Stricken with Great Grief.
LONDON, Oct. S.-Charles Stewart
Parnsll has died at Brighton. His
death was the result of chill with
which he was attacked. He was also
suffering from acute rheumatism.
On Friday he was compelled to take
his bed, and his death occurred at Wal
sington Terrace, Brighton, at 1880
o'clock.
The news had created most intense
excitement in this city, and the b,,lletin
boards in front of newspaper offices are
surrounded by crowds of people waiting
to hear the slow coming details of this
most unexpected event.
On Friday evening, shortly after Mr..
Parnell had been induced to retire to
his bed, his condition became so grave
that Mrs. Parnell and the attending
physician decided it advisable to at
once summon additional medical advice.
Two other physicians We're at once
called in, but Notwithstanding their ef-
forts Mr. Parnell continued to grow
steadily worse, and it soon became OBJ
vious that the Irish leader was gradual
ly sinking, and that death was but
question of few days, perhaps hours.
Since late on the evening of Friday,
it appears to have been simply matter
Of awaiting the arrival OF the inevita-
BILE.
Mrs. Parnell is utterly Frustrated by
the shock, and her physicians are some
what apprehensive as to her condition.

Any Time for . Week.
NEW YORK. Oct. 8.-Jay Gould has
recovered sufficiently from his collapse
of last week to be able to attend to
business again. He came down from
Irvington on the 9 o'clock train and
reached his Office In the Western Union

declined to rebeive any callers during
the morning, but sent out word that he
was feeling better than at any time for
a week.
Mr.. George Gould, who was also in
town early in the morning, ridicules the
idea that his fathers health is in crit
ical state, and says that he will un-
doubtedly pick up strength as soon as
cold weather comes. Tire heat and

terestirg Races for
To-Day.

The extremely interesting races held
the three previous days, created warm
interest in those who are fond of this
sport, and on yesterday the amphitheatre
was almost filled to its sitting capacity
with gentlemen from a distance and
town; also large number of ladies were
present to witness the days programme.
The first race called was the unfinished
2:40 pace which was continued from
Thursday afternoon. Four heats were
paced at that time, Montrose having two
and Grapeshot two. Montrose won the
heat Yesterday morning, making three
out of five and the race. Time 2:30.

mer won the race in three straight heats.
Best time made was 2:37a.
!! The three minute trot followed with
! six to start, Minnie S., Red Cedar, Nettie

About the most exciting race of the
day was the running race which closed
the days card. There were five runners
started but there was but one in the race at
the wind up of the first mile heat, and
that one was Twilight of this city. This
race was intended to be mile heats best

Marienbad, the favorite watering place
of those who are overburdened with their
quantity of too, too solid flesh, " is at the
height of its season. and as usual. "full
mp" One of the chief subjects OF interest,
discussion and general conversation just
now is the discovery of an old visitors

fact that seventy years ago the poet staid

He was then seventy one years old, and re
peated his visit the two following years.
In the old visitors book, which the pres
ent proprietor has unearthed and which Is
now being gazed at by batch after batch OF
visitors, the following entry is found I'M

gether with the sum he paid for them.
Those who are acquainted with Marienbad
prices of the present day may be interested
to know that Goethe's rent for four rooms,
which he retained about eight weeks.

Another interesting entry in the same
musty tome from which the information is
gathered tells of visit from the Comte de
