self government; this will be proved BY
the fact that some of our most famous
and successful civil and military leaders
were Irish. He mentioned Phil Sheri.
dan and Keamey, whose names were
greeted with loud applause. Judge
Orion was the first speaker on the pro-
gram. He made stirring appeal
for that land whose descendants are
now scattered in all parts of the earth,
and who are sending back to Ireland
money to aid their aged parents in pay
ing their infamous rent He showed a
piece of Shamrock, fresh and green
from the Emerald Isle; the twig was
greeted with applause. The Judge
said all that Ireland needs is such a
constitution as Wisconsin has, and she
would take care of herself. His address
was earnest and impressive. Judge
Cassoday next championed the cause Of
suffering Erin. He paid Gladstone a
fine tribute but condemned the English
artist cracy. He was followed by Hon.
Bur. w Jones, who began by saying
thai he believed if St. Patrick were on
earth again he would surely join the
land league and labor for the freedom
of Ireland. He reviewed the history of
Ireland and her sufferings and prom
ised her freedom in the near future.
The last speaker of the evening was
Bryan j. Castle, of Black River Falls,
who waded into the landlords with full
earnestness. He branded them as the
descendants of the chieftain robbers Of
the middle ages. He was glad that it
was becoming possible for men to rea-
son with each other; for that very day,
in the city of Pittsburg two professions
had marched side by side through the
street-one following the flag of or
ange-the other the green colors of
Ireland. The program was we'll In
terspersed with music All the speak
ers promised Ireland her freedom in the
near future, and promised it should
come without violence.

with sad fortune on Friday, March 10,

Mr. Harper and his family moved to
Madison from Hazel Green last Sep

One of the heroes of the Franco-Ger-
man war has just died-Gen. Bonnie
mains, who commanded the cuirassiers
in the famous cavalry charge at Reichs-
hofen. The feat of arms by which he
staid the advance of the Germans, while
his men fell in scores around him under
the murderous fire, until Marshal Mac
Mahon had got clear away from Woerth
and Froeschwiller, is commemorated on
many canvas and in song; and to this
day the appearance of cuirassier regi-
ment at a review in France is always
greeted with frantic plaudits. Gen.
Bonnemains was II years of age,

The Indian Oculist.

The intinerant eye-doctor of India
performs his operations with a confident
celebrity which the more civilized oculist
would call recklessness. As he enters a
town he bawls, ado you want back
your sight?-one rupee only" When a
customer appears he takes out bis pen
knife and performs the operation while
standing in the open square. Then he
binds up the wound, tells his patient to
keep in the dark for fortnight. and
pockets his rupee. 4 writer in Cham
bers journal, who describes the pro-
ceeding. says that it is almost always
successful; one of his own servants, a
woman of so, was in this way success
fully operated upon for cataract.

The Railroad Strike at Kansas City.

KANSAS CRY, March 22.-At 9 o. clock
this morning the general sounding Of
locomotive whistles signaled the inau-
guration of another strike. At the
hour named the union switchmen in
every railroad yard in the city quit
work and the freight business was gen.
orally stopped. The Chicago & Alton
officials made up train by the help of
non-union men, but the strikers are
said to have boarded the train at the
eastern city limits. The Wabash is
working small force sufficient, Off
cials say, to handle the city freight and
being under the protection of the Fed
eral court have invoked the protection
of the United States marshal. A mass
meeting of the strikers will be held at
noon to-day. At present the cause of
the strike cannot be learned. Some of
the men say: "We had orders from the
headquarters of the Knights of Labor
The switchmen made general demand
for an advance in wages week ago on
the various roads and it was granted.
There are flying rumors to the effect
that several other departments are to
be ordered out.
THE swITCHMEN's CIRCULAR.
KANSAS CRY, March 22.-The situa-
ton in railroad circles has become so
complicated that the outcome grows
more and more uncertain. The follow.
ing statement will be published toner
row morning by committee of the
Switchmen's Union:
KANSAS CRY, March 22-To Mer-
chants and Citizens of Kansas City and
vicinity: The switchmen of the various
yards iu this city and vicinity deem it
due to you as citizens and friends to
make an explanation of our walkout
this morning and the reason therefor.
We sent request to our superintend-
ents on the 9th day of March asking
them to pay us the standard wages
paid the switchmen in Chic ago. They
met us in session at the Union depot on
Saturday, the 18th, and we and they
made verbal contract that was pub
lished, or at least part of it, in the
daily morning papers of Sunday. March
IA. Since that time the switchmen
have lived up to their part of the con-
tract. But some of our superintendent
have violated and evaded the spirit
of that contract, and so we treated with
them as body of the whole we
expected them to live up to their con
tract, as whole; but as one or more
their claim they all did So
Now we come out to demand the stand
ard wages paid switchmen in Chicago.
ILL.,, and the signature of the various
to such agreement.
We are sorry if we cause you loss or
trouble, but we feel that we are right,
and will not work until we have settled
our differences with our employers.
Respectfully, The COMMITTEE.

The work of self-appointed ''regula-

of inhumanity last week in the deliber-

The congressional investigation of
the Pan-Electric Telephone business
continues to develop what was pretty
well known before, that Attorney Gen
eral Garland's immense block of stock
was given him simply and solely as a
bribe to obtain his political influence.
He accepted the bride, whether he exer
did anything to pay for it or not, and
he still holds his place in the cabinet OF
this great reform administration, and

the bill for the payment of the Grant

Our Richest Widow Dead,
C0RNELIA NJ. STEWART,
WIDOW OF THE LATE A. T. STEWART.

The richest widow in the United
States, occupant and owner of five
million dollar house, and worth it may
be, thirty million dollars, is dead. She
was remarkably well-prescrv ed woman,
and the announcement OF her Death
gave G shock to the public. The dis
ease which carried her off was IN acute
attack of pneumonia. Her remains
have been laid in the crypt OF the Cathe-
dral, Garden City, Long Island, tenn
pie erected by hcr bounty and given by
her to the Protestant Episcopal Church.
She was married to the late Alexander
I. Stewart when Lew an obscure dry
goods clerk, twenty-five years old, aud
she year younger. That was in the
year 1924. Her social position was SUI
perior to his then, she being the
daughter of James Clinch, a New York
merchant of good standing. their
married life ended in April, 1876, when
Mr.. Stewart died, the leading dry
goods merchant Of the world. It is
said that during the first ten years OF
her married life, Mrs. Stewart lived
surrounded by less Of comfort and
luxury than were enjoyed by her Scr
wants during the ten years OF her widow
hood. Mrs. Stewart leaves no children,
but considerable number Of relatives.
She was small. thin, intellectual
looking woman, sprightl;' in her carriage
and Address, in disposition sweet and
attectionate. A devcut communicate
in the Protestant Episcopal Church,
she gave largely in support OF religious
and pl!llanthropic agencies. her tastes,
naturally le4ined, were graf tie<! by the
means ct dress and surroundings the
most cl~g.snt. Even after sh. had
passed c1gnty years Of age, she adorned
herself with diamonds IN dressing for
dinner, and never neglected to make
the most of her decided natural attrac-
tions. A few years ago she began to
wear brown wig, her snow-whire hair
beginning to fall out. The reader can
Judge from the fact that she paid nine
thousand dollars in taxes last wear.
how favored among women was Cor.
holia Mitchell Stewart.
