the ~. Y. Her aid points out the
difference in Blaine's action in the
cases of two men each claiming tn be an
American citizen; and it very properly
asks Irish-Amaricans to compare his
action in McSweeney's case with that
i'm the case of Landreau. The Herald
says:
McSweeney was a naturalized citizen. He
had lived in this country and had business
here. He went on avisit to Ireland and was
put in prison for no other reason than that
he came from this country. He had commit.
ted no crime. 1t was not charged that he
had. He was imprisoned in defiance of all
right, and Blaine, appealed to, gave not the
slightest heed.
Landreau claimed to be a citizen. The
evidence is that he was not citizen. He
made the claim only to get the United States
authorities to help his speculation in Peru
Blaine rushed to his rescue, and declared in
his-official dispatches that no treaty Of peace
made between the South American belliger.
ents would be recognized by the United
States unless it provided for the settlement
of Landreau's claim.

In a GYPSY Camp.

OF the Younger fry there were as
many Us half q dozen, four of them
girls, whose ages may have ranged
from II to IA, and they were worse
clad even than the two women, nor
were the growing boys, better covered.
AS for the little children, whose skins,
poor little wrctches, for lack of wash

any, several of them We're naked AS
they were born, and there in the midst
of an atmosphere pungent with the
odor of onions and misty with the steam
Of the stew, they were all huddleu hig-
gledy piggledy on the ground, some re-
clining at full length, others squatted
nose and knecs'' together, discussing
their supper with an appetite only to

garden.
The tent contained no single article
Of furniture in the ordinary sense of the
term. An empty barrel, that appar-
emily had once contained -four, stood
in the center with a board across the
top of it, and on this stood shallow
brown pan, which contained what had
been cooked in the large kettle, and be-
side it were several loaves Of bread.
Two Of the women presided. The
three men squatted cross-legged, with
large zinc wash~bowl filled with the
savory mess on the ground in their
midst. and a four-pound loaf, from
which, with their clasp-knives, they
hacked "chunk' as they required it..
Plates and spoons there were none.
They thrust their wedges Of bread into
the bowl, and SO extracted the broth,
and they helped themselves to meat
with their dirty fingers. tearing it
asunder with their teeth when the
pieces were too large to- put at once in
the mouth In gallon stone bottle
they had beer, which for convenience
OF drinking was tilted into yellow pint
basin.
Even less ceremony was observed by
the children in eating. The female in

there is no necessity to keep awake
nights to fret about it. Now, being
skeptical, I do not believe the story,
for if it gets far down it will run into
the Symeses Hole and come out at the
North Pole. But does not this contra
dict the savan who says that the sun
will gradually fail US, and in a few
million years we shall all be frozen
solid. But the best account is that ice
will accumulate round the South Pole
and thaw round the North pole, and
by-and-by the South pole will get so
heavy that it will tip over and there
will be a mighty aood-swash. But as
