in 1876 O'Leary went to England and
met Weston in a six-day match. Inn
mense interest was taken in the out
come. o'Leary again won, covering
$40 miles while Weston made but $40.
The Irish members of parliament then
gave O'Leary a banquet at the West
minister Palace hotel. at which he was
presented with a silver service, with
the names of all his hosts engraved
upon it.
Returning to the United states,
OLeary engaged in a six-day race at
Cincinnati, winning with ease. Some
months after this he won diamond
belt for a "go-as-you- please contest,
$4,000 in prize money being added, at
Madison Square Garden, with a rec.
ord of 527 miles. In 1882 he went to
France and gave an exhibition of walk
ing before the French president and
the Chamber of Deputies. From
France he went to Australia, where he
won six important matches. He was
given banquet in Sydney and re-
ceived d testimonial from the citizens.

one which strikes a note of universal
human sympathy is best evidenced by
the wide use which has been made of
it outside of Kentucky. The National
Government has used it extensively in
the cemeteries at Gettysburg, Arlington
and vicksburg, tile entire poem being
reproduced Off Separate blocks of
stone in the latter instance. 1t is also
significant that "The Bivouac of the
Dead" should have been inscribed on
the monument in honor Of those SOL
diers who died in the Crimea.
1t even now thrilling to think of
that scene in the cemetery at Frank
fort that summer day sixty years ago.
The States dead lay around him under
the primeval forest trees which crown
a beautiful. blum of the Kentucky river.
In a close circle around the newly
erected monument lay OHara's own
comrades of the Mexican War. The
monument itself. was impressive and
bore the names of battles and of the
Kentuckians who had engaged in them.
Some had fought the Indians at Mount
Pleasant, at Boonesborough and in the
disastrous battles of Blue Licks" and
'Estills Defeat" They had participant
ed alike in the defeats of Harmar and
ST.. Clair and the brilliant victory of
Anthony Wayne at Fallen Timbers.
Others had fought the British at Kings
Mountain during the Revolution, where
Ferguson. CORVALLIS best. lieutenant,
was defeated and killed, and at New
Orleans in the War of 1912.
Last Of all came the names of those
who had fallen at Monterey and Buena
Vista. Deeply moved by the events
which had just TRANSFERRED, who can
think what a flood of emotion must
have flowed through the mind of Theo-
dore O'Hara as for the first time the
expectant multitude heard the Impress

The muffled drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo;
No more on life.s. parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few.
On fame's eternal camping ground
Their. silent tents are spread,
And glory guards, with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead. :

Upon the Threshold.
Once more we stand with half -reluct-

Upon the threshold of another year;
That line where past and present seem

With what is past, wish only to for
Say, canst thou smile when memory's

Wouldst thou live DER again those
changing days,
Or bid them fade forever into night?
A solemn question, and the faltering
heart
Scarce dare say YES" yet will not
quite say "No';'' '~ -
For joy and sadness both have played
their part
In making up the tale of long ago."
Here memory sees the golden sum

Across the path of life and shine
awhile:
And now the picture changes like a
dream,
And sorrow dims the eyes and kills
the smile.

THE. SUNDAY PAPER
Influence, Generally Lowerins-Worse
Than. the Dime Novel.

!. IMAM tne Dime Novel.
In a splendid ywritten article on
'"rhe American. Sunday Newspaper"
in the Ninteenth Century, Frank Fox
craft says among other things:
1.-THE latest development of Sunday
journalism is the colored comic sec
tion," which flaunts itself on the out
side. of: most off theylarger Sunday pa
pers. Crudely drawn, daubed with
vivid reds and green's and yellows, and
conveying with nthe very feeblest hui
NOR, it is like a,."comic valentine" ex-
tended, and multiplied by forty or fif-
ty. Here is a specimen from a met
ropolitan Sunday paper. One page is
taken up with fourteen pictures rep
resenting small boys nightmare;
another series Of twelve pictures por-
trays, the incoavenient. consequences
of Little samry's Sneeze." Another
page Of twelve pictures describes the
pranks of an urchin- who puts dress
on his dog, and passes it off for little
girl. These are fair specimens of the
type: What can be the mental condi-
ton of the adult person who thinks
them even family funny? These gau-
dy atrocities have now had a run of
several years. There are cheerful OPP
timists who look for reaction against
Ttnyy Sc
sible that the Sunday paper should re-
main stationary: that these pictures
are las cheap and maudlin as can be
conceived Of; and that therefore any
change must be for the better. This
sounds plausible; but there can be no
assurance that there are not yet low
er depths than have been reached. Ten
years ago the present monstrosities
would have seemed incredible.
The influence Of the Sunday news
paper in dissipating Intellectual ener-
gy and lowering standards of taste in
art and literature is not easily meas
ured. II In these respects 1t works along
the same lines as the indefinitely null
tiplied ten-cent magazines which
strew the counters of the news stands.
But 1t reaches a lower level and
achieves wider circulation. The typ
ical American, is a more omnivoroM
reader than any other national type.
He leaves behind him in the street
cars and railroad trains a trail of dis
carded papers and magazines with
which he has .beguiled his journey. 1t
Is pity that, for his one leisure day
of the week, he should find nothing
better than what is provided for. him
by the average Sunday newspaper
And it is deplorable to think of. the
children in American homes turned
loose among the tawdry attractions OF
these publications. 80.

So I never need envy a being on

If men would wash the dishes
And cook and bake and sweep
And keep the fires replenished
And put the kids to sleep
And at the family washtub
Would labor like a horse,
There wouldn't so many
Sad cases of divorce.
If men would hand their honeys
Throughout the livelong year
Their pay without extracting
The price of one small beer,
Would come home in the evening
And by the fireside sit,
For want of paying business
Divorce courts all might quit.
If women never scolded
Or said, II told you so,''
Or asked their darling husbands
To take them to a show
And smiled till only sunshine
Could live about the place.
The separation lawyers
Might hunt some other case.

METROPOLITAN BOARD WANTS A
GREAT RESERVOIR IN BOURNE
VALLEY ON THAMES.

LONDON, Jan. 1O.-The metropoli-
tan water board has abandoned for the
present the scheme to bring London s
water from Wales and will ask parlia-
ment to authorize the building, at a
cost of e1,65O,OOO ($S,25O,OOO), of a
reservoir in Bourne valley, to be ten
square miles in area and capable of
impounding 55,OOO,OOO,OOO gallons. 1t
is estimated that this reservoir, by in
creasing the daily supply of water
from the Thames from $4,000, 900 gal
Ions to $50 100000, would provide for
all the needs of London until 1860,
when the population is expected to
reach 100000.

a dam half mile long so made as to
admit of its gradual raising in accord
