 the Ministry.
 LONDON. May 9.-The National Liberal club gave a reception to the ministry thi. evening. About every liberal and radical of any reputation or influence was among the 1, 800 persons present. The speech of the evening was made by the premier.
 The government had but narrow margin of supporters in the house of commons, Lord Rosebsry said, and certainly was in a critical position. It was said that con- siderable tection of the Irish party would vote tomorrow against the ministry. What, however, had any section of Irish men with the cause of home rule at heart to gain by putting the government in the minoIityi Such sn ill-judged policy might arise from fit of anger, but there was no reason for anger between the gov. ernment and the Psrnellite party. Hear, hear
 If, on the other hand the blow should be dealt in cold blood the government were determined to fight the battle to the end. Whether the majority should be twenty, ten or two the government would persevere.

The report gave Tips rec ord of man killer sinos he landed in the United States in 1882. Tip was bought by Adam Forepaugh in 1882. Shortly after wards he killed one man and maimed two others. In 1884 he killed another man, and four years later added three men and a boy to his list of victims.

HALF THE TOWN BURNED.

one Side of the Main Street in a
 Maine Town Is In Ashes-A Fierce
 Gale Carried Burning Brands Fully
 Three.quarters of a Mile.
 NORWAY, Me, May 9.-About 1:30 p. m. fire was discovered in the box shop of c. B. Cummings. originating from hot journal. The shop wac situated on the west end of Main street. The fire quickly spread and soon communicated to the opera house, the finest block in the coun- ty, with two heavily stocked stores on the fret floor.
 The town being handicapped by the lack of a fire department 1t was but few min- utes before the fierce gale which was blow ing at the time carried the light, infamms. ble matter from the box shop to the very extremity of Main street, nearly three quarters of @ mile. The street was thickly populated and some of the finest residences of the town were located on 1t. Help was called from Lewiston and Port land, both of which places sent steamers. Tonight almost the entire south side of Main street is In ashes, but two or three houfes remain standing and they are in a much damaged condition. The South Paris and Bethel departments arrived in good time and did good work. During the time intervening between the breaking out 1 of the fire and arrival of help the villa gexs were helpless. The large number of streams necessary to cover the burning district greatly reduced the effectiveness of the water waterworks system.
 The loss on all, according to insurance agents, will aggregate $500, ,000. Mayor E. F. Smith has called ont Com. pany D., Second infantry, for service in guarding exposed property.
