h Irish

LONDON, September 19.-The News
says Balfour has met Ireland's fam
inc appeal after his fashion, and has
committed an act of stupendous folly.
We are slow to believe him stupid
enough to desire to prevent their
mission to America because others are
going in their stead and will
meet with a splendid reception.
1t is difficult indeed to assign any
rational motive for the arrest.
The Chronicle says: The Parnell-
ties taunts regarding Balfour's in
difference have at last drawn the
badger. He probably intended to
avert the disorder l n Ireland. for it is
unlikely that he wanted to prevent
Dillon and O'Brien from going and to
send Parnell or others to America.
The Telegraph justifies the arrest.
1t says: Parnellites are becoming
more daring in the face Of the sup
posed supinene ss of government. The
Times says: 1.-The only cause for sur
prise is that arrests were delayed 80
long. Resolute action of government
will be eagerly welcomed by all clear
headed friends of civil order" The
Standard says: The prosecution has
nothing to do with speeches delivered
elsewhere than at T%ipperrary. The
coup was admirably managed and
prevented the arrested from exercis-
ing their well-knOwn skill at oppor-
tune disappearance.

Barn Burners.

There is an incendiary at work near
Oreana, west of Monticello. The
large barns of Charles Schiller, Mrs.
Lavinia Myers, Samuel Boneham and

small insurance on them, and in some
cases none.

Friends Creek, Mason county, have
"a fire-bug who has set fire to four
barns within the past three weeks,
and is still at liberty. The sufferers
are Charles Shuler. About a month

THE COURTS.
Doings in the Halls of Justice.

BeforeiJudge Noonan today was the case
of the state VS.. Mamie Lister, charged with
adultery with one Adolph Schwab. The
case grew out of the divorce case of Mrs.
Schwab VS.. Adolph Schwab, which is on
the docket of this court.
The evidence before the jury was very
nasty and showed to what depths a man
may descend sometimes and plunge his
family, with him. Mrs. Dreyfus,
Schwab. testified at length to the
relations existing between Schwab and
Miss Lister, telling how he kept his wife
and mistress in the same house,
in adjoining rooms, and when a child was
borne him by his mistress, how the wife,
and even Mrs. Dreyfus visited the woman
etc, etc, and when the child died he in
vited all the family to the funeral. The
case does not lack dramatic or romantic
interest, and is not yet concluded.
LOttie Baum, the cyprian who tried to
kill Lulu Stanley, appeared before the
court to give bond. but could not do so, on
account of the Lister case.
A new suit, Geo. +. BleSSe versus NJ.
VOlino. for punishment, has been filed.
No probate court was held this morn

The Georgia Campaign.

"~ wv
ATLANTA, Ga, September TO- Gov.
Gordon's denunciation of Col. Macune,
head of the Farmers Alliance, and
Col. L. F. Livingston, of the Georgia
State Alliance, has so accumulated
the differences between the governor
aud the farmers that his defeat is
now almost a foregone conclusion.
The papers are filed with attacks
upon the governors business abilities
to such an extent that the campaign
now promises to degenerate into one
of ud.slipging. Early in the cam
paign Governor Gordon announced
his readiness to speak in the different
congressional districts in favor of the
democratic nominees. This offer is
o antagoniZed by the spectacle of
Gordon's friends, in counties where
the legislative nominees are opposed
to him, bringing out independent can
didates with the view of gaining
votes in the legislature. Those who
have been keeping tally of the legis-
lative nominations declare that there
is a majority of ten SO far against
Gordon. This makes it necessary to
run enough Gordon independents to
change the result. The effort to raise
the old soldier feeling so far has been
unsuccessful. The state election takes
place on the first Wednesday in
October, and the legislature meets
n month later.

A Widow Whose Husband Is Alive.

A Widow Whose Husband Is Alive.
New York Correspondent Boston Herald.
You may smile WREN | tell you so,
but there is a man living in a fash
ionable apartment up town who has
actually gazed upon his widow. L
don't mean some one else's widow
whom people call his, but actually
his own widow. This favored mortal
has not only seen his widow, but has
photographed her. Nay, still more
astonishing, on the back of this pho
tograph you may read four obituary
notices cut from New York papers
and pasted there by the man himself.
Mr.. Carl H., a prominent art dealer
and importer OF oil paintings, finds it
necessary to make several rips West
every year to visit his rich customers
in Chicago, Cincinnati and st Louis.
While on such q journey last spring,
a train which Mr.. H. had come very
near taking p~layfully skipped the
track and rolled down q hundred
foot embankment. Several were
killed, and Mrs Carl H, the young
wife, was terribly shocked to read
her husbands name in the list. She
teIegraphed to the company to u
the body to be embalmed and shipped
to her, she being physically unable
to withstand the fatigue of the jour
ney.
Now, Mrs. H, is a charming blonde,
with hair of rich gold and skin like
mother.of-pearl. To be sure, she
would look lovely in Widows weeds,
and forthwith betook herself to Nine.
Ms and ordered q complete mourn
ing costume to be ready In two days.
Scarcely had the dress, bonnet, etc.,
reached the house when q telegram
arrived from her lord and master, de-
tanned at Chicago, announcing that
he would start on the limited that
morning.
Great heavensl Carl had not been
smashed up at all. 1t was ONE
wrong man that had been embalmed.
and she now had the corpse ON her
hands, to say nothing of the widows.
outfit. Fortunately, just as the rail-
road people were about to ship the
smashed-up Carl to her, his own peo-
pie appeared and proved property.
But the widows outfit? 1t had cost

was to be done? At any rate, Carl
must not know Of it; SO, posting down
to Nine. Ms, she gave strict orders
to send no bill to the house, and
promised to call with the cash in the
course of a few weeks. This was en-
tirely satisfactory, but Nine. NJ. forgot
to warn her book-keeper, and that
machine-like person not only sent a
statement on the lst of the month,
but as was her custom, directed it to
Mr.. Carl H..
"In heavens name, Blanche, what
does this mean?" he asked.
"Why, dearie, you know when they
t~elegraphed that you had been
smashed up, and the newspapers all
said that you were dead, I went and
and"
"Where is it?" stammered the sur
prised Carl.

Did Carl fly into a passion and &C
cuse the poor girl of being a cold
hearted and calculating woman? Not
he! He merely said: Get it out,
darling, and put it on. / want to try
