FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. q, 1898.
Panama Canal Scandal.

The third republic of France in its
darkest days never passed through such
a peril as it is enduring now. The true
significance of the revelations suddenly
sprung upon France is that the thing is
aroyalist conspiracy to overturn the re-
public. Nearly half the people of France
were peouniarly interested, either direct
~ or indirectly, in Panama canal invest
msnts, Their money was lost, and they
are likely to side with anybody who pro-
poses to disgrace and punish those who
lost It, With the peculiar French tenn.
permanent, when aroused and infatuated,
they would even let the French republic
go down in their desire for revenge ON
the rascals who betrayed them.
The charge specifically brought before
the French parliament by NJ. Delahaye
was that five years ago, in 1888, when the
Panama project was ON its last legs ana
already hopeless, the late Baron ReinacA
paid ont among 100 senator's and deputies
OF France no less than 100000 to buy
their votes in favor Of the Panama canal
lottery loan bill, Editors were also
bought up right and left, society people
We're heavily paid to talk up the canal.
and altogether not less than 81 ,0O0. coo
was paid i'll various forms of bribery.
One editor, it is said. got 100000,
IL is, however, with the specific charges
IN the senate and chamber of deputies
that the government is concerned. Mem.
bers OF parliament are squealing like rats
IN trap. One wept when the charge
was brought against him. Others whine
about needless fortunes inflicted ul)on
unconvicted men" When in the United |
states the notorious whisky ring was I'M
earthed, with its black faint touching in
some cases men high in office and public |
confidence, President Grant gave one
memorable order, LET no guilty man
escape If the French government has
the grit and steadfastness to arrest and
punish every scoundrel in the Panama
Ease, even though he be an ex-member
of the cabinet itself, then the third re-
public will come out stronger than ever
1t was before, founded upon the rock of
integrity. If it can weather this storm
With credit and honor, then indeed will
i have good prospect of permanency.
Meantime behind the accusers stand
he enemies Of France-the ceaseless
'oyalist and Bonapartist plotters, who
brought about the present crisis. Roy
lists money purchased the incr;nina,-
ng Panama canal proofs. Their ingc-
luity devised the bomb which has burst
lpon the republic.

Almost a Blaze.

A half burned rugg, hole in the
carpet, the floor burned nearly
through and the door jams scorched
at the residence of DR.. Marden on
Tuesday was stout reminder of a

that in some way was left in contact
with hot stove pipe. Luckily Sid
ney Barr, who boards at the house,
in going through the hall discovered
the smoke. He and Mrs. Marden
made short work of checking the in
clplent blaze, Notwithstanding the
room was so full of smoke as to be
almost suffocating.

rected toward himself. Could it be
possible that those sharp eyes had dis
covered her hiding place?
Mrs. Long whisked into the kitchen,
slamming the door after her. Barbary
turned toward Seth, who was listlessly
preparing food for a sick cow, and
slowly. carefully opened her mouth.
"Ruther queer t Delphiny should

emphatic pause.
Delphine strained her ears to hear
the reply to this direct question. 1t

Here Barbary's sniff echoed loud and
distinct from some unseen corner. Mrs.
Long started. The four aunts turned
and fixed their eyes upon the help
with severity.

Aunt Loisy, swapping her needles.

Late in the afternoon she heard her
mothers quick, energetic step as she
crossed the floor and paused in the
open doorway. For some moments
she stood there quietly. The crickets
were singing dislnally under the rude
plank floor.
Delphine trembled in her hiding

of wheels reached her, and she say
some one driving at break-neck speed.
In two minutes more Tom was stand

Married All of Them,

The first place in the list Of those
who have married early and married
often must be taken by Lady Elizabeth
Darcy, the daughter of Thomas Earl
Rivers, on account of the curious coin
eide nee attending her marriages. She
was wooed by three suitors at the
same time, and the knights, as in
chivalry bound, were disposed to con-
test the prize in the customary man
ner. This the lady peremptorily for
babe, and promised in a ocular man
ner, if they had but patience, she
would have them all three in their
turn, and what. is most remarkable, she
literally fulfilled her promise. First.
she married Sir George Trenchard, of
Wolverton, who left her a widow at
seventeen; secondly, Sir John Gage, of
Firle, and thirdly, William Henry, of
Hickworth, the three original claim
ants for her hand. All the Year
