HOT SHOT FROM LENTZ.
He Speaks at Meeting to the Memory Of Rob
bert Emmett
lBy the Associated Press.l


Chicago. March 4.-The woes of Ire
land and the wrongs of the Beers We're
kindred subjects at meeting or the
Irish nationalists held in this city to-
night The meeting was primarily held
to pay tribute to the memory of Robert
Emmett, but the South African War
occupied almost an equal space with the
Irish patriot in the addresses that were
made. The chief address of the evening
was made by former Congressman John
]. Lentz, of Ohio, who spoke as follows:
eff it is good policy, if it is correct
morality for Great Britain 10 prevent
the development and growth of republi-
can governments in South Africa then
the time is ripe for the United States
to prevent the growth and development
of monarchical institutions in North
America. If England can justify the
barbarous war she is making against the
Beers on the ground that she cannot af-
ford TO allow a republic to be establish
ed across the Vaal River, then the peo-
pie Of the United States cannot afford
to allow a monarchical government to
strengthen itself across the Detroit and
ST Lawrence Rivers. If England is
right in South Africa, and if the gov
eminent at Washington is right lii its
policy in the Philippine Islands, then
much more justifiable will the people of
the United States be in insisting imme-
diately upon the annexation of Cana a.
There is no good reason why Con-
gress should not take action and pre-
vent the people of this country from sup
plying the British with horses and mules
among the most effective equipment and
the most dangerous instruments of the
British against them Nor is there any
good reason, nor even a good excuse, for
the President of the United States neg
lecting the duty of neutrality imposed by
Article s, of the treaty of Washington.
I'VE were exceedingly active in the de-
mands made upon Great Britain for
damages and injuries done at sea by the
Alabama and other vessels, and fail to
see why we should not be liable, morally
at least, if not financially not alone to
the people of South Africa, but the lib
erty-loving people of the whole world,
for lending substantial support to Great
Britain in her unwarranted war on the
State We are permitting Great Britain
to make use of New Orleans for the
purpose of renewal and augmentation of
military Supplies. We are not exercising
due diligence as to all persons within
our jurisdiction to prevent violation of

Washington, March 4.-Reports from
Colombia show that the Government is
thoroughly awakened to the formidable
character of the revolutionary outbreak
near the capital, and that large body
of troops has been hastily ordered from
the north to assist in the defense of the
capital. This withdrawal may have a
considerable influence on the campaign
on the Isthmus of Panama.
The report came from United States
Minister Hart, at Bogota, and in sub
stance stated that 5000 of the best SOL
diers in Colombia had reinforced the Gov
eminent troops near Bogota. Fighting
had continued for some days, but re-
liable details had not been received.

THE PAuPER's DRIVE.

By Thomas Noel.
There's a grim one-horse hearse in jolly
round trot-
To the churchyard a pauper is going,
wot;
The road it is rough, and the hearse has
no springs;
And bark to the dirge which the mad
driver sings;
Rattle his bones over the stones!
He's only pauper, whom. nobody owns!
Oh. where are the mourners? Alas. there
are none
he's gone
Not tear in the eye of child, woman or
man.
To the grave with his carcass as fast as
you can:
Rattle his bones over the stones!
He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
What jolting and creaking, and splash
ing and dinl
The whip, how 1t cracksl and the wheels,
how they spin!
How the dirt right and left DER the
hedges is hurled
The pauper at length makes a noise in
the world!
Rattle his bones over the stones!
He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns,
Poor pauper defunct! he has made some
approach
To gentility, now that he's stretched in a
coachl
He's taking a drive in his carriage at
last;
But it will not be long, IL 1t goes on so
fast.
Rattle his bones over the stones!
He's only pauper. whom nobody owns.
You pumpkins, who stare at your brother
conveyed,
Behold what respect to a cloddy is paid!
And be joyful to think, when by death
you're laid low,
You've a chance to the grave like a gen.
tleman to go!
Rattle his bones over the stones
He's only pauper, whom nobody owns!
But truce to this train; for my soul it is
sad,
To think that heart in humanity clad
Should make, like the brutes, such
desolate end,
And depart from the light without leay-
ing a friend.
Bear soft his bones over the stones!
Though a pauper. he's one whom his
Maker yet owns.
