GUINNESS
to Step Into
Breach For Ameri- 49,
can Cap.

If Sir Thomas Upton had moi
decided to make an attempt to lift
the Americas cup another Irishman
the Hon. Rupert Guinness, Of the
big brewing firm of Dublin, Ireland
was inclined to step into the breach,
Among his many activities yachting
has always claimed a considerable
share of the Hon. Rupert's attention,
and for quite a number Of years he
has made no secret of his ambition
to try and secure that cup. He says
now that should the genial Sir
Thomas fail to come to terms with
the New York yachting authorities
he is prepared to come along at
short notice and build the necessary
boat. Apart from the glory that
would attach to the restoration of
the cup to England, the heir to the
Iveagh millions feels that his politi-
cal popularity would be very
enhanced II he succeeded
In the exploit.
In any case lack of money will not
hamper his ambitions, because he
will have the full support of the
Guinness family. If It had not been
for the friendly relations that have
existed so long between himself and
sir Thomas he would have issued a
challenge twelve months ago, but he
agrees that Sir Thomas has first call
on the challenge,

HELPS IRISH CAUSE.

Before the opening of England's
Parliament last Monday T. p.
O'Connor, Irish statesman and MEM
Der for Liverpool, declared that the
tremendous problem of foreign
policy confronting the Government
does not seriously diminish the
growing keenness and excitement
among British politicians with regard
to the terrific battle to begin in the
House of Commons. At present the
Liberal ranks are in better spirits
and greater cohesion than during
the closing days of the last session.
Sir Edward Carson's campaign with
the open threats of civil war and the
appeals by himself and by his
Bishops and clergymen to the bitter
est and most sectarian passion have
done the Liberal and Irish cause an
immense service and the LiberaIN
now demand that the Government
shall promptly declare that, if such
appeal do lead to an outbreak OF
violence in Ulster, the Ministry will
be ready to meet it with an over
whelming force and crush it
effectually. In short. John Bulls
blood is In aud this 2laE .actipg
It imply any indifference to religious
principles. Far from it. Church and
State move in parallel lines. The
State throws over the Church the
mantle of its protection, without in
tcrfering with the God-given rights
Of conscience; and the Church on her
part renders valuable aid to the State
in unfolding the civil laws by relig-
ious and moral sanctions"

THE MOTHER.

Och, the loneliness, the wastefulness
How empty is the scene
That greets me on the roadway
A walk to Skibbereen;
For though love the Shamrock
And the joys of land and sea,
Ny heart keeps achin', achin'
For the childer far from me.
0chl I can not be contented,
can not dry the tears
That fill my eyes when thinkin'
OF the loneliness of years,
For aged, and worn, and wearied,
sit and muse all day,
An my heart keeps ever throbbin
As my well-worn beads 1 pray.
There are other mothers like me,
They are scattered Ger the Isle,
For the homes are scarce in Erin,
All the youth are in exile,
And all we have to comfort as
Are the letters that we read,
But the words of love from children
Set our achin' hearts to bleed.
We moan alone in our despair,
Our thought beyond the sea,
And the crushing weight o. sorrow
Keeps pressing heavily,
For we know the childer won't come
back,
Their lives are spent for love,
That their mothers may have shelter
Until they're called above.
Josephine Byrne Sullivan.

CHARACTERISTIC OF KNOTT.

On wednesday of this week the
Evening Post editor attacked the
ability of the present Fire depart
ment, charging the men with incom-
petency and that the collision at
Eighth and Walnut between the
street car and hook and ladder was
caused. as were previous accidents
by reckless and ignorant driving OF
members of the Fire department. AS
was proven, the street car ran into
the hook and ladder while the latter
was crossing the street intersection
but aside from this the driver was
John Morris, a member OF the depart
ment for fifteen years, and during
that time had been a reel driver
engine driver and driver OF the hook
and ladder (even during the Grim
stead administration) and before
mis- connection with the department
drove a hack for a livelihood, which
should even convince the contrary
editor of the Post that he was
competent driver. In regard to the
further incompetency Of the Fire
as charged by the Even
ing Post, the letters OF praise re-
ceived after every large fire are
contradiction enough. and II there
was an iota OF fairness or justice in
Editor Knott he would apologize to
Chief Lehan and his brave men for
his hasty and bitter screed.

That the manufacturers of this

that we are enjoying an unprecedent-
