ANOTHER Cur IN RATES TO CHICAGO
has been made by the Minneapolis & St.
Louis Railway, "Albert Lea Route TAX
ing effect August LIST. 1880 round trip,
and $500 one way from st. Paul or Min
neapolis.
Our patrons who have been waiting for
further reduction in rates before going
to the Worlds Fair, should not defer
longer but embrace the opportunity now
offered and visit the grandest exhibition
ever offered.
In making selection of route remember
the advantages offered by our landing
passengers at our Englewood Station
within~l 10 blocks Of the Fair Grounds.
The immense number of passengers who
have tested the superiority of this route
tell us that it is all that is claimed for it,
and more.
If the saving of time and the avoidance
of delay to baggage, and other inconven-
fences, are matters worthy of consider
alton, there can be no question as to
this being the most desirable route for
Worlds Fair Travel.
Two through trains with Free Chair
Cars and Pullman Sleepers, Dining Cars,
etc leave st. Paul and Minneapolis daily.

DUBLIN.

Lord Houghton arrived in Dublin on
July 10, after his tour to the West and
South Of Ireland. In right royal man
ner did the people Of all classes and con-
ditions receive him. The popular ele-
ts in Irish life were everywhere we'll
to the fore, though Toryism and official
ism sulked in the background, and re-
fused to recognize the youthful chief OF
the Executive. Lord Houghton is an able
and enlightened man who can think for
himself, and will not require his ideas to
be supplied by the bureaucrats of the
Castle. The native population welcomed
him everywhere with genuine enthusi-
asm, and he, knowing our nations his
tory and approaching tue recent course
of events, can realize the significance OF
their demonstrations.

MEATH.

How are the mighty fallen! During
the second week in the past month
of July, in London auction mart, Kill
leen Castle, Lord Fingall's historic prop
erty, was put up for sale. The Castle
is said to have been built by Hugh
Lacy, the companion in arms of Strong
bow in his invasion of Ireland, seven
hundred and twenty-five years ago.
With Dunsaney, Kllleen was considered
the most important castle Of the "Pale. :"
The sale took place in fairly crowded
room, at Tokenhouse Yard, London; but
the property was not only SUBJ
mitted as a whole, but IN variety Of
lots, there was not single offer to pur-
chase during the whole proceedings.

TIPPERARY.

At the last meeting OF the Nenagh
town commissioners, the following reso-
luton vas adopted, "That, considering
the long and cruel imprisonment to
which the Irish and Irish American
political prisoners have been subjected
and the great danger that exists of their
lives being sacrificed through the rigors
of prison punishment, as evinced by the
state of health of those who have been
released-one of whom (Harklns) has
since died, and Gilbert, discharged 10 q

felt as to the justice of their conviction,
we call upon our representatives in Par

cases, particularly that of John DAILY
WATERFORD.
On July 9th, Lord Houghton, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland, visited Waterford
and met with a very warm reception.
He was presented with an address from
the Chamber of Commerce, the M mbers
of the corporation, aud the board of
guardians, to each Of which he replied.
Subsequently, he visited the Cathedral,
and was met and welcomed by the
Bishop. In the afternoon he visited the
Christian Brothers schools, the Convent,
and other public institutions.
WEXFORD.
We record, with much regret, the
death of Mr.. Patrick Ryan, of Enniscor-
thy, who on July 9th passed away after
brief illness at the fine old age of 70
years. Mr.. Ryan W native of Ba||y
valoo, whence he went to Enniscorthy,
at an early age, as ali apprentice to the
hardware trade, in ;.hich he not alone
achieved thorough success, but his bust
ness capacity enabled him to speculate
both in the mailing and wooden trades
and also in agriculture, which he oper-
ated to considerable extent. In Ma
tional politics Mr.. Ryan was promin-
emit figure; and the people of Enniscor-
thy gave evidence of the feeling which
the announcement of his death created
by the closely suffered shops observ-
able everywhere on the day Of his fune-
raj. His remains we're inferred IN the
Cathedral cemetery. Prior to the in
torment requiem Office was celebrated in
the church, the celebrant being the Rev.
E. Rossiter, G. G.. The funeral cortege
was one of the largest and most repre-
sentative seen in the district for O. con-
siderable time, including as it did per-
sons from all localities in the county.

XII KENNY.

On July 18th, seven cows, the property
of Mr.. Sparrow, Kilmanagh, were killed
by lightning while grazing in d field.
The day had been unusually sultry,
with heavy clouds overhead; and in the
afternoon a violent thunder storm, pre-
coded by lightning, took place, during
which the cattle We're struck and killed.
On the same day an unknown man was
killed by lightning on the road outside
the town of Ballyragget. He was, ap-
parently, about sixty years of age, but
had nothing about him by which he
could be identified.

LIMERICK.

Mr.. G. Bull, 81 Suffolk street, Dublin,
has at present on view at his establish
ment some paintings framed in oak, part
of series of the Stations of the Cross
which he is executing for the Very Rev.
DR., Meehan, 2. p, and which will form
a striking and effective feature of the
new church at Kilmallock. The paint
ings, as works of art, are deserving of
high praise. In place of canvas or a
panel of wood, the material employed is
a sheet of prepared brass; the picture is
euameiled on this, and the baking of
the enamel gives the coelors BEAUTIFULLY
soft tone and mellowness, which time
alone brings to oil paintings on canvas.
The frames which enclo the Stations
are designed by Mr.. G. c. Ashlin, the
architect of the church. They are of
massive and richly carved oak, stand 6
feet inches high, and are of design
which harmonizes with the architecture
of the church.

KERRY.

A fatal shooting accident occurred at
the Rife Range, Ballydunlea, Tralee, on
July 9Th. The Kerry militia were at the
range, practicing ball-6ring, and during
an interval while the men were cleaning
their guns report was heard, and man
in the front rank named Edward Siger-
son was seen to throw up his hands and
fall. He was taken up Immediately, and
was found to have been shot through
the heart. A man named Philip Cronin,
gave himself up to Color sergeant Hickie
as the man who had fired the shot which
struck Sigerson. 1t appeared that after
having fred fourteen rounds the mon
proceeded to clean their guns. Cronin
vino was in the second rank, took his
gun by the stock. His finger touched
the trigger, and i; went off; the bullet
passed through S1gerson's heart, and
came out through his side. A curious
fact in connection with the sad occur
renee is that Cronin had but four; een
rounds, and had registered them all oa
the target, SO that the other charge in his
rifle is unaccoun table. He had left the
rifle on the ground, and lad gone about
thirty yards, and when he returned
picked it up, and the charge went off, as
described. Slgerson was a native of Ca
hirciyeen, and unmarried.

Fusion, which the 'Citizens ticket so
called, only is. They may call their party
what they will, it is the same conglomera-
ton that held sway last winter at Topek a.
Just note who is working for it. That
settles it. OF course we viii have the po-
lice force against US, including the COM
missioners and city marshal, which means
that certain element will be voted for
the Fusion ticket, solid. and in spite o +
everything. And of course the new Off
GERS, elected by the Fusionists last fall
will also be against US. But all combined
only constitute minority. when com
pared to that large element of conservative
citizens who have no use for either Doodle
or calamity. The people of this city who
have no use for Fusion, Its plots and
schemes, and who despise the cry Of Ca
lamity which has stopped all immigration
to this state, are in the majority by at
least thousand votes. as election day viii
prove.

his wife and reputable witness whom
the EAGLE reporter took along for that
purpose, that he did not know Of any
charge being against him, that ne gave no
bond and was asked TO give none. He even
had the effrontery to say that he never

himself testifying on the stand that he
was arrested and after the reporter seeing
him behind the bars in the city Jail on the
night of the shooting. If the metropoli-
tan police have not the ability to get up
story that would hang together any better
than this, they have not the ability to be
policemen or to deal with the diplomacy
of slick criminals.
Now, then, Judge Babb of the police
court is a good Demo-Populist. and it
might be well to examine him and see II
he is an Anarchist and a Communist, ac-
cording to the Beecon's standard. Ii it is

By the way, Officer Scully shot negro
in the heel the night before Spidle was
killed. He was out on the same mission
i. e., to arrest coal thieves The negro in
question was brought to the city building
and locked upin Jail. Up to this time
Scully did not know that he had shot the
negro IN the heel. although the negro said
SO two or three times. At last the wound
got so sore that the negro groaned with
pain and one OF the policemen at the sta
ton said "mgybe the id niger is shot:
let US go and see." They did SO and found
that the negro had bullet in him. That
negro was arrested on charge of stealing

there ever charge brought against him?
If stealing coal is such crime as the
Beacon says it is. why is he running at

police knowing where he is. The whole
thing is sickening. 1t is putrid, rotten
