SHOW PAST IN ITS TRUTA
Buildings Which Have Survived Are
the Most Valuable Historical Rec
ords the World Has.

1t has been said that history was tie
written order of things. No doubt
what had been written was of enor-
nous value, but it was not all, and even
where we had a literature of the past
1T was in some cases not the greater
part OF what conveyed the past to us,
said Prof. Flinders Petrie, in London,
the Philadelphia Public Ledger states.
Where should we be in the under
standing of the ancient Greeks If there
were no s%tatuary and no sculpture?
How could We understand their mag,
nlflcent sense of accuracy, precision
and refinement If there were no archi-
lecture to study? Many years ago,
with regard to the great question of
the restoration of the Parthenon, the
objection was made that no person
could ever get to know precisely how
the columns were put together.
Professor Petrie thought it was only
a question Of measurements, and he
bought a lathe in Athens and did some
careful measurements. To his intense
surprise he found he could not detect
the errors. There we're none. He
thought he was going to deal with
tenths of an inch, but he found he had
to deal with hundredths. How the
Greeks did 1t, he did not understand.
He could not comprehensive physical
means of doing 1t on that scale. That
was only an instance of how much a
building could teach them. Who could
appreciate the accuracy. the sense OF
perfection and the sense Of beauty, if
We had not these material remains?
Then, If they looked a little later.
let them consider how miserable was
the greater part of the histories of the
emperors. What did they understand
of Rome? They understood the Colt.
scum the majesty Of it and the
cruelty Of it--they could understand
the magnificent temples, the great
architecture, and they could see from
that what Rome was far better than
by reading all the imperial historians.
And If they looked a little later what
was there in the whole writings OF the
thirteenth century which gave them
such a perfect picture of TIE medieval
mind as Salisbury cathedral?
He ventured to give these as Illus.
trations of the value of the material
civilization side by side with the civil
Of the people. because he
thought they would enable them to
grasp perhaps more clearly how much
they could ascertain and feel and know
about the civilization of which they
had material remains, They enabled
to understand the feelings, senti-
ments and ideals of those bygone men
from their literature. The question OF
material evidence might seem a dead
and dull thing, but he ventured to
think they were as much q key to tho

First Occupation of Ireland

the phrase beyond, or outside, the
pale" for the barons' territory was
known as the pale, and they slight
fngly came to describe those who
were not allowed to live on their
land as beyond, or outside, the pale"
Hence the contemptuous application
of the SAYING.
For many years the Normans, or
English, and the natives of Ireland
were forever fighting each other, but
gradually their relationships became
more and more friendly, and in time
they even intermarried.
The country had its own Parlia-
ment, run on the Norman system,
and it was allowed to manage its
own affairs until 1884, when Henry
VII, annoyed by its attitude over
certain matters affecting himself, re-
taliated by passing what was known
as Poyning's act.
Poyning's act, named after Sir Ed
ward Poyning, whom Henry VII.
sent to Ireland at the head of large
army, decreed that English laws
should henceforth prevail. That was
the virtual end of almost 300 years of
| home rule.
Henry VIII. was the first English
king to assume the title of King of
| Ireland-his predecessors had been
intent with Lord Paramount"-but
all through his reign and the sue
ceeding ones up to that of Cromwell
| the history of Ireland was one of
almost constant fighting against Eng
| lish rule.
| Cromwell reduced the Irish to sub
mission. but more fighting broke out
when James II. fled from his English
throne to Ireland. The Irish largely
supported James, but they could not
stand against William Ill. 1.-THE Or
angeman," who chased the Stuart
king, and the great battle of the
Boyne $500 saw them defeated.
| In 1882, however, ireland got home
rule again; the Irish Parliament was
allowed to be an independent Legis~
lature, Ito make laws for the people
of Ireland"

A Johnson, now of Pittsburgh
Pa. was some thirty years ago
brought into intimate association OIL
fieially with some of the great minus
and striking personalities that were
members of the United States senate
al that time. In the last two years
of the administration of President
Rutherford B. Hayes, Mr.. Johnson
was in official connection with the
committee on foreign relations OF the
Senate. There he was brought INTO
most friendly relations with Wllllain
W. Eaton, senator from Connecticut
whose term expired on the day of the
inauguration of President James A.
Garfield.
MY relations with that committee
were extremely pleasant" said Mr..
Johnson to me. Il remember DIS
tinctlv with what grace and dignity
Senator Burnside, of Rhode Island,
who had greater reputation as a
general in commanding large bodies
of men in the Union army than he
gained in civil life, although he was
governor of Rhode Island and senator
of the United States, and took his
seat as chairman of the foreign rela-
tons committee.
1T was on account of his social
and personal qualities that Senator
Eaton especially attracted his col
leagues in the Senate. He did not
speak often upon the floor of the
Senate. but when he did he received
the attention of all those present.
Let me recall an incident which
occurred within an hour or two after
Senator Eaton's term as United
States senator expired on March

some of his experiences as senator.
I think he felt somewhat depressed
that his party had not been trium-

term of service as United States sen
ator would be over. He was succeed
ed by General Joseph r. HaWley, a
fellow townsman, of Hartford, Conn.,,

ADMINISTRATION WORRY OVER REVENUES

While administration leaders are making loud and
confident predictions of substantial increase in tariff
receipts they are doing quiet worrying about the
income tax ON which returns due this month and
which, they beginning to fear may fall as low as
$4,000 900. With the large appropriations by Con-
gress this would mean a deficit, which would make
very poor Democratic campaign material for this years
Congressional elections. And then there is the de-
crease in customs receipts which will when the
duty on sugar is finally removed The balance sheet
of the Wilson Underwood program is not yet
made up by any means.

ceived by the State from motoring licenses properly
