Irish Superstitions.

Mr.. le Fanu, writing on Irish super
stitions, says: 'sThe SO called battles Of
the Derins (buryings) originated in the
superstition that the last person buried
has, in addition to his other troubles, to
allay the thirst Of all previously laid in
the churchyard. Where the water car
ried is procured I have never heard, but
as much is wanted, the atmosphere be-
ing very hot, the labor involved is in
cessant and the carrier not relieved till
the next funeral takes place. Peasants
have been known to put shoes or boots
into coffins to save the feet Of their rela-
tives on these weary water carrying
walks. Our neighbor, John Ryan, pro-
vided two pairs Of shoes in his wife's
oofin-a light pair for ordinary wear
and strong pair for bad weather."

There are certain tariff fanatics IN

n fresh outbreak at Amber Pa, where
q manufacturing company has given pub
lie notice that II will hereafter give pref

these people have got themselves into.
They are Hl working. tooth aud nail,
