TT IS NOT CREDTTABLE.

Judged by a recent paragraph in The New York American--and it is fully endorsed by The Brooklyn Eagle-the city of New York is fast building up reputation that should be a lesson for other cities to study and profit by. The town" says The American, lis overrun by malefactors of every black description. Burglars are blowing safes in the thick, rich business sec tions at open noon.

Peo- pie of all nations, civilized. half-civil- ized and barbarian. are to be found among it's inhabitants. What is worse, 1t has become a sort of city of refuge for the lowest. most debased and most criminal people from all the earth. There they find a harbor and oppor- tunity to ply their evil trades and oc- equations in their own several ways and largely without interference or in- terruption. Whether the authorities are powerless, incompetent or unrell- able, we cannot say, but certainly the city is fast acquiring a decidedly un- savory reputation.

 So 1t seems that there may be some more or less critical complications. no matter how the matter ends. It seems hardly probable that England would resort to q trick of this kind in order thus to add largely to her naval strength. and to do it in way that will not excite jealousy and apprehen- sion on the part of other great pow CTS of Europe. If building ships os- tensibly for Brazil. but really for her. self. is the object. 1t looks ike de- liberate attempt to deceive other na- tions and put them off their guard. But whether these monsters go to the South American Republic or remain in England there may be trouble ahead on account of them.
 And in connection with this subject, and possibly having direct bearing on 1t. there Is good evidence that, to use a diplomatic phrase, relations are strained" between Brazil and the Arr genuine Republic. and 1t is stated that some of the great powers of Europe are not at all sure that war will not result. Most of those nations, as well as our own, have interests in the South American countries which might be seriously impaired by war down there. If that should come it would not be strange if some of the powers should commit or permit acts that would infringe on our .time-honored Monroe doctrine and then Uncle Sam would be forced to take hand in the game. Thus 1t may come about that the building of these war vessels may be the preliminaries to some real live iy episodes in the not distant future.

FRAN TIC WOMEN

Organic disturbances of the femin- inc system act like a firebrand on the nerves of women, often driving them fairly frantic.
 A nervous, irritable woman is source of misery not only to herself, but to all those who come under her influence. That such conditions can be entirely overcome by taking LYDIA E. PINIEHAM'S VEGETABLE COMPOUND is proven by the following letters.
 Mrs. Mary Wood, of Christiana, Tenn, writes to Mrs. Pinkham:
 "I had the worst form of female troubles and my nerves were all torn to pieces; sometimes I suffered so much that it seemed as though could not live
 "I began to take Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound and now feel like different person. Your medi- cine Is worth it's weight in gold, and [. cannot say enough for your advice"

WEARING AV THE GREEN" :"

bit av tune to me ear is brought
BY passing, vagrant breeze,
bar from a tune me ears once knew
In land across the seas.
It's the dear old "Wearing av the
Green"
And it bears me far away;
In mind and heart I'm in Erin's isle,
And it's morn, ST. Patrick's day.
ST. Patrick's day in the morning there
Twas many year ago
Travelled a road to Donaghmore
With a girl used to know,
And she had a ribbon in her hair
AS green as the emerald sod,
And we tramped that way as gay pair
As ever the dear soil trod.
When old the day, in the deepening
dusk,
Once again we came that way.
The path we trod was a glory road,
Fen though the dark shadows lay
Athwart the path, for love shone bright
AS stars in the blue o'erhead.
We whispered o'er, as we tripped along,
The words that the priest had said
St. Patrick's day, and I'm far away
From the isle av emerald sheen,
And many year a dear grave there
Has been wearing av the green.
All, It's here am in freedoms land
Please God I'm here to stay
But me heart and soul go homo each
year
For to spend St. Patrick's day.

my boy, lets step out where the
smoke isn't so thick and the moon
shines, and you wear the shamrock in

And then the two men fought the
duel of the ShamrockS out in the soft

QuigIey mines, POO miles away, had
first shot, and he aimed for the sham
rock over Toms heart But the ride
had unncrvcd him, and so had the look
in Kitty'S eyes as she had gaZed at
his rival, and he missed his shot.
Hold up your head, lad, and take
your mcdiriue" called out Tom as he
raised his hand to aim, and the young
ster did as he was told, white faced
and close Tipped. But the strength of

shot the green shamrock off it neatly

He had the largest and coolest house

would throw it open for dance for

dance that Tom asked Kitty did she
love him Il bit.
"Ask me tomorrow morning, Tom"
she said softly.
Ills tonight you'll be telling me

masterfulness of him did her heart
good, for the wayWard woman loves

one remarkable instance of Patrick's
extraordinary clcvrrneSs and of his
readiness to avail himself of a simple
illustration in Ol.,cr to bring COnvic-
tion home to his hearers comes down
to us from his day. While the young
missioner is discussing the doctrine
of the Trinity one of thH Druid priests
interrupts him by challenging Patrick
to explain how there are three Gods in
one
This is evidently quite a poser to the
illitcratc paganS who sit around the
royal circle. Patrick, Suiing the ac-
tion TO the word, stoops down and,
plUcking single leaf of shamrock
from the sward beneath him, holds 1t
up to the ustonishcd gaze of the multi
tude and explains that as the three
leaves emanatcd from single stem
so there are three Gods in one and one
in three.
One can easily imagine even at this
distance of time with what thunder
ing shouts of patriotic applause this
explanation involving the shamrock
is received by the primitive Irish. 1t
was by arts like these quite as much
as by the force and beauty of Christian
principles that st. Patrick accomplish
ed his purpose and established his
right to the chief apostlcship of Ire
land.

around IS beautiful to behold, fruitful,

to our view. lreland'S monarch sits on
his throne in high council. Around
him are the kings and chieftains Of the

into four kingdoms. Around these,

melody of Erin's music and accom-

Suddenly a shadow falls upon the
