An Interesting Pen Picture Of Bright
Energetic Minneapolis Lady.

An Interesting Pen Picture of Bright,
Energetic Minneapolis Lady.
In an article in the July number of the
Arena on s'Women in the Alliance Move
ment,'' the following description of a
we'll known Minneapolis lady is given:
The jauntiest, sauciest, prettiest little
woman in the whole coterie of women in
the Alliance is piquant little Eva Nc
Donald Valesh. A fun-loving, jolly,
prankish elf of woman, quite as much
at home on an improvised store-box
platform on the street corner, speaking
earnestly to her toil-hardened brother
Knights of Labor, as in the drawing
room, radiating sparkling wit and repair
tee. All places and all experiences fall
naturally within Mrs. Valesh's versatile
sphere. Her career as public speaker,
covering period of about two years, has
been one of brilliant and efficient service
to the cause of political reform. She
was state lecturer Of the Minnesota Al
lance, and has spoken in several states,
never failing to captivate her audiences.
Her youthful appearance is quite in con-
trast to the maturity of her thought.
She is conversational rather than elocu-
tionary in style. Her voice is clear and
strong. She uses apt illustrations, strong
statement, and good logic.
At the state convention of the Peoples
party Of Ohio, held at Springfield in the
summer of 1891, she was the principal
speaker at the evening mass meeting.
Her address was rapturously applauded.
In the course Of her remarks she referred
to the opposition to women on the ros-
trum, saying that she hoped to be able
to speak for woman's cause as long az
there were homeless, voiceless women,
helpless to cope with the hard conditions
Of life. This she intended to do regard
less Of the prejudice that would releeate
her to the four square walls Of home.

WHEN MARY DIED.

The dear home stands in shady grove,
Among whose branches the mourning dove
Calls to its mate through the summer day,
Where sunlight and shadows ever play;
Here came the raindrops and evening dew,
Like to the sorrows and hopes we knew,
Which fell on our lives in rising tide,
And oped the foodgates of sorrow wide,
When Mary died.
When Mary died,
The SUNNI er was dying and the bright leave!
said:
*'Soon must we drop to our messy bed;
The nights are chill and the summer air
Grows cold, and the flowers once so fair
Henceforth will fade and cease to bloom:
Soon will the frost king seal our DOOM"
And the flowers, bending low. replied;
ssWe wait the summons side by side,
When Mary died.
When Mary died.
@ sacred room in the old home place!
And memories dear OF loving face,
A halo of glory where the dear mead lay,
As eLbed that preciousli life away;
We thought fond voices mingled there,
That we heard football on the stair;
1.-THE bridegroom cometh to meet his BRIDE"
Said the angel voice OIL hedSeAly Su1uO,
When Mary died.
When Mary died,
The autumn winds went whispering low
Through branches swaying to and fro,
Their leafess boughs approaching high,
Whose fallen leaves went hurrying by;
Leaves that fell near flowers dead,
While stars were watching overhead
The dear home stands by the old roadside,
Where the morning air seemed sanctified,
When Mary died.
When Mary died,
Fair angels came one Sabbath morn
On their snowy wings her spirit borne
Went up to Heaven, and the gates ajar
Awaited her coming from aiar,
Still the dear home stands in D. clustering grove,
Wherein stars shone bright from realms above
Through the pearly gates OF morningtide.
AS the curtains OF night were drawn aside,

The Ponderous Crown Of England.

The Ponderous Crown of England.
II Queen Victoria we're compelled to
wear all the time the beautiful crown OF
which she is so worthy, she would be a
woman greatly to be pitied and never to
be envied, for that magnificent affair
weighs nearly two pounds. Uneasy lies
the head that wears the crown" is a pro-
verb easily understood when one realizes
this; and yet, when one considers what
the crown of the Queen contains. it ought
not to be difficult to realize that it is
heavy. It holds more than 1900 precious
stones, more than 2,700 of which are dia-
monds. The golden head-band holds
two rows of pearls, the lower having 1919
and the upper 112 of these treasured
stones. Between these bands in front is
a large sapphire, and behind is a small
sapphire-small only when compared
with the one in front, however-with six
still smaller ones and eight emeralds. Be-
tween the sapphires fore and aft are
ornaments containing 286 diamonds.
Surrounding the band are eight sap
phires, above which are eight diamonds,
and eight festoons which hold 100 dia-
monds, and in the front, set in a Maltese
cross composed of Is large diamonds, is
the magnificent ruby given to the Black
Prince in 1867 by Pedro, King of CASTLE,
and which was born by that dashing
monarch Henry V. on his helmet at the
battle Of Agincourt.
In addition to these, three crosses con-
trining 386 diamonds are set around the
upper part of the crown, between which
are four ornaments, each holding ruby
in it's centre, and containing respectively
81, sc, IS and 81 diamonds. From the
crosses rise four arches composed OF oak
leaves and acorns, the oak leaves con-
tanning 728 diamonds, and the acorns-
80 in number-made each OF single
pearl set in cups composed OF diamonds.
Surrounding the arches is the base of
the cross which surmounts the whole.
The base, or mound, as it is called, con-
tains 548 diamonds, and the cross-the
browning glory Of all this magnifcence-
contains huge sapphire and LIP dia-
mOnde. s
OF course, anything 80 grand as this is
worth great deal Of money, and the
value placed upon it by experts is 81

anyone could buy it for twice that
amount. It is kept in great iron cage

Doctor Doyle.

One Of the most illustrious of Ireland's
patriotic priesthood in the early part of
the present century was the famous Doc
tor Doyle, Bishop of Kildare and Leigh
lin. When boy, just entering on his
teens and receiving his first impressions
Of the world around him, he was wit
ness to the fearful Battle of Ross and
the attendant horrors of the Insurrec-
ton of 1893, which we have referred to
recently in these columns. He spent 8
few years finishing bis education at the
monastery Of Coimbra, in Portugal, and
in the Peninsular War engaged in the
Spanish service. He returned to Ireland
in 1903. and the Dext year was ordained
priest, and for some time figured as
teacher in the Friary at New Ross and
Professor of Rhetoric in Carlow College.
In 1914 he was made Professor of Theo-
logy. His abilities attracted such gene
raj attention that on the death of Bishop
Corcoran, Bishop of Kildare and Leigh
lin, he was chosen as his successor. His
energy and patriotic zeal soon brought
him national reputation. He entered
into politics heart and soul, in the deter
mination to aid in securing Catholic
Emancipation, and under the signature
os u. K. L." soon became one Of the
best known public writer's of the day.
1t would be quite impossible to specify
his untiring efforts in the great strug-
giles of the time. His statesmanlike
abilities were recognized by all, and he
became power in the country on the
questions of Emancipation, Education
Reform, Anti-1 1.-THE, and Poor Relief. In
his diocese he had much to contend with
in the turbulent character of many of
his flock, and was incessant in his en-
deavor to suppress the illegal combina-
tions consequent upon the unsettled
state of the country. He was often at
issue with O'Connell, particularly on the
Repeal movement, which he thought I'M
advisable. He was the first prelate that
Joined the Catholic Association, and
thereby opened the way for it's ultimate
success. At one time he entertained
hopes of the possibility of union OF the
Established and Catholic Churches. On
no occasion did he more closely rivet
public attention than during his exam
nations before committees of Parliament
in 1925, 80, and '32. The readiness OF
his answers and the grasp OF his mind
much impressed the public. "Well, you
have been examining Doctor Doyle" a
person remarked, to the Duke of Well
ington. "No, but he has been examining
u.s." was the reply. A life of constant
mental strain and patriotic devotion to
the interests of his Church and his coun-
try broke down his constitution at an
early age. He died at Carlow, June To-,
1884, aged 48, and was buried in the
cathedral he had built, and which is now
adorned with splendid statue OF him
by Hogan. In person he was tall and
commanding; his countenance was intel
lectual. Though endowed with much
softness of heart, his presence was on the
whole austere. Like many other men
who have begun public life as liberals,
and have seen the reforms they advo-
Gated accomplished, be tended III his
latter days towards conservatism.

alleged that he was unaware who was
entitled to be paid, and claimed to be re-
lieved from costs accordingly. Mr..

be made by the defendant with view to
obtaining relief from costs, he thought
the plaintiff ought to have an opportu-

from the decision df the archbishops in refer

Chicago during the progress Of the Worlds
fair in that city, Most Rev. John Ireland
DID,, archbishop or st. Paul, Mimi, who is
now in Rome, SAID 1.-THE whole matter is q
tempest in a teapot. Anybody may send a
letter to Rome on any subject. Whether tho
communication receives attention, however,
is quite another question. Certain peo-
pie attain sin oh their own fancies
an Importance which the outer gworld
refuses to endorse rho letter sent by
Messrs. Dunno, Pallen, Kuhlmann and
others, will not create the slightest ripple in

thought. There are waste baskets in Rome
as well as in the United States The idea is
absurd that an appeal by a few disgruntled
ana self-conceited men against the decisions
of the archbishops will be listened to in
Rome. II Messrs. Dunno and Pallen had any
grievances why did they not, In true Ameri-
can fashion, speak them out plainly instead
of seeking redress by tortuous means9 There
Is nanifestly some other design in their
minds than that OF putting the Catholic con-

Life-sympathy Expressed for His
Slaycr-Detaiis of the Af,Ir.

SAN Francisco, Cal, March 5.-News from
the Orient of an extraordinary parallel of
the Deacon case reached here today. This
ono is IN Yokohama, Japan, aud the Ameri-
can husband is Lieutenant Hethcrington of
the federal navy. The dead Lothario is
wealthy English resident Of Japan. The re-
port brought by the steamer City of Peklng
is that George Cover Robinson, awell known
resident of Yokohama, was shot and killed
February 10 by Lieutenant Hetheringtou.
The latter, 1t is alleged was jealous of Rob
inson's attentions TO Mrs. Hotherington.
The lieutenant surrendered himsolf and is
confined aboard the Marion.
Robinson. the young man killed Dv Hoth-
erington, was young banker. He was born
In Yokohama and educated in England. Ho
was very handsome moved in the best So
ciety and being well known man about
town was extremely popular Some time
ago he began paying attentions TO Mrs.
Hetherington and was so devoted that their
intimacy became the gossip of the town.
Hetherington told Robinson that he must re-
frain from seeing Mrs. Hetherington aud
that he had better leave town. Robinson
promised to obey aud went away.
HQ Killed for His Attention.
In two weeks he returned and became more
devoted than ever to Mrs. Hetherin gton. On
the evening of February 3 Robin son with a
friend named Pars was out driving when
some on the road called out for him to stop.
Robinson pulled up his horse, when two shots
were fired from pistol. The first one
missed, but the second took effect In Robin
sons groin and he fell out of the buggy.
Pars also jumped out and seized Hethering
ton, who did the shooting. he was arrested
and placed in jail. Robinson died soon after
the shooting.
On account Of the prominence Of both men
and Robinson's popularity the affair created n
great sensation. Public sympathy is largely
with Hetherington. Passengers from Yoko
hama who arrived on the steamer today state

been unduly intimate with Mrs. Hethering-
ton

Two Important Decisions Handed Down by
That Body.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 5.-The supreme
court handed down TO-DAY a decision in tho
quo warrauto proceedings of d. X Horton
and others against Il. Wilder and others.
The parties to the suit are stockholders in
the San Diego Land company, incorporated
under the laws of Kansas but doing business
in California. The decision upholds the
Kansas law, providing that ut least three
directors OF every company Incorporated
under tho laws of this state shall be citizens
of Kansas. Two factions were contendine
for the control Of the corporation
and the ballot for directors resulted in
the election of eleven nonresidents. The
chairman of tho meeting declared three resi-
dents of Kansas elected Notwithstanding
the vote, and eight nonrosieents who re-
ceived the highest vote. The three nonresi-
dents who had been elected, but who wore
forced to give way under the decision OF the
chairman OF the meeting, instituted the pro-
ceedings, but the court held that they were
not on titled 10 relief under the law. Tho
capital stock OF the company was 81 100000.
The court also handed down an opinion IN
the case OF the state against George Nolan.
This case is important, because IL calls in
question the Kansas law prescribing pun
ishment for oil crimes, aud had not the
decision Of tho lower court been sustained
the Kansas penitentary would have been
depopulated. Edward Farris a negro of
Atchison, was convicted of arson. His at
torney appealed the case to the supreme
court claiming that the failure to insert III
the Kansas law tho words sin the peuiten-
tiary" after the words confined at hard
labor'' was fatal omission. Chief Justice
Horton In handing down the decision said the
intention of the trainers of the law was APP
parent that the confinement prescribed
should be in the penitentiary and that SEN
tences to that effect were not in violation of
the laws or constitution OF the United States.
The case will now be appealed to the United
States supreme court,
