CREMONA VIOLIN STOLEN.

Greenwich, Conn, March DIR. Clark

office steps in Port Chester, while he was

his steps while he engaged in a SNOWFALL

neighborhood. When he turned to enter
his office the violin was missing. DIR. T.

MoIasses for Horses.

The little ponies in the Philippine

half molasses being used. This is all

only at mea1-times. They have placed
before them, every morning an old
kerosene oil can full of tiki-tilxi, which
is a mixture of molasses and water with
little rice flour in 1t, their ration of
palay, or unhusked rice, and bundle
of zacate, the native green grass. They
have this at about or o'clock in the
morning. The ration is repeated at II
o'clock, at 4, and when the days work
is done. 1t would be rather dangerous,
il is claimed, for these ponies to drink
water in that climate, although the
American horses are given water. For
some reason or other, it must be adj
mitted, American horses do not thrive in
the island. 1t may be because they do
not take favorably to the feed obtain

TAcKS IN STOMACH.
Metals, Knives, Pins and Shoemaker's
Awl Abstracted in Operation.


New York. March Claude Trimblo, "a
years old, walked into the Erie county
hospital a week ago and asked for medical
attention. He was assigned to a bed and
at first the surgeons thought Trimble was
suffering from a floating kidney. One of
the surgeons said it would require an abb
dominal specialist to diagnose Trimble's
ailmen:.
After several consultations the surgeons
were unable to diagnose the case and an
operation was decided upon. This after
noon DR.. Graylord performed the opera
tion. When the surgeons knife pene-
trated Trlmble's abdomen more than two
pounds of metal were found to be lodged
therein.
After the operation had been success
fully performed the surgeon had taken
from Trimble's stomaeh 45S carpet tacks
eff the usual size, Al knife blades of the
smaller size Of penlsnife, l42 screws of
various sizes, 10 pin points which resem-
lie the pei nts On a shoemakers anvil, six
and a half pounds of ground glass and a
chain three inches long made of wire.
The total weight of the metal found in
The stomach was two pounds and three
ounces. Trimble showed signs of i'm
provement afte. the operation and mis- re-
covery is practically assured.
AT the hospital little is known regarding
the strange patient. That the man was
formerly a circus attache and did some
dagger swallowing act there is little
doubt He will say nothing regarding
himself. The tacks, screws. knife blades
and pins abstracted from Trimble's
stomach will be placed in the Gratwicz
laboratory.

and most famous of the old Irish
rebels who fought England to the last
drop Of his blood, dying of Il wound
received when leading his Irish fol-
lowers against the British army
This circumstance appealed to the
heart Of every Irish patriot. but il
was scarcely necessary, for his char.
acter and opinions became well known
in Ireland during the four years that
he served as private secretary to Mr..
Balfour, when the latter lived in Dub
lin as secretary of state for Ireland.
And there he not only obtained Il
practical knowledge of affairs, but
won the hearts of the Irish people. At
the same time he was an officer of
the COldstream Guards. and afterwnrd
accompanied his regiment to the Sou
dan, where he served with distinc-
tion through Il terrible campaign. Up
on his return he was given Il place in
the war Office and in 1893 first appear
ed in public life as undersecretary for
war. His gifts were soon demOnstrat-
cd. When lie made his first speech in
the house Of commons he became the
hope of his party. and during the cn-
tire BOcr war he carried the RESPONSE
billty of the war department in the
house of commons. In August, 1902,
he entered the cabinet as secretary of
state for Ireland. and within n year
had the most unusual distinction of
carrying through the most important
piece of Legislation that has been en-
acted for many years. Mr.. Wyndham

There is a very great difference be
tween the English and the Irish land
systems, which must be understood
in order that the significance and val

The curse of Ireland has been that
the people who own the land have
not lived upon it, have made 10 i'm
provements and have had no interest
i'll it. except the rents they have eX
acted from their tenants, which, gen
orally speaking, was expended else
where, thus constantly draining Ire

the labor of it's inhabitants. The Eng

his direction, and he pays for it, and
the houses occupied by the tenants
are repaired at his cost. The rent he
receives is interest upon expenditures
actually incurred in securing and
maintaining the investment But con-
ditions are wholly different in Ireland.
There 80 per cent of the landlords
own nothing but the bare soil, and
their tenants are required to provide
their own houses, barns, fences, drain
age, roads and everything else in the
way of improvements, for which they
are allowed nothing, and as they have
been subject to eviction at the will
of the landlord they have had no en-
couragement in improving their sur
rOundings. Therefore generally speak
ing, in appraising the value of lands
only the soil is to be taken into con-
sideration, and it is becoming a pop
ular opinion that landlords who can
get rid of their property and the risk
that has always attended landlordism
in Ireland for government mortgage
are getting the best of the bargain.
In several cases attempts to negotiate
sales have failed. The first meeting
Of landlord and tenants to discuss the
terms of sale was at Castle Archdale.
County Fermanagh, where Edwin
Archdale, the owner, offered to sell
his property on terms equivalent to a
twenty-six year mortgage in addition
to a bonus. but the tenants declared
their unwillingness to give more than
twenty-three years and the negotia
tion fell through. Similar cases have
occurred elsewhere. The landlords
have generally demanded twenty-six
years and the tenants have offered
from eighteen to twenty-three, but it
would appear that in most cases the
farmers have been guided by the ad-
