The charter of the club was formally adopted by the organization and Mr. Samuel W. Trott was elected manager of the club. The resignation of Mr. Frank B. Smith asa director, on account of his election to the position of treasurer of the Columbia Athletic Club, was read and accepted and Mr. W. C. Stone was elected to fill the vacancy. An auditing committee was selected, composed of Messrs. Stone and Sutherland. Man- ager Trott made a short specch to the stock- holders, assuring them that there will be no difficulty in securing a team, but that in order to get really first-class men it will be necessary to move cautiously and that it will be im- petative to, keep the names of tho men lor whom he is after a secret even from the directors.

A FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY. Librarian Prince of the Patent Office Favors the Movement. 7 Mr. Howard L.

During thé late Indian troubles at Pine Ridge ® portion of the Cheyenne Indians living on this reservation were employed as government scouts. Gen.

THE FUNDS FOR THE EVICTED. Mr. Dillon Says They Will Not Be Used for Political Ends. Mr. John Dillon, Mr. T. P. Gill and Mr. and Mrs. Wm. O'Brien arrived in Paris yesterday. In an interview Mr. Dillon said he had made inquiries in regard to the matter and had found that there was absolutely no foundation for the statement which recently appeared in the Jn- suppressible to the effect that Mr. Harrington had held back the funds which had been col- lected in America for the relief of the evicted tenants in Ireland for the political advantage of Mr. Parnell. On the contrary, Mr. Dillon continued, Messrs. Webb, Kenny and Harring- ton were using the funds strictly in accordance with the agreement arrived at in America. Not a farthing had been used for any purpose con- nected with the present dispute over the Irish leadership. ““Tam happy to state,” said Mr. Dillon, “that both sides, including Mr. Parnell, have fo an arrangement whereby the personsevicted from their homes will be protected, quite apart from the dispute in regartto the leadership.” Mr. Parnell. speaking at Athlone, Ireland, yesterday, said that at this important turning point he did not doubt the result of Irelaud’s struggle for home rule. Expressions of opin- ions, biased by the evil influence prevalent in London and Westminster, were to him as chaff before the wind. Ireland would yet get a bet- ter home rule bill than Mr. G e's “maimed and whittled down measure.” ‘Mr. Parnell, in a letter to the Freeman's Journal, published yesterday, urges the attend- ance of the Irish parliamentary party at the re- opening of parliament. He says it is especially important that there be a full attendance of the Irish members when the land purchase bill reaches the committee stage. ‘The London Daily Chroniele (liberal) says it believes Mr. has received informal as- surance from Mr. Gladstone of his (Gladstone's) intention regarding another hothe rule bill. ——$_rr Suicide at » Potter-Bellew Performance.
