IRISH LAND ACTS PERIL
Nationalist DisapwoUes Of Erpe-
dicnts SUGGESTED by Committee.

London. April 3-The prolonged depression IN
the money market. which has made IL impos-
sible for the government TO raise further large
loans required 10 fulfil the intentions Of the
Irish land purchase act Of 1903. resulted in the
appointment Of a committee Of the Treasury
which has just reported in favor Of several
financial expedients TO tide over the difficulty.
According to William O'Brien, Nationalist
member Of Parliament, in a double-Column let
ter in The Daily Telegraph this morning,
these expedients will only complicate and pro
long the deadlock and practically suspend the
land purchase for decade He argues that
the whole difficulty has arisen through the
traordinary and unexpected success of the land
act
Instead OF purchases amounting 10 s25, 100000
yearly, which was the outside limit expected BY
the former Secretary for Ireland. Mr.. Wyndham.
when he introduced the bill. there have been
transfers amounting 70 $500 100000 within four
years, and ii IS certain, he says, that another
100000 600 in sales could be effected next year
II advances were forthcoming This would
virtually abolish the agrarian problem in Ireland
This. he adds. is Englands first successful Iegis-
Iative achievement in Ireland and is having most
benefcent effects upon her prosperity.
Mr.. O'Brien suggests the calling of a confer
ence representative Of all who interested in
the problem Of landlords and tenants, IN order
that z compromise may be found to solve the
difficulty.

In the news columns will be
found an item of considerable inn
portance to this section. The
movement to deport undesirable
citizens should meet with popular
favor, and Inspector Dean will have
the earnest cooperation OF the
best citizens of the range towns.
Socialism as practiced in the range
towns by the foreign subjects is
anarchism, pure and unadulterated,
and the sooner some of the red-iiag
spouters are put out OF the way
the better it will be for America
and American institutions. The
Petriellas, Kolus, and few presl-
dents" and secretaries" who never
work only the worker, can be dis
pensed with without seriously at
fecting the commercial activity
of the nation, and the laboring man
would be money and peace Of mind
ahead should these parasites be
dropped into the sea. Some OF the
foreign countries will be tickled to
death to have these subieats re-
turned, and no doubt a warm vel
come awaits them. The clique is
getting quite busy secretly in the
range towns and midnight meet
ings by the push are being held.
How long would an American last
in Russia, Austria or Italy ii he
acted as these fellows do here?
There would be gendarme, a call
on the boss, a whack with an axe
or a shot or two and all would be
over. Here we spend thousands of
the taxpayers money to defend the
most violent red-fag adherent.
What's the use? A man who has
been forced by the police to steal
away from the old country makes
a poor citizen and should be kept
on the move. A socialist in the
old country is an anarchist here,
and nothing more.

END OF THE WORLD.
One Scientific Theory of How Our
Planet May Perish.

Planet May Perish.
A scientific forecast Of how the end
of the world might come has been
given by Professor Ellard Gore His
theory is that final cataclysm may pos
sibly be the result Of collision be-
tween the sun and some dark, dead,
derelict planet.
Although astronomers have no ac-
tual proof that such dead suns exist,
without life or light and careering
about in space, they believe it quite
possible. The result of a collision be-
tween the sun and dark planet
would be that the formers light and
heat would be enormously increased
and the earth instantly destroyed by
mbustion.
Professor Gore tells how we should
be warned of our approaching doom.
"When about 100000 miles from
the sun, the dark body would begin to
shine by reflected light. In about ten
years it would have become so bright
as to be visible to the naked eye. In
fifteen years it would be brighter than
any object except the moon. Very soon
afterward would come the great catas-
trophe of it's collision, moving at 400
miles second, with the sun moving
at the same speed. '-Dundee Observer

Ancient Legends Of the Sacred River

Ancient Legends Of tho Sacred River
Of the Hindoos.
From an icy cavern at the foot of a
Himalayan snow bed more than 10000
feet above the level Of the sea issues
IA small stream which becomes the
mighty Ganges, flowing. for II SOC. miles
through India to the bay of Bengal,
and of whose course every foot is holy

With Mother Ganga, as the pious
Hindoos reverently call her, no river
on earth can compare in sanctity.
The old poem tells us that the heav-
emily Ganges flowed from the toe of
Vishnu and was brought down from
heaven by the prayers of the saint
Bhagiratha to purify the ashes of the
$4,000 sons of King Sagara, who had
been burnt by the angry glances of the
sage Kapila.
Cana was angry at being brought

caught the river on his brow and with
his matted locks checked it's course.
The legends go on to tell how the de-
scent of the Gauges disturbed the sage
Jahnu in the performance of his reli-
gious duties, whereupon in his rage he
drank up the river, but subsequently
relented and permitted it to flow from
his ear-PearsOn's Weekly.
