Croker Gets Land Loan.

Richard Croker's latest achievement
proves again that he knows the value
of money.
The former Tammany boss has be-
come a --tenant-purchase under the
Irish land act of 1903. The land com
mission has advanced $4,000 to Mr.
Croker to pay for a farm, adjoining his
fine estate at Steilorgan. He had-rent-
ed the farm from Lord Carysfort.
To prove that Mr.. Croker ranks with
a Rothschild or a Morgan, it should be
stated that this $4,000 lent by the land
commission will be repaid, with 81 per
cent interest, in diminishing INSTALL
ments extending over sixty-eight years.
And this annual repayment will be 30
per cent less than the annual rent Mr..
Croker was paying for the farm.
Besides demonstrating his financial
ability. Mr.. Croker proved himself a
good lawyer in this transaction. He
offered S31, 800 for the farm and Lord
Carysfort accepted the offer Then
Mr.. Croker sent his lawyer to the land
commission to argue that under the
land act it should advance che money
to buy the farm. The commissioners
could not see it in that light Nothing
daunted, Mr.. Croker appeared in person
before the commissioners and argued
his claim with such shrewdness that
they saw a new light. They notified
him later that they would advance him
$4,000 Of the $31.500 he asked for.

RirreIl Promises Irish University.

over in Ireland Mr. Birrell is again
promising a satisfactory solution Of
the Irish university question. Speak
ing of it on Thursday, Nov. {. at the
inaugural meeting of the University
College Literary and Historical So
ciety, Stephens Green, Dublin. he said:
i pledge myself to do the very best
that mortal man can do in this next
session of parliament. and if I fail. why
then. gentlemen 1 can promise you
that you viii be troubled with me no
more" Success, then. in dealing with
the Irish University question is of vi
tai Importance TO Mr.. Birrell, seeing
what failure would mean. 1t will be
no small triumph for him if he finds
solution for this difficult problem
and places higher education in Ireland
upon a basis satisfactory to Catholics
and Presbyterians as well as to mem
bers of the Protestant Episcopal
church. But it is well that the chief
secretarys pledge should be clearly re-
corded. for since 1S45 when Sir Robert
Peel carried the bill founding the
Queens colleges there have been d
large number OF promises in this mat
ter which remained unfrlfilled and pro-
jeCts which proved failures. How Mr.
Birrell intends to carry out his prom
laid down by Mr.. Bryce or by a scheme
Of his own devising-there has been,
so far. nothing to indicate. Of this he
can rest assured-that if his scheme
gives evidence of a disposition to mete
cut equal justice the Catholics will
raise no needless or frivolous objec-
lions. They only desire that in draft
ing his bill he should keep before him
the principle. which they have assert
ed by resolution again and again, that
perfect religious equality involves
equality in all educational advantages
afforded by the state. The approval
which they gave to Mr.. Bryce's scheme
they are anxious to extend to Mr.. Bir-
rells. The chief secretary has an ex-
cellent opportunity of redressing a ma
tional grievance and. at the same time.

Irishman, through the most modern
and up-to-date teaching in economic

sources to the largest possible extent,

representatives soon would be brought
under the same flag. Timothy Hale,
Nationalist member of parliament for
the north division of Louth, wrote, al
so expressing his approval of the sug-
gestive terms of the agreement, but
requesting that the question of his re-
admission into the party should be de-
ferred.
Mr.. O'Brien, referring to this letter,
said that lit would be dngracious to
delay Timothy Healy's readmission.
1t is understood that the terms of the
proposed agreement are that the chief
work Of the coming session of parlia-
ment should be Chief Secretary Biz
rell's new university bill, that the agra
rian agitae5on-ip Ireland should be to
a great extent suspended and the eff
forts of the party devoted to securing
an amendment to the land acts through
further conferences with the land
lords. while preparations should be
made to raise the home rule question

eral election.

STORIES OF SCOTCH JUDGES.
tnduIged In Levity When Human Life
Was at Stake.

Lord Salvesen in an address at
Edinburgh recalled the old days when
human life was held very cheap and
judges frequently indulged in levity
when life was at stake.
On one occasion Sir Francis Bacon
was nightly importuned" by male
factor to save his life. All appeals
failed and the culprit at length
pleaded for mercy on account of his
kindred. Your name," said he, lis
Bacon and my name is Hog. and In
all ages Hog and Bacon are so nearly
kindred that they are not to be sepa'
rated" AYE, but replied the judge.
you and I cannot be kindred except
you be hanged. for Hog is not Bacon
until It be well hanged"
Similar callousness was evinced by
Scottish judges even as late as the
18th century. Lord Braxfield seemed
to have taken a positive pleasure In
obtaining convictions In cases and 1t
was he who told an unfortunate cui
prit that he was very clever fellow
but that he would be name the waur
O. a hanging"
On another occasion, when this
Judge noticed juryman who was
personal friend entering the court he
exclaimed: Come ava Mister. come
ava. and help me to hang few O
they damned scoondrels."
In 1870 Lord Kaimes presided At
the trial OF a man named Matthew
Hay. with whom he had been in the
habit Of playing at chess. He summed
up against the prisoner and when he
was convicted exclaimed. That's
checkmate to you. Matthew.
