PARNELL'S WEDDING.
The Marriage Takes Place at St8yning,
England.

LONDON, June 25-It is learned that the
marriage Of Parnell and Mrs. O'Shea took
place at 10 o'clock this morning. The only
witnesses to the ceremony were two ser
wants from Mrs O'Shea's house. The Regis.
trar was strictly enjoined not to give any ID
formation about the matter and promised to
preserve the closest secrecy. An order was
given to have solitary one-horse phaeton
in readiness at o'clock this morning, in-
stead of the usual order for horses OF a car
riage for exercise, as customary when Parnell
stopped at Brighton. When the conveyance
was ready, PaTnell and Mrs. O'Shea entered
the phaetOn and orders we're given to drive
to the westward. After the party had left
Brighton behind them the driver was or
dered to proceed TO Steyning by a circuit
Gus route. Steyning was reached at 9O'clOck,
at which time a heavy rain was falling.
Upon entering the town, Mrs. 0'Shea. who
was familiar with the place and knew the
situation Of the REGISTRARS Office, relieved
the c0achman and drove direct to the Office
herself.
Parnell appeared to be well and in cheer
fut spirits. but occasionally threw nervous
glances around him, apparently being some
what anxious lest the wedding party should
be observed. Mrs. OShea was in dark at
tire and wore pink-trimmed bonnet. She,
too, was in good spirits and very vivacious
both before and after the ceremony. 1t is
announced that second (the TeligiOuS)
ceremony will take place in London iElme-
diately, so as to satisfy his friends. Mrs.
PANEL was seen at Walsingham Terrace
tonight. She said she and Parnell were
married this morning, but she declined to
have the ceremony performed in a church

their efforts to get other peoples property
and also to regain their liberty when they
are captured is a constant source of inter.
est to me-" said an old detective the other
day. "A woman went into a jewery- stors
and sat down on stool before the counter
to look at some diamonds. She was eating
an apple at the time. Presently the clerk
missed fine stone from the trayful she was
examining, and as he was accustomed to the
ways Of shopltGters, he accused her of the
theft.
"She protested vehemently at this insult
but policeman was called in and she was
searched The stone was not found and then
the woman began to threaten suit for
damages. In order to avoid an unpleasant
scandal the proprietor was about TO offer
her $50, when the police officer prevented
him.
Z" He had been questioning the clerk about
the woman's action in the shop and had
learned that she had been eating an apple
when she entered. That aroused his SuS-
picion. Where was that apple? Tha
woman had made a face over 1t and had
thrown it out on the sidewalk. Then the
clerk remembered. Let her GO said the
policeman, she will not bring any suit
So the woman went away without any
money and VOwing vengeance. The police
man sent the clerk to follow her. She was
soon joined by another woman. and before
long they got into quiet corner ard the
second woman produced the half-eaten ap-
pie from her pocket, and gave it to its
original owner. The clerk continued TO fol-
low them, and he told the first policeman
he met what he had seen. This officer ar
rested the woman and the apple was taken
from her. Pressed far into it was found the
diamond that had been missed from the

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Three China
men came to Detroit from Canada. and the
United States Commissioner there intima-
ted that Canada was the country from
whence they came and to which they should
be returned. Acting Secretary Spaulding
directed that they be returned to China,
and sent the following telegram to the Col
lector there:
the act Of September 13, 1888, row in
force. makes an appropriation specifically
for returning to China all Chinese persons
illegally brought into the United States. 1t
Is useless to return them to Canada to come
back tomorrow. The above act was ex-
pressly made to meet the difficulty. Under
it we retuin unquestioned to China as the
country from where they came, Chinese
coming from Mexico and British Columbia,
as they make these contiguous foreign
countries the avenue for reaching the
United States. The Attorney-General ex-
presses the opinion that this action is di-
rectly in line of CARRYING out the Exclusion
Act, for which the appropriation was made.
1t is the practice on the Pacific Coast when
a court finds Cinnamon Illegally in the
country, for marshaIs 10 turn them over to
the Collector at San Francisco for depOTta-
ton to China. The department sees no Oc-
caslon Tor different practice at Detroit"
THE QUESTION AT ISSUE.
DETROIT, June 25.-There is clash here
between the Treasury Department and the
United States court in regard to the three
Cinnamon arrested here. Yesterday Gus
toms Collector Hopkins received an order
from the Treasury Department to ship three
Cinnamon to San Francisco, where they are
TO be taken in charge aud depOrted TO China.
1t will be necessary TO have the Court de-
clare that the Cinnamon do not belong to
this country before this can be done. If
the Court interprets the law, which reads,
''They shall be returned 10 the country from
whence they came," to mean they are to be
returned to the country from which they
Immediately came, and not their native
country, IL is liable To order them TO be re-
turned to Canada. Even if the Commissioner
orders the Cclestials to be returned to their
native country, they can appeal to the Cir
cult Court

"Uncle Fri" Who Worked for the Elder

Fri Grey, who is nearing his one hundred
and eighth birthday and is thought to be the
oldest person in this State, has just been
taken from his little home at Roxbury,
whore he has passed so many years, to the
Delaware County PoorhOuse at Delhi. says
a Kingston On " special to the World.
His removal was against his will and is
looked upon as a lasting disgrace to the
pretty mountain village where nearly his
entire life was spent. 1t was a pleasure TO
many tourists to the Catskills to visit the
centenarian and converse with him.
Had Uncle Eri." as he is familiarly
called, lost his faculties the case would be
different; but he is today as jOvial aud as
well able to talk, see and hear as the aver

treatment in his little home, without worry,
he bid fair to live score of years longer.

but aside from that he is apparently In good
health and sound condition.
While being taken to the poOrhOGse the
man in whose charge he was stopped with
him at Crispelrs Hotel at Andes TO eat din.
ner. Uncle Err made away with a good
meal OF potatoes, ham, vegetables and three
slices of bread and butter, after which he
asked for drink of whisky to wash his
dinner down. He had been accustomed to
strong drink and tobacco since he was
young man. The whisky was procured
with some trouble. as liquOr-selling is pro-
hibited in the place, and the old man drank
it with great gustO. Tie attendant then
started to pick him up and carry him out to
the conveyance, when Uncle Fri" ex-
claimed:
mot yet; not until l get good ten-cent
cigar. If am going TO the pOorhouse it
shall not be ike a pauper, but Ike a gentle
man."
The cigar was bought, the old man lit 10
and puffed away with satisfaction, and
then, bidding those around him gOod-by,
"Uncle Fri" was soon on the way to the
place where he will probably spend his re-
mainingdays.
He was born at East Hsddam, Conn, in
1888, and worked for Jay GOuld'S father az
Roxbury some sixty years ago.
