MY EXPRESSION OF THANKS.


It's gratifying to chronicle my great
appreciation for the watchless, and
heroic medical aid rendered by Miss
Ida Price, of Brandon, Miss, Drs.
Ware, of Mendenhall, Miss, and
Walker and Lockbart, of Magee,
Miss, in the late illness of Timan
Burnham, my son, whose life had
almost ebbed away under the long and
patient suffering of typhoid fever
When Miss Price, skilled nurse, and
Drs. Ware, Lockhart and Walker,
three we'll equipped physicians, were
summoned to his rescue, his eyes were
almost closed in darkness and his
nerveless hands almost ready to be
crossed in drealnless sleep upon the
pulseless breast, when this corps
reached his bedside although notwith-
standing this he is now convalescent,
and it is to be remembered that time
and opportunity will forbid me from
fully compensating this corps for the
assistance rendered and the loss en-
tailed, and their untiring efforts in
connection with the power of God
can never be know and the result
felt until the books of heaven are
balanced. Respectfully,
E. BURNHAM.

Consumption

The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is SO often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor Of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

THE AFTER-GLASS.

Following are some striking pas
pages from a sermon on Drunken
ness" by Rev. Father H. Cotter:
The drunkard lays down his glass
and says, "Ah! that was good" 1 pro-
pose that he will wash the whisky
down with a glass l will fill. Drink
down the tears of your sorrowing
mother, and say. "Ah! they taste
WE'LL" Drink down the blood of your
broken-hearted wife, and say, "Ah!
it tastes WE'LL" Drain off the cup,
filed with your own honor, and say,
1T tastes WE'LL" You, ladies and gen
tlemen, may say the picture is over
drawn; seek, then, from those init
mately concerned, the truth. Let the
drunkard ask his mother what has
made her eyes red-rimmed and blood
shot, and her sigh will give him an
eloquent answer. Let the drunkard
ask his wife, what has given pallor to
her cheeks, and her surprise that he
did not know will be his rebuke. Let
the drunkard ask his own heart what
has become Of God-given affections,
and he will find that blue flame of al
cohol has licked dry the deepest
depths of his souls honor.
And all this, for what? Maybe to
gain the golden purpose of ambition?
No, but to kill ambition. Maybe to
reach a fortune? No, but to destroy an
actual or prevent possible one. May
be to handicap an enemy, and feel
the qualification arising from a sense
of victory? Not so; but to deliver
himself gagged and bound with
thousand chains to the arch-enemy of
true manhood and Christian charac-
ter. The drunkard slaughters all his
obligations for bottle of rotten liquor
and so goes staggering through life,
until he falls drunk at the foot of
Gods judgment seat. All! there, let
us leave him; even our prayers cam
-ot follow him; our prayers, like his
life, would be mockery to God.

willing to bargain freely for. He will
also reinstate the evicted tenants in
their holdings, having found it impos-
sible to find any to supplant them,
and probably he will leave Ireland
and endeavor for time to support
his title without a landed estate.
Ireland is making history fast this
year, and nothing shows it half as
clearly as the humbling, the surren-
der, of the greatest tyrant in the land,
the heartless Lord De Freyne.
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1903-06-27
LORD DE FREYNE suRRENDERs.

The most stubborn of Irish land
lords has been brought to his knees
by the United Irish League, whose
destruction he sought by every means,
fair and foul. Lord De Freyne will
sell out to his tenants.
Feudalism and the name of De
Freyne have meant the same thing in
North Roscommon for a hundred
years. The Trenches of French Park,
the head of which family is ever the
Lord De Freyne considered their
blood so very good that it could not
be made less blue by peasant admix-
ture. The Lords De Freyne consid-
cred their title so very good to con-
siderable section of the land of Con-
naught that they scorned the weak
ness of neighboring landlords who
sold out to their tenants, in canny
forethought of a time when no man
would pay rent.
When the tenants on the Dillon and
other estates adjoining bought out
their holdings they were able to un-
dersen and underbid the De Freyne
tenants in all local markets and for
all local public contracts. The De
Freyne tenants proposed to buy. What
presumption! What would become of
the title without the lands?
The people, advised by the United
Irish Leagues Standing Committee,
united in an agreement to pay no
rent, and to make his lordship come
to his senses. Police were drafted
s-% fv;a 81 4
and for the first time in it's history
that neighborhood became lawless.
Cattle were "houghed" or otherwise
mutilated, and the energetic "peelers"
are ever since suspected of these
crimes and of having fired shots into
many cabin. The reign of terror
lasted over a year, and in that time
there were many heart-scalding evic-
lions on the De Freyne estate.
His proud lordship next proceeded
to the destruction of the United Irish
League. He boosted that he would
accomplish it. He would imprison
Redmond and all the other leaders
for putting the people up to contu-
macy. But first he began court &C
tons against them for damages, so as
to weaken their resources for defend
ing the criminal accusations to come.
And now, as the newspapers state
in a brief paragraph, it is all
over Lord De Freyne has aban-
doned the civil suit and the criminal
processes. And he will sell out to
bis tenants, but not, of course, until
after the passage of the Land bill,
which aims to compel the tenants to
pay much more than he would be
