Citizenship MEANS ACTIVITY
Extreme Vigilance" Said Rev.
Birmingham in an Eloquent
Lecture Yesterday.
EVERY CATHOLIC WAS A WHIG
He Said That No Class of Citizens
Had Been More Loyal to the
Cause of Constitutional Lib
erty in America Than the
Children OF Erin.

"Irish Loyalty to American Liberty"
was the subject of most eloquent lec-
ture delivered by Rev. w. J. Bermng-
ham in the school hall of st. Joseph's
K Catholic Church on the Brandywine
Yesterday afternoon. The church hall
was crowded. A musical program was
rendered by an orchestra. John A. Fin
y negan sang "Why Did They Sell Xii

sFisher rendered mandolin solo, and
qnintette composed of Eta Conway,
sOlive Hartlove, Josephine Egle, James
Harkins and james Corregan sang
"Come Back to Erin"
Father Birmingham said in part:
"From the very cradle OF the human
race, the career OF arms has ever exrrted
a powerful fascination The clash OF
spears, the car cries of charging hosts,
! the cheer OF victory, the walls OF delea
haye all been borne down the vale OF
time, but to find their exact counterpart
in this our modern world.
Each age. each nation, has had its
men OF mighty deeds and around them
facts have woven glistening gems oi
words, tho brilliant settings oil priceless
jewels. They died yet are undying
mouldered into dust. yet are immortal.
Fame may have Stunned them while
living, but it comes and nestles on theiI
graves and sings their praises until gen.
erations then unborn catch up and re-
peat the melody. Thus the present sits
at the knee OF past, listens to songs OF
deathless deeds till lethargy is swepI
away and heroic resolve sits majestic il
the halls of memory. Thus hero worship
is perpetuated and innate love OF native
land is transformed from passive to al
! active principle. Thus one great battle
one daring feat forms theme for The
lay that will not die, the canvas tha
will not rot, the statue that will with
stand the gnawings of the tooth of time
Worth makes the man and nndyinl

died. At Perryville Mr.. Tinges sent a
telegram to DIR. II. j. Stubbs to meet
him at the depot. DIR. Stubbs was at the

seemed BETTER"
Mr.. Tinges has never fully recovered
his health since the severe attack of
pneumonia which he suffered about two

GENERAL WHEELER'S REPORT.
Guam; It's Area; Its Population and
lis Productions.
TOWNS NEAT AND COMPLETE.

Washington. April General
Wheeler has submitted to the navy de
pareFnent a report upon his observations
and impressions of the island OF Guam
He says the area of the island is about
$50 square miles, of which one-ha1f is
susceptible to cultivation. although
only one per cent Is now under cultiva-
ton. The population is fixed at about
30, 900 souls, nearly all of whom reside
ia the towns The soil is very fertile
and fruits and staples are produced in
quantity. the cocoanut trees especially
having an appearance of thrift and
bearing power superior to any seen be
fore in the tropics. The dug dug and
other bread fruit trees grow to an
enormous size on the islands.
Deer and wild goats are found in
abundance. Flying foxes are numerous
and form one of the principal staples
of food Centipedes, wasps, large
spiders and a species of small scorpion
are common, but their bite or sting is
not dangerous. There are no tarantu-
las and no snakes.
The principal and in fact the only in
dustry of any consequence in Guam is
the production and expectation of
copra, the product in England selling
for SIS ton. The towns of the island
ton of them being built of stone, and
the rest of nipa and bamboo. The
roads, with few exceptions, become
very bad in the wet season, but as all
the towns on the coast, sea travel
is always available. There is very little
money the island and wages are
low.
The temperature is mild, and much
cooler than that of the Philippines, al
though the inhabit ants declare the heat
in August and September is almost
suffocating. The rainfall is very heavy,
and dry days are few.
The people are very friendly and
whole have regular features and erect
forms
TO the drinking water the island
Is attributed a great amount of sick
ness among others than natives, and a
plant for distilling water has been
erected at Agana, the principal town
