IRISH SKETCHES.

Our esteemed correspondent Cabin. winds u2
his series of Irish sketches in this issue Many of
our readers have expressed their delight and pleas
ure, because the writer seems to have peculiar
knack of showing the heroic element of the Irish
nature and bringing out its poetry All his vii
lage characters partake of genuine mother wit
quickness of parts, wisdom shrewdness, intelli-
gence, piety and bravery He dispels the impress
sions of other writer's, who would present rural
Irish life and manners not as they really are but
as gross caricatures which nothing short of
libel. This is an injustice to race that has fur
nished more than its quota of brave soldiers capa-
bic officers, orators and statesmen brilliant writers
and artists in every English-speaking country.
Even in France, Austria and Spain the names of
Irish statesmen and warriors are revered 1t has
been conceded that they are more imaginative.
whole souled witty and poetic than the English or
Scotch, and with as much romance in their hearts
as is interviewer with their history Cabin has de-
picted the simple village Irish character in his
grand and noble nature
These sketches will be preserved permanently in
book form. They will, when read, remove the inn
preston of many Irish authors who after extolling
the virtues of the race, would represent the abest
dued characters.
To describe the beautiful and simple traits of
the Irish people they really are the writer has
to be one with them. to be brought up amongst
them otherwise a work dealing with the Irish peas
antry will not give us the pathos the love- the sim
pcty the deep lasting piety of the noblest people
on the face of Gods earth. The English and
Scotch actor can never act an Irishmans part upon
the stage, and the same holds good of a foreign
writer. He depict for us the Irish peo-
pie as they really Cabin has been born among
the Irish people and these sketches of his are drawn
from characters that he has met There is nothing
vulgar, nothing far fetched nothing burlesoue
about them, but the natives of the village are shown
forth true to life. Any person acquainted with the
Irish people can see by reading any of these
sketches that Cabin is thorough master of his sub
ject. We have no doubt but that these sketches

CLEANING UP.

In just about every city of the land, when the
first warm rays of the spring sun announces the
coming of the summer season, there is frantic eff
fort to clean up. This is all very WELL and nobody
can estimate the amount of good that this work
accomplishes. 1t puts the city in good condition
to enter the summer season; it makes life
comfortable for the inhabitants and gives the city
an appearance of cleanliness and orderly habits
that is both pleasing and profitable The stranger
within the gates is impressed by the neat appear
ance of the city, and goes away and tells others of
the neatness which he saw. Throughout the rest
of the year. there is superficial scraping over the
surface which has about the same relation to the
city as sweeping out the home has to housecean-
ing time However, it may be presumed that the
good housewife keeps her home in better sanitary
condition than does the average American city it's
Streets alleys and vacant lots. The good house
keeper brushes up little every day. and there is
usually one day each week devoted to cleaning up
thoroughly regular sweeping day, when the
whole house is turned topsy-turvy while the
folks are away to the office or attending their reg
ular work
Considering the city as a great big home, there
doesn't seem any reason why it, too should not be
given a pretty thorough cleaning once week. and
a regular daily busting off The conditions which
exist in some of the alleys, the vacant lots and
even on some of the streets would indicate that
such cleaning would work wonders. For instance,
at the corner of Brigham and Eleventh East Streets
in the middle of the street. neatly piled up behind
the unsightly pole which adorns that corner a lot
of broken glass bottles that has laid for months,
has gradually spread out and become menace to
rubber tires of vehicles, a dangerous stamping
ground for barefoot boys and an unsightly decora-
ton to an otherwise fairly wel-kept thoroughfare

by the Irish throughout the states. for they Will
recognize in them many an old form, many a ia
mar face of some dear old Irish village far away
Though these delightful sketches have drawn to
close in The Intermomtain Catholic, still Cabin
will contribute other articles dealing mainly with
Irish scenes and subjects. We have at present on
our hands little story written by him entitled the
