Tories Scared and viii Probably Dis
solve Parliament as Soon as
Possible.
Their Narrow Escape from Defeat on
Monday Has Created Almost
Panic.
The Liberals Anxious for q General
Election-Wales Coming to
America.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE narrow escape
of the government from defeat in the
house Of commons, on Mr.. Thomas Sex
tons proposed amendment to the ad-
dress to the crown, declaring that the
imperial parliament had shown itself
unequal to the task for legislating for
Ireland, is the sensation of the day.
The Liberals are wild with joy and the
Conservatives are almost dumb with
dismay. One hundred and ssventy-nine
to 158 were the figures which defeated
MIR, Sexton's amendment, but the Tories
only hoped to get there with the great
est difficulty and the air is
full Of rumors of approaching
dissolution. The Conservatives, 1t is
admitted, even in their own ranks, are
badly demoralixed party, and they
win go into the battle of general cleo
tion with an almost certain defeat star
ing them in the face. On the other hand
the Liberals will strip for the fight with
an almost certain victory assured them,
and they are just itching to be up and
doing. Nothing short Of miracle or
complications with some foreign power
can now save the Tories from an utterly
crushing defeat.
The Conservative press is groaning
with agony. The Times reproacnes the
government whips for allowing" the
majority to fall so low, and intimates
that this state of affairs is likely
to discourage the Unionists; but those
who saw behind the scenes say that the
government whips strained every nerve,
using the strongest threats possible,
that OF refusing the party support at
tbe coming election, without being able
to muster more than 179 to vote for the
government.
One Conservative member is reported
TO have sharply told the whip not to

mp, everybody knew it and the sooner
there was an appeal to the country the
better for all concerned.
The News, it may be added, says that
it understands that a meeting of the
provincial Conservative agents was held
on Saturday, and that it was almost
unanimously resolved TO advise the gov
ernment to dissolve parliament at the
earliest possible date. Other papers say
that nobody needs be surprised If the
dissolution of parliament comes at
Easter, as things never looked so like a
collapse since the sudden dissolution of

who has been at work on the Smell muir

getting a photograph of Tascott, for

Lawn is q soft stuff made from the
wool Of the lawn, an animal in South
America. 1t is also part of the flesh of
the cow or sheep, the rib part. Shoddy
is drink made from a mixture of ale
and sugar. 1t is the leather before it
goes through the process of making into
boots and shoes, and for this reason is
called shoddy. 1t is the flesh near the foot
Of any animal. 1t is kind of whisky.
Wincey is the wool off an animal which
lives in America; the lamen is its name.
Calico is good heat conductor, because
it catches fire very easily. If print
dress is dried outside it must be careful
not to be left in the sun.
Calendered means turned from one
kind of species into another. 1t is things
which are the shape of q calender, like
our bodies. 1t means preserved with
sugar. 1t means taking the dirt out Of
water. 1t means increased or getting
heavier. 1t is medicine or drug. II

1t means chewing the food well to make
