Links with tho past" has been
standard headline in the English news
papers ever since the new century be-
gan. The theme is an old one, but
many Of the examples cited have been
most interesting. 1t would seem impos-
sible, for example, If it were not proved
that Miss Courtenay, who signs her.
self an octogenarian, could have talked
with the boatman who took out Mr..
Alexander Pope for his constitutional
row at Richmond. From Paris an even
more striking instance is reported. A
gray-haired prisoner was brought be-
fore the police justice for some trifing
misdemeanor "Have you no rela-
tives?" asked the judge. "No. My
parents are long since dead, and my
only brother also died hundred and
thirty years ago" "a hundred and
thirty years! No trifing with the
court" cried the outraged justice. But
I'm not joking your honor" said this
prisoner. Just listen. Mr. father
married young, at 10, and within a
year had a child born who died Short
ly after birth. After the death of his
first wife, he married again, at the
age of 76, and I am the offspring OF
that marriage l am now nearly 73
years old. Reckon up, if you please,
and see if my only brother did not die
120 years ago." The justice could only
admit this apparently incredible link
with the past

Electricity is finding additional favor
in Sweden. The government of that
country is figuring upon utilizing it
as the motive power upon all the rail-

ID. Hon. James Bryce, careful OBJ

Irish writer, agree that Ireland to-day
is enjoying comparative prosperity.
The people are living better, their food
10 Of higher grade, the bank deposits
nave decreased, the farm rents are
lower, and the returns from work are
larger. The main reason why it does
mot take its place as one Of the rich
countries of the world is its lack of
manufacturing. 1t exists mainly on its
agriculture and its fisheries, says the
Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post.
Ireland contains 32,337 square miles,
mot including the 1876 little islands
which add s46 square miles to the total.
1t is not quite SO large as Indiana, and
10 little larger than South Carolina.
The Philippine islands are four times
the size of all Ireland. Less than Ave
years ago commission appointed BY
parliament reported that there had
been placed upon Ireland taxation
burden which it was unable to bear,
and that something should be done.
Thus came the new Land act, which was

evils. :, 49, e. =. ::
