England's irrand old man, the Rt. Hon. William Ewart Gladstone, entered his eighty fourth year today. ' He celebrated his anniversary today by working hard In his study during the "morning. In the afternoon .he5 went to t,he house of commons, and in every3 way vigorous ly attended to the duties of his posi tion. Mr. Gladstone received many telegrams of congratulation from dis tinguished people in all parU of the world. j , Mr. Gladstone was born December 59, 1S09, at Liverpool, where his father, Sir John Gladstone, was; a merchant of considerable importance. From him, Gladstone inherited a fortune snd, what is more important, the baggage of tory opinions he had when he entered policical life. Mr. Gladstone was educated at Eton college and Christ church, Oxford. In 1831. he achieved one of the greatest academical feats known by taking a double first in letters and mathematics, there still lingers in Oxfard' the le gend of his phenomenal industry. His first intention was to study for the bar, but through the influence of the duke of Newcastle, determined to enter political life. He entered parli ament in 1832, as member for Kew-srk-on-Trent. He was then a con servative, and his first book was a defense of the union of church aoid state. When he was! twenty-five years old. Sir Robert Peel made him a junior lord of the treasury. A few months later he was appointed secre tary of the colonies, a position he held until Peel went out of Office in 1835. During the next eighteen years he held a number of offices and gradually swung round the circle from staunch tory ism to the liberalism he has held ever since 1831. In 1853 he was chan cellor of the exchequer In the Aber deen coalition "ministry; and held' a place in the Palmers ton cabinet, which succeeded it. He was sent to the Ionian isles, as lord high commission er. In 1865 the University of Oxford rejected hha. and a year ater the de feat of the reform bill threw him and his colleagues into the : background. He was in his fif ty-ninh year when he was first made prime minirter of England. After the triumph of the conservatives in 1874, he retired and for a number of years devoted himself to literary work. The victory of the liberals in 1SS0 called him again to power. In 1834, through his efforts, the franchise bill was passed, which gave 2,000,000 people the right to vote. The last years of his life have been given to the battle' for home rule for Ireland. These are the most prominent facts In a life of brilliant achievments. His home life has been singularly happy. Mrs.' Gladstone belonged to an aristocratic Welsh family. Her father was? Sir Stephen Flynn, of Bar warden, Cheshire. She -was well educated, and by nature as well as by attainments, was well suited for the companion and closest friend of the man who was tp become one of the greatest of English statesmen.

The first fatal raid of the dispensary constables occurred last night.

The men went over . to Palmer's house to arrest him "for keeping a blind tiger. Constables Jackson, Blayton and Pearson knocked at the door and told Paltoer to open. Palmer came to the door, and Blayton laid hands on the negro and told him to consider himself under arrest. Palmer jerked back and acted as though he was go ing to pull a pistol. Just then a wo man came in with a gun and Palmer told her to shoot. She cocked both barrels and leveled, the gun at Jack son. He grabbed the gun before she had time to pull the trigger. Blayton and the negro were scuffling near the floor, when Blayton told one of his eomrades to shoot. A shot was fired. The load entered Blay ton's back. Blayton then drew bis pistol, placing the muzzle just back of Palmer's left ear, and fired. The negro fell dead without a struggle. It is evident that Blayton was shot by one of his own party. The house was full of men, who ran away when the first shot was fired. ., Great excitement prevailed in the city all day. The colored people are organizing a mob to kill the consta bles, and it is feared that the Hamp ton Guards wlU have to be called out. YELLOW" FEV ER AT RIO. Th Plagn Appears In th War-Stricken City.
