plant about large estates in Tipperary
county. The land is very we'll divided
among the people. There are 1.117 land
owners for a population Of 1920 and
1.044 $50 acres; which is an average OF
about 1000 acres each. In no other part
Of Ireland is the average holding so
large. OF the 1,117 farmers, 206 have
1000 acres each. 124 have between LOCO
and 1900, 1874 have 500 acres. 1876 have
900 acres. 1T have 200 acres. and 81
have 100 acres each. Only As have farms
as small as 50 acres. and 50 have Is acres
each. On tn othr hand, Lord Dunalley
and the Viscount Lismore are the only
landlords who have more than 10000
acres.
Lsmore is the Lord Of Tipperary and
the head Of the O'Callaghan family, who
were formerly princes Of the province Of
Munster and are descended from a
famous Milesian prince. The various
generations since history began have

TIPPERARY, August 8, 1908.
Its the deadest town in all ireland" said
a bookseller In Tipperary Of whom we were
buying some post cards. Il don't believe
there was ever q deader town than Tip
rar-ry (for that's the way they pronounce
iD. and everybody is going to America
who can get away" That seemed to be
the prevailing sentiment among the peo-
pie talked with. This Is the most pes
simistic community 1 have found In the
country. The people are without even a
single good word for their own town.
There's no business outside Of cattle and
datrying.'' said another merchant. Trade
is 80 dull that the shopkeepers are loafing
half tho day. But the people seem to
keep up their interest in politics, and
that they have some money left Is evil
dent. because at a meeting here the other
day EOS was collected in few minutes
for the expense fund Of the parliamentary
Irish party.
No Cabs in Tipperary Streets.
Outside in the streets there was a good
deal of activity. 1t was market day and
the farmers from all the surrounding
country were in town to sell their produce
and buy a stock Of supplies for the en-
suing week. But there was no vehicle,
not even a jaunting car. at the railway
station to take US to the hotel Evil
IDENTIFY nobody was expected. So we had
to do the best we could. We finally sue
ceeded in persuading a farmer who was
there with an INSIDE car to carry us
and our luggage. which he managed to
do by sitting on the shafts himself.
Afterward when we wanted to see the
town we couldn't find vehicle in the
street, although Tipperary is a town OF
5000 population. so the hotel proprietor
sent out to a livery stable for one.
The militia are having an annual en-
campment at Tipperary just now and the
streets are filled with smart looking
young men In uniform who seem to think

Not an Attractive Town.

''Tip-rar-ry," with the accent on the sec,
ond syllable. is the least attractive town
we have seen in ireland, and from ap-
pearanees one may accept the judgment
Of the gentlemen 1 have quoted on the
condition Of its business. The streets
are dirty, the houses are out of repair,
many business places and residences are
vacant and the windows are broken in.
On the outskirts of the town people are
living in cabins as primitive and as filthy
as any we have seen in the mountains.
well stocked, and, judging from the show
windows, they keep a superior class OF
goods.
Tipperary lies in the midst of a lovely
country. more level than that we have
been travelling through for the last three
weeks. but there are only a few patches
of timber and few gentle slopes, but
no peat boys, so far as we could see from
the railway train. The landscape reminds
me of the Western Reserve Of Ohio. with
the exception that the Silievenarmick hills
rise in the background to the height of
800 or 1000 feet. The AherloW river
waters the plain and runs through the
town. There doesn't seem to be much
cultivated ground in the neighborhood.
Fine Pastures.
There are long stretches of meadow In
which the farmers are now cutting the
hay and we can catch the perfume as
we pass through them II we stand at the
open windows of the car. Alternating
with the meadows are fine pastures.
where large herds Of sleek and fat cattle
and many yearlng colts and fOal mares
are feeding There are several large
stock farms in the neighborhood. and, as
this Is the season fer county fairs, the
Tipperary farmers are raking in prizes
for all kinds Of stock. In the town there
Is a creamery which, we are told. Is the
largest in Ireland. 1t employs 12O hands
and its butter is shipped almost entirely
to London.
The Plan Of Campaign.
The most interesting feature of Tppe-
rary is the new town lying on the out
skirts of the old, which represents an ex-
citing incident in Irish history. During
the land war Of 1887 the leaders of the
Irish party selected several landlords as
examples for boycotting. In order to at
country and create public opinion. This
was called THE plan Of campaign %
Among the places selected as storm cen
tiers were the Ponsonby estate. near Cork;
the Vandaleur estate: In County Clare: the
Defrayne estate. in Roscommon: the Mas
saure estate. in County Louth. and the
Barry estate, in Tipperary. These estates
were selected as backgrounds because
the landlords. who were treating the ten
ants badly. were very exacting and op-
pressive and furnished excellent examples
to illustrate the evils Of the Irish land
and tenantry system. Some Of the ten
ants were behind in their rents and be-
ing unable to pay. were threatened with
eviction unless they settled on or before
q certain date.

ness, but I couldn't get any one to ex-
plain why,
An Exodus to America.
At any rate Tipperary lost a great dea
OF its prosperity. as we'll as its CONNER
cial Importance, immediately after that
trouble. especially because It was fol.
lowed by a large exodus to the United
States. AS many Of the Barry tenants a.
could raise the money emigrated when
the support Of the Land League was
withdrawn from them. they refused t.
stay and surrender to the landlords. AL
the young people in the county caught thu
emigration fever and left for the United
States as fast. as they could get money
enough to buy steamship tickets. wa.
told that several of them had come back
bringing good deal Of money with
them. and were buying farms in the
ne1ghborhood, but tthey soon became dis
contented. The experience Of a few year.
In the United States units the Irish PEG
monotony Of life over here. And tn,
eagerness Of everybody to get to tn.
United States is very significant. Tn,
Jaunting car drivers, the hotel porters

working class that q traveller comes II
contact with always asks questions abou
the expense of the journey and the proba
bilities of securing employment In thu
United States. and they express their de-
termination to emigrate as soon as the,
can.
Wearing Of the Green.
The Tipperary people claim to be pur,
Irish. They declare that there is les,
mixed blood and purer Celtic pedigrees II
this county than anywhere else in Ire
land. but the same claim Is made else
where, and as 1t is there is no way Il
decide the dispute.
Tipperary also claims the authorship Of
that ancient and beautiful old air, 1.-THE
Wearing Of the Green" It is one of the
Oldest Of Irish melodies. but only modern
words are sung to it now. and there an
several versions. That which is claimed
by Henry Grattan Curran. who Is an ex.
cellent authority. to be the original waa
written at Tpperary and runs as fol.
lows:
II met with Napier Tandy,
And he took me by the hand,

 These little jackets are to be had in the shops in many different styles and rstterns of laces. If the design be good and the lace of good quality the kind does not matter much.
