Prima facie, Ireland has not only a
good claim, but really the best claim to
be the Tlapallan of the Mexicans. 1t is
the most western part Of Europe; it is
i~nsular, and in the earlier centuries of
the Christian era was known AS the
"Holy Island" Between A. ID. 500 and
a. d. 500 1t was the most active center
of missionary enterprise in Europe, and
it's missionaries were conspicuous above
all others for their daring maritime I'D
ventures. 1t is natural, therefore, TO
suspect that Ireland may have been the
home Of Quetzatcoatl, and, if that were
so, TO expect that early Irish records
would contain some references to him
and his extraordinary voyage.
Upon this the inquiry suggests itself.
Do the early Irish chronicles, which are
voluminous and minute, contain any
thing relating to a missionary voyage
across the Atlantic at all corresponding
to that which Quetzatcoatl must have
taken from some part Of western Europe2
To one who, step by step, had arrived
at this stage Of the present inquiry, it
was not Il little startling to come across
an obscure and almost forgotten record,
which is, in all its main features, in
most striking conformity with the Mex
lean legend Of Quetzacoatl. This is the
curious account Of II transatlantic voy-
age of = certain Irish ecclcsiastic named
st Brendan in the middle Of the Sixth
century-about A. ID. 600. The nara.
tive appears to have attracted little or
no attention in modern times. but it was
widely diffused through the middle ages.

Age Of Steel.


From official data complied from a
contemporary it appears that the total
length Of increase in the railways Of the
world during the five years ending
December 81, 1888, was 63 ,s94 miles. or
this increase America furnished 40 0s4
miles, the United States alone building
30,774 miles. There were 3044 miles Of
new lines constructed in Canada; 1860
in the Argentine Republic, and l7fs in
Brazil In Europe, France and Germany
lead. each furnishing 25l4 miles of new
lines; Austria. 2272 miles; Russia,
226e miles, and Italy, APO miles.
The total increase in the United
Kingdom was only 9S4 miles
spain built 6l2 miles; Sweden, $40
miles; Roumania, $40 miles 2S7 miles
we're laid in Belgium; 2l5 miles in the
Netherlands and Luxemborg; 305 miles
in Greece; l75 in servia; los miles in
Turkey; 240 in Portugal; % miles in
Switzerland, and 43 miles in Denmark
Not single mile of new liae was con-
structed in Norway British India con
tributed the next largest proportion to
the increase, the number of miles being
1886 The territories OF the Russian En-
pire come next ia order, with an increa'e
of TAG miles. Japan made an addition to
her railway system of 1856 miles In
China and Persia no increase was made
Africa and Algeria added BS miles
Egypt did nothing The increase in
Australia was 2SI9 miles. II 1t were
possible to obtain data showing the 10
crease in new lines Of railway constructed
during the past two and a half years, it
would probably be found that the ratio
Of increase during this period is as great
as that during the period just reviewed.
At the present time, however. there Is
little activity in the construction of new
lines. and it would be bard to conjectuIe
how long this state Of affairs will exist
Although it is estimated that nearly S3l-
600 900 600 has been expended in the
construction Of railways throughout the
globe, yet the worlds railways are by
no means all built. The development
and expansion Of new Industries, togeth-
er with the opening up of new terrific
ries, will make marked increase in the
worlds systems of railways imperative

The census report of the iron ore in
dustry contains some figures that would
be- surprising but for the explanations
that accompany them, The quantity of
iron ore mined In 1882 was more than
twice ss great rs the quantity produced
In 1880, but the average value fell from
1926 per long ton in 1880 to 81 30 In
1889. The increased product and the
reduced value were both brought about
by the consolidation of smaller opera
lions and consequent increase OF facili-
ties for conducting the business eeonom.
ically, and also by the development OF
the industry In the Southern States,
where labor is cheap The average pay
OF miners has been increased, however,
due to steadier work.
