READ this: The startling exposure of
Speaker Biaine's yenality in connection with
the Union Pacific Road, Eastern Division,
entirely destroys, of course, whatever credit
some people may have given to his evasive
denial of the Cakes Ames bribery, and puts
the whole case of the Credit Mobilier upon a
different basis. Now it is shown
hat Speaker Blaine never deserved his good
reputation. He had taken brides in another
case" Perhaps our good Republican friends
will think that some wicked Democrat is the
author of the foregoing. The New York
Tribune said it September 30, 1882. The
Tribune is for Blaine in 1884.

Three Meals a Day Necessary.

An English writer gives some much
needed advice as to the times and fire.
quencv of meals. In his opinion the
present usual practice of three meals q
day has good reason, as well as custom.
in its favor. When work of any kind
is being done, whether mental or
bodily, the intervals between taking
food should not be so long as to entail
demands on the system when its store
for the generation of force is exhausted.
An ordinary full meal, in the case of
healthy man, is generally consider ed
to have been completely digested and
to have passed cut of the stomach in
four hours. A period of rest should
then be granted to the stomach. AS
Stunning that two hours are allowed for
this, the interval between one meal and
another would be six hours; and this
accords with the experience of most
men. During rest and sleep there is less
waste going on, and especially during
sleep there IS a greatly diminished activ-
ity of all the functions of the
body. The interval therefore, between
the last meal of one day and the first of
the next may be longer, as it generally
is, than betwe n the several day meals.
Assuming that breakfast be taken
about s or o'clock, there should be
midday meal about or 9. The char
acter of this must depend on the nature
of the days occupation and the con-
venience of the individual. With wom-
en- and children this is generally their
hungry time, and the midday repast,
whether called luncheon or dinner, u.s.
the chief meal. So it is with the mid
die and laboring classes, for the most
part. But for merchants, professional
men and others, whose occupations take
them from home all the day, this is in
convenient, and moreover, it is not
found conductive to health or comfort
to take full meal in the midst of the
days work. There can, however. be
no doubt that much evil arises from at
tempting to go through the day with
out food, and then with exhausted pow
ers sitting down to hearty meal.
Something of light, easily digestible,
but sustaining character, should be TAX
en- toward or o'clock. Boston Tran.

PATHS Welsh Home,

Nine. PATHS castle, Craig-a-Nos, is
perched high up on cleft mountain,
picturesquely wooded. It is nearly at
the top of this mountain. and built after
the common fashion of all Welsh castles,
with low bastions and what is called a
curtain between-that is, a straight
line of wall joining two semi circular
towers. The walls, which are of grey
ish green slate, so plentiful here, are
topped with battlements and covered
here and there with ivy, while the VIM
dows are either arched or gabled.
Spreading away in front of the gardens
and lawns, all terraced because of the
PERCEPTIONS character of the ground,
and so coming gradually down to the
little valley which lies below. Through
this valley runs lovely river with an
unpronounceable name, spanned by
numerous pretty bridges and well
stocked with fish. The valley opens
into the great Swansea Valley, while
the whole country round is extremely
mountainous and abounds with game.
The castle contains twenty-five rooms,
uoAO Vi oAou1 'Siy large, Dut Ill WaIm
and cozy, as they should be in such
climate. PATHS own is hung with blue
silk, all the upholstery being to match,
while attached to it is little dressing
room that is complete enough it its ap-
pointments for princess. The draw
ing room is charming, and he must be
dull person who could not find some
thing to interest him there. It contains
two grand pianos, albums, statnettes,
pictures, and offerings from admirers,
chief among the latter being an exquis-
lite inlaid cabinet, containing gold and
silver coronets, with which almost every
nation in the world has crowned the
diva Queen of Song" The morning
room is also little beauty, but chiefly
attractive because it contains picture
of the poor late Duke of Albany, with
his autograph and manly, modest let
ter begging Patti to accept his picture
in return for one she had sent him. In

trion, which is the chief source of

A Catholic Answer to Jim Blaine's Ap.
peal.
From the Catholic Citizen, Oct. II.

From the Catholic Citizen, Oct II.
BLAINE s APPEAL TO THE BISHOPS AND PRIESTS. y
4 circular has been issued from the Repub-
hcan headquarters TO all the Bishops and
Priests OF the United States, asking their care
Jul consideration of certain allegations against
Cleveland in connection with the Liberty of
Worship bill. This being Blaines first call
upon the Priests since he gave up the profess
sion and practice of religion, we are disposed
to give him hearing. We do not like to repel
his tardy advances, as we want him to come
again and often.
Mr.. Blaine saws, Grover Cleveland was re-
sponslbIe for the defeat of the measure that
would have secured liberty of worship to all
Catholic inmates of pl isons in the state of New
York. If BIalnes charge be true, it was gre
vious fault. Does the gentleman wish us to in
fer that such conduct not only make him guilty
absolutely but guilty in comparison with him
self. Would Mr. Blaine have acted differently.
Does he take it for granted that the Catholic
clergy of this country are ignorant of the Multi
gan letters and their authors? Then he ap-
pealed to the Protestants. Now he appeals to
Catholics against the Professionals to win the
Cath olcs.
Does Mr.. Blaine suppose that the priests
and bishops of the United States prefer po-
htical hvpocrte and trimmer to an honest en-
envy? Mr.. Cleveland and all those who were
best capable of forming correct Judgment,
say that the liberty OF worship bill failed to
tionallv delayed reporting it until too late to
pass it, Even Mr.. Cieveland's most pronounced
enemy accuses HIM only OF a disposition to
veto the bill had it been presented for his sig
nature The charge against the democratic
governor of New York is the allegation of
mind reader, and an amateur mind reader at
that
We are more disposed to take the word of
a man who has never yet been caught in
lie, than that OF 8 man whose whole Ii e, public
and private, has been falsehood. We will go
farther and say, if Mr.. Blaine can show one &C
OF his public lie that was straightforward and
manly or unseitish, we shall give him the ben
eft OF doubt and say he would have done bet
ter in CleveIand's place. In his circular to
the Catholic clergy he poses as saint; in his
answer to the indianapolis Sentinel he posed as
baby or BOBBY; in his speeches IN congress
in answer to the Mullgan letters he posed as a
victim: in his late tour he posed as typical
American that is not baby, BOBBY, saint or
victim. Blaine is a many-sided rogue, a ka-
liedoscope OF hypocrisy, the chameleon of
tricks, and the glutton OF politics

Mr.. Blaine has been occasionally passing as
the Tail Twister-in- Chief for the British lion,
and especially as the champion of the Irish.
Daniel McSweeny, who has recently arrived
in New York, brings with him some testimony
pertinent to these pretensions Mr.. McSweeny
says:
81 come over here voluntarily, to tell my
countrymen how Blaine treated ME when 1
was locked up in an Irish jail. l am now 50
years Of age, and came to this country first in
1852. lremained In Pennsylvania three years,
where got out my first naturalization papers,
and then l went to California, where | got my
final papers on Nov. Is, 1860. 1t was in the
cattle trade, and attended so strictly to business
that my health gave way, and physicians or
dered me to take a sea voyage for my health.
In March, 1877, went to Ireland with my fam
lily and bought small freehold property called
Carrowcannon House, in county Donegal l
was there four years. and tried to sell the prop
erty, but Buckshot Forster's Coercion act had
so deprecated property that could not dis
pose of it.
Early in the morning of June ., 1881, con-
stables broke into my house and arrested me.
| was SO feeble At the time that had to use a
crutch. was drag ged 200 miles and thrown in
to Dundalk jail Tie charge against me was in
citing the people of the neighborhood to riot and
assault [ saw the American consul at Dundalk
and demanded my release or a speedy trial on
the ground that | was an American citizen.
He wrote TO Minister Lowell who, in turn,
wrote to Secretary Blaine. With the sanction
of Secretary Blaine Minister Lowell wrote me,
after had been four months IN jail, that Earl
Granville refused to tell what the charges
against me were, and that he himself could not
Interfere because | was only a uaturalzed cit
iZen anyway and not an American born. 1t

thought that the rights of American citizens
were equal, no matter WHATEVER previous con-
tlltion or nationality might be.

| would have been released III three months
time at least, as the other subjects were.
During all that time | listened 10 the CALLING
taunt from my lailers: What good is your
American citizenship? Let your flag protect
You if it can Insult after insult was heaped
upon me, all because it WAS James G. Blaines
policy to turn his back on the appeals of
Irish Americans. The Irish Americans should
know this and act accordingly. When Mr.
Frelinghuysen went into office he took hold of
my case at once, and the prison doors were

Because then our hired girl could
