Bord Chelmsford on His Way to Inspect
the Canadian Frontier Defenses.
[Little Danger, He Thinks, That

, 2, Russia Will Invade India.

New York, Aug. 24.—-Lord Chelmsford.
the British general who gained fame
fighting the Zulus, the Kafl‘lrs and the
Abyssinians, is at the Grand Hotel, and
will remain a month in America. He is
more than seventy years old, and has
been long since retired from the army.

This is his first visit to this country,:

and it will be one of more than or-
dinary interest to the Canadian officials,
because he intends to inspect the line
of defense between the United States
and Canada. It is, however, an un-
oflicial inspection, and is for the pur-
pose of gratifying his soldierly curiosity.
For one of his years, Lord Chelmsford
is active and walks with the buoyancy
of youth.

“Do you expect a war between this
country and Canada?” he was asked.

"Oh, no,” he replied, smiling. “I have
a curiosity to inspect Canada’s line of
defense along the great lakes, and for
that purpose I will make the trip through
the lakes to Duluth. There is no reason
why the United States should go to war
with Canada, even if it does pull the
British lion's tail frequently. I think
this republic has territory enough and
does not wish any more. Of course, we
know that politics has much to do with
pulling the British lion’s tail, and re-
ceive the pull accordingly. But the
trouble is that it may go too far some
time and arouse the British people.

Serious Result Possible.

“The politicians follow the people, and
the end might be serious. But Lord
Salisbury would not be deceived and
would do nothing precipitate. He has a
level head and is not carried away by
clamor. The intemperate letter written
by Secretary Sherman is calculated to
amuse the English people. I do not an-
ticipate any trouble, howeVer, between
the two countries. The Anglo-Saxon
casein America, I was informed coming
over mm the steamship, took no part in
the clamor against England on several
past occasions.”

“WWI! you inspect the army in this

country?"
Ail do not know where to find the
army.“ He laughed and added that the
United States did not need an army,
and it should be thankful for it. In re-
gard to the situation in India and the
frontier trouble, he declared that Great
Britain had made a mistake in pushing
the army outposts to the extreme fron-
tier.

‘Mre is no danger of Russia invad-
ing India,” he added, “and yet that bug-
hear is used to send soldiers to those
bleak and lonely frontiers. We have
too few soldiers there if we intend to
memain, ‘and if We pushed on through
AWIStan and met with disaster, the
Afghans would in turn attack us. If
Russia should come that way, we could
meet her without going so far. In these
lonely frontier posts we are too far
from our base of supplies, and besides
- the native troops do not like the duty
there. When war comes the English
officers stand the brunt.”

The Treacherous Ameer.

“Is not Afghanistan threatening to
rise?”

“The ameer is not a friend .of Eng-
land and cannot be trusted. But I do
not believe there will be a holy war de-
clared by the Mohammedans. The Eng-
lish will move up re-enforcements and
defeat the tribes attacking Chitral and
other frontier points.”

He praised the Turkish soldiers and
spoke of their good fighting qualities
when he was with them in the Crimean
war.

“All this sympathy for the Armenians
is wasted,” he remarked. “They are
called Christians, but they are only so
nominally. Lord Salisbury has wisely
paid no attention to the clamor raised
in England in behalf of these people.
If the truth were known it would be
found that the Armenian revolutionary
societies in New York, London and
Paris started or instigated the trouble,
and they are responsible for the massa—
cres. On the other hand, the Turks are
sobem steady and most tractable. If
they had good rulers or a good govern-
ment they would succeed and no doubt
rise. As it is they have accomplished
wonders.”

Lord Chelmsford left today for Al-
bany and Niagara Falls. He does not
expect to visit Washington. but will re-
turn home from Canada.

Now is the Time, and Nor-z

walk People Who HaVe
Found it Out,are Glad
to Say So.

Yoii have the evidence on every
hand, from every ward, from every
street of both the N orwalks, that Cali-
fornia Catarrh Cure cures catarrh
easily and quickly; and if it did this in
the Winter and spring, much more
easily will it do it in the summer. now.

Do not delay. Get California Ca-
tarrh Cure to-day, cure all traces of
your catarrh, be rid once and for all of
the constant hawking and snufiing, and
for once be ready, when winter comes,
to meet it with clean, strong, healthy
nasal passages and throat, that shall
not succumb in a detestable cold in the
head, to the first cold wave. Note
this cure:

Mrs. (J. W'arren, who lives at- 7 Ann
street, South Norwalk, says: “My lit-
tle grandson, who lives with me, has
been troubled quite badly with catarrh,
and I got him a bottle of California
Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store,
and had him use it. It helped him
very much, and seems to keep his head
much clearer than it was before. As
so many troubles arise from catarrh,
especially when one so young has it. I
feel that in Catarrh Cure I have found
a good thing.”

Hay fever is immediately relieved
and even entirely prevented by Cali-
fornia Catarrh Cure. All druggists

DEAOON’S INSANITY.

Physicians Report No Change—Lost Chap-
ter of a Sensational Story.

Boston, Aug. 24.-——The physicians say
that there is no change today in the
condition of Edward Parker Deacon,
who was brought into public notice by
his killing of M. Abeille in his wife's
apartments in Cannes, and who yester~
day afternoon was committed to Mc-
Lean hospital, in Waverly, violently in-
sane.

Mr. Deacon came to this city from
Narragansett pier on Thursday, accom—
panied by his nurse and valet, E. L.
Peck. They registered at the Hotel
Bellevue, where Mr. Deacon is in the
habit of stopping. Mr. Deacon was
acting very strangely, but as he’is ec-
centric his demeanor was attributed to
this.

Early Friday morning he grew vio-
lent, and W. P. Blake, who has charge
of Mr. Deacon’s property in this city,

 

 

MR. AND MRS. E. P. DEACON.

was called in. He at once summoned
physicians, and they declared that Mr.
Deacon was insane, and unless he was
taken to a sanitarium at once he would
permanently lose his reason.

Before this could be done he had se-
cured a revolver and driven his nurses
and attendants from the rooms. He
was finally removed to the Massachu-
setts General hoSpital, but declared
that the nurses were spies hired to take
his life. Then he was sent to Mverly,
where he has improved slightly.

Aside from his mental trouble Mr.
Deacon looks physically ill. The com-
mandingand dignified air that once dis-
tinguished him has gone and he looks
Mr. Deacon is a
grandson of Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis,
and was well known in New York so-
ciety when he married the daughter of
the late Rear Admiral Baldwin. They
lived much in Washington, and there
first et M. Abeille, an attache of the
Frenc legation.

In 1892, while in Europe, Mr. Deacon
found Abeille in Mrs. Deacon’s room
and shot and killed him. Mr. Deacon
was sentenced to one year’s imprison—
ment, but was pardoned by President
Carnot. A year later he secured a di-
vorce from his wife. ,

Since then he has been living quietly,
but s owing great eccentricity. His ex-
puls ‘n from a fashionable Newport
club for taking ice frOm the drinking
water pitcher to put on his head is
fresh in the public mind.
