still hangs over him in Dublin an indictment
for high treason. Eyenif Stephens was ready
to inaugurate new movement for securing
absolute Irish independence by force, he
would find no following now, it is probable
The nearest approach to Fenianism now in
existence in Ireland is, perhaps, the Young
Ireland Society Of Dublin, which contends for
the policy, identical with that of the organi-
cation of which Stephens was the head, which
would make open war for the independents
of Ireland.
James Stephens was originally clerk In the
Office of the railway contractor in the County
Tipperary. He was wounded in the rebellion
of 184S, but made his escape to Paris, where he
earned his living by translating English books
into French. In 1855 he returned to Ireland
and the next year in association with Thomas
Clarke Luby founded Fenianism. He started
the Fenianorganization In America two years
after. In the height OF its strength Fenianism
is believed to have had as many as $4,000
members in Ireland and possibly three times
as many on this side of the Atlantic. Fenian-
ism virtually broke down in 1868 and Stephens
was arrested. He escaped from prison few
weeks after Stephens, who had made his
home on the Continent of Europe since the
failure OF tho conspiracy led by him, has
visited America three times since 1868,
last time in 1879.

OF several persons who have been

or diphtheria enters familyi it is a rare
thing for all the members TO be attacked.
The great majority escaped IA grippe
during its late prevalence. And the

This difference is mainly due 10 differ
ence in personal susceptibility, inherited
or acquired. Disease invades the body
at points where its life forces are weak
ened Such a lowering Of the vital re-
Eistance may date hack for generstiona..
This is one reason for the astounding
mortality Of infants, 30 immensely be-
yond that in the young of some of the
lower animals Many persons who start
with small power Of resistance carry il
through life Their only hope is con-
slant care and freedom from exposure.
But of those who reach adult age the
greater part may be supposed to have
inherited an average measure OF physi-
cal soundness. Whence their susceph-
biity to disease? It comes from physi-
cal transgression. either positive or mega
tive.
Sleep, for instance, h a fundamental
condition of high health. Nothing can
make up for a deficiency of it. Lack Of
food does not begin to equal lack Of
sleeD in its power to depress vitality, and
SO to render the system liable to any
prevailing disease. StiI insuficiency Of
food is a great depressant, and may ex-
ist where it is least expected, for the

that is not too hypocritical to speak It's

the Democrats way down in their hearts
think of the Farmers Alliance.
As the chief plank IN the Alliance plat
form are the demands referred to, and as
no wise and disinterested man of any

Democratic party can not do so. The
