President Maurice f. Holahan of the
Board of Public Improvements was
also enthusiastic over the idea of max
ing a national Irish park of the lakes

John + Carroll had this to say on the
subject: You may count me in on that
scheme from the beginning 1 consider
it a very broad-minded idea and one
which can only result in good to all
Irishmen and Irish Americans We
should take steps at once to acquire
the property and waters and to pre-
serve them as they now are-one of the
wonders of the world. l will willingly
subscribe any fair amount to insure
the perpetuation of Killarney"
John D. Crimmins thought a Killar-
ney national park a feasible scheme
when 1 called on him last night He
thought there was a wide field here yet
however, for the betterment of Irish
men. but he said he thought the plan
would result in bringing the needs of
the Emerald Isle closer to the hearts of
other nations.

Special Dispatch to The Call

SAN RAFAEL, June 6.-The record
of Carson Canyon for murder myster-
les, already as dark as the shadows
lurking in its gloomy depths has been
increased by the addition OF what is
believed to be another terrible crime.
Peter Lorraine. woodchopper, is
missing under circumstances pointing
to foul play and the finger of sus-
picion points so Enthusiastically at a
companion named James DER. that he
was arrested to-day, brought to this
city and placed in confinement by Sher-
iff Taylor
Lorraine was a Frenchman. aged
about 50 years, who had been employed
by John Enos for the past twelve
months. Enos lives in Carson Canyon,
which is situated near Lake Lagunitas,
ten miles from San Rafael. Down it
sweeps the Lagunitas Creek. which
unites with the San Geronimo near the
mouth of the canyon to form Paper
Mill Creek. Dier has been in Enos
employ for about two years, and is
about 45 years old. Both woodchoppers
lived in the same cabin their rooms
being separated by partition. Ever
since Lorraine, commonly called
French Pete, went to work in Car
son Canyon he and DER have been on
bad terms and quarreled frequently
Their companions lived in constant
dread of seeing human blood spilled on
account of the fact that the natures
Of both men were savage and intract-
able, and their records while in Enos'
employ have been far from savOry.

thusiastic over the proposition to pur-
chase Killarney by popular subscrip-
ton.
\ correspondent of the Dublin Free
man writing TO that journal says:
In a few weeks the Muckross estate.
which includes the greater part of the
land and water making up the beautiful
scenes of Killarney, will be offered for
sale. l have the strongest reason for be-
lieving that syndicate has been formed
for the purpose of buying the Muckross
estate and working the lakes at a profit.
The syndicate believes that by cutting
down the fine woods on Tore Mountain a
large immediate return would be obtained.
Valuable wood also exists in other parts
of the demesne.
1t IS proposed to utilize the water power
of Tore waterfall by converting it by a
ing the same to Muckross House. which
is to be used as factory for extracting
the valuable chemical compound, carbide
of calcium, from the limestone with which
the estate and the country around
abounds. There is a large sale of the
calcium carbide for the manufacture of
acetylene gas. II is believed that further
electrical energy can be obtained from
the flow of the waters from the upper
lake.
Efforts will be made to acquire Innis-
fallen Island for the purpose Of laying ii
out as a tea garden probably with negro
minstrels, merry -go-rounds and other
amusements, such prevail in similar
places on the English coasts Dnis ISL
and will be similarly treated.
Steam launches will be placed on the
lower lake and will make the rounds of
the lake every half hour
1t is believed that a large additional
revenue can be obtained by the company
from substantial increase in the tolls
1t is proposed to charge two shillings for
passing from the gap to the lakes, one
shilling for admission to the Tore water
fall, two shillings for admission to Muck
ross abbey-thus doubling the present
charges-and two shillngs for every boat
passing up under Brickeen bridge, the re-
turn journey to be free.
AS the whole of MuckroSs Lake will
pass TO the syndicate. one idea which is
at present under consideration is to fl
out a f1otilla of boats and allow no Others
to pass through the lake. 1t is also pro.
posed to fit out a small electric tramway
to make the rounds of the Muckross
! demesne. to which no ordinary cars viii
be admitted. A funicular railway will bt
erected to the summit of Tore and fire.
