TRIBUTE TO ST. PATRICK.
How Ireland's Great Patron Saint Was
Memorized in Reynoldsville.

Editor OF THE STAR:--The life and
deeds OF st. Patrick are still kept
green" In the minds and hearts Of
lrishmen and their offspring. On Mon
day, the birthday OF the saint, the
wearing Of the green" was visible In
every direction, the attractive color
ornamenting the clothing of the women
as we'll as that OF the men.
st. Patrick found Ireland a nation Of
pagans and converted them to Christ
ianity. Many miracles are attributed
to'him, although they are doubted by
some. To the firm believer in Christ
there is nothing strange in the per-
tormance Of miracles. He gave to the
Apostles this power in order to affirm
evidence of the true religion. Hear
what the Saviour says after performing
some miracles: 'Greater things even
than these can ye do II ye have the
faith"
ST. Patrick certainly had the faith
and therefore there could be nothing
mysterious in Christ fulfilling His own
promises. God often makes instru-
ments of men to accomplish desired
ends, and He will continue to do so un-
I'll this earth ceases to be.
The A. o. II. of town in order to
commemorate the memory OF st. Pat
rick partook Of holy communion in a
body on Sunday and wore the emblems
of their society. At second mass a
grand eulogy on Ireland's saint was de-
livered by Father p. j. Donahue. He
reviewed the deeds of Patrick in an
explicit manner, while his phraseology
in portraying Ireland and her noble
sons was most eloquent and charming.
The recital was delivered in good style
and in many respects was edifying and
impressive. Those who had the pleas
ure of hearing Father Donahue paying
tribute to the saint were warm in their
praise OF it during the day, and were
proud to note that this event did not
pass by default. A WITNESS.

We consider him well qualified for
postmaster, with one exception, he does
not speak the German language as
fluently as he should. Captain had a
good chance TO learn that language
when he was in his teens. His father
sent him to Paradise school to learn
German. He engaged boarding for him
with a German family and requested
them not to talk English while Tilton
was there, as he wanted him to learn it
quick so he could wait on the German
customers that came to his store. Capt.
went willingly, as Paradise was a great
maple sugar country in those days.
Capt. returned home the third day, and
when taken to task by his father said:
1T will be easier for those German
customers to come in and learn TO talk
English than it would be for me to
learn to talk dutch"

PHILANTHROPY FROM THE HEART.

The great cry against the princely benefactions
of such men as Carnegie and Rockefeller is that they
do not decrease the sum of human misery-that
they reach few besides those who able to do fol
themselves; that the distance from the giver tC
those aided is vast that of the spirit of hui
man kindness and brotherly tenderness accompanies
the gifts. There is something in that idea
The philanthropy that carries with it hand
shake and Good bless you, gets into the hearts
yes, the very souls of the poor, who not only
aided, but encouraged Up i'll New York town
there is q porter who saved some money because he
had the bootbacking privilege in hotel. 1t is
doubtful if Jimmie Feiley ever in public Ii
brary and it is sure that he never in college.
He worked hard lived one day at time, and was
kind
Last New Years day Jimmie" drew $500 of his
hard earned money out of the bank and made dis
tribution. Some of it went to public institutions,
but the most of it he carried directly to the people
he knew, and who were deserving. He said Happy
New Year. to widows and old men, and the "God
bless you Jimmy" that he received in return for
his bounty made him warm all over.
And here is the science of it in his own words
II am alone in the world. My wants are few
and simple. To hoard up money does me no good.
I've known what it is to walk the streets of strange
town hungry and without shelter. [ made up my
mind long ago that if ever luck came my way, I'd
share it with the chaps in hard luck"
If you measure philanthropy money this
blacker of boots doesn't make much of a showing In
the list of givers. But if the Golden Rule is the
measure, if love and unselishness and good impulses
are to count there is no question about the spirit
of the humble man who was kind to his fellow
beings.

CUBA DESERVES REASONABLE TREAT
MENU.

If an emotional person, in sudden access OF ben
evidence, adopts poor waif out of an orphan asy-
lum, everybody applauds. If the orphan subse-
quently causes some trouble and expense, the guar
dian cannot turn it out in the cold world without
mourning just censure from those who formerly APP
plauded. When the United States broke into the
Spanish orpan asylum and forcibly abducted num-
Der of the inmates, they incurred responsibilities
which can hardly be evaded Any attempt to evade
them will bring upon us the censure of the world,
for we will confess own hypocrisy.
We have made some progress with Porto Rico af-
ter period of bad laundering The Philippines
must be spanked long time yet before much can
be done for their commercial improvement. Cuba
is waiting for some act of benevolence and her
plight will be pitiful, unless consent to make
some small sacrifices in her behalf Two important
home interests have taken alarm at the proposed
reciprocity treaty with Cuba The tobacco interest
and the beet sugar association opposing reclp-
rocity that promises to benefit Cuba This is not
to be wondered at selfprotection is the first law
of nature but sef-protection must be exercised
with reason.
Cuba is suffering from business depression, which,
but for the relief caused by activity of the public
works department and a few American enterprises,
would soon become acute. The Cubans are cut off
from making treaties with other nations by our own
Introduction, but the people have a right to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness else decla-
ration of independence is piece of hypocrisy. In
order to buy American goods they must have some
thing to give in trade, and their two exports are
sugar and tobacco. The beet sugar producers are
entitled to the same consideration as the propre-
tors of any other American industry. Their govern
ment owes it to them to protect them from ruin
On the other hand, the beet sugar men some
thing to their government, which finds itself in an
embarrassing position because of responsibilities it
has voluntarily assumed.
The sugar and tobacco interests seen to be doubly
protected by high tariff and by trust organization
which controls prices. Thus fortified against dis
aster it would seem that they might consent to a
reasonable relaxation of the tariff in reciprocity
agreement with Cuba. Instead of demanding an
absolute adherence to the present sugar and tobacco
rates, the two interests ought to be reasonable. Be-
ing IN the control of trusts they would to be
in absolutely safe position for any time that
their profits fall below satisfying figure; either
can boost prices, and the consumer must put up
their demand.
Something must be done for Cuba, or the govern
ment of the United States will incur the censure of
the world, and shall appear as the most oppres-
sive of despotisms in the disguise of liberal gov
eminent

President Roosevelt has declared himself with re-
gard to the appeal of Rear-Admiral Schley by de-
nying the appeal He agrees with the unanimous
findings of the board of inquiry regarding which
there is no dispute. Public opinion seems to agree
with that part of the verdict. The president Likely
speaks quite truly when he says that it was a cap
tain's battle, and that neither Sampson Schley
exercised any particular direction during the fight
This is possibly true, but it is certainly that
no orders came from Sampson who was not present
at the battle. There was no occasion for commands
The Spaniards running away The natural in
stinct of every commander to drive after them,
and to fire fast and aim as accurately possible.
1t the accident of position which placed Schley
in the lead and Sampson out of the fight. The bat
tie would have resulted the same had both been on
the opposite side of Cuba
There is suggestion that the president notes in
all the agitation an attempt to discredit Schley.
After the battle, when Sampson seemed anxious to
get all possible credit out of the affair, and public
opinion was favorable to Schley, Sampson charged
Schley with "reprehensible conduct in conducting
the blockade Mr.. Roosevelt is of the opinion that
if any serious ofense or breach of discipline had
been committed, it should have been reported SIX
weeks before The long delay condoned the offense.
Indeed there a suggestion that, had Schley been
kept in the background, the complaint would never
have been made.
The president has finally disposed of the whole
disgraceful controversy, which should never have
appeared in the annals of the American navy. Pub
lie opinion is inclined to give both parties to the
quarrel all the glory that is due them This with
the finding of Admiral Dewey, gives Schley the
glory of the victory the actual commander of
the Santiago fight. The efforts of the admins
tration and the naval "clique" to rob him of this
glory will have it's effect on history but with this
generation it will be unsuccessful
If the pickering and exchange of innuendoes
could be forgotten it would be better for all parties
concerned.

Overeating And Morality.

At recent congress held in Chicago vegetarian del
egate read curious paper on diet: He stated that
much of the immortality in the world was due to the
eating of animal food 'The cook" he said, ''often
leads to drunkenness and excess than the saloon
keeper Highly seasoned rich animal foods lead to in
digestion and -heaith Il-heath weakens the will,
and weak will breaks down the moral character To-
tai depravity is often nothing but total Indigestion
This reasoning reminds one of the old conundrum,
''Why is home like baby?" the answer being, "Be-
home is where the heart is; the heart is in the
shrub growing plant growing plant is beautiful
thing, beautiful thing is primrose, primrose is
pronounced "yeer," and pronounced yeller' is a

ga ChiId's Prayer. I"

Into her chamber went
A little child one day,
And by her chair she knelt
And thus began to pray:
Jesus, my eyes are closed,
Thy form | cannot see;
If thou art near me, Lord,
Wilt thou not speak to me?
still, small voice she heard within her soul,
"What is it, child? hear thee, tell me ALL"
pray thee, Lord, she said
That thou wilt condescend
To stay with my heart,
And ever be my friend;
The path of life looks dark,
/ would not go astray
o, let me have thy hand
To lead me in the way.
"Fear not, thou shalt not run the race alone
She thought she felt soft hand press her own.
Her little prayer was said,
And from her chamber, now,
She passed forth with the light
OF heaven upon her brow;
Mother, I've seen the Lord,
His hand in mine felt,
And o, heard him say,
AS by my chair knelt,
"Fear not, my child whatever ills may come,
III not forsake thee till bring thee home.n
