gentry and by the peers of Ireland. Before that time, whatever might be the political color of the Ministry or Jne day in England the executive III Ire land was always looked on as the friend of the minority, and, according ly, to every levee, ball and dinner gwen by a Viceroy, whether he happened to be a Liberal or a Tory, there troopeo the whole genteel regiment of Irish "loyalist" ladies and gentlemen. The Home Rule era came at last in lSS6, with the Earl of Aberdeen, now the Governor-General of Canada, and the high-and-dry aristocratic "UnionistS, as they began to call themselves, at once rigidly boycotted the viceregal court. They would not recognize the representative of the Queen because he was also a member of Home Rule administration.
 The Home Rule Government of 1886 was soon beaten, and then there came to Ireland the Unionist Marquis Of Lon donderry, the descendant Of the Lord Castlereagh who promoted the lnsur- rection in '9S and carried the union of 1900. The Irish aristocracy ana gentry again began to flock to Dublin Castle, and the yiceregal lodge in Phoenix Park and old times were once more restored.
 In 1892, however, there was another change. A Home Rule Government came in again and Home Rule Lord Lieutenant came to Dublin. The social boycott was immediately re- newed. Lord Houghton, now the Earl of Creve, was treated in precisely the same manner as Lord Aberdeen by the t1ovalist'' peers and gentry of Ireland He could get no one to attend his en- tertainments be--ond the leading mem- bers of the Castle entourage and the civil service.
 In 1895 another change of Govern ment occurred, and the scene was en- tirely changed once more.

colorable pretext for the absurd fears which some Irishmen belonging to the "loyal' minority seem to entertain in regard to any commemoration of the Men of '9S' By right, indeed, the members of that minority ought to be themselves among the foremost Tn celebrating the memory of '9S, and that for very obvious reasons.
 In the first place, the original pro- gramme of the United Irishmen" of that period was one of constitutional reform. It embraced nothing more than the widening Of the suffrage on which the Irish Parliament was elected, the emancipation of the Catholics, and the making of the executive Govern ment responsible to the legislative au- thority. No doubt, the United Irishmen aimed ultimately at other things widely different, but the main body of them at heart were forced to do so by the tactics of the English Government of the time which. though an Irish Parlia- ment existed, appointed the executive for Ireland and directed all its opera tions.
 Those tactics included the most atro- cious outrages on the people, A for eign soldiery were let loose, and with them and the native minority burned the chapels and churches of the ma jority, footed the peasants homes on the slightest pretexts, violated their women and destroyed their property. The natural result was the instruction of '9S. and the pity of it was that it was left chiefly to one county-Wex- ford-to rise in armed rebellion"
 But the origin of the whole matter ought not to be forgotten. and it Is true, as I have said, that the original programme of the men of '9S was con- stitutional reform, and that those who had the chief part in framing that pro- gramme were the Protestants and Presbyterians of Ulster, who now so strongly object to any celebration Of the men or of the deeds of '99

nearly fifty millions of pounds sterling every year upon its army and navy should not be able to afford the small sum necessary for such a transaction. Meanwhile the condition of the suffer CTS is very bad and outside relief from any quarter will be heartily welcomed by the committees in charge
 The '98 centenary celebration in the Phoenix Park last Sunday was one of a very impressive and imposing kind. It was attended by an enormous gather ing, chiefly recruited of course from Dublin itself, but composed also of rep resentatives from all the four pr ovinces of Ireland. The meeting was so large that four platforms had to be impro- vised, one for each of the provinces, and at each speeches were delivered by well-known Nationalists who do not, all of them, agree on other subjects. As a preliminary demonstration, 1t was de- cidedly successful and at the same time, while it showed unmistakably that the spirit of Irish nationality is alive and vigorous, there was noth- ing about 1t to give any ground or even

source of attraction to the castle sea- son has been afforded by the installa- tion of the Earl of Arran as "knleht of St. Patrick" All those entertain ments have been always much Of a piece. They have been, as well as can gather, extremely dull affairs, ana consist in a number of finely dressed ladies and men in hired uniforms bow ing to his Excellency and waiting for hours in a crowded hall for the mere purpose of having their names Tn the newspapers the following day and mak- ing a political demonstration.

 One of the most (personally) popular of Irish pressmen has died in the course of the past week in the person or Dr. Patton, editor of the Dublin Daily EEK press He was not only editor Of the Express. but also for many years Dub lin correspondent of the London Times. Tn this latter capacity he filled :, very important post and served his party the party of the "loyalist" minority very well. indeed In other words. he did a good deal of harm in his time to the Irish cause, for the Irish news in the Times was the chief source of information for Englishmen on Irish affairs. But, personally, as have said, he was very popular, for he was cour- icons affable and educated gentleman who never abused his position to in duIge in personal attacks. Among his fellow journalists especially he was a "persona grata.' With his demise, in ail proba bility, will come a change not only in the editorship, but in the poli- tics of the Express. That journal has up to the present been high and dry Tory organ, and the organ especially of the Protestant clergy of Ireland. IL is extremely significant of the change of opinion in Ireland that the general belief is that the paper Is henceforth to be owned by MT. Horace Plunkett. who is by no means a Tory of the old school. The fact is, that the old Tor ies are now wiped out in Ireland. as we'll as in England, and in few years more they will be completely thing of the past.

SAN RAFAEL, April 2.-Colonel Peter A.

ELECTRIC SIMPLIFYING.

It appears that the Americans are likely to lead us once more in the matter of electric smelling. Europe genera iy does the research work, but America is usually the first to adapt the discoveries which are made to the practical business of life. At Niagara some improved fur
 naces are now being laid down. These are large cast-ir'bn drums and resemble in appearance the spool upon which cs- bles are wound. On the outside p5riphCr- ies iron plates can be clamped, and the Sc serve to keep in the ores which are 10 be reduced. The drum is mounted on a shaft, and can be slowly rotated by sui able gear. The electrodes are cirboas fixed side by side, their points touching an imaginary line drawn horizontally through the axis Of the furnace. The heat due to the resistance of the ore is. of course, developed between these two points. and, as the ore is reduced, the re- sultant metal lowers the resistance Of the furnace, and the amperemeter rises. When this occurs the furnace is slowly rotated, and by this movement the met al is drawn down away from the elecerods s and fresh ore is also brought between them to be acted upon in like manner
 The reduced ore cools within the furnace
 and can be extracted cold at the other side of the drum after moving tlla clamped plates. The adjustment Of the furnace is to be automatic, small motor controlled by an ammeter rotating the drum and keeping the current constant. This furnace is the outcome of ella aborate experiments. and judging from the re- suits which the author of the paper de- scribes, we should expect great things from i. London Electrical Review.

A DANGEROUS INVENTION.
A Fire Escape Whose Very popu-
 larify Nay Cause a Fire.

A ''1ire-escape'' story is the name q new brand which has been introduced by the genial assistant in Secretary | IT, sons office at the public library. Mr. Everingham. however, claims exemption on the ground of having got the story from a fire-escape agent. The 'tgoc ds'' i'll which the agent dealt was slf-rai contriyance something like a big argur reaching as high as the building. the up- per surface being highly polished and properly curved for sliding. The whole was encased in cylinder with an open ing at every floor and an exit at the lot tom Among the unsolicited teStira ials'' which the agent had on hand was one fronn school principal up in Iowa. who had evidently found that the fire escape was more than it was ella med tl be- Fire drill in his school was the most popular exercise and the pupils. after having conducted themselves sp creditably as to be entitled to some SD C. ial favor. instead of asking for hlli holiday or to spell down. would cal for few turns in the fire escape $, adept did they become in this mode cf leaving the building that the prime pal boasted that the only chance for a fire to catch one of his flock would be in ease some urchin should slip back and try 1t again.

There was nothing which could break small boys heart or bring him back to the paths Of rectitude quickly as to have to stand by his teacher and watch long line Of his comrades take a swift trip to the rubber cushion under the exit and then be turned and ignominouSly walked down the stairs.
 We'll said the agent from when Mir. Everingham got his story. the fire es- cape worked famously until the last day of school. Then there was 9 sure enough alarm of fire, and by the time all the pu- pils and the visiting children and the mammas and aunties had made their cs- cape. the spiral was so hot that when il cooled off it drew up several kinks and left the exit turned toward the wall. That defect we have remedied. however. by running a water pipe up the side of the escape with a soft metal plug every few feet, so that when a certain degree of warmth is reached the plug will melt and turn on water enough to keep down the temperature.
