The shillalah. accounted Ireland's ma
tional weapon Of defense. was original
ly common blackthorn stick, but in
modern times it has been replaced by
the more wiry ash sapling. The real
shillalah is a young shoot Of the sloe
shrub or blackthorn pulled by the root
from the crevice Of some rock. After
being trimmed 1t is placed in the smoke
of turf peat, which softens the hard
fiber. and when 1t has reached con-
dition as plant as rubber 1t is straight
ened. When cooled in the air 1t be-
comes as strong and firm as iron. The
trimming process Is then continued
and when 1t Is desired to make par
ticularly handsome weapon the spus,
so effective in melee or faction fight
are ornamented with small brass nails.

THE DICTIONARY.
Its Story May Lack Plot, but II Is De.
cidedIy Interesting.

eidedfy Interesting.
Whoever says dull as Il dictionary"
cannot be very familiar with one. We
may sympathize with the old lady who
remarked of the dictionary that she
didn't think much of the story" but
nevertheless no one can use good
unabridged edition with any frequency
and not attest to tile fact that it Is
full of the most fascinating reading.
Indeed. notwithstanding the old lady's
opinion, the dictionary often exerts
charm not unlike that of an exceeding
7 Iy interesting novel. To be sure, the
narrative lacks consecutiyeness, but
the work is full of most interesting
stories
When we go to look up q word we
are in doubt about we are attracted to
other words in its neighborhood; they
enlist our curiosity; we are impelled to
find out their meanings, too, and to
make ourselves acquainted with their
life histories. Very strange things,
most unsuspected things. they often
tell us. Occasionally a very familiar
word that we thought we knew all
about reveals most remarkable quail
ties-much as some commonplace
nelghbor who for years we have nod
ded to in passing to and fro, regarding
him as an excellent but rather dull in
dlvidual, may chance to join us in
walk down the street or sit beside US
on the train and casually betray traits,
interests, qualities of mind or heart
that entirely change our opinion Of
him. So we may read on and on, per-
haps forgetting all about the word
that we set out to look up, and finally
have to turn to it again to reassure
ourselves as to the precise points we
were In doubt about.-Boston Herald.

his life. He died in two hours from in

purchased last fall

General Wallace favorites in itera-
ture have had a very marked influence
in his works. In prose and fiction his
great ideals have been Bulwer, Kingsley,
Goldsmith, Scott, Irving and occasion
ally Thackeray; in poetry, Homer,
Dante, Shakespeare, Milton, Tennyson
and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. picture makers
all Of them, whose art is beautifully re-
fected in General Wallace pages.
Belthazar, Simonides and Ben Hur
himself are his favorite characters in
"Ben Hur,' and his favorite chapter in
"Ben Hur" is that toward the last where
Ben Hur describes to his two friends his
experiences in following the Christ.
In his library is a case devoted to
"Ben Hur' volumes alone in many dif-
ferent languages, sent him from various
publishing houses all over the world
But the one he loves best Of all is a Ben
Hur'' in raised characters for the blind,
sent him by Louisville publishing firm.
About year after ''Ben Hur" was
written General Wallace was appointed
minister to Constantinople by President
Garfield. AS the general was leaving the
White House the President accompanied
him down the steps with his arm famil-
iarly thrown over the general S shoulder.
He was thinking Of "Ben Hur' and
could not restrain his admiration of the
book ''Let us have another book he
said, with it's scenes and incidents in
Constantinople the duties Of your posi-
ton will afford plenty of time for it. -
This was the inspiration Of ''The Prince
of India' In four years General Wal
lace returned to Charlottesville, richly
laden with material for his new book. 1t
was published in 1874. Its pages are
most fascinating and events move rap
idly and without tediOusness to the
reader from 1445 to 1853, when Moham-
med II. sacked the city and entered the
holy Saint Sophia.
There are pictures in the ''Prince Of
India which time will never dim-the
"Passing of the Caravans, as strong in
movement and delicate in imagery as
DeQuincey's "Flight Of the Tartar
Tribe" Constantine s last afternoon in
the High Residence; the scene in Saint
Sophia, whittier Count Corti had con-
Quoted the princess to await the coming
Of Mohammed. Where in all literature
has an author laid his ear so near the
heart Of Mother Nature; so touched the
hidden springs as when Mohammed
caught sight of the count s face and says,
ooh! my poor Mirza!" Greeks, Turks
and their fierce religious differences all
vanish in the delicate touch of those four
words, and his loyal friend, as men

fame years before her distinguished hus-
band brought out the "Fair God, and

a contemporary of Longfellow, George

To see if the sleepy blossoms
Have begun to open their eyes;
Running a race with the wind,
His step as light and fleet,
Under my window l hear
The patter of little feet.
Anon to the brook he wanders
In swift and noiseless flight.
Splashing the sparkling ripples
Like fairy water sprte;
No sand under fabled river
Has CLEANS like his golden hair,
No pearly seashell is fairer
Than his slender ankles bare;
Nor the rosiest stem of coral
That bushes in oceans bed
Is sweet the flush that follows
Our darlings airy tread.
From a broad window my neighbor
Looks down on our little tot
And watches the poor mans blessing
1 can not envy his lot.
He has pictures books and music,
Bright fountains and noble Trees
Flowers that bloom in vases
And birds from beyond the seas;
But never does childish laughter
His homeward footsteps greet
His stately halls ne'er echo
To the tread of innocent feet
This child is our speaking picture,
A birding that chatters and sings;
Sometimes sleeping cherub-
(Our other one has wings);
His heart is a charmed casket,
Full Of all that's cunning and sweet
And no harp strings hold such music
AS follows his twinkling feet.
when the glory of sunset opens
The highway by angels trod,
And seems to unbar the city,
Whose builder and maker is God;
Close by the crystal portal
I see by the gates Of pearl
The eyes of the angel
A time-born little girl.
