Irish Everywhere.

A correspondent OF German American
Catholic paper says:
freshmen in America will be aston
ished to learn that the number of German
army and navy officers of Irish blood and
with Irish names is quite considerable, as
the latest issue Of the official 'M.litar-
Rangliste,' shows. have counted three
score of O'Gradys, McCarthys, O'Briens,
ORourkes. Sullivans. O'By1nes and Me-
Sweeneys among them. On inquiry !
learn that some of these men trace their
pedigree back to some Irish ancestor who
did soldiers service in Germany during
the Thirty Years War (1618-48), but that
others had Irish forefa5he1s who remained
IN Germany after the seven years and
the Napoleonic wars. Cne retired general
-O'Byrne- commanded the Saxon First
Regiment of Guards during the Franco
German war of 1870. Another retired
officer, Major O'G1'ady (reputed for his
good photographic work., has left the Ger
man service and entered that Of Chilli,

A TRICK ON THE FLEAs.

Insect Lies; All persons who nave lived
in house which has become infested with
7eas in summer VIII know how these erea-
lures inllab bit the floor by preference, and
how they viii jump upon the legs and
ankles of everyone who passes near them.
Taking advantage, of this fact, some
years ago, when the lower floor. OF Nc
Graw IIalltof Cornell University was
badly infested by feas. which had come
from animals temporarily kept there in
confinement, Prof s. IF: Gage invented
the following ingenius plan. He had the
ianitor put ou a pair of rubber boots. and
then tad thin sheets of fly paper, with the
sticky sides outward. around the legs of
the boots. The janitor was then to- patrol
the lower floor for several hours a. day.
The result was gratifying and rather sur
prising. The sheet of fly paper soon be-
came black with feas and had to be
changed at ,interva1 Is but by this means
the building vas almost compile ely rid of
the pest, with a, minimum Of trouble 10

Richardson's Trial.

st. Paul, March 25.-H. K. Richari J.
sons trial was begun in Judge Willis
court today, AID the entire day was con-
sumed in securing seven jurors The only
incident of interest thus far in the pro-
ceedings was little tilt between the court
and the attorneys over the question as to
whether the fact that a man who had
served on a jury within year was dis
qualified as juror in the case. Mr.. Rich
ardson, who resides in Minneapolis, was
secretary, and Geo. F. Edwards of Min
neapolis was president Of the defunct
Snow Church Company, and they are both
under indictment for the grand larceny
Of 5000 collected by the Snow-Church
Company for the La Belle Wagon Works
Of Wisconsin. There are number of
accounts in the Indictment, but they all
practically mean the same thing. The
defendants demanded separate trials.

Feast of the A1nunciatioll.

Last Wednesday was the Feast Of the
tAnnunciation. The following interest
ing story is told concerning the incident
which gave rise to the observance:
In the little town of Nazareth, nestled
among the hills of Gali,ee, faithful vir-
gin was praying in her fathers house
alone, when 10! the privacy Of her cham
Der was broken in upon by man un-
known to her. Youthful he seemed and
Respondent with the light of God. She
knew him not, though his words betrayed
his intimate knowledge of her. It was
Gabriel sent to Mary. It was the mo-
ment when the worlds redemption SC
long promised-so long delayed-was
about to begin. You will find the ST
Luke's gospel in those first chapters
which Mary doubtless dictated to some OF
the early disciples, the exquisite account
alton is the. day for. reading that chap
ter, and every Catholic who has the leis-
ure should read the beautiful story as
told in second chapter of St. ,Luke's Cos
pei.
Only day separates the commemora-
tion of the joyful Annunciation and the
cdmmem0ration of the Sorrows of Mary
the seven dolors or sorrows, of her life.
It is an indication of how closely united
Jesus and Mary are in the estimation Of
the Church, that one of the Fridays OF
Lent, which, save this one, are all de-
voted to the sufferings Of Jesus, is ,dedi-
Gated to the sorrows Of Mary. AS Jesus
was the man of sorrows, SO might Mary
who lived in him, be said to be the wo-
man of sorrows-the mother of, SORROWS
as her devout Clients love 70 call her
Sorrow came upon her not as a spasm OF
grief, not in sudden, violent outbursts,
but as the deep undercurrent of her life
There were moments, when it surged
into a tempestuous sea of PAIN as when
she saw Him hanging on the cross or torn
from her sacred embrace by His furious
enemies. We call them Seven, because
pions souls have fixed their loving re-
CARDS upon seven sorrowful scenes in her
life. not as embracing all she bore, but
as expressing some. 1t is the spirit
which pervades that beautiful medieval
hymn, the "Stabat Mater which best

A Police Officer of Long Service Re.
signs From the Force.
Mounted Patrolman Edward w. HOban
| of the fifth precinct Wednesday resigned
his position as member of the Mime
apol.s police department This action on
his part was voluntary, and was IN keep
ing with a long cherished desire to return
to his native home in New York, al
! though it was also precipitated by his
| temporary suspension by Chief Smith
through his self-confessed breach Of OFF,
cial duties.
Hobans name will be recalled in con-
| nection with his shooting Of William
Moore, lead pipe burglar last year, re-
sulting in his death, and also his prom
inent connection with the Perkins murder
case. He has previously been reprimand-
ed by the police superintendent for acts
not strictly in accord with his duties. John
Carlson appeared at police headquarters
yesterday and lodged complaint against
him. Carlson is employed by a family
named Sawyer, residing ait Park avenue
and Twenty seventh street. His face was
badly battered and he placed the respon-
sibility on officer Hobam. He stated that
he found the officer. lettering about the
barn, and the conversation ensuing re-
suited in dispute in which he was as
saulted by Hohan. The officer, he said,
used his cienched first on his face repeat
eddy.
After investigating the complaint SUI
perintendent Smith decided to suspend the
| officer, pending review Of the case by
Mayor Pratt on the return of the latter
| from San Francisco. Hoban was notified
! of the decision, and Immediately donned
citizens clothes. Late in the afternoon
he visited police headquarters and hand
ed in his resignation as a patrolnan to the
superintendent It was accepted without
further ceremony.
In speaking of the incident Superin-
tenndent Smith said: "After careful in
CURRY into the complaint the only thing
for me was to suspend him. | have not
the authority to ask his resignation. That
is something for the mayor to pass judg-
ment on. Hoban admitted making the as
sault, which was without justification. As
| near as I could learn he had no business
about the barn, and even if so his au-
| thority as an officer did not warrant his
striking the complainant as he did. 1t
must not be supposed 1 intend calling
men before me repeatedly for reprimand.
An officer is supposed to know his duties,
and when he transgresses beyond a GER
tain point he must take the consequences.
Hoban was among the oldest men on the
force, and In many respects an efficient Of
fcer."
The officer spoke of the affair as follows:
II had made up my mind to resign in June
to return to New York, and the occur
renee resulting IN my suspension moved
! me to act ait once. The absence from the
city of Mayor Pratt meant that my case
could not be considered for about four
! weeks, during which time I would be
idle
Hoban became a member Of the police
force in August, 1886, and has ranked
among the highest of the mounted patrol

and made an assignment. This action
upon the part of Mr.. O'ConnOr was de-
cided upon Saturday night. but the for
NAL assignment was made Monday morn
ing. This failure proves a surprise to
the local liquor trade The immediate
cause of the assignment is the action OF
George Benz & Sons, the wholesale liquor
dealers, who have a claim of about $500,
and in whose favor an attachment had
been issued O'Connor's place is located
at 326 Nicollet avenue, and it was one of
the most attractive saloons in the city.
In fact, the attractiveness of the estab
lishment is to considerable degree an
explanation for the proprietor's financial
troubles. Last fall there was complete
transformation of the interior of the
place. and in this improvement several
thousand dollars more than the proprie-
tor had was used. The obligations then
assumed made it impossible for Mr..
OConnor to keep up with his regular liza
bilities, and the result is that the place
had to be closed. Peter S. Nelson has
been decided upon as assignee The liza
bilities are something like $4,000.
