of the bank gave us tickets Of admis-
sion to see the operation of printing
the bank notes. There was nothing
extraordinary about it.
Immediately opposite the bank
is Trinity College, from which
many man has emerged with
50 great an education as to be
untitled for any useful pursuit.
In the museum is the harp Of
Brian Boru, and the charter horn of
King O'Kavanagh. Dennis Hogan,
of Kane County, ILL.,, wrote COM
mentary in the visitors book, when
he was here, that these were the
finest things belonging to Brian and
the King he had ever seen. The
college authorities felt so highly
complimented that the commentary
still remains in the book unerased.
1t would make the applicants for
the Chicago Collectorship green with
envy to see the Dublin Custom House,
which is, externally considered, the
finest building in the city. 1t was
erected at an expense Of 50, 800, 600,
and occupied ten years in building.
Over the portico, which is composed
Of Doric columns, are colossal statues
of Navigation, Wealth, Commerce
and Industry. On the tympanum is
a sculpture representing the union
of England and Ireland. On
the north side of the building
is pOrtico, nearly similar, with
figures of Europe, Asia, Africa, and
America. The whole building is
surmounted by dome, on which is a
colossal statue of Hope. Seen from
every side. the Custom House is a
very beautiful building, and if Mike
Bailey could only see it, he would
throw up his custodianship, and with
his usual luck in such matters get
the job of looking after the Dublin
Custom House Nelson's monument,
in Sackyille street, is beautiful shaft,

like Finley Peter Dunno, OF the

While Its Operating Expenses
Have Increased Over
S2,000,000,

Figures contained in the report of
the Chicago & Northwestern Road
for the year ending May 81 show
decrease in net earnings of 1910, 600,
an increase In operating expenses Of
nearly 81, 900, 600, and decrease in

The notorious mismanagement of
the Passenger Department Of the

bearing its legitimate fruit,
People won't travel by that rold

Travellers are through with being
insulted by its extra-oflicious aud ex-

The net earnings of the North
western decreased during the year
ending May 81 over 500, ,0O0
Think of that!
This was before the hard times
commenced, and the de rease was
due to nothing more or less than bad
management.
Since May 81 the losses Of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Railroad
Company have more than doubled.
Barring the suburban service,
patronized by people who are obliged
to stick to It's uncomfortable ears,
no one who knows anything travels

Complaints are useless.
The management Of the passenger
department under Thrall is one long
ecord Of mistakes and insu Is.
One of the most prominent busi-
ness men in Chicago went into the
Passenger Department on Fifth
avenue, the other day to see Thrall.
OF course, Thrall was out.
But the white-haired rat and the
rest of the fellows kept there for in,

Lynch, Jr.,
And Has Some Tips from
PhenK Park for Char

DUBLIN, Aug. !

Well, we have arrived at last, and,
barring the constant sea-sickness OF
Tom Byrne, the voyage was almost
as devoid of interest as Allerton S
campaign was of results. Dublin is
quite a handsome city of almost 400,-
900 inhabitants, and from our hotel,
the Shelborne, which fronts st.
Stephens Green, we have grand
view of the swells on parade. All the
officials here are talking about the
Worlds Fair, and Lord Mayor Shank
and the members Of the corporation
are looking forward with pleasure to
their approaching trip to Chicago.
They will be in our world-renowned
city Sept. 2l without fail. Every
body here remembers Mayor Harri-
son, who paid Dublin visit dozen
years ago, and electrified the nabobs
by his eloQuence as well as captured
the people by his wit and g0Od-humOr.
| rather think that the Dublin
-Four Courts lays over our court
house, as it is a magnificent struc-
ture. The four courts of Chancery,
the ExcheQuer, Common Pleas and
the Courts of the Queens Bench are
held there, hence the name. The
slast mentioned tribunal is presided
over by mild-looking person who
resembles our mutual friend Judge
Scales more than anything l have
ever seen. Judge Goggin has a dig
nihed counterpart in the Chief JUS
tice of the Chancery division, which
coincidence struck me as peculiar.
Charlie Clarke, the genial Lincoln
Park Commissioner, asked me before
| left Chicago to be sure and take in
Phoenix Park, so that there would
not be any danger of his missing any
tips | might pick up for him. So l
took in the Phoenix, which the natives
here think superior to anything in
the world, The portion open to the
public is 1900 acres in extent, and
contains many magnificent carriage
drives, but no diversity Of scenery,
beautiful lakes, walks, flowers and
fountains, such as you see in Chicago.
Park Commissioner Martin J. Rus
sell would have a fit ii the South
Park landscaper initiated any of the
decorations here The chief object
of interest in the park is the well
ington testimonial, big stone af-
fair 200 feet high, which looks like
a section OF Potter Palmer's house in
need of repairs The vice regal
lodge of the Lord Lieutenant is situ-
ated ia the park, and when | saw his
turnout, with fOotmen in white liy-

R0BBiH0 THE PEOPLE.

The people should read the de-
cisions Of the Supreme Court, and
then see how much right the Pres
byterian Theological Seminary has TO
escape taxation on $50 residences and
fifteen acres Of land on Fullerton,
Belden and Sheffield avenues.
Land belonging to an institution Of
learning upon ,chich b,dldings or inStitlt-
tons are not located, and phich is not used
EXCLUSIVELY By the corporation, is sub
iect to taTdtion,"
The words quoted were used by the
Supreme Court Of Illinois, in the
matter of this same Presbyterian
Theological Seminary, which always
tried to get out of paying its Just
dues, and can I've found on page $50
of Volume CT. of Freeman's Illinois
Supreme Court Reports.
The County Collector a Cook
County sued this same Theological
Seminary of the Northwest, in 1880,
for taxes. There were then no resi-
dences on this fifteen acres OF land,
yet the Supreme Court decided that
they must pay taxes.
In the face of this decision Of the
highest court in the State, the off,
cials of Cook County have connived
with sundry parties to keep this as
sessment off of the tax books, even
after the North 1o,cn Assessor has assessed
them.
How is that for fraud2
Talk about anarchists defying the
law. Did they ever do anything like
this?
The people should Use up and wipe
out this injustice at the polls.
If the fault is in the County Court
strike it there.
If the fault is in the County Clerks
Office, strike it there.
But strike it anywhere.
The law and the Supreme Court
have each been dehed long enough.
Religious crooks are no better than
any other crooks.
Here is an extract from the Ameri-
can Encyclopedia of Law, volume 4,
quoting the consensus of the opinions
of the Supreme Courts of twenty
eight States on this subject:
"An exemption of the property OF
religious, charitable and educational
institutions will be construed to ex-
tend only to the property actually used
for religious, charitable and educational
purposes, and not TO other property held
by ii as source Of rerenue, on capable o.
being applied TO such use"
If that is not strong enough law tC
protect the people in their rights
what is?
And yet the Presbyterian Theologi
cal Seminary pays no taxes on fifteen
acres Of residence property, each
house on which rents from $50 To
5000 per month.
Why is this fraud permitted to

PRODUCE MARKETS.
Quotations from New York, Cincln-

The markets open with a somewhat more
confident feeling among merchants than
characterized the opening last Monday
The financial condition of the country is
ON slightly firmer basis and business is
quick to feel the renewed energy flowing
from such a state of affairs. The local
markets show no change of moment. Fruit
and vegetables fluctuate with the day at
this season much that 1t is impossible
to undertake to keep pace with the differ
ent movements. Today there Is a brisk
trade with slight increase in the price OF
some fruits and reductions i'm the price of
others Groceries are firm but quiet. There
are no increases. Sugars are unusually
firm for this season, but the irmness is
caused by the large demand for canning
and preserving purposes. Other groceries
quiet, but steady. Poultry trade is
weak TIE broilers brought in are not up

rules weak The dry goods market remains
as II closed last week. Provisions are not
changed, though there are indications of a
weakening in the market, owing to large
increase i'm hogs and hog products. Trade
