REcENr1Y Mr Q. Fnrness. M. P. for

RECENTLY Mir c. Furness, M. P. for Hartlepool, England, who is at present on visit to Boston, said in an interview that the death of Parnell would har- monize the divided sections of the home rule party, and that Mir Dillon will be the leader of the Irish home rule party, as he is the strongest candidate and best fitted to fill the position. He said par lament would meet in February and would be dissolved in July or early in August; that the general elections would probably result in Gladstone's re- turn to power, and that there would un- doubtedly be a sufficient majority of home rulers to pass bill for Ireland; that the people of England have made up their minds to have the home rule question settled first; that in the gene ral elections after the coming one, the labor question, the eight hour question and other social questions will be issues. Mir Furness thought that MT Morley would be returned by a greater major ity than ever before, des pite the opposi- ton on account of his position against eight hour legislation.

PRETTY MESS, THIS
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois al
 Variance.
BOUNDARY LINES IN DISPUTE
Two Hundred Thousand of Indiana's
 Population May Belong to Ohio.

The Worll's Fair Site Said to Be in In.
 diana Surveyors Bribed by the Early
 Traders Twelve Thousand Square MileI in the Territory in Questior-A Compli.
 cation That is. Likely to Cause AIuch
 Trouble.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.--Word is re- ceived here that the report of Professor Merdenhall, chief of the surveying party sent out by the National govern ment to locate the boundary line be- tween Ohio and Indiana, is ready for submission. This boundary line has been in dispute for some time.
 The facts found by the surveyors are, as heretofore alleged, that the true line, as declared when Ohio was organized into a State, commences 12 miles west of the present boundary line at the north and runs directly south to the present line between Ohio and Indiana, thus making a strip 200 miles long and of an average width of six miles-1, 200 square miles-to which the State of Ohio lays claim.
 The strip described includes the cities of Fort Wayne, Richmond, and Union City, and has population altogether of about 200, 900.
 All inquiry lnUO the causes UnaU Ieu to the juggling of these boundary lines q is- closes that at the time Ohio was made a State there were post traders located at Richmond at Fort Wayne whose trade with the Indians was very profitable.
 If the line had been run correctly these posts would have been taken in to the new State of Ohio and the occupa- tion of these traders would have been gone. The post traders, it is said, bribed the survey party which located d the line, and Richmond and Fort Wayne were left on the Indiana side.
 The question is q very important and complicated one, for, should Ohio's claims on Indiana be enforced, Indiana would, on the same grounds, have cause of action against Illinois.
 The organic act of Ohio fixes the west ern boundary by Q line drawn due north from the mouth of the Great Miami. The Ohio officials claim that line north would run into Indiana, taking the cities of Richmond, Butler, Union City and a strip of territory from few inches at the Ohio River to 12 miles at the north ern boundary, throwing half of Steuben County into Ohio and about one-third of Allen County.
 It is also claimed that the boundary line between Illinois and Indiana is toe far east, and that when it is corrected a large part of Chicago, including the Worlds Fair site, will be in Indiana.
 Last winter Governor Campbell brought the matter of the disputed boundary before the Ohio Legislature, and resolution was adopted asking that the United States Coast and Geo. detic Survey run the line over.

(From the Fair Reporter.
The High School Principalship.

Under this caption this mornings Republican contained an editorial which was intended, undoubtedly, to throw oil on the troubled waters and bring about solution of this much vexed school question. But while, admitting the editors good intentions, it is difficult to under stand or see why MT O'KPefe's ap- pointment should precipitate secta- rian strife. The only reason why he can be obnoxious to any con siderable number is that racial dis tinction, which the Republican con demns and wishes eliminated from the school board as an organization. Why should it not also be uprooted in the family circle and the school room9 Continued insistence on this point is but to foster a spirit which we all deplore and which is breed ing so much misunderstanding and i'll will amongst those who would otherwise be friends Moreover, it likewise breathes an insinuation of inferiority which is galling to the sensitiveness of any man who knows that he is intellectually and otherwise infinitely superior to the men whose narrow mindedness pre- vents them from seeing anything good outside of their own exclusive circle.
 However, the Reporter is not looking for scalps and is willing to meet the Republican half way in its peaceful proposals.
 It is true that should MT. O'Keefe accept the appointment, if ten dered him, he might find his posi- tion for time somewhat embarrass- ing, but that this uncalled for con troversy would hamper his success or in any way detract from his use- fullness should not for moment be considered. The contrary would undoubtedly result, and the bril- liant attainments with which he is credited would soon disarm preiu- dice and crush out carpiug criti cism.
 Taking as true, what is parenthet- ically asserted, that it is not certain that MT O'Keefe will accept, the writer, on his sole responsibil- ity, would suggest the fol- lowing as way out of the present dilemma promote MT Ho- vey to the position of principal, and appoint Miss Annie McAuiiffe to that of assistant principal. This lady is already the holder of a teachers certificate for the Center School district. She is, moreover, in every way fitted for the place, both by experience as a teacher and in attainments. Her knowledge of the classics as well as proficiency in German and French would make her an able ally to the present ex- cellent corps of teachers in our High school. But more of this anon. What say you MT Republi- can What think you members of the board of education.

GLAvE's ALASKA EXPEDITION.

 Valuable Discoveries.

Back After Seven Years of Exploration
 Valuable Discoveries.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-A. J. Glave, late of Stanley's exploring expedition, who has been in Alaska for the last seven years, has arrived at Victoria, B. C.. after attempting to discover the head waters of Alaska River. He located the source about no miles northeast of Mt St, Elias and has, by his expedition, demon strated the fact that the whole of the country east of Schwatka's field of ex- plorations, is available for pack horses.
 He himself took and brought back four horses in perfect condition. Here- tofore nothing but manual labot has been employed in the country traversed. He has discovered and taken photo graphic views of the whole country ly- ing between North Yukon and the base of the St. Elias Alps, and finds it more suitable for traffic than was ever im- aginod.
 Glave is coming direct to Washington to ask the United States govern men for an appropriation to enable him to open up trails next season. MT. Glave's party was composed of himself and 8 friend named Dalton. It was the small est party that has ever traversed the region. They took 400 photographs and report having discovered an enormously rich copper mine.

loved the schoolma'am since he first set eyes on her. but his rough, un- polished ways would not let him show his love except in the wistfulness of his big eyes. He was hard, uncul- tured fellow, used to an ungentle life, but he was honest as the day was long Like all strong, housekeeping men, he venerated woman with an almost child. ish fervor.
 One evening-the summer was al. ready well advanced and the Wretch and Mamie were in Jimville's eyes as good as engaged-Lariat Dick clat, tered past the outlying houses of the village at a pace that betokened some thing unusual His pony was covered with sweat and the man himself looked dark as cloud. He rode up to the general store, where at that time nearly all of Jimville congregated As he came in the storm cloud on his face was not pleasant to look at.

 Bowman took it, his hand trembling little, and began to read It was to the Wretch from @ girl in the east. It was an appeal that he return soon, that they twain might be married in July.
 'How did you get it?" asked Bow. man, as he folded the paper up again.

near Austin, and had left us. She was an elderly, homely lady, and nobody had paid much attention to her.
 But the new schoolma'am! She was young, and-so pretty. The blush of an Alexandria peach was on her vel vety cheelSs-how she kept her com pleXion in that climate is a mystery chimeric-and the glint of the cloud less, azure Texas sky was in her eyes. She was the daughter of farmer in ncighboring township, and her name was Mamie Alvin. She hadn't taught school week before all the children in the district were her very humble servants. Consequently she ruled the village.
 The Wretch evinced a sudden fond- ness for pedestrianism after this. He used to happen by the schoolhouse in the most casual way just about the time that institution of learning was letting out. Then he would walk home with Miss Alvin and carry her books and things. He used to talk very sweetly to her, fancy, and she seemed to grow quite fond of him. Jimville looked on and swore to it. self There was no denying 1.-the schoolma'am was falling in love with the Wretch.
 The man who swore loudest and most fervently at this state of things was Lariat Dick, the cowboy. He

Which drinks to likewise, me think he goes on, pretty soon makes tracks for home an gets married. See, she says July An with that he sights a letter at me, which of course I reads When gifts the how of it rounded up in my head I knocks the scoundrel down without argument. Then rides for here. Am now what's this ranch goin' to do?'
 After this flow of eloquence Dick waited, lowering and expectant. We had weighed the matter already, while he was speaking. In the land where the Wretch came from, we thought, it might be quite a usual thing to be engaged to one, girl and make love to another, but we wouldn't have it so in Jimville. And before the breath, ex- hausted by the ride and the rapid speech, was all into Dick again, the murmur arose, swelling like the fury of a cyclone, and growing ever more distinct, till the final ''He's got to leave Texas" came from the crowd as a lightning flash shoots from cloud-rift.
 'Wholl tell him?" asked some body.
 ''I will," said Lariat Dick.
 Just then there was the sound of a rush of hoofs outside, of a horse being thrown back almost on to it's launches, muttered oath-and then the Wretch stepped into the store, his eyes ablaze The knock-down blow had driven the liquor fumes from him. But it had also infuriated him almost out of all reason.
 ''1 want the man" he began; then he paused, noting that he spoke to the gleaming barrel of six-shooter.
 ''Yes," said Lariat Dick, "I reckon you wants me, an I ain't stampeding none. You don't want me worse than we want you. I've bin cut out of the herd to sort O hold an experience meetin' with you. Now. what I asks of you, y ou answers to. Savvy2"
 The Wretch made a quick motion to his hip. But in a moment dozen more pistols were leveled at him.
 "No," went on Dick, ''you cant buck none. Now answerl Air you en- gagged to be hitched to a girl back east?''
 "I am," came sullenly from between the clinched teeth.
 "Does our schoolmarm know it?"
 "No."
 Haven't you made love to her2"
 '"That depends on what you cattle call making"
 "None O that, now. Quick Have you?"
 There was an ominous click in the stiffness.
 "Well-yes.'
 "Then"-Dick's voice rose to a fierce. ness and a thunder that was awful in that small room-''you leave Jimville and Texas in twenty-four hours or we fills you so full of lead that you'll weigh heavier than your sin. You needn't stop to tell Miss Alvin. We'll do that. Now-gitI"
 The Wretch slunk out In few min. utes we heard the steady hoof beats of his pony, first strong, then fainter and fainter Reginald Croswaite had passed out of our lives,
