IRELAND's GREATEST SAINT.

In the year 3s7. when Ireland was IN
known to civilization aud its people were
worshiping pagan images, there was
born to one OF its few holy men a son
destined to become an agent ot God in
the deliverance Of his people. When
but l6 years old the boy Ms sold il
slavery, where he lived six years, after
which he entered 4 monastery and be
came a priest. Among tho traditions
which have come down Of his life is that
one night he was visited BY 3 dream in
which a messenger appeared bearing
several letters, on 4 Of which was
written, THE Voice az the Irish" And
then he heard voices crying out Come,
oh, holy youth, we entreat You to walk
among u.s." The boy obeyed the sum
mons and devoted the remainder Of his
life to the holy cause Of bringing his
people from the darkness of Ignorance
to the light OF christianity.
st. Patrick was the pioneer mission
airy in the green island that has suffered
SO many vicissitudes. Biographers who
have written his life have, like othors of
their kind, relied largely upon tradition
and romantic lore to furnish the world
that which it asks. But there are
enough.remalning facts to prove his
fidelity to christianity, his untiring
labor il heather fields, apd the success
full elimination Of his life's work. That
he was a man Of striking personality is
evidenced by an anecdote which it is
said to bear authentic record. In bis
first visit, after leaving the monastery
he and a few Of his followers. were
stopped by a famous Irish chief and hiI
clan. The chief had lifted his weapon
to strike down the prophet when hi
himself was stricken by a look from the
young missionary. The weapon was hello
back, and the chief and all his family
became, converts to the cause Of religion
Before st. Patrick died, on March II, 4G5
Ireland was under a christian influence
and priests of the church of Rome were
to be found in every corner of the king
dom. But to him must be given tn,
honor of establishing on a lasting bash
the Roman Catholic religion in Ireland
The anniversary of his death has com
to be publicly remembered wherever
loyal Irishman is found. In the pass
ing throng of many a town to-day ma,
be seen bits of Shamrock or green rib:
bon. Tonight the cause of Irish free
dom will have new inspiration from tn
lips of many an orator Of that land o
orators. 1t is a good day and it is vel
to remember it. T."

HOMESTEAD Pa, Aug. 11.-William
A. Carney, member of the executive com
mittee of the American Federation of
Labor, came to Homestead this after
noon. To a United Press reporter he
announced that his mission here is to ar
range for the quarterly meeting of the
council, to be held here tomorrow, when
President Gompers of the American
Federation and representative of the
cigar makers union. Chris Evans,
of the united niue workers; John B..
Lemon, of the tsylors' and cutters
union; j. Mcclure, general secretary of
the brotherhood of carpenters, will be
present. The council has heretofore
met in New York While the usual
business will be transacted at the meet
ing, the object of calling the council to-
gether in this place is to consider the
Homestead strike. In discussing this
subject Mr.. Carney said: IA boycott
on Carnegie material is to be
considered, and in that are $4,000
carpenters, one hundred thousand per-
sons engaged in bridge building,
and operatives of ship-yards, where
armor plate is used We are willing tc
bring about any kind of an honorable
settlement, if it be possible, but if Messrs
Lovejoy and Frick and associates are de
termlned on manifestly nothing else bu
an aggressive disposition towards us
there is no alternative left us after hav
ing recourse to every other honorable
adjustment of the difficulty, but to NEE
them with their own weapons, feeling
confident that with The resources behinC
us we most assuredly will come out vic
torious"

has propounded some categorical ques-
tions to the treasury department in rela
ton to the financial policy of the past
and present administration, to which
acting secretary Ncttleton makes cate
gorical reply. Mr.. Brogden's first and
second question related to the amount of
the public debt purchased and redeemed
in two periods. Mr.. Nettleton presents
the following statements: Purchases and
redemptions of United States bonds from
March l, 1885, to March l, 18S9-'90,
principal 1888, O74, $50; cost 1851, 264, :

ing $32, ,s32, ,53s; from March 1889,

To Mr.. Brogden's third question, "Did
Cleveland or his secretary of the treas
ury let the banks have the use of the de-
posits of the public money belonging to
the government without interest ?''
Mr.. Mettleton replies that ''the
department has no authority to loan
public moneys with or without interest
and as matter of fact an interest has
been received for deposits made with
banks, but during the last adminsitra-
ton public deposits with national bank
depositaries were increased from the sur

$62, 600, 900, with deposits bore on in

Burgwyn, of Henderson. He called AT
tention to the fact that there was a law

King, of Onslow; chaplain, Rev. John
Almond, of Madison county; sergeant

very large majority of the delegates are
favorable to the third party, and, so far
as these delegates can commit the order,
it has been fully committed to the third
party and its principles Every indica-
ton points to the nomination of full
third party State ticket. The widest
theories of finance are talked of, and Dr.
Macune is doubtless the moving spirit in
securing the endorsement of the third
party by the convention. 1t appears that
the hour cannot be longer delayed when
the white men of the State must take a
stand in or out of the democratic ranks.
