FENIAN FLAG A RELIC.
Buffalo Possesses Banner That Was Carried by the Irish Troops During
Gee Invasion OF Canada
~~~
~~

A faded green silk flag with one
corner torn into ribbons, has been
placed in the collection of the Buffalo
Historical society. 1t is a relic of the
FeniaE invaders who crossed into Can.
ada frexn Buffalo on the night of May
81, 1866. and who had to come back
few days later, after having thrown
Canada into a spasm OF terror. This
flag went through what is known as
the battle of Ridgeway. which village
IS now more familiar to Bufalonians
as the town back of Crystal Beach
The flag was formerly presented to
the Historical society by James McEl-
roy. In whose family it had been for
long time. and by d. f. Mahoney. The
exercises were held in the society's
lecture room. About 200 persons were
present President Andrew Langdon,
in response to a few remarks made
by Mr.. Mahoney said he was reminded
of an incident that came under his
observation while in the Office of the
president of large New York bank.
1t was during a political campaign,
and one of the other officers coming
into the room hung up the portrait Of
one of the candidates" he said. The
president Immediately said, Take that
down. We have no politics here It's
the same way with us. We accept
relies whether We approve Of them or
not, and we accept this flag for its
historical interest
The flag, which was carried by the
Buffaloniaus who took part in the in.
yashen, is nine feet long and six feet
wide. In the upper ieft-hand corner

Sdil among the sH!fiest heet.
Rocking on the highest billows.
Laughing at the storms you meet
You can stand among the sailors.
Anchored yet within the bay.
You can lend a hand to help them
AS they dash theiT boats away.
u you are too weak to journey
Ipon the mountain J:eep and hlsh.
You can stand within the valley
W nile the multi;udes go by;
ou can chant in happy measures.
As they slowly pass along;
,Ihough they may forget the singer
Ihey Will not forget the song.
II you have not gold or silver
Ever ready to command,
II you cannot toward the needy
Eeach an ever-open hand:
lou can visit the afflicted.
er the erring you can weep.
you can be u true disciple.
Sittlhg at the SayiOr's feet.
- you cannot in the conflict
ffove yourself a soldier true.
II ~here fre and smoke are thickest.
Ihere's no work for you to do.
When the battlefield is silent.
you can go with careful tread.
You can bear away the wounded.
1ou can cover UP the dead.
Do not then stand Idly waiting
For some greater work TO do:
Fortune Is lazy goddess
She will never come to you:
Go and toll In any vineyard
DO not fear to do and dare.
II you want field OF labor.

How Commercial Bonds Have Knit Closely Strongest The

At the end Of the year, says the
Worlds Work. we may congratulate
ourselves that it will leave the world
in much better plight than 1t found it.
When u began there was war in South
Africa and there were troublesome
hosttlities in the Philippines. Now
peace Is broken If broken at all, only
by the unrest in Venezuela and Co
lomhia and in Hayti. that follows their
revolutions. and In Africa, where the

ish. And not only is the world at
peaee, but the great nations are more
seosEely linked together. perhaps, than
they ever were before. New forces for
peace are at work. especially two OF
the strongest possible world influ-
enses; an organized and closely knit
commerce, which none can afford to
disturb for fear of lasting loss of
trade, and in particular. the over
Shelming commercial power of the
United States. which would gain a
stir salrer lead by the suspension of
INDUSTRIAL activity in any important
,ountry. The little periodical adjust
nents of power and Of privilege that
he nations used to make by special
reaties were crude and weak guaran-
les of peace in comparison with the
ompelling power of modern com
aeyce and all that it implies. The
iost recent wars were really only
rontier wars.

into the mountain to show for their
summers labor. Unfortunately this
wa. all they did have to show for it,
for no trace of the mineral they
sought had been found. and their
means had played out.
On the day of the storm they con-
cluded to abandon the search and
they had taken the tools from the hole
and were packing their camp outfit
when the storm came up. The fall OF
the rain was accompanied by bril-
liant electrical display and loud claps
of thunder. Suddenly there came
most terrific clap of thunder, accom-
panying binding flash of lightning,
and II seemed to the watching men as
though the mountain was being torn
asunder. A moment later another
equally severe crash followed and a
third clap came a little later. The
lightning bolts seemed to be directed
at the shaft they had so recently
abandoned and when the storm had
cleared and they inyes ,igated they
saw that the wall of the shaft had
been scanned and shattered by the
electrical bolts. They descended to
ascertain the results of the bolts and
found the wall of the shaft opposite
TO the lateral tunnels had been riven
and several tons of rock had been
scaled off and had fallen to the bottom
OF the shaft, but, what was of more
interest and Importance to the pros
pectors, the vein of ore which they
had so persistently sought had been
laid bare.

camels Trained to Race.

The ordinary camel, which will nev-
er hurry under any circumstances. has
been transformed in southern Algeria
into an animal SO different in size,
temper and appearance that 1t may al
most be looked upon as a different
race. This is the racing camel, priced
for its speed. The result of many gen.
erations Of careful breeding, which
has been encouraged by valuable
prizes, it can be depended upon for
nine or ten miles an hour, which it
can keep up for sixteen or seventeen
hours, almost without stop.

different and radically better for peace
than any Of the battered centuries be-
hind us knew. The unfettering of the
dominant race of men by free institu-
tions to free opportunity on the most
fruitful continent. and the industrial
rise of the Republic, fortifying its po-
litical power, have put all nations in
a new relation to one another and in
a new relation to civilization. This
revolutionary fac. has become palmer
this year than 1t ever was before. It's
far reaching significance we do not
yet see; but 1t looks like a great
force that will work for the steadying
of governments and for the sane Si-
rection of endeavor for centuries to
come. For it is the natural result Of
a great law of human development
and not an advantage won by the
strength of armies or by the skill Of
diplomatists or by any other power
that may change with change of rul.
ers and OF generations The industrial
man becomes stronger. the political
man weaker; and economic force Is
beginning to rule the world as mill.

a golden sunburst was once painted
on the background of green silk, but
its outlines were destroyed by Cana
dian ball that tore through the flag
at the battle of Ridgeway. That por-
tion of the flag is merely a collection
of tatters now. Running in a line
slanting upward and that begins be-
meath the sunburst are the following
words in golden letters: Buffalo, Sew.

ton" Beneath this is the following
the Fenians had returned from Can
ada: "Ridgeway and Fort Erie. June
.. 1866" Occupying the center of the
right-hand half of the flag is the fol-
lowing, also in golden letters: Pre-
sented by the Fenian Sisterhood OF
Buffalo, May 6. 1866 Part of this
lettering is torn, the result of bull
let.
The flag was carried to Fort Erie,
Ontario, with the 800 Fenians who
took part in the invasion. After hav-
ing driven the Canadian militia near
Ridgeway to retreat, and then having
to retreat themselves before body of
Canadian regulars, the Fenians hur-
ried back to Fort Erie While trying
to cross the river the Fenians were
arrested by American forces. Later
they were released. The United States
government authorities returned the
torn flag to the local Fenian organiza.

letter:
MY wife had been suffering from a
complication of diseases for the past Is
years.
Her case had baHled the skill of some
of the most noted physicians. One of her
worst troubles was chronic constipation of
several years standing
She also was passing through that most
critical period in the life of a woman
change of life. In June. 1895. 1 wrote to
you about her case. You advised a course
of Peruna and Manalin. which we at once
commenced, and have to say it completely
cured her. She firmly believes that she
would have been dead only for these
wonderful remedies.
About the same time l wrote you about
my own case of catarrh. which had been of
25 years standing. At times was almost
past going. l commenced to use Peruna
according to your instructions and continued
its use for about year, and It has COM
pletely cured me.
"Your remedies do all that yoa claim
for them, and even more. Catarrh
cannot exist where Peruna II taken
according to directions. Success to
you and your remedies.
