its great laugh-provoking opportuni-
ties is this year being given with every
attribute that characterized it's success

the gallery "god" falls into line and
endeavors to initiate her style and ac-
cent. Kittie Nelson with her artistic
rendering of pathetic ballads and up
to-date songs. Harry Watson, the
comedy bicycle tramp, and little Bobby
Ralston, that funny little dwarf, one of
the drollest and most unctuous comedi-

large number Of young and dashing
farce comedy girls with forms and
voices unexcelled and who are always
welcome adjuncts to farce comedy.

HON. JOHN F. FINERTY,
Who Will Orate in Minneapolis on
St. Patrick'S Day.

The following write-up OF John F. Fin
erty, which appeared in recent issue
OF the Northwestern Catholic, of Sioux
City, Iowa, from the eloquent pen OF
John Brennan, will be read with inter-
est by those who can have an oppor-
tunity OF hearing him on The Story
OF Ireland" at the Exposition building
i'll this city OH the evening of March II:
He is living representative of the
cfeitains; a man OF giant stature, OF
heroic mould, who breathes the spirit OF
the quenchless fire OF nationality, and
who never for day desisted from some
sort OF warfare on the enemy. OF him
it may be said, as was said OF St. Paul,
that he "has fought the good fight;
that he has kept the faith" From the
hopeful hour in the early sixties, when
he cast his lot with the Irish national
cause at the foot OF Sliev-na-van, to the
hour i'll which he lives, he has labored
with zeal to promote feelings of love,
harmony and kindly forbearance among
all the children OF his race; to preserve
the spirit and renew the hope in an
irrepressible conflict and a deathless
cause. He is one of the few leaders Of
teniahism who still is in the prime Of
active manhood. He has seen the
lights and shades OF public life in
America. He has enjoyed the honor
OF seat in congress and other honors
innumerable. He has also undoubtedly
experienced the stings and arrows OF
ingratitude from the hands of those
whom he so unselfshly served; but he
has never bent to base compliance with
any form of surrender or dishonor, and
never retracted, repented or apologized
for the faith that is in him for any
consideration of personal advantage
IT'S for this that he is respected even
by the enemies of his cause and is idol
lied by those who have known him and
loved him from his youth He is a
magnificent figure, among the most pic
turesque and heroic of Irishmen in pub
lie life; and we sincerely hope that the
American Irish will appear in force on
the occasion of his presence here and
do him proper honor.

The Beers, Marse,la,s-

Ye Transvaal patriots, rise victorious!
For Truth and Justice firmly stand.
God is your shield, your cause ever
glorious,
The Freeman's hope in every land!
Long have we pleaded, your wrongs
recalling,
But Freedom leads an ever valiant
band,
With sword OF victory in hand,
A hireling host before them falling!
Chorus:
Arise, We friends OF truth,
Grid on the sword of right,
Work on! Pray on! All hearts resolved,
To conquer in its might.
Hail. Libcrty thy sons are waking!
To break the chain that binds thee
down.
Grccd's lawlcss tyrants' thrones are
shaking.
Law, Love and Peace await their
CROWN
No more let knavcs and dcspots name
thee
To hide their shame and inllumanity;
For truth and right are liberty,
And naught but justice can reveal
thee.

Mrs. Triclardt, wife of the Artillery
Commandant, has presented the Bri-
gadc with another Irish flag.
On the day after the victory OF Nikol-
sons Mex, General Joubcrt addressed
the Irish Brigadicrs in short speech,
telling them that the valor they had dis
played had won them the eternal admir-
alton OF the Boer people, who would
never forget either the manner in which
the Irishmcn had rallied to the defence
Of the Republics, nor the gallantry
which they had everywhere displayed.
The General was enthusiastically
chccrcd by the Brigade.
Down to the 24tl OF November, the
total casualties in the Brigade were two
killed, nine wounded, and four taken
prisoners. 1t is stated that three OF the
prisoners have been murdered by the
English In the event OF the statement
being verified the Brigadicrs have
bound themselves to exact revenge
A tragedy has been enacted 5000
miles away from Ireland the details Of
which, for the present, we are Obliged
to withhold from our readers. Irish
men have been shot like dogs i'll MAIZE

The Cape papers contain the account
OF the execution OF James Quinlan, the
Staton-mastcr of Maicking, by the

every Irishman in Africa rs that OF
brave, generous, enthusiastic lover OF
his country. 1t will be known to every
Irish Nationalist throughout the world
before a month is past.

Books That Make a Blaze.
Editor OF the Irish Standard:

Editor OF the Irish Standards:
A very small sin it is to have no pa
thence with much that is urged on en-
couraging the study of Irish history, or
on reading good books, or on spread
ing Catholic truth. For lots of the
stuff that it is intended thereby to
boost is no good at ALL A little cate
chism of Irish history which I read
when a boy gave me fever of patriot
ism. Later Haverty's heavy, dreary
book made me almost curse God for
having made such country as Ireland
to furnish the matter for such book
But later still I made the acquaintance
OF certain other books on Irish history,
and these have ever since made me
praise and thank the Lord for the little
island that could show such a writer
and that furnished him his theme.
These books were John Mitcllel's Gail
Journal" and "Last Conquest OF Ire
land, Perhaps" The latter is Mitchel's
account of the men and the rising OF
'4S, of which he was so great a part,
and it really is his masterpiece. The
Jail Journal" is its sequel, record, notes
and reflections which Mitchell amused
himself with jotting down from the day
he was committed to Mountjoy prison,
and on through his transportation to
Van Diemen's Land till his safe arrival
in San Francisco.
Persons that almost any other book
on Ireland would bore, or set asleep,
will read these books of Mitchel's with
feverish interest, and reread them, and
talk about and recommend them, and
will be forever inoculated with Nit
chefs own views and feelings about
Great Britain and its civilization and
services to the world. Mitchers books
would make Fenian of Mckinley.
Mitchel's introduction to the "Jaii
Journal is the best present-day docu-
ment for Catholic truth, the best aid to
the conversion of America. Its arraign-
ment of England's policy and doings is
able to disillusionize the most bewitched
enthusiasts of their pride in Anglo
Saxonism. 1t makes the British religion
and British afinities, and British every
thing thing to be ashamed of, and
hostile to, instead of proud Of. 1t is the
best specific for the prevalent aggressive
Anglomania.
Hitherto these books, masterpieces OF
John Mitchell, were out of print and
practically out of reach. OF late years
at last the Gail Journal" began to ap-
pear in the catalogue of New York
bookseller, but if you wanted the book
you might have to wait until you could
be asked if you wanted it ordered from
Europe, and then until it had been or
dered, and mailed first to New York
and then to you. And then besides all
the waiting, and postage, it would cost
you forty cents net. This rate OF
things I could stand no longer, and got
to begin with 1000 copies of the Gail
Journal" and 1000 of "The Last Con-
quest which, while they last, sell at
rs cents the copy in quantities, or mail
anywhere for 80 cents in dimes or
stamps. MARTIN MAHONY.

The process began very long ago.
