RATH OF MULLAGHMAsT
Slaughter of Irish Chieftains
EliZabeth's Reign.

1t was in Elizabeth's reign that the
massacre of Mullaghmast took place.
1t was typical Of the times and of the
men whom she sent to govern the Irish
people, says Il contributor to the Ma
| tiOnIl Ilibernian.
In 1911, Sir Francis Cosby. one OF
the queens favorites, was appointed
governor of I.eiX and Offaly and COM
mander of the forces in those terri
tories. This cruel and bloody tyrant
took such 4 delight in putting Catholics
to the torture that his most favorite
amusement was hanging men, women
and children by the dozen from an elm
tree that grew before his own doorway
at Stradbally. This diversion soon
pallcd on him. however. He longed fer
larger game.
He conceived diabolical plot for Il
permanent conquest of his district and
resolved to wipe out the people at one
blow. Just at that moment peace pre-
vailed between the government and the
inhabitants, but Cosby was filled with
the idea that in eXtirpation alone lay
the only effectual security for the
crown.
In order to cloak his real feelings, he
feigned great friendship for the people
and invited to a grand feast all the
chief families of the territory, hoping
they would all show their friendship
by attending.
The flower of the Irish nobility, only
too glad to show their friendly feelings,
responded almost unanimously to his
kind invitation. The O'NIores. O'Kcl-
lys, L.alors. O'Nolans, and other promi-
nent families, with their kinsmen and
friends, thronged to the hospitable
board.
The banquet" alas! was prepared
by Cosby in the great Rath. or Fort of
Mullaghmast, in the County of Kildare.
Into that great Rath rode many a
pleasant cavalcade that day-but none
ever came forth that entered in.
A gentleman named Lalor, who had
halted little way off, had his sus-
picions in some way aroused. He
noticed. it is said. that while many
went into the Rath. none We're seen to
reappear. Accordingly. he desired his
friends to remain behind while he ad-
vanccd and reconnoitered He entered
cautiously.
Inside a horrid sicSenng spectacle
met his sight At the very entrance
he stumbled on the dead bodies of some
Of his slaughtered kinsmcn. and in a
moment he himself was set upon. But,
drawing his sword. he hewed his way
out Of the fort and back to his friends.
and they barely escaped with their
lives to Dysart.
Hc was the only Irishman out of
more than 400 who entered the fort
that day that escaped with life! The
invited guests were butchered to a
man, $50 of the O'Nlores alone having
been done to death.
One by one the demons who pelpe-
trated this terrible massacre met their
doom. Foremost amongst the avengers
was the only O'N1ore left-Ruari
O'Nfore. long the terror and scourge of
the English, whose avenging cry ere
member Mullaghmast!' always struck
terror into their hearts,
The popular belief that neither rain
nor dew ever fell within the rath Of
slaughter and that the ghosts of the
victims always lowered around it. is
beautifully depicted in the following

is one of the earnest abb est and most ag-

He has been actively identified with ;sId

ness for themselves and al the same time
90 assist in every way possible in further

The GLOBE REPUBL1cAN's loyalty to
Dodge City and Ford county shall
never be questioned while the paper is
under its present management. In
politics the BE-REPUBLICAN will
always be found working for the success
OF the republican party. In county cam
paigns before the convention is held it
will be fair alike to all candidates, and
the choice of the convention will in all
cases have the earnest support of the
paper. The GLOBE REPUBLICAN will
strive at all times to be fair and courte-
Gus to the home people who are of diff
ferent political faith, but will be persist
ent and steadfast in standing for its own
convictions, and urging the election OF
its party nominees Within its own
party lines it will favor faction but
will work for harmony, and the strength
which comes from unity. Above al
things the paper will strive to fill the
demands of a local newspaper, a home
paper that may grow to be an indispen-

FAIR ASSOCIATION.
Energetic Business Men Will Inn
move the Grounds

Energetic Business Men VIII I'M
prove the Grounds.
Things are moving along in Dodge
City. The arrangements for clearing up
the park for the reunion were no sooner
made, than a movement for driving
park and fair grounds was begun With
the push and energy which is character
istic of the business men of Dodge City,
the second movement has been hurried
| along and the fair grounds will soon be a
reality.
At the meeting Of the Commercial club
held Tuesday evening, at which Mr..
Churchill presided, the matter of further
improving the race track was considered
and a motion made by Mr.. Juneau was
carried. requesting the city to lease the
track to The Dodge City Driving and
Fair association for term Of ten years,
the association to improve the grounds
and hold agricultural and racing
meetings.
A committee from the Club met with
the city council last night and the result
is that the arrangements are practically
completed. Mayor Hoover, on motion,
appointed committee from the council to
confer with the Driving and Fair asso-
citation, and draw up a lease for the
grounds for a period of ten years. The
amount of improvements which the asso-
citation is to make and its rights. and
those of the city to the grounds. The
council imposes one of the provisions
that the citizens may continue to use the
race track drive, excepting at such
times as there is racing, or morning
training going on. After the lease is
framed it will be submitted to the council
for approval. Both the members of the
association and the council intend that the
people of Dodge City shall be deprived
of none of the pleasures or benefits of the
park.
The purpose of the association is to
form stock company of $1,000 and to
eXpend $3.50 at once improvements
SO that fall fair meeting may be held
this year. and possibly meeting on the
Fourth of July.
The committee which went out among
the business men yesterday afternoon had
splendid success, and were able last night
to report to the couccn that $4,000 Of the
money already is in sight, and that they
anticipate trouble in getting the rest
of the fund.
The committee selected to do the So
Letting is Fl. B. Bell, H. Juneau, DIR.
Milton and !. III. Churchill.
Several of the first men approached
signed for 800 worth of stock each, and
others for $50 and S25.
The association will pull off a meeting
this fall and next year will go into the
Arkansas valley fair circuit and be
among the representative county fairs of
Kansas.
