No MORE FREE GoLDFIsH.-Citizens
who apply to the Fish Commission in
Washington for goldfish will be doom.
ed to disappointment in the future.
The commission has found it necessary
to curtail the generous and gratuitous
distribution of these fish which has
come, during the past five years, to be
a large part of the institution. In the
future goldfish will be furnished only
to State commissions, to parks, and for
public uses generally, and will not be
given to private applicants. This step
has been forced upon the commission
by the steady increase of the demand
for goldfish, which has grown until it
overtaxes the forces of the bureau and
interferes with more important work.
There is no special law authorizing OF
compelling the commission to handle
goldfish. The custom of giving them
away has grown from small beginnings
ten years ago, until during the past five
seasons the annual output has amount
ed to about 10000 fish.

IN HIS speech at Boston last night
e1-Speaker, and Speaker to be, Reed
took decided ground against interfer.
ing with the German tariff bill in the
next Congress, and said that all that his
party could do until 1897 would be to
let the country try the effects of that
bill. Mr.. Reed, like the late General
Butler, never was charged with being a
fool, and he never showed his good
sense more patiently than when he made
the speech referred to.

ONE OF the republican negro orators
in New York, who was too persistent
in his demands for the payment of an
order for twenty dollars for party SER
vices; was so forcely and violently
elected from republican headquarters in
that city that he was hurt, and he has
brought suit for ten thousand dollars
damages. AS the laborer is worthy OF
his hire, it is hoped he may win the
case. Northern republicans will not
give Offices to negroes, but they should
at least be made to pay them their
money dues.

THREE THOUSAND names, mostly
those of negroes, have been appended
to petition to Congress for suffrage in
the District of Columbia. AS negroes
are appointed to important and lucra-
tive government offices in Washington,
not for competency or efficiency, but
for the avowed reason that their race
must be recognized, surely those in
Washington should not be denied the
privilege there that is accorded them
when they visit the States adjoining
that city on election days.

for the appointment, not the election,

Henry Oakley Smith, o member OF an
old and aristocratic family, closely con-
nected with nobility.
Twelve years ago ne was prominent
in London society, but lost all through
woman. In 1880 he became infatuat-
ed with Kitty Fortescue, famous
English stage beauty. They were
clandes timely married. Afterwards,
renowned by his parents and cut OIL
without income, he obtained travel
ing position, and lived happily for
year or so, when bis wife began TAX
ing part in private theatricals.
She achieved such success that her
head was turned, and, despite his plead
ings, she returned to the stage. Her
successful career is familiar to all Eng
lish people. There was parting, and

came scandal conn Getting his wife with
titled prohigate.
The husband could not bear the dis
grace and he quietly took passage for
America, settling in Manitoba after
months of aimless wandering. He al
ways lived in remote places, managed
to make scant livelihood, but was too
proud to apply for assistance from his
family.
A short time ago his circumstances
became so desperate that he wrote
home, and soon received letter from
his fathers lawyer, stating that assist
ance would be forthcoming. Await
ing this, he lived on charity with a
farmer, and borrowed money to come
to Winnipeg. When his remittance
came he found it contained but IS:
This so mortified him that he procured
revolver, and, after spending what
remained in drink, shot himself. He
told his story to local lawyer before
committing the deed.

quest touching the death of Cornelius
Riordan, who was killed in a sparring
bout with Robert Fitzsimmons, in SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, last Friday night, was held
last night before Coroner Roberts and a
jury. The jury brought in the follow
ing verdict after long wrangle:
1--WE find that Cornelius Riordan
came to his death on the evening of
Friday, November 16, from an acciden-
tai blow delivered by Robert Fitzsim-
mons while engaged in sparring ex-
hibition on the stage of the II. R..
Jacobs Opera House. We exonerate
Robert Fitzsimmons from all blame"
Strong testimony against Fitzsim-
mons was given by DR.. d. NJ. Totmap,
who attended Riordan. He testified
that the blow delivered by Fitzsim
mons alone caused death.

THE JURY HANGS F1RE.-The result

The july dANGS FIHE.-I ue reSuIl
yesterday evening of the long-delayed
and tediously conducted trial of Thomas
N. McNamee for the murder of Robert
Lee Atwell in Richmond was the failure
on the part of the jury to agree upon q
verdict. That body was promptly lock-
ed up last night and it is expected that
verdict will be reached by the open
ing of to days session of the court. The
case is one of the most sensational that
has been heard in a Richmond court
since the celebrated Cluverius trial.
While there is much speculation as to
the result, it is generally thought the
verdict will hardly be murder in the
tirst degree.
