who would soon become the reigning
belle of Washington.
She was the leader in all innocent
sports, entertainments and charitable
enterprises. At this time Mr.. John
Parnell came from Ireland to visit
America, and proceeded to Washington,
where, by his fine presence, elegant
bearing and charm of manner-to say
nothing of his "blarney"-he wooed
and won the Incompatible Della Tudor

his fair and gifted bride to his grand
and romantic home at Avondale,
County Wicklow, Ireland.

Mrs. Della T. S. Parnell had a house

Dublin season, when the Irish capital
was known as Delightful Dublin"
She also had a""salon" in Paris, and
was often an honored guest of Napo-
leon III. and Empress Eugenie. The
night she held her salon" it was
crowded by the celebrities of Europe.
This remarkable woman was a magnet

and was considered one of the
few brilliant women, even in Paris,
who shone par-excellence as a hostess.
After the death of her husband the
widow had many suitors,
among whom was the earl of Carlisle,

attached Carlisle" he always signed

Then came the death OF the gentle
poetess, Fanny Parnell, the "Parnell
commission" the "Parnell- -O'Shea
scandal" the death of the Irish
leader" and the disaster of the Land
League movement, and the hopes of the
Irish people hopelessly blasted, It

widow.
But the self-sacrificing mother feared
a second marriage might not be con-
\ ducive to the happiness Of her children.
This was the only reason why she did
| not encourage the suit of the earl OF
Carlisle, and in later years had reason
to regret her foolish stand. But the
disappointed earl was somewhat con-

OF her many suitors the fair widow
gave him the preference, and the cele-
brated pair became lifelong friends.
The earl sought her council and advice
In affairs of state, which he often COM
municated to Lord Palmerston, then
prime minister of England.
AT the time of the Mexican war she
advised the withdrawal of the English
troops from Mexico. She became so
skilled in the affairs of state that she
acquired the sobriquet OF The Fair

About twenty years ago Della 7. S.
Parnell advised her son, Charles Stew

undeveloped statesman did so, and was
elected to parliament. How he be-
came the idolized leader of the Irish
people-the "Uncrowned King"-is
still fresh in our memories, although
we may forget that it was through the
power and patriotism Of his mother
and sisters that Influenced public opin-
ion in his favor in this country. The
late Irish leader had frequently re-
marked: That the women of his fam

patriotism and self-sacrifice of the
working women of Ireland became gen.
orally manifest. Bands were organized
and led by Della T. S. Parnell, and her
two daughters, who showed they were
worthy of so great a mother. From
the time of the Land League movement
Della T. S. Parnell worked with an en-
ergy that was superhuman to place Ire
land among the nations"-when the
"epitaph" of Robert Emmett would be
written and the tomb of the "sublimest
patriot" no longer remain "unin-

When Charles S. Parnell was arrested
and thrown into prison, his patriotic

her equilibrium by the shock. She

successful in her ventures, determined,

gigantic work with freedom and liberal

her temporarily unfit for business. She

REPUBLICAN HARMONY"
Ex-Freeholder Doscber Has HIoodin
His Eye and Fir in His Heart.

Ex~-Freeholder John Doseher, of the
Old Fourth District" has blood in his eye
and fire in his heart. AT his back are d
number of his Republican friends. The
trouble arose at the meeting of the Re-
publican County Committee at the Avenue
House on Friday night last, when Samuel
H. Monroe was substituted as a member
of the Executive Committee in place of
Doscher. To the ex-Freeholder and his
friends, this in itself was m~ortlfying, but
the circumstances which they claim sur
round the appointment, are what makes
it particularly CALLING. 1t seems Munroe
was not a regular member of the commit
tee from the Eleventh ward, but was
placed there on the night of the meeting
by the other member of the committee
to fill a vacancy caused by the inability
to qualify of some one of the regularly
elected members. Doscher had held the
position on the Executive Committee for
a number of years, and was, it is
claimed. the choice again of the major
ity of the members of the Eleventh ward
for the position. The County Committee
placed Munroe in the position held by
Doscher, despite these facts. The friends
of the ex-Freeholder say they would not
kick so hard if one of the regular mem
bers of the committee had been given the
place. They do object. however, to "a
charity member" as they. express it,
getting the plum. From all appearances
there is trouble ahead for somebody.

property has nothing to do with the
case. The law provides that he shall
pay,on it. The railroads are pleading the
baby act when they complain against
the individual, as 1 have shown. the in
dividual pays five times greater rate
than the railroads..
Fourth, the railroads claim that be-
cause they pay on their franchises, while
the individual does not, that they are
paying more than the individual. our
answer to that Is that the individual has
a franchise and the privileges that the
railroad has, | am glad to pay the taxes
on it. In other words, give me the right
to compel my n%eighbors and tell anybody
to civ me their property at his forced
value. Give me the right to run trains
and to many other privileges that the
railroads have.
All these reasons have no bearing
upon the question at issue, and III fact
we do not seek to change the law as to
any Of the above points. We simply ask
to change the law SO that the Individual
and the railroads shall pay alike on their
real estate. not on their personal prop
erty, or on their franchises"

speech a vote of thanks was accorded to
