STATE OF IRELAND-FAMINE IN MAYO.
Rev. Mr.. Callahan, incumbent of Louisburgh,
in the Country of Mayo, in letter to the editor
of the Evening Packet, states that hundreds of
individuals are dying of starvation around him.
He gives the PARTICULARS of several most heart
rending restitution among Protestants of his par.
ish, and says:
"Tho famine years Of 1916, 1917 and 1913
were halcyon years when contrasted with the
dismal year Of 1919 The s1ndbanks about me
are studded with the bodies of the dead Often
have | given some aid to the poor to buy collins;
with the small sums they received from me they
bought some food and then buried their dead
in the sandbanks. The very graves in my church.
yard have, in my presence, been asSaled by the
starving dogs. From morning till night | am
now hourly beset by crawling skeletons begging
for food! The poor persons set down as entitled
to outdoor relief are not at this moment recelv-
ing half the quantity ruled for them The poor
in my parish ought to have received their trlhc
of relief for this week last Thursday. No mcal
has yet arrived from Westport, nor is any dis.
tribution expected here before Sunday next
The recipients of out door relief are starving
three days in the week! Such, my dear friend,
are the sufferngs of our poor-hear now my
own case. For the last year and a half have
received only G20 from the parish, and have
had to pay more than E22 in poor rates and ces
ses within this period"

.4cfM Catastrophe IN Glasgow THeater.
The Dunlop-street Thoator, Glasgow, has
been the scene of most disasterous catastrophe
1t is as follows
Shortly after the performance on Saturday,
Feb, II, had commenced, an alarm was given
that fire had broken out in the gallery and the
numerous auditory there became much excited.
The fire brigade were soon at the theatre, and
commenced operations, which increased the
fears OF the people, and rush was mlde to the
door, in order to escape. Despite all rrmon-
STRANGE the people would be out, and the result
was the death of % individuals, beside four
more or less injured. An idea of the scene at
this moment would fail TO reach reality. The
authorities were soon at the spot, and while as
sisance was being procured, the gallery stair
was assembled when at one OF the landing places
was discovered most hornfying spectacle

ertions to restore the poor creatures were sue
cesslul only in few cases. Six y-one were
dead, and three sent to the Royal Inlirmary
two died upon the way. and one shortly after
Eleven persons, slightly bruised, were removed
to their homes and Others are still in the Infrm-
airy in dangerous state. The dead bodies were
removed to The Clyde-street Hospital, and there
kept till Sunday morning for identification. On
the next morning the relatives of the sufferers
by order of the authorities. were admitted t.
identify them. And when each relative, father
mother, vile, or other-triends were recognized
their shriek5 rent the air. One woman claimed
three as her own. The sufferers chiefly belong
to the laboring classes, and are for the most par
lads between IA AMI II years old the only fe,
mlle was one girl three years of age. One poor
lad in Dunlop-street was the picture of VICE.
He had taken his sweetheart to the theatre. She
was carried away from him in the rush; and ia
his attempt to save her he had only been able tc
grasp her bonnet aud shall. With these still ii
his possession, he often exclaimed to the by
standers-" How can | 60 home 10 her parents
without her, and Tell them of this ~
The cause of the fire is not decidedly known
but from the Managers statement we learn The
following: The theater was lighted at the usua
time by the servants Of the house, without thu
slightest indication Of anything being wrong
until the end Of the first act of the play, whel
it was observed that man in the second gallery
had lighted paper for the purpose of smoking
his pipe--notwithstanding the stringent prohlbi
