for making work there is so little to do in 8 house where there is nobody to put a chair awry, or drop things on the floor, and ever since her fathers death she had dwelt alone, save for 3 faithful old negro servant. Just how lonely it was no one knew but she. So by degrees she had come to take what comfort she could in the kindly little fiction of being literary, which her friends wove about her, and if she tried to veil herself most in it when she. saw a woman looking with con- tented eyes up into her husbands face or mother romping with her children-well. that was her secret, too.

 There is more sense in the writer who penned the foregoing verses than is to be found in Hayes Book of Irish Ballads from cover to cover, and 1t Is with pleasure l quote his lines.
 Our people are sometimes sneering-

 nally brag of our valor. We poinc 1 with exultation to FOntenoy and q
 hundred other fields of victory. We stoutly deny that the Englishman is | our equal in dashing courage or rigid endurance, and We vehemently claim
 that all the victories that emblaZon 1 EngIand's banners, by land or sea,
 are the achievements, not of beef
 eating Englishmen, but of gallant Irlshmen, and brilliant Irish orators,
 like Shiel, will quake with indignation | if the Irish are called ''aliens," and 1 not British subjects in the London par | lament, and other Irish orators, if not | as eloquent as Shiel, at least as loud

 victories of the Peninsular war? Irish | men. Whose were the arms that

 that never reeIed i'll the shock of war
 before? Answer, said Shiel. What
 desperate valor climbed the Eteeps
 and filled the meats of BadaJos? They
 were 1rishnen, of course. Yet the
 redemption of Ireland is not worth
 the shedding of one drop of blood.
 Yet the gallant Connausht Rangers

 make more lasting the power of Eng | land empire. Let us, then. hear less
 about Irish valor abroad. Until we
 have gained our victory for our
 chained mother across the sea. we i ought not to boast so loud. When lrlshmen have struck 2 blow at the heart of England, when their flag floats
 over the ashes Of London, then an i admiring world will look upon them i as race of freemen battling for a
 cause, net as a tribe fighting under royal masters for rationS and empty
 applause. w. Qrish Worid)

MISS AURELIA'S PRIZE STORY By Elizabeth M. Gilmer. 4
 Copyright, 1s00 the Authors syndicate.)
By Elizabeth M. Gilmer.

MISS ATRELIA had long enjoyed, AVl in little southern town, an en- viable reputation for being literary which does not necessarily imply any actual performance in lit, erary way. As matter of fact, Miss Aurelia had given no host ages to print. That is, if you ex- cept the obituary poems signed "A Borrowing Friend," which always ap- peared in the village paper coincident with the death of any of her acquaint- ances, and which the bereaved fam lilies always cut tearfully out and pre- served between the leaves of their Bibles.
 Perhaps, though, it was her environ ment that had as much to do with the estimation in which she was held as anything else. Her large, ram bling, old colonial house was the only one in the town that boasted a room that was distinctively library, and there was that in it's imposing rows of somber, calf-bound books which seemed to d4lfuse halo of learning and culture. Further than that, neigh boring women running in in the early morning to borrow her recipe for blanc mango, or sponge cake, often found her already absorbed in a book, and when woman reads at the hour of the day sacred to cleaning house, and alarming socks, she has estab- ished her title to being literary be- yohd all doubt.
 Miss Aurelia might have claimed that if she read much it was because she had so little other occupation. Even with the most ingenious faculty

Trenton, March 30 Edward $. Sapp,
conductor OF the local accommodation
train which was i'm collision with the
Nellie BLY," express near Bordentown
on Feb. q, resulting in the death of
seventeen people aud the serious injury
for the collision.
He admitted this yesterday at the in-
quest held by Coroner Bower.
An color had fled from Sapp's face as
he took the stand. His movements were
tensely calm like one who had nervcd
noticed that his lips were drawn aud his
fingers twitched neryousy.
AS he told the events preceding the col
lision and which, through his neglect, had
brought about the fearful loss OF life
Sspp's words We're little beyond a whisper
TO time.
The death OF his engineer. Benjamin Il.
Thompson. from injuries received i'm the
collision, lay heavily on Sapp, as he
took TO himself all responsibility OF the
tragedy which had cost SO many lives
LIVED THROUGH ORDEAL OFTEN.
That he had resolved to make fun ac-
acknowledgement of the part ne played ON
the night OF Feb y was apparent 10 all
present at the inquest.
For weeks he had held his peace when
mention OF the tragedy was made, but
he had lived many times the ordeal
free and full acknowledgement was the
statement of man who had weighed be-
forehand his culpability. called up every
contingency i'm which others might have
carried a share of the responsibility, cast
all aside and pronounced himself alone
guilty.
He had realized the position I'm which
he would bc placed by his confession be-
fore he took the witness chair. His atti-
tudc was no different when ne had finish
cd the story of the collision from that i'm
Witch the Jurors had first seen him
His judgment on himself had been
passed during hours OF anguish and tho
judgment of jury aud coroner was not
reckoned ON as a soiace for his misery.
HE HAD DISOBEYED ORDERS
sapp admitted frankly that through his
negligence the collision had been brought
about. He had disobeyed orders. lie said
in answer 10 a question from Allen
Strong. attorney for the Pennsylvauit
railroad, that he was informed by the
the night Of the wreck. that there would
