THE IRISH BRIGADE.
Michael Davitt Defends II from CAL
umniatQrS.

The following letter, dated Oakley,
July S, appears in the weekly Free
man" of Dublin:
Dear Sir.-That the Irish and Irish
Americans who formed brigade at the
outbreak of the war, and volunteered to
fight for the Transvaal Republic, should
earn the enmity of the London "Times"
and of the equally venomous Edinburgh
Scotsman" is matter of no surprise
The surprise would be if the usual cal
umnies were not employed on this oc-
casion by these malignant libellers Of
all Irishmen who refuse to become the
slavish upholders of English rule. Cal
jimmy is the favourite weapon of Brit
ish political controversy, whether the
object of attack for the time being is
either George Washington, an O'Con-
nell, or even a Gladstone. AS Hosea
Biglow we'll expressed it
cts you're TIL sinner oilers, she's the
saint;
Wut's goods all English, all that isn't,
amt"
The men of the Irish Brigade are not
saints, but how do they compare with
"the flower of the British army?"
1. They do not fight for pay. They
have volunteered to fight for a govern
ment which they knew to be unjustly
attacked. Not single British soldier
fights fol. England without pay. In ad-
dition to this soldering wage, various
funds have been raised as an additional
means OF rewarding Lord Roberts 2oo,-
600 men.

NEWS FROM IRELAND
Nowhep Like Kerry.

Nowher Like Kerry.
Oh, it is not here, but in Kerry, the
roots of my heart are set,
And it is not here, but in Kerry, the
dreams OF my life are yet;
Kerry I left behind me in narrowing
CLEAN OF light,
When I said goodbye to the dear old
land and passed out into the night.
The sun had gone down from the leay-
ems, the birds flown home to their
nest,
A wind walled out of the darkness, a
rain cloud hung in the west;
There was no glimmer OF brightness, no
4 shining on earth or sky,
When l sailed away from you, Kerry,
with the best of my years gone by.
Oh, there is no place like Kerry in all
the world I've seen,
Nowhere has faircr valleys, nowhere has
hills SO green;
Nowhere the word of friendship is given
with franker grace
Than there, in the core of Munster, with
the true hearts blood OF our race.
Ochone! ochone! for you, Kerry! If
wishes were sails and ships,
IT'S would be sailing onward towards
you with cries of Joy on my lips;
Racing the white waves by me, and
watching by night and morn
For a first glad sight of the kindly land
where and my race were born.
And, safe on the soil of Kerry, perhaps
I could weep the tears
That have gathered about my heart
strings in all these sorrowful years,
While draining the bitter life cup God
filled for me to the brim
Since left the grave of my Conner
and our two boys laid by him.
Praised be the Lord forever! He has
taken my all in life
My boys who were tall and handsome,
the husband who called me wife:
The home 1 was born and bred in, the
friends who were good and true,
And left behind in the darkness the
dreams of my youth and you.
But I'll go home to you, Kerry; the God
who has sent my pain
Will send me the healing of it in seeing
your face again;
And there, by the boys and Connor, I'll
find rest for my feet,
Nor ever be sick or lonely again till
death makes the list complete.
My hands are so tired of toiling always
on the strangers floor,
There are no smiles on the faces that
look from the strangers door;
The poor of the earth's not wanted ex-
cept by the poor l know,
And my loves are buried in Kerry with
the joys of long ago.
And for these do love ye, Kerry, OF
kindred and home bereft,
/. Old moments dear as my life to me,
and the scenes of the past are left:
When the winds are freighted with sea
songs and misty with drifted spray.
And the strangers met with friendly
word in Kerry SO far away.
oh, there are tile wee white daisies half
hidden in waving grass,
And the saucy cowslips dancing in all
the airs that pass;
Red peoples Aaunt their banners in the
golden depth of the wheat,
And oh! but the cool green earth were
good under my weary feet.
Sure I am haunted forever with dreams
of my native land,
My soul is sick for loving word and
the grasp of a loving hand;
oh, Kerry of silver waters, Kerry of
mountains tall,
In all the world I've journeycd round
there is nowhere 1ike you at all.

BANKS MONEY. is GONE
ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
MISSING WHEN VAULT WAS
OPENED By OFFICIALS
BELIEVED ROBBERS GOT IT
Building Burned Last Friday Night,
and Officials Knew Money Was
in Vault at Close of
business.

HURON, S. D., March 12.-(Special "a
sensation of large proportions followed
the opening of the big vault of the Hitch
cock bank today. The bank and builo
ing were destroyed by fire last Fri
day night and no alarm was felt by the
bank officers on account of their knowl-
edge that the fire and burglar-proof vault
contained over LOGO at the close OF
business on Friday
The big vault was opened today In the
presence of the officials Of the institution
and the money was not there, although
other articles were preserved intact.
Cashier Wilson wired for money at
once and the deposItors will be paid
without difficulty. what puzzles the
bank officials is the loss of the S11 0cO.
The only explanation offered is that the
money was taken from the vault before
the fire, which was supposed to have
been caused by a defective fiue.
Now the belief is that the bank was
looted by clever robbers, who set fire to
the place in order, to cover up their
tracks The bank officials declared to-
day that the fullest possible investiea-
ton would be had for the purnose "a,
learning what become of the money. II
IS not unlikely the disclosures will be fol-
lowed by others ora more sensational
character 10
so far as has been learned no sus-
p1cious characters were. seen in the vicin.
ity of the bank during the few hours NJ
the night preceding the time the fire
was discovered, but a careful inyestica.
