all mixed up in perpetual fight
for nobody knew just what, prob
ably Just for the love of It
But, fortunately, up out Of the
chaos arose the great man who
was to bring peace to ireland.
His name was Brian Boru. Brian
gathered to himself an army Of
his countrymen who thought
more OF their country than they
did Of Office under the foreigners,
and commenced operations. In
a little while he found himself
King of Munster, in a little while
again. King Of Mugs Half Of
Ireland, and by and by. with the
submission Of Malachy. he be-
came Over-King, giving the
people. we are told, a just and
restful rule
But in Brian's old age a con-
sDiracy was Matched against
him between the Danes and GER
tain members OF his own house
hold; and as a result an army
appeared against him led by
Sigurd, half Dane and half
Irishman. II was a large army,
composed Of Danes from the
Irish mainland, renegade Irish
men, Welsh. Jennings and Sax
ons, with contingents from the
Isle of Man. the Orkneys and
Scandinavia.
Unterrifed by the formidable
array, Brian, old and feeble in
body, but still strong in courage
and resolution, met them with his
real Irishmen from Munster, Con-
naught and Meth, at Clontarf,
near Dublin, and gave them the
blow which settled them for good
and all II is said that the Danes
left more than fifteen thousand
dead upon the field.

following from the Engineering and Min

The removal OF the duty on iron

As j. r F'inlay pointed out In 4 re-
cent paper on the valuation of Iron

stltute OF mining engineers. the posi-
tion of the Lake Superior iron mines
Is too secure. both on account OF
geographic and economic reasons, to
put them IN any danger from the
competition of foreign ore, duty or no
duty. Those mines are protected by
geography.
The reduction of the duties on lead
and spelter ought to have a steadying
effect upon tho prices for those met
ais. The zinc industry can. no doubt.
