Opening an Umbr ella.

It might be difficult or very easy to
open an umbrella, and of course there
are an untold number of ways of spread
ing its covering. The point particularly
in mind is the opening Of an umbrella in
the house, which portends some awful
calamity, and is an omen of evil. Such
has been the voice of come famed author
of superstition at least, likened unto the
reflection cast upon the deeds done on
Friday, or the stepping on the tail of a
cat. Such idle fancies are not the affairs
of to-day. One will travel now on Sun
day if necessary without fear of moral
results. The Minneapolis and St. Louis
Ry. trains run daily including Sunday,
and can accommodate all circumstances.

1I'm only an Irishman. WILLIAM O'BR1EN.
Only an misunderstanding here,
Pleading his country's cause
Pleading the common claim OF man
To equal and righteous laws
Asking that England's far-famed power
May no curse, but blessing be
To subjects in the ''sister Isle,"
Just over The rolling sea!
Only an lrishman! Centuries old
Is the wound which these words disclose,
For, England has striven to make the men
OF Ireland her bitterest foes.
BY the conqueror's power and cruel sword
And oppression's ruthless hand
For hundreds of years. her pride has been
To crush and coerce the land.
Only an Irishman Who have been
'Mong our first in senate and field?-
With the brain of power, and heart of fire,
AND courage that would not yield?
Among the chief in the skilful use.
Of the tongue, the sword, the pen,
Their home was the isle of crime and shame
They were only Irishmen!
Only an Irishman Yet will dawn
brighter, more precious day,
When conquering Might shall join hands witt
Right,
And Justice shall hold her sway
When in one fond link OF brotherhood
Old Ireland and England are bound,
And the bravest hearts and brightest homes
In fair Erin'sland be found!

COLUMBUS DAY.

Reasons for the Change of Date from Oct
IL to Oct. 81.
The recent action of congress chang
ing the date for the national public
school celebration from Oct. IL to 21 is a
step in the direction of scholarly accur-
acy, and it is remarkable that it should
have been SO long overlooked.
II there is to be national observance
of the 4O0th anniversary of the discovery
of America it should take place on the
date which marks the true century point.
It is obviously stupid to await the recurr-
ence of date which by reason of arbi-
trary changes in the methods OF reckon
ing time has lost it's significance and does
not indicate the true cycle Of years.
Every American knows that Colum-
bus discovered this hemisphere on Oct.
~, 1892, and at first thought Oct. IL, 1892
would seem to mark the 4O0th anniver-
eary of that event. But it will be re-
membered that time was then calculated
upon different basis than is now in
vogue.
For many centuries the Julian calen-
dar was the accepted authority for all
calculations, although it's inaccurracy
was not unknown. In 1882 reforma-
ton took place. The Gregorian calendar
was then introduced in Europe, and this
calendar is now used by all civilized ma
tions, with the exception of Russia,
which still adheres to the Julian method
of computing time. When this reforma-
ton occurred it was found necessary to
drop 10 days from the calendar; and Oct.
4, 1852. became October Is, 1852. These
dropped days were the accommodations of
many centuries of erroneous reckoning.
The Julian calendar assumed that year
contained 364A days, and as this was Ii
minutes and IA seconds too long, the
error amounted to three days every year.
The Gregorian calendar corrected this
defect by making every centurial year a
common year unless divieible by 400.
whereas by the Julian calendar every
year (centurlal year included) Invisible
by four was leap year. Thus by the
new style of computation the years 1900
100, and 1900 were not leap years.
As previously stated the reformation
took place in 1882, and 10 days were sup
pressed. But as the discovery Of Ameri-
ca was previous to the year 1900, which
by the Gregorian calendar was common
there are but nine days to omit. Conse'
quentiy on October 81, 1892, the sun will
occupy the same relative position to the
earth as on the 18th of October, 1892
when for the first time Columbus beheld
these shores.
The Gregorian calendar was not intro
duced into Great Britain until 1851, ig
norance and prejudice defeating the
change up to that time. Consequently
it has been necessary to correct the dates
of our American anniversaries which
commemorate events previous to ISL

the "new style'' his birthday falls on the

On July IL, the Right Hon. Lord
Chief Justice Peter O'Brien opened the
Summer Assizes for the South Riding at
Clonmel, and in addressing the grand
jury said that but Tor one circumstance
only it would be his pleasing privilege
to address them in terms of unqualified
Generalization on the state Of the dis
trict, as he had to the grand jury OF the
North Riding. In the North Riding
there was practically no crime, boycott
ting or intimidation, and the necessity
for personal protection was reduced to a
minimum. In the South Riding he was
told by responsible authorities that there
was no boyc citing or intimidation, and
that great change for the better had
been wrought. There was only one
crime in the South Riding which he
could refer to with patience. He had to
refer to it in his own native county OF
Glare, and it distressed him very much
that ives the manning OF cattle. Some
COWS had been brutally mutilated in the
north Of che Riding, and the constabu-
larry authorities should put forward all
their energies to bring to justice miscre-
ants who are capable Of this atrocious
crime. In his Judgment, they were far
