EvIcr1oNs IN IRELAND,
Hew the Victims of Landlordism are
Treated.

Treated.
The following account Of recent evic-
lions in the county of Leitrim, Ireland,
Is given by reporter Of the Dublin
Freeman's Journal:
The scene is again the barren hill
side Of Leitrim, where the brawny
arms of an oppressed peasantry have
wrung from the rocky and bogland
tracts hardly meager living. Life is
sweet even to those whose daily exist
ence is no more easy than that of the
tortured serfs of Russian Siberia.
Such are the people who today, be-
cause they could not pay an impossible
rent, were the victims of landlord
tyranny, and, having suffered during
their entire lives with the stress of
poverty, have-some of them-on the
very brink of the grave been hurled
from their homes like so many cattle
/. The scenes in themselves were
enough to chill the blood Of the most
unimpressonable; and the victims,
what have they done? There We're two
of them-McSharry and McGullion-
who were paying to the landlord, Tot
tenham, for many years, the sum of FL
year for their holdings of less than
half an acre. In 1887 they took ad-
vantage Of the Land Act and entered
the Land Courts, where the rent they
mad paid for so many years was re-
duced to Sos. year each. Unable to
fee lawyers or to understand the many
intricacies of land law. they allowed
their cases to 60 by default, and the
rents were raised to the old figure
of "a.
Another case is that of John Nee
han, who paid the landlord ELS year
for a great number of years for his
small and barren holding in Kitty.
clogher. He went into the Land
Courts to have fair rent fixed, and
his holding was reduced to "a. On
July 81, 1899, the Land Judges of the
high court of Justice in Ireland ordered
the final notice for the sale of those
lands, which up to the present has moi
taken place. The tenants have all
along been willing to. buy, but the
influence of high places for the horde
of vulture agents, bailiffs, and process
servers, who fatten on the ruin Of thu
people. has succeeded in preventing
that happy contamination of the Ion.

They once 80 proudly wore?

Can pilgrims eyes see still

And heather on the hill?

As in the days Of old?
Tell me If yet round towers stand
In silence, to proclaim
The glory Of an ancient land
The splendor Of her fame?
Can men still see the rath so green
- The abbey; lorn and lone,
The holy well in glen serene,
And quaint Druidic stone?- -
The castle caves,
Where ivy leaves
Sob. grooming in the blast,
Der bright hopes fed.
Brave chieftains dead,
And relics of the past?
Oh! tell me are the maids as fair
As in the long ago,
With laughing eyes and raven hair
To set ones heart aglow?
Say. have they still the modest grace
And bushes like the dawn,
The beauty Of the classic face,
The meekness Of the fawn?
Or are they true.
Dear land, to you,

Oh! tell me If the night be done,
And daylight's on the strand,
And If summers lustrous sun
Shines on risen land;
Have voices from each hill and glen
Taught men to do and dare
The path to tread-the goal to win
The>glorious crown to wear?
If so, may soon
A cloudless noon
Our aspirations hail.
And men acclaim,

Claim Made That Notes Were

caused sensation today, filing a claim
for $32 900 against the estate of Frank
e. Corbett, speaker of the late house
of representatives, and Clark's chief
attorney and most active agent in his
senatorial campaigns. For some of
the money Clark holds notes and for
the remainder has only checks. Mrs.
Corbett rejects the claim and threat
ems to make disclosures that may be
used in the new contest against Clark
for his seat in the U. S. senate. It is
claimed the money was advanced to
Corbett only to be disbursed for Clark
and the notes were given only to make
it appear straight" on the books
of the bank. Corbett left compare
lively small estate to his widow and
child. His death was generally re-
garded as direct result of the ar
duous work and exposure last winter
when he led the Clark force.

SENSATIONAL SUIT
Begun by q Woma n at Delaware
--Claims $75, 900 Of
Banker Estate.

Delaware, O., July 17.-There is a
case started in the probate court of this
county that promises sensation be-
fore it's end.
Last January Cary B. Paul, presi.
dent of the First National bank, of this
city. died, leaving a big estate, and
two sons and two daughters by the
first marriage, and his second wife.
Mrs. Alice b. Fleming. of New Phila-
delphia, formerly of this city, laid
claim to a greater portion of his es
tate, and in the probate court she
filed exceptions to the inventory re-
turned by the administrators of the
estate, claiming that 200 shares in the
First National bank in this city are
not the estates assets, but that they
belong to her. The case was heard
and also the motion for security for
costs, after which the Judge continued
the case for six weeks. The matter
of costs was taken under advisement
by the court.
This is but the initial chapter. Mrs,
Fleming is expected to sue the admin
istrators for $4,000, claiming to hold
the notes of the deceased banker for
over $i1 900, and also claim for bank
stock valued at S2S,000. At the time
of Mr.. Pauls death he was at the
head of the hotel trust in Columbus

hotel, Toledo.

Poor Scotch Students.

Many students from their highland
homes have appeared at the beginning
of the academic year with bag Of oat-
meal and a barrel Of potatoes, repre-
senting the sole store Of life and energy
for months to come. So common was
this practice that holiday In midyear
was appointed. known as Mealie Mon
day, in order to give the students an
opportunity Of returning home to re-
plenish their larder. This day is still
observed as holiday.
In his "reminiscences Of Edinburgh
Robert Chambers tells the story Of his
early experiences at the university
how a friend, his brother and himself
had lived together and each had
brought to the common store bag of
oatmeal. The three bags hung from one
Of the rafters of their room, and the
landlady would scrupulously take a
handful of the meal from each bag in
order to mix the morning porridge, ac-
cordlng to strictly equitable principle
of distribution.
1t must be remembered also that in
many cases untold sacrifices must be
borne In the homes whence the sons set
forth to secure an education In order
that they may live In university town
