HOW TO POISON RATS.

For poisoning rats in buildings and
yards occupied by poultry, the follow
ing method is recommended: Two
wooden boxes should be used, one con-
siderabiy larger than the other, and
each having two or more holes in the
sides large enough to admit rats. The
poison bait should be placed on the
bottom and near the middle of the
larger box, and the smaller box should
then. be inverted over it. Rats thus
have free access to the bait, but fowls
are excluded.

The Church on Wheels.

The Endorsement Of the chapel car
and the procuring of missionary tents
for work among the Indians repre-
scented the principal action Of the
eighth annual conference of the Cath.
olic Missionary Union Of America in
Washington, D. c.. on June 10.
The chapel car specially appealed to
the delegates, and paper on the sub.
ject by Rev. John Handy, a Paulist,
met with instant approval.

Inspiration he said. ito set the rail-

There was space of hall, very bare

Neglected Irish Graves.

Neglected Irish Graves.
I visited Glasnevin Cemetery in Dub-i.
lin, last summer, and found many tf
the graves Of Ireland's patriots In
most deplorable condition, says
writer in New York contemporary.
The Cemetery Corporation have erect
ed very pretty tombstone over Anne
DeVlin's grave, which is in the rear
of the O'Connell tomb and close to
that Of Charles ]. Hickman, but there
was nothing on Anne Devlins grave
not flower or plant. or shamrock, or
even a blade of grass. Oh! you mill
lions Of prattling.. Cabling, over
dressed daughters of Erin. do without
even hatpin each, put the price
into fund that will for every day
in the year put fresh Irish flowers en-
Anne Devlin's grave. There is noth.
ing to mark P. w. Nally's grave only
bare soil and the withered and broken
artificial glass covered flower wreaths
sent years ago, at the time of his fun
eral. John OMahoney and Terence
l8ellew McManus with others, are in
TINS same plot, with nothing to denote

the monument is ready in Dublin, but
some money is owing on it. and tho,

League was in deplorabe condition.

province of I.einster, rests as the Dub

similar to that of Nally's. is marked
only by the tokens Of the love and re-
spect of other days. Have the Irish
arrived at a condition where they can
afford to- forget for a moment the sac

TO BULB ANOTHER PARK.
Durham Traction Company Planning b
Erect Same Near East Durhan.

The Durham Traction Company
has about completed the plans
for another park for Durham,
and the county commissioners
were asked at their meeting this
week to establish the grade of
Driver avenue so that work on
grading for the laying of the
track might begin in the near
future.
The franchise was granted
several years ago and the CON-
pany had the property. but work
was delayed for some reason.
The new park will be in the
nature Of a base ball park with
race track and plenty Of room
for carnivals and circuses. Should
Durham ever reach point where
it should want to do such a thing
the new park will be sufficient to
accommodate a county fair.
The location selected will be
between the East Durham Bap-
tist church and the home place
Of the late Sheriff Markham, and
is well situated for such a place
of amusement.
Il is said that work will begin
at once to straighten out the
street and establish the grade so
that the laying Of the track will
not be interfered with.
