it will hardly hold the gathering that
will greet the delegates from Ireland, es-
pecially as they will speak only once in
the state of Minnesota, and that on tho
evening above mentioned. Large dele
cations are expected to come from St.
Paul and other Minnesota towns, and
the Americans of every nationality are
as curious to hear this remarkably Gull
tured and intensely patriotic young lady
as are the Irish themselves. Rev. DIR.
Shutter. the noted Universalist divine,
of this city, and true friend of the
Irish cause, will make the Introductory
address. Other speakers Of celebrity
will also entertain the audience, but the
great address of the evening will be that
of the Irish heroine who is attracting 50
much attention throughout the United
States. In order that no one shall be
deprived of the pleasure Of hearing Miss
Come, the managers of the entertain
ment have placed the admission fee to
all parts of the house at twenty-five
cents. A musical program will be rend
cred during the evening In the intervals
between the speeches.
The following sketch of Miss Come
will be read with interest at this time:
Nothing is more delightful than an
enthusiastic woman-or more dangerous,
says A. w. Worse in the Illustrated
American. Both the delight and the
danger increase to infinity when the
woman is beautiful.
It is not remarkable that the English
government deemed it expedient to issue
a warrant for Miss Maud Comes ar
rest-nor that they preferred to connlve
make of her a martyr. The blood Of dead
Irishmen and the sights Of imprisoned
ones arc seeds of rebellion. A new
martyr with such an influence as Miss
Comes might have destroyed the union
But Miss Come hopes that, free as she
is, her influence may help to destroy the
union. She has come to WELD it through
out America, and if reports of her sue.
cess in rousing audiences be not exag-
gerated, England had better take heed
to herself in 1895.
Miss Maud Come is an Irish national
list, and that is extraordinary, for she
was born and bred of the land-holding
order. Educated chiefly in England and
France, she was in a fair way to develop
into a conventional young woman Of
the upper classes.
But one evening at brilliant dinner
party, she heard the host. an Irish land
lord, tell the story of an eviction.
A man had refused to pay rent. Dis
crediting his plea that the holding bare
ly yielded enough to keep tenant and
family from the grave, the landlord
turned them out.
II saw the reward of their obstinacy
this evening"" said the host. II passed
them on the way home. They are living
in a ditch. His wife," added the land
lord, sis i'll; think she will die tonight"
Miss Come awaited an outburst Of
sympathy But from the brilliant COM
pany came only complaints of stubborn
tenants.
Her own sympathy with the suffering
family led Miss Come to investigate
evictions. She began to study Irish his
tory as it is. not in the wholly partisan
way in which. she intimates, 1t is taught
in English schools.
Ultimately she threw her heart into
the national cause. She stirred up ten
ants against landlordism, comforted
evicted families. even reinstated them,

MIRACLES IN MEDICINE.
The Wonderful Progress Made Within the
Past Few Years.
Diseases That Our Mothers Thought IncurabIe Now
Cured by Pane's Celery Compound.

Il is difficult, almost impossible, to
overestimate the Importance of recent
advances in medicine and surgery.
In surgery there is the application of
the X-ray in determining complicated
fractures.
In medicine there is the serum treat
ment for germ diseases, and more i'm
portant still, the extended use of
Paine's celery compound in the treat
ment OF the many diseases that arise
from faulty or impaired nervous sys-
ten.
This class OF ailments causes more
suffering and earlier deaths than all
others, and that is why so much pub
lie prominence was at once given to
Paine's celery compound when its dis
rovery was first announced by Prof.
Phelps of Dartmouth college.
The rapid and sure way that Paine's
celery compound cures neuralgia, rheu-
matism and nervous debility is marvel
Gus even in Vhe eyes OF this wonder
working quarter of the century.
Ancient miracles were contrary to
natural laws, whereas the remarkable
power of Paine's celery compound to
make people well, comes from a better
understanding of the natural causes OF
disease.

Mr.. Stover laid his rifle down and has
tened to his fallen game for the pur-

reached the deer and leaned over TO
apply the knife, the animal leaped to
his feet and glared at Mr.. Stover.
Instantly the man seized the beast
by the horns. This action terrified the
buck. He made plunge, and down
the steep sides of Devils canyon he
went. carrying the man with him on
his antlers. The deer was madly
frightened, and Mr.. Slower was more
scared than the deer. He could not
turn loose, and away went man and

When near the bottom of the canyon
the deer fell against tree, and before
ne could get up, Mr.. Stover grabbed Il
