ATWOOD, Kan, April 5.-Judge ber-
tram sentenced Graceau Chleborad to
fifty years in the penitentiary Tor muir
der. Chleborad 3 about so years old
and will probably not live to serve his
time out.
The crime of which he was convict ed
was poisoning his younger brother JOS
eph last December. Strange to say, al
though there was proof positive OF
strychnine in the dead mans stomach
and every circumstance pointed to IRA,
ceau as the murderer, the jury returned
2 verdict of murder in the second de-
gree, acquitting Mrs. Ch!eborad, era
ceau's wife, who was indicted with
him. The Judge, however, made
amends for the jury's action by pro-
nounclng sentence that virtually
amounted 10 life Imprisonment.
= Horrible Series.
If the evidence of Chleborad's neigh
bors is to be believed, the poisoning of
Joseph Chleborad was the last of series
of murders that, if investigated Will
prove as horrible rs the infamous Ben
der crimes that were exposed IN Saoeth
county. Kansas, in 1878.
The Chleborads lived on claim that
was originally settled by Mr.. Shaw; who
anvsteriously disappeared. Evidence
indicated that he was murdered Tor ms

UNITED Ireland: The second read
ing of the Rack renters Acc0mmoda-
t1on bill was, as; might be expected,
carried by the full Coercion majority.
Argument and exposure were alike
wasted on the men who voted under
the terror of =dissolution. which to SO
many meant political extinction. Their
votes had been determined before the
eight days debate had commenced. 1t
is noteworthy that the Irish rackrenters
and their representatives in the house
including Mr.. g. w. Russell with a
single exception voted in favor Of the
bill. The representatives who com
mand the confidence Of the tenants
comprising four-ffths of the Par
iamentary representatives Of Ireland
by speech and vote strenuously opposed
Sit. This, to our mind, sufficiently dis
poses Of the aud acious pretext that the
bill is intended for the benefit Of the
tenants Of Ireland, who are as shrewl
to Judge Of their own interest as any
class III the community. But the II
Eresish bic arguments which were wasted
on the mechanical maj in the
house will have their full effect in the
country, an effect which will be fully
appreciated at the next general election.

A WELL MERITED HONOR.

Professor Harris, an Ulster man and
a graduate Of Oxford, is now member
of parliament representing one OF the
Tipperary divisions. MIR. Harrison was
practically unknown in Irish politics up
to year ago when he incurred the
ennn1ty of the English government by
assisting evicted tenants. He saw the
unfortunate tenants on Capt. Olphert's
estate thrown out on the roadside to
die. and he Immediately SEE about help
ing them. What credit did he receive
from the government for his meritori-
GUS conduct? Did he receive gold
medal? No: he did not. He was ar
rested and thrown into prison because
he helped evlcted tenants. this being a
crime under COERCION rule. He served
his sentence as many an honest patrl-
otto Irishman did before him, and now
be occupies the proud position OF a
member of parliament, " here he can
talk to Balfour and his herd whenever
he wishes. The gallant men OF Upper

Col. KINGS gift to the city of 40
acres of ground adjacent to Lake Har-
riett for park purposes, is as good as it
was unexpected. Some people perhaps
will say that it was nothing more than
he should do. That may be, but there
are several other rich men IN Minneap-
oils who are held in as high esteem as
Col. King, and who have given nothing
to the city yet. Col. Kings gift is a
handsome one indeed, and the people of
the Thirteenth ward, as we'll as the
whole city can congratulate themselves
on their luck. When this park, which
is to be known as Lyndale park, is
fixed up and put in shape, it will be one
of the grandest parks in the world.
President Lowry of the park board is
also to be thanked for his good work in
assisting Col King to arrange matters
to this end. Minneapolis is in great
luck from the parks point Of view. and
we hope tine stream Of good luck will
not cease flowing.

pie are tired of England's misrule, and
of supporting an army Of $4,000 such
brutes as followed the Stewart party.
And yet you will find hundreds of peo-
ple in this country denounc1ng the

are not thousand disturbances where

To A representative Of the New York
World, Mr.. Parnell speaks thus of
America: II have been to America
three times, and can never forget the
generous way in which the American
people have responded to our appeals
on behalf of the destitute peasantry Of
ireland when we were threatened with
starvation and famine. and how noblY
they came TO our relief. The courtesy
which received everywhere while l
was there impressed me very much. 1t
is almost impossible for us to fortell
the future of such country. The ire
mendous advance it has made in the
past are scarcelv any criterion for us. 1
fully expect that the great exhibition,
for which America is now making
preparations, will eclipse all its prede-
cessors, and will attract large numbers
of people from the various countries of
Europe, who are curious to see the
great Western Republic and observe
what she is doing"

CATHOLIC Record: Mr.. Gladstone has
been sharply criticised for voting for
the disestab Adjustment of the Scotch
Kirk, because he formerly sustained the
established Churches Of the three king
doms. But already, as far back as 1888,
che Grand Old Man acknowledged that
he saw the fallacy of his former oDin-
ions, and it was mark of true courage
to change them. In reference to Scotch
disestablishment he had said that when
the body of the Scotch people made up
their mind to disestablishment in Scot
land he would be with them. This is
the case now, and not only in Scotland.
but in Wales also the established
Churches include but a minority Of the
people. 49,.

suggest that the United States govern

covering this amount. They want

SUPT. BRACKETS REPORT.

We were glad to see that SuDt.
Bracket had the backbone to come out
as he did in his report TO the police COM
mission, on the police officers who were
concerned in the White damage case.
If the jury had acquitted Capt. Ness
and the officers who accompanied him
in the patrol wagon, and brought in a
verdict against officer Mcleod, fair
minded people would at least have
thought that the jury had considered
the case on its merits. But when we
see them return verdict against those
who had nothing whatever to do with
the trouble, we are forced to confess,
like Supt. Brackett, that prejudice die
tated shat verdict. Wequestion whether
even Mcleod was to blame if the facts
az presented by Mr.. Brackett in his re-
port were true, and NO doubt they were,
as it was evident that he investigated
the matter thoroughly from the splen-
did report he made. In the face OF
preiudiced public, and the glory that
some Of our newspapers were taking to
themselves over the outcome OF the
trial, we cannot but commend Mr..
Brackett for his able and fearless re-
port. Many man if placed in his po-
sition would have catered to the public
and have recommended the discharge Of
the officers in question, but he did not.
He examined the case in all It's beings,
and having arrived az conclusion, was
not afraid to express. his opinion. If
Minneapolis had more men Of Supt.
Brackets grit it would be we'll for our
city.

II THE Chicago Citizsn in discussing
the Irish question rs far as America is
concerned says: 'sThe Irish Americans
are eaten up here by the cancer of fac
ton. The different sections Of the sup
posed friends Of Ireland seem, at the
present time, more DESTROYS Of per-
scouting one another than Of fighting
tho common foe. 1t would seem to be
useless to ask them to do such a conf
nonsense thing as sink their mutual
prejudices and unite for the triumph Of
the cause. Each would seem to be
afraid that the other might get too
much credit, or that, with union. he
might lose his personal following. and
with it his political capital" The
Citizen is fully aware That there are
thousands of honest men in the differ
ing organizations, who have no axe
whatever to grind, and who love Ire
land for Ireland's sake, and not for
their own advancement, but they are
not, generally speaking, the men who
come to the front. Very often when
we get honest and patriotic men at the
bead of Irish organizations. we are not
satisfied. We must pick them to pieces,
misinterpret everv word and act, and,
finally, morally cruelty them, This
certainly is not as it should be. The
surest way to secure personal unpopu-
larity In America is to become the head
Of an Irish organization. A man may
reach that eminence with the reputation
of saint, and feel devoutlY thankful
if he does not descend from it with a
stained, If not permanently blighted,
character. Truly are we an amiable
and God-fearing people! The wonder
is not that we have been defeated, but
that we are not obliterated. And all is
due to the devil Of faction. The Citizen
does not claim to be exempt from its
share of the Celtic weakness, but, at
least. it would make any sacrifice to
make Irishmen hate each other less and
the traditional enemy more.
