ParnelPs Ghosts.
AS you are always glad to hear about
haunted houses in Ireland, writes
correspondent, may add a curious
story with regard to the home of the
late Irish leader? The story is made
more credible by the fact that there
was something in the late Charles
Stewart ParnelPs majestic isolation
which reminded one strangely of the
gloomy grandeur Of the mountains sur
rounding his home. In the square en-
trance hall there is billiard table, and
the story is that the ghosts Of the old
house amuse themselves In this spot
after nightfall. No matter how the
billiard balls are left upon the cloth at
the time the household retires, they
will be found in q different position the
next morning.-M. A. P.

England Concentrating Troop. While
Conducting Peaceful Negotiations.
PRETORIA, Sept. G.-Tho yolksraad
has accepted Mr.. Coester's motion to fix
the debates to grow out of the interpret
lation of the government as to the as
sembling of British troops along the
Transvaal borders for Thursday next.
In presenting his motion Mr.. Coester
referred to "the Jameson raid and other
outrages and murders committed by
British troops" as leading him to dis
trust the present concentration. He
said the convention of 1884 did not con-
tain the suzerainty provision and
claimed that Mr.. Chamberlain had
broken that convention by interfering
with internal affairs of the Transvaal.
Other speakers followed Mr.. Coester,
pointing out that all the British colo
nies were offering armed assistance to
the imperial government.
"And must the Transvaal remain
SILENT" exclaimed burgher. ut is
is opposed to Christianity to conduct
friendly negotiations and to mobilize
troops. We must believe the British
troops have their ORDERS"

CHAUTAUQUANS MOVE.
TFrom the Mail and Express

IE'rOrn the Mail ana EXPRESS.
The headquarters of the Chautauqua
Literary and Scientific Circle have been
moved from Buffalo to Cleveland, Ohio,
as an initial move to reOrganiZe the
association. Hitherto there have been
general offices at Chautauqua itself; the
c. L. S. c. has had it's headquarters in
Buffalo; the Chautauqua books and the
Chautauquan magazine have been pub
lished at MeadVille; DR.. w. A. Duncan,
the secretary and superintendent under
the old system has lived in Syracuse;
Bishop John H. Vincent, the chancellor
and the real genius of Chautauqua, has
had his home in Topeka, Kan, and DR..
George E. Vincent, the principal of in
struction, has been a member of the
faculty of the University of Chicago,
where he is assistant professor of soci-
ology. 1t will not be possible to bring
all these scattered interests together,
but the greater part of them can be,
and it is intended to consolidate the
management of the various ChautauQua
departmentS at Cleveland.
It will interest everybody to know
that Miss Helen NJ. Gould is a benefac-
tor of Chautauqua, and that large por-
tions of the endowment fund and of the
fund for building the Hall of the Christ
ago Miss Gould visited Chautauqua
She was much interested in Biblical
study and when she went away she
quietly gave her check for 5000, for
the Hall of the Christ. A few months
ago she offered to give SIS 900 for a
permanent endowment of Chautauqua
provided that an equal sum were sub
scribed by others. The other $25, 600 has
already been found
The Hall of the Christ CAuIa Christi
will be the most important building to
be erected this year on the ChautauQua
grounds and its cost will be S25 900. AS
its name indicates, it will be devoted to
the study of Christ, His life and works.
