ISID'S'MPLIS LONDON", Jan.15. To imprison member of Parliament for six months for instituting a boycott is not with out its interesting features, ev., 1n King Edward's staid realm, conse quently when that fate befel! one re cently it created something of a stir. Mr. James P. Parrel, a Nationalist Member from North Longford, Ire land, is the. unfortunate M. P. He conducts a newspaper in his home county, and, in defiance of a court's erder, he published the announce ments of boycottsagainst three politi cal enemies. Mr. Farrell's case is similar in many respects to that of your own If r. Samuel Gompers,' presi dent of the American Federation of Labor, whose recent sentence created widespread interestjn labor and soc ialist circles in England. ' Now Mr. Farrell was given opport unity to avoid a term in prison if he would promise to reftain from repeat ing his offence. This he declined to do, and in his defense offered the rath er unusual plea that he should be granted immunity because "boycott ing had Scriptural sanction." He add ed that the victims of his boycott were only temporary objects of his wrath and consequently it was his intention to "only treat them as the publican and the heathen." Mr. Farrell's argument might have deeply impressed some presiding judges, but not so in this case. The procedure of King Edward's courts is very serious, made very much more so by the bewigged and black robed personage who occupies the .exalted position of presiding judge. His at titude toward tne man on trial is tnat , a. the English society woman in le is guilty until he proves himself in- needy circumstances. The preliminaries regret that "the Liberal Government had instituted prosecution against me i in those days of peace and good will Many a time 1 liave travelled from home in the dead of night to vote for the Liberal Government in London, and here is my reward," he added. Several rich American mothers now in London parading their marriage able daughters before the admiring gaze of coronetted, and impecunious, bachelors are wondering at the nar rowness of their escape from the net of a certain hard-up English society woman, abetted by a marriage broker and moneylender. This Stcfry is an entertaining one as a choice morsel of gossip, and shows that "buying wife," at least through a broker, is quite as risky a business as buying a horse. Lord A, a nobleman of antique fan ily remarkable chiefly for his ability to lose at bridge, got deeply into the debt of a well-known moneylender, whose office safe contains mortgages on several leading British titles. This moneylender assumed that the time had arrived for Lord A to marry, and that his bride should, of course be a wealthy one, that being the only way for the nobleman to pay his debts. The moneylender, after brushing the cobwebs from Lord A's coronet,quiet ly proposed him to a London marri age broker as a candidate form mat rimony. On his side the nobleman had to offer a fairly ancient title and family name, which he was prepared to share with a lady who would con tribute the cash so badly needed. The agent knew of just such a bride 1 the person of an American heiress, whose ambitious mother, formerly of New York, has for the past two sea sons been striving with lavish enter tainment to captivate exclusive -Lon don society. Arrangements for the introduction of Lord A to the Ameri can heiress were made through Mrs. nocent, and this alone is ., likely to were put through with scarcely a strike terror to the heart of any pris- j hitch, and finally a mariage was ar oner, 00 matter what his hardihood. , ranged. Lord A was highly pleased Lord Chief Baron, who heard the ev-:and his American fiancee overjoyed. far more impressed with the degree of the Member of Parliament's off ence than he was by bis defence. In passing the sentence. Lord Chief Bar on said the language employed by the defendant namely that he would j "make a ring of fire" around one of the boycotted men,was "calculated to have a dangerous influence on the minds of those to whom it was ad dressed Mr. Farrell, in submitting himself for imprisonment, expressed If yon will take Foley' Orino Lax ative until the bowels become regular you will not have to take purgatives constantly, as Foley's Orino, Laxative positively cures chronic constipation and sluggish liver.

LITTLE ROCK.ARK., Jan.lS.-W. Amis, of Hot Springs, one of the leaders of the reform element there was in Little Rock yesterday en route home from Washington, where he appeared before the Department of the Interior in an effort to induce the government to turn off the supply of ot water at the springs if the "lid" not put on there. He stated that he believed the government "Would throw out a few hints and then if the "lid" is not put cn, the hot water sup ply would be cut off. The 'Astoria Motor Boat Club" is an accomplished and interesting fact. The adjourned meeting of the gen tlemen given to this splendid sport, which wai held last evening in the Chamber of Commerce rooms, closed all preliminaries, last night, and the members are rejoicing in the success of the venture which shall add dis tinct credit to the city and eventually, ! to the records of water sport in the Xothwest i Dr. Frank Vaughan presided and there were about a score of interested people there, all of whom either own their own boats or are intending pur chasers, o, at least, have very definite concern in the establishment of the club. The committee charged with the compiling of a constitution and by laws, reported fully and .promptly and the work was accepted unanimously and finally; but the matter of the se lection of club-berth for its boats was carried over to a future session for determination. The name was selected and adopted without discussion, and in all the work of the evening there seemed to be a ready and cordial concurrence in all propositions that tended to the immediate organization of the club. The election of the officers of the dug was another matter that was was passed to the ensuing session. When adjournment was taken last evening the fact of the real existance of the Astoria Motor Boat Club was not amenable to the slightest possible doubt, and the events of the very live- meeting made this assurance doub ly sure. Keep your eye on this new and interesting feature of "life in the open at Astoria, and you will see some engaging facts unfolded in the next few weeks. The organization is certain to meet with definite popular support and the 1909 Regatta will be conspicuous for the advantage this . SOLD "RARE OLD LACE j NEW YORK, Jan. lS.-"Rare old lace, as retailed by a mysterious wo man from Paris representing her'cli as a cotintcsi, cost a New York wo man more than $10,000, "The count ess," who arrived at the St. Regis Hotel in this city, a month ago, arm ed with a letter of introduction from J'aris, accompanied by a maid, a toy dog and followed by nine trunks, is p.bsing. ' She announced before her departure that a friend had invited her to visit, her home and that she would tempo rarily give up her apartments in the hotel. It is said that she by this time is cither in France or on her way there. The "rare old lace," which the worn an said had been handed down to her from the courts of Louis XIV and Louis XV is (icclared by lace experts here to be practically valueless. This is the verdict of one importer who examined some of the samples, I can hardly see how you were so easi ly duped. This lace is a cheap imita tion and was made in this country, i Not a piece you have with you was made outside of New York and it is all machine made at that.".
