A Little Riot in ireland.

l1aAc- h''Isti ia AAe ". !. AAio"iiS.I
On the morning of my arrival in
We,trort, as | walked about the town
| heard the people talking about the
little riot the night before. About 10
o'clock saw crowd of women-a
"shower of women" az street stock
ing-seller expressed it-mostly bare
footed, all poorly clad-wlth blue lips
and hungry Electromagnetic near
were talking excitedIy. A defaob icy
of constabulary stood ut the corner OPP
posite. l went among the idlers and
asked the meaning of the crowd, and
learned that broker had been buying
up potatoes in the country round about
from the farmers. and had tried to send
them off by rail on the night before
but that the women rushed ON his cart,
and cut open the bags with knives"
Did they take them?" / asked.
"NO, sor," said the man spoke to.
We've not got down so far as that,
yet; we don want to stale; all that the
women wanted was to stop the potatoes
from going out of the counthry."
But didn't the man buy the pota-

"Oh. yes, sir; but dye see, we need
them here badly enough, ana if the
Dublin folks hear that we're sending pO-
tatoes out of our country, they'd stop
sending US relate. Look therew
He pointed out man who was mend
ing potato bag in a cart full of them.
About /" stone" of potatoes lay scat
tered on the streets.
"When he found he couldn't take them
out Of town." said the horse vender,
" he sent for the cOnstabulary, and
they re here to protect him. But as he
was driving his cart out, while since,
a boy rushed out and ripped open one
of the bags
There the potatoes lay in sight of a
hungry crowd, but not man or woman
went up to gather them. As the cart
moved On, under military escort, a
beggar woman" ran up and began to
pick up the potatoes. Then there was a
rush and the potatoes disappeared.

Why any man, sane or insane, with

want to be an editor is more than we can

US as plumb as sumac grub does sore

an average American statesman. As
for us, give US liberty, or give us a re-

asylum; be a stock-gambler, railroad di.

Healthy Property OF Onions.

The healthy property of onions have
never been fully understood. Lung and
liver complaints are certainly benefited,
often cured, by free consumption of
onions, either cooked or raw. Colds
yield to them like magic. Don't be
afraid of them. Taken at night, all Of
fense will be gone by morning, and the
good effects will amply compensate for
the trifling annoyance. Taken regu-
larly, they promote the health of the
lungs and:the digestive organs. An
extract made by boiling down the juice
of onions to a syrup, and taken a.
medicine, answers the purpose very
well, but fried, roasted or boiled orions
are better. Onions are a very cheap
medicine, within everybody's reach, and
they are not by any means as "bsd tO
take" as the costly nostrums a neglect
of their use may necessitate.

at the foot of flight of marble steps.

Her face, gentle and downcast, did
not tell him enough to bid him hope,
but he could not forbear doing that in

up at the wide portals, brOnzed lions

he had bowed and left her, that Annie

Annie Lorraine to learn her answer.
He was little surprised to find Dud-

With a cry of rage, ard a furious

Deceived by Appearances.

A Hartford jeweler, says the Courdnt
of that city, recently directed the at
tention of friend to rough appear
ing old farmer saunterjng down Main
street, and remarked, give been worse
sold on that man than on any other in
my whole business life" The man,
fully three score years and ten, wore
shabby pantaloons, rough cow hide
boots innocent of the slightest trace of
backing, a vest soiled in front and with
the back partly in tatters; was in his
shirt sleeves, without collar and his head
covered by tile fashionable many years
ago . That was about his style"
continued the merchant, s.when he
dropped in at my store one day during
the war, and said he wanted to buy a
watch. Judging from his appearance
that he meant sometime in the future,
after the scarecrow season was over
and he had drawn his money, didn't
hustle around very lively to make a
trade. | thought ten dollar silver
watch would about close out his pile and
showed one across the counter to him.
He merely glanced at it and quietly
asked, Don't you keep anything bet
ter?' This nettled me, and for bluff
| heuled out an American watch, one
Of the costliest we had in the store,
worth S175 in gold, and gold was worth
somewhere about 200 then. He exam
ined it carefully, asked its price, and
then to my amazement said That IL do. ;
He dived down into his pantaloons
pocket and after fishing out of the way
roll of greenbacks as big as your hat he
hauled up purse of gold, counted out
the S175, showed the watch into his vest
pocket and walked out. You may i'm
agine that this excited my curiosity and
after while l ascertained who my
strange customer was. He lived few
miles down the river and was worth
enough to have bought out the whole
establishment. Since then l haven't

The Same Old Game.

The other afternoon the tools, imple-
ments, fixtures, appurtenances and what
ever else belongs to the game of GRO
quet, were put in position on lawn up
Woodward Avenue, and as young
lady and young man who seemed to
be her lover, took up the mallets to
start the balls, a bony-looking old tramp
halted and leaned on the fence and got
his mouth puckcred up for something
good. The young man took the first
shot, and, before the ball ceased rolling,
the girls voice was heard calling:
"You didn't knock fair-you've got
to try it over!!''
Before either of them were half way
down she had occasion to remind him
that he wasn't playing with blind per-
son, and that she could overlook no
cheating. AS she went under the last
arch he felt compelled to remark that
her playing would rule her out of any
club he ever heard of. On the way
back she asked him why he couldn't be
an honest man as well as a jockey and
a falsitier, and he inquired why she
didn't write set of rules to tally with
her style Of playing.

Theories Of Light and Color.

A good deal regarding light was
known to the ancients. They knew the
law of reflection and something of that
of refraction. as shown by the reference
of Seneca to the broken appearance OF
an oar when thrust into the water.
Another phenomenon. that of the rain
bow standing out in the sky as sort OF
challenge to the human eye, could not
escape detection. At one particular
angle, as shown by Descartes, beams
reflected by or emerging from a drop
of rain were so welded together as to
form condensed sheath of rays, and it
was in this condensed sheath that you
saw the colors of the rainbow. Milton,
in 1872, proved by the use of the prism,
acted on by a beam of light thrown
through an aperture in a window shut
ter into dark room, that white light is
not homogeneal, but is composed OF vari-
Gus constituents more or less refrangi-
BILE, of which red is the least and violet
the most refrangible. This promised,
Professor Tyndall, by series OF beauti-
full and interesting experiments from
apparatus managed by his assistant,
threw upon white screen disks OF sew
eral colors in order to prove the true
effect of intermixture. Thus the ordl-
narily received theory that combination
of yellow and blue produces green was
shown to be erroneous, the true effect
Of the combination of those two colors
being, as proved to ocular demonstra-
tions, white. By the same means the
true complementary colors were dis
played. Fixing the eye on white disk
until the lecturer counted twenty and the
special illumination of the disk was
withdrawn, the spectator saw remain
ing the filmy scmblance of the compile
mentary color, black. Blue left orange,
