\ LONDON LETTER


Judge Bergman has rec,ived a long
aud very interesting letter from Mrs.
Frank A. Kemp who has been in Eng
land with her husband for the past two
months. Her experiences are narrated
with much piquancY and will be read with
great interest by many friends. One Of
Ter early experiences was in dining with
"a real live lord and LADY," Mr.. and Mrs.
Kemp being entertained at dinner by Mr..
Horace Pluukett. well known here. aud
meeting there Lord and Lady NJ. Il
must say" Mrs. Kemp writes, Il felt
rather nervous at the idea of meeting =
real live lord, but we found both Lord
aud Lady NJ. anything but awe-inspiring
and the pleasautest sort Of people. |
went out to dinner on Lord Ms arm.
As he is almost as tall as DR.. Rafter, with
an enormous bead, YOU can imagine that
| didn't cut much OF a figure beside him. "
One of the pleasantest experiences was
met in attending a royal concert at Albert
Hall where the divine Patti sang. There
was a very brilliant audience in attend
auce. The seating capacity of the hall is
between 1000 and 5000 and not a seat
was unoccupied.
The weather during the Ascot races was
very fine Nothing could have been
more delightful" writes Mrs. Kemp,
than our five mile drive every morning to
the race course through the queens park
one of the iovelIest drives in ENGLAND.
The Ascot meeting is considered the most
fashionable in England and the course IL
opened by the Prince and Princess OF
Wales and their retinue driving down the
entire length OF the course in state, at
I tended by Positions aud Outriiers and
all that pertains tn royalty 1t was a
lovely sight and we had a splendid view
of ali Of them. The prince raised his hat
Just opposite us aud we had a good op-
portunity OF seeing how very bald be is.
Thursday is called Cup Day" and is the
day in which every fashionable person in
England goes to Ascot in his or her very
best aud most correct clothes. The result
| of this custom makes one of the most
brilliant sights in the world ard some OF
the lady's dresses, if cut low, would DO
for ball dresses, SO handsome are they. |
think | may safely say that there were
zone at Ascot who enjoyed themselves
more than we dill.
"A most charming Sunday finished up
the week lun. First we went to church
where, ON this Sunday every year, the
Prince OF Wales u in his uniform as
colonel of the Second Life brigade at the
head of his troops. With him came the
royal family and we hal another good
look at them. The aud played instead
Of the organ and altogether it was a
great sight. The rest OF the day was
spent on the river in company with thous-
ands of other people who lined the wat
ers with all sorts of crafts that made such
a gala day OF it that into no ones head
could have come the idea it was Sunday.

EXCITED MEXICANS.
Making Capital of the Proceedings Against
an Editor Who Libeled Mexican
Citizen and Official.

LAREDO, WEBB COUNTY, Ten, Aug. -
The refugee colony from Mexico, who re-
side III this city. are greatly excited again,
and are making much alleged capital out of
the proceedings recently instituted against
one Cantrio Cara, editor of a Spanish
paper published in Palito Blanco, Duval
county, called the 'El Libre Pensader, -
the Free Thinker a week ago he began
the publication of sculrilOuS article pur-
porting to be history of the past life and
antecedents of Gen. Bernardino Reyes,
governor of the state of Nuevo Leon,
Mexico, who resides in Monterey. and who
is one of the best friends of the American
residents in Mexico and who has done more
to advance the interests of American enter
prise in Mexico than any other Mexican Of
fetal on the frontier. The article mentioned
attacks the character of Reyes mother, and
Is filthy IN the extreme. Proceedings
We're Immediately instituted against
him, and an officer was sent from
here after him. A bogus report was then
started by the friends of Cara in this city
to the effect that an attempt would be made
to abduct CARA from the custody of the Of
tcers and take him across to Mexico. II is
the general opinion here that this
report was circulated in order to
create sympathy for Cara. A posse
left here this morning to see that no such
attempt was successful. Public opinion is
in favor of enforcing the law in this case,
especially as it is but another case where
renegade from Mexico comes into the
United States territory and libels and
abnses citizens of neignboring and

were to have arrived tonight, but did not

Starving in Some Districts of India.

MADRAS, Aug. ALI fears of failure of
crops in those portions of India where rains
have fallen are dispelled. There has been
no rain fall in the Chingleput and North
Arcol districts in this presidency and all
hopes OF averting famine have been aban-
doned. The heat is unprecedented. The
standing grain and other crops have sue
stumbled to the long drouth and are all with
cred and burned. Already the effects of the
scarcity of food are being felt, and there is
great suffering among the inhabitants.
Many deaths from starvation have been
reported. 1t is impossible to get food for
the cattle, pasture lands being devoid of
grasses and in many places streams have
dried up, rendering it impossible to get
water for them. Horses, cows. donkeys
and other livestock are dying in large num-
bers every where in the districts. 1t is
not only the poorer classes of people that
are suffering from scarcity of food. Many
natives of high cast are making application
to the authorities for relief to keep them
selves and families from starving. The dis
trict of Chingleput contains an area of 2153
square miles, and according to the figures
of the latest census obtainable, that of 1871,
has 93S, lS4 persons. North Arcol contains
-, 145 square miles within its boundaries
and the population is over 2,000, 900 souls.

Dillon the Leader.

Dillon, while he reconferred increasingly
with the Parnellites with view of ending
the schism in the Irish party, has found
them resolutely opposed to Parnells re-
tirement as the condition of reunion.
Several intimated their intention TO
withdraw from public life during he ten
ure of their places in the house of commons.
They would adhere to their old leader.
The meeting of Messrs. Dillon, O'Brien,
Mccarthy and Sexton to deliberate
on the future leadership of the party re-
suited i'll an agreement that Dillon
should be formally invested with
the leadership when parliament reassem'
bles. Meanwhile Mccarthy will be the
nominal head, though Dillon will be the vir-
tual leader. This arrangement settles the
rumors ascribing to Sexton the intention to
contest the presidency of the party.
Lord Salisbury has instructed his SOlic-
itOr to push the bankrupt case against
O'Brien to the rapidest possible conclu-
sion. Besides Lord Salisbury, another
claimant, George Bolton. to whom a
jury awarded 1900 damages in a
libel action against O'Brien years
ago, has revived his demands. 1t is plain
that the object of both suits is to disqualify
o Bren for parliamentary life.
Lord Salisbury started for Chateau Cell
at Leippe to-day. His last official work
was communication TO Mr.. Waddington,
French ambassador, OH the preparations
made for the reception of the French feet
at Portsmouth.

Nearing Dissolution.

LONDON, Aug. THE close of the ses-
sion of parliament brings to the ministers
only brief cessation of work, and to the
politicians only Z short respite of speech
making. The recess will be the liveliest
experienced i'll many years each side work
ing in view Of the fact that ii will be
the last campaign before the
dissolution of parliament. Balfour
viii open the campaign on Monday at Ply
mouth. when it is expected he will give
further linking Of his solution of the yrob-
lem OF Irish county government, to which
the cabinet is distinctly pledged. Since the
Propagation speech announcing that the
coming session would deal only with
questions already elaborated upon, all
rumOrS of Il general election have ceased.
The mem bers know that the legislative pro-
gramme mentioned in the queens speech in
November last is left incomplete. and will
be resumed next year 1t is possible,
even now. to predict with exacti-
tude upon what legislative achieve
ments the cabinet finally hope TO
take the judgment of the country. Besides
the Irish local bill the ministers have per-
fected an important English measure de-
velOpng the existing system of local gov
eminent by creating district councils. The
bill to assist the purchase of land allOt-
ments and amending in favor of the wOrkmen
the law affecting the liability OF employees,
viii reappear with every chance of passage.
The opposition are quite prepared to see the
government succeed in carrying these and
other minor popular measures without fear
ing that the cabinet will be thereby so
strengthened as to avert defeat on
an appeal to the country. The burden of
the work of the recess rests upon Balfour
in his Irish local government bill. The
measure will bear the smallest possible re-
semblance to the home rule measure. The

VICTORIA, CALHOUN COUNTY. TEX,
Aug. THE boldest and most das-

any city was discovered here to-
day. Miss Mary Hensoldt. an imbecile
and helpless lady past the meridian
Of life, was found outraged and
murdered in her rooms on the lower
part OF Main street next to Praegers hard
ware store, where she lived alone. She
was dependent on her relatives and
friends for subsistence, and the
crime was discovered by her lit
tie niece, who, alarmed at the length
of time since she had been seen, went to
learn the cause. only 10 see the most sicken-
ing sight imaginable. The body was in
an advanced state of decomposition, and
there were evidences of brutal violence
too horrible to describe. II was developed
at the coroner's investigation that the crime
must have occurred Wednesday night be-
tween 80 and $50. She re-
turned from relatives house
that night about 7:30 with her
supper, which remained on her table un
touched. The fiend must have been con-
cealed in the room at the time She was in
capable of much resistance, and her
feeble outcries must have been stified.

whatever. The utmost excitement ana in

Talking Worlds Fair.

If the presence of royal persons can in
sure the success of the Worlds fair in Chi
cago its success now seems to he assured.
II is certain that several members of the
English royal family are showing such
an interest in the progress of the prepara-
tons as indicates an intention
on their part to visit the fair,
and communications have reached London
from Berlin which leave little doi1bt that if
Europe is at peace at the time of the fair.
the German emperor will indulge himself
in the greatest voyage of his life in seeing
America. The keen and grow
ing interest taken in London in
the fam renders il probable that
an invitation from the mayor of Chicago to
the Lord Mayor of London, asking him to
inspect the site ana preparations for the
fair this year would find acceptance.
