PERSIAN RUGS OF IRISH MAKE

Deft Weavers on tho Old Sod Turn Ont
Perfect Imitation.
Just a year ago some manufacturers
81 artistic textiles touring in Donegal
resolved on establishing place for
the making of hand-tufted carpets OF
the description generally known as
Turkish" or Persian" The peculiar.
ity of. this fabric is that from its ma.
ture 1t must be hand production. The
tufts are tied by the fingers in knots
in longitudinal warps, which are
stretched between two long parallel
beams. The carpets are made to the
size and shape of any room. The de-
sign is placed in front and the girls
from three to dozen, according to
the size of the carpet, select the colors
indicated row by row, which are tied,
then bound down by Shoots Of WOOL
en- welt drawn across the entire width
and beaten firm by small iron-toothed
hammers. There is interesting variety
and pleasure in the work, and it is
such that individual Skill and work
manship come largely into play. Alto.
gether, 1t is just such an industry as
is suited to the rural districts of Ire
land. No steam power is required and
there is therefore no handicap on the
commercial side by the absence of coal.
The first years experiment with the
Irish girls has proved that they are ad.
mirably adapted for the work. The
girls show nimblcness Of fingers and
sharpness of eye for color and form
that have quite astonished their teach
ers and they take to the work with a
spirit and cheerfulness quite refresh
ing. So convinced are the promoters
of its ultimate success that they have
planned out broad scheme that will
spread the work all over the west Of
Ireland and give employment to many
hundreds of girls and boys.-London

A C2t's Long .Jump.

New York Correspondence Pittsburg
Dispatch: How Is can cat jump
without hurting itself was partially
exemplified in Brooklyn. A pretty
white cat ran up tree to get away
from dog, and at last crawled out on
small branch at least sixty feet above
the ground. The branch was not much
more than twig, and the cat could
not turn around. She sat up there on
the swaying limb and meowed. At last
the twis f7Nke, and down came tho
cat. She alighted "a the ground on
her feet, looked around for moment,
and then bounded away. Which shows
that q sixty-foot drop does not hurt
Brooklyn cat, whatever It might do
to cats Of other places.

GOOD REASON FOR 1T.
THE SUCCESS AND POPULARITY OF THE
NEW CATARRS1 CURE.

NEW CATAkRH CURE.
The remarkable success and popularity of the
new catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, Is
srgely because 1t not only cures catarrh, but be-
cause eatarrh sufferers who,ass these tablets know
what they are taking into their eystems; secret
Is made Of what they contain. They are composed
Of Hydrastin, blood root, guaiacol and red guru,
are pleasant to the taste, and being dissolved in
the mouth they take Immediate effect upon tie
mucous lining Of the throat, nasal passages and
the whole respiratory tract
The cures that stuart's Catarrh Tablets have
accomplished in old chronic cnses little short
or remarkable, and the advantage Of knowing
Just what you are taking into your system is OF
paramount Importance when it is remembered that
the cocaine or morphine habit has been frequently
contracted as the result Of using secret catarrh
remedies, as so many of them are well known TO
contain these injurious drugs
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets meet with the approval
anu cordial support of physicians because their
antiseptc character renders them perfectly safe
Tor the general public to and their compost
tlon makes them common sense cure for all
forms of catarrhal trouble.
With nearly all advertised catarrh cures it is a
meter of guess work to what you are taking
into the stomach, the proprietors, while making
all sorts OF claims as to what their medicines will
do. are very careful to keep 1t close secret to
what they really contain.
This is one reason why Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
hav, been widely recommended, because they
are not only pleasant and convenient to take but
the patient also knows he is not putting into his
stomach anything Of an injurious character.
These tablets sold by druggists everywhere
In the United States and Canada at 80 cents for
complete treatment, and probably there is no
better remedy ever devised for the permanent cure
Of catarrh, whether located In the head, throat,
bronchial tubes or in the stomach. de1S,20

treaty has been uniformly regarded as un-
affected by the cession.
"a long line of special treaties with such
tribes and numerous acts of legislation by
Congress on the subject Of Indians and In
dian rights show that the people have al
ways been regarded as quasi-foreign." He
asserted that 1.-The treaty-making power of
the government has exercised the right to
ieal with the status Of the Inhabitants of
eeded territory in every treaty of cessions
rom 1903 to 1S9S' The status fixed, he
said, has not been uniform, but exceed
ingly varying
He then proceeded to argue that this
practice Is entirely at variance with the
doctrine that ''the Constitution follows the
flag" and that when territory is ceded to
the United States the inhabitants become
Immediately ex proprio vigore citizens of
the United States. "If that doctrine be
true" he said, "every treaty that has
brought us new lands and new inhabitants
has violated in this respect the principles
OF the Constitution. 1t convicts Of error
and usurpation Thomas Jefferson. James
Madison, James Monroe, James X Polk.
Franklin Pierce, Andrew Johnson, their
cabinets and the Senates that ratified their
treaties"
Arguing this point, he asked: "If COM
gress may properly define the classes OF
emigrant or aboriginal inhabitants who
may become citizens and the proper period
Of probation and the terms and conditions
Of admission, why is it unreasonable or un-
just to leave to their judgment and discre-
ton the time, the terms and the conditions
upon which the Inhabitants of lately for
etgn Islands may be admitted to the same
high status?
Unreasonable Limitation.
'Is the United States so bound and tied
by this Constitution Of ours that it can
never acquire an island Of the sea, a belt
across the isthmus. station for naval
Continued on Fifteenth Page)
Evening star., 1900-12-18

The Constitutional question:
Taking up the constitutional question the
Attorney General declared that there was
no doubt that 1t was the intention OF the
Paris treaty not to make the ceded Islands
a part Of the United States, and also that
it was intended not to make the inhabitants
of those islands citizens The only thing
that could justify the declaration that the
treaty is invalid would be that it violates
the Constitution Of the United States.
Calling attention to the fact that those
who attack the treaty rest their case upon
no specific provision of the Constitution, put
rather upon principle OF our government.
which. they say, forbids this nation to hold
sovereignty over subject territory which
It does not make a part of itself under the
Constitution. Mr.. Griggs said:
'If this were true, 1t would be a limitation
upon the usual and necessary powers OF
sovereign independent nation of such tre-
mendous Importance as to Justify us in in
uuiring why 1t is not clearly expressed in
the fundamental law by the men VINO draft-
the law of nations: they knew the nature
of colonies and provinces, and how they
were acquired by treaty and conquest and
discovery and how they were eev hela ano to
the nation they founded the usual untram-
meled power OF making war and treaties,
the most frequent methods by which foreign
territory is acquired by the nations OF the
earth. If they intended to restrict or limit
their own government in, these respects
would they not have done so in express
terms? They did not do SO by any lam
guage which can even be suggested as capa-
hle of such import, and 1t is therefore right
nay, necessary-to conclude that they did
not intend to DO SO.
The Practice of Years.
He then proceeded to argue that this was
not only not the intention Of the trainers
of the Constitution. but declared that 1t
could be positively shown that SO far from
their intending to organize a government
