LONDON, Oct. 6.-Lord Tennyson's
death was painless and peaceful. Since
yesterday afternoon it was evident to the
physicians that the end was only ques-
ton OF few hours. The dying Poet
Laureate gradually lost strength, falling
and growing feebler little by little. but
palnlessly, and finally the end came,
peacefully as flowed the life of passing
soul. Death came to him as he would
nave wished it. There was no artificial
light IN the room, only the mellow rays
of the autumn moon lit up the chamber
In which the dying man lay and fell across
the bed, bathing him in pure, pellucid
light, forming Rembrantesque back
ground to the scene. All was silent save
the gentle signing of the wind through
the trees around the mansion, a fitting
requiem for poet who sang of love and
beautiful nature. So quietly did his soul
depart that the members of the family
were not aware of the fact till it was an
nounced by the attendant physician.
once or twice during the night he
lifted his eyes to the face of the watchers
and peaceful smile played over his
features.
Lady Tennyson, though herself feeble,
bore up well when informed that all was
over.
A coincidence is the fact that one
year ago to-day Charles Stewart Parneu
died.
1t is conjectured that Gladstone will
appoint Algernon Charles Swinbur1e

The Canon of Westminster Abbey has

bury his father in Westminster Abbey.
Hallam Tennyson is now so i'll as to be
confined to his bed.
The body of Lord Tennyson lies on the
bed where he died. He looks fifteen
years younger than before death. His
beard has been carefully trimmed. His
laurel wreath crowns his head and an
other lies at his feet. The burning wax
tapers lend a subdued light to the cham
ber. The Bishop of Manchester will
preach the funeral sermon in Hasleplere
Church on Sunday.
Sir Edwin Arnold publishes the follow
ing poem IN the Telegraph this morning:
NO MOANING OF THE BAR.
Sail forth, strong Ship into that gloom which

Not dlrgG, but proud farewell from each
And praise, abounding praise, and fame's
faint starlight
LamPlng thy tuneful soul to that large noon
where thou shalt choir with angels
WORDS OF woe are for the unfulfied
Not thee, whose moon of genius sinks full

NO moaning of the bar, musical drifting Of

Death soft wind ali thy gallant canvas lit

And Christ, thy pilot, to the peace that be.

NEW YORK, March 19.-Delos McCurdy,
the associate of Judge Isaac III. Maynard
as counsel Of the State board of canvassers
and the Democratic party in the recent
proceedings TO steal the State Senate,
makes public the defence of Judge May
nard for the action which the Bar Associ-
alton is about TO investigate.
The defence is in the shape of letter
written to the chief judges of the divisions
of the Court of Appeals. 1t adds abso-
lutely no new facts to the history of the
case, and contains not scintilla of evi
dence tending TO show that either Judge
Maynard or his clients were actuated by
any other motive than TO keep the Repub-
licans, by any possible means, from get
ting control OF the Senate.
Judge Maynard defends his actions as
being strictly legal, but practically con-
fesses that he and members of the State
board of canvassers. who. are supposed TO
be devoted to carrying out the law, re-
gardless of party, were holding confer
ences to determine what action should be
taken TO keep the amended returns from
Duchess County from coming TO their
hands and now they might be disposed of
if in spite OF all they should come.

ESPECIAL CABLE TO THE NEWS,


BERLIN, March 19.--Both Chancellor
Won Caprivi and Minister Zedlitz are
anxiously awaiting the action of the
Kaiser on their designations, and believe
that his departure from the city was due
to his unwillingness to face the difficulty.
The excitement in the city has not abated
ia the least and to-day the ministerial crisis
is the sole topic of conversation. The
Education bill, the measure which caused
all the trouble was fraud by Minister
Zedlitz and he could not therefore remain
in Office when the governments support
of it was withdrawn.
The political world is in state of
worry. 1t is stated that Emperor William
wanted grant Of forty million marks,
which the ministers and the Reichstag
opposed.
It is rumored that the education bill
will be withdrawn and that the Emperor
will follow the policy of the liberals, but
majority OF the deputies believe that the
Emperor will not yield and that then the
difficulties will be increased.
BERLIN, March 10, 2:30 p. Mt is now
asserted that Caprivi has not resigned,
and this statement is confirmed by high
officials. The crisis only affects Count Won
Zedlitz Trutzschler, the minister of eccle-
siastical affairs. The Kaiser's decision in
his case is not expected for week yet.
IL is asserted that the Kaiser would never
have left Berlin had Capriyi really re-
signed.

Rand Flight

Although something is known about
the speed of birds and animals, there are
few ascertained facts concerning that of
insects and fishes. They rarely move in
anything like a straight line, and it is
hard to arrive at anything more than ap-
proximate results. In Poachers and
Poaching" the following example ID
given:
81 have frequently had the opportunity
OF dropping into company with our lar
gest species of dragonfly along particu-
lar road in autumn.
On foot one has scarcely any means OF
judging of its speed, for in moment it is
past you and out OF sight; but what is
the experience when you are driving, say
at the rate of eight or ten miles an hour?
The rapid voyager shoots by you almost
out of sight; then turns, swerving widely
from right to left, and passes you again
in both directions, traversing repeatedly
the ground over which you are travelling
but once.
We arc apt to exaggerate these matters,
but with every allowance, having COM
pared the fight of the dragon-fy with
passing hawk, swallow and cuckoo,
have computed that it is capable of flying
at speed OF 100 miles an hour.

SKowHEGAN, Me-, March 19.-There is
great excitement here to-day over the
disappearance Of Edward b. Coffin of the
law firm of Morrill, s. Coffin. 1t was sup
posed that Coffin was a single man. as he
was paying marked attentions to promi-
nent young woman, but it is now learned
that he was secretly married ten years
ago 10 Belle Laughton. n young woman
OF good looks and attractive figure, the
daughter of n man known as "the Hop
Pole King"
Coffin did not associate with the girl in
public and nobody dreamed that any mar
riage existed between them Five months
ago Collins mother died and left him slo.-

hegan. 10 Is supposed that Coffin had
made an agreement with his wife that
after the death Of his mother by whom
the Laughton girl had been dislikcd, the
marriage should be publicly announced.
II IL thought that since the death of Cof-
fins mother she had become desperate in
her determination 20 be recognized as n

NEW YORK, March 19.-The beautiful
new four-masted steel ship Windermere,
Capt. Windermere, of Milford Haven,
Wales. lost her reckoning off the New Jer-
sey coast, and soon after dawn yesterday
she came ashore in the gale, broadside on,
at Deal Beach.
With officers and crew, which includes
twelve young apprentices, the Winder-
mere carried forty-seven men. IL was
owing to the good work of Capt. Lambert
Edwards and his crew of Life Saving
Station No. 6, that none OF these lives was
lost. Forty-two Of the men were taken
from the stranded ship in the breeches
buoy with hardly wetting from the sea.
All were numb and cold and almost eX-
hausted by exposure.
The Windemere was on her first voyage

Her officers are Capt. q. A. Windemere,
First Mate Edward Bunard, Second Mate
Andrew Scott, Third Mate James Par
sons, Fourth Mate Thomas Richardson.
Her twelve premier apprentices paid $50
apiece to sail on the ship.
The place where the Winderlnere went
ashore is at the foot of Deal Lake, near
Interlaken station. 1t is not more than
one hundred yards from where the New
Era steamship with four hundred souls
grounded in November. 1854, at which
time 300 persons were drowned.
III late years the most noteworthy dis
aster there was the grounding the French
steamer EAmerique, which remained
beached for nearly year. The British
steamship Pliny also met with disaster
there about ten years ago. Three years
ago brig came ashore and all hands were
lost. A German bark and the schooner
Yale were also wrecked near at hand.
