YOU Work For Him.

Like many other girls who visited the
Worlds Fair, she wore tiny silver cross.
A certain morning found her in the
Turkish Village, studying the bright-faced
merchants and laughing at the queer jim
giles with which they announced their
wares. One Of the men was more insist
ent than the others-so much so that,
scarcely knowing why she did it, she
crossed to his booth and made small pur-
chases. AS he was wrapping 1t he looked
UP at her.
"You work for Him, don't you?" he
said. -,
For a moment the girl was puzzled.
Then she touched the tiny cross.
do you mean this?" she asked in sur
prise. do you know what it means?"
YES" he answered, gravely. I. H.
Mn His Name It must make you
very happy"
The girl went away, but the words chung
to her memory. Happy. She had known
many hours Of aimless impatience. Rest
lessness and discomfort oppressed her
friends as well, even those whose hands
were full Of life's best gifts.
She and they called themselves Chris
tians.. yet one whom she might have
thought q heather had perceived her priv
ilege and told her her duty. Z:

she had promised, how could she expect

(Written for the Republic) ~
At last they're free! the gallant ones, their
bondage night is done,
Their prison cells are open wide, they now
can face the sun. -.
But God! how lone and desolate the
threshold where they stand
Old friends are dead and times are
changed-they're strangers In the
land.
With pallid face and sunken eye, and shat
tered health and mind,
They totter from the prison door-an early
grave to find.
Upon their bent and withred forms the
+. people shud'ring gaze,
And ask aloud, Are these the men we
knew in other days?"
Great God! what awful punishment, what
torture changed them SO?
Was it the years Of wild despair or brutal
jailor's blow?
Could man to man be 50 unjust, so savage
and unkind?
But they are free-ay! free to die-a wreck
In soul and mind.
You. Irishmen! who prattie loud of
peace" and British faith"
Behold these scared and broken forms
out-f1ung to living death.
Think, if you can, their late release Is
token of good will -
That England means to right the past and
grant you justice still. ~.
O, blind and bloody England! now drunk
with wine Of pride,
Behold thy waning grea tness and thy for
tunes ebbing tide!
Think of the awful, coming day when,
through thy shattered square.
The Irish millions, vengeance led, a light
ming bolt shall tear.

Since Molly Went.

How bleak and bare the blue hills seem
81. Since Molly went away!
The dark has lost the rosy dream,
The sunshine's left the day. 81
The birds sing not as sweet as when
They saw the roses stir,
And look and listen In the glen a.
For the dear steps of her.
IT seems that for the birds, the. brook,
There's never any May;
And that when Molly went she took
The world and all away.
* sit here when the days begun
And feel the lonely place, w.,
The sunflowers following the sun
4 And dreaming Of her face. =,
And wonder why in shrub and tree
The sweetest birds are dumb; -.
While all the roses look at me
And whisper: "Will she Gomez"
I didn't think 'twould seem SO strange,
That any heart would break,
But how this world Of Gods can change
For one dear woman's sake!
One little woman! 'will she come?
The rose stays, day by day,
I answer not: Ny heart IS dumb
Since Molly went away!

two weeks from that date, the first being

Protestant lineage were !: admitted as
members Of the religious order. Father

church, Joined the Brook Farm com
munity with Arestes A.. Brownson; Chas.
"A. Dana and others. Brownson subse-
quently went over to Rome and became
one of the ablest champions Of Gatholi-
cism. Lord Brougham considered him
the profoundest thinker that America
has produced Other great men followed
him into the church, such as Father
Baker, Father Desfon,sS a.. classmate Of
Grants at West Point; Father WalWorth,
author of "The Gentle. Skeptic;; :" Father
Hewitt, a ripe philosopher; Father
Searle, the noted astronomer Father
Elliot, union soldier; Father Young;
author of Protestant and Catholic
Countries Compared" Father. Doyle, ed
itor of the Catholic World; and many
others known as missioaries and literary
men. The present Bishop Of Sioux Falls,

According to the English official statis-
tical returns, the total number Of emigrants
from Ireland from the list of January to
the end Of August last, was 31,743. Com
pared with the corresponding period of 1895
this showed afdiminution of nearly 5000.
With the exception of about / 400, all the
Irish emigrants came to the United States.
But this return does not include the emil
grafton OF Irish emigrants (not registered
from English and Scotch ports, which
would make a considerable addition to the
sum total. English official statistics, with
regard to Irish economic questions, are al
ways doubtful because they are designed
to be misleading as to- the actual facts.

Shorter's eyes, as it was of very coarse

management said the members in the
early days of the club, had been in the
habit of bringing their dinners tied up in
pocket handkerchiefs, and other vulgar
sneers of that nature. All this is the
more remarkable as the proprietor Of the

explanation, but that gentleman vouchsafed
no reply, except to tender his resignation,
