BEAUTIFUL KILLARNEY.

fractions Thoroughly.
From the London Times.
A certain tourist, who was doing all the
sights of the Holy Land with painful ear
nestness, was scandalized to see an Ameri-
can arrive one afternoon, hurry round all
the sacred places, and make ready to de-
part betimes on the morrow. He yentured
to inquire of this busting traveller why,
having come so far, he rushed away so
quickly. Sir" replied the Yankee, II am
timed to do Europe in fortnight. 1 have
thrown in the Holy Land, and If stay here
longer than one night cannot see Killar-
ney, which takes three days" That Ameri-
can had been we'll advised. Energetic
bustling tourists have endeavored to see all
the beauties of the place in one day, and
though they have been delighted and over
whelmed by what they saw, they have not
been able to restrain pang Of regret at
the thought of what they had missed.
Killarney, If not in itself, at least by
description, Is known the world over and
has a great reputation to maintain; but,
6 unlike no many any other PLACES Of renown 1t
may not prove to be quite as the stranger
anticipated. but the impression he carries
away is none the less one of profound ad-
miration and wonder. The particular
charm which enwraps him is that of the
peaceful loneliness and serenity of the
whole, and this strikes home with increased
conviction after passing by the waterway
from the upper to the lower lake. The
former sheet of water. enveloped as 1t is by
ragged peaks and gloomy, unclothed noun
tains, cannot vie with the lower lake, whose
magnificent stretch of silver waves is
fringed and caressed by foliage and trees
by rich meadows and understanding
blooms. while the rugged outline of the
wild hills is softened by the purple haze.
and space is lost in an infinity of graceful
undulations. The boat ride from the far
edge of the upper lake to the ruins of Ross
Castle Is an experience which cannot be
described. 1t must be enjoyed; and rest
assured it will lnger in the memory to the
last day.

Hearts Grief,

And backward my dark dreams ran,
And the dear dear face before me
To live, somehow, began.
Her lips, around them gathered
a smile. In some wondreus wise,
And tears Of yearning sadness
Stood glistening in her eyes.
And down MY cheeks the tears, too,
Flowed on In uBbidden stream;
And, oh, that I've lost thee, darling,
Seems only wildered dreami

Death Is name. Death is the portal

Into golden cline,
Into the day.

Peace Out I'm the Fields,

From st. Pauls.
The little cares that fretted me
I lost them yesterday
Among the fields above the sea,
Among the winds at play,
Among the lowing of the herds,
The rustling of the trees
Among the singing of the birds,
The humming OF the bees
The foolish fears of what might pasa
/ cast them all away
Among the elo.er-scented grass,
Among the -mown hay,
Among the hushing of the corn
Where drowsy poppies nod,
Where Ill thoughts die apd good are born
Out in the fields OF God

AN APPRECIATEDREFORM
MANY RAILROADS FILLING ALL VA
CANOES BY PROMOTION.
a Receiver for the Chicago & Grand
Trunk Road Is n Rumored Proba-
biIity-Other Railway News.

With the leading roads the filling Of va
cancies by promotion of men in the service
has become general. The Pennsylvania was
the first TO introduce this method of show
ing its appreciation of faithful and compe-
tent men, and the movement at first was
of slow growth. as many OF the roads had
not exercised proper care in the selection
of men, but of late years this matter has
received much attention, and at present
none of the frst-class roads will give en-
ployment to men unfit to serve in a higher
position il opportunity offered. Especially
in the selection of clerks and trainmen are
these qualifications looked closely after; in
fact, the Pennsylvania lines will not employ
any man for any position unless he first
passes a rigid examination to health.
habits, etc. The Big Four, the Lake Shore,
the Baltimore & Ohio. the New York Cen
trail and all the Northwestern trunk lines
now exercise great care In selecting men
to I'LL even minor positions where the per-
son stands any chance OF promotion. A gem
eral superintendent said that, from what
the men had said regarding the plan, he
was convinced they appreciated the reform,
and certainly the roads and the travelling
public were benefited oy such method of
EMPLOYING men.

1t was announced unofficialy yesterday
pointed as president of the city Board of
Health and that this decision had been ar
rived at by the mayor after conference
with DR.. Morrison at the Grand Hotel Tues
day night.
For some time past II has been limited
that Dr. Morrison would be retained on
the board, but Mayor Taggart would not
state that the appointment had been de-
cided on. The appointment is looked on
as an indication that DR.. Clark, the city
sanitarian, will be retained.
When seen regarding the appointment DR..
Morrison expressed surprise that such a
report had been circulated and begged to
be excused from discussing the matter. He
said, however, that he considered the ap-
pointment of q city chemist an absolute
necessity.

enforcement of the new food laws 1t is
necessary that some one be appointed by
the city to make such analyses as are re-

GIRL GETS THE PIANO.
Judge Allen, However, Had to Ponder
Over a KnOtty Legal Point.

Judge Allen found rather unique legal
yesterday all the parties to the suit being
colored. The plaintiff was George Davis,
and he sued his daughter, the wife of
young man named Brown, for possession of
piano. Davis formerly lived in. Texas and
was married while there. He married a
widow whose home was In Indianapolis,
but who went to Texas at the request of
Davis. The woman had one daughter by
former husband. About fifteen years ago
the Davis family moved to indianapolis
from Texas and have lived here since The
evidence developed that at the time of the
marriage the daughter possessed a ca binet
organ which the mother had purchased for
her. After the marriage the daughter ex-
was traded for one. The piano was not of
the most fashionable sort, and when the
young woman became a few years older the
instrument was traded off for upright
piano. About year ago the daughter mar
ried and after the marriage dissension
he did not want his daughter to have the
piano, reasoning that 1t rightfully belonged
10 him.
Then he brought suit to replevin the
instrument, and il was resisted. The point
which the court had to decide was just how
it was acquired as the result of a series
of trades. 1t was pointed out that the
mother of the girl bought the organ for
her, and hence Davis had no interest in
this part of the deal. Judge Allen. after
wrestling with the problem a while, decided
that the girl was entitled to keep the piano,
as II had been purchased for her and was
always considered her property.

to restore to the basis Of normal tariffs the
long-demoralized passenger rates between
this city and st. Paul. The restoration will
be made on the Goth of this month, when
the rate to the Minnesota capital, which
now is $780, will be $11 so. The trouble was
begun early last spring, when the Great
Western, the Wisconsin Central and the

in noticeable degree until last September,
when a Chicago-Kansas City line an
nounced rate of SO to Kansas City. The
announcement started the rates down grade
in such manner as to startle all Western
roads. Sept. 20 an open cut Of $50 to st.
Paul was made and short time later that
rate was made good at either end of the
line.

Action on q Street Rescinded-The
Bridge Bids Considered.
The Board Of Works met yesterday morn
ing and heard a remonstrance made by 1.
n. Richie against the opening Of Caldwell
street from Walnut street to Tenth street.
He said that the proposed street would run
through a big cornfield owned by him and
no one would be benefited at this time by
the opening Of a street there, so the board
rescinded action.
The board did not settle the bridge bids,
but deferred action on them to a future
date. On account of the alleged collision
is Of such big Importance the board viii
not rush this matter without investigating
the bids. There is also a lack Of funds in
the bridge department to permit of the
building of two bridges at this time. and
If the board takes any action at the meet
ing Tomorrow but one contract will be let.
The contracts are higher than the board
figured upon apd the sl00.000 borrowed for
the work Is not sufficient for both struc-
lures.

No Divorces by Agreement.

In the case of William Miner, who APP
Piled to have divorce judgment granted
by his wife set aside, on the ground that
there had been an agreement between t4iem
that he should not be required TO give her
any allmony in case he did not contest the
SUIT, Judge Allen refused 10 set aside the
judgment, alleging that such an agreement
was void, since the law did not recognize the
right of parties to obtain divorces by agree
ment He directed that Miner be compelled
to pay his wife 800 alimony and so attor-
