A LONDON SENSATION.
The Wife Of . Member Of Parliament I'm q
Poor House for Ten Years.

London lie interested jus} now in the story of
Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick James Foley. Mr.. Foley
is an Irish member of parliament and supposed
to be bachelor. 1t has just transpired. how
ever, that for the past ten years the wife Of the
member has been an inmate of the insane ward
of the Lancaster poor house.
The authorities were ignorant of who the
husband of Mrs Foley was. The story has
lately come out, however, and the woman being
brought before the board made a statement in
writing, in which she said:
''What Mr.. Foley states about me leaving him
is true, but he promised to come to an agree
ment, which he failed to fulfill, in regard to
making me an allowance. 1 was only away
from him two years when was locked up and
have never had my liberty since As for perse-
cutting him / assure you that if had my free

Mrs. Foley proceeded to relate two instances
Of cruelty, and says that she had had her cheek
bone broken by Foley She added thatshe was
quite sure she had never been out of her mind
and that her children were taken from her and
she never knew where they were.
In consequence Of the above statement the
board summoned Foley to appear and show
support Of his wife. Mr.. Foley appeared
with his solicitor, Mr.. Washington, and was
shown that his wife had cost the parish DUR
ing the ten years, f262. Mr.. Foley was
asked IL he would contribute to his
wife's support, and he emphatically answered
NO." In reply to the chairman, Mr.. Foley
said: ''Mary Bates Foley is my wife. have
liability, and it is for the board to show con-
trary evidence in the matter"
The board has decided to prosecute Mr..
Foley in the police court

It 10 Said the Farmers Alliance VIII Es-
tnblish One Near This City.
The Philadelphia Press has o Harrisburg
special which says: II is now the positive in
tention of the National Farmers Alliance and
Industrial Union to hold great national en-
campment Of farmers next year to be con-
Quoted on grand scale. Several Of the COM
mittees Of arrangements have already been Sc
lected, consisting Of some of the most prcmi-
nent men of the order.
The site OF the encampment will be at q point
almost midway between Baltimore and Wash
ington, A large, beautiful and appropriate
tract Of ground has already been selected and
most of it purchased. The object of placing
the encampment at this point Is not
only for the purpose Of having it
near the national headquarters Of the
Farmers Alliance, but also because WASH
ington is coming to be recognized as the
scientific, educational and religious center of
the. country, and as the Farmers Alliance
intends to grow, and, in proportion to it's
power. take hand in national politics, it will
naturally cause its encampment or annual
have 1t near the seat Of its political victories
It IL the full purpose Of the alliance to make
this encampment q permanent thing, and to
make 1t as much as possible q great convoca-
ton Of farmers from all over the Union, where
they can meet and fraternize and discuss mat
tiers of all sorts relating to their mutual benefit
aud advancement. In conformity with this
idea all things Of an immoral or depraving ten
dency, such as fakirs curiosities, side shows.
&C., will be rigidly excluded from the encamp-
ment. Tie encampment will be under the per-
sonsl supervision and management Of the or
der.
The speakers for next year win include all of
the prominent men Of the alhapce and grange
from every section Of the country and many
men Of national prominence outside Of these
orders. The subjects to be discussed viii be
political, industrial, educational, social-in
fact everything that pertains to the farmer
and his interests.

A Sarcastic Correspondence,

Naval Officer Willis of New York recently
wrote to the Treasury Department criticizing
the decision Of the board Of general appraisers
that fish packed in salt should be classified a.
salted fish regardless Of the fact that they may
have been previously picked in brine. He said
that it might with equal force be held that
smoked behring's are provided for in
paragraph 29A, n. p, as "salted herrings''
because they are not imported in smoke, but he
remarked that no importer had had the
temerity to set up this claim. Assistant Secre-
tary Spaulding replied to him that if such q
claim is made the department will probably
avail itself Of the information contained in his
lie tier.

Not Pleasant for the Neishbors.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
There is an alley running from H street
northwest between 21st and 22d streets half
way through to street, in which several
colored families live, among whom are a num-
Der Of boys ranging in years from five to sew
enteen, who spend most Of their time on H
street loafing and playing marbles. They and
their companions monopolize the pavement,
and, what is most objectionable and about
which l desire to complain, use vulgar,
profane and insulting language to other
children and ladies who find it necessary to
pass them. Their utterances are made with
such force that from all the front rooms Of my
house the profanity is frequently heard. Not
only is this true, but they modest other children
at their innocent pleasure. Little girls are
forced to leave the street account of their
treatment, and recently two of them were seri-
ously bruised by being purposely upset from
. tricycle.. This nuisance should be stopped at
once and l sincerely hope you will give the
subject place in your columns.
