ST. PAThlCk'S RETURN
Every True irishman Believes the
Good Saint Will Go Back to the
Emerald Isle.

A NfONE on the west coast OF Ire
- land will tell you that some day

the land he loved. No one says when
that day will be, although there is rea-
son to believe that 1t will be on the
Gay OF the final judgment of the world.
wnether or not his return is desir-
able depends altogether upon the
point Of view of the teller OF the
prophecy. II he be q gloomy pes
simist he is likely to remark that st.
Patrick can't come soon enough. God
knows. If he be a cheerful optimist
ne will add. "and may that day be far
although twill be a good day when.
ever 1t comes"
ireland has a personal regard for
st Patrick probably equaled by no
other country in the world in its rela-
tion to patron saint; and so 1t is
that the prophesied return of the mis-.
slonary to the isle has had a his.
toric bearing upon certain of its char
acteristics and events, so that even
the passing of the home rule bill has
met IN certain remote districts OF Ire
land with the turn Of phrase. III St.
fatrick came back now, tbs the
pleased man he'd be-"
And, indeed. If st. Patrick were to
return to the island to which he came
SO many centuries ago he would find
some marvellous changes wrought by
the early years of the twentieth cen
tury. For Ireland has been passing
through a peaceful revolution and Its
results would be even more apparent
to watchful patron than they would
be to the average observer.
The revival, of the Irish language
has a history of tremendous interest
to the student of craftsmanship. The
system of summer schools for stu.
dents in the districts where the Irish
language was still living language
has been strikingly successful and has
done much to break down the section
alism of Ireland.
Although the passage of the home
rule bill through the commons is nomi-
nally the most important event in the
history of Ireland in the last two dec.
ades. nevertheless the student of
Irish history recognizes that the
measure is merely the elimination Of
lreland's struggle to maintain her ma.
tionality. And should st. Patrick
come back to his island he would find
that Ireland had. by remembering

the instability of politics. And he told
this story in support of his contention:
A certain politician was running for
Office in district where he was hope

after year, and was showed under with
regularity which became monot-
onous.
But still he kept on running.
A friend protested. The friend had
been watching the politicians untir-
ing efforts, and was perfectly con-
vinced that he was wasting his young
life He concluded with the remark:
You haven't chance in the
world"
''The thunder haven't" retorted
the politician, Indignantly.
The friend was astonished.
How do you figure you're going to
have chance?" he inquired.
The politician thought for mo-
ment.
Well" he said at last, there's al
ways chance of my opponent falling

state College Asks More Funds.

Denver. - Increased appropriations
and the removal of limitations on the
transfer of funds from one department
to another to meet various exigencies
are sought for the State Agricultural
College, through the present Legisla-
ture by members of the Colorado
Farmers Congress. Sixty thousand
dollars, the average annual fund ap
prorpriated by the Legislatures for
educational purposes in the last six
years, is held to be totally inadequate
to meet increased needs of the col
lege as result Of its rapid growth.
The total appropriations of the college
in the last three biennial periods has
been $4,000 to $s5,O0O year. 100000
of which has been definitely set aside
for educational purposes and the rest
for experimental work. Under provi-
sions OF these appropriations, the edu-
cational department has not been per-
mitted to draw from the experimental
fund or vice versa, condition which,
it is claimed. is grossly unfair to the
institution, when it has been possible
to economic in the experimental de-
partment and extend its surplus to the
use of the others in need of additional

NEW HAVEN REJECTS
 RESTITUTION SUITS
Board of Fifteen Directors
 Formally Declared Elected

New Haven, Oct. 2S.-The present board of fifteen directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail- road Company was formally declared elected today at the stockholders meeting which had recessed over from last night because the tellers had not completed their count of the stock vote. Each director got prac- tically 919,925 votes with none against The acts of the directors were approved by a vote Of 94S,9lO with 14,774 votes cast in approval without the parag graph in the annual report which stated that the directors had deemed it unwise to bring reSti tuition suits against a former manage ment.
 A resolution offered by Asa P French to direct the board to bring restitution suits was rejected 14,533 to 925,124, and the resolution of Hugh w. Ogden to order the directors to stop their opposition to the suit Of minority stockholders against former directors was defeated by the same stock vote.
 Two Directors Present.
 At the meeting President Hadley of Yale and Eli Whitney were the only directors present. Stockholders mum bered less than ten. President Elliott opened the meeting when the tellers were ready.
 W. Perry Curtis for the majority of the committee said that 960,194 shares had been voted of which 6.096 voted by proxy were not counted as the proxies were irregular.
 Arthur Berenson of Boston, filed a minority report objecting to the counting of approximately 950,000 shares on the ground that proxies for them were solicited by the directors. He objected to Secretary Clark and President Elliott voting 430,51G shares because the proxies were either given by persons having no authority to give proxies or had not filed their auth ority to do so with the proxies. He objected to counting votes cast by William Rockefeller, I. De Yer Warner, Charles M. Pratt and others who might be interested in the pend ing suit of the minority stockhold- ers or the voting of shares by cor porations where no certified copy of the vote authorizing an officer of the corporation to vote the stock ap- pears on file.

A MARTYR TO SCIENCE.
Peter Roberts, Former Local Man, Dies In San Francisco Hospital

Peter Roberts of San Francisco, formerly of this city, died in a hospi- tai there this week following a two years illness which was the result of an accident which was considered trivial at the time, it being simply a broken bone in the wrist. An ab- normal growth followed and amputa- tion was advised. MT. Roberts said he preferred death to losing his hand.
 Six months ago he entered hos pital where experiments with toxin serums were tried. The treatment weakened the patient but as his let ters home were all hopeful his death came as a shock. MT. Roberts is survived by his wife, five daughters and one son. Mrs. Roberts left here yesterday for Oscoda, Mich, where the body will be buried.
