KERRY.

A row Of serious character occurred
between the hours of and 10 o'clock on
Thursday evening, June 9Th, a short dis
lance outside the village of Causeway
on the road to Ardtelt. A man named
Ryle was proceeding homewards, in com.
pany with some other men, in cart
when they we're oyertaken by party,
one of whom offered to fight Ryle. The
dispute eventually came to blows; and
after it had partly subsidized, Ryle and
the others proceeded On their way. They
were soon ovsrtaken by their former as
sailants, and the fight was renewed near
Ballinorig. In the course Of the encoun-
ter Ryle cried out that he was stabbed,
at the same time calling for help. A
young man named Mahoney, from the
neighborbood came, to Ryle's assistance,
and it is alleged that he, too, got stabbed
in the head and leg. The police arrived
in time to arrest the other participants in
the row before they could leave the road.
The prisoners were conveyed to the police
barracks, where, later on, they were form
ally arraigned before DIR. W. A. O'Connor
and Mr. j.. Hamilton, J. P's., and bail
being accepted for them they were re-
manded to Petty Sessions The wounds
inflicted on either of the men. are not
considered dangerous.
KILDARE.
On June Sd fowldealer named Mar
tin Byrnes, when proceeding from his
residence at Kildare to the Athy market,
was beaten and robbed by two tramps.
As Byrnes was driving along lonesome
part of the road to sWaterford, three
miles from Kildare, he observed the
tramps getting from under the shelter of
bush near the road. One of them
asked for match, the other stood at the
horses head, and while Byrnes was
searching his pocket he was grasped by
the neck, pulled off his cart, beaten Sc
verely, and robbed of nine pounds fifteen
shillings. Byrnes after little time re-
covered somewhat and drove into Kill
dare and reported the outrage to the
police, who, as usual, have not arrested
the cramps"
KILKENNY.
On June 7th, the annual meeting of
the Protestant Orphan Society in Kill
kenny was availed of by a clergyman
Canon Wills), from Limerick, who de-
scribed himself as Samuel the Prophet"
to pronounce his hostile opinions upon
the chances Of the Home Rule bill.
The Canon having expressed on all his
hearers the glories OF charitable spirit,
convinced them of the sincerity Of his
remarks by picturing with delight Mr..
Gladstone as affected with political
lunacy tottering to the grave, fostering

GALWAY.

On June 7th deputation of the citi-
zens of Galway waited on Lord Wolse-
ley, to ask him to urge on the Govern
ment to establish military station in
that town. The deputation was intro
duced by Colonel O'Hara, chairman of
the town and harbor commissioners.
Lord Wolseley, in reply, said that be-
fore it could be considered desirable to
send troops to Galway it would be nec-
essary for the people to come forward
and provide them with barracks. II
they could expend sixty OF one hundred
Thousand pounds in building them the
authorities might consider the proposal
to send soldiers to Galway.

Seattle Telegraph.

When nearly a year ago the Tele-
graph sent out warning that the
State Worlds Fair Commission was
going along at rate which would
bankrupt it, scarcely the least atten-
tion was paid to it, except by some
papers, which found fault with us for
opposing, as they claimed, a work so
much in the interest of the State.
After time the commission took up
the matter and made a sort of half de-
fence. We insisted that greater
economy should be practiced and,
while admitting that good work was
being done, claimed that it was cost.
ing altogether too much. A commit
tee was appointed by the Legislature to
look into the affairs OF the Commission
and the result of its enquiry was re-
port that no one had been guilty of
larceny. That is not the way in
which the report read, but it did not
amount to anything more than that.
The Legislature granted $4,000 more
and the commission told the public
that they could get through all right.
The Telegraph said that they could
not, but that on the contrary they
would find even this was not enough.
And so it has proved. The Commits
sion is not yet bankrupt, but if Mr..
Percy Rochester knows what he is
talking about it will be so by July / if
it has to pay its bills.
Well, the thing must not bs allowed
to collapse for want of funds. The
first thing to be done is to cut down
current expenses. 1t is taking $2,515
Il month to pay the salary of the
Commissioners and the Superintend-
ents, besides several hundred dollars
for labor. A large saving can be made
here. Here is list Of the regular en-
ployes as published in the P.-I:

Jest as well try to saw through a
stick OF taffy candy as this kind of
tree" exclaimed the waiting logger.
" He's gone for the water can and
we'll see if We can get through this
vein"
Jim came back presently, carrying
a leaky oil can heavy with water. A
wedge was driven into the tree we'll
above the saw, and the can hung upon
the wedge so that the water leaked
down upon the saw as it worked in
and out.
What good does it dor" / asked
incredulously.
Don't know" returned Jim, labor
ing at the saw, "but it makes awful
easy saving"
"Sort O freezes the PITCH" said the
other philosophically.
AS matter OF fact the saw did
move more freely, drawing in a little
cold water each time, and the frozen
pitch mixed with water frothed out
in white foam. After a long time of
heavy saving, the teeth began to
catch more firmly, and few more
moments work brought the saw very
near to the under-cut.
No message OF its coming fall has
reached the far top, now that the body
of the tree is nearly severed; the
branches stir less than at the first
blows OF the axe. The fir stands
beautifully erect. The loggers squint
up its length, and gay oracularly
which way it will fall; they move the
axes and water can out OF harms wav,
and spring back to their perches. We
stand on a fallen tree few yards be-
hind the loggers and wait expectantly.
There is an irresistible sense of excite
ment; even these men to whom it is
such an old story feel it. Who can
say what sudden wind will snatch the
tree and throw it suddenly backward
upon us? The brooding silence of the
forest is absolute, save for the steady
crate OF the saw in and out, like stem
torous breathing. Erect and motion
less the tree waits.
The men nod TO each other; the
saving ceases; one handle is slipped
Oft and the saw drawn all the wav
through and laid back of the tree !;
one man springs down and lifts his
perch out, and hands a great mallet
to the other, who still stands upon his
springboard. The mallet is lifted, and
loud, sonorous chant rings through
the stiffness: "All clear ahead! Tim.
Der" Then the mallet falls. once,
twice, thrice, upon the heads of the
wedges. There is a slight creaking,
the logger filings his mallet aside and
rushes backward, the cleft widens, the
great green head stirs; then with a
rushing, laundering roar, mingled
with the sound of the rendering fibers
of the trunk, the giant tears its
mighty arc through the air; a cloud
OF blackness envelops the fall; the air
is dark with dust and moss and flyinp
fragments. The roar is superb as the
tree crashes it way through the under.
brush, louder than cannon, but with
no harshness; more like some mighty
breaker that has come ten thousand
miles OF sea to beat its heart out on a
lonely shore.

Destroyed by Fire and Again at
Work.

The Price Baking Powder Company
of Chicago, which is known through.
out the country for the superior ex.
cellence of its baking powder, met
with serious loss on the morning OF
May 18th, in the nearly total destruc.
ton by fire of its factory and Offices.
No sooner had the flames been sub.
dued than the work OF restoration
commenced, and the company by pru.
dent foresight, having had stored in
outside warehouses duplicate machin.
cry, labels and supplies of raw mater
ials in preparation for any emergency,
was enabled by energetic management
to resume manufacturing within a
very few days after the fire, thereby
causing its customers but trifling de.
lay in the filling OF their orders. Had
the company not been so prepared the
delay would have been very serious,
since it would have required months
OF time to get new machinery.

1t would be interesting to know
what these people do for their money.
Five of them are members of the
commission. What do they do? The
others are in charge of the several de-
partments. What do they do? Is
there any valid reason why either the
commissioners, except, perhaps, the
president, should not come home or
that the departmental chiefs should
not be dismissed and the commits
sioners discharge their duties? Mr..
Meany is getting $3.50 a month as
press agent. What is he doing to earn
it? Mrs. Slaughter has 500 as super
intendent of the art department.
What is there about Washington art
that it is necessary to have anybody
especially in charge of its exhibit?
What does the State agent do that he
should get $50 q month"; The title
and salary suggest sinecure. Why
does the commission need salaried
stenographer when they could hire
some one in Chicago for trivial sum
to attend to all the correspondence?
Why cannot our exhibit of stuffed
skins be trusted to make a showing
for itself without gentleman at 500
month to take charge of it? Why
do we need three men to represent the
agricultural section, two to take
charge of the forestry and two the
minerals?
The thing is farce. The five COM
misssioners ought to be able to give
all the superintendent requisite,
that is, if the five OF them must stay
there. Probably the fact is that two
men with two or three good assistants
could attend to everything that is
necessary. The first thing to be done
is to apply the pruning knife.
When that has been done and an
estimate has been made of what it
will cost to see the thing through and
replenish the exhibit with fruits, and
grain and grasses, the money should
be forthcoming. We suggest that the
emergency board has the power to
make an appropriation and ought to
do so in order that the excellent im-
preston produced by the State exhibit
may be strengthened, but not a single
dollar should be given to be expended
in useless salaries.
EVAN Davis and another miner,
named McTarnahan, recently located
some claims near Pierce City and
camped there. A few days ago they
were visited by two men, Wilson and
Wheeler, who informed them that
were trespassers and must get out.
Davis reports that there was no quar-
rel at all between the parties, but that
they agreed to move off the claims.
The next day Davis and another man
left McTarnahan III camp and went
out alone for a trip up the gulch
When they returned McTurrahan was
not in the tent, and they found him
about Isl yards back OF the camp
dead. His rifle WAS near him and hi-
body was pierced hy hall dozen dli-
ferent bullets. \ hat and another
rifle was found further l,wn the gu.ch.
but further than that they knew
nothing. Wilson and Wheeler were
arrested and had Il preliminary trial.
but no evidence WAS produced against
them.

SALT AND WATER,
A Young Man Pays Dearly for His
Ignorance Of the Latin Tongue.

A little knowledge is more often a
useful than dangerous thing, and a
young man who knows "small Latin
and less Greek" discovered the fact
not long ago. The Saturday Gazette
tells the story;
A young Boston man had slight
cold and sore throat, and meeting his
cousin, who is physician and some
thing of wag, he asked him what to
do for it.
"Oh, I'll write prescription for
yOu," was the answer. He wrote it,
and the gentleman glanced at it be-
fore taking it to the druggist. 1t read
Aqua pura-ounce; chloride sodium
ounce. Shake we'll before using,
and gargle with it every half hour"
"How much is it?" queried the pa
tient, as the druggist handed him the
bottle.
1.-TWO dollars" was the reply.
Some weeks later the young mans
throat was sore again, and remember
ing the efficacy of his cousins pre-
scription, he took the bottle to be filled
again.
Another clerk waited on him, and
when he inquired the price he was as
tonished at the cheerful answer: rOh,
we don't charge anything for salt and
water"
He had paid two dollars for an
understanding OF two simple words.
THE passengers and crew of the
steamer Edith, on Puget Sound, saw a
sea serpent the other day. Only its
head and neck were in sight, so that
its length could not be estimated. Its
head was like that of an immense
snake, and was about the size of a
mans body; the neck was of equal
size. When first seen, it had about
five feet OF its anatomy in sight. 1t
was motlonless, except that it was
turning its head from side to side and
opening and closing its immense
mouth. As the steamer drew quite
close to it, it sank out of sight for n
moment and came up on the other
side OF the boat. 1t swan along with
the boat for several minutes, and then
turning suddenly started in the oppo.
site direction at great rate of speed.
1t churned the water into foam with
its tail, and continued to do so
until 1t passed out of sight in the d.
rection of WILDLY Island.

Adjournment Taken out OF Respect to tho
Memory of tho Great Dead.
WASHINGTON, D. O., Jan. q. Tho an.
nouncement OF Mr., Blaine's death was

the intelligence Of Mr.. Blaine's death,
an hour before noon, naturally cast over
the body and the capital. Tho sad
event was appropriately noted in tho
opening prayer Of Chaplain Butler.
