Behind the capitalist, be he ever 90

Bourget, in his book ON travel In Amer

America is par excellence q democracy,
&c is that parsonage which constitutes
Its fundamental basis. III the civiliza-

through the workingman that IL will
change, as France uf 1889, whose ma

time formidable strikes, which every
where else would be called civil wars,
seem to foretell one of those class du-
els, the issue Of which is never doubt

world has been the world, have always
beaten the more happy, when Ii has
come to a matter of battle.
However, at other times and outside
of these questions of strikes you may
talk to some of these laborers, you find
them so evidently happy in their work,
executing it so well, with such an in
dependence Of free citizens on their
rough features. They so visibly have
the calm of energy amid the rising and
falling of the piston rods, the whistling

One appropriating s43, 800 for lighting HAY

preparation committee The only other
amendment of Importance offered was one
by Mr.. Morse (Mass.), to cut off the appro-
priation for the interstate commerce COM

Mr.. William Talbot of Alton Towers re-
lates that his father Matthew Talbot Of
Castle Talbot, Wexford, Ireland, was much
surprised at the recurrence of dream
three times during the same night, which
caused him TO repeat the whole circum-
stance 10 his wife the following morning.
He dreamed that he had arisen as usual
and descended to the library, the morning
being hazy. He then seated himself at
his desk to write, when, happening to look
up long avenue of trees opposite the
window, he perceived man in blue
jacket mounted on white horse coming
toward the house. Mr.. Talbot arose and
opened the window. The man advanced,
and presenting him with roll of papers
told him they were invoices of vessel
which had been wrecked and had drlfted
in during the night on his son-in-law's,
Lord Mountmorris', estate close by, and
signed HBell and Stephenson
The very morning that he related these
particulars to his wife Mr.. Talbot was
seated in his library when he beheld the
Identical man of his dream, clad in blue
and mounted on a gray horse coming
down the avenue of trees toward the
house. He Immediately opened the win
dow and awaited the mans approach
The latter rode up, and taking from his
pocket packet of papers gave them to
Mr.. Talbot, stating that they were In
voices belonging to an American vessel
which had been wrecked and drifted In
upon his lordship's estates; that there
was no person on board to lay claim to
the wreck, but that the invoices were
signed Stephenson and Bell" 1t will he
observed that the only difference between
the dream and the fulfllment of it was in
the transposition of the names attached
to the invoices. New York Times.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. CASE.
Judge bradley Dismisses the Puailistio
Lawyer with Reprimand.

WASHINGTON, March 1i.-Judge Bradley
contented himself yesterday with warn
ing to the lawyers in the Pollard Breckin-
ridge case over the pugilistic encounter Of
the night before. He also called attention
to a report that the lawyers In the case
had come to the court room armed, but
this report was quickly disproved.
Apart from these accessories of the case
the day was uneventful. Miss Pollard
failed to appear at all, being in state of
great nervous excitement, her friends said.
Her presence was not essential, as most of
the day was consumed in reading long
deposition, after which Sister Cecilia, Of
Pueblo, Colo, was called to identify the
mysterious volumes Of Irving, by which it
Is expected to prove that Miss Pollard
gave birth to child in the Norwood con-
vent, near Cincinnati, in 1884 or 'S5. The
contested point of Importance, the motion
of the defendant to exclude certain affi-
davits was decided in his favor, at which
he seemed greatly encouraged.
The evidence of Sister Cecilia was inter
rapted by adjournment as she was about
to answer the question as to whether she
identified Miss Pollard az the lady who
had given birth to a child in a convent
near Cincinnati.

ABOLISH THE PEERAGE.
Significant Vote in the British
House of Commons.
NO USE FOR THE HOUSE OF LORDS.
Labouchere's Amendment TO the Queens
Speech Carried by a Small Majority.
American Statesmen Regard 1t as the
Beginning of a Social Revolution.


LONDON, March 14.-In the house of
sommons Mr.. Henry Labouchere pro-
/ posed as an amendment to the address
In reply to the queens speech the abo-
lition Of the house OF lords. After some
discussion nnd considerable excitement
the amendment was put to vote and was
passed by l47 to l45, in spite of the opposi-
tion OF the government When the figures
were announced they caused an outburst
Of prolonged cheering, which was renewed
when the deputy speaker read the address
In reply to the queens speech with Mr..
Labouchere's amendment attached TO it.
The division on Mr.. Laboucheres
amendment occurred earlier than WAS ex-
peeted and many of the Conservatives were
absent at dinner. The majority was com
posed Of seyenty-threc McCarthyites and
ParnelliteS, the remainder being Radi-
Gals.
When the division paper was handed to
Mr., Labouehere tremendous cheer broke
from the Irish and Radical benches and
the members standing below the gang
way. Mr. Tanner was excitedly cheering
and waving his handkerchief, while the
government tellers looked pale, especially
Chief Whip Ellis. All the ministers
looked downcast, while Mr.. Balfour
smiled ironically #...
The Duly News ridicules the idea that
Che government will resign on account
of the adoption of the Labouchere amend
ment. 1t says that the only practical, and
from some points of view not undesira
Bile, result of the division will be that the
amendment must be brought directly
under the notice of the queen.

WASHINGTON, March Il. The statesmen
are greatly Interested In the passage Of the
Lsboucherc amendment favoring the abo-
littou of the house of lords by the British
house OF commons. The opinion was gen
orally expressed TINT tho action, fewer
than half the members having participated
In the vote, did not mean that the present
abolition of the Legislative functions of the
pserage was at all in prospect, but it was
agreed that the vote would have the ef-
feet of warning which, If it was not
Needed by the peers, might lead to com
plete revolution in the future. Senator
Davis, OF the foreign relations committee,
voiced the general sentiment when he
said; "1t Is merely registration of the
sentiment which has been ripe for the past
twenty five years. The people have be-
come tired of body of hereditary law
makers who do nothing but obstruct their
will by exercising sort of veto power,
and It looks as if this might be an import
aut point IN an impending revolution"
= Senator Allison. who has given much
attention to British politics, said that the
vote on an amendment opposed by the
government would probably have the
snect of causinga dissolution of the Rose
berry cabinet and an appeal TO the coun-
try, The general opinion in the senate
was contrary to this view, however. Many
OF the senators spoken TO hold that 1t
would not be regarded us test question.
