Irish in America
Favor Allies Cause,
TIP. O'COnn0r Says

LONDON, Dec. Sin response to
request for a statement in regard
to Irish opinion, especially in
America, on the war T. P. O'Connor,
NJ. p, writes:
1.-THE German campaign in the
United States has been active and
we'll subsidized, but ! do not think
it has made much way. All my in
formation leads me to believe that
the overwhelming mass of Ameri-
can opinion is on the side of the
allies.
1.-The opinion of the people OF the
Irish race in the United States might
well have given cause for anxiety.
These Irish people are in the main
descendants of the unhappy peasants
who were driven out of Ireland in
the days of the Irish famine, and at
an epoch much less wise and less hui
name than ours of today. These sons
and daughters Of the Irish exiles
drank in the story Of suffering and
Of wrong at their mothers knees.
The results were very palpable to
anybody who visited America some
years ago. Any difficulty of Eng
land would then have been hailed
as Irelands opportunity, and the
sympathy of these Irish people in
America would have gone instructive
ly and unanimously to anybody who
was England's foe.
Now, l can assert positively and
with full information that, though
Irish opinion is not unanimous, it is
overwhelmingly in favor of the allies
in the United States today"

Expert Tells Proper Way
for Rolling an Umbrella

Few men can roll up an umbrella
nicely Here is the method / was
taught. 1t is not very pretty, but II
is effective. You begin by folding up
g. sheet of newspaper to form a little
pad; otherwise you are apt to spoil
your wallpaper Now for the rest.
Hold the umbrella horizontally
Hold the pad of paper against the
wall, press the end OF the umbrella
against the paper and the handle Of
the umbrella against your own body.
This leaves the hands free for the
delicate task of rolling up the UNI
brella. Find the button. Bring the
fold with the button on it to your
left and let it hang down. Then pull
out each fold and pass it over the
first. Throw the lot loosely around
the umbrella without disturbing the
creases of the folds. Grip the tops of
the ribs with the right hand. Put
your left hand around the other end
and wind the umbrella through the
left hand with a screwing motion.
Do not let go of the tops of the ribs
of the umbrella. When you have to
move the hand slide 1t around. If you
let go you will find that the ribs get
out of place, and then the folds of the
umbrella will follow suit. When the
umbrella is rolled up grip it tightly
until you have fastened 1t. If you
fail in that detail you will get an
unsightly bulge in the centre of the
umbrella--London Globe.

General Nogi's Prophecy.

1t is interesting to recall what the
military Japanese STRAIT
egist, General Nogi, said at the time
of the siege of Port Arthur. and note
how accurately he located the field on
which the future of Europe would
be fought out and determined. His
words were:
II believe that the world will wit
ness a great war, which will have all
Europe for its battle ground, and will
settle the Franco-German question
and the Anglo-German rivalry.
France and Germany Will meet in
this last decisive conflict on the Bel
gian plains, probably near Waterloo,
the only spot which will permit of
the evolution of the immense armies
which will face each other. At the
present time the French and German
frontiers are too strongly fortified for
either people to force its way through.
/ have little doubt as to the result
OF this war. France will beat Ger
many on land and England will crush
Germany at sea.
This war will be the last in Eu-
rope for many day, perhaps for
ever; the German states will emerge
from this war so exhausted and so
terrified that they will have no other
object than to form some sort of
condition that may In the future
obviate the recurrence Of any such
catastrophe"

Russia and other Eastern countries
to the United States were formerly

for their transportation had been

the grandstand of the racing grounds

not proved commodious enough for

of the prisoners is that
their allowance of meat is too short.
They get only a small piece of beef
or sausage daily, which is considera-

toned to. Persons who have visited
the prisoners in behalf OF the Ameri-

the interests of British subjects dur
