The Famine Fever Of ireland

The approach Of famine in Irelad is
likely, however, to introduce novel and
perplexing features into the British po-

have been through the poorer districts
of West Cork during the past fortnight
from which on Thursday came authen-
tic details Of the sharp outbreak of the
famine fever. There were rumors of II

this disease is worse than its nature, fol
1t is due, not to starvation, but to eating
diseased potatoes; but the fact of its
presence is none the less significant
Almost the whole potato crop along the
Atlantic coast is unfit for human food

eastern parts Of the country is nearly
as bad. This means that by the first OF

Ships Made Invisible

The French naval authorities have long

The shades Of black and gray in which
their ships are painted are scarcely dis.
