cUNARD STILL HOLDS OUT

NEW YORK, August 1s.--Among
the. passengers who arrived on the
White Star liner Celtic yesterday was
John r. AIcClary, third assistant
postmaster-general. returning from
a business trip on behalf OF the de-
partment to European countries. He
has interviewed steamship and govern
ment officials In connection with the
ocean post-ofices. which are operated
on all OF the important transatlantic
lines. except tho Cunard, French and
Holland-American lines.
The trip was brought about by the
notice from the North German Lloyd
officials that they were dissatisfied
with the compensation received for the
work, and at the expiration of the
present contract would discontinue the
service.
The arrangement calls for a postal
clerk from both OF the countries be-
tween which the vesse, plies, and two
helpers Jointly engaged. These men
sort the mail forwarded on the vessel.
SO that when port is reached the let
/, IS are ready for instant dispatch to
destination. saving from twenty-four
to forty eight hours In delivery.
The success of the arrangement Is
so marked that the postal authorities
have been 10th to discontinue even one
route Instead they have planned TO
establish new post offices'on the other
lines, so Mr.. McClary went abroad 10
consult with the other countries.
The postal officials, considering the
complaint of the North German Lloyd
Justified have arranged to pay larger
price. Efforts were also made TO ef-
feet a similar arrangement with the
three lines still holding out, but the
Cunard wanted SO iuch that IL was
out of the question. There is strong
probability that the service VIII soon

IRELAND AS 1T REALLY is.
Irish Less criminaIly Inclined Than
the Inhabitants of England.

The accepted Irish type of the masses
the stage Irishman-many be anus
ing, says The Outlook, but he SmaclIs
also of Incidence, thriftlessness, a ten
dency to drink and even a lack Of GER
tain primary virtues. Fortunately these
failings are not characteristic of the
Irish people as a whole. In every
quarter of the globe Irishmen and wo-
men have shown themselves hard
workers; if they have not displayed
the same energy at home it is because
of the agricultural oppression and de-
preston, because of unsanitary dwell
ings and insufficient food.
AS to drink, contrary to the general
supposition, the Irishman spends less
average on Its than does the English
man or Scot. Furthermore, md even
more surprising to many, statistics
show the Irish to be less criminaily in
clined than are the inhabitants of
Great Britain: in particular, as TO sex
ual morality, the stranger in Ireland
is invariably surprised by the rcctitude
of the people.
In 1S41 Ireland's population was esti-
mated at 100000; in 1901 at 440O, 000
Thus in sixty years the population fell
by nearly 100000. America has won
what Ireland has lost. But this is not
all. Quality as well as quantity is in
volved. The emigrants have generally
been in LIES full vigor; most of those
who have remained have been phys-
cally, mentally and industrialIy def
Gent Meanwhile the burden of taxa
ton has enormously increased. It is

ireland, by which the lordly river

I'm was recently unveiled in the Chris

in honor Of the gifted writer who was
born in that far-famed municipality.
National interest was manifested in
the ceremony, and lovers of literature
everywhere will applaud the tribute to
the memory Of one who long before he

1.-THE Lily Of Killarney" Story, play
and opera have their thousands of ad-
mirers today as they had when they
were first written. Many of Grifin's
poems rank among the sweetest of our
lyrics, AMI his tragedy, "Gisippus." is
one Of the few acta,ble pieces of modern
literary drama. In casting UP the value
of Griffin's many sided work his youth
must be taken into account, and also
the fact that while engaged in his more
SeiiOuS anu cOOSen1al occupations he
had to struggle for existence in Lon
don, and was forced to become a liter
airy drudge
The memorial schools which OCCUPY
the site of the old court house. where
Griffin as a youth reported the trial of
Seaman for the murder of the colleen
Bawn," very fittingly commemorate his
memory. When some time ago a me-
mortal was projected it was felt that
the best tribute, one that he would
most appreciate, would be the recon-
struction and enlargement of the in
adequate buildings in Bridge street
where the Christian Brothers carry on
the work to which Gerald Griffin turned
when tired of the vanity of the world.
The project has been executed by the
Christian Brothers, and for the paying
off of the debt involved an appeal will
be made, not merely to the people of
Limerick, who hold the fame of Griffin
as one of their precious possessions.

man for his genius and sacrifice.

HE hinge oE AUTUMN.

Red CLEAN the leaves on yonder trees,
To later turn to gold;
A hint of frost is in the breeze,
And bleak's the distant void.
The smoke curls upward slow and
white,
And far across the hill
There glints the roadway in the night
The morn is crisp and chill.
The sun sinks desolate to rest
Behind the church's spire;
The afterglow's dull in the west,
Where once were skies of fire.
The songsters' tunes are not so sweet,
The frail belated blooms
Give hint of winters ice and sleet,
Low hanging clouds and glooms.
The moon across the dome rides white,
The skies are jeweled set;
The dew falls soft from out the night,
The grass is sparkling wet.
The spoil that vine and tree have doled
Is safely housed with care;
The stubble CLEANS like FURNISHED
gold
And-autumn's everywhere.

it of interest to recall an incident in
the political history of Limerick in
which Gerald Griffin, as an envoy on
behalf of the citizens of Limerick
went over to London to have per-
scral interview with Thomas Moore.
The electors of the city desired to offer
Moore this highest honor in their
power-a seat in the house of commons
as member for Limerick in the Irish
rational interest-and came to the con-
clusion that the offer could not be
more fittingly made than through the
medium of Gerald Griffin, who, like
Moore himself, had achieved an I'M
dying fame as one of Ireland's sweet
est poets and noblest opponents of ma
uonal aspirations. Moore was con-
strained to decline the honor which was
offered him by a delegate, who en-
HANGED its graces and made its refusal,
which circumstances rendered I'M
avoidable, a still greater sacrifice.
