To the Editor of The Irish Standard.
/ am stranger lately come to your
city and see by your last issue that you
have to some extent got the above by
brid in your population. You give a
Welshman's opinion of this self import
ant mongrel, aud with your permission l
will give another opinion by an Irish
Protestant editor in Massachusetts OF
the blatant Orangemen of Ulster:
| "He is a ranting, roaring, noisy blather-
| skite; with just enough Scotch in him to
be devoid of humor; just enough Irish in
him to be pugnacioas; just enough reii-
gion in him to be a bigot; and just
enough reverence in him to bow down to
lord aud insult God Almighty. He is
case of perverted intelligence; an illus
tration of what misdirected skill In the
hands of generations of knaves can pro-
duce by covering ignorance with rell'
gious coat of paint. The Orangeman is
rara avis; an Irishman who hates Ire
land; a slave who loves his chains and
stripes; Christian who despises the
teaching of Christ; patriot who clamors
for bad laws for his county, and who
glories in the oppression of his fellow
countrymen and the humiliation Of his
motherland." know him and his meth
dds. He attends the church paradss
with religious punctuallty, and to all
outside appearances is a walking exam
ample of the teachings of the Divine
Master, but let the veil be lifted and see
the inner man and it will be found that
there is as much Christianity about him
as there is about Hindoo. He is now
shouting out his "loyalty" in Ulster for
the "crown and country" and backing up
the falling fabric of landlordism by the
threat of civil war, should Home Rule
become the law of the land. This is his
usual way of ranting. He was to have
kicked the crown into the Boyne if the
Queen signed the Irish church bill. Her
Majesty signed that bill and the crown
still remains ON her head. So will it be
when she signs the Home Rule bill, (which
she will do at the request of Gladstone.
The threat of the Orangeman is like pig
shavipe-more noise than wool.

WORLDS COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION, CHI
cAGo. March 30, 1893-To the Public:
Because of many Misrepresentation and
misstatements relative to Exposition
management and affairs being in circu-
lation through the press and otherwise,
both in this country and abroad, and ia
reply to many letters OF inquiry or COM
plaint touching the Same matters, it
seems advisably that some ofhcial state
ment regarding them should be made to
the public Therefore I respectfully ask
that tho widest put licity be given to the
FOLLOWING facte:
l. The Exposition will be opened in
readiness for visitors May l.
2. An abundance of drinking water the
best supplied of any great city in the
world, will be provided free to all The
report that charge would be made for
drinking water probably arose from the
fact that hy9eia water can also be had
by those who may desire it at one cent
glass.
3. Ample provisions for seating will be
made without charge.
4. About 1900 toilet rooms and closets
will be located at convenient points in
the buildings and about the grounds,
and they will be absolutely free to the.
public. This is as large g number In
proportion to the estimated attendance
as has ever been provided in any exposi-
ton In additi N to these there will
also be nearly an equal number OF lava
tories and toilet rooms of a costly and
handsome character as exhibits, for the
use of which charge of five cents will
be made.
s. The admission fee of so cents will
entitle the visitor to SEQ and enter all
the Exposition buildings, inspect the e1-
hibits, and, In short, to see everything
within the exposition grounds, except
the Esquimaux Village and the reproduc-
tion of the Colorado cliff dwellings. For
these as we'll as for the special attrac-
tions on Midway Plaisance small fee
will be charged.
6. Imposition or extortion of any d.
scription will not be tolerated.
Z. Free medical and emergency hospi-
tai service is provided on the grounds by
the Exposition management.
8. The Bureau OF Public Comfort will
provide commodious free waiting rooms,
including spaci us ladies' parlor and
toilet rooms in various parts of the
grounfs. -:..

with that earnestness for which he is

the stranger silently handed him the um

A CLEVER CORKONIAN.

AS a Lawyer and Doctor He is Making His
Mark il New York
Dr.. O'Sullivan, the medico-legal expert
who is attracting attention by his CROSS
examination of the experts of the prose-
cution in the Buchanan murder trial,
was born in Cork, Ireland, thirty two
years ago. He is of medium height,
built like an athlete, and in fact is one.
His hair is very light in color.
He has equipped himself in an unusual
manner for the line of practice in which
he has suddenly become we'll known.
He was graduated from the University of
Edinburgh in 1873 with the degree Of B.
A. and then went to London to study
veterinary medicine. These studies he
pursued in the University of London, be-
coming F. B. @. V. s. in 1881. At that
time he became veterinary in the Four
teenth Hussars. But the desire for
study and scientific investigation was
strong, and he gave up his commission to
come to America, where he believed he
could earn enough by the practice of
medicine to continue his studies in some
college. He was right in his surmise, for
he earned enough in medical work in
Hartford to support him while he at
tended Yale. There. in 1887, he got the
degree of M. D., and in 1890 that of
l. L. B.
AT Edinburgh he had won the prize
medal in chemistry, and at London the
prize medals in anatomy and physiology
cat YALE" said Mr.. O'Sullivan to a
Sun reporter, II won the medal I am
most proud of; it is the gold medal for
fencing"
After leaving Hartford he went to Bos-
ton where he was made State Veterinarian
and, backed in the efforts by the State
Board of Agriculture, he began cru

aroused the medical fraternity, and fin

the danger from diseased milk, and the
effect of his work in that respect OK
tended beyond the limits of the State.
aMy success in that direction pleased
me-" he said, "becauee it helped to teach
American farmers the value OF scientific
knowledge regarding their live stock.

teemed inthis country as it is in Europe.

Mr.. O'Sullivan has the kind of mind
which receives knowledge quickly and
with no apparent effort. A man who
knew him at Yale said of him: "O'Sulli-

SENDING VALENTINES.
Post Office People Tell of the Increase in
Mail Matter.


Mail Matter.
st. Valentine, according to the officials of the
city post Office. is responsible for 10 per cent
increase in the amount of mail handled at the
Office today, and the charge that the
tender passion as expressed in the use
Of valentines to convey the messages
of the little god Of love is becoming story of
tho past or passing into innocuous desuetude
is negatived by this statement of the
post Office people. And the post office
officials also say that this increase is
not alone feature of this year. but that it is
an increase which regularly marks every years
work of the Office. There is one peculiar fea-
ture, however. in the matter. and that is that
it is the children who now send and re-
ceive the great majority of valen-
tines passing through the mails of late years.
One Of the carriers of the office stated to a STAR
reporter today that he had delivered today ten
missives which be knew to be valentines, and in
every case they We addressed to what he knew to
be children. Asin past years there is still no set
tied rule or fashion to the size or shape of the
valentines, although each year they grow more
elegant and attractive in makeup. The use of
the comic ones, however, appears to be growing
less every year. their use being confined almost
exclusively to children.

THE GARBAGE CONTRACT.

Maj. Ferguson Presents . Power Of Attorney
From Contractor Clark.
As stated exclusively in The STAR several
days ago Contractor Clark has tired of his gar
bage contract and has asked to be released.
Today Maj. Ferguson, president OF the
National Sanitary Company Of Baltimore,
called upon the Commissioners and had a
hearing relation to taking charge Of the col
lection of garbage himself. He exhibited his
power of attorney from Mr.. Clark author
izing him to collect all MONEYS hereafter
due on the contract. and said he based his
authority for collecting the garbage on that
document. The Commissioners stated that
they had no objection to the National Sanitary
Company acting as the agents for Mr. Clark.
They. however, knew no other person in the
matter and would hold Mr.. Clark and his
bondsmen liable for the strict performance
Of the contract. Maj. Ferguson said that he
had scheme which he thought would solve the
great problem OF garbage collection. 1t was
his purpose to construct a number Of air-tight
push carts and have men make trips through
all alleys and deposit their loads
as fast rs they were made at some central point
where the steel-covered carts would remove it
TO the factory, where ii would be incinerated
IL this scheme did not prove satisfactory he
had several others in view, but proposed to give
the push cart idea thorough test. 1t was his
intention to begin work tomorrow.
