The Old Ladies at the Home are very
nice old ladies', old maids for the most
part and consequently much interested in
everything that pertains TO married life.
Thus they were at once taken with the
bride and groom when they arrived at

they had done, would do, and were doing.

WASHINCTON, Feb THE dobate on
the free silver substitute for tho bond

day.
Hartman (Rep., Mont, and KEN
Pop, Neb.), spoke in favor of concur
renee, and Tucker Dem, Na), in favor
of non concurrence. During the day the
house suddenly became involved in a
bitter controversy. 1t sprang from some
remarks made by Talbot (Dem., S. C),
in defense OF secession which Barrett
0Rep,. Mass J, interpreted as reasonable.
He had the speakers words taken down
and offered a resolution of censure.
After d wr8ngle and some explanations,

meeting assures her Majesty's ministers
that they may rely upon the cordial sup
port of the citizens of Liverpool in what
ever steps they may feel are necessary to
take for that purpose"
When the applause had been calmed
down by the outstretched hand of the
aged statesman, Mr.. Gladstone declared
his adhesion to the principles contained
in the resolutions, and said he came
there not claiming any authority except
that of n citizen of Liverpool. But, he
added, the national platform upon which
the meeting was based gave greater au-
thority for sentiments universally enter
tanned throughout the length and breadth
Of the land and urged that in this matter
party sympathies should be renounced.
Continuing, Mr.. Gladstone said: II
entertain the lively hope and strong be-
lief that the present deplorable situation
is not due to the act of default Of the
Government Of this country.
'The present movement" he added, sis
based on the broad grounds Of humanity
and is not directed against the Mohamme-
dams, but against the Turkish officials,
evidence of whose barbarities rest in
credible official reports.
"Now, as in 1876 to the guilt of massa-
ere is added the impudence of denial
which will continue just as long as Eu-
rope is content to listen"
Mr.. Gladstone then expressed the opin-
ion that the purpose of the gathering
was defensive and prospective, saying
that no one could hold out the hope that
the massacres were ended, although he
ventured to anticipate that the words
spoken Mt the meeting would find their
way to the palace at Constantinople.
Mr.. Gladstone then said: II doubt IL
Il is an exaggeration to say that it was in
the Sultan's palace and there only that
the inspiration had been supplied and the
policy devised of the whole series of mas
sacres When the Sultan carries massa-
ere into his own capital under the eyes
Of the ambassadors he appears to have
gained the very acme of what it is possible
for him to do"
"But," the speaker further said, "the
weakness of diplomacy, 1 trust. is about
to be strengthened by the echo of this
nations voice"
Mr.. Gladstone then alluded to the SUI
pineness of the ambassadors of the pow
ers at Constantinople and said: "The
concert of Europe Is an august and use
full instrument, but il has not usually sue
ceeded in dealing with the Eastern ques-
tion which has arrived at a period when
It is necessary to strengthen the hands of
the Government by an expression of ma
tional opinion. i believe that the contin-
ued presence of the ambassadors at Con-
stantinope has operated as a distinct
countenance to the Sultan who Is thus
their recognized ally.
"But while urging the Government to

to death. The party then boarded the
car and drove out of the park into the
country, returning to the city by a round
about way. The cab, too, disappeared
A bicyclst was the first to discover the
dead bodies of Burke and Lord Cavendish
The news of the double assassination
swept through the city like wildfre and
created intense excitement and horror.
For the first time in the history of the
Irish press Sunday editions of the three
leading Dublin papers were issued next
morning. In all the churches announce
ments were made of the crime and in one
OF the churches n priest while denounc-
ing the crime fell dead on the altar
Immediately the machinery of the law
was put in motion to run down the muir
derers. There was little clue at first to
work on and the labors of the police and
detectives seemed futile. Several arrests
were made, some of the guilty ones be-
ing apprehended, but the prisoners were
subsequently discharged for lack of evil
dence. A man, now prominent in the
business life of Dublin, but who was new
er brought forth in connection with the
case, gave the first important piece of in
formation to the police. Soon other clues
were picked up and when the police were
satisfied that they might act openly they
arrested twenty six Invincibles. This
was on the night Of January 13, 1888.
For a time the men under arrest kept up
a bold front, but one day as they were
taken into court for examination one
member was absent from the ranks. This
man was Kavanagh, driver of the car,
and he turned informer. Soon another
man named Farrell turned informer and
then James Carey volunteered to become
a State witness. This sealed the doom
Of the murderers and In quick succession
