunday we went TO the
American Methodist church on an BERN
street, and found u very much Ike our
home churches Not many men go 10
service in this great city, but the women
are we'll represented. The general public
goes about its business a. II Sunday did
not exist. Carpenters and shoemakers
and bricklayers and thousands OF others
seem unconscious that there ought to be
day OF rest. and OF course theatres and
public gardens are in full blast.

After two weeks Of novel experiences we
came 20 this city Of Brussels, taking. IN
Boulogne on the way. The latter IS q
watering-place on the coast Of France, with
q population Of about forty thousand.
Part Of the city is built on the site OF an
ancient Roman town, Gessiacorum, De-
heye. and is surrounded by an Immense
wall. perhaps a hundred feet high In some
places. There Is also gray and time-worn
castle Of the twelfth century ana an
ancient church.

The "Conspirators " to BE Prosecuted.

iBy nglo-American cable 70 the Dtspatch-l
Dublin, October ll.-When the Magis-
trate's Court at Tipperary resssembled
this morning Crown-Prosecutor Roman
stated that the Crown had decided to
prosecute the charges of conspiracy
against all the defendants, notwithstand-
ing the fact that Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien
had of their own accord abandoned their
defence and the country. The Court had
decided that under the circumstances
such as had arisen in the present case 1t
was not necessary to stop the proceedings.
HOW MEssgs. DILLON AND o'pRIEN GOT AWAY.
DrBr,1y. October lit is definitely
known that Messrs. Dillon and OBrien
were not among the passengers who sailed
on the steamer La Borugogogne from
Hayre for New York to-day. There Is no
true information as to how they left the
country, but the theory that they went on
board a yacht and boarded steamer out
side is the favorite one.
PRESS COMMENTS on THEIR FLIGHr.
LONDON. October 1.-THE st. James Ga
zette ridicules the statement IN the Chronicle
that the Government did not desire to
keep Messrs. Dillon and OBrien in the
country or otherwise they could not have
escaped the vigilance of the police. The
PaA-Maa CARTE, the Daily Se'os, and seve-
raj provincial Gladstonean papers express
misgiyings as to the effect their flight Will
produce in England. They do not doubt
the brllliancy of the coup as far as Ireland
and America are concerned.
Warrants for the arrest of Messrs. Dillon
and O'Brien arrived at the castle this after
noon, but they were not given to the de-
tectives. No steps have been taken by the
/ Government for the arrest oil Messrs.
( Dillon and O'Brien in America.

Some people agree with the SUMS
opinions about men and things, and
some people don't; but everybody
likes to get hold of the newspaper
which is never dull and never afraid
to speak its mind.
Democrats know that for twenty
years the San has fought in the front
line for Democratic principles, never
Wavering or weakening in its loyalty
to the true interests of the party it
serves with fearless intelligence and
dtsinterested vigor. AT times opin-
ions have differed as to the best means
of accomplishing the common purpose;
it is not the SUMS fault if it has seen
further into the milestone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety is the
year that will probably determine the
result of the Presidential election of
1892, and perhaps the fortunes of the

At a Ripe Old Age.

James Monaghan, Jr., former a citi-
zen of Louisiana, d led on the 5th lost.
at the residence of his sister, Mrs. A.
r. Brown, near COchranville in Ches-
ter county, Pa. at the age of rs years,
of the grippe. Mr.. Monaghan will be
remembered by all our older citizens
as he was an active and prominent
figure in Pike county politics, in the
times that tried mems souls. In lS49
he came from Pennsylvania and set
tied In st. Louis, where he was en-
gagged in writing for the newspapers of
that city. Soon after he came to Pike
county, where he engaged in farming
for several years, but he gain turned
his talents to the pursuits OF law and
the newspaper business, and he came
To this city and purchased and edited
the Louisiana Herald and at the same
time completed his course of legal study
in the office of Hon. John B. Hender-
son. The war broke out while he was
publishing bis paper and though he
he was q union man, he doubted the
wisdom and policy of President Lin
coins course, and he criticised the
emancipation proclamation so sharply
that the extreme radicals took offense
and one night a mob broke into the
office and completely demolished 1t.
The Journal office was also visited the
same night and considerable damage
done. During this excitement Mr..
Monaghan returned so St. Louis and
soon thereafter he accompanied Gen.
Thomas l.. Price, the democratic can
dida te for governor in his state canvass,
but it was in the midst of the war and
the excitement was so intense that the
canvass was abandoned. Mr.. Mona
CHAN return9d to St. Louis and be-
came one of the editorial writers on the
St. Louis Republican. Growing tired
of newspaper life he purchased farm
of $40 acres from Col. Rroadhead and
lived there for several years and then
to st. Louis and became con-
nected with Colman's Rur0t World,
and then with the journal Of Agricut-
ture, which position he occupied un-
ii the last three years of his life, when
age and il! health compelled him to
retire. In Novembe last he returned
to bis native state and died as above
stated, Oh the 9Th of this month. He
was well read man, q French and |
Latin scholar and a brilliant newspG- |
per writer. The above incidents of
his life were taken from the West |
Chester Daily Nea0s. of the 6th.-Lou-
isi03aa Press.
