A Prominent Belfast Woman worker.

A Prominent Belfast Woman Worker
Miss Mary Galway, president of the
Textile Operatives Society OF ireland,
was born in the village of Magheralin,
County Down, Ireland, in 1870, and for
several years attended the village
school of that place. Miss Galway was
born in the textile industry, her par
ents being hand-loom cambria weav-
ers, whom she assisted at an early age.
Having a dislike for weaving, she de-
cided to go to the city of Linen-Bel-
fast-to learn another branch Of the
business. At the age of sixteen she
arrived in the city, perfect stranger,
without any friends to advise or guide
her, but succeeded in obtaining en-
ploYment in one of the largest ware
houses, that of Messrs. Harden, hand
kerchief manufacturers, where she
learned the hemstitching, and was very
successful In this work. She remained
in the employment of this firm until
1894, when they sold out. She next Sc
eursd employment in the warehouse
Of Messrs. Lindsay and Thompson, in
whose employment she is at present.
Miss Galway was among the first to
Join the Textile society at it's forma-
ton by Lady Dixie in 1893. In June,
1884, she was elected a member of the
executive council of the society, and
also delegate to the trades council to
represent the warehouse girls in that
body. In March, 1895, she was APP
pointed collector of the largest district
in connection with her society. In
June of the same year she was elected
president, and had the honor to be the
first lady president who ever presided
over the Textile society. She was re-
elected in January, 1896, and again in
January, 1897, and is still collector,
delegate to council and a member of
the executive committee of the council.
Miss Galway's only thought is the ad-
vancement of her sister workers. She
devotes all her spare time to that pur-
pose.
Miss Galway is recognized as a lady
Of wonderful energy and tenacity. It is
conceded that by her individual efforts
che brought the Textile Operatives
Society to remarkably high state of
usefulness, when it promised to be an
utter failure. In the language of our
Irish correspondent, she is the most
ardent trade-unionist in Ireland, and
IN fact the most successful have ever
met in my travels. Eight Hour

THREE HEROES OF THE FLOOD

One Subscribed for His Own Medal Under
Embarrassing Circumstances.
From the Kansas City Journal Jake
Admire tells a very funny story about
thing which happened at Guthrie the
other day. During the flood three
young men had been particularly gal
liant in rescuing people and the citizens
determined to present them with med
ais. A young man was started out to
collect subscriptions for this purpose,
and presently he came up to several
young men standing upon a corner,
among whom was Mccartney, one of
the men for whom the medals were to
he procured.
Boys, I'm collecting money to buy
medals for Mccartney, Willis and Piatt
Will you help?"
YES" replied Mccartney, with a
wink to his companions, "but, while 1
am willing to help in getting medals
for Willis and Platt, don't think Nc
CARNEY deserves one. He simply fell
into the river and had to be helped
out"
Well, between you and me-" conf

er, II don't think so either, but folk

Mccartney paid over his subscrip-

ministration at washington to which
they are indebted for their appoint
ment, and then step aside to make way
for others who are as new to the duties
and to the responsibilities of their
mission as their predecessors at the
time Of their nomination. Just at the
present moment the resignation of all
those who have held ONCE abroad un-
der President Cleveland are being
on file at the state department, while
President Mckinley is busily engaged
In the task of selecting their success
ors, and as usual the question-which
has become regular feature Of each
change of administration-has been re-
viVed as to whether it would not be
more advantageous for the United
States to organize g diplomatic service
similar to that of foreign nations, and
to appoint men trained in the profess
sion to the offices of ambassadors and
Of ministers, instead of adhering to the
present practice of nominating those
devoid Of diplomatic experience.
Fifteen years spent in the foreign
service of European power, during
the course of which have enjoyed a
considerable amount OF intercourse
with the diplomatic representatives Of
the United States in various portions of
the globe, may serve as an excuse for
Offering in print a personal opinion to
the effect that the interest of this
country abroad, far from being in any
way tnjuriously affected by the alb
sence Of trained men at the head of
the missions, are, on the contrary,
benefited thereby. And these views
are shared by most of the foreign Off
Gals, statesmen, politicians and court
dignitaries with whom l have had &c
casion to discuss the matter. They hold
that this great commonwealth is far
more appropriately and efficiently rep
resented in the Old World By men of
sufficient eminence at home 10 lead to
their selection from among Lhe candi-
dates for the post by the president and
the senate of their native land than by
trained diplomats who would owe the
Office to seniority and promotion, the
major part of their lives having nee
essarily been spent out Of America.
The distance between this Nountry and
Europe is so great that oven the most
patriotic citizen of the United States
gets out of touch with American ideas
after having lived for n few years
abroad. He becomes susceptible to
local influence, and, losing the broad
American manner of LOOKING at things.
gradually grows to view them SIS Eu-
ropeans do.
This is apparent in tne correspond
ence of almost every american jour
nalist who goes abroad to represent
his paper, and it is only by frequent
trips home that even the most bril-
liant of them can manage to suppress
the tendency to be unduly Influenced
by the character of their surroundings
and by the atmosphere in which they
live. If this is the case with news
paper men, it naturally follows that an
American diplomat, who is daily and
hourly brought into coNtact with those
foreign bureaucrats and officials to
whom etiquette and conventionality
are a gospel and the concealment of
thought, as we'll as of sentiment, a
creed, will sooner loas his American
breadth Of view and freshness of mind
than the American newspaper corre-
spondent.

The convicts who do duty on the Capi-
tol Square daily were called upon yester-
dav 10 mourn the death OF one OF their
dearest friends, and though their griei
vas made more poignant by the fact
that he had committed suicide. stu 1t
was assuaged in a measure by the thought
that he had been freed from the bondage
in which he had for, many months Deeh

The suicide occurred in the Capitol
Square. and the unfortunate being teriii'-
mated his existence at the end OF chaih'

neck. while the other was hung 10 limD
of one of the old trees on the hlllside.
Strange to say. the lifeless body hung
some time before It was discovered, ana
the discovery was only brought ABOUT
by the falling of the limb.
The suicide had been imprisoned in one
Of the rooms OF the Capitol building for
some time. and his wants had been at
tended TO by the convicts, who mad learn

qualities The prisoner had been guilty
of no wrong doing. but a chain was Kept
around his neck. and when finally he
made his escape, ne carried his chain

THE NEW TARIFF LAW.
How Retail Merchants Are Affected
by Its Provisions.

The retail merchants of the city are
by no means entranced with the new
tarlff law. Its effect is general and
sweeping. and it caps the old Mckinley
bill. which was regarded as excessive
and iniQuitous by per cent.

side the regular lines of his BUSH

who live in the old country wished TO
show their mindfulness of her birthday
by sending her a present. The gift took
the form OF a piece Of jewelgy, and it
arrived at the post-Oiiice last Saturday,
the day on which the Dingiey ill was
signed. The postal authorities sent the
lector OF Customs, for valud, Ion ana col
lection OF dues. The merchant. who had
been notified OF the arrival OF the trinket,
called. and the parcel was opened and
valued by the Collector al $40. The duly

30 per cent of the value. The merchant

Washington that the Dlngiey bill went

under the new bill is IS per cent more

with the tenor of the notice, and had TO

IS NOT A POLITICAL CLUB.
ola Dominion's Committee so Re-
ports on Mr.. Stern's Organization


Tho old Dominion Democratic Club
held its regular meeting in Thons han
last night with President William Wood
en- the chair. The name Of Mr.. Henry
6 Armstrong. Of Clay Ward was pre-
scented by Mr.. IL. c. Adams for MEM
bership The Chair stated that as the
gentleman was not Of this ward he could
not be elected an active member ana
a motion prevailed to refer the applca-
ton 10 the Committee on Membership.
The president called for the report OF
committees. The special committee. con
sisting of Messrs. w. H. Mullen, John H.
Redwood. and II. G. Adams, to inVesu-
gate the nature and workings Of the
John w. Daniel Club. made its report,
the sense of which was that the club in
question was not i'm any way political,
but purely a social organization com
nosed of some active and valued members
of the old Dominion Democratic club.
A motion was then made TO receive the
report. and that motion prevailed without
Il dissenting vote.
The secretary then read commune
cation from Mr. Samuel Stern, rendering
his resignation as Vtce-presldent ana
member Of the Old Dominion. A
motion was made 10 receive the
resignation, and a warm discus
sion followed. The sentiment pre-
vailed that the whole matter was. lack
ing dignity. and that such action should
be taken as TO put an end TO the talk
that had brought the club into unplea-
SAINT. and, perhaps. hurtful notoriety. \
substitute was, however, adopted to take
a recess Of ten minutes when friends Of
MIR. Stern might speak with him, and
learn his feelings on the subject in light
of the report which the Committee on In
vestigation had brought in.
AT the expiration Of the recess Mr.
Mullen stated that he had seen Mr. Stern,
and that the gentleman said he desired
in view of what had taken place, TO
withdraw the resignation then before the
body This ended the matter.
