Puebla outbreak tonight
Quiet has been restored in Puebla,
it is said, but the statement is made
that sharpshooters are perched in

to kill the revolutionists on sight,
and the further statement that scores
of revolutionists have been captured
leads to the belief that the Puebla
outbreak is only the first of a series
of explosions that may wreck Diaz' s
hold on Mexico While the full de-
tails of the clash between Diaz troops
and the revolutionists has not been
allowed to seep out by the censors,
enough is known to make it certain
that the fighting was desperate, and

reinforcements prevented the pos

THE SHAMROCK SO GREEN.
BY JOHN M,N1AHoN
Of shamrocks are sent
TO this country from Ireland

IHNHOC SANDS or S1a mrOckS are sent
TO this country from Ireland
for St Patrick's day. They are
not sent as a commercial proposition.
but as messages of love from those on
1.-THE old sod TO their dear ones here.
The shamrocks that are sold in the
United States are almost universally
American clovers, which are larger
than the Irish plant and can be told
lat glance by any true son of Erin.
The real shamrocks are not for sale.
They are priced too dearly by their
recipients TO profaDe them by barter.
They symbolic sentiment. and sen
timents cannot be bought-that is, IN
less they are the imitation kind. 1t is
just so with shamrocks. Only the
counterfeits are on the market.
So common has become the custom
of sending shamrocks to America that
there is now what is known as the
shamrock ship" This is the last pos
sible mail steamer to get them here in
time for st. Patrick's day, the senders
delaying to the last moment In order
to have the plants fresh. Most Of the
shamrocks are sent In letters and are
moistened so as to keep. Wnen the
postal authorities handle a fat moist
envelope bearing an Irish postmark
they know 1t is Il shamrock letter.
This wettiDg Of the plants often plays
havoc with the letters. rendering the
superscription illegible in many cases
or even causing the envelope to come
TO pieces in a few instances. 1t is
also probable that the little plants are
sent In newspapers and other pack
ages. The postal authorities are not
very strict at such times and do not
inspect the Irish mail too vigorously.
When the shamrock ship comes in
the postofiice people are too busy to be
unduly curious.
Tradition has it that st. Patrick ac-
tually brought the shamrock to Ire
land. AS the old song has it:
There's a dear little plant that grows in
our isle.
Twas St Patrick himself sure, who set
And the sun on his labor with pleasure
did smile,
And the tear from his eye Outlines wet
1t grows through the bog. through the
brake. through the nire land,
And they call it the dear little shamrock
of Ireland.
The fact of the matter seems to be
that st. Patrick used the three leaved
shamrock as an illustration of the doc
trine of the Trinity-three in one. AS
to just what plant the saint employed
there is a question. Some maintain
that it was the wood sorrel. The cura-
tor of the Dublin botanical gardens
says 1t was the black nonesuch. The
general view, however. is that the
word shamrock is Erse, from seamrog.
meaning little clover, and that means
that the Trifolium repens or Tri-
folium minus is the real shamrock. 1t
is questionable, however, whether
white clover is a native Of Ireland.
The use of the word seamsoge by the
Oldest writer's would seem to uphold
the wood sorrel view, as seamsoge
means wood sorrel.
