IRELANp,s ANIMALS.
Species of Frogs and TOads Are
Found In the Green Isle.

Species of Frogs and TOads Are
Found In the Green Isle.
1t is not correct to say that there are
no frogs or toads in Ireland. though 1t
is very remarkable that the common
toad is not found there. The natterJack
toad is a native of Kerry, though 1t
does not appear to be found elsewhere.
1t is an example of the mania which
some people have for meddling with
nature that DIR. Guithers In 1893 took
the trouble to procure frogs spawn
from England, since which time they
have multiplied In Ireland. But the
common lizard Is found in many parts
of the island. The slOwwOrm Is not.
Though the common toad and till re-
cent times the frog were not found in
! Ireland, 1t is worth remembering that
the English reptiles and batrachians
are very local In their distribution. The
natterjack toad is only found in certain
counties. The edible frog was formerly
only found in FOulmire Fen, in Cam
! bridgeshire. and the sand lizard is most
capricious in the choice of a home. The
I beautiful green lacert8" which Gil
bert White saw on the sunny banks
near Farnham are to be found there
still, the males being of the green color,
and also near Bournemouth and in
Dorsctshire beyond Poole Harbor. Yet
there are many suitable places where
none are seen. and then they reappear
again on some sandhills on the coast of
Lancashire, near Southport.
On the other hand, the absence Of
many species in Ireland which are or
were commonly found in the larger Is
land can only be explained on the sup
position that they never reached the
country. Among these are the wildcat,
the polecat and the weasel. Yet the
marten was always plentiful on the
other side Of st. Georges channel, and
stoats abound in the west. Five of the
fourteen species Of bat found in Eng
land have not been taken In Ireland,
neither Is the common shrew found
there or the water Shrew or the mole.
though the last is found In Anglesey.
Only six Of the fifteen British rodents
are found in Ireland. and of these one.
the squirrel, was probably introduced.
Neither Is the roe deer indigenous. In
support Of the general theory that the
immigration Of the English fauna was
difficult in the earlier periods and sub
sequently checked altogether may be
cited the analogous instance Of the Isle
Of Man. There. as in Ireland. there are
no moes. no snakes and no toads.-

Train and Track.

There are in Argentina fOVr broad
gauge railroads, three narrow gauge
and two English gauge.
Electricity has supplanted gas for
car lighting in nearly all state railways
OF Italy, Switzerland and Denmark.
1t has been proved that the great
railway terminals. where traffic Is
constant. where switch engines are
shunted back and forth and sgburbaa
trains are run frequently, can be OpeF-
ated more economically by electricity
than by steam.

The whole country by this time
must have heard of a somewhat
unique undertaking, the building
of a memorial temple in Wash
ington in honor of the Father of
his Country. The undertaking
is unique only in the fact that a
woman, Mrs. Dimmick, is most
active in urging it, that it has the
enthusiastic and active approval
of the President, of Senator Root
and of many men distinguished
in national affairs. The proposal
is that it shall be built by the
SchOOlchildren of the United
States, and already the contribu-
tions, mostly in dimes, amount
to a very respectable sum in dol
lars. The building is to take the
form of an immense assembly
hall to which the many conven-
tions now making Washington
the center for their deliberations
shall find free access. The con-
ventions now coming to Wash
ington must rent halls. 1t is
proposed that this building shall
be so arranged that many con-
ventions, if desired, may hold
simultaneous meetings in smaller
halls, but all sufficiently large to
accommodate large meetings.

Washington Letter.

1t is now expected that one of
the most important of bills, that
relating to the postal savings
bank, will become a law during
the present month. There has
been considerable opposition to
the bill, mainly from Democratic
and insurgent sources. Many a.
mendments have been presented
and some of them accepted. Sen
ator Root of New York, in ad-
vocacy of the bill, has made the
most forcible speech of his sena-
torial career. It is understood
that he voices the views OF tne
President. 1t is expected that
the bill will add greatly to the
strength of the financial situation
in this country, and the fact that
it has long been in use in con-
servative foreign countries will
recommend it to rejecting peo-
pie in America.

Thirty or forty years ago there
was serious consideration of a
project to remove the national
capital farther west, or nearer
the geographical center. This
project or dream has long since
been abandoned. Nothing but a
disruption of the country or a
revolutionary upheaval can be
able to fix the capital elsewhere,
and in such an event there would
be more than one. and perhaps
more than half a dozen, capitals
IN the disunited states. Distance

It is thought also that the bill
fixing the last Thursday in April
for a new inaugural day, will be
adopted. Changing the date for
the Inauguration of a president
from the 4th of March to the
later date involves an amend
ment to the Constitution OF the
United States, and will therefore
have to receive a two-thirds vote
of Congress and a majority vote
of three fourths of the fOrtysiX
states through their legislatures,
before it can become a law. The
change of date is of the greatest
Importance, for the weather on
March 4 is seldom pleasant, and
occasionally, as on the day of
President Grants second inau-
guration and last 4th of March,
it is bitterly cold and tempes-
tuous. The national capital is
rapidly growing in improvements
and accommodations for visitors
and also in accessibility to all
parts of the country, and the
travel to the city for the quad
rennial event is steadily increas-
ing in volume. 1t becomes of
Importance, not so much to the
citizens of Washington, most of
whom have at least bed and
board, but to the two or three
hundred thousand visitors who
come here to witness the impos-

seventy thousand acres of good Min
