come The speaker referred to the kindly
notice the club had received from the
different city papers
Hon. F. NJ. Higgins responded for the
Limerick club. He told the club gather
ing had been peculiarly pleasant to him,
because he met SO many people with
that the sons of Maine were numerous in
Boston as we'll as in almost every state.
The name of Speaker Reed called forth
storms of applause. He said it was pleas
ant for old residents to return to the
home town. He noticed young men
came home wearing "plug hats" and
young ladies with the latest garments
and most fashionable bonnets.
Prof. Frank A. Hill very wittily re-
sponded not as a true Limeriokan, but as
related through his wife and grandfather
with the quaint old town. He remarked
that when people reached that stage
where they were looking backward in
stead of forward they might well believe
they were growing old. These gatherings
he said were reminiscent in character
such as he was pleased to know was the
nature of the club. The gathering closed
with interesting musical programme and
speeches from nearly all the guests.

Havana, January 2S.-Official reports
of an encounter between the columns of
Gen. Sinares and Aldecoa and the rebels

Madden and Record while passing along
Fore street between India and Franklin
noticed two men together. and observed
one put his hand in the pocket of the
other, take out some mon ey. and then
start to run of. They arrested him and
before doing so, saw him drop some
money on the grund, and after his arrest
picked up So he dropped. The prisoner
proved to be Joseph McGovern, who is
we'll known to both officers. McGovern
tried to bluff the officers, but was taken
to the statlon, and with him the man
from whose pocket he was seen to take
the money.
The man who was robbed gives his
name as Lewis Albert Norris of Orono,
who said that before he met McGoyern he
had S2s. No money was found on Mo
'1overn, but he was seen to drop the S3.
Deputy Hartnett Is Inclined to think that
Norris might have met other parties who
took part of his money. The Officers are
confident that McGovern did not have
time to dispose Of the money other than
the amount he dropped, and Norris NAV
be able to give the officers Glue to other
persons he met, and the places he was in
before he met McGovern, who will go be-
fore Judge Robinson this morning.

The time had come, he said, when an
official notification should be given to
Turkey and TO the Mohammedan church
that they must cease to proseIytize by the
sword. The sway of the Turk, he said,
was only endured and supported on ac-
count of those International ieal ousies
that clustered around the transatlantic
segment of the Mediterran can, called the
balance of power in Euorpe The Turks
ought to bs notified that they must erase
from their book of discipline that practice
of the Mohammedan church which makes
use of arson and murder to suppress the
Christian faith. And he would have that
notification followed by a shot which
would go crashing through the grand

IT MUST be admitted that the London
Globe scores point against this coun-
try when, in discussing the advisability
of permanent court of arbitration, it
says:
"How could court be constituted whose
decisions would be sure to command equal
respect from both sides? To this day the
Americans have not carried out the Berng
sea award, and the arbitrators have no
means of enforcing it.'
The failure of congress to appro-
pirate the money necessary to pay the
award made by the Paris tribunal that
arbitrated the Bering sea controversy,
is simply disgraceful. 1t is conduct
that dishonors the country. This
country agreed to submit to the decis-
ion of the arbitrators, and should GER
tainly now abide by such decision.
The question as to whether the award
was too much or unjust congress has
nothing to do with now.

M A. a.1 warmth of soul. A striking
oyr u this kind is reported from
a cn,s wn. Pa. The wife of letter
csr-l in that place was dying, and as
che requested the presence of min
lister her friends sent for the Rev. Mr..
Steinhauser, pastor of st. Michaels
Lutheran church. That reverend gen.
tlemen refused the request, the reason
he assigned being that the dying wo-
man was not a member of his church.
He said publicly that he was called to
Allentown to minister to the congrega-
tion of st. Michael's church only, ''and
not to the entire CITY,"
Such minister must possess strange
notions concerning the duties of pro-
fessed follower OF the meek and lowly
sra who went about doing good,
