Dynamite is the all absorbing topic
among the Irish population Just now; all
available halls are hired and orations on
the death-dealing subjects are actively
brought out In some of the meet

so thoroughly sifted that nothing new can
be said, The time is uselully spent In writ
ing epitaphs for the soon TO be slaughtered
potentates. Unfortunately for this city

the governing part of IL aud Pat goes about
with law IN one hand, the shillelah in the
other, like the roaring lion, seeking whom

test of endurance aud the obstacles are
great, rs storms and very rough water are
of common occurrence. The river for
about eighty miles is sweet water, and for
the rest of the journey is salt. II he fin

umph OF American pluck and endurance
over English tank swimming.
