Messy was evicted out of her little hold
ing near Clonmel. Her husband had
just died, and she had only her daugh-
ter with her. But there was no COM
passion, and the poor widow woman
was thrown on the roadside. However,
she did not lose heart or sight OF her
little farm, for she kept close eye to
the place, and was assisted by the local
Nationalist. A change of landlords
took place, and, mainly through the
exertions Of Mr.. M. Britain, secretary
of the Lisronagh League; Mr. P.

ing at the reduced rent of f8, the old

bors have rallied to her aid and are
fixing up the house and farm again.

Landing Their lows.

81 CINCINNATI. November 29.-The
wharf this morning was filed with
sight-seers. About a score of steam
ers were moving ABOUT delivering their
large lows at various landings. They
are experiencing great difficulty in
handling their lows, as the channel is
filled with thousands of sawlogs that
broke out of the big timber boom in
the Big Sandy and other rivers. The

ming close to shore going up stream.
At present no accidents have been re-
ported, but the way the drift is coming
down it seems almost inevitable for
them to escape some mishap.
