Michael Davitt and Irish Politics.

Y A political incident OF more than ordinary
Significance is the appearance Of Mr..
MICHAEL DAyrTT as the McCarthyite candi-
date for the seat in Parliament for Water
ford left vacant by the death Of Mr. RICH
ARD POWER. On the outbreak Of the
quarrel in the Irish party Mr.. DAvTTT was
recognized rs the one man whose popular
fly and influence in Ireland could vie with
Mr.. PARsKLI's. and at several by-elections
be was urgently requested to come for
ward. The request has been hitherto de-
clined for reasons Ineligible to those who
have marked the attitude which Mr.. DAvTTT
has OF late years taken toward political
questions and parties. II he has now de-
cided to enter Parliament. 1t can scarcely be
Because he was the victim Of personal
outrage at Waterford. for this is not the
1rst time he has been maltreated In the
course of the strife between the Parnellite
and MoCarthyite factions. It is rather be-
cause Waterford Is o stronghold OF bir.
PARNNIL's followers and can only be
wrenched from them with difficulty.
Wherever he goes. the founder OF tho
Land League will DO o leader, not being the
sort Of man to take orders from any one.
No SCORER will he appear In Parliament
than he will gather around him band Of
adherents whose position may not always
coincide with that occupied by Mr.. JOHN
DILLON and other McCarthyites. The def
erence which he refused to show TO Mr..
PARNELL in matters Of agrarian and politi-
cal principles. he is not likely to evince
toward Mr.. PARN ELLIS successor. AT the
general election OF 1885 Mr.. DAvrrr refused
TO follow the line traced for Irishmen in
British constituencies by Mr.. PARNELL.
although the latter was then at the
height OF his power. In pursuance Of
an understanding which he supposed
himself to have effected with Lord CAR
HARvos and Lord RANDOLPH CHURCHILL.
Mr.. PARNELL advised all Irish voters
In England. Wales. and Scotland. to sup
port Conservative candidates. Mr.. DAvITT.
whose relations with English Radicals and
Socialists were then and are now intimate.
declined to carry out Mr.. PARNELL's wishes.
and used his influence in Scotland, whore he
happened to be. to array the Irish electors
on the side OF the Liberal nominees. The
result OF the election was that the Tories
and Natiopallsts combined were too weak to
push home rule bill through tho House Of
Commons. and accordingly the projected al
uAnoe between them was abandoned. What

Indian Ideas Of Future Life.

The Iroquois and Hurons, believed in a
country for the souls Of the dead, which
they called the country of ancestors"
This country lies to the west, from which
direction their traditions told them they
had migrated. Spirits must go there after
death by very long and painful journey;
climb many mountains and cross many
rivers, and just as the long sought haven
appears in the distance the spirit must
cross long, narrow bridge and fight with
monster dog which stands guard at the
west end. Weak souls are not equal to
this task, and many of them are pushed
over the narrow edges of the bridge into
the rushing waters below, to be swept
through dark canyons and over immense
precipices forever.
This road, according to the ideas of the
two tribes mentioned above, is all on earth,
but several of the Indian tribes consider
the Ii ;ht band across the heavens, which
the astronomers call the milky Way" to
be the path of the soul. The main body OF
the stars in this milky path they suppose
to be human souls on their journey 10
heaven, the smaller one to be the souls of
dogs and other pet animals which are &C
companying their masters to the land of
bliss.-St. Louis Republic.

The Biz Canals of the World.

The longest canal in the world is the I'm
perial canal OF China, which starts from
Pcliin, connects the II0ang-HO, Yang-tse.
Kiang and a number of other rivers, passes
by the gates Of fOTty-One cities. and with
its branches affords nearly 1000 miles of
water communication in the heart of the
empire. The next in length is the Ganges
canal, constructed for the purpose of irri-
eating the plains between the Ganges and
the Jumna. The main line is SIS miles in
length, and its branches probably double
this distance. The Erie canal is the third, 1863
miles in length, begun in 1917 and finished
eight years later. There are several canals
in Europe whose length exceeds a hundred
miles; the Languedoc canal, connecting
the Atlantic with the Mediterranean, is
14S miles long, and by means of hundred
or more locks ascends to point 600 feet
above the sea.
The largest ship canal in Europe is the
North Holland canal, from Amsterdam to
the Helder, distance of fifty-One miles;
the Forth and Clyde canal in Scotland is
thirty-five miles, and the Caledonian some

ANECDOTES OF SHERMAN.
He Was Called "Cump" by the Boys.
The Cigar Story with Him i'm 1t.

The Cigar Story with Him i'm 1t.
The young men of Lancaster, O., where
Sherman lived with Senator Ewing when
boy, were fond of loafing about the store
and listening to the stories of the older
loafers. The boys always called William
Tecumseh "CumD," and one of them says
he was among the latest Of them, and that
he could Away. be fr>.nd at the stores of
an evening "He Was different fellow"
says this gentleman, from John, who was
a great reader and a sort of plodder.
'Cump' had great idea of going to West
Point, and he talked of it continually. L
shall never forget the day his uncle finally
got him his appointment. He was so hap
ply he could hardly contain himself, and he
almost walked on the air for several days"
Sherman began to command those about
him at a very early age His first recorded
order was issued at the time of his baptism,
which, though his father and mother were
strict Presbyterians, was not celebrated
till a few months after the death of his
father, when the future general was quite
lad. When his name was given to the
preacher he objected to baptzng youth
by the name of heather Indian (Tecum-
seh). He wanted to call the boy simply
William. But the boy would not have it
so. He stopped the ceremony. Said he:
my father called me Tecumseh and Te-
cumseh l will be called. If you baptize
me so, all right. If you will not, will
have none of your baptism" The preach
er waived the point and the ceremony
went on. 4
Many great men are absent minded, and
the general was not free from this failing.
An old comTade tells this story:
An incident happened on Pine Mountain.
Georgia, the evening that Gen. Sherman sent
his famous dispatch, Hold the fort; am COM
ing" TO Alatoona, Oct. 5, 1864. The general re-
ceived a fresh cigar from some one, cigars be-
ing scarce, and beganNto shout for light.
Lieut.. J. Clarence Peck, of Gen. Wnittaker's
staff, was the fortunate possessor Of a freshly
lighted cigar, and he politely handed it to Gen.
Sherman, who lit his own cigar and then de-
liberatey threw the lieutenants cigar away.
A broad smile displayed itself all around. The
general was thinking of those million rations
at Alatoona, but it didn't appease the disgust
of the lieutenant, -,
Just before the election of 1888 a New
York political club decided TO serenade the
general. A committee saw him about it
beforehand to learn if it would be agreea-

make much of a speech, but if you care to
have a few off hand remarks will make
them; but insist upon one condition. Your
band must not play Marching Through
Georgia 1t is a good air, and all that,
but for just about quarter of a century
no band of music has ever knowingly
played to me without using it. That has

another note of it."

What Is art?
We do not need to look in the books for
a definition. Art nowadays Is visible all
about us, in almost everything we use.
1t is to be seen not alone in pictures on the
walls. in the form and ornamentation of
public buildings and private houses, and
in articles worn for personal adOrnment.
1t is in the humblest things we use-in the
form and ornaments of the lamp at which
we sit to read, in the legs and cover of the
table, in the pitcher from which we pour
drink of water, and the tumbler from
which we drink it, in the handle of boys
jackknife, in the pattern of girls calico
gown. 1920
1t is impossible to escape the application
of art to industry; the farmer sees it in the
design painted on his lumber wagon, and
his wife sees it in the castings upon her
kitchen stove and in the backs and legs of
her kitchen chairs.
