In 1927. just after Dan Dougherty,
the Irish pugilist, fought his famous
fight with Jem .Belcher, the English
fighter. on the curragh Of Kildare, near
Dublin. he became involved in a con-
troversy with an unknown: The lat
ter was not a pugilist. and. not wishing
to take any advantage of his opponent.
Dougherty consented to fight him with
pistols. The two met by appointment.
but their seconds, unknown to them,
extracted the balls from the pistols
and substituted blank cartridges. BY
the terms Of the agreement between
the principals Dougherty's opponent
was to have the first shot. The natu-
raj instinct prevailed even on the duck
ing ground, and as the fighters oppo.
nent raised his arm to fire Dougherty
elevated his right arm. as If to ward
Of blow, evidently intending to stop
the bullet from hitting him in the face.

Friday, Oh Information OF insanity
filed by her parents. There was no
substantial evidence to SHOW that

not hel ping as she should, b It there,
was no good evidence OF insanity,

This wild west. Of ireland is the nat

This wild west of ireland Is the nat
ura1 home of 'poteen,'' or illicit whis-
ky. This is because the loneliness and
remoteness of the spots chosen for
making it, almost inaccessible through
the mountains and boys save to those
who know something about the coun,
try, are all in favor Of the smugglers
escaping detection, while it's network
of mountain lakes and small running
streams affords the necessary cold wa
ter for condensing the distilled fumes
into spirit during the cooling process.
Dear beyond any parliament whis-
ky''-by which expression he denotes
that sort which has paid the tax impos-
ed by the brutal Saxon government
is this fiery fluid to the heart Of every
true peasant son of Connaught, and
daughter, too, for that matter, for the
fair sex, especially if at all up in years,
takes its fair share. And, in the inter-
est of truth, it must be added that
those who inhabit the coast counties
from Kerry to Donegal, inclusive, are
also fully alive to it's seductive merits.
Indeed, many doctors-local, Of course
will tell you that well made poteen
is better in sickness than the adulter-
ated whisky usually met with in the
small public houses in this region Of
poverty, for in the Connemara country
at any rate the Illicit whisky is made
Of pure malt, though rumor has it that
the less particular palate of Donegal,
for instance. is satisfied with a fire
water mainly made from molasses, po-
tatoes ~ aye, sometimes from almost
any other rubbish you please.-Cham-

! Landmark Burned,

The frame building Oh the corner
of First street and, and First avenue
northeast, one OF the Oldest buildings
in the city was destroyed bv fire
early Saturday morning: Tie build
ing was occupied by Mrs. E $. Smith
as milliner y store and hlso as a
residence by Mr.. aud Mrs. E $.
Smith.
The FIRE evidently caught from the
chimney, as the fire was first seen in
the upper story. 1t burned rapidly
and the family had little time to
save anything. Twoshow cases and
two trunks were taken out.
The department. Was promptly on
hand and did good service in prevent
ing the fire reaching nearby property.
A strong wild was blowing and the
cold was intense. A part Of the
sheds on the south side OF the build
ing was burned.
The water service was irregular,
owing to an accident at the power
station. The pressure was all right
at first, then dwindlei away. Assist
ant Chief Nero was in charge and
sent fireman to the planning mill to
have pr, ssure put on, which was
done. The accident in the power
sta ton was caused by key drop
ping out OF the core wheel on the
shaft that runs the pump. Snpt
Baker had t he wheel in shape again
in ten minutes. The building de-
storyed was owned by Mrs NJ. L
Butler and she carried $500 insur-
arre. Mrs. Smith had $500 insur-
nnce on stock, 500 on fixtures ana
their $500 on household goods.

ton Of Commissioner EVans-His

Grosvenor - Mr. DAILY Takes Up
the Recent Treasury transactions.

The House went into Committee OF the
Whole today to consider the Pension Ap-
preparation bill for the year 1901. and Mr..
Barney briefly explained its provisions The
total amount carried in the bill is S145.-
245.230, an increase Of SlI.5OO over the ap-
propriations for the current year
Although a decrease was expected in The
pension roll growing out Of the civil war.
Mr. Barney said the Commissioner anticl-
pated an increase growing out Of claims
arising in the Spanish war. He had recon-
mended, and the committee had approved,
that the same sum, Sl44.O0O. 600, be ap-
propriated for the payment Of pensions in
1901 as for the current year. The bill pro-
posed no new legislation whatever.
Mr. Talbert enquired if. in the opinion
Of Mr.. Barney it was not now a good
time for Congress 10 stop the pensioning
OF "deserters. conee-coOlers. and bounty
Jumpers Mr.. Barney replied that he was
not in favor Of pensiuning any Of these
classes.
Mr.. Curtis referring % the order OF

ton in his annual message Of that year

ment and be Ead Joined the army Of the

Gated upon The conclusion Of the war
Representative William Alden Smith en-
qUi-ed f the trouble in the administration
OF the bureau might not be due 10 the
presence Of clerks who Were protected IL

Mr. Curtis replied that that might be
true. but that the ComuissiCuer had the
power in his hands 10 right any wrong
arising from that source.
