Mr.. Davitt replied calmly that he had
not insulted Mr.. Finerty, and he was not
going to be intimidated by anyone. lie
had never questioned the honesty OF Mr..
Fnerty's purposes, nor had he ever boast
ed OF what he would be willing to suffer
for Ireland, but he would ask Mr.. Finerty
If they in Ireland had not, with the move
ment resting solely on moral force, raised
the Irish race to dignity 1t had never
attained before.
Mr.. Finerty conceded they had.
MR.. FINERTY sHELvED.
The convention then emphatically sig.
nified its wish that Mr.. Finerty should
resume his seat, which he did after some
persuasion.
Mr.. Redmond, one OF the Irish delegates,
arose and said:
As Mr.. Flnerty's speech was certain to
be quoted by their enemies in the English
press he felt 1t his duty 60 say that Mr.
Finerty did not do Justice to him or his
speech by saying that his speech was In
the slightest an advance upon the resolu'
tions of the convention, as Mr.. Finerty
had said he MIR. Finerty) did not vote for
the resolutions of the convention.
Mr.. Finerty's individual expressions Of
opinion, after the business OF the conven-
Ulon was over, were not representative
and could not represent the sentiment oi
the convention.
SULLIVAN sMooTHEs THE DIFFERENCES
Alex. Sullivan endeavOred to quiet the
delegates. The one long shout of the con-
vention would not cease and could not be
diminished.
Mr.. Sullivan rose, cool and collected,
and making his way to the platform was
given a reception the like OF which for
warmth is seldom witnessed in conven-
tion OF Irishmen. With clearness and
loudness of voice that admonished his
nearest acquaintance Mr.. Sullivan said
II profoundly regret that at this conven.
tion, in so great and so significant an as.
semhlage as this, a single word has been
uttered that would place us in position
of having a semblance OF difference.
am sure that such word was from the
heart and not from the head. l disagree
with no man in declaring absolutely
and unqualihedly the right OF Ireland &c
govern Ireland, and | cannot disagree
with these gentlemen from lreland-these
brave men-that the Irish people, led by
their wendrous leader, had indeed won a
signal advantage for lreland's cause
Mr.. Parnell," exclaimed Mr.. Sullivan,
"has not been able to command an Irish
Parliament in Dublin, but he has been
able TO say to an English Parliament In
London, thus far shalt thou go and nc

"There is no ruler upon the broad earth
tonight whose word OF command is sc
readily Obeyed as the word of Charles
Stewart ParneH. We come here as broth.
ers; let us depart as brothers."
Mr.. Sullivan. as chairman of the local
committee OF arrangements, then began
reading in a subdued voice list of the
various announcements The convention
which, through his address had been al
| ternately spell bound and wildly entnusi
astic, was now as still and orderly as dur
ing the passage between Mr.. Davitt anC
Mr.. Finerty it had been uproarious anC
turbulent.
The convention adjourned at11 o'clo cl
tonight.

MR.. pAvIrT REPLIES.

Mr.. Davitt once more took the plat
form, and said be could not allow the
speech OF Mr.. Flnerty TO pass without a
word from him. Those who were the first
10 oppose moral force were always the
fret 10 come forward with speeches.
Mr.. Flnerty here advanced excitedly
and claimed he should not be insuited.

The Mexican white house or presidential

The frescong and painting have been execut-

is ebony and gold, and the bed is of ebonized

grotto paved with marble mosaics, and having
walls OF painted French tiles. On the first
floor is tropical garden, and the roof, after
the manner of eastern houses, is q beautiful
garden OF flowers and fountains. The finest
room of all is described as ''the parlor," and
is said to be like the princess apartments in

A Story That Doesn't End In the

II want to tell you . story, may ! ~ This

Ia the way he went on: ''Some years ago two
young men went to work for the same firm In
Wall street Their salaries were the same,
their opportunities even their tastes similar,
and, generally, they were on par all round.
Both married, neither adding much to his
dollar and cent account in that way. They
climbed along together. Eight years ago
they were drawing ayearly salary Of 5000
apiece; but in one particular the twain diff

own funds himself. When A wanted funds
during the week he went to his wife for it;
he took but certain sum from home each
day for lunch and incidental expenses. When
b wanted funds during the week he dved into
his own pockets for 1t. He didn't need-this
was his boast-he didn't need any petticoat
fnanciering in his family. had lots Of fun
at AS expense as the weeks heaped them
selves up into months AMI piled into year,
but A seemed rather to have the whip end
when, at the end Of the twelfth month, he

Schools Half q Century Ago.


The records Of the school committee OF
fifty or sixty years ago furnish interesting
hints OF comparison aud contrast between the
conduct Of school matters in those days and
now. One Of the record. books extends from
March, 1921, to March, 1882 and the first
thing to strike one is the number and compo-
sition Of the committee.
The clergy and selectmen were members ex.
ofiicio, and the clergy are recorded first as
such, next the selectmen under that title, AMI
then the members chosen in town meeting.
Although the town has less than one-third OF
the population OF the present city, the school
committee in 1923 numbered twenty three
ten more than at present, composed of the
seven ministers in the town, FIVE selectmen,
and eleven chosen especially for that purpose.
Another serious thing to consider is the diff
ference in the pay of teachers.
In 1881 1t was voted that Mr.. Roger 8.
Howard take the entire charge of the gram.
mar school, teach seven hours per day, furnish
at his own cost the assistants, one for writing
and another for other branches, the assistants
to be such as the committee shall approve,
and that Mr.. Howard be allowed 5000 pei
year for himself and assistants. The gram.
mar school was the high school, while the two
schools next lower in grade for boys wer,
Lancasterian schools, the masters of which
were paid $500 year each. There were also
girls grammar schools, subordinate girls
schools, taught by women, under the title Of
preceptresses. The salary voted to pre-
ceptress OF grammar school was SIS year
and of other schools $50 year.
Several Of the women teachers are entitled
''Mrs.," and in their report of visiting the
schools Of these ladies, the committee enum
crate so many as ready in the bible and Sc
many in the testament, it being a promotion
to be advanced from the testament to thu
bible. Even in those days, t report shows,
there was movement to abolish corpora
punishment in the schoo S.

Buying His Own Wool.

Tom Perkins. the well-known barber.
tells a funny story of little deal in
wool he recently engineered. One day
he was enjoying the fresh air in the
park, when he noticed pet sheep in
the deer keep. wearing a very heavy
fleece. 1t was warm day, and Tom
pitied the animal, and asked Supern-
tenGent Kreiger why he did not shear
it. Kreiger said the sheep belonged to
Henry Horkheimer. but that it ought
to be sheared, and if Perkins would
take off its wool he might have the
fleece.
Perkins saw chance for little fun
ny speculation, and he cut the wool off
car efully and brought it to town. He
took it to Horkheimer Brothers, and
approaching Mr.. Henry Horkheimer,
threw down the wool and said: What
will you give me for that?'
Hello, Toni" said Mr. Horkheimer;
.'gone into wool now?'
Eyes, I'll do anything to turn an
honest penny"
Mr.. Horkhelmer felt the wool, look
ed at it, pronounced it a rarely fine
fleece indeed, weighed it, and gave
Perkins $1.75 for the fleece.
A few days afterward he met Mr..
Kreiger, and asked him if that sheep
did not want shearing.
"Oh, no." was the response, tom
Perkins was out there the other day,
and gave him the wool to take it off. !"
Mr.. Horkheimer said that was all
right When he next saw Perkins he
asked il he had any more wool to sell.
NO" said Perkins laughing, "but
the aext time go out to the park | will
bring you in a nice sheep at low fig
