will never hope and believe, receive
cents worth of sympathy or support from
any Irish Nationalist inside or outside of
Ireland. If home rule is only to be OBJ
tanned from the British people, liberal or
conservative, on the understanding or in
the belief that Ireland will sanction and
uphold policy of aggression against weak
nations or unarmed savage peoples when
ever it may please chartered company to
extend the bounds of the empire, in order
to grab some gold feld-if this is to be the
condition on which the right of self govern
ment is to be restored to the Irish people,
let me say in behalf of one of them that
would spurn degrading liberty of that
kind. A policy OF justice and humanity
on the other hand is one that Irishmen of
all parties would approve and uphold, and
in this connection allow me to make this
humble suggestion.
Stop your silly staggering before Amer
lea and Germany. Nobodyis deceived by
all this theatrical display of ships in the
English channel and of valor on the stage
of the London music halls. All that kind
Of performance has been witnessed before.
England acted similar part when the
United States demanded court of arbi-
tration for the satisfaction of Justice in
Alabama claims, and history tells how in
gloriously, but wisely, you backed down
and willingly consented to put away your
ironclads and music hall heroism and pay
$15, 100000 rather than risk war with
the American republic. You will repeat
the same prudent action again and submit
to President Cleveland's conditions settle
ment by arbitration. But do make some
use of your "fying squadrons' and AL
hambra Theatre warriors before the whole
serio-comic performance is laughed off the
stage OF newspaper sensations; and senG

course Of Salisburian diplomacy, which ha

Death of Joseph Wilson.

Joseph Wilson, until within few years
a prominent and active business man of
this village, died suddenly in Walpole, N.
H., yesterday, having been i'll but few
hours. Mr.. Wilson was born in Petersham,
Mass, 81 years ago, was for several years
in business at Providence, r. l., and as a
member of the firm Of Harris, Stone & Co.,
commenced commercial life here in 1850.
He was the senior member of the firm of j.
Wilson & Co., wholesale grain dealers,
severing his connection with this company
in 1892 and retired for more quiet life
about II years ago. On farm between
here and Walpole he erected home now
leased and occupied by Mr.. Banning and
family and small cottage where Mr.. and
Mrs. Wilson had lived for short time or
until last fall when they moved to Walpole
village for the winter.
Mr.. Wilson was large real estate
owner, during the earlier years of the
towns history owning such property as the
old bank block and Walker property where
the town hall is now located, and during
his stay here lived in the house now occu-
pied by J. H. Conway on School street,
which place and the lot adjoining was for
merly in his possession.
As business man Mr.. Wilson repre-
scented those qualities of honesty and integ-
rity essential to the success of any enterprise
and to the respect of all associates and CO.
workers. In a social way he was genial,
courteous and friend to whatever tended
to the advancement and welfare of the vii
lage and its people, and was an active
member of Emmanuel church.
He was married three times, his first
wife being Elizabeth Weed of Petersham,
by whom he had three children, Joseph S.,
clerk in the bank, Edward H., in Cali
fornia, and Mrs. DR.. Clark of Haverhill,

was empty.

The latest trick in numbers is to as
some one to write down any three nun
bers of four figures each prefix the fgur
two to the first number, and substitute tw
from the last figure and you have the SUI
of five numbers. The fourth number in tn
series of five, is that number which adde
to the second in the series would max
each figure in it nine, and the fifth numbe
added to the third would make each figur
nine. The five numbers added make tn
sum above indicated. The one workin
the trick writes the fourth and fifth number
and the victim does the adding. This ca
be worked rapidly and is puzzler to on
not understanding the trick.

of the most threatening evils among
the girls of the rising generation. Got
their noses in novel half the time,
narrowing up their feelings, inflaming
their imaginations, getting false views
of life and filling their minds with
false sentiments. If I had my way I'd

Woman.
An eighteen-months-o child was
kidnapped from Bethany Home, West
ern and Penn avenues, yesterday after
noon by an unknown woman. The
latter called at the place with little
girl and explained that she wanted a
child for her sister who was without
children. She was told 1t was neces-
sary that references should be fur
nished She excused their absence by
explaining she did not know such was
necessary and asked to be allowed to
look at some of the children. The
nurse brought out to the room where
she was a pretty male child and placed
him on the sofa. Finding it necessary
to leave the room for a short time she
returned to discover that the woman
had disappeared with the child. The
police were at once notified. The con-
ductor on a Western avenue car stated
he noticed the woman alight at the
home on the outward trip with little
girl. The next trip the woman boarded
the car and rode to the city but she
carried an infant in her arms. He gave
her a transfer to Bloomington avenue
car. The woman was of scandinavian
extraction and said she resided at So
