Fate of a Solicitor Who Interrupted Horace Greeley. Kansas City Journal. Chauncey M. Depew recently told the following good story concerning Horace Greeley: To interrupt Horace Greeley when he was in the throes of bringing forth an editorial an editorial which has never been equaled in the journalism of America an editorial which was a slogan for his party, a thunderbolt for his foes was a danger which no friend, no enemy, none but a fool, dared to encounter. I was once in his editorial sanctum when the tool was there. To relieve your appre hensions, I was not the fool. But he was one of those itinerant and persis tent gtn.lemen with a subscription book. He kept presenting it while old Horace was writing aa most of you remember, with hia pen away np to his chin, like this (illustrating), aud Horace had a habit when any one would interfere of kicking, and so he kicked at the subscription fiend. Finally, when he saw he could not get rid of the iutruder by this means, he stopped in the middle of a sentence. turned around, and said raspingly ia that shrill voice of his: "What do you want? State it quick, and state it in the fewest possible words." "Well," said the subscription fiend. "I want a suoscription, Mr. Greeley, to prevent thousands of my fellow human boings from going to hell." JSiiid Mr. Lirccley: "I won't give jou a cent. There don't half 1-LOUj.h go tl!C.lC llOH'." YESTERDAY'S NEWS. Plucky Portugal Defies the En glish Government. A MOTHER'S TERRI11LE DEED. She ghosts Her Three Little Children and Then Tikes Poison Hill's Code in the Washington Legislature.

A recriminatory debate followed, but all agreed in de nouncing the British ultimatum. Several colonial governors, includ ing the governor of Mozambique, have resigued. A MOTHER'S TERRIBLE DEED. She Shoots Her Three Little Cb.il ' dren and Takes Poison. St. Pcl, Jan. 16. A Faribault, Minn., special to the Pioneer-Press say 8: One of the mojt shocking tragedies that ever occurred in this county took place this morning at the residence of James McNeil, near Can non Lake. McNeil arose about 5 o'clock and went into the kitchen to build a fire. Mrs. McNeil slipped out after him and locked the door, then went back into the bedroom, took a revolver from the bureau drawer and shot three of her children. McNeil heard the shots and tried to g to the bedroom, but could not get in. He then sUrted around the house and went in the front door and met his wife coming from the kitchen, where she had chased tke oldest child and made her take carbolic acid and took some herself. The little girl evidently struggle 1 very hard with her mother, as her face and hands were covered with the acid. One child was killed nstantly and one died about 10 o'clock this morning. The little baby, three weeks old, was shot through both lungs, bat at last reports was still alive. The woman and the little girl to whom she gave the cid are also alive and may live. Mrs. McNeil gives as the reason for the terrible deed that she had been sick and had no hope of gettiug well, and wanted to end her sufferings ai mice. Mrs. McNeil is a daughter ui Edward Sol lister, of Hopkins station. Dr. Jack son, the attending physician, says un less iuflamation ot the stomach sets in, thswjman anl litt e girl will prob ably live. FROM OLVMl'IA. The Bill for Hill's Code i'assed the House by Two Votes. Olympia, Wash., Jan, 16. The house debated a long time to-day on the Hill code proposition. There was red hot opposition, charges being freely and indiscriminately made that there was a "niger in the woodpile," and his name was the Bancroft-Whitney com r any, of San Francisco. It is notorious that a lobbyist ot that concern has been here working for the proposition for weeks. The bill nevertheless passed by two votes. though the emergency clause tailed. The bill will probably pass the senate and become a law. In the senate a number of bills of no great importance passed. CUSTER'S WIDOW. Her Lively Interest in All the General Did. . New York Star.
