GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Irish National Land League Becoming Hard Pressed for Money. Special to the Indianapolis JournaL London, Oct. 22. Letters and telegrams from Dublin published in London papers represent the Irish National League as rooro closely pressed for money thdn had been suspected. The special collections taken in tho churches will not more than defray the ordinary expenses of tho league. It is asserted by Timothy Harrington and other prominent leaguers that the increased activity of the landlords at this juncture is in pursuance of a concerted plan to embarrass the league at a time when it is believed to be 'straitened for funds by throwing upon it for support a much larger nnmber of evicted tenants. The number to be supported has certainly increased of late, while the funds, with the closest economy of administration, have hardly met the expenditure Should this continue, it is said, a general election, which the government at any favorable moment may precipitate, would iind the home-rule party disabled in advance of the encounter.

He is popularly described as a "queer duck," though he is weU-liked by all who know him. He was "born in North Carolina and has just secured a government appointment at Washington. During the war Lincoln, who was a sailor almost from childhood, was quartermaster on the tug Saugus. After the fight at Fort Fisher the Monitor was compelled to start to Washington for repairs. Things were in such a critical state, however, that the boat, with but one sound gun left, steamed up the James and fought with that gun until Richmond fell. In Lincoln's own words his story is told: "April 14, 1865, there was a great commotion in the yard at Washington, where we were at anchor. In a moment President Lincoln came on board. I was ordered to do sometning. When he heard my name called, he said: Is youx name Lincoln?' Yes,' said I; 'and is your name Lincoln, too!' " It is said he. 'Are you any relation of mine!' asked the President. 1 don't know,1 1 replied: 4but as everybody calls you uncle, 1 guess you are my uncle, too.' "Ho laughed and said: 'I'll see yon again in a few days "He and his wife strolled about the vessel, and went direct to the theater, where ne was shot. We heard the news about 10 o'clock. We lay there at the wharf until toward the last of the mc nth. when one Bight a closed carriage drove up and Payne, one of the assassins, came aboard. He appeared to . be about nineteen years of age., very tall, with dark hair, closely cropped, and blood all over his clothe "Next night a steamer came np alongside us with aobut twenty-five members of the Second New York Light Cavalry on board. We prepared to receive their prisoners. The deck of the steamer was about six inches higher than the deck of the Monitor, which was painted the color of the water. The first prisoner, instead of stepping on our deck, stepped plump into the water. His hands were tied behind him and he went down like a stone. I took a lantern, and, holding it between the vessels, caught him by the back of his neck as he came up and asked, 'What are you doing?' 'That's Herrold,' said someone. 'Who's Herrold?' I asked. ls ho the fellow that writes for the New York Herald?' I didn't know who Herrold was, and the soldiers laughed at the combination. Herrold was a handsome, Blender fellow of nineteen. Next a plank was placed across the chasm, and Booth's body was slid across. T remember well ho w he looked. His nose was bruised and his hair was pushed back above bis forehe2d. . His mustache was heavy and very black, and there was a three days' growth of beard on his face. One arm was naked, and his left leg was wrapped in heavy brown paper.' His clothing was carefully searched for money and papers. Even the paper was taken off his leg, which had turned black. He had on one boot and one shoe. The shoe was loft lying on the deck, and some days later sold for 5. We held the lanterns, and the doctor cut off his head to trace the bullet through his neck. Tho body was next cut open lengthwise. Tho organs were all removed and examined, and all put back except the heart, which was of abnormal size. The heart is on exhibition' at Washington now. The body with the head was wrapped in a blanket and sent away in a boat That was tho last I saw of it The sailors who took it ashore told me they landed it at the old penitentiary, but did not seo what was done with it'1 The Great Southern Scarecrow. Memphis Avalanche. Nevertheless it ia to be regretted that any bection of the-Union is solid, or rather that there is any necessity that it should he bo. It is essential to tho welfare of the South, as long as the negro is a voter, that tho South should continue to be solid. That question out of the way there would be a general breaking up of the sectional lines. . , . Mr. Sage Glres Cornell 8200,000. Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 22.

Pennsylvania st. showed an endowment of a oout $0,000,000 and annual income of XX),00Q. Among the trustees recently elected is Andrew Carnegie, Unskilled Doctors for Animals. National Stockman. There are in tho country many persons who "practice medicine'' on our dumb animals in a way that if it were applied to the human family would soon bo stopped by rigid laws. A great many who donot know enough or do not care to take the responsibility of doctoring humanity drop into the ranks of yeterinaries. and tho results of their carelessness and ipnorance are seen wherever thev locate, And this is likely one reason why so many hesitate to patronize veterinary practitioners. The amount of damage that has been and is being dono by incompetent men of this profession is enormous, and strict laws should be en forced in every State to keep ouacks and ignorant men from "practicing" on valuable stock. There are, however, many intelligent and competent veterinarians, and the skill of such should be more generally taken advantage of than is the case at present. A good veterinarian is a useful man, but any other kind is a double injury to his patrons and to the profession. Democratio Figuring. San Francisco Chronicle. The Democratic press figures that the McKinley bill has raised tho average of luuu vuui&cs. iua cuiiuis arrive at. iLiis curious conclusion by coniimng themselves strictly to those articles upon which the duty is retained by the bill, and entirely ignoring the 1S3 reductions and the forty new classes put on the free list By the same method of calculation, if the duty were removed from every article but one, and that remained at C5 per cent... the Democrats could still figure out increased taxation. The Ohio Democracy. Toledo Blade. The information from Lima is to tho effect that Calvin Hrice. who recently returned from New York, is running a bureau in the interest of his own congressional candidates, with a special clerk and "educational distributor" for each district in which he has personal candidates. Mr. Brice appears to be the Democratio party in Ohio. i A Discrepancy Somewhere. Detroit Tribune. Congressman Bynnm, of Indiana, seems to be pretty well known in his own State, But to know him is not to love him, according to the published reports. The lloosier papers are quoting Bynum vs. Bynurn very freely, and the reader mut necessarily come to the conclusion that both of them can't be telling the truth. Dangerous to the Democracy Boston JournaL The Bennett school law'in Wisconsin has increased the school attendance 20.000 in a single year. It is no wonder that the Wiscon.sin Democracy regards the law an adangerou innovation.
