An Iri.hman.s Chiralry.

William Smith O'Brien, the leader OF
the National party OF ireland. who was
transported Ia 1s49 had none of the
gifts which attract the multitude. He
was not an orator, his manners were
not winning. and he made few intima.
cles.
But his character and his well-poised
head put him at the head of the Nation
allsts. whose purpose was to secure the
independence OF Ireland. An anecdote
related ia Sir Charles Gayan Duffy's
book OF "reminiscences. My Life in Two
Hemispheres, shows the chiyalry OF
The man.
He had a duel. In the days when that
savage method Of settling disputes was
the custom, and the two men were plac-
ed opposite TO each other
Just as the signal "one, two, three

Christening BattIeships.

II is not believed that the origin OF
christening the warship was due to an
act of irreverence as a mock baptism,
but that its earliest inception was the
human sacrifice. then the libations of
wine of Greece and the north, and, with
the spread of the Christian religion, the
blessing of the battleship, IA custom OBJ
served today in all Roman Catholic
countries. The object was the same in
both the pagan aud Christian rites TO

school suffrage TO widows. In 1861
Kansas gave it to all women. In 1869
England gave municipal suffrage to
single women and widows. and Wyo.
ming gave full suffrage to all women.

Michigan and Minnesota, in 1876 by
Colorado, in 1878 by New Hampshire
