In the bankrupt court, Dublin, on May
2Sth, the case Of Henry Lowergan was
called. The bankrupt was a draper in
Clonmel. He was examined as to his
affairs, and it appears that in 1885, he re-
ceived $1,000 on the death of a relative,
and he subsequently bought a property in
the county of Waterford; for which he
paid f450, and on which ne expended
e, 900. He deposited title deeds with the
Bank of Ireland as security for a. debt of
ESQ; and these were afterwards taken out
of the bank and handed over to another
creditor as. security for his claim. The
bankrupt also owed q consid sum to
Messrs. PIN Bros. & Co. He had none of
the E7 900 now. The case was adjourned
for further investigation Of the accounts:

at Garrahas, near Tramore, on May 26th.
On that day farmer named James Rock
EFT went shooting rocks, a, recreation in
which he had often previously INDUCED.
Shortly afterwards his dead body was dis
covered contiguous to the house, the top
Of his head being almost completely sew
cred. The corps was bathed in u, blood,
and the spectacle presented was horrible
in the extreme. He leaves a large fam
lily. The unfortunate man was rather Pc
culiar in his habits for some time past.

The salmon fishing, this season, on the
Slaney, especially on the lower reaches
of the river, has not been SO productive as
late seasons, though the fish have COM
nanded good price. Recently some
very good takes have been made at Fer

getting II fsh in one haul, and seven In
another, the same day. AZ few days later
Lambert cot had the good luck TO take

ing one Of IL and other OF nine. The sal
mon were all fairly large fish, in good con-
dition ranging from about II pounds up
wards The prices quoted in the Dublin
markets were from Is. to is. Sd. per pound.
At Killurin drafts the fishing was on the
whole better than farther down the river.
The total a1pount sent BY rail to Dublin, u

DR.. Moran, Bishop Of Dunedin, Otago. The
deceased prelate had been ailing for over
two years, but the late exchanges seemed
to indicate that his health was improving.
The sad news put an end to the hopes that
were entertained of his recovery. BY his
death the church In lSew Zealand loses a
Enthusiastically Jealous Irish prelate: He
was devoted heart and soul to the work OF
church Organization, and was. one OF the
staunchest upholders in the colony OF the
Catholic cause in education. Every ef-
fort. Of the Irishmen of New Zealand to
assist the Irish National cause also had his
aeartiest suppordt and sympathy. Dr.
Moran was born near the Vale of Ovoca,
73 years ago, and was an alumnus OF ST.
Peters College, Wexford, and ordained IN
1916, SO that the present was his golden
Jubilee year. He was consecrated bishop
with the title of Dundano, on the 18Th OF
February, 1856. For nearly Ia years he
administered theidiocese; of GrahamstoWn,
South Africa. He was transferred to
Dunedin, on December Sd, 1863, being
succeeded in Grahamstown by dlstlng-
uished Wexfor oman, Most Rev. Dr. Ri
cards, who was called to his reward alittle
more than year ago. Thus for nearly 40
years ne filled the arduous Office OF bishop
in those new Catholic countries to which
the expansion of civilization and the
spread of the Irish people have given rise
in distant lands. His loss will be deeply
felt, especially by those exiles with which
he SO heartily sympathized, and over
whose fortunes he watched with a solici-
tude really pateTnal.

WOMEN RUNG THE FARES
Society Lights Of Bay City, Mich,
Couductresses for a Day.
Railroads Give Part of the Receipts to the
women's Masonic Temple Association
Male Patrons Made to Come
Down Handsomely.

The new woman in all her glory ex-
cepting the boomers had possession OF
all the best streets of Bay City,
Mich, one day recently. In other
words she ran the motor cars
and everybody had to keep out of the
way or ride, and the unfortunates who
rode without a nickel in their pockets
and were compelled to give up any
where from a quarter to a whole dollar
are glad the women don't run the cars
every day.
For several days it had been an
nounced that the Womeu's Masonic
Temple association would have. charge
of the cars for one day and would re-
ceive portion of the receipts. Early
in the morning a "conductress" was on
hand to operate every car.
The ladies who collected fares during
the day were the wives and daughters
of the leading men of the city, who are
prominent in masonic affairs, and the
way dollars flowed into their treasury
and incidentally into that of the street
car company makes the latter wish the
"conductress" were an everyday affair.
In many cases 1t was a regular hold
up. 1--WE don't make change to-day"
was the invariable answer when any.
one objected to paying several times a
single fare and it was indeed hard
ened villain who could still object to
being relieved of his coin.
OF course, when once in awhile some
old codger who couldn't see the joke Of
the thing insisted on getting the exact
change back he got it, but It always
took the ladies so long to find the right
money that he sometimes was carried a
block or so past his destination, and
then had to walk back.
Then, too, there was the smart young
man who would pay fares for q half
dozen friends with a choice collection
OF big Canada coppers, but the money
was always taken smilingly.
OF course the conductors were tired.
They quit shortly before midnight, and
many of them had aching heads and
weary feet, but they all knew they had
put in good days work, and many a
stray nickel or quarter above the regu.
lar fare had come their way" and
they were satisfied.

ANTI-FAT CRAZE.
Methods In Vogue In Europe for Reduc
ing Superfiuous Ayoirdupois.

Banting, the artificial thinning-down
process, is just now craze in London.
1t Is said that both men and women de.
vote much time and thought to the sub.
ject, and those physicians who make a
speciality of reducing weight have
reaped harvest of profit. According
to correspondent, of the various sys,
TENS in vogue the most eficacious
seems to be that pursued and recon.
mended by the French doctors-the
fish regimen. The patient lives entire.
ly on various kinds of fish, small slice
of wholemeal bread being permitted
with each meal. British specialists
deny to their patients any food con-
tanning either sugar or starch. Anti
fat disheshave largely entered into the
menu of all well-ordered establish.
ments, and toast has taken the place of
bread. 1t is said that DIR. Zwiningen,
Bismarck's physician, simply orders his
patients to entirely forego any kind Of
liquid with their meals. By this means
he claims to make the stoutest man be-
come normal in size.
