the details of the eventual compromise are unknowable, but it is believed that, beyond

stipulating for fr.'e trade and exacting guar- i

aniees or liroieonou aw .v,. iu Ireland, everything will lie yielded to

Mr. Pamell. As the Gladstone programme

is outlined, it contains a proviso that ire-

land shall oonaane to sena memuere w Westminster, but it is likely that he will nive wav on this point, as the Irish

do not wish imperial represeniauou. There will bo a Dublin Parliament supreme over Irish affairs, over tha police, taxation, courts, and fll internal matters. Ibis

The Press ABsociation says that Mr. Gladstone, foreseeing the increase in strength of the Parnell pnrty, dmfted a scheme four months ago for the self-gov ernment of Ireland, according to which the power of veto by the Crown could te exercised only on the advice of a privy council con.ven.tfd especially to discuss

the subject in question. The other pouris in the scheme were the same as already published. The project was submitted to a few political friends of Mr. Gladstone. Since the elections there have been no formal consultations on the subject, and it is not known whether or not the details ol the scheme have since been modified. It la snnnosed that Mr. Goscheu. who is al

most certain to be Chancellor of the Exchequer in the next Gladstone Cabinet, will

snnnort the scheme.

ter to cut off connection absolutely and to prepare for dealing with Ireland as nnopon foe than to arm traitors by the force of pretending to maintain unity without the powet

to enforce a single law disapproved at uuu Hn."

Sir Charles Dilke, iu a speech at Chelsea last night, expressed nnger at tho action oi the conservatives in re lecttog proffered sup

Opinions of Various Leaders, London special.

The opiniona of various leaders have

been sought on the subject of the Irish home-rule proposals, which have caused a ereat sensation in political circles. The

Pall Mall Oasetie having alleged that Esrl

Soenoer had acquiesced m the scnenm

Earl Spencer telegraphs: "No scheme of

home rule has received mv ailDroval.

Mr. Childeis telegraphs that he has no knowledge whatever of Gladstone's alleged

nroDosals.

Sir Charles Dilke says it is premature to

discuss the subject.

Mr. Heslv savs he cannot express c.ti

opinion on the subject before his party I

meets.

Mr. O'Connor declares that Ireland will

not be satisfied with less than Canada enjoys, and will not contribute to the British

exchequer.

Mayor Buiiivan, or xiuoun says: i

cannot understand how any assembly ctJi save what landlords call their interests.

They willpeitsh by the mexorable law of

nature. The minorities creed of politics Is

as safe in Ireland as m Lnglaud. Larger home rule will bo certain to work satiBfivstorily to both parties."

Tlie Mews In Ireland. Dublin dispatch. The editorials in the Freeman's Journal

and United Ireland regarding the situation

agree in the Htatement that if the Marquis

of HalisDury snouia oner oniy a wonniess scheme of home rule for Ireland the Conservative Government will inevitably lie de

feated by the combined efforts of the Lt d-

erals and Parnellites.

The Freeituins Journal says: "It is rea

sonable for "England to require a guarantee

for the protection of landlords lcgitimfito

interests. The most hopefnl scheme is for the" Irish Parliament to

purchase the land, repaying Kugland by annuity. England to apportion the pur

chase money and Ireland to deal with t he tenants. Failure to pay the annuity to the imperial exchequer would virtually imperil Ireland's independence. It iB, therefore, thought imperative to encourage Irish industries, which English legislation and un

fair competition by English capitalists have destroyed. But we are willing to restrict the power of protection, in order to assure England that our purpose is not a

Don Carlo claims that Ferdinand had no right to abolish the Salic law; that it is, therefore, still in force in Spain, and that he is Kim; by right. The growth of public sentiment is, however, iu favor of liberal government, and the possibility of Don Carlos, who iviuvsrtits uUrniuontano big

otry and intolerance, lwing called into Eower, is verv remote. A republic might e a possibility if .the Republicans were united among themselves, but they are not. Their loaders are divided; there is no cohesion iu the Republican purty. Besides, the Catholic Church and the property interests, two powerful factors in the politics of Spain, fear " k republio and are opposed to it. Don Carlos was bom MaiUS0, 118. His father, Don Juan, was tho brother of Charles VI. of Spain. As Charles VI. died 'without issue tiii rights devolved upon his brother and subsequently to the present Don Carlos. The- latter was educated in Austria, and was married iu 1867 to Margaret

i Jli.ii.hnii. sister of the nresent l-onito ae

Chambord ( Henry VI.) of France. Iu 1872 tho adherents of Don Carlos raisefl his standard in the noith of Spain, and iu July., of that year he published a proclamation

addressed lo the inhamtants or miaionia, Aragon. and Valencia, calling upou them to take up arms iu his cause. Don Carlos . - 1 .. .. - 1 f.Ti, .. .1

made his entry into npaiu iu ioio, uui u various govoruments from time to time in power at Madrid strove in vain to suppress the revolution. When Alfonso was called

to the throne Dou Carlos issued another proclamation calling upon his volunteers to coiitinm- iu their ettoits. exhorting them to remomoer their many brilliant achievements, and that they were fighting for the welfare of Spain. He also promised them to reform the government should he come to power. Alfonso's forces, however, made

continued advances. lorcing uie miuau,

July 18, ltttU, Carlos was expelled from

France on the ground of his having ostentatiously allied himself with the partisans of the Couite de Chambord. Dou Carlo has five children -the Infants. Blauca,born

in 1888; Iufnute Jiumc. born m 1870: Infanta

Elvira, born in 1871; Infante, Betnx, born in 1H74, and Infanta Alix, boni in 187C.

Don Carlos 1 a true scion or xiouroon, lilies and all. Since Henry V. of France refused the crown because the deputies would not permit him to change the tricolor for the flour de lis, there has been no such royal antiquari in upon the European political stage as Don Carlos. Both preserve the traditions of the fifteenth century with a tenncitv born aud bred in centuries of

commuual institutions, and s difficult to separate as life itself. The Don will not sanction the marriage of his son and the infanta sired by Alfonso, because he considers the mesalliance would ruin his chances to the throne. OKLAHOMA TERRITORY. Ex -Congressman Sidney Ctai'ko's Comprehensive Measure to Open I'p a I'art of the Indian Nation. Ex-Congressman Sidney C larke, of Kansas, has prepared a bill to lie presented to Congress organizing the new Territory of Oklahoma. The boundaries include the country within the present limits of Indian Territory kuown as Oklahoma, aud the pnblic laud strip north of the Pan-Handle of Texas. The bill provides for all the

necessary machinery for the executive, legislative, and judicial functions of a com.plete Territorial Government. The Indian tribes who had absolute titles by patent from the Vnited States are exempted from the operations of the bill. The unoccupied

Oklahoma land aud the public land strip are declared to be a part of the pnblic do

main and opened to settlement uncier tne homestead law, embracing about 7,000.000 acres.

Another section of the bm disposes or

the unoccupied portion of the Cherokee

Strip west of iM degrees of longitude to actual settlers only in tracts not to exceed 160 aores. at SI .25 per acre, the proceeds to be placed to the credit of the Cherokees, less the cost of sale and the. appropriations

already made for the payment of said wua. For the purpose of securing the assignment of homesteads in. ucveraUy to the Indians of the various tribes, their education and civilization, the reduction of the reservations, and the sale and settlement of the surplus lands, and the final adjustments of all questions relating to Indians, a commission is authorized to be appointed

by the President, composed oi wire civilians and two military officers. Full authority is given to the commission, under the direction of the President, to entor into such negotiations with the Indiuus as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the aot. The bill has been prepared at the request of the leading members of Congress and is one of the most coinpreh.'usivi- measures vet wiggested for the esttiblihiui'tit of a civil government aud the sidtlciiient of the troubles in the Indian Territory. Altogether it opens lo actual settlers not less than 13,000.000 acres of unocupted land, and does not interfere, without; their eouReut, with any of the reservatioDS now held by the Indians bv valid title. A determined effort is to be made this winter to secure the favorable action of Congress on this bill. Its friends will be fully prepared to answer all objections and to show that tho best interests of the Indians and the settlers will be subserved by the organization of the new Territory of Oklahoma.

INDIANA STATE NEWS. At Uockville, Tom Sullivan suddenly died whilo two doctors were trying; lo replace a dislocated shoulder. He hud several times before dislocated tho same shouUbr, aud when lie entered Dr. Cross's office he said "Doctor, that shoulder is out of place again." Dr. Cross tried to replace it, and, failing, called in Dr. Hillum. When both were working with the patient they noticed that his ftet were moving queerly. In a few minutes Sullivan wa-i d-ad. He was a hard drinker. The coroner's verdict was death from heart disease. Cornelius Gibbons, a farmer living

It is rather a new thing to find a sci

entific profession commending any of those methods by which beauty is artificially iiecured to the unfortunate from whom nature has withheld that sift. Th Medical Press has ventured

npon utte ring a word of praise in this direction, and it may be supposed that una at least of its learned readers

will be not lass generous in their ideas.

The obieot of such unwonted eulogy is

the American genius who has invented what th Press calls .a novel form of

in the first of which the shoulders

arms, and other parts to be beautified

is then wiped off, and the second ap

plication is made with cold cream. A thick layer of this is allowed to remain on the sis in for fifteen minutes rather a severe ordeal on one of those winter evenings known to -Boston and New York. After this has been rubbed off the surface is next covered with violet powder, and a process of "polishing" is then gone throng, at the end of . which the partsi so treated present the appeurance of polished marble. However this may be, the Medical Press takes upon itaolf to assure us that the harmfulness of the process is "exceedingly

slight" compared with the vieioua process of enameling as hitherto under

stood! Nevertheless, we have some

sort of recollection of having heard dreadful tales about violet powder when absorbed into the pores, and we rather fancy that there are ladies, both old and younir, who would be horrified

It is a curious faol that it is harder,

even now, to raise money for the higher education of young women than of young men. Prof, Fawcett and his wiffl Minted this out long since in

-EWian.l. and it is the same with

Americfi. To those who have is given

what is dona for young men is done eagerly and profusely, almost forced unon them : what is done for young

women comes grudgingly. In the uni

versity town where I live it ia found far easiir to obtain additional funds for the iilreadv disproportions' e endow-

nents for vounct men than to raise far

smaller amounts for women. When

ever tho president of the university

asks for an additional $100,000 for

bnildincr he soon has it. Three

such buildings, each coating more than

that amount (the Gynasium,. the Law

School, and the Physical Laboratory

have been built in this way, in elose

the moat suitable house in all Cam

dently seems to the ladies oi tne com mittee .mite a serious task to raise it

and the same thing is going on all

over the country.

How sho.ll we explain this wide

difference? It does not altogether lie, I suspect, in the selfishness of the male 1 sexa fact on whioh, as I have always j thought, Stuart Mill puts too much stress in hiti "Subjection of Women."
