Story of Gladstone.

Richard Dobson, of Lansing, Mich,
says that years ago he came across Mr..
Gladstone chopping down tree near
Hawalylen. Not recognizing the states
man, the globe trotter exclaimed: ''Hel-
10, Johnny Bull! You're making rather.
Il sorry job of cutting down that tree.
Mr.. Gladstone owned that it would take
him an hour. Thereupon Mr.. Dobson
offered to bet him dollar that he would
fell the tree in twenty minutes. "You
are a little man physically, but large in
conceit. am not much of a betting
man. retorted Gladstone, but I'll tell
you what Ill do, my little man. I'll
give you Il sovereign if you can chop
down that tree i'll twenty minutes, and
if you don't do it in that time you are
to cut it down for nothing" Mr.. Dob
son swears he performed the operation
i'll II minutes 81 seconds. At any rats
he pocketed his sovereign and subse-
Quently lunched at Hawarden.

The Plains of Abraham.

The historic plains of Abraham in the
city Of Quebec, on which the decisive
battle between Wolfe and Montcalm
was fought in 1853, are again in danger
of bein" destroyed. Some time ago
great Indignation was caused in Can
ada and the United States by report
that the plains were about to be cut up
into building lots, says the New York
Sun.
The Ursuline nuns, who are the own
ers Of the property, leased it to the
Canadian government years ago and
the lease is about to expire. Pressure
was brought to bear on the govern
ment to induce it to purchase the prop
erty outright SO that it might be con-
verified into a park as a permanent
memorial of one of the most important
events in American history. The gov.
eminent favored the proposal and the
sisters offered to exchange the prop
erty for $4,000 in cash and the March
.AAOAie phopSAeS, WHICH Is (WHICH Iu0
government in the city of Quebec and
is valued at $4,000. This would make
a total consideration of $4,000 and as
the value of the plains has been placed
at $137 900 the bargain seemed to be a
good one for the government.
1t is now learned that the purchase
would have been closed some time ago
had it not been for the opposition Of
MIR. Dobell, one Of the members for
Quebec city in parliament, who de-
clarel that he cannot as an honorable
man support the proposed arrange
ment. Mr.. Dobell declines to explain
his reasons further, but the fact is that
his opposition has been sufficient to
prevent the government from taking
any further action.
MIR. Dobelrs attitude has aroused
great Indignation. There is now every
likelihood that unless the proposition
made by the Ursuline nuns is accept
ed they will carry out their intention
of disposing Of the property in building
lots. The government is being urged
to disregard Mr.. Dobell's opposition and
save one of the most interesting his
toric spots in America from destruction.

ENGLISH ATROCITIES IN IRELAND.

1t may not be generally known to
our readers that President Roosevelt
has recently published book entitled
"Studies on Cromwell" Though the name
of Cromwell is deservedly odious to
Irishmen because of his being a regicide
and cruel tyrant, he is nevertheless
regarded as great man by some Eng
lish and American writer's.
The deeds of Cromwell and his SON.
in-law, 1reton, occupy dark page in the
history Of Ireland. They arrived in that
country in 1910 with an army consisting
OF seven regiments Of infantry, four of
cavalry, and one Of dragons. The first
city attacked by Cromwell was Droghe-
da, and after being twice repulsed he
took the city and put the garrison to
the sword. Several officers of distinc-
ton and 5000 soldiers We're mercilessly
slaughtered by him in cold blood. His
next massacre was at Wexford, where
he butcheWd about 1000 with savage
terocity, among them being 200 ladies
who sought with tears. and upon their
knees at the foot Of the cross, in the
public square, to propitiate the mon.

sex wherever he went, and to this day
and forever his name will be accursed
by the Irish people. The only Irish city
that repulsed the butcher with loss of
$500 of his best soldiers was Clonmel

Mr.. Redmond, Mr.. Stead declares, is
very fortunate in having such a self
sacrificing colleague, and one whose
name is especially one to conjure with

statesmen" to the effect that he is the

The prep! sed confederation of Cath
Ole societies is Il political move and we

lies who want office because of their re.

Why not wait until after the meet
ing at Cincinnati before writing in that
strain? Bishop McI1aul says that the
federation is not for political purposes,
and he certainly ought to know, for he
is the chief promoter OF it. The st.
Louis paper is too hasty in stigmatiz-
ing the proposed federation as "a Cath

contemporary. the Irish Standard is
willing to wait before pronouncing a
rash Judgment upon any body Of men

The fact that Bishop McFaul lives in
a small state is no evidence that he is
Il man of small caliber. According to
that style of logic. Burke and O'Connell
would be intellectual pigmies.

The American Society in London cele-
brated Thanksgiving day by giving
banquet. The chief guest was NJ. Cam
bon, the French ambassador. In re-
spending to toasts the Anglo-American
speakers dilated on the friendship be-
tween England and the United States
and some of them declared that before
long the English-speaking peoples would
rule the world. The polite Frenchman
listened attentively, but it is said he
felt uncomfortable. He knew that the
Anglomaniacs at the banquet did not
represent American sentiment. The
Americans in London are the offspring
of the Tories who stood by George III.
in the war Of independence. They are
more English than American.

THE ABLEsr HUMANITARIAN,

In the current issue of the Review of
Reviews, Mr.. William Il. Stead has a
character sketch of John Redmond who
is now on Il lecture tour in the United
States. The Dublin Freeman's Journal
has the following to say regarding the
Englishman's estimate of the Irish
leader:
No wonder the contrast between a
united, disciplined party with a compe-
tent head enforcing it's policy should
appeal with force to an English Liberal
who sees his own party at skies and
points Off each other. The bold fact,
so often pointed out in these columns,
that the Irish party is the real OPPOSE
ton to the government, and indeed the
only opposition worthy of the name,
has forced itself on the mind of more
Liberals than Mr.. Stead. Mr.. Redmond,
Mr.. Stead writes, is not only the chief
of the Irish Nationalist party, he is the
leader of the only effective opposition
that exists in the House Of Commons
at the present day. In that position he
adds, he occupies a place in the British
constitution only second in Importance
to that of the prime minister On
every point Of moment in connection
with the war, Mr.. Stead points out, it
was the Irish party and not the Liberal
party that acted as the opposition. The
writer goes OH to point ou, that "in the
heart Of the British democracy there
is growing tendency, democratic and
socialistic which feels instinctively that
the Irish Nationalist are their only ef-
fective allies
1--WE are approaching somewhat
stormy times" says the writer, "whcn
the burdens heapcd up so rcclllcssly in
the present war will begin to press
heavily upon the springs Of national
prosperity. American competition is be-
ginning to make itself felt. The trade
returns show that the tide of national
prosperity is already beginning to ebb,
and before long the men in the street
will be in no MatiiclSing temper. We
shall see the gloomy days of the winter
of 1SS6-S7 again ere long. when the cry
of the out-of-worI will be once more
heard in the land. So far from having
any doubt as to the swing of the pen.
dulum in the Radical direction, there is
reason to fear that the swing may I've
only too violent"
And when that day comes? Then
says Mr. Stead, although it may be
calling to the pride of Englislmen and
scotcllmen, it will be impossible to dc
without the Irish. 1.-The predominant
partner is much too conservative and
! conceited for us to hope that he will
show either the energy or the resolu
ton to clear a way without the aid OF
Mr.. Redmond and his followers"
With reference to the personal ques
ton of Mr.. Redmond's leadership, Mr.
Stead pays very just and eloquent tri
butte to the splendid spirit in which Mr.
Dillon has acted all through the troub
dous time out Of which the Irish pam,
and the Irish people have just emerged
The work of solidifying the party after
1t was shattered by the great explosion
consequent upon the fall of Mr.. Parnel
fell on the shoulders Of John Dillon
