quiries made OF him with reference to the
conference proposed by Captain Shaw e.

by the parties interested. The extent Of the
useful action Of the government is limited
to providing facilities and giving effect to
the settlement II is not for the govern

portuneness Of holding this conference. Amy
conference is a step In the right direction
II it brings nearer the prospect of a settle
ment."

conference IN Dublin, when, he said, he

simple and practical solution Of the present
troubles and one which will lead to a settle
ment satisfactory to both landlords and ten
ants"
This proposal Of Captain Taylor was made
shortly after the crimes act was proclaimed
in the counties Of Kings. Limerick, Long
ford, Queens and Westmeath and the bor-
| oughs of Dublin and Limerick.

Prince Henry.s Honor.

Hrlnce Henry Oh PRUSSIA anu Ills
suit has been an exceedingly
busy one for those interes in
the reception and entertain ment
of the distinguished guest. Mem
bers of this and that committee
have been hurrying about all day
in frantic effort fo complete the
details of their end Of the ar
rangements. Decorators in many
parts of the city are engaged in
putting up flags and bunting
and the, city is fast blossomlng
out a mass of color. The main
scheme of the decorations is the
colors Of the two nations inter-
sperSed and crowned with golden
eagles. Another popular form
of decoration is the prince ; por-
trait draped N bunting and eX-
posed in windows.
IL is evident that the celebra-
ton will draw one of the largest
crowds ever assem- bled in New
York. Hotels and boarding
houses are overfowing with Wis
ito;s, many of whom have jour
MED hundreds of miles to witness
the festivities. The gathering
of such q large crowd might be
thought a good opportunity Tor
anarchists to perpetrate their
nefarious work, but if they show
their heads above the surface
during Prince Henry's visit they
are assured of a warm reception.

THEY PLAY GOOD BALL
But They are also Experts in
Other Lines.

The Montezuma (Ga.) Record of
August |, entertains it's readers with
the following fairy tale" concerning
the match game of ball played be-
tween the club of that city and the
Oak Halls of Gainesville, on the Pa
latka grounds, July 29th:
"Montezuma's crack baseball nine,
who haven't been defeated this year,
went down to Palatka, Fla, Sunday
to play in that place against Gaines
vile.
Monday they played practice
game, and Tuesday when the visitors
came in it was on a special train of
fourteen coaches, loaded with buns
and cutthroats.
"The home boys say they We're act
ually threatened with death if they
won the game that day. Many of
the Gainesville boys had pistols,
which they displayed to the crowd,
and openly threatened our boys if
they did not lose the game.
Gainesville evidently went up
| looking for trouble, for the crowd she
sent up as her representatives had
weapons of almost every imaginable
! description.
"In the first inning Gainesville
made six runs, after which neither
side scored anything.
"Montezuma went down with the
strongest team she has ever played,
| but the DULLES were determined to
win the game if they had to resort
to firearms.
| Under the circumstances our boys
did well, but no nine can be expected
to do anything when they are threat
ened even unto death if they play
BALL.
The story is absolutely without
foundation. The Montezuma club
had been employed to represent Pa
latka at it's Gala Day celebrat ion,
on the day mentioned. The game
was called at 3 p. m. and there was
present to see the game an audience
Of some 400 people.
The players of both sides, as well
as the crowd Of spectators, were Or
derby throughout the game. There
was no 'kicking' at decision of the
umpire, no cat calls, and not sound
of discord from start to finish of the
game. There was not sound except
the ordinary roofing usual with a
crowd of base ball cranks.
The report that threats were made
or any firearms shown by any indi-
vidual or collection of individuals,
is absolutely and unquestionably
false as to fact or purpose. The
News stated at the time THAT the
Gainesville team was composed of a
gentlemanly set of young men, and
they made favorable impression in
the minds of our people. They play
ed a good, clean game"
But then the Montezuma "invin.
cibles" had to give an excuse to theil
home people, and the flash of guns
helped to make their fairy tale lurid

Wants to Open a Saloon.

Mrs.Jenny Falk ,proprietress of the
Arlington hotel, is having petition
circulated in the second ward for the
purpose of getting a permit to open
a saloon in that ward.
There never has been a saloon in
ward 2, and for that reason the sane
tion of a majority of the free holders
will have to be obtained before one
can be opened now. 1t is not likely
that the citizens of the ward, will
give their sanction to the project.
There seems to be a feeling that we
already have all the saloons neces-
sary to enable us to give practical
illustration of their benefits.

Peculiar Will Case.

An interesting will case was tried in
the Kings county ~surrogate's court. and
was decided in favor of the will, says a
New York dispatch. The plaintiffs
were the niece and husband of Susan s.
Allen, who died leaving all her money
to her friend and boarding mistress, and
who it was attempted to prove was in
sane at the time the will was drawn.
Mrs. Allen imagined she was called to
convert the heather Chinese, and began
operations on one Fong Gui. She con-
verified him and gave him q laundry,
which ~prospered. Mrs. Allen wanted
Gui to marry a white girl, who could
accompany her China as maid. When
approached on the subject Gui said,
'Tlotee out Mclean girl and Fong Gui
mally diam quick"
Mrs. Allen found the girl, but one
month was enough for Gui, and he
quietly sold the laundry and went to
San Francisco. Mrs. Allen became CON
WINGED that she had made a mistake as
to her being called to convert the
heather, made her will and died. The
contest followed.
