FATHER M'GLYNN ILL.
His Condition Has Become Alarming
to His Friends.

Newburg, N. Y, Jan. 4.-The Rev. DR..
Edward McGlynn, pastor of st. Marys
Roman Catholic church in this city, is
still confined to his room by illness and
his condition is such as to cause alarm
among his large circle of acquaintance.
Six weeks ago he was taken i'll, but
there was every sign of an early re-
covery and the physicians said he would
be himself in ten days. He lost flesh
and strength daily. His once tall and
robust frame is now enaciated and he
is now scarcely recognizable even by
close friends. 1t has just become pub
lie that he has a mysterious growth on
the right hip and its appearance has
baff1ed his physicians. 1t is eating its
way in his system and robbing him of
his vitality and strength.
The doctors say he is not in a condi-
ton to undergo an operation, as the
strain on his present weak system
would undoubtedly prove fatal DR..
McGlynn is 6S years old and has always
been active and enjoyed the best of
health until his present illness. Only
clerical friends are allowed to see him.
Every day the parsonage is beSieged
by members of the congregation inquir-
ing as to the condition of their pastor.
DR.. McGlynn, although weak physical
ly, is strong in mind and spirit. He
jokes with his callers and converses
with his usual keenness and intel

TEST VOTE ON QUAY.
It Will Come on the Question of I'm
mediate Consideration.

New York, Jan. A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
An opportunity is to be afforded to
test the full strength of former Senator
Quay in the senate without direct vote
on the question of seating him.
This will come some time next week
when the committee on privileges and
elections reports his case back to the
senate. There will be two reports, one
signed by Senators Burrows, Caffery,
Pettus, Turley and Harris, against seat
ing Senator Quay and another signed
by Senators Chandler, Hoar, Pritchard
and Spooner, in his favor.
When these reports are submitted a
motion will be made by Senator Chan
dler to proceed to the immediate con-
sideration of the case. The question of
right of a senator to a seat being one
of the highest privileges it is competent
for Mr. Quay's friends to insist upon
immediate consideration. They are
anxious to have a test made of his full
strength and believe the result can be
accomplished by a vote GA this ques-
ton.
Should majority prefer to continue
with the currency bill, it is not improb-
able that Senator Quay may conclude
to have his appointment withdrawn.

AROUND KIMBERLEY.
News Of the War In the Western Part
of the hostile Region.

New York, Jan. A dispatch to the
Herald from Naauwpoort, says:
An extraordinary occurrence took
place last night. A number Of trucks
loaded with food stuffs, got loose and
ran away from our lines, down the
Colesburg declivity toward the Beers at
great speed. Three trucks crossed the
culvert and remained on the line, mar
Vicious to say. Others fell over, while
some remained on this side. The engine
driver of the train attempted to rescue
1t, but was shelled by the Beers and
obliged to retreat.
A train was then sent to rescue the
goods in the wrecked train, escorted by
a cavalry company of the Suffolks, but
when it reached Plewnan's siding it was
subjected to a terrific shell fire from
a Hotchkiss and a big gun and also rifle
fire. The train and it's escort had to
hurry off. An attempt will probably be
made to destroy the goods.
We command NorVaPs Point bridge
with two guns and also the Colesburg
road bridge. The Beers have no way
of retreat except by way of Stormberg
Big developments are expected.
A Kimberley dispatch to the Herald
says:
The De Beers company has decided
not to pay a dividend, but to husband
their resources, owing to the complete
stoppage of work.

Good Advice From Police Judge
c. A. MagaW.

TheSe are dog days, IN police court at
least. Wednesday afternoon Judge Ma
gaw looked wise and Assistant City At
torney Gregg summoned all his know
ledge of Blackstone in trying the cases.
d. Cantrell, a colored man, answered
to the charge of keeping a vicious dog
at Fifteenth and Chandler street. He
did not know the dog was cannibal
and when Mary Shaw claimed the ca
nine had bitten her he doubted it
Never heard o. the oman he said,
and that his dog would bite anyone he
had never heard of was out of the Ques-
ton. The case was continued until more
evidence could be brought to bear
against the dog.
Joe Barr & Co.." Judge Aagaw read
from the docket. The gentleman in
question together with the rest of the
firm, was not present, but the entire
business concern had to answer to the
charge of keeping a ''yaller" dog that
set it's teeth into the flesh of Oscar
Lundburg. Oscar was there.
Tell your story, said the judge:
after Is cents worth of cabbage ex-
planned Oscar. Il ran all the way and
when I passed the dog he jumped and
bit me right here" and oscar slapped
his pistol pocket rather heavily. The
blow must have irritated the wound for
he flinched when the judge asked him if
he had plagued the dog. He was quite
sure he had not.
Can business firm be prosecuted on
a criminal charger" asked the judge of
the attorney.
W. r. Smith. who is the company,
agreed to represent the dog and the
case was continued.
officer Hall testified that the dog was
vicious and that he had shot at him
and that the dog tried to bite him.
Whether the shot or the bite came first
was not questioned. It was discovered
that while officer Smith was prowling
around the alley in the rear of the store
where the dog is kept that the said
"yaller'' dog parked, bit and ran at him.
Bad for the dog. Officer Hall said the
dog tackled him at Second street. That
was a foul pure and simple for all
tackles below the knee are against the
rules.

larly bright looking boy and it has been
stated upon good authority that some

This is certainly good dog" said the

TOPEKA THE WINNER.
Lawrence Bowling Team Goes Down
to Defeat.

The T. A. A. bowlers won from the
Merchants Athletic club bowlers from
Lawrence on the Topeka alleys last
night by the score of 2,128 to 1880.
This was not one of the Interstate
league matches but a return game. Tope-
ka has won three and Lawrence one out OF
the four matches played. Neither OF
the teams put up the game that was
expected of them. But three men sue
ceeded in scoring five strikes or better
and the misses piled up heavily for
the Lawrence team.
A good sized crowd witnessed the con-
test. AS the accommodations for spec
tators are limited the interest in the
game can not be judged by those pres
ent but by the time the match was
commenced all the available space was
taken.

of pins and struck the bunker with
thud. This furnished excitement for the
crowd.
The scores were not as high as might
have been expected. New pins may
have been the reason. They did not fall
as they might have and many bowls
that were called strikes before they
reached the pins left one or two pins
that certainly should have gone down.
1t was bad night for breaks. For the
Topeka team Kirkpatrick made the
highest score, 462 with strikes, 16
spares and 4 misses. For Lawrence
Pierson made the highest, 42S with
strikes, Is spares and misses. With
both teams the indifferent handling of
the second ball was noticeable After
the match the teams were entertained
at lunch. The T. A. A team will play
the All Stars at Kansas City on Satur-
day night. The first league game will
be played here Jan. 26 between T. A. A
