Assassin Townsend Confesses.

LONDON, April 2s-The Pail Mall Gazette
states that on tho day the Irish home rule
bill passed to Its second reading William
Townsend, the man under arrest on the
nominal charge Of having discharged
his revolver unlawfuily in public place,
but really on suspicion of having in
tended to assassinate Gladstone, lay in
wait for Gladstone's departure from his
residence. with the full purpose Of murder
ing the premier. Townsend. armed with
loaded revolver, had deliberately pre-
pared to shoot Gladstone as soon as he
came within reach. When Gladstone
came out of his residence and the would-be
assassin saw him his purpose weakened,
for the peculiar reason that the venerable
appearance of tho premier reminded him
of his own fathers appearance on his
deathbed. The pistol slipped from his
fingers and he rushed into the bank, sank
on bench and burst into tears. 1t is as
serted that Townsend made his way into
the central hall of the house of commons
on the same night and vigorously de-
nounced the home rule bill.
