A MARRIAGE license was issued in
Chicago the other day by which Adam
Gargantyszewicy is permitted to wed
Teo Mazurkiienwiscz. These worthy

with each other, and should go through
other Americanizing processes without
loss of time.

THE NEWS IN DUBLIN.

| DUBLIN, Dot. 7.-Now that Parnell is
dead it is said it was matter of noto-
riety among his intimate friends that
his health had been rapidly declining
for months past His friends and doc
tors say they urged him in vain to be
more careful, but all their remon.
strances were unavailing. Parnell COP
tinued to work at the highest pressure,
and underwent constant privations and
fatigueness which would have ruined
the health Of stronger man. After
the Sligo election, when Barnard
Collery, the anti Parnell candidate, de-
feated Parnells candidate, Valentine
B. Dillon, it was privately admitted
that Parnell was greatly depressed, and
was himself obliged to resort to stimu.
lants in order to sustain his nerves.
At Creegs. Sept. 81, Parnell complained
of suffering from q peculiar pain in the
region of the heart, which pain, he said,
had never troubled him before. This
was in addition to the rheumatic
troubles in the arm, which has already
been referred to. Members of the
league now in this city are making the
arrangements necessary to attend the
funeral of Parnell.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

In some respects the Fair was quite
q success. in others it was not. The
weather was favorable and the attend
ance was large. Tie receipts in money
were large enough to pay all expenses
and do something to ward liquidating a
deficit from last year, In connection
with the Fair u movement for the pur-
chase of Fair Grounds for permanent
occupancy and improvement WAS suc-
cessf"lly inaugurated. and there is ev-
cry assurance that the Society will
soon have all needed conveniences. The
exhibit Of horses, cattle, poultry, fruits,
grains and farm products was superb
in quality. The articles shown were
not.inferior in any respect to those ap.
pearing at the fairs of other counties.
But the exhibit was not large enough.
The farms Ut the county ought to have
been more generally represented. If
three times the number of exhibitors
had each brought his or best, the effect
would have benefited every farm and
farm owner in the county. Visitors
from abroad did not have their expec-
tations met. Mr.. J. H. Maxwell, one
of this county 8 oldest citizens, told Us
of one land seeker who received an un-
favorable impression frem the meager
display. One good result of this that
the pride and feeling Of every public
spiaited man concerning our local in
terests has been touched. They teel
that we ought all to have done better
and must do better next time.
But all honor to those who labored
incessantly to make the fair successful.
All honor to the faithful officers whose
wisdom, energy aud economy accom~
plished SO much with so little. l he
failure, so far as there was failure, is
not to be laid to the charge of the So
ciety's elficicient officers and workers.
They had to overcome many obstacles,
the chief one being general apathy on
the part of those whose interests would
have been better served by a better fair.
