Priests and Nuns.

Shifting Scenes" by Sir Edward
Malet, G. @. B., formerly English am
bassador to Germany. is the title of a
new book just published in London.
Sir e. Malet is man above the rank
and file Of writer's. He was a great
friend Of Bismarck, and in the diplo-
matte service he saw the Catholic
church at work in many lands. The
following quotation, therefore, from
his book will prove interesting to our
readers:
I have studied beauty in various
forms, and it has always struck me
that 1t finds it's most perfect expression
in Roman Catholic priests and nuns,
who have devoted themselves to their
divine mission; they attain a beauty
before which you bend in reverence.
feeling that il comes from God. 1t is
the realization of the Buddhist doc
trine that, IL you can attain to perfect
goodness, you are absorbed into the
Divinity and the divine expression
which comes into the faces Of those
who have killed their bascr nature and
lived for the service of God Is like the
glory about the throne, and has the
purity Of the Holy Ghost.

Webster's Last Words.

The newspapers are now printing
"the dying words Of the worlds great
men" and among these Daniel Web
ster is credited with, II still live" as
his last utterance, says Bryan's Com
moner. An interesting explanation Of
those last words is given by Ben Per-
ley Poore. School boys have been led
to believe that Webster's last utter
ance was an assertion Of Immortality
OF perhaps a declaration that though
dead he would live in the hearts of his
countrymen, but Mr.. Poore gives an
altogether different idea. Mr.. Poore
says the great statesman had special
Liking for brandy.
Some time before the distinguished
patient died his doctor called, felt his
patients pulse, and said to the nurse,
"Give him tablespoonful of brandy
and if at II o'clock he still lives give
him another tablespoonful Of brandy"
A large clock occupied a place on the
wall at the foot of the bed where the
patients eye could readily rest upon
the timepiece. As the hands pointed
to the hour Of II, he looked at the
clock and then at the nurse. The nurse
made no effort to comply with the doc
tors instructions, and by way Of re-
mfnder the prnqt atateaman Axod g,is
eye upon the nurse and said: II still
live" The Doctors instructions were
promptly CARRIED out. This is pre-
scnted by Mr.. I'oore in all seriousness
as the correct version Of Webstcr's
last words, and Mr.. Poore adds that
the statement is verified by reliable
authority. If Mr.. Poores version is
correct the words are robbed Of the sig
nificancc which has generally been
given them.

comprise the leading men of Ireland

comprise the leading men of Ireland
without distinction Of creed, class OF
politics, while the executive board in
cludes picked men Of the commercial
intelligence of Cork city. Lord May
or Fitzgerald-called by many Of his
friends Lord Edward Fitzgerald-is
the strong man Of the affair. He con-
ceived the idea to be practical step,
to show how the cultivation Of home
industries, with an Irish exhibition as
an object lesson, and to be the most
effective way of stopping the unnatu-
raj emigration of the young Of both
sexes, which has really become a ma
tional peril. His head and hand have
been actively engaged in every step Of
dts development. He presides at as
many committee meetings as it is hu-
manly possible to expect any one man
to do, and he is a member of almost
every deputation that visits localities
outside of Cork seeking for financial
support. The affair has been support
ed quite generously, but the amount
required for such huge undertaking
is yet far from being subscribed. In
this connection it may be mentioned
that one Of the most cheering commu-
nications to the promoters was one re-
ceived by the lord mayor, few days
ago. from Hon. James D. Phelan, may
or of San Francisco, in which words
of cheer and kindly encouragement
were Endorsed by check for $100. It
was the first financial aid received
from America, and coming as it did
from a son Of Irish parents, from one
who has risen to the highest position in
the pioneer city of the Pacific coast,
it was valued not merely at it's ma
terial worth; it touched deeply every
member of our committee, indeed every
faithful Gael in Ireland.
In Mr.. Richard Albert Atkins, J. P,
the committee has secured resource
full and active honorary executive Off
cer, a man full of modern ideas, which
would be limited in the carrying out
only by the state Of the finances. To
those in the greater Ireland beyond the
sea who may wish to know his address,
inform them it is Municipal Build
ings, Cork, Ireland" and I may add
the further information that applica-
tions for space to be occupied by ex-
hibitors in the exhibition must be made
on or about Oct. 81, 1901. The execu-
tive intends to send delegation to
the United States and Canada early
next spring, to arouse the attention Of
Irish h-Americans especially to the prac-
tical meaning Of the affair, which is
simply an earnest effort by practical
men-fully acquainted with the indus
trial conditions in Ireland-to provide
remedy, or at least show what the
true, remedy is, for the awful calamity
threatcned-the extinction of the an
cient nation, the cradle land of the
Gael.
And now at the close Of this sketch
may say that while applications for
space in the exhibition have reached
the executive from many foreign parts
it is interesting to note that the first
application came from France Il cOun-
try which has always been one Of the
foremost among the friends and bene.
factors of Ireland.

libition; the switchback railway,

hibition; the switchback railway,
which appears to be a perennial form
Of amusement; distorted mirrors, elec-
trio boats, swinging boats, shooting
jungle, biograph and "rivers Of the
world" The latter has been wonder
full attraction in Glasgow, and may be
described shortly as journey by boat
along a stream Of water arranged in
serpentine form and running through
electrically illuminated caves hung
with views taken from all parts Of
the world, the whole being an illusion
that gives infinite pleasure and amuse-
ment.
At the Glasgow exhibition there were
but two outdoor forums of amusement,
namely, the switchback railway and
the water chute, so that it will be seen
that Cork will be much more interest
ing in this respect than the great city
on the Clyde. A miniature train, at
present running in Glasgow, will be
transferred to the Cork exhibition. and
its mileage extended so as to tempt peo-
pie entering the Mardyke avenue to
board the train for conveyance to the
grand entrance OF the exhibition. This
little contrlvance Is drawn by what
may be termed dwarf steam engine,
but there Is little fear Of accidents or
serious mishap, because the engineer
sits astride his locomotive, and he can
push aside with great facility any in
quisitive small boy who may under
take to trespass ON the way Of the
train.
The committee besides attending to
the beautiful have before their minds
the very important duty of seeing that
the welfare Of visitors during the ex-
hibition should be properly attended to-.
1t is hoped that the result Of their
labofs will he that the hotel accommo-
dations will be both very much en-
larged and considerably improved. 1t
is proposed to classify the accommo-
dation and tariff for the information of
intending visitors. and 1t is also pro-
posed to classify the catering within
the exhibition buildings.
This committee are earnest in their
desire to leave no stone unturned in
having their exhibition compare well
with other great international exhibi-
tlons, and be as far in advance of the
Cork Industrial exhibition Of 1883 as
this progressive age demands. It Is
considered probable that there will be
many excursions from the United
States to the old country during the
exhibition period, not the least attract
i've of which will be that organized by
Donahoe's Magazine, and in addition
to the numerous visitors expected it is
considered probable that many Ameri-
can exhibitors will show in Cork next
year.
Already hotel prospectors are busy
looking up sites for new buildings, and
large houses that might be converted
into suitable hotels, and a suggestion
which is now under consideration has
come from Mr.. Filgate, director of the
Irish pavilion in the Glasgow exhibit
tion, to convert some large ocean
steamships out of active service into
floating hotels and moor them in the
Lee.
