OMAHA, Aug. ITO the Editor Of The
Bee: I am very much surprised at read
ing a letter In your letter box written
by Mr.. McChristal, TO think that there
was ever an Irishman on he is an Irish
NAM with such views ireland has been
fighting for home rule for a good many
years. and yet any time England was IN
trouble the Irish forgot their troubles
and helped out the mother country, as
hope they always will.
l was born there myself and consider
myself as good Irish as ever was. I
have two uncles. as good Catholics as
ever wore brogans-one in the Ennis
klllen Dragons and one in the Dublin
Fusiliers-a brother who has just served
twelve years in the British navy and will
go out again az a member of the re-
serve; brother-in-law, who IL an officer
in the British navy, and a father who
served fifteen years in the British navy.
Every one Of them wants home rule. but
dlvil the bit will that interfere with
their fighting for the old country.
In his letter to you he says: Yes, in
the name OF God. render up the scepter
OF authority TO some other Irlshman, who

honor OF Old Ireland and for the glory

Redmond for the Irish never was yet, and
he did just exactly as any leader OF the
Irish. who was worthy to be a leader,
would do In such circumstances. The
sentence, "England's difficulties are Ire
lands opportunities" which he uses, was
never meant TO be used in this sense
As he says, John Redmonds honor and
intergrity as an Irish patriot was tested,
and he responded just as good Irish
man should and Just as good Irish always
will. / have talked with several good

One hundred years ago congress- en-
gagged In warm discussion Of the
report transmitted by the president
from the secretary Of war explaining
the failure of the army on the north
ern frontier. The political opponents
of President Madison and the anti
war party in general bad much to
criticise in the conduct Of the war.
While the American navy had distin.
guished itself on the seas. the land
forces had accomplished little OF real
importance. Failure had resulted
from the invasion Of Canada by Gen.
erals Wilkinson and Hampton. The
report of the secretary Of war. which
was founded on letter. and reports
received from the several command
ers, allayed much Of the criticism.

NOT HARD TO UNWIND SPRING
Simple Method Of Starting Clock
When the Key Has Been Given
a Turn Too Much.

II in winding clock actuated by
q spring you have given the key a
turn too much and so have wound
the spring SO tight that the clock
won't run, you don't have to take the
clock to a clockmaker to have the
spring unwound. You can start 1t
yourself II you will go about 1t the
right way and exercise Q little pa
dence.
Earring or sinking the clock does NO
good. What you want to do Ia to hold
it up and turn 1t right and left quickly
but gently to oscillate the balance
wheel. The object Of this, OF course.
Is to set the clock in action and free
the spring from the binding restraint
upon 1t, give the spring little play.
a chance to exercise Its own powg.
II your own strong arm were bound
tightly to your side you couldn't use
1t at all; but IL you could work your
arm free just little bit you could
then break loose. 1t is so with the
tightly wound clock spring; give 1t
just little bit of play and 1t will
then be able to exert itself.
With your first oscillation the bal
ance wheel will stop after half doz-
en- ticks. but that has helped. Keep
this up for ten to fifteen p'7utes,
and you will then have given the
clock spring play enough to enable 1t
to exert Its own power and keep the
clock going.

She never sat around and fretted
Because she'd nothing to wear:
II other wives were sometimes petted
And called sweet names she did not
care.
She did not murmur when another
Got things that she could not afford:
She loved her husbands little mother.
And all his sisters she ndored.
Che never sighed DER her condition
Or feared her choice had not been
wise.
But, satisfied with her position,
She thought her husband was a prise.
He did not cease to feel that neatneas
Was necessary on his part:
He did not disregard her sweetness
Or by his coldness chill her heart.
He did not let himself grow fretful.
Her voice did not offend his car;
He never. foolishly forgetful.
WrunR from her heart bitter tear.
Forever mindful of his duty,
He gave her praise by word and look,
And so their lives were Allied with

But they were merely In book.
