DISTRESS IN IRELAND.

The extent Of the distress threaten
ing Ireland seems to depend largely as
to through which party's eyes it is
viewed. The council of the national
federation has decided that the coun-
try is on the brink of a widespread
calamity, and calls upon Messrs. Dillon
and Harrington to conyoke a, meeting
of the Irish members of parliament for
the purpose of requesting Mr.. Balfour.
the government leader in the commons,
to call an autumn session of parlia-
ment to devise relief measures and to
pass a bill reducing rents in Ireland in
proportion to the loss incurred by the
tenants, owing to the wholesale de-
struction of their crops. On the other
hand. the Dublin Express says the cry
of famine is only continuation of the
party warcry which is raised every
year the. Unionists are in Office, and
odds: Judging from1the past we may
hope that much OF the crops doomed
to destruction by the prophets of evil
will be rescued and that the general
yield will be much larger than ex-
pected."
The Daily Independent regards the
suggestion that the Duchess of York
will shortly appeal for funds in behalf
of the Irish VINO are threatened with
famine, as being an insult, and says:
If the country was ten times as
badly off as it is likely to be, it would
resent any charitable appeal to the En-
glish.''
The Independent emphatically denies
that Ireland, as whole, will suffer
acute distress.

London, Sept. 1s.-(Copyrighted, 1897,
by the Associated Press).-In spite of
official frowns and attempts to sup
press the chatter, it has leaked out
that the detachment of foot guards
CHARTERED at the Tower of London
swear that the sentries on night duty
have seen the ghost of Anne Boyeln,
the unfortunate wife of the much
married King Henry VIII whom he
caused to be beheaded in 1886. The
ghost of Queen Anne Boleyn is only
supposed to appear on the eve Of the
death of a member of the royal family,
and therefore the matter has been
made the occasion for considerable
gossip
The fact that no less than ten bat
teries of horse and field artillery have
been ordered to embark for India dur
ing the months of September and Oc-
to !, is much commented upon in mill
+ circles. Under ordinary circum-
ances the four batteries now in India
would have been relieved this month;
but these batteries have been ordered
to remain in India and. therefore, there
will shortly be on the frontier IA bat
teries Of artillery, full complement
now assembled on the frontier is of
ample strength to wipe out all visible
resistance, the only conclusion that can
be reached in relation to the dispatch

the authorities are possessed of infor-

timation conveyed by the war office
on Monday last to the London COM
mercial agent of the ameer of Afghan
istan that no war material or machin-
cry for the manufacture thereof would
be allowed to cross the frontier during
the present crisis, indicates that the
British government has by no means
entire confidence in the ameer's fdel-
ity, and it is intimated that the gov
eminent has learned that while pro-
Tossing fidelity to Great Britain, he has
been secretly preparing for war.
Well informed circles are also dis
cussing the story of secret correspond
ence between Russia and Afghanistan
which is said to have fallen into the
hands of the British officials. and it is
further intimated that a widespread
plot has been discovered. The Futh or
otherwise of these stories will develop
hereafter, but the fact remains that

the British artillery in India cannot be
intended for use against the Afridis

EX GOVERNOR BURLEIGH RE-

THROUGH THE DIsrRfCT-THE
VOTE IN HANCOCK co.

Monday June p, 1897, will go down to
history as the quietest elect ion day on
record in the third congressional district,
and probably the smallest vote on record.
There was no doubt rs to the result of
the election. aud IN he towns no special
effort was made by cit her party to get out
the vote. In the rural districts the voters
were improving every moment of sun
shine-which has been scarce enough this
spring-to do their much delayed farm
ing. Nevertheless Hancock county's
smaller towns, as a rule, made better
showing than the larger towns, and Han
cock county stands up we'll In average
with her sister counties OF the third dis
trict-Kennebec, Somerset and Waldo.
Mr.. Burleigh's majority in the district
will exceed 5000, which, considering the
very small vote, is very fiattering. 1t
is impossible from so small vote to make
comparison which would show any
thing a. relative strength OF the
contestA rites as compared with last
year.

A GRUESOME ANNIVERSARY.
Frank Moody, of Bluehill, Commits
Suicide on His Wedding Day.


Frank Moody, proprietor OF small
fruit and cigar store at Bluehill, committed
suicide last Wednesday. 1t was the
ninth anniversary OF his wedding. He
was forty years of age, and leaves wife
and one son, boy eight years OF age.
Moody came to Bluehill from Bucks
port about six months ago, and bought
out the small store OF Manuel Mello. He
added to his stock drink known rs
cocoa wine. 1t had been known for
some time that Moody had been selling
this drink to boys, and hen few weeks
ago a man arrested for drunkenness
testified that he got drunk on the cocoa
wine purchased at Moodys, public SEN
timent in Buehill was aroused, and
Moody WIS arrested for violation OF the
liquor law. He WAS bound over for the
October term OF the supreme court but
as he at once stopped selling the wine
he had received assurances that the case
against him would not be pushed.
Nevertheless, according to the story
told by his wife, the matter preyed upon
Moody's mind and he often spoke of 1t.
He seemed to fear that he would be heav
lily fined, and not being able to pay the
fine would have to go to Jail. Despond
ency growing out OF this is the only rea-
son that can be found for the suicide.
Last Wednesday, about noon, Moody
sent his wife and little boy away to visit
neighbors for the afternoon. Returning
late in the afternoon, Mrs. Moody WAS
surprised to find the store closed. She
obtained entrance to the house, and her
to the apartments occupied by the family,
soon came running back, crying to her to
"come look at papa!"
In one corner OF the room, with the
head and shoulders In small closet and
the lower part OF the body in the ROOM
was her husband, dead. The body was
half suspended by small cord around
the neck, and the face was blackened and
distorted by the horrible death by
strangulation.
Moody had made Il moose in "A small
manila rope. This he had placed about
his neck, securing the other end OF the
rope merely hy II couple OF turns, without
any knot, to n hook in H small corner
closet. The closet was not large enough
to contain man, and the hook to
which the rope Vas fastened Va. secured
only by tmo small nails. Moody had
deliberately ChUked himself TO death.
Coroner -. l.. Fields, Of Ellsworth, was
notified, aud Went To Bluchlil Thursday
morning. No inquest MAS deemed neces-
sary.
