a POLITICAL REVOLUTION
bnlonIsts Won Contest In ireland Dis
trlct over Landlord Candidates.

NfNNh W.T. OdnllAoANbs
Dublin. Feb. THE East Down
parliamentary election resulted in the
choice of Mr. Woods, the Independent
candidate, by a vote Of 1876. His
opponent, Wallace, received 3,429
votes. The successful candidate IA
vors the Radical scheme of wholesale
compulsory land purchase for the
whole of Ireland, with a view Of dis
possessing the entire landlord class.
The East Down district is one of the
strongest Orange centres in Ireland,
and has heretofore returned landlord
candidates by an overwhelming vote
The result, therefore, amounts to a
political revolution. Woods was sup
ported in his fight for the election by
T. w. Russell, who gave up a cabinet
ONCE to fight the land question
After the declaration of the poll
Russell and Woods were carried on
the shoulders of the hilarious Union
lists TO a hotel, where an ovation was
rendered them. Russell, in expressing
his Joy over the victory Of his candi
date, said: I'VE have beaten the Carl
ton Club, the landlords, the bailiffs
and the parliamentary deadheads Of
Ulster, and we have beaten the gov
ernment."

The Rock of Gibraltar.

Gibraltar is a rock off the southern
coast of Spain. 1t is regarded as the
KEY to the Mediterranean sea. 1t has
been in the hands of the British Tor

and conquered it from the Spaniards.
In the following year the Spanlards
tried to retake it, but without success.
This fortified rock is 1900 feet in
height and stands at the extremity OF
an isthmus which projects into the
sea several miles from the mainland.
It is about seven miles in circumfer-

Europe and Africa were Joined at this

of franchise. So, too, are police Of

have vote nor are they eligible. In
eligibility to parliament extends to the
Anglican clergy, to Scottish Presby-

K.ep Sweet Amid Trials.

J.R. Miller says that many of us find
life hard and full of pain. The world
uses us rudely and roughly. We suner
wrongs and Injuries. Other peoples
clumsy feet tread upon our tender sp1r-
it's. We must endure misfortunes,
trials, disappointments. We cannot
avoid these things, but we should not
allow the harsh experiences to deaden
our sensi bilities, or make us stolcal or
sour. The true problem OF living Is TO
keep our hearts sweet and gentle IN
the hardest conditions and experiences.

Bows Entering Business.

James A. Shaw says: Boys do not
appreciate the Importance and serious
ness of the first steps in business life.
They fail to realize that the future
depends not upon luck or chance, but
upon having a solid foundation. Too
many start out blindly, without any
idea as to what they want or are aim
ing for, thinking only of their salary
If a boy could commence business life
with even a small part of the judg-
ment and common sense he enjoys
later on how differently he would act
Boys too often fail to realize the dig
nifty of their new life and cling to their
boyishness and their boy pranks
which seriously interfere with their
work. He need not assume the airs
of an old man, but he should forget
the time-wasting and useless nonsense
during business hours. Boys often
think that because their work is ap-
parently trivial 1t is unimportant, and
so do their work in a slipshod way
There is no part of the work about q
business establishment that should
not be done accurately and prompcIy
Employers notice how the employe
does the little things, though the EN-
plo.e sometimes thinks that his shlrk'

an air Of satisfaction, as if 1t were
rather distinguished than otherwise
not to be one of the dull, ploddins
crowd who are willing to study and

treatment. 1t is a strange sort of pride
that finds satisfaction in having to be
scolded into a faithful work. If we are
old enough to understand what we

One on Mark Twain

Mark Twain's humor is not quite
understood by the British working
man, says Harper's Magazine. Andrew
Lang. in a current English magazine
article, tells how he made thin dis
covery. 1t seems that he had loaned
a CODY of '1vanhoe" to the working
man. who duly returned it with the
candid remark that he hadn't read
it through because there were so many
characters he couldn't remember
them all He then offered to lend Mr..
Lang a book, which he said, he was
sure he would like. This proved to be
a volume of alleged wit and Humor,
which, so far from amusing him,
caused Mr. Lang to feel sad and dis
couraged Mr.. Lang, in his turn,
then read aloud to the workingman
what he considered a very choice
extract from one of Mark Twain's best
books. But the workingman smiled
In wintry, perfunctory way. and Mr.
Lang knew that the man, whom he
pitied. pitied him. So they parted IN
mutual commiseration.

Origin of the Pin no.

There lived at the court of Ferdi-
nand de Medici, about 200 years ago,
a Padun harpsichord maker named
Bartollemeo Christoferi, a man OF great
inventive genius. After many expert
ments he solved the problem, which
had been a puzzle to the musical IN
strument makers of the period, now
to make a satisfactory working keyed
psaltery," and by the method he IN
vented of overcoming the difficulties
inherent in the task. produced an in
strument which was the undoubted an
cestor Of the pianoforte of to-day.
From 17O9-the date when Christoferi
made his four keyed psalteries'-the
piano, at first slowly, but afterwaro
by leaps and bounds, went on lncreas-
ing and increasing in popularity, until
now its manufacture has become a
great industry.

one as it comes in, says Ruth Ash
more in. Ladies' Home Journal. You
think of all the joys and the sorrows

year ago; That you will make great
resolve that the year shall be better
and your life nobler and more unset
fish than it was last year. Now don't
do this. Don't make the big resolve.
Think, hope and pray what you want
to. but in its place make lot of little
resolves. each one OF which will, in
time, tend to make you reach the goal
YOU desire to. Resolve to think a lit
tie less about yourself and little
more of the comforts of others. Re
solve to be less quick of speech and
more certain in action than you have
been. Resolve not to let the wicked

When He Was Twenty-One.

There is a young criminal lawyer
in Memphis, who on the occasion OF
his becoming of age, began the cele-
bration of his birthday in way that
caused his household great deal OF
CONSERVATION. On the eve of the fete
shortly after midnight, the young
mans family were suddenly startled
from their slumbers by a loud voice
in the house calling: There's man
In the house! There's man In the
house!" The valiant paterfam1llas
rushed from his room, bearing In his
hands a heavy billet of frewood, to
learn the cause of the disturbance and
to capture the intruder. His son was
standing in the hall, shouting at the
ton of his voice: Where is the man 2?
exclaimed the old gentleman. Here
sir; here!" proudly replied the young
man. This is he. At last I'm twenty
