The flying of pigeons at Cherbourg bv
some English fanciers, to which we re-
ferred yesterday, seems likely to pro-
duce a ministerial crisis in Paris. saws
the Daily Messenger. A telegram was
posted up in the chamber announcing
that 79S pigeons had been brought from
England (they might have made it 800
and saved the telegraph clerks time) by
the steamship Southampton, and were
about to be dispatched. First one depuL
ty, then another, read this announcement
and asked who had given permission for
this flight. Finally, NJ. Jourde, the deDu-
ty for Bordeaux, wrote to the minister Of
marine announcing his intention of ask
ing a question about the matter and
threatening an Interpolation if the oues-
ton was not answered satisfactorily
The pigeon flying is, it appears, a serious
matter from the point of view of national
defense. Is England preparing a French
invasion and training pigeons to fly over
TO London and announce the fall of Paris?
But really, NJ. Jourde, If you turn US out
of Cherbourg itself, Is it not possible for
us to 90 to Jersey, or even into a boat
outside the three-mile limit? And what
about that French torpedo boat which
came very recently to Plymouth and did
the same thing, with every courtesy and
much good-humored interest on our part9
1t seems as If NJ Melines cabinet had
survived a socialist and an snti-eierfcal
interpellation only TO fall before the at
tack of 79S English pigeons.

The New York Journal prints the fol-
lowing account of a sensational attack on

West Twenty-ffth street where he has
apartments, when Mrs. Knopf walked up
and said, smiling: George. come down, I
want to see YOU

walked toward Broadway. Pepper asked
her if she had come to make up

Because you threw me over and
treated me very stability was the an

oh, you did. did you? cried the wo-
man, at the same time producing a stiff
little rattan from the folds of her skirt.
We'll, take that, and that, and THAR as
she rained blows on the face and head Of
her companion.
Pepper turned into Broadway and ran,
pursued by the woman, who welded her
wear On vigorously all the way.
In front of the Sturtevant house police
man Madden caught the angry woman and
captured the whip. He marched the two to
the West Thirtieth street station house,
where Pepper made a formal complaint
against the woman of assault Mrs KnOpf
who gave her name as Nena Lawrence,
q years old, of the Sturtevant house, was
locked up.
Steve Brodie arrived about half an hour
later, accompanied by his sister, and gave
bail in $1,000 for Mrs. Knopfs appearance
in Jefferson market court to-day.
Vena is pretty and ViYaciOus, but she is
more than twenty-one.
She was handsomely and fashionably
dressed. She is the daughter Of a Phila-
delphia doctor. Five years ago, while at
school in the south, she met n. Harry

THE HOLE is THERE.
People who Doubt May See 1t and
Be Convinced.

Waycross, Ca, July 9.-The people at
Bolen, on the Waycross Air Line, are
discussing a mysterious occurrence of a
few nights ago, and the general opinion
is that some one has secured the treas
ure that was hidden somewhere in thar
vicinity dozen years ago by an old re-.
cluse. A hole was dug under a shack at
the old turpentine still of Kittrell, Pate
& Co., a few night since by a stranger
and the appearance of the bottom of the
hole would indicate the removal of a rust
ed iron pot or small zinc trunk. The YES

The Dupont Case.

From the Philadelphia Times.
There are two things to be regretted
In the decision of tho Senate that Mr.
DUPONT was not els cted senator from
Delaware. The hrst is that Mr.. Dupont
did not receive the votes OF q mSj irlty OF
the Delaware Legislature. go that he
could have been admitted to a seat he is
well qualified to ELL The second Is that
3 decision Of 10 much Importance should
be reached by a bare majority OF th o
Senate, the votes OF senators on an
abstract question Of law being deter
mined by party interest This is not a
new thing, but every fresh instance Of IL
causes fresh regret The argument
against DuPont's admission was so
strong. tbs danger of such q precedent
as his admission would have made
was so obvious. that II Is hard to under
stand the partisan view that brought the
whole Republican side TO his support,
and the question will arise whether the
vote would have been simply reversed II
DUPONT had been a Democrat Moreover,
the Populist Senators who voted against
Dupont did so from no superior respect
for the law, but because DUPONT was q
sound money man It Is this that deep
ems the regret that he was not unques
tionably elected last year. AS things
have been going on since In Delaware,
there Is grave reason to fesr, should the
Republicans again control the Legislature

The pelawnre nIuddIe.

From the New York Herald.
Delaware Is not large state, but Is
able TO Indulge In the unusual luxury Of
two Republican state conventions and to
add q new phrase or two TO the current
political nomenclature Il boasts Of an
Addioks convention and an apti Addlcks
convention. We srs doing our best not
10 get them confused, and we believe
We are right In saying that the Addicks
Republicans of Delaware are opposed TO
Mr. Mckinley as a candidate for the
Presidency. opposed to free coiuge and
want every dollar made as good rs
every other dollar" Why they should
be against Major Mckinley but in favor
OF the McKi uley ''straddle" is more than
we profess to understand. We turn for
enlightenment TO the anti Addicks Re
publicans but we are still confronted
with much the same sort Of conundrum.
The sntis insist that they and not
the Addicks company are the real Repub
lican party. That Is as Il may be, but
Mr., Hastings, their chairman, declares
that they have refused TO wear the
badge OF shame and dlsgrscs Of Addiek
ISM" He sdds that "the rights Of
American cltizsns cannot be ruthlessly
trampled upon by Addlcks or any other
man We should hope not. indeed
But when we turn sgain from Mr. Hast
iugs heroics TO the resolutions we End
him and his anti Addloks friends "de
mandlng the msintenance Of the present
gold standard Of value" There We are
with them. Unluckily, In the next
resolution they instruct their dele
gates to vote for Mr.. Mckinley
At St. Louis 6rst, last and all the time
But Mr. Mckinley Is not for the gold
standard, or, II be ia, he will not say so
BE comes uuder the operation Of the rule
We gave recently who will not say
whether he is for gold or silver is for
silver" We are, therefore, unable to
cast In our lot either with the Addicks or
with tbs anti Addicks Republicans Of
Delaware. We think both OF them, how
ever, useful, for. taken together. they
present an extremely interesting picture
of the Generalization which results from
mixing up Presidential politics and the
financial honor Of the country.
