that from 1850 to 1903 100000 people
fed from the land that the ancient
poets tell us flowed with milk and
honey. There are no records of emil
grafton during the forties; but in the
black and dread famine years of that
decade an endless line of fleeing exiles
belted the Atlantic ocean, and the
broken heart-cry of the emigrant rode
upon every breeze that blew, through
these dire years, between the old Ire
land and the new. Today the emigra-
ton rate is almost equal to the death
rate. The pessimist may well prophesy
that he who would, half a century
hence, seek Ireland must, like the fool
in the Scriptures, have his eyes in the
ends of the earth. Thank God that we

M CUNT CHARLES, Donegal, Ire
4tA land, May 21.-There was a GU
rious case In the Dublin courts the 9TH
er day, when man was tried for the
crime-of all crimes in the calendar
of marrying his mother-in-law. Sur
prising to relate. too, he was a Scotch
man, John Lundy, of Dundee. The ages
old character of "Canniness" which
his countrymen enjoyed, this man has
seriously jeopardized. The man was
>acquitted-as all sympathetic people
will agree it should have been-he
was acquitted by the jury on the
ground that he did not know he was
committing a crime. His counsel asked
that a sailors claspknife, which had
been taken from him on his arrest lest
he do himself grevious bodily harm un-
der the pangs of separation from his
mother-in-law, should be returned to
him. The court ordered its return; and
then his counsel humbly suggested the
man should get the Victoria Cross!
The court remained silent.
AS this year, 1904, is the Tom Moore
centenary, the Irish National Literary
society is bestirring itself to get up in
Dublin a suitable memorial to Moore
Since the long-past day of the poets
death our metropolis has certainly been
rather backward in coming forward to
DO public honor to his memory, and it
VIII be well If proper recognition be
given even at this late day. OF course
good body Of the very best Irishmen
do not regard Moore as by any means
our national poet. Some of them even

county Cavan sent him there to rep
resent 1t. Having carefully prepared a
speech upon one of the burning topics
or the day, he arose from his seat and
began: 'Mr. Speaker, conceive"
here the great essayist came to a full
and sudden stop. Then he shifted his

the great man, frightened to death by
the sound of his own voice, and his

DOCTOR FRISKS HIM
Newark Business Man Robbed

business on Saturday, ordered a neat

Mr.. Ward has reported to the Newark
police that while the alleged doctor was
applying the treatment, which consisted
OF pasting strips Of adhesive plaster on
his back in the form Of an asterisk. his
nngers were busy in removing from the
clothing of the patient a diamond shirt
stud, gold watch and chain and $50
dollars in money.
The man for whom the police are asked
to hunt calls himself "Dr. Colder" He
visited the Ward carriage repository on
Saturday During the conversation Incl
dent upon his selection of a neat $3.50
vehicle he fell into discussion OF Mr.
Wards health. Mr.. Ward admitted that
ne wasn't feeling especially spry. The
customer declared that he could apply a
method of treatment that was a sure
cure. He was invited to try it, and yes

patriot, moreover. The question of
their accuracy or inaccuracy of judg-
ment can hardly be settled satisfac-
torily, though indeed a great deal of
circumstantial evidence can be adduced
upon their side of the debate. But
apart from this, there cannot be any
doubt but that the gentle and un-
fortunate James Clarence Mangan was
poet with whom Moore could not
compare-a poet wonderfully rich in
the imaginative quality. touching,
heart-reaching, powerful, in his mode
OF expression; and Irish, too. in every
hber of him-Irish, too, in his grand
qualities; Irish in his shortcomings;
Irish in his wonderful strength, and
irish in his pitiable weakness. Yes,
while the memory of Mangan survives
the claims of Moore to be our national
poet can never be established. Tom
Moore pleased our ears, but poor Clar-
ence Mangan found his way into our
hearts.
1t seemed very strange to me when I
discovered that so little was known of
this wonderful and absorbingly inter
esting genius-Mangan-among the lit
erary people in America genius so
strikingly resembling in many particu-
lars their own unfortunate genius, Ed
gar Allan Poe-a resemblance not mere
ly IN intellectual character and points
of conduct, but even in the quality of
odd rhymes and in the subject and
handling OF some poems, notably the
poem, The Bells" In spirit, though,
these geniuses differed Mangan was
possessed Of a pure idealism, and his
nature was sweet and gentle. Of
course the reason why Mangan has not
been better known TO Americans is be-

Mccormick notice that her services would not be

IN her place but when Mrs Mccormick declined 70

ately, taking a considerable number OF her sub
ordinates with her M, Caldwell Immediately be-
thought himself Of the capable young woman who
wrote his letters for him, and ghtway she
was introduced into the breach. Miss Bartlett
proved fully equal 70 the situation With the help

DIsREsPECT FOR YOUTH.

Apropos OF the subject OF Juvenile dscourtesy
which the Exchange proposes for discussion I
would like TO say that think most children treat
their elders much better than the latter deserve
Disrespect for age Is not graceful trait but it
more brutal and much less mschevous than
the dsrespect for youth which is common that
fl IS accepted for the most part as a matter of
course. Among people who make any claim 10 be-
ing civilized 4 stranger is usually treated with spe
ciaI consideration but how do treat the chill
dren who come strangers and pilgrims among
US with everything to learn about our manners and
customs? We laugh at their mistakes, ignore their
questions or give them foolish and false answers
play upon their passions, their affections and
aversions for own vulgar amusement; We dis
regard their wishes, and force our attentions. our
kisses and caresses. upon them whether they want
them not. then have the efrontery 10
expect that they shall treat us with respect. The
wonder TO is that they ever acquire any respect
at all for such creatures.
There is no doubt that the manners OF American
children bad. but are the manners of their
elders. Bad manners, in fact, seem TO be regarded
in some quarters the hallmark OF good social
position. Whether things worse here than else

STREET PUDDLES NAMED.
Lake Dalton and ScanneH Creek
South of Bryant Park.

Three weeks have passed since Commissioner
William Dalton OF the Department OF Public
Works. in Manhattan told Superintendent
George F. Scannen of the Bureau of Highways
that he might dispense with red tape and re-
pave Fortieth-st., between Fifth and Sixth aves..
at once The next day the superintendent OF
highways said that the order had been given
10 the asphalting company The residents OF
the street, which is the south boundary OF
Bryant Park, think that there must have been
a Tammany string of some sort to the order,
as no effort has been made TO bring the street
TO its normal condition
few days ago The Tribune told how famous
the Fortieth-st. mud puddles had become for
of the netshbOrhOod. Now the puddles have
outlived their usefulness in that direction.
They have become TOO dirty even for the dirt
loving children, and there IS an odor about
them that Is too offensive, even II the green
scum that covers them makes a fine pie filling.
We have named the puddles this Unfor-
tunate street, said a prominent business man
VINO lives in the block TO a Tribune reporter
yesterday. This big one in front of No. 5 is
Lake Dalton. in honor of the Commissioner. The
muddy stream which connects Lake Dalton with
that swamp UP the street is ScannelI Creek.
Darlington Swamp is so called in honor OF the
Commissioner Of Health who refuses to
denim the unhealthy space. BY looking closely
you will notice that the puddle has become a.
prize breeding place for mosquitoes To me they
look as If they were of the species that carry
malaria, but l am not expert. and perhaps
they are simply pestiferous. If there was an
eioner Palas. but the hideous advertising fence
which he strung around the Public Library
building is sufficient to keep his memory green

for the public to rush to see it. It promises to
remain indefinitely"
