Men Released in Australia.

Then there was Capt. George An
thony of New Bedford. He died in
May. 1t was this sea captain who
went to Australia and showed Eng
land that even as far away as that
place her prison walls could not hold
Irish prisoners.
In 1875, with his little brig Catalpa,
and aided from on shore by the same
John Breslin who made the false keys
which opened the door of James
Stephens cell 10 years before, Capt.
Anthony rescued in a daring manner
six Irish prisoners from the penal col
ony at Freemantle, Australia.
"I'll give you Is minutes in which
to heave to, and I'll blow your masts
out unless you d." said the captain
of the English gunboat across whose
bows the rescuer and rescued rowed
in escaping, when he came up to the
Catalpa.
This ship is sailing under the
American flag and she is on the higl,
seas. If you fire on me l warn you
you are firing on the American flag,
shouted Capt. Anthony. And the Eng.
lishman dared not fire, fearing maybe
that his act might start another war.
So the prisoners were landed in.New
York safely. Again England was
reused and her ministers were
alarmed.

Boston Loses Many.

Mgr. O'Callaghan, beloved by all
creeds in Boston, was always stead
fast worker in the front ranks His
death recently brought out a tribute
of love and respect that has not been
surpassed in this city. So recently
was it that no further words are need.
ed to tell of what he did.
DR.. r. J. Dillon, whose death proceed
ed the clergyman's, and DR.. P. j. Tim
Minis, who died shortly after Mgr.
O'Callaghan, were, with Mr.. O'Calla'
CHAN, the national secretary, quartet
of Bostonians who were always found
together on any occasion when Ire,
lands rights and wrongs were topic
for discussion. The two physicians
showed their love and loyalty on
many occasions.
P. O'Neil Larkin was another who
fitted in with the above quartet ad-
mirably. Away back in the old days
he was sent to Ireland as a special
ambassador by the late Mr.. Ford to
handle the funds that were being
gathered here for the relief of the
poor who were being evicted. He was
under constant espionage there and
his task was a hard one. But he per-
formed it admirably. When he came
back he showed the same interest in
aiding Erin.
Then there was Alexander Sullivan,
who died recently in Chicago, one of
the first presidents of the Land
League, and who did splendid work in
the West. Michael A. Toland, for
merly treasurer of the Central Branch
of the United Irish League, is another
whose name comes up in going over
the roll. So does that of Arthur
O'Keefe, whose voice and pen did
much for the struggle. w. w. Do
herty, former United States marshal,
was another. John J. Joyce, treasur-
err, and Michael Fox, secretary, of the
league in New York, are two others
whose labors entitled them to be re.
membered gratefully. The living and
the dead have left heritage Of which
the future generations should be
proud.

English cabinet members at one
time had more fear of Patrick Ford
than any other man in the Irish move
ment. They felt that if he could be
suppressed that the feeling of antag-
onism to Ireland would die out, be.
come merged into nothingness by the
assimilation of nationalities in this
country. But Ford lived to almost see
the goal of his ambitions, the sun ris-
ing over an Irish Nation.
John O'Callaghan, late secretary OF
the United Irish League, was another
worker in the constitutional ranks
Year after year he wrote and preached
the gospel of country ruled by its
own people. He was the optimist of
the present day forces; the man who
always painted the brighter side of
the picture when the opponents were
responsible for the darker, gloomy
ones, and so keep his fellow workers
cheerful So they struggled the hard.
er instead of becoming listless and
hopeless.
Michael Breslin died in New York
recently, just after Mr.. O'Callaghan
and just before Mr.. Ford. To his ef-
forts were due the freedom of James
Stephens at Dublin in 1865. He was
an inspector of police, though not a
Fenian. But he had brothers who
were. And when Stephens was arrest
ed it seemed a crushing blow to the
Irishmen who were ready to start a
revolution.
Breslin had a brother, John, who
was hospital steward in the prison
And so between the scheming and
planning of the leaders outside and
the nerve of the men inside, particu-
larly John Breslin, Stephens was res
cued. 1t was daringly carried out and
created sensation. 1t showed Eng
land to what ends Irishmen would go
to oppose her. This, with the rescue
of Kelly and Deasy later, and some
other stirring events kept English
statesmen worried.

Might 1 not cry out blood for
blood.''
jeremiah ODonovan Rosa, the
man who wrote the words above in
his own blood on the walls OF an Eng
fish prison, while handcuffed, as a re-
proach to the inhumanity of his jail
ers, is dying in New York city. His
end is but a question Of short time,
says James T. Sullivan in the Boston
Globe of Sunday, Dec. z.
With his death there will pass from
the living one of the most picturesque
figures in Irish history of the last half
century. In the hospital where his
life is ebbing away slowly, peacefully,
the present is remarkable contrast
dents, when his name time and again
brought convulsive shudder of fear
to more than one British official.
ODonovan Rossa's condition brings
out strikingly the fact that there are
living now in this country but three
men who achieved international rec
ognition for deeds of daring coupled
with Ireland's attempts to throw Off
the yoke England fastened on her
when the act of the union was passed.
These three men are Rosa, Capt. Ed
ward O'Meagher Condor and Hon.
Patrick Egan.
Also the bringing up the subject re-
calls to men of Erin who have been
fighting heart and soul to bring about
the separation of the two countries,
that on this side of the Atlantic dur
ing the past year, or a little more,
there has been great swath cut in
the ranks by death. With what
seemed startling rapidity the men
have dropped off.
Patrick Ford, Michael Breslin, P.
O'Neil Larkin, Mgr. O'Callaghan, John
O'Callaghan, DR.. Timmins, DR.. Dillon,
Capt. George Anthony, Michael A. To-

Ivan, Michael Fox and John Jay
Joyce are some of the names of the
illustrious dead. Boston, New York

Leaders Gone This Year.

The roll of the illustrious dead has
leaders in peace and strife. Because
of their recent deaths, when much
was published it is not necessary to
60 into lengthy details now. Patrick
Ford looms up as one of the command
ing figures. For years he supplied the
sinews of war through his Irish World,
securing hundreds of thousands of
dollars to keep alive the spirit Of Irish
nationality.

LONGEST
Special Of Congress That
Was Ever Held

Washington, D. C. Nov. 29-When
the present special session of Con-
gress expires by limitation at noon
next Monday it will have established
a record as the longest special ses-
sion in the history of the national
Legislative body. 1t was on April Z
that the special session convened,
pursuant to the call of President
Wilson, to revise the tariff and to
pass a new banking and currency
law When adjournment is reached
Monday, the session will have con-
tinued at work exactly 23S days, a
record for length never before made
since the establishment of the nation
al government.
The longest previous extra session
was held in the Sixty-flrst Congress
for the enactment os the Payne tariff
law. That session began on March 10
and ended on Aug. 5, 1903, making a
total of 144 days. When the special
session of the Fifty-fifth Congress
was called together by President Nc
Kinley it took 131 days to place the
the Dingley tariff law on the statute
books, being in session from March
Is, 1887, until July "a of the same
year. The special session of the
Fifty-eigth Congress was called to-
gether Nov. 9, 1908, and remained at
work until the regular session of that
year, which met on Dec. Z, consuming
but twenty-nine days in all. On Aug
ust Z, 1898, the special session of the
Fifty-third Congress was called to
meet and remained at work until
Nov. of the same year, being at
work but eighty-nine days.
In reconstruction days, immedi
ately following the civil war, there
was an extra session which convened
on March 4, 1867, and ran in the reg
ular session, which began the follow
ing Dec. 2. This was span OF 274
days, and would have constituted ar
unbeaten record except that there
were recesses from March 80 to July
1, and from July 20 to Nov. 21.

The Maternity Blouse.

Far more trim looking than any gar
ment which previously has been de-
signed for maternity wear is a blouse
cut on precisely the same lines as the

the knees and with sleeves that cover
the wrists. Very practical are the ma
ternity blouses in black satin finished
all round with self piping or with
an ajour hem and fastening below the
sailor collar with silk cording run
through eyelets. Like the original
"middy," the maternity garment goes
on over the head and may be sash belt
ed If desired. In satin it may be worn
with the skirt Of almost any afternoon
gown or under tailored street suit
and for morning be worn with linen or
oongee skirts.
