 On March 8, 1889, Schuyler Colfax re- signed as Speaker ih order that he prepare for his inauguration as Vice. President. He called Representative James F. Wilson of Iowa to the chair and moved the election of Theodore M. Pomeroy of New York as Speaker. The motion was carried unantm ously, and for one day Mir. Pomeroy acted fin that capacity. The Fortieth Congress ended on March 4. and James c. Blaine was elected Speaker of the Forty first. Mir.

Stage and Peerawe Again.

London. Dec. 5.-Yet another stage and peerage romance reached its hap- py ending a few days since in a quiet little wedding at St. James's Church, Picadilly, between a pretty young comedy actress and the son of a peer.
 The happy couple. who have now left London on their honeymoon. Viscount Bridgeport and Miss Ethel Kendall, known to theatre-goers as Miss Eileen Orme. She is related to the heroine of another recent stage romance; her cousin being Miss Denise Orme, whose marriage to the Hon. John Yarde- Butler took place last year. She is only 1s years old, while the bride- groom Is 27.
 The marriage was kept a strict se- cret, only a few close friends and rel- atives knowing that 1t took place. Among those present at the church were Mir. and Mrs. YaFde- Butler, the latter being one of those who signed the register.

SHAW Is SARCASTIC

Dramatist Rails at Conditions That Now Prevail in England Where They
 Care Nothing for R0nkn.

Liverpool, Dec. 5.--George Bernard Shaw delivering an address at a Book exhibition hsre. said he had spent quito . part of his life going about England searching for books. It was extremely difficult to find any, and yet there were any number of places where he could buy a drink. He was once interested in e large part of Lon don. the St. Pancras district, and 1t was a strange thing that while he could buy sex tant here he could not buy book. The same ting was true to an amazing extent all over England. Had any person In Liv- erpol during the last twenty-five years been mad anoug to open a bOokshopf He was told there was one. T strongly recommend the man who opened that booSshop to the attention of your municipal authority" said Mir. Shaw, amid laughter. We spent enor- nous sums on education and yet the net re- suit of it was that apparently people did not read anything. Wsg reading good hahit, did It make people betterf Certain ly 1t was a most horribly unsoeiabie thing,

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY WAS
 REPORTED FROM DUEL IN
A Woman Was Thrown Over the CIiR By Her Demented Sister
 ta.Lag.


 London, Dec 5.--One of the most as- founding tragedies of modern years Is reported from Dublin. At the outset 1t was thought that a terrible murder had been committed by tramps, but further investigations suggest that Mrs. Lloyd, the wife of highly placed official in the postoffice, met her death In a strugble with her sister-in-law. Mrs. Earls, who was attacked by a sudden it of mania.
 Mrs. Lloyd left home in company with Mrs. Earls last Monday evening to walk over the summit of Howth Hill to a cottage near the Bailey Light house, where they were in the habit of getting supplies of eggs. When darkness set in and they had not re- turned. a search party went out, and along the lofty cliffs, which have a sheer fall of 200 feet to the sea, they came on signs of a desperate struggle. Hairpins and climbs, and a couple of hats. were found on the pathway. and not far off was the unconscious form of Mrs Earls. There was no sign of Mrs. Lloyd, for whom fruitless search was made all night by the coast guards and police.
 Mrs. Earls was carried home, and in the small hours of the morning was able to tell her story, which was that as they were on their way hon1eward in the gath ering darkness they were beset at @ dangerous point overlooking the cliffs by two tramps. who demanded money with menaces. When their de- mand was refused the men attacked them, and in the ensuing struggle Mrs. Lloyd was thrust over the precipice, while she herself became unconscious, giving the men an opportunity to get away.
 Mrs. Lloyd's body was found on the following morning by & coastguard at the base of the jagged rocks, while few yards away lay her pet dog, also evidently killed by its fall. The story, on being circulated. created tremen- dous sensation. and all day long the police searched the hill and the ad- joining district unsuccessfully for the supposed murderers. At the inquest, however. an explanation even more sensational than the surviving lady's story, was brought out in the evidence of the dead woman's husband.
 MT. Lloyd told how Mrs. Earls. his sister, who was e member of his house. hold. was widow whose mind had be- come unhinged by the sudden death of her husband. On one occasion she had attempted to commit suicide. and lat terly had been very Respondent. of.en expressing wish "to be with her dear husband"
 Tn consequence of her recent de- meanor, Mir. Lloyd said he was driven to the conclusion that on Monday she had suddenly become insane on the cliff walk, that she probably attempted to throw herself into the sea, and that Mrs. Lloyd, who. he observed path eti- cally. was a noble little woman" in her efforts to save her had met her own terrible death.
 The evidence of a local medical man who knows Mrs. Earis fully, bore out the evidence as to her insanity, and both police and jury accepting this theory, a verdict in accordance with it was returned.

A FRENCH HOAX.
Premier saAtected to PeeuIiaR Embai
 wmawnAwt

rmsment.
 ParIs Dec. E.-That revered and aus gust body, the Academic Francaise. has just been the victim of & stupid hoax. Recently the secretary received a letter written on the oficiel note paper of the Ministry of the Interior and signed Georges Clennenceau. In this communication the Premier ex- pressed himself as wishing to become one of the immortal forty" and ac. cordingly offered himself as candi- date for one of the vacant chairs. The secretary, convinced of the authentic" ity of the letter, wrote c formal ac- knowIedgment and promised to for" ward to M. Ciemenceau certain nec- essary documents to fill up.
 When NJ. Clemenceau received the Academy's letter he was the most per plexed mau in Paris. He rushed to the telephone---forgetting in his ex' citement that telephones have no pFac- tical value in Paris at present. Then he sent of & special messenger to de- rnand an explanation from the Acad- emy. The envoy speedily returned bearing what purported to be M. Clem- enceau's own letter. The only thing genuine about 1t was the letter paper. The signature had been forged, and the handwriting bore but little re- sembfance to the cran1ped caligraphy of the Premier. .,.s.s....
 Here the little joke ended but the police. who think that the author may be tempted to try his hand upon pub. iic documents of greater value. are as- siduously endeavoring to make his ac- Quaintance.

It used to trouble me in my innocent youth. but as I got older and more interruptions began to discover that 1t was not necessary for me to gratify 1t. I had simply to look intel lgent as far as possible and they would believe It." Proceeding, he urged that one could learn everything to be learned from the Bihle. adding "sll the litsratures in the world are Bibles, and English literature Is one of the most magnificent Bibles in exist enes." Nothing exhiarated him more than the splendid amount of literary talent at the present day, especially the part of men under thirty, who were doing work which he only painfully learned to dc long after that age.

A Municipal Theatre.

Mir Shaw added:-"You want a munich pal theatre in Liverpool. People who don't go to picture galleries. and don't go to hear orchestras, so to the theatre. One of the most momentous facts of the times is that recent church censuses have shown that the English nation has given up going to church and has taken to going to the ths- atre. That may be a great calamity or tt may be a very good thing. The theatre seems to have taken the place of thA church. Remember, e theatre, just as much as a church. Is a place where two or three are gathered together, and there is no reason why there should be less sanetity about a theatre than about Cathedral. In his opinion, they should place the the- atre as much above commercial specuiatiob and above the chances of Commerce as they placed their Cathedral because essentially it was the same sort of place.
