Mary Boyle o'ReiIIy,. Prison Commits.
sioner.

Governor Guild last week appointed
Miss Mary Boyle O'Reilly to the men,
bership on the Massachusetts Prison
Commission, from which Miss Marie
r. Collins had resigned after years
service. because Of the pressure of
other duties, says. the Boston Pilot.
Miss O'Reilly's appointments surpassed
all records for rapidity, only forty
eight hours having passed from the
time it was first rnooted until her
meeting with the wardens. The Gov
ernor's nomination was immediately
confirmed by his council, under sus-
pension Of rules, and Governor Guild
himself administered the oath of Office
to the new commissioner.
Miss O'Reilly has devoted all the
grown-up years of a still very short
life to works Of charity, public and
private. She will find new and pc
culiarly acceptable field for her gentle
m1n1StratlOnS IN connection with the
States penal and reformatory institu-
tions. Her distinguished father, John
Boyle O'Reilly, like Michael Davitt
and scores of other patriots, suffered
for Justices sake the horrors Of a
prison system unimaginable in Amer.
ica One of it's effects on his great
and magnanimous nature was a pro-
found sympathy with men legally re-
stricted Of liberty, whatever the cailse
and desire to uplift and benefit them
in every way possible. This spirit is
strong in the patriots daughter, and is
the best possible earnest Of her sue
cess. The appointment has given gen.
eral satisfaction.

DANIEL AS A CATHOLIC.
o'conneII Stood Out for His Religion
In the Wide Worlds Glare.

The name of Daniel O'Connell is
known Of in every civilized land in the
world and is immortalized in history
in connection with Catholic Emanci-
patton in Ireland and Britain, all
achievement mainly if not wholly due
to him and his wonderful powers as
an organizer, orator and political lead
er, referring to which Protestant
writer Of our own time, Thomas w.
Russell, M. p, in his ireland and the
Empire thus notes the great quail
ties of the great agitator.
1.-THE hour had come and with it the
man. O'Connell sprang into existence
as a great political force Catholic
Ireland rose as one man. A great and
just cause, a magnificent personality,
oratory that swayed and moved great
masses Of men as they have never
been swayed and moved before or
since swept all opposition like chat
before the wind
But great as was the illustrious Lib.
orator as political force, it is prob-
ably that it is his greatness as Il
Catholic and his devotion and powe,
as Catholic leader that will remain
permanent in history as his most
promin nent Characteristic. This at least
was the view presented by an Irish
Catholic prelate-Bishop Lyster Of
Achrorty-in an address at the recent
Annual Conference of the Young Mems
Society, held in Dundee, Scotland
from which we quote some interesting
passages:

rIADE FROn NATIVE ROOTS.
 @ SAFE AND RELIABLE.

That the roots of many'native plants, growing wild in our American forests, possess remarkable properties for the cure of human maladieS is well proven. Even the untutOred Indian had learned the curative value of some of these and taught the early settlers their uses. The Indian never liked work so he wanted his squaw to get well as soon as possible that she might do the work and, let him hunt. Therefore, he dug TpapOose root for her, for that was their great remedy for fe- male weaknesses. Dr. Pierce uses the same rOot-cailed Blue COhOsh-in his UFavOrite Prescription" Skillfully com bined with other agents that make it more effective than any other medicine in curing all the various weaknesses and painful Arrangements peculiar to women.
 Many afflicted women have been saved from the operating table aud the sur geOn's knife by the timely use of Doctor Pierce'S EaVOrite Prescription. Tender ness over the lower pelvic region, with backache, spells of dizziness, taintneSs, bearing down pains or distress should not go unheeded. A course of "EavOriJe Pre- ScriptiOn" will work marvellous benefit in all such cases, and generally effect permanent cure if persisted in for req Sonable length of time. The VEavOrite Prescription is harmless agent, being wholly prepared from native medicinal roots, without drop of alcohol in it's make up, whereas all other medicines, put up for sale through druggists for woman'S peculiar ailments, contain large quantities of spirituous liquors, which are very harmful especially to delicate women. UFavOrite Prescription con tains neither alcohol nor harmful habit forming drugs. All it's ingredients are printed on each bottle wrapper. It is powerful invigorating tonic, imparting health and strength in particular to the organs distinctly feminine. For weak and Sickly women, who are "worn-out," or facilitated, especially for women who work in store. office, or schOol-roOm, who sit at the typewriter or sewing machine, or beat heavy household burdens, and for nursing mothers, Dr. Pierce's FavOrite Prescription will prove priceless benefit because of it's health restoring and strength-giving power.
 For constipation, the true, scientific cure is Dr. Pierce'S Pleasant Pellets. Mild, harmless, yet sure.

A Break in the Line,

Foremr President James w Alex ander of the Equitable Life Assurance society, whose critical illness is an nounced has brought, through a system so insidiously established as to dull the consciences of it's members. shame upon one of the noblest families in America. That stern old Scotch Presbyterian, Dr. Archibald Alexander. the founder of the Princeton theologi- cal seminary could never have dreamed that the Alexander blood would de- Teiop a taint in the third generation. Neither could the famous Blind Preacher of Orange" whose eloauent eulogy by William Wirt, all school boys of an earlier generation have read, have believed that a great grand Son in whom flowed the Wadden and the Alexander blood would end the line in disgrace
 The blood preserved it's strength and purity through Rev. Dr. James wad dell Alexander and Rev. Dr. James Addison Alexander. the foremost of biblical scholars, the father and the uncle Of James w Alexander.
 MT. Alexander followed the foot steps of his forbears through the sacred halls of Princeton but took up law instead of theology. The law led to his asso- ciation with the Equitable under Pres ident Hyde, it's founder. Then when he succeeded to the presidency he came upon times which tried mems souls. The insurance companies grown rich with the funds of the policy holders drawn from them in larger sums than occasion demanded engaged in speculation which led to great financial success but to moral ruin and disgrace
 When President Alexander left Princeton and chose the law he enter ed upon 9 no less honorable course than if he had taken up theology. He preserved his rigid Presbyterianism. He sacrificed TO honor when he en- tered the insurance business and per haps now he can honestly exclaim as John A. Mccall did on his dying bed. i've lived a clean life. I've lived my life cs I saw it"
 But neither of them could see it. Both had so slowly wandered from the path of rectitude and in so large a company that they could not realize that there had been a deviation So accustomed had thcy become by de- grees to their surrounding that in the nature of things they could not dis eern the change. In the murky at mosphere of high finance, these men could not sec whether their lives were clean or not, and perhaps they had no consciousness of any act which might have mada them dirty.

Theoretically, Illinois imposes the death penalty for murder but that it has been practically abolished is shown by the fact that Chicago has had 759 murders in the past six years, and only the ninth execution took place yester- day. A legal abolition of the law would certainly produce better results than this kind of an enforcement of it.

wILKESBARRE, Pa, April s.
In the event of a strike of coal
miners the men will encounter a
new military force in Pennsylvania
-modnted bluecoats who are the
agents of the state.
The miners have dubbed them
PENNSYLVANIA Cossacks." There
are four troops of them, so men in
each troop. Two of these troops
are stationed in the hard coal re-
gion. The others, at the present
time, are in the bituminous field at
Greensburg and Punxsutawney.
The mounted officers of the law
are equipped with short pocket
clubs and Colts navy revolvers. In
times OF peace they are supposed to
patrol the country within a radius
of 20 miles of the barracks, but in
times of strike they will be ordered
to the scene.
That John Mitchell is not wrong
in charging that these men are
really strike breakers, as are the
coal and iron police, was shown re

while the remainder have served in
the national guard.
In the last strike the mine Off
Gals pressed into force a large mum,
Der of strike breakers, under the
guise of coal and iron police. Presi-
dent Mitchell at that time charged
that these men were hoodlums and
toughs picked up in the slums Of
large eastern cities.
While they were supposed to
guard the mine property their chief
business was to provoke violence,
which they did successfully in many
instances. Most of the far-heralded
"riOting" of the last strike was in
duced by these men, the press
agents for the operators sending
broadcast over the country exag-
gerated reports of violence and an
archy.
These reports finally caused suf-
ficient public sentiment against the
strikers to warrant Governor Stone
in calling out 10000 militia troops.
and the operators gave out state
ments that the strike would be
broken in two weeks. The strikers.
however, refused to be awed by the
display Of arms.
The new Pennsylvania Cossacks'
were really created by the state for
the operators to aid in strike break
ing.

The committee appointed by the
Central Labor union to investigate
the charges preferred against the
local laundry trust that some OF its
members have violated the state
laws by working its female en-
ployes more than 10 hours a day,
made it's report last night.
The committee finds that the law
has in some instances been violated
but recommends that the Central
Labor union take no steps to prose
cute such violations as the condi-
tions now existing in the local laun'
dries are open shop conditions and
a paltry fine would make no ma
terial change. In conclusion, the
reports says: ut may be that in
time, when flesh and blood can
stand no more, the laundry workers
will turn to the union men of this
community for relief, and when that
time comes we will be only too
glad to do all in our power to aid
