IRISH OF GERMAN DESCENT.
A Race Mixture Found in Various
Parts OF the World.

Parts OF the World.
May people have been surprised 10
learn that there are in Baltimore
Observation-Disclosures that is, persons
descended from German parents in
ireland. Such Irishmen of German
origin are, however. also to be found
elsewhere; thus, for instance, Bishop
| Thomas BOnacum, of Omaha, is an
freshman of German descent. The il
lustrate the reason for this the follow
ing facts might be of service: In the
year 1909 great number of Palatines
Were induced to emigrate. partly on
account of the distress consequent to
the French war. but more so on ac-
count of the glowing accounts from
tle first German immigrants to Penn
sylvania. Thev came in great num-
oers to Rotterdam, depending for as
sistance on England, whence already
in 170S great number of Palatines
mad been transported to New York.
They came, however, in too great
numbers, and there were no vessels to
convey them from Rotterdam to Lon
don For some time they were cared
for in the former city, but when this
proved too great burden England
had them transported to London,
wnere they We're housed and properly
cared for.
But on the first of June the number
had grown to 10000, in consequence
of which England caused a publication
to be made in Holland on June, 1I09,
that no new immigrants would be
thenceforth received. Nevertheless.
until October, 1909, some 1000 more
crossed over.
The expense of supporting these
Germans at Greenwich Camp" near
London, was betrayed by large col
lections through a committee, to which
the highest parsons in the realm be-
longed. Queen Anne gave $500 daily.
But even for wealthy England this
burden soon became too great, there
fore efforts were made to send these
people to America, and many of them
went to Schoharie, in New York.
Many of them died, but there still
remained a large number, so that
$500 Palatines were sent to Ireland,
where they settled in the County of
Limerick, making splendid progress
as skillful farmers and mechanics,
such as linen weavers.-Philadelphia

New YORK, Jan. 21.-Col. Robert
Ingersoll has returned from the West.

of lectures.
Il take it for granted" he said,
that the people who prayed for me
are my friends, and that they really
want their God to convert me. OF
course, no prayer was ever answered.
Prayer may be kind of relief to the
one who prays, but whether the pray
er is addressed to- stone goo or a
wooden one, to a stuffed snake or a
totem, or to Jehovah, the result is the
same.
II don't think that the prayers have
affected me. | believe that / haze as

Iow as before the prayers were made,
and that | am as much opposed to
orthodox savagery as | was before

Il can not be converted unless my

WHAT WILL ENGLAND DO:
Far-Reachfng Effect of the Turco-

Far-Reachfng Effect of the Turco-
Russian Alliance.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 9Th,
London cable giving the details of tn,
treaty reported to have been perfected
between Russia and Turkey was Gil
culated on the floor of the Senate te :
day, and was read with expressions o .
general interest, especially by tn,
members of the Committee on Foreign
Relations. Senator Davis expresse,
the sentiments of a majority of tn,
committee when he said: IF true.
this is the most important diplomatic
event which has occurred in the pas,
fifty years. 1t means that Russia cal
move her armies across the Turkish
border. Such a treaty would result
in the immediate settlement of the
Armenian question, and if France has
also entered into the alliance, as it APP
pears probable, the result would be
that the fleet of those two countries
would virtually control the Mediterra
mean, and that means more than any
one can now foresee. 1t also means
that England will have something to
do besides bullying Uncle Sam
Senators Lodge, Morgan and Cullom
read the report with avidity, and all
remarked upon the vast Importance of
the news if it should prove to be true.
Mr.. Lodge said that coalition be-
tween Russia and Turkey such as that
indicated would mean that England
would have her hands full of business
on her own continent without interfer-
ing in American affairs.

STUART AFTER A FIGHT
Will Hang Up a Purse Of Twelve
Thousand Dollars.
Guarantees Fitzsim mons and Corbett
That He Can Pull the Contest Off
without Interference.

New York, April 24.-Dan Stuart, the
Texas protector of fistic sport, who has
been in New York for the past month ar
ranging his plans TO bring Corbett and
Fitzsimmons together in the ring some time
this fall, has invited the two boxers or
their repre- sentatives to meet him at noon
on Saturday to consider his proposition and
| sign articles of agree ment.
Stuart will offer purse of 2,0eO for
a glove contest to he held some time during
November of this year, and will guaran-
tee " furnish battle-ground where fight
can be held without interference, or forfeit
the entire purse to the principals. He
will post one-third of the amount OF the
purse when the articles are signed, ard
the balance hn September 1 5, when a meet
ing will be held for the purpose Of select
ing a referee end final stakeholder.
The Texas sport refuses to divuige the
name of the place where the ring will be
pitched or anything about his plans. for
obvious reasons. but says significantly that
If Fitzsimmons and Corbett want to fight
they need not worsy about the affair after
signing the articles.
Bill Brady. who is looking after Corbett's s
interests received telegram from the lat
ter. authorizing him to sign Stuart's ar
ticles without question and deposit any
forfeit that may be required. Brady said
last night that he would be on hand pre-
pared to do business.

Cincinnati, Ohio, April 24.-As amcmber
of the jury in the national board which

to bc reticent in pre- judging the case. The
question, Has Cincinnati Il chance to get
Rusic?" brought from him only the faint
est smile. There are People in New York" T"
said he, '.who have jumped AT conclusions,
and they possibly would not change their
mind, no matter what sort OF story I'd
send them. As have repeatedly said,
have not had any talk with Rusie since
last fall, and have seen him but once to
nod TO for mouths
Frank Robson of. the Cleveland club,
who has been here for several days, said:
"If Rusie's story is true, then he has a
strong claim agains the New York club.
Ir it is a fact that Rusie was fined $1CO
for losing a game, then Mr.. Freedman ex-
ceeded his authority. he had no more
right to inflct such a fine than the league
would have to take the New York franchise
away from him. A ball player is as much
entitled to his rights as a ma agnate. Fair
play all around should be the leagues
motto, and until you have it trouble is
