TWENTY DEATHS
Losnos, May 10.—Gladstone's voici- at
ou t30t of his speech in advocacy of his
motion for a second reading of the Home
Kale bill was indistinct, hoarse and feeble;
but it cleared as he proceeded. He said he
desired at the opening to make a statement
of his personal position, which he had en
tirely refrained from making when he intro
duced the bill. Ho hud never at any period
deemed Home Rule in Ireland as incompat
ible with imperial unity (cries of oh! oh!)
That was exactly so (cheers). . Contradic
tion had come from some members who
visited Midlothian, making speeches staffed
full of totally untrue aifd worthless asser
tions (oh! oh! and cheers). In 1871 he had
expressed great satisfatlon with which ho
hail heard the statements of supporters of
Rome Rule as those statements contem
plated nothing leading to n severance of the
Empire. (P«rnellite cheers).
Two questions always presented them
selves to his mind regarding Home Rule.
Firstlv, it must be shown thut it was de
sired by a great mass of the population of
Ireland. That condition had never been
absolutely and unequivocally present until
the passing of representation of people act
(cheers); secondly, was Home Rule com
patible with unity of Empire? That ques
tion had been answered by Purnell who had
declared that what he songbt under the
nniue of Home Rule was simply autonomy
of Ireland.
The speaker had been charged with ex
perimenting in politics without grave cause.
Here they had the gravest of causes, for
they were dealing with a people and country
whose radical sympathies were against the
law, especially the criminal law, which had
never obtained the confidence or obedience
of Irish people. Alternative coercive and
reform measures had been tried; they had
equally failed to conciliate. The medicine
of coercion especially had been the medicine
continually applied in increasing doses and
with diminishing results. [Parnellite
cheers. |
Here the speaker reviewed the history of
the pest in an endeavor to prove that the
only thorough measure which would he
..atisfactory to Ireland was now favorable,
ns regards the autonomy of Ireland being a
menace to the unity of the empire. Here-
minded the house that the same argument
was employed against Canadian independ
ence, when it was determined to concede
Home Rule to Canada. Canada was in the
precise temper attributed to Ire
land today. Canada did not get
Home Rule because she was loyal
uid friendly. She was now loyal and
friendly because she haul got home rule.
[Irish cheers.) He (Gladstone) sat in
Parliament during the whole Canadian con
troversy, taking as a young man sn active
pari in the discussion. What was the nature
of the Canadian vote? The caso of Canada
was not parallel to the ease of Ireland.
[Opposition cheers.) Not in every particular,
so the bill offered to Ireland is different in
important details from acts, which disposed
of the case of Canada. But although not
parallel their positions are apalagous. What
vm the issue in The case of
CtnxJa? The government from Downing
street (these words embrace the whole con
troversy; the government from Downing
stmt, meaning of coarse the government
from Westminister. [Hear, hear,) what
vm the cry of those who resisted antonomy
in Carla? It was the cry which has slept
acquiring vigor from sleeping.
The government was also willing to an!
point a joint commission from Engl sh and
Irish ’arlmment, which would meet from
time to time to consider some questions of
imperial or common interest. No great
question, snob as the succession to the
crown, ought to fall under discussion of
this secondary authority, hnt many ques-
lions, such as treaties of commerce, might
require direct communication between
both parliaments. He would, therefore,
propose on behalf of the government some
plan of this kind. He proceeded to ex
plain that the government remained unde
cided as to the conditions under which the
members or an Irish commission
should appenr in the Imperial Parliament.
1 he government did not consider this to he
a vital point. In hiR opinion, if the Irish
members came back in any number, it
w'ould be necessary to devise a new system
of elections. He wonld certainly
have no jealousy of the Irish mem
bers, it they should reappear
tu their force. He would rathei have them
amply than scantily end jealously treated.
In conclusion he declared that the main ob-
ect of the bill was to abolish the root and
tranch of discontent prevailing in Ireland,
and to restore social order by the removal,
not merely of the symptoms, but of the
canoes of that discontent. If opponents
of the bill had an alternative policy, what
was it, he asked. If Lord Randolph cimreh-
hill should undertake the task of settling
Ireland, what did ho mean to do? Was his
plan that proposed by tho loyalists in Bel
fast last November? The English govern
ment might he daring,but not so daring os to
undertake to reconstruct the Irish govern
ment without touching the legislative diffi
culty. If Lord Hartington Imd a plan let
him declare it. He appealed to Lord Hart-
ington to stato his solution of the Irish
problem.
They had reached a crisis in the history
of the nation. Tho path of boldness was
the only path of safety. [Cheers.)
All men ought to know their own mind,
ought to tell it. The fate of Ireland could
not he cast into a lottery of politics. [Par-
nellitfl cheers. | He had been told that he
was steering Ireland to certain ruin. Let the
opponents show the way to escape. Let Lord
llartington, in insuring the rejection of the
bill, tread a visible andjpalpuble rood through
the darkness. [Cheers.) Members of the
House have betore them a great opportu
nity to close a strife of seven hundred
years, aye, of knitting by bonds firmer and
higher than heretofore, the heart and af
fections of the Irish people, and cementing
the noble fabric of the British nation."
[Loud and prolonged cheers.)
Lord Gladstone was followed by Lord
Hartington, who, when rising, was greeted
with cheers. He asked if Parnell had evor
stopped short of asking for complete inde
pendence and restoration of Ireland to her
peace among the nations of the world. He
failed to remember a single instance in
which Gladstone hod taken the course he
now asked the dissentters to tako, who
were unprepared to suggest in what direc
tion tho measure before the House could
be immediately revised. Ho believed that
a conclusion made to-night would not meet
the demands of Chamberlain. In con
clusion, he moved thut the bill be read six
months hence.
The debate was adjourned until Thurs
day.

More Anarchists Dead and Dying From
Stuff Taken In the Looted Drug store.
Chicago, May 11.—It has been ascer
tained that of the Polish and Bohemian ri
oters who regaled themselves with llqnid
refreshments when they sacked the drug
store at Centro avenne and Eighteenth
streots last Wednesday, eight have died,
and at least four more are known to be
beyond hopo of recovery. The police have
been too lunch occnpled with other matters
to hunt those who were reported Ul, bnt a
physician boa been found who has attended
some of the victims. Ho said it was un-
donbtediy true that the men had been poi
soned by drinking tho contents of bottles
the wrecked drug store.
The stuff taken was mostly wine of col-
cblcnm, which greatly resembles sherry wino
and has n strong smell of alcohol. Tho
doctor said, “it is a virulent poison, and is
almost certain death if taken into tho stone
aeh in any quantity over a spoonful I
hsve treated four and have now in my care
three, who are suffering from an overdose
of tincture of paregoric, no doubt taken at
the same time oa the colcbicnm, and under
the supposition that it was liquor of some
kind." The doctor gave the names of fonr
who had died under his own notice, and
fonr treated by another physician. All are
of the unpronounceable Bohemian or Polish
orthography.
Kansas City, May 11.—A fearfnl storm of
wind nnd rain swept over this city to-day,
continuing from 11 o'clock nntil noon.
The oonrt house on Second street was to.
tally demolished above the second Btory.
Latlirop School bnilding, on Eighth
street, was partially wrecked, and many
children were caught in the ruins.
An overall factory, on Second street, was
blown down here.
Eight girls have been taken out of the
overall factory, four of whom are dead.
Many others are in the ruins, hnt there is
scarcely hopo for their lives. ,
in the confusion it is impossible to ascer
tain definitely tho extent of tho calamity,
hut it is said over twenty employes are im
prisoned in the basement of the factory.
The disastrous fury of the storm was
confined to the north end of the city, ex
cept in the destruction of tho Lathrop
school building on Eighth streot. The
buildings generally, excepting those men
tioned, withstood the fury of tho storm.
At 3 p. m. os nearly as can bo learned,
amid the intense excitement and confusion,
about twenty persons are known to be
dead. At Lathrop school eleven children
are reported dead. Of four buildings
wrecked all were more or less unsound.
The school building has been twice con
demned, and the conrt-honse by many was
considered unsafe. No one was killed ex
cept in these fonr honses.
The storm although entailing such
heavy loss of life, was nothing of
the nature of the tornado that visited tho
city three years ago. It was a violent wind
accompanied by flood of water and some
bail which turned many of the streets into
rivers. Signs and shutters, chimneys, etc.,
were blown with the gale, and a number of
vehicles were overturned in the streets.
Black clonds that rolled over tho city
created almost darkness of night, and mnde
timid ones run in terror iu cellars. The
streets were entirely deserted, and in some in
stances horses were seen wandering about
attached to vehicles and seeking refuge from
the pelting storm. .
'I he old water-works bnilding, near the
court bouse, was blown down.
At the Western Union telegraph office,
hut one wire is working out of the city.
Communication has been established with
St. Lonis over that wire by way of Dallas,
Galveston, New Orleans and Memphis.
One span at the north end of the railroad
bridga across the Missouri river was blown
into the river, blocking tho Hannibal and
St. Joseph, Rock Island, Wabash and Kan
sas City, St. Joe and Conncii Bluffs roads.
The Lathrop school building was sur
mounted by a tower with a heavy boll.
Tills tower was blown over and the bell
went through the roof, carrying down the
different floors to the bailment' Tho house
was crowded with children. Twelve of
these have been taken out of tho ruins dead
many others are injured.
An overall factory was leveled with the
ground. Four girls have been taken from
the wreck dead, and n number are wounded
and others are still missing. Deputy Sheriff
Dougherty was killed in the court house.
Judge Stover had adjourned court only five
minutes before the building was wrecked.
A portion of the roof Ml upon the chnir
be had just vacated. Frank Smith of Smith
A Moffett's spice mill was killed in the
ruin* of tria establishment, and his partnor,

The committee appointed to prepare a memorial
touching the life ami character of the Hon. George
T. Bartlett, deceased, beg leave to submit the fol
lowing report:
Death, who is ever hovering about onr homes, is
constantly reminding us of the brevity and uncer
tainty of human life. Every birth-cry is answered
by the death-groan of some soul taking it* Right
from time to eternity. Generation follows genera
tion iu its rapid march to the grave, and tho earth
is rapidly becoming a vast burial ground for the
dead. Well may we exclaim with the great Apostle,
'here we have no continuing ci-y,” and utter the
prayer of the Psalmist “Bo teach us to number our
dsys that we may a;ply our hearts unto Wisdom.”
Many die and leave nothing behind to distinguish
their lives or to perpetuate their memory. Over the
graves of such it is better to cast tbo mantle of ob
livion. But when uue dies who was honored by his
fellow-men with distinguishing marks of their con-
deuce, and whose deeds of affection and kluduess
are cherished by bis family and friends as a price
less heritage, it is the privilege, as well as the doty
of bis surviving contemporaries to offer a tribute to
his memory and to m*ke an enduring record of his
virtues. Alas! that the •'span of life” of such men
should be so brief—for brief it is even wbeu they
hsve been permitted to dwell amongst us the al-
lotted period of "three-score >ears auU teu." How
brief was the life of our lamented irieud and
brother to those who knew and loved him—to those
who were his intimate associates and companions!
How difficult it is to realize that his bright and
genial spirit has taken it* flight, and that his noble
heart has ceased to beat! But it is lameutably truo
that the places which once knew him—tho Bunch,
the Bar, the Legislative HaU, the social circle and
the family Urcside, will know him no moro for-
recorded on tbeminntes of the Superior Court of
Bibb county as an enduring tribute to the memory
of our lamented friend.
Third, That tho Clerk of this Court be requested
to transmit a certified copy of these proceedings

Children Taken with the Dimuo After
Drluking Milk of a Cow Hltten by a Hog.
Little Rock, May 11.—A dog belonging
to A. J. Hall, a farmer living near Colcott,
near this city, went mad last week, and
among the animals which it wounded in its
wandering about the farm was a milch cow.
The cow showed no signs of being affected
by the wonnd, and it was thought that hy
drophobia would not mult. Yesterday,
however, the animal showed decided symp
toms, and at the same time the farmer's
two little children, who had been nourished
with the cow’s milk, exhibited similar ay mp-
toms, and are in a critical condition, suffer
ing moat terrible agonies. Other members
of the family are also ill, but their symp
toms are not to alarming as those ox the
•hildren, and some hope is expressed that
they may recover. *
The Apostle of Anarchy Palled by the Heels
Froui Beneath a Woman's Ittd.
Xkw York, May 11.—John Moat, the
anarchist nnd agitator, was arrested to
night at tho house of Mrs. Fisher, No. 1D8
Allen street. Inspector Byrnes and four of
his men made the arrest Most endeavored
to elude the officers by crawling under the
bed of one of the female inmates of the
house, with whom he is said to havo been
a long time intimate.
The detectives secured the anarchist a
few hours after locating him. When the
**apostle of anarchy" was palled by the
heels from under the bed he presented a
sorry spectacle. "His bulbt head and
puffy jowls," so said one o! tbe officers,
"were covered with dost and dirt" He be
came himself, however, and in a short time
waved his arm aloft and shouted a demand
tor liberty for the people. He was hand*
cuffed and taken to police headquarter**,
where he was locked up. He looked th<
picture of dejection.
Host, since he went biding, has spent
much of his time in Newark, N. J., and on
Jersey City Heights. Most was found by
tracking a man who sells him white paper
for his anarchist paper. In the nouse
where he was arrested wai found a Win
chester repeating rifle with a bayonet, and
books upon dynamite, bombs and kindred
topics.
Although Judge Bartlett died before he hod ap
parently reached the zenith of bis uzefulneite, be
lived through au eventful period in the history of
the Statu and the country. liThls boyhood, the
ueauu, m well m the perpetuity of the government,
was gravely threatened by the nullification excite
ment in South Carolina, and, before be had passed
the meridian of klslifo, the greatest conflict of
modern times—“tbe war between tbe Htates," iu
which he bore au honorable part—challenged the
attention of tt>ecivilized world. He was born on tbe
farm of bis father, Abner Bartlett, Esq., near Mon-
ttcello, in Jasper county, Georgia,-on the 2 stdsy
of August, iB'Ji. From early boyhood until he was
sixteen years old, he attended school at the Mon-
tlcello Academy, and was then matriculated aa a
student iu Franklin College, now the 8ls e Univer
sity, at Alliens. He was. during UU connection
with that institution, iu the same class with Ben
jamin H. Hill in 1M43. lieturning to Montictllo bo
entered the offica of ^Ieasis. JM ward T. A Joshua
Hill, as a law student, and.fsfter prosecuting his
studies under the superintendence of those distin
guished lawyers for nearly tWQ years, wai admitted
to the bar iu 1845, Oponing an office at Monticule
immediately thereafter, his talents and familiarity
with the law attracted early attention, and be did
nut long remain “a briefless barrister." He rose so
rapidly In his profession that in 1M9, leas than four
years after his admission to the bar, he was elected
by the Legislature to the highly responsible posi
tion of Solicitor-General of the Octnulgee circuit
His incumbency of this office for a number of years
gave him considerable prominence, and so faith-
fully and ably did be discharge Us duties that it
greatly added to hie profeeslonal reputation. Whilst
occupying this position he he was brought into
frequent antagonism with some of the greatest
* wyers of tba State—such a* Robert Toombs, Fran-
-_tS. (’one, Iverson L. Harris and others—and not
withstanding his comparative youth, he always ac
quitted himself with credit. Between himself and
Gen. Toombs, for whom be had the most exalted
admiration, a wsrm friendship sprang up which
continued until his death.
The people of Jasper county elected him to rep
resent them in the cute Senate for the sessions of
1*67 and ImM, and so acrepUbls to them wss bis
service in that body, that he was re-elected m 1M51> for
another term. Thus it was that he was a member
of the upper house of the General Assembly dur
ing the exciting and eventful session of i860, whan
the act was pas sad calling together the convention
which adopted the ordinance of secession. Always
taking a conspicuous part in th* deliberations of
that body whilst he was a member, be waa espe
cially conspicuous in the exciting and ofUlmea an
gry debates which took place during the session
which preceded the war. The limit* appropriate to
each a paper as toil do not admit of a detailed ref
erence to these debates or to tbe part which he bora
iu them. Suffice it to say that, a man of ardent
temperament and always independent and earnest
in his utterances, his apeecbes were characterized
by tbe warmest devotion to the cause of the South,
and breathed a spirit of intense consecration to the
intereita of his native State.
When the tocsin of war was sounded and Federal
armies wart being organized to invade and conquer
the South, no one rushed to her defence more ea
gerly than he. Thoroughly convinced of tho right-
eouanssa of her cause, and burning with patriotic
seal for her honor and welfare, he,early In the con

What llecnine of a North Carolina Man
Who Sought Adventure.
A special to tlie l’liilailclphia Times from
WiustuD, N. C., .luted the 7lh iust., says:
Captain D. D. Smith, commander of
Knlakna’s body-guard, King of the Sand
wich Islands, is on a short visit at his old
home in Wilks connty. Fourteen years ago
ho was a beardless youth employed in a
country store in the western part of this
Stiteat usultry of $100 per.year. Heauved
enough money from his moagre earnings to
take him to Louisville, Ky., where he road
medicine. After that ho practiced in the
Indian Territory. The desire to see the
world afterward took him to Rnusil and
around the world to China, Japan, and
finally ho landed nt the Sandwich Islands.
There bo mado himself so nsefnl to tho
government that he was appointed to the
command of tbe King's hody-gnard. His
company consistod of Bixty native soldiers
and a baud of thirty-aeven native musicians.
That the King imposes the most implicit
confidence in Captain Smith may be known
by the fact that he la sept by the King to
look after tho Hawaiian exhibit at New Or
leans, front whence he has just come. After
visiting his old home Captain Smith will
proceed to Washington, on business for his
king, Then h* will go to Lvnn, Massa
chusetts, to buy a plant to famish Hono
lulu with electric lights. Ho will also pro
cure incandescent lights for the royal palaco.
After that be will rotnrn to Honolulu, where
he is dne on tho 1.7th of Jano. Captain
Smith has brought with hint photographs
of tbe roynl family, and views ot Honolnln,
street scenes, farm honses, and a group of
cannibals with whom Captain Smith had

WRECKED ON A PACIFIC ISLAND.
Sailor CaMtatva,. Who Paired a rteoiant
Thun With the Native.-
Joanpb Rrinskin an<l Onstavns Wens-
swen.1, sailors, jast arrived in this port, tell
a romantic story ol shipwreck ami residence
on x small island on the Carolina Oronp,
among tbe natives, (or fifteen months.
They ssiled (rom New Castle, Australia,
November fi, 18Ht, on the Australian bark
Bothwick Castle, (or Amoy, Chins. All
wont well until they arrived in latitude
forty-five degrees north, when the osptain
lost his reckoning and ran onto! his oonrae,
striking on a reef of the Mokin Isle, in ths
Carolino Orottp, January 3d following. The
ship went down at noon.
The crew of thirteen man took to the
boats nnd saved a small quantity of food
and clothing, reaching tha island of Mokin
with great difficnlty. To tMr irirrtoi
and joy they fonnd the spot to be inhab
ited. They were treated very kindly by tho
people, who extended to them every hos-
riteuty. They were taken to the huts of
he inhabitant, and made at home. Tho
natives are described os fine looking peo
ple, bnt have very little intercourse with
tbe outside world. After a sojourn of a
year and a quarter Rrinskin anil Wens-
wend were taken off the island and finally
brought to this port by tbo ship II. L.
Tiernan.
