Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1907-05-03

Clarke Luby and Charles Kickham as
editors of the Irish People, the Fenian
organ Of the eos. This paper, which
boldly advocated physical force as the
only effective method of righting Ire
lands wrongs, then more numerous
than now, was suppressed in 1865 by
the government. O'Leary was arrest
ed, tried and convicted and was SEN
fenced to 20 years penal servitude
Five of these years he spent in Jail In
1870 he was released, but for Is years
was obliged to live in France. being
denied admittance to his own land.
After 20 years Of exile he returned to
the country of his birth and devotion
and spent the balance of his DAYS in
Dublin, surrounded by a company Of
young nationalist litterateurs, some of
whom have won distinction in the re-
public of letters.
O'Leary was born in Tipperary in
1880 and received his education in
Cork, Dublin and Paris. AS boy he
Joined the Young Ireland movement
and had to fee the country because
of futile attempt to rescue two Of the
revolutionists of '4S, who were execut-
ed at Clonmel. In Paris, where he
settled for a time. he studied ,nedi-
cine and with his diploma returned to
Dublin to practice his profession. He
was then drawn into the Fenian move
ment, with it's sequel to him of prison
stripes and suffering.
OLeary was deep student of his
tory and literature and was an able
and forceful writer. All through his
life the call of Kathleen nj Houlihan
was ever in his ears and he died as
he lived devoted lover Of his coun-
try. While the movement with which
he was SO intimately connected in the
eos failed in it's specific purpose, it
awakened English statesmen to a real

The New Field Piece.

The extreme effective range of the
new field piece with which the Ameri-
can army is being equipped is about
four and a half miles, in which we
have a trifing advantage over the Jap
anese, and target practice has shown
that the degree Of accuracy obtainable
is nothing less than marvellous. In
the initial trials forty-fye shots were
fired at targets set at 1000 and $500
yards, the first fifteen at the shorter
distance, the second fifteen at the
longer, and back to the shorter range
for the last fifteen. The average time
of the shots was four seconds apart.
and the percentage of hits was 7O-odd.
Experience has proved that the Ameri-
can artilleryman does as we'll in action
as in target practice some experts say
the japanese does better; but be that
as it may, we are able to hold our
own against the Arisika gun.-Every-
body's Magazine.

Julius Cesar is credited with the
first considerable plans for the res
toration and adornment Of the old city,
for even in his day, remote as we view
it. Rome was regarded as very an
cient city. His architectural plans,
although they were not completed by
him, served to direct the policy Of his
successors. For the next few centuries
the rebuilding and embellishing of
carry out the ideas money was spent
without stint. Augustus, in addition
to turning his attention to restoration
generally, added few temples of his
own. The most important of these were
that to Mars Ultor, in the center of the
Forum, which he added to the Julian,
and of Apollo on the Palatine He also
built the portico of Octavia, the Thea
tire of Marcellus and the mausoleum in
the Campus Martius.
For half a century Augustus built
and built. The populations Of whole
districts were turned out and their
dwellings RACED to make room for mag
nificent structures. At the close of his
career he said he had found a city Of
brick and left 1t of marble. Nero had
a taste for grand architecture, even If
lie had other tastes which were inhar-
monious, and so extravagant and eccen-
trio were his ideas that, after having
partly constructed a temple to Claudius,
he tore it down to build wing to his
palace. Rome should remember him
as the father of improved streets. He
had the courage to widen thoroughfares
and the daring to tear down buildings
50 that new streets could be laid out.
Vespasian restored the national tenn
pie, and Domitan, besides his splendid
additions to the imperial palace, was
so careless of money that he had the

During the Fourteenth, Fifteenth and
sixteenth centuries the structures sur
rounding the Forum were destroyed,

liciously, but through cupidity. Instead
Of bringing III new stone for building
operations, basilicas were torn down
for the available marble they assayed.
The Forum was turned into quarry.
Worse than that, it became the site for
limekilns, and masterpieces Of marble
were thrown into kilns to become
commercial lime. There were artists
in those times, and they demonstrated
with the authorities against the de-
struction. Among those who made vain
appeals to save the beautiful structures
Of the past were the poet Petrarch and
the painter Raphael.
But the destruction continued. Some

turned into a quarry to feed builders
and the burners of lime, the place fell
into disrepute. In the course Of CEN
fury it became a mere rubbish heap,
and by degrees raised a mound over
the relics of the past. Before this time,
however, Rome had, owing to various
reasons, become depopulated, and dur
ing the seventy years the Popes resided
in Avignon interest in the city almost
ceased.
Work of Excavation.
For two centuries the Forum and
many of the ruined buildings were COW
cred and forgotten. In 1913, under
Pope Leo X, Michael Angelo began the
first modern excavations upon the site
of the ancient structures. For the next
three centuries excavations were car
ried on in a dilatory manner, but in
1870 the first genuine attempt to I'M
cover the past was begun, under the
direction Of Signor Rosa. Since 1893,

A small black-and-white fox terrier,

In the winter of 1901, when Jack"
Wade and J. Dalton, convicted of muir

fellow named Smith, who had been held
as witness against them, was also in
the Jail. One night Smith, who was
in cell of corridor 4, having obtained
a saw iii some way, started in to sever
one of the bars Of his cell. He had
been at work but short time, but his
saw was good one, and he had cut
quite a piece Of the bar, when Mike
caught the sound of the saw and set
up an alarm.
'The dog not only barked Justify"
said Mitchell, "but he came from his
box to my door and would give me no

Constructive Activity Ends.
With the death Of Constantine, A. D.
337, the period of constructive activity
came to an end, and about that time
the importation Of beautiful foreign
marbles, much used in interior decOra-
ton, ceased. Rome was not finished,
but interest in building seems to have
terminated, although under Theodore
an attempt at revival in building was
made.
The Caesars were no more, the East
ern capital became the seat Of the en-
pire, wars had impoverished the coun-
try and the recognition Of Christianity
as the state religion naturally caused
the pagan temples to fall into disuse.
From this time the ruin Of the ancient
city may be dated. 1t is true that upon
the authority of Procopius we are told
that in the sixth century many Of the
monuments we're uninjured. In the
wear sos the erection Of the column of
Phocas, which probably was composed
Of a fragment from some other struct-
ure, proves that some Of the old taste
for building still survived. So late as
the ninth century 1t is known the
Forum-that Is, the Forum of the Cae-
sars-was still unburied, yet in the
seventeenth century, this famous space,
the scene Of much Of early Rome's
moving history, was buried under

Greensboro, Ala, september 13.-
The 14-year-old daughter Of ALI John
son, substantial farmer living four
miles from Greensboro, was assault
ed by a negro yesterday afternoon at
o'clock. Mr.. johnson was OF on the
farm and the mother in.tise front Of
the house, which Is set apart as a
store. Hearing her daughter give q
peculiar cry Of distress. she rushed
back to find thai the black fiend had
left the room and was fleeing across
the yard.
News was at once sent to Green's
boro and Sheriff Gewin hastily gath
ering together large posse and ac-
companied by his bloodhounds went
at once to the home. The dogs were
put on the track, but UP to this time
tney nave not captured the negro.
Every man in town who could secure
horse, is out securing the coun-
try. Both livery stables have hired
every horse owned by them.
The crime is a peculiarly heinous
one, because of the infirmity of the
young girl, she having always been
mentally deficient and has never
spoken. The family has always taksr
the tenderest care of her and have
never left her alone. The mother had
just stepped to the front room to wait
on customer, leaving her daughter
in her room, when the deed was done
The whole country is aroused and
the negro will without doubt be land
ed in jail before morning.
