On March 2S, news reached Armagh
that the sacristy of Moy Catholic
Church had been sacrilegiously broken
into the previous night, and a number
of altar requisites stolen. 1t appears
that the ruffians effected an entrance
by means of window in the sacristy.
The police are investigating the affair,
but up to the present time no one has
been apprehended.

The Belfast Linen Hall Library has
recently acquired, at cost of several
hundred pounds, publicly subscribed, a
valuable collection of rare editions of
the works Of Robert Burns. A bronze
statue of the Ayrshire poet has occu-
pied, for many years, place of honor
in the Free Library, and the date of
his birth is honored annually by BAN
quets and concerts. All this time the
citizens of the so-called Northern Ath-
ems seem to be sublimely unconscious
Of the fact that their own city could
boast, if it only would, of having given
birth to one of the greatest of Irish
poets, in the person of Sir Samuel Fer
guson, author of the Ulster epic:
"Comhgal," and the ''Lays Of the West

CORK.
In the Cork Assembly Rooms, on
March 18th, before very large audi
ence, Miss Maud Come delivered a
lecture entitled ireland Today" The
Cork Working Mems Band was in at
tendance and played number of ma
tfonal airs. The Irish National Forest
ers, in full regalia, occupied places on
the platform. An address was pre-
sented to the lecturer, by newly
formed branch Of the Daughters Of
Erin" In the course of her address,,
Miss Come, who was most enthusi-
astically received, said it was a dis
grace for any Irishman to be engaged
in a fight against, not only his own
motherland, but against the freedom
of another people. She referred to the
efforts of Major Mcbride and the Irish
Brigade in the Transvaal, and said
that the Irish Brigade had fought al
most to the last man. Miss Come also
discountenanced the patronage being
extended to English entertainments,
and said she was glad to see the work
that was being accomplished by the
Gaelic League, to counteract the in
PRODUCTION of English songs, etc., into
Ireland. She also appealed to the audi
ence to assist, as far as possible, in
stopping enlistments in either the Eng
lish army or navy.

Good Samuel johnson sat,
With frowning brows and wig askew,
His snuff-strewn waistcoat far from

That neither "Black SAM nor the

To knock or interrupt him dare
Yet close beside him, unafraid,
Sat Hodge, the cat.
."This participle," the doctor wrote,
"The modern scholar cavils at,
But''-even as he pcnned the word
A soft protesting note was heard.
The doctor fumbled with his pen,
The dawning thought took wings
and flew;
The sound repeated came again
1t was faint reminding "Mew!'
From Hodge, the cat.
"Poor pussy!" said the learned man,
Giving the glossy fur pat,
"It is your dinner time, know,
And-well, perhaps ought to go;
For if Sam every day were sent
Off from his work your fish to buy,
Why-men are men-he might resent,
And starve or kick you on the sly

The dictionary was laid down,
The doctor tied his vast cravat,
And down the buzzing street he strobe,
Taking an often-trodden road,
And halted at well-known stall:
"Fishmonger," spoke the doctor
gruff,
"Give me six oysters-that is all;

Spent in supplying the small need
OF Hodge, the cat.
That dear old doctor, fierce of mien,
Untidy, arbitrary, fat,
What gentle thoughts his name enfold!
So generous of his scanty gold,
So quick to love- SO hot to scorn,
Kind to all sufferers under Heaven
A tenderer despot ne'er was born;
His big heart held corner even
For Hodge, the cat.
