Irishman only drinks about two-thirds as
much whisky as the ScOtchman.
There are twenty-seven distiIleries in
Ireland, which manufacture nearly g,
100000 gallons annually. Four millions
they drink at home they send 100000
gallons TO EngIanaTover half a million TO
Scotland, and about a quarter Of a million
direct to the colonies and foreign countries
In eight years Ireland has contributed no
less than e31 100000 to the excise.
One last product let me mention You
may 60 TO Carrara for marble; but IL you
want the most beautiful green serpentine
in the world you will find it in Galway:
if you want black marble that cannot be
equaled you can get it from the shores
of Lough Corrib; and nowhere Will you
find anything TO beat the beautiful red
marble OF Donegal, the blueand- yellow
marble of Armagh, the purple and white Of
Cork, and the vaiegated marble found IN
Kerry, near Tralee.
1t is admitted that the most beautiful
stones in the Albert Memorial, In Hyde

ASSAULT BY HOLY ENERGY
DR.. Talmage's Plan Of Battle
Against Powers of Evil.
WITH CHRISTIAN CAVALRY
Eloquent Divine's Review of Present
Opportunity for Worldwide Evan
gelization-Courage Needed for
EmbattIed Charge OF the Church.
Types OF Effective Leaders.

Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage, ID. D., preached
yesterday morning at the First Presby
terian Church a sermon, the subject be-
ing "A Forward Movement" from the
text, ii Kings, xvi:23: ~ will deliver
thee two thousand horses if thou be able
on thy part TO set riders upon them,''
the words or Rab-shakeh during the siege
of Jerusalem:
The world,' said the preacher, lis full
of great energies and great opportunities,
but few know how 10 bride them and
mount them and manage them. More
spirited horses than competent riders! The
fact is that in the church of God we have
plenty OF foTtesses Well manned, and plenty
OF heavy artillery, and plenty OF solid
columns OF brave, Christian soldicry, but
what we most need is cavalry-mounted
troops OF God-for sudden charge that
seems almost desperate.
If Washington, if New York, if Lon
don are ever taken for God, it will not
be by slow bomDardmento of augmentation,
or by regular nnlimbering Of great theo-
logical guns from the portfolios of the
churches, but by gallop of sudden assault
and rush Of holy energy that will astound
and throw into panic the long lines or
drilled opposition, armed to the teeth.
Nothing so scares the forces Of Sin as
revival that comes, they know not whence,
TO do that which they cannot tell, to
work in n way that they cannot under
stand.
The opportunities of saving America
and saving the entire planet were never so
many, never SO urgent, never so tremend-
Gus as now. Have you not noticed tie
willingness OF the printing press OF the
country to give the subject of evangelism
full swing in column after column? Such
work was formerly confined TO tract dis
trhutiou and religious Journalism. Now
the morning and evening newspapers, by
hundreds and thousands OF copies, print
all religious intelligence and print most
awakening diSCOurseS.

Never since the world has stood has
such force been offered to all engaged in

than fifteen thousand newspapers on this

alert to catch and distribute all matters
OF religious information. On, now | see
mighty suggestiveneSs in the fact that
the first book Of sny Importance that was
ever published, after Johann Gutenberg
invented the art of printing, was the Bible.
We'll might that poor man toll on polish
ing stones and manufacturing looking
glasses, and making experiments that
brought upon him the charge of insanity,
and borrowing money, now from Martin
Brother ami now from Johann Faust, until
he set on foot the mightiest power for the
evangeliZation of the world.

Teaching Vanderbilt Pere a Lesson.

OF the late William Vanderbilt lis
father, the commodore. had but poor
opinion of his business ability, and told
him he could live on farm that he owned
on Staten Island, and that that was all
he would do toward his supprt. Some
time after that the old gentleman inquired
OF his son how his farm was doing. Tie
latter replied that the crop was not good
and the farm seemed to need fertiliZing
''Well,'' said the commodore, there is a
lot of horse refuse at my stable will slve
you a load-only one" and he wrote out
an order for the one load. The next day
the commodore went TO his place and was
surprised to see that the entire collection
had disappeared Where has that sone?''-
he asked of the stable hand Why,
William H. took it, But me only had an
order for one load" That's all he took"
Why, what did he have?'' "A flatboat''

No trouble is more common or more mis-

Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pam whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any ofthe usual ymptoms OF Stomac hwea X

in the stomach much as in nearly every
other organ in some cases the heart pa lpi
tates and rs irregular: in others the kid

constipated with headaches; still others are
troubled with the loss of flesh and appetite

IRELAND BEATS THE LION
England Puts Her Name on
Irish Products.
LARGEST SHIP INTERESTS
She Has the Greatest Breweries,
y Linen, Balbriggan Hose, stout,
r Manufacturers-H Dairy ana
Cured Meats Are the Rest in
the World.

Most EngliShmen are under the I'm
preston that the only thing in which Ire
land beats them is in bogs and the number
of its enigrants. Andeven among lrishmen
themselves the belief prevails that in in
dustry and commerce they take very
back seat.
As matter offact, considering the dearth
of capital and the political unrest under
which the Emerald Isle labors, she has
good reason To be proud ofherselr. Handl-
capped as Ireland is, she can boast OF the
largest shipbuilding and thelargest brewery
concerns OF the world; OF supplying half
the people of these islands with their
linen collars, tablecloths, handkerchiefs,
and shirts; of placing on their breakfast
table the choicest bacon and butter-til-
though these generally masquerade as
products of Wiltshire and Dorset-and OF
beating the Scotch hollow with their IA
nous "John Jam eson."
There is nothing OF which England and
Scotland are more proud than their skill
in building ships. But neither the Tyne,
the Clyde, nor the Mersey can show any
thing equal to the shipbuilding yard or
Harland & Wolff Of Belfast.
For four successive years this firm held
the highest place in the world as regards
the amount of tonnage launched. Only
forty years ago the factory was SO small
that its total Of employees amounted 10
less than 100 men.
GOOd-SiZed Town.
At present it employs 8 900, which Prob
ably means that it is the life and support
OF some 20 900 men, women and ctildren-
the population Of good-siZed town. The
works cover eighty acres, and inlcudc such
host Of carpenters and Joiners' shops,
painters shops, cabinetlnakers' shops, up
holsterers' shops, boat building sheds, ury-
ing kilns, engine works, etc, that tie
visitor thinks he is in large manufactur-
ing town rather than in single factory.
All the ships of the White Star line We're
built here, including the famous TeutOnic
and ajestic. The largest vessel for COLL
mercial purposes afloat was completed at
Belfast last year. She is now engaged ill
the cattle trade, and carries the en0fIn0us
burden of o 100 tons.
Several gunboats and torpedo boats
have also been built by Messrs. Harand
& Wolff for the navy; and cruisers and
battleships have been cngined by them.
And we do not hear OF that accident so
common in the English fleet, the break
down of machinery, ever occurring TO
those ships which have got their ma
chnery in Belfast, says a writer in
Answers.
Nothing in the nature of "shOddy'' ever
comes from Ireland, in fact. That is why
the Canadian. in his Irish frieZe coat and
Donegal stockings, defies the winter; why
Balbriggan" hosea dozen pairs OF which
would wear as long a the queens reign
are initiated by not only English but Ger
man manufa cturers; why lrish tweedS find
their way all over the continent, and why
Irish stout has a foreign export greater
than the total export from England, Scot
land and Wales.

NOBLY NET HIS FATE.
A Brave Engineer Remains at
His Post
In the Presence of Certain Death. and Of
fers up His Own Life to Save Others
A Fatal Accident Caused by an
Open Switch.

GLESwooD SPRINGS, Col, May 90
An extra freight, going west, ran upon
the CABRERA siding at seven o'clock yes
terday morning to allow No 4 passen-
ger, the Atlantic express, to pass The
switch was left open. The first Sec
ton of No. ran into the open switch,
derailing the engine, mail and baggage
coaches and one passenger coach. En-
gineer John West and Fireman Denny
Donahay were instantly killed. Pas
sengers were badly bruised and shaken
up. Some had to be rescued through
holes cut in the coaches. Some were
cut with broken glass and badly
scratched, but it is thought that none
are seriously injured. All the passen-
gers of the wrecked section were
brought in this condition to Glenwood.
All the blame for the accident seems
to attach to the brakeman of the freight
train, who left the switch open.
AS soon as Engineer West discovered
the open switch he blew his whistle
and reversed his engine. He remained
on his engine, and but for his prompt
action in the last minute of his life
many more would now be numbered
among the dead. West was one
engineers on the road. The point
where the accident occurred is very
dangerous, one just on the bank of the
Grand river, where a little more mo-
mentum would have precipitated the
entire train into the water which is
now very high.
