Coal In the rransvaal.

In one colliery not half dozen miles
from the gold mines have seen seam
Of coal 20 feet in thickness. This coal,
though Of a low quality, sufices for the
purposes of the gold mines, and there
is sufficient quantity of it to outlast
far the lives Of all the gold miners Be-
sides these coal deposits near the gold
fields and those others by the Vaal riv-
er, which furnish coal for the railway
system far down into Cape Colony,
there are literally hundreds, perhaps
even thousand, square milesof coal in
the Middleberg and Ermelo districts ly-
ing between Pretoria and Delagoa Bay.
In the midst of these coal beds is the
outcrop Of iron ore, and running
through them is the lately constructed
railway to Delagoa Bay. With these
vast coalfelds close to first rate port
on the Indian ocean the prospects of the
coal mining industry seem brilliant

The Bicycle Fiend.

"One most obtrusive unpleasantnoss
in the conversation Of the bicycle fiend. /"
observed a anonbicyclist. sis his habit Of
personally appropriating every part and
particle of his machine. Iti apparently
not enough that he should possess the
bicycle in its entirety, but also in de-
tail. My wheel, when uttered two or
three times to every sentence. is bad
enough, but when it comes to my sad
die, my tires, my valves, my ham
die bar and SO forth, the effect is both
irritating and irrational. I once heard
q man discourse for hours upon my in
ner tube Being then not go erudite
upon the thing as am now. I had the
greatest difficulty in determining what
he meant. From the viewpoint Of him
who does not ride, the possessive case is
nowhere SO overworked as in the con-
versation Of the bicycle fiend. New

alembert, tells us in his history of the
Irish race that the schools of ireland
educated and trained a population of
poets, painters, philosophers, historians,
architects and musicians and her
schools were free to all her people," At
that time Ireland was free from the
calling yoke of British tyranny, and
stood erect in vigOr of her national in
dependence, enjoying the fruits of civil
and religious liberty. She alone stands
recorded in the history of the world as
the isle of saints and scholars" and
we should never forget that it came
from the teachings of st. Patrick.
But there came an evil hour when the
pirate of the world selected the virtuous
Ireland for his prey; the poisoned ar
rows of British tyranny and oppression
were pointed at her heart; the accursed
Strongbow landed on her shores, and
from that hour until this, her history
has been written in the destruction OF
her sacred temples, her educational in
situations, he industries, aye, in the
best and purest blood Of her most de-
voted sons and daughters.
Our great American historian, Ban
croft, has well said "The history of
the colonization of America is the his
tory of the crimes of Europe" If Ban
croft is correct, then England stands
before the bar of justice as the arch
criminal of the world, because for 700
years she has labored by every coward
ly and contemplate device conceivable
to the mind of man, to destroy the ma
tional spirit of ireland and scatter her
people as mendioants throughout the
world. No nation in Christendom has
suffered the cruelty, persecution and
death that Ireland has been the victim
of at the hands Of the English govern
ment, and she is no less cruel today
than she was during Cromwelps reign
of determination, when man, woman
and child were put to the sword; no
less cruel today than when Cromwell
butchered three hundred innocent WON.
en- and children in public square in

in the terrible days of 1S47 and 1S4S
when under the present reign of Eng
land the dead bodies of hundreds of
thousands of the Irish race streWed the
highways and byways of their native
land. victims of the terrible death of
starvation, while England responsible
for the laws that left Ireland powerless
to protect her people against the raw
ages of English law and famine,
abounded in plenty, and her nobility
$Nd landlord aristocracy lived in eX-
travagant debauchery. England's cruel
treatment of Ireland has changed only
in method, for what she failed to do by
