He accordingly offered his Salon pic- ture of last year for the American art exhibit in the exposition, with the result that he has been listed for a second medal. and Potter THE WHITE HOUSE GROUNDS AND STABLES. After reporting the White House grounds as being in excellent condition he says that dur- ing the present season it is proposed to remove the wooden stable from, the west section of the park and to complete the improvement of the portion immediately south of the State depart- ment, ‘Some years ago,” he remarks, “the country. The point of this was not lost on the court, Friday being fixed for the presentation of the freedom of the city of Ekinburgh to Parnell. Judge Hannen suggested that the at- torney general should finish with Parnell on Thureday. Mr. R. T. Reid, of counsel for other Irish members, then rose, saying he and his juniors had also been instructed by the Irish members they represented to withdraw. yesterday morning, and It Looks as if He Had Skipped—His Safe Combination Don’t Work. 1 Wacurra, Kax., July 16.—Ed, Paul, cashier | of the Pacific express company, did not appear | after waitmg an hour or two a messenger was sent to his rooms. The the State department. It is suggested that the propriety be considered of removing the stables from the park to a site on the opposite side of 17th street, where the necessary land can be purchased at a reasonable price. I am informed that wher the building was con- structed, some fifteen years ago, it was under- stood that it would be moved at some future time, and in laying foundations and running up the walls this fact was considered.” The next annual report will probably contain an estimate for this purpose. —————— THE CHEROKEE STRIP. The Government Will Not Allow Any Interference With Its Rights. Recent dispatches from the Indian territory state that the Cherokee cattle company have offered to lease the land in the Cherokee strip from the Indiams for « term of years, paying a large rental. It is further stated that the company will probably buy the land from the Indians. A commission has recently been appointed by the President to negotiate with the Indians for the purchase of this land by the government, with the intention of throwing it open to public settlement, Officials of the Interior department say that the offers alleged to have been made by the cattle company are evidently intended to embarrass the commission in its work. They claim that both the cattle com- ny and the more intelligent’ Indians are per- fectly aware of THE RIGHT OF THE UNITED STATES to these lands, and they know that the Indians can neither sell their lands nor lease them with- Judge Hannen tartly interposed that as Reid was no longer counsel he need not address the court. Mr. Lockwood, on behalf of the other re- maining members of parliament, then made a similar statement and left the court. The faces of all the judges during all this was a study. Judge Day, on the left, usually somno- lent, was alert and curious; Judge Smith, on the right, enjoyed it hugely; Judge Hannen, in the ceuter, had an air of offended dignity. On leaving the court I had a few words with Parnell, He said they had acted deliberately. They felt they had no alternative. “No, be- gorra,” said Biggar, “we could not assist at the farce any longer. ‘Their decision to screen Houston’ was only the culmination of a lo series of unfairness and partiality. We shoul: be fools to go on with the judicial farce.” Big- gar seems to put the case too strongly. Until the Houston affair there had been nothing very unfair, The judges have been biased, but not wilfully unfair. Judge Hannen has certainly been impartial. No one can accuse Day, for he has apparently slept with impartiality all through. But the decision not to probe the Pigott conspiracy or inquire into the genesis of the charges and allegations certainly re- duced the inquiry to a tarce, and the Irish members having all attended themselves for examination and thus disproved the imputa- tion of a desire to shirk inquiry are quite right to withdraw. fae ee eo THE PENTECUST SISTERS.

A rope dangled from the cross-beam, to one end of which was attached a 600-pound weight. There was no delay on the scaffold, and a minute later Bolak had stepped upon | the platform.

On the night of September 26, 1888, Bolak and Michael Bollinshire, both Hungarians and friends, sauntered out into the country from the rolling mill at Oxford, where they both were employed. Their erraud was ostensibly to pick apples. Some hours later a crew on @ railroad train heard two pistol shots and, on running along to the east of the tunnel on the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad near Oxford found a dead body. It proved to be that of Bollinshire. Investigation showed that the man had evidently first been hit by a iece of rail fence and knocked insensible, and wo shots fired into his body. There was ample evidence that the body had been dragged oe. entrusting her and his chiidren to stricted to Indian and Canadian teams. 13TH AND F STs. - 5 Palmer of Chicago, has bought Mr. Truesdell’s | Ot the consent of the government.
