Says John Brennan in the Northwest
ern Catholic: Citizen Ireland is still
great American, but it might be just as
we'll that the English should know and
that President Mckinley should know
that John Ireland of St. Paul in his
London mission does not represent the
spirit of American Catholics or the
principles of Irish-Americans. Among
American Catholics, as to the bloody
drama now progressing in the Philip
pines, there is no divided opinion. Nor
can the voice of an archbishop, nor even
the voice of the successor of St. Peter,
if the venerable Pontiff should lend
himself to such base uses, convince
them that the murder and outrage of
their Catholic brethren in the Philip
pine islands is triumph of civilization
or crusade in harmony with the prin-
ciples of this great government.

That Catholics are not forbidden Ito
search the Scriptures" and read them
in devotional spirit is evidenced by
the fact that the late Augustine DAILY,
theatrical manager, was the possesssor
of Catholic Bible composed OF forty
two volumes, illustrated with over 5000
plates, selected by himself at cost OF
$4,000.

Secretary Alger, OF embalmed beef
fame, has finally rendered his resigna-
ton, though he frequently asserted that
he would never retire under fire. Sec
rotary Hay, the Anglomaniac, should
follow the example of the Michigander
by handing in his resignation before he
involves the country in another war for
the benefit OF England.

Martin E. Tew, military correspond
ent Of the Minneapolis Times, says in
his letter from the Philippines: Those
who believed that the natives in the
country districts were wild and UNTIL
tored savages have been most agreeably
surprised. The Tagalogs of central Luz
zon are by no means barbarian people,
even though their feet are uncovered
and their right to bear arms has not
been infringed. The Pampangese, or
the natives of Pampanga province, are
more refined in appearance, larger in
stature and more intelligent than their
southern neighbors, the Tagalogs, and
speak a different dialect. Every town
has its church and school, and in almost
every house the soldiers found books,
well written letters and other evidences
of intelligence and education.

The servants OF course only laughed at
John, but the king, hearing of him. ordered
him to be brought UP. And when John was
brought up into the prencess' bed chamber,
there that place was filled with great doctors
and when they heard job was coming to
try to cure the prencess they laughed
heartily. But the king said they had their
try and made nothing OF 1t and that John
Conn might as we'll get his try, for he
couldn't have worse luck than them any
how. Then John ordered all the doctors out
Of the room, and, giving the prencess one
bottle OF the water, she got great aise en-
tirely, then he gave her another bottle and
she felt a deal better still; then he gave
her the third bottle and she was completely
cured. There was great replacement entirely
at this and the king in particular was beside
himself with delight and offered John Conn
the prencess in marriage. But John
wouldn't have her on no account for he
said he wouldn't part his wife Molly at
home for all the Processes in the world, no
matter how beautiful they might be. Then
the king filled two bags, one with goold and
the other with silver, and give them to
John. When John got outside the castle he
handed the two bags to Hugh and told him
to take them home with him and give
his (John's) wife the bag Of goold and
keep the bag OF silver for himself, and that

eating and drinking spread out on the tables.
Come, help ourselves" says John, well
line our sides. anyhow" "A good job"
says Hugh and both OF them fell to and
made a hearty meal. Then all at once
they heard music and the tramping of feet
coming tow'st them. Wen have to hide"
says John. and II think it's best says
Hugh. So both of them took and hid them
selves under a sofa, where they couldn't be
seen. Hugh wasn't right under the sofa
when he was fast asleep by reason of the
big dinner he ate. But John kept wide
awake and peeping out through a little hole
In the sofa cloth could see all that was go
ing on. Into the room came a company of
300 fairies, little men and women, all Rrandly
dressed in every color OF silks and satins
and ribbons, with forty little pipers playing
before them, and they dancing along behind
with their hands caught. When they come

the 400, 900 troopers he axed himself how
was he going 10 get them fed at all, at all.
And" says he, "if I only had the napkin
now to feed them I'll be a happy man." At
once he ordered the troopers out Of the
horn and they came tumbling out, light
Dragons, heavy Dragons, russians, grena-
diers and kilties, and away he sent them
after the piper to take the napkin from
him. And when they brought John the nap
kin he put the wishing cap on his head and
wished to be home. And when he got there
and looked about him he couldn't know it
was the same country at all, at all. for
there, in the place where Hugh Flynn's
house used to be, was a great castle, with
gardens and lawns and parks all around it.
He came up to the door of his own house
and Molly was the glad woman to see him
back. "And what" says he to Molly, sis
the meanin' of that great castle where
Hugh Flynn's cabin used to be-" co."
says Molly, says she, "sure Hugh Flynn
was away, no one knows where, pushing
his fortune, and he come home with no end
of bags Of money with him and had up that
grand castle and all them parks and lawns
before ye'd have time to look about We.
He's now very rich entirely and, people
says, doesn't know his own wealth." "And,
Molly" says John, was he any way kind
to you when he com back with so much
money, or did he make we ever a present."
"Kind?" says Molly; kinds no name for
1t. He give me 8 shillings the day afther he
come home and has ordered me an allow
ance of half-a-crown a week ever SINCE
Says John, II must set off to see him." 90.
no, ahasky, john" says Molly, I'VE couldn't
go to see him in them old clothes, or he'd
ordher ye to be shot" But John set
off to Hugh Flynn's castle and when
be was come there he inquired OF the
servants to see Lord Flynn. But they told
him they couldn't let him into his lord
ships presence at ell, at all, in such old
clothes as he had on him. But Lord Flynn
heard that John Conn was at the door
wanting to get in to see him, and he or
Omaha daily bee., 1899-08-20

dered the servants to let him in and bring
him upstairs to him.. He shocks hands
heartily with John, and said he was glad
to see him home again. John thanked him,
and said his wife, Molly, was telling him
that he had been very good to her, and
he thanked him entirely for this. Then
Lord Flynn said he was going to give a
great ball, and to show he had no i'll will
against John, axed himself and his wife to
come to 1t. John and Molly attended the
ball. and then axed Lord Flynn and his
wife to come to their house to a ball next
night. When John got home says Molly to
him, John, do ye intend entertaining Lord
Flynn and his wife? Sure, we haven't a
proper house to take them to; nor we have
no money to buy provisions to ENTERTAIN
them properly" 20, we'll soon rightly
that" says John. He took out the purse
and covered the floor with gold and filled
up a room full OF 1t. He then ordered out
his 400, 900 troopers out Of the horn and set
them to work building a grand castle, and
before the next night he had the castle
up and all its walls lined with silver and
its floors OF beaten goold, and he had a
goold walk right from the door OF it to
Lord Flynn's castle. And when Lord Flynn
and his wife come they were all in won
dherment and didn't know what to make OF
1t all. And John Conn and Molly welcomed
them, and they dressed up in the most gor-
JUS dresses, and Molly with two diamonds
hanging from her ears, the size of
turf, Then there was no end of
sarvints in waiting, and the napkin
was spread, and John wished for
the grandest supper that ever was, and i'm
mediately the grandest that ever was seen
afore or since was before them. And when
Lord Flynn got home he sent a messenger
TO the king to tell him of the wonderful nap
kin John Conn had, and that 1t would be OF
great service TO the king in times of war,
and axed the king to send his sojers for 1t.
So The king sent thirty sojers TO demand the
napkin OF John. but John turned out sixty
sojers out of his horn, who fell on the kings
sojers and killed them all but one, who went
and told the king. Then the king sent
10, 900 troopers, but John turned so, 900 troop
ers out OF the horn and killed all the kings
men TO one again. Then the king sent 1OO,-
300 troopers, and John now turned out of
horn 100000 troopers-light dhragoons,
heavy dhragoons, russians, grenadiers and
.zilties, and they fell on the kings men and
not one OF them at all, at all, escaped this
time. Then the king come to parley with
John, and he made PAIGE with him and said
I was Lord Flynn who had told him about
he napkin, and put up TO taking II from
Ohm. So John once again turned out his
.roOpers-light dhragoons, heavy dragons,
russians, grenadiers and kilties-and or
ihered them up TO Lord Flynn's to blow up
lis castle and not lave a trace OF him or his
