THE POPE AND IRELAND.
A RumOr that Englishmen are Working
 Against Archbishop Walsh.

A Rumor that Englishmen are Working
 Against Archbishop Walsh.
 LONDON, Oct. 6.-Advices from Rome state that the British Ministry, through its friends in that city, is bringing all the influence possible to bear upon the Pontiff against the bestowal of e Cardinals hat upon Archbishop Walsh, of Ireland. The effect of these appeals Is not known, but it is said that the Pope is deeply perplexed, as between the British Government and the Irish people.
 It is claimed, on behalf of the British Government, that the elevation of the Archbishop at this time would be an expression of approval on the part of Rome of the prelate's course in sano- tioning the National League agitat ion and the plan of campaign, which have heretofore been condemned by the Holy See.
 It is rumored in Rome that the oppo- nents of Archbishop Walsh have ob- tained an assurance that he will not be promoted for some time to come, If ever.

Birchall Worried More for Her Than for
 Himself. ~. --, ,s.-
 WOODSTOCK, Ont, Oct. 8.-The jail officials say that yesterday BirchaIl showed more signs of breaking down than on any day since his conviction. He spoke of his wife several times and appeared to be grieving more for her than himself. He dreads the parting with her. This morning he wasmore cheerful, but his oldi nonchalant and joculRr manner has given way to 8 quieter and more thoughtful dsmeanor. Those who come in contact with him daily say that a marked change has come over him and that he begins to appreciate the solemnity of his posi- tion. Any little incident occurring in the jail-yard, that comes under his notice, however, Amuses him as much as ever.
 The strict watch put upon him alter his sentence is still maintained and will be until his execution.
 No one is allowed to see him, and he will have but few visitors except his counsel and spiritual adviser, when he asks for one.
 Mrs. Birchall's health is improving. She has not seen her husband since the last day of the trial and may not do so until ljust prior to her departure for England, which it Is understood her frien ds have finally induced her to make the latter part of thisiweek.

The Noted Infldal Refused the Use of
 Two Halls in Philadelphia.
 PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6.-L. N. Baker, private secretary to Col. Robert G. 1ngersoll, has encountered some diff cultiss in his attempt to secure 6 suitable hall in Philadelphia for the colonel's lecture on "Art and Morality. |"
 The lecture iS designed to be @ testi- monial benefit to Walt Whitman, and art and morality are to be discussed, with the aged poets words as Q text. When application was made to the authorities of the Academy of Music, Secretary Bonnaffon, after cOmmuni- eating with Alfred G. Baker, president of the company, refused to let the Academy for this use, on the ground that Col. 1ngersoll could not be allowed to speak there.
 MT. Baker then applied for the Union League Club annex, whilh Col. Wei dershcim declined to place at his dis posal. Finally, Horticultural Hall was engaged and the lecture was arranged for Got. S1.
 Alfred G. Baker said that it had been a principle of the Academy Company throughout his presidency that no person should use their property for the purpose of advocating infdelityi and atheism.
 On inquiry at the Union League Club mex was not commonly let to other than club members, and that the re- fusal might have been on that ground.

Gas Workers Fear Discharge.

s LONDON, Oct. 6.-Three thousand gas workers met at Woolwich last evening and formally declared that the suspI- cions of the Gas Light and Coke Com pany that they intended to strike were absolutely unfounded. Resolutions were adopted deprecating the action of the company in erecting barracks for contemplated new employees, and en securing the presence of the military in anticipation of a strike. The truth is that the men are afraid that these preparations are for different purpose than Is announced. They are appre- henSive lest an attempt is about to be made to force all union men to leave the oompany's employ, and thus break up the organization.

 ter Begun at Asbury Park, N. J.
 AsBURx PARK, N. J., Oct. 8.-Ex- Judge Samuel F. Hendrickson, of Noa. mouth County, and Wm W. Conoyer, two of the wealthiest men in the county, have brought suit in the Su.. preme Court against Henry Kroehl, i'm porter of brisElSs in New York; A. E. Buchanan & Co.,, extensive lumber dealers, and Samuel D. Ludlow, of Hoboken, N. J., for the amount of promissory notes held by them as en- dorsers, which are claimed to be for geries.
 These notes are the ones upon which Frank Patterson, of this place, was indicted seven years ago for having uttered.
 Forty-one indictments for forging were found against Patterson. Upon many of them he was convicted and sentenced to ten years imprisonment.
 The decision in the case was reversed by the Supreme Court, and three trials ensued, in each of which the jury dis agreed, whereupon all of the indict- ments were quashed, and Patterson was released from jail and is now living here.
 As the State was unable to prove the cases against Patterson, Conover and Hendrickson, who held these notes as endorseos, together with about $100, 900 worth more of the alleged forged notes, will endeavor to collect them all.
 Many of the notes and cheeks are drawn upon somo of the most promi. nent business men in New Jersey.
 At the time of Patterson's arrest he was manager of the Grand Oper . House here and had several theatrical troupes on the road. Conover and Hendrickson were his packers and had all the notes discounted.

Actual cost of loans for 97 months, with the advantage of pay ing off the loan in small monthly install ments, $2S5,00.
 The shares will likely mature within 100 months, which would consequently decrease the cost of the loan.
 The borrower pays the cost of his loan in monthly installments. On loan of $1, ,OOO he pays $10 per month on the principal, and S3 per month for the use of the loan. But it should be considered that during the 97 months the borrower has saved the payment of rent, which would surely have amounted to greater sum than the actual cost of the loan.

The Great Secret
 Much Talked-Of Concern,

Perhaps there is no house in Connecticut whose success and methods of doing business have been commented upon more favorably than that of the Water bury Furniture company. Here is the secret which we have never made public before. We tried it simply as an experiment. and felt certain that the people would "catch on" if it proved to be good thing.
 The merchants of Waterbury began to wonder why it was that two thirds of the newly. married couples invariably bought their goods from us after visit ing all the othes dealers They thought it was our acknowledged low prices, Nut We knew better and kept very quiet until we saw how our idea worked. NOW, we give our secret to the public, because our reputation is established for originality of design.
 Many years ago, in going around to the different stores, we noticed that there was very little difference in the styles and designs of the goods. The designs ali appeared to be alike. We went at once to New York and engaged the ser vices of a first-class designer and started immediately for the West. We gave our own special designs tO the manu- facturer, and that is why you will al- ways see something in our stores different from what every other dealer has shown you.
 Nobody Wants What Every One
 Else Has Now. We have found our plan to be n novel one and therefore pronounced success. We have a great run on our SlO Plush Bed Lounges.
 65 Different styles of ParlOr Suits. S5 Different styles of Chamber Suits. Those S32 and $95 Solid Antique Sets arc going like hot oakes. We are the largest and cheapest house in Western Connecticut.
 Our Stoves and Ranges are tEe best in the world
 Ask for our Quaker Jr, Shaker and First National Range.
 Parlor Stoves in endless Variety. Our Undertaking Department is complete with a full line of Robes, Habits, Gas kets, etc. Perfect satisfaction guaran teed. The public know and conced' that we are the BEST.
