NEWS FROM IRELAND
IT'S Summer in ireland.

TITS summer in Ireland now; and l
know where the glens are green,
And the tall, lush grass is cleaning
with dew in the morning sheen;
I can hear the skylark singing, and
the cuckoo's passing call;
can see the blue sky cloudless, and
the sunshine over all.
Well know how the breeze is sigh
ing through the woods of Dun
ganstown,
Aid the nutty breath of the furze-
bloom from the hill comes sweep
II. ing down;
can tell where the woodbine's creep
ing 'mong the hedges near my
- home;
And 1 know (ah, pain of exileD that
it's far from there I roam.
Oh, the autter of joyous wings through
the briers in the old boreen.
And the mellow song of the blacllbird
hid in the hazel screen;
The softer pipe Of the linnet, the gray
hawks angry scream;
And the CHEEKY sound of that "whoo-
up" as the plowman calls to his
team.
Noontide! Now the cattle blinking in
the pastures browse and dream;
Or, under the bridge, in the shadow,
stand up knee-deep in the stream.
Did you hear that maybe screechinA
as lazily past she aew?
The worst of luck! One maybe! God
save us! But-tAere are two.
Away with these sweet decisions, fond
heart of mine, 1 say!
Do you deem that these foolish fancies
are honest work for the day?
Take up that pick, We brown hands;
there's gold meath this mountains
loan,
And, be sure, as your blows swing
downwards, that we're picking
our way to home.

"A Oluuly -1lSulCu YOU'LL,
Where the freight shadows flicker
And dance in the deepening gloom,
An aged figure seated before the en-
bers bright,
While the daylight is slowly fading
And darkening into night.
"A boy and a girl are standing
With dreamy, thoughtful eyes,
Watching the sparks fly upward
Into the azure skies
While grandmother from the shadows
Is speaking soft and low,
OF her home in dear old ireland
And the happy long ago.
Where in the golden summer
On the threshold of life she stood,
A winsome, fair-ha;red colleen
With bright dreams Of maidenhood,
AS bright as the sky above her,
Her own loved Irish sky,
Or the dew on the flowers sparkling,
Or the lark that sang on high.
When she wore on her breast the
shamrock
AS she danced to the piper's tune,
Or sang some ancient ballad
While glorious rose the moon,
Or laughed till the silent echoes
Answered back the laughing call,
From some Uncovered castle
Or ruined abbey wall.
Oh, grandmother, then how happy
Those peaceful days were spent,
How patient DER each new duty
With joyous, sweet content.
When trouble came upon you
You bowed to Gods holy will,
And when the clouds were darkest
You loved and praised Him still.
For at last came day of parting
From all you loved SO dear,
When you said farewell to the EN-
erald Isle
With many a bitter tear.
You came, great ship bore you
Afar to this distant shore,
Bringing with you sweetest memories
OF home you would see no more.
And oft by the glowing embers,
While the shadows gathered round,
You told us tales of that fairyland
Where the shamrock green is found.
And tonight am dreaming, dreaming,
While safe from your home above
You smile while I dream of the dear
old land
You taught me first to love.

On Aug. II the funeral took place Of
Mrs. Ellen Moynihan, Tylough. The
deceased lady belonged to a well
known and highly respected family,
was favorite with all who knew her,
and her popularity was attested by
the vast funeral cortege which as
sembled in the vicinity Of her late
home at Tylough. Rarely, if ever, did
such a funeral pass through the town
of Tralee. The cars alone extended to
n distance of about two miles. The
deceased was the mother Of the we'll
known Gael, Mr.. Maurice Moynihan
The interment took place in the an
Gent churchyard at Clogherbrien.

Miss A. M. Kenny, the popular and

returned to Castlecomer, after making
a long tour on the continent.
LIMERICK.
On Aug. 16, amidst every possible
manifestation of sincere sorrow, there
were laid to rest the remains of Rev.
John Walsh, who for close on a quar-
ter Of century had ministered among
the people of Ardagh and Carrickerry.
The name of Father Walsh will long
be known in connection with the he
roic stand he made when the plan Of
campaign was instituted on the Glens-
harold estate. Deceased, with Father
Ambrose, now Of Bruff, stood between
the oppressor and the oppressed. The
deceased was true type of the Irish
soggarth, and went down to the grave
lamented and regretted by all who
| knew him.
