The Irish,

Now health to the Irish. blg-heartSa
From Erin. far over the sea;
Who have left her for aye, braved the
wind and the wave
For a home in the land Of the free:
And though homeless perchance In the
land of their birth,
Which, indeed, Is the blue oceans gem,
out the broad earth
Every home is wide open to them.
Or. deprived of the power, so Justly
their own,
To rule Ger the fair Emerald Isle,
In the heart Of mankind they have found
a new throne,
And the seepter they WELD Is a SMILE
And st. Patrick himself, gazing down
from above,
Must smile on his day when is seen
How all classes and creeds show their
fealty and love
For the Irish by wearing the green.
And IL. from their country of thraldom
and wrong,
They have brought little gold to in
vest,
Far better the mirth and the sunshine
and song
They have borne to the hearts of the
West.
We acknowledge their genius and proud
ly admit
That the world would not half be so
bright
II these princes of kindness, good HUI
NOR and wit,
Were to pass like dream In the
night
When musing alone. looking into the
flames,
Counting faces of friends loved the
best,
We marvel to note that the quaint Irish
names
Are the ones that outnumber the rest.
So Wen drink to them all, to the Fitzes
and Macs,
To the Murphys, Moroneys and O'sl
To the Mikes and the Patricks, the
Jameses and Jacks,
From the land of the shamrock and
rose.

cood Office Under Tammany.

Charles F. Murphy, head Of the
Tammany organization. and since the
recent elections one Of the most i'm.
portant political personages in the
country, has held but one public Of.
fice-that of dock commissioner. 1t
is understood that those who care to
do so are able to make good deal Of
money while holding that Office. At
one time a Tammany man gave up a
place paying $4,000 year salary to
accept that Of dock commissioner at
$1,000. On being asked why he did
so he answered more or less ambigu-
ously: "Well, you see, in the dock de-
partment most Of the work is done
under water"

crlnnIe a LIVING Sermon.

Harvard students say that the
cheeriest chap among them is Arthur
E. Small, cripple who moves on
crutches. His father, Boston furni-
ture dealer, has fitted his sons room
in Thayer hall with everything that
student could wish. Among the
young mans possessions is a low,
blackboard auto. with which he makes
long and tremendously speedy trips
about the country. Small leads the
happiest kind of life and is regarded
as a living sermon by his fellow stu
dents, who universally love and re-
spect him for his sunny disposition
and affectionate ways.

Total Enrolment of the Year at All
Institutions.

The report of the commissioner OF
education for the last fiscal year
places the total number of pupils en-
rolled in the common schools during
the year at 1926, 1887, or over 20 per
cent of the entire. population.
The school term for the first time
in the history of the United States
reached las days.
The private schools are tabulated at
1,103,901 for the elementary schools,
and 168,636 for academies and other
secondary schools.
The total enrolment for the year,
including public and private, elemen-
tary, secondary and higher education,
was 17,460, 900 pupils, and to this there
should be an addition made for even
ing schools, business schools, private
kindergartens, Indian schools, state
schools for detectives, orphans, etc.,
of 620,840. making a grand total OF
18,0S0,840 in general and special
schools.
The total number of universities,
colleges and chronological schools Is
63S, of which 131 admit women only,
1874 universities and colleges admit
only men to the undergraduate de-
partment, and $50 admit men and
women. OF the forty-three schools of
technology, twenty-seven institutions
report women among their undergrad
yates.

BOY is A FiNANclER.
Messenger Estranses Lovers by Col
Letting Toll From Both.

There are wars and rumors of wars
between a certain Atlanta lover and
the object of his affections, says a
dispatch from the southern city. The
whole affair grew out of the rather
peculiar financial transaction of jim
mic Grogan, a messenger boy so small
that a minnow net was required to
haul him in.
The gentleman IT question sum-
moned the messenger to take a note
to the lady requesting her presence at
the theater. He paid the messenger
boy and dispatched his note. James,
with the genius of a Pierpont Morgan,
believed in getting money coming and
going. He collected an additional fee
from the lady, who liked not the idea
Of paying for the invitation. She tel
ephoned the young man, and there
were some warm things said over the
wire. The lover tore his hair, and
ended up by having officer Moncrief
arrest the messenger boy.
Young James Grogan was too small
to be sent to the stockade. His moth
er, however, agreed to chastise him
in the presence Of an officer, and the
financial genius was whipped good
and sound. Further developments
from the couple in the way Of recon.
ciliation are awaited with interest.

Enual 10 The Hstnnt y

Harold celebrated his fifth birthday
by attending Sunday school, his first
experience. The teacher of the class
to which he had been assigned gave
to each child a card on which was
printed the Apostles Creed and told
each one that she should expect them
to memorlze 1t by the following Sun
day morning.
Harold, having been given one of
the cards, felt SO very important to
think he had lesson to learn that
on his return from Sunday school he
rushed to his mothers room, and, hold
ing the card for her to see, remarked
Importantly:
"See, mother, what shall have to
learn by next Sunday"
my dear child" exclaimed the
mother, you cannot possibly learn 1t
by them"
yes, can, too" responded Harold,
why, know way down to hell now!"

Speaker for Five Minutes.

In mentioning the names of living
ex-speakers of the United States house
of representatives one is invariably
overlooked. There lives to-day in AL
bany, N, Y, at the ripe age of 70, a
rich banker named Theodore Medad
Pomeroy. On the 3rd of March, 1869,
Mr.. Pomeroy was elected speaker Of
the house to succeed Schuyler Col
fax, who had been elected vice presi-
dent and resigned the speakership to
be indicted into the higher Office. 1t
is said that Speaker Pomeroy served
only five minutes, but the encyclo-
pedias and biographical dictionaries
fail to tell why he was elected for so
short a period, why he left congress
so suddenly, why Colfax resigned to
get out of his way and what Pomeroy
did while speaker for five minutes.
