Trinity College is beginning to reap
the benefits OF the lingo" and anti
Irish attitude taken by its representa-
tives recently The War Office has
offered to graduates OF the college five
commissions in the cavalry, ten in the
Royal Artillery, ten in the infantry, and
three i'll the Army Service Corps 1t
will be worth while watching whether
the Trinity cads-who were SO valorous
against the unarmcd citizens of Dub
llr-w1ll hasten to avail themselves OF
these opportunities OF doing some real
fighting with the veteran burghcrs OF
South Africa. How thoroughly anti
National the students OF Trinity College
are was shown, on March IL. on the oc-

under Lord Longford The detachment
had been recruited in the North OF Ire
land, and had no connection with Dub
lin; but the Trinity Boys" turned out
to escort the departing "Yeomcn," in
their usual riotous fashion. Having
done so, they subsequently paraded
through Grafton street and Stephen
green, carrying small Union Jacks AMI
singing loyalist airs. When passing the
Site OF the Wolfe Tone monument thcy
tore down one OF the wreaths, hung
there, and were in the act OF turning
down Dawson street, presumably with
the intention OF making another attack
ON the Mansion House, when they were
stopped by a body OF city police, before
which they fled in ignominious disor-
der, and did not rally again. In the
meantime large crowd OF Nationalist
had assembled and marched after the
loyalists singing National songs. There
was considerable excitement, but no
collision took place between the two
parties. The Nationalist, finally, dis
persed in the neighborhood OF COLLEGE
green.
