YOUNG IRELANDERS.


Pleasant Evening Spent by Friends OF
the Party.
The Young Ireland Parliamentary Club
gave an entertainment and dance last even
ing in the large room of K. r. Is. Hall TO
the friends of the organization. Quite a
large number Of ladies were among the
guests. and all apparently enjoyed the
evenings amusement.
DR.. T. j. Galvan delivered an address on
home rule. He reviewed Irish history for
the past 700 years of lreland's struggle for
national autonomy, and said he, for one,
would be in favor Of the arbtrament of the
sword instead of Parliamentary agitation
When he mentioned ParnelPs name there
was mOmentary silence and then sickly
applause from not quite tenth of the audi
ence, where before it had been most en-
thusiasIic.
Colonel j. j. Tobin made some brief re-
marks. "a few weeks ago everything in
the cause of Ireland" said he, went along
SO smilingly that it seemed as if home rule
was in our grasp. But unfortunately at the
very moment that victory was almost as
sured our hopes were dashed down. Al
though the hopes Of the Irish people are
almost shattered to pieces let US look for the
rift in the cloud and live on, hope on and
struggle on and never fail to do our duty.
The Irish Parliamentary party are the
men III the gap, who know best what to do
under the present distressing circumstances.
We here should not say who shall be leader
this man or that man. 1t is our place to say
to our party at home: You, gentlemen. know
what is best for you, and we will sustain
you In the course you take"
A pleasing impromptu programme OF vocal
and instrumental music and Rotations was
rendered by some of the guests, after which
the floor was cleared for dancing.

Chinese, told of his voyage to EnSenada
with Chinese in transit for Mexico and
South America. During the voyage he
learned that fifty Of the Chinese
Mexico. Fifteen of the Mongols left the
steamer at Ensenada, but were arrested by
The Collector OF Customs for the San Diego
District while crossing the Mexican border
Into this country.
The remaining Chinese left the steamer at
Guaymas, and by rail went to places near
the border. They were followed by Gov
eminent officers and arrested at various
places In Arizona after they had crossed the
border. This demonstrated the fact that the
Chinese were using Mexico as an under
ground railroad to enter this country.
lntere sting testimony was given by Fres-
ident Thurman and Secretary KretlOw, of
the Council of Federated Trades. They told
why white men stand no chance against
Chinese, who reduce the wages below liv-
ing standard. There are about 1000 Chinese
shoemakers and about 1000 or 5000 Chinese
cgar-makers, working for low wages. The
Mongois invade every trade and degrade
them all.
Charles l.. Weller, an Assistant United
States District Attorney. deposed that since
The passage of the Exclusion Act the ar
rivals OF Chinese here were much lighter
than before. He had tried some good habeas
corpus cases, but in the majority of cases
prior residence was urged. Now applicants
claim tn be either merchants or native born.
There is no doubt that the exclusion laws
are great benefit to the United States and
particularly to California. The majority of
court rulings have been in favor Of landing
Chinese. Where bonds in habeas corpus
cases are forfeited it is proper to begin pro-
ceedings against the sureties, but in some
cases, where attorneys have given their
word as to the sufficiency of bonds, it might
be proper to try to collect the sum forfeited
from the attorneys.

CAUGHT OFF THE wHARvEs,

During the past week several grilse have
been caught from Ioff the wba:ves. The
Harrison and Lombard street wharves were
well patronized by fishermen last Sunday,
but, as previously stated, the young salmon
have too much food at present to notice ordi-
nary lures.
Italian fishermen are said to be seining
Tamalpais Creek at night, and selling the
fish caught to Teslaurant-keepers in this city.
Dolhyer and Wilson caught some large
grilse at Point Reyes last Sunday.

The Workingmen not Hoodwinked.

The Workingmen not Hoodwinked.
The workingmen have not been
quite as eftectually hoodwinked by the
protectionists as the organs of the latter
have assumed. The letter of the
Trades Council in Boston to the labor
organizations of Europe and the pro-
vinces shows this. "The inflow of i'm.
migration" they say, "has tended to
reduce wages so that now in numerous
cases workmen here are not any better
paid than in England, while the cost
of living in America is very high on ac-
count Of trusts and monopolies, which
control the price of food, etc.. and fix
it at an exhorbitant figure"
This is precisely what the friends of
tariff reform have been telling the
workingmen; and it is a pleasure to
know that they have been awakened to
the wrong done them by taxing the
products of foreign labor which they
are compelled to buy, while the labor
itself comes in free to take the bread
out of their mouths. The protection
lists organs have been lying to them
about this and have tried to convince
them that wages were great deal high
er here than abroad and living here
much cheaper, but the lie has failed of
its purpose. 1t must gall the protec-
ZIONIST organs to be compelled to pub
lish as an item of news this emphatic
denial by the workingmen of the pro-
tectionist arguments which have been
ladled out to them 30 persistently.-

A Remarkable Blind Man,

One of the most remarkable blind
men in America is John B. Herreshoff,
of Bristol, r. l., the head of one of the
largest shipbuilding firms-Herreshof
Bros.-in the republic. He lost his
sight at fifteen, and is now sixty odd.
He supervises the financial affairs of
the house and personally superintends
every department of his business, en-
ploying hundreds of men.
No one seeing him dictate letters, re-
ceiving reports, strolling about his ship
yards giving orders to his foremen,
would suspect his blindness. Not for
nearly fifty years has he seen the ves-
sells that ply on the bay; but he carries
their outlines clearly in his memory
and draws on these for his designs for
new craft. He can get an accurate idea
Of any model or material body by rum
ming his hands over it, and of any kind
of machinery by hearing a description
of it. He has great executive ability,
has all the REQUESTS of an eminent in
ventor, and 1t is believed that he would
have rivaled John Ericsson but for his
blindness. c .,-..
He has built some of the finest steam
yachts now af1oat, and he feels a pride
in his calling that has grown with his
years. His personality and character
are full of interest.

"Nobody Will Ever See tn

The advantages of thourouphIv adj
vertising what ever one has to sell
have been set forth by the newspapers
in the strongest light, so that most
people acknowledge the evidence to be
overwhelming. The Vslleio fCaI1
Chronicle contains the following, which
illustrates the subject, and proves that
man may be doubling Thomas. VET
have considerable faith when ii be-
comes aroused by some extraordinary
circumstance.
A short time ago We called upon a
certain party in business in Vallejo,
ana asked him why he did not adver-
tise in the Chronicle. =.
"Oh! because he answered, "whats
the use? Nobody will ever see it.n
YOU'RE mistaken" said we; "every
page in our paper is read"
Nonsense" he replied; "even il they
dld read my advertisement, people
would never think of it again. I don't
want to ADVERTISE - an =
"But-u
mo butts at all. 1 don't want to ad-
yertise, and don't bother me any more;

of sugar. ..., -. b.. - -,
Time passed, and we never again in

though meeting him daily. Yesterday

fair of mine below" l ~ ~.

flash, and he trembled SO violently that
his ,eyeballs fairly jingled; and he was
such an object of commiseration that
we promised to keep mum. This little
moral as drawn from the above, is ap-
plicable the world over. Ask a man to

CANCERS CURED.
An Ursuline Nun in st, Louis said to
Have a Remedy.

Ist. Louis Post. DIspatch.l
An Ursuline nun, located in the con.
vent of the order on State street and
Russel avenue, has been treating people
for cancers and other ailments for some
years past in a quiet way, and has met
with remarkable success. She is known
as Sister Barbara and effects her cures
not by faith or prayer, but by use OF
medicines, which she prepares, al
though she says she always peays for
the assistance of God in all her work,
and often has other sisters join her in
these prayers. Her patients, however,
are not required to pray nor asked to
have faith, her only request of them
being that they use her remedies as she
directs.
No distinction is made between Ro-
man Catholics, Protestants or any other
creed, and, in fact, patients are not even
asked their religious belief. While
Sister Barbara treats people for several
different Affections her practice is large
ly confined to the treatment of cancer.
In dealing with this dreadful affiiction
she has effected number of really re-
markable cures. She is not a licensed
physician and makes no charges for her
services, although her patients almost
invariably make donations to her, or
rather to the order of which she is a
member, as all moneys received are
turned over by her to the order.
There seems to be no doubt about the
genuineness of the cures which Sister
Barbara has effected. She does not
seem to be able to cure all cases of can
Ger, and frequently informs people who
call on her that she can do nothing for
them. The sister is a native of Ger
many, and is rather old woman, be-
ing in the sixties. One local physician
sends to her all his patients suffering
from cancers.

voted against II. The vote by which
the bill was defeated was reconsidered,
but owing to the united Republican
opposition the further consideration
of the measure was postponed until
adjourned session. You will thus OBJ
serve that the Republicans in the SEN
ate voted solidly against ballot reform.
While the Republicans in Massachus-
etts, New York and every other ad-
vanced State in the Union are voting
| for the reform of the ballot the Repub-
lican Senators of Ohio have turned
'Bourbons,' and are holding on to the
old order of learning nothing and for
Democratic Senator out of the entire
body was the only thing that atprevented
the Democratic party from giving to
the cities of the State now and to the
residue of the State in the near future
and elective system which goes far to-
ward the absolute prevention of bribery
and intimidation. 1 have no doubt that
at the next session of the Legislature
the Australian system will be engrafted
onto all the cities which have registra-
ton, If, indeed, it does not go further.
Another measure that the Republi-
cans of the State prevented was the pas
sage Of the Railroad Commission bill,
which would have resulted in the for
nation of Commission without ex-
pense to the people of the State, but
paid for by the railroads. This bill
would have secured the supervision of
these great corporations, the regulation
of their traffic, and the securing of
greater safety to the lives and property
Of the public, From both Houses the
Republicans sent messages to the Gov
ernor, saying If he would reappoint Mr..
Cappeller as one of the members of the
Commission they would solidly support
the bill. They thereby admitted that
1t was good legislation and in the line
of administrative reform which is rap
idly growing In the country, and that
the bill ought to pass, but rather than
give up Mr.. Cappeller they would let
the people suffer for want of much need
ed laws. They succeeded in their policy
only to the extent Of injuring the pec-
pie. They We're powerless to save Mr..
Cappeller. L have no doubt that the
next session of the General Assembly
will see this bill passed and
A BILL RELIEVING THE STATE
From the expense of keeping up the Of
flee, which, as it stands, Is useless lux
ury. I might add, too, that no Legis-
lature that ever sat here is to be more
commended for withstanding the allur-
ments of gentlemen who had schemes
to foist upon the people. ...
"The crowning glory of the first ses-
sion of the Sixty-nineth General AS
semblv ia the bills IL did not mass. Rad
bills had no chance, and while there are
some goods ones that failed, there is a
qualification in knowing that many
more bad ones failed also. ,-
taking it all together, the people have
cause to rejoice in the action of their
representatives here, and especially is
the Democratic party of Ohio to be con-
graduated upon the glorious record OF
the men whom it sent to both Houses
of the .Sixty-ninth General Assembly.
AS we look to the future, nothing can
be brighter than the prospects of the
Ohio Democracy" -
