Judge Poland, representative in con
 gress from Vermont, Is sad to bear a re
 semblance to portraits of George Wash
 lngton, and the likeness is increased by his antiquated style of dress. One day
 according to Troy Times correspondent
 he was in the east room of the white house with some friends from Vermont. The room was made dim by heavy curtains. A comfortable looking Quaker, with his wife and two children, entered the further cad in their sightseeing rounds. In corner near the judge stood fulllength picture frame leaning against the wall. ssGet be. hind that frame, /" said one of his party, t'and we'll tell these people that its pie ture of Washington" The judge stepped brisk,y into place. Slowly the Quaker and his brood came down the great room, he pointing out the pictures on the wall. "What's that ?" he demanded. pointing toward the judge. ."Thst's Washington, j he was answered. ssDo not go near. The painting is just finished, and must not be touched" The judge stood impressive in the Shadow, gazing pensively out on the group halted 8 dozen feet away. At length the honest visitor found voice. Turning sorrowfully to his wife, he said s'Wife, we always thought well of George Wash ington, but that is all over. We are tenn perance people; just look at that nose p and he pointed toward the most marked feature of Poland's face, gathered up his family and sorrowfully marched away. The Vermonters restrained themselves for Q moment, then gave way, and only real ized what they were doing by the judges grpHE words, "What are yoa fools laughing at 2? kk&xsfs* AE fAk

In a double-leaded editorial in the Citi- zen, Congressman John F. Finerty of Chi cags, speaks harshly on the ODonheH hanging. He declares that President Arth- UT has thrown away the chance of his life that th,s government made gross and fa- ta; mistak. iii not sustaiuing bold poli- cy aHd that the r~sult was one that none but the government of tn s country would weakly accept. He calls for the resigna- tions of the secretary of state and Minister Lowell. In Conclusion, replying to the question, "What remains for the Irish race to do?' he says: Argument is of no us,.. Agitation IS powerless and diplo- macy is g myth. Let all Hishmen com bil4e again, vii, ther openly or secretly, fir revolutionary action iu this vendetta ~hich England i.as now distinctly chal- lenged. Sc.elce must match it's. If against strength.
