such great success at the LaSalle
Opera House in Chicago. The book
and lyrics are by Arthur Gillespie and
the show is staged by Frank Tame,
i'll Jr, while the music is by Aubrey
Stauffer.
The production is well saged and
handsomely costumed. The music is
lifting and catchy and there Is plenty
of dancing and comedy interspersed
to keep the offering from being at all
slow. Some of the costumes are
rather daring and seemed to please
the gallery patrons immensely. One
song and dance number which was
especially pleasing was "The Sun
shade Girl" song and dance. "a
Sparerib from the Butcher Shop OF
Life" as given by Leon Greenwood,
was well worth while. It devolves on
Greenwood to furnish most of the
comedy for the offering and he does
It in a manner entirely satisfactory.
Miss Joe Taylor. as Argentina, "the
graceful and petite young woman. She
may not be the worlds greatest tan
goist, but she can certainly dance.
Miss Georgia Ellen, as Louise Storm,
did much of the singing and did 1t
in a manner that pleased. Her rendi-
tion of Beautiful Dreams I'm Dream
ing" was especially well received.
John Patton. who enacted the role OF
"Bunkum," is the possessor of an ex-
cellent voice and his where Is the
Pleasure in Wine and Song? was all
that could be desired.
In fact, September Morn" was
pleasing from any angle. Manager
Greenwall deserves special common
dation for bringing such attractions

IRISH AReoR DAY.

The Secretary of the Irish Forestry
Society, in urging the people of Ire
land to cooperate in replanting the
waste lands of Ireland, and establish
ing in Ireland as in the States an an
nual national Arbor Day. Advocating
the planting of trees in suitable
groups, he says:
ireland, once called Mis- no Fidba'
the Island of the Woods, and praised
by bard and poet as the beauty spot
of the world, now lies under the stig-
ma of having the least percentage of
land under trees of any country in Eu-
rope. Arbor Day would, we believe,
have the effect of bringing about such
an extensive planting of trees, as
would take away this reproach, and
regain for us our ancient fame
amongst the nations.
where any doubt or uncertainty ex-
lists, the Irish Forestry Society will be
pleased to advise as to the best means
to adopt to carry out the idea of an
Arbor Day, and will be glad to give
expert information as regards the
kinds of trees best suited to any par
ticular soil or position"

IRELAND AND THE WAR,

IRELAND AND THE WAR.
(From the Newark Evening Starr
The result of a Dublin by.election for
Parliament is among the many dis.
quieting incidents for the British gov.
eminent. The O'Mahony, who was
beaten by Alderman Byrne, was a
strong supporter of the war policy and
represented the loyal faction of the
Irish Nationalist which followed John
Redmond's leadership. The O'Ma.
hony wore his officers uniform at
every meeting, and a few days before
the election the Irish Times declared:
1T will be scandal if the man who
has made the justice of the war and
the need Of victory his chief issue is
defeated in the city of the Dublin Flu
siliers." But defeated he was, and by
an opponent who advised the Irish
volunteers to keep on drilling and
arming in preparation for the day
when they might be called upon to
look after their own country" the ref
erence being not to German inva-
sion.
Byrne also denounced the defense
act, and called for the re-
lease of those already imprisoned I'M

A FEDERALIZED IRELAND.

If the same measure of auton-
omy were offered to some of Eng
lands colonial dependencies as
has been offered to Ireland in the
spirit which the so-called Home
Rule was offered, as for example,
Canada and Australia, the mea-
sure would not only be rejected,
but the very offer would spread
alarm among those who would
see in it a curtailment of their
political liberties. 1t is important
at this time to review the posi-
ton taken by Lloyd George on
the Home Rule question. Very
recently the publication of the
life of Lloyd George has come
from the press in which the auth
or, Beriah Evans, sums up the at
titude of his subject in the follow
ing words: "He Speaking of
Lloyd George, was never enthu-
siastic in the cause of Irish Home
Rule as a separate measure. His
interest in Irish Home Rule was
on the Federal Principle, with

Ex-sEcRETARY OF STATE OBJ.
JEcTS.

Ex-Secretary of State Philander c.
Knox, speaking at the dinner Of the
Five O'Clock Club in Philadelphia,
said that the coinage Of the phrase
hyphenated-citizenship was an unfor-
tunate thing.
Some clever man recently coined
the expression 'hyphenated citizen
ship This has done great mischief.
1t has placed millions of our Ameri-
can citizens, If not under suspicion,
at least in a position where they be-
come sensitive. We have always been
accustomed to hyphenated American
ism. The very nature of our country's
population makes it SO. I, for one, de-
sire to discourage the idea of discred-

Of their adoption of term merely de-

IRISH TEMPLE FOR CHICAGO.
Irish-Americans in Chicago have un-
dertaken with true Irish zeal the cree.
ton of an Irish temple, music, arts
and literature. Tie plans call for the
erection of a building to cost $500, 900.
Elaborate plans were made for the
celebration of the centenary of John
Mitchell, as well as the observance of
the anniversary of the Manchester
martyrs. The receipts from the pro.
grams given have swelled the build
ing fund to a considerable amount.
The movement for the erection of
buildings dedicated to the interests of
the Irish in America seems to be con-
tagious. In different sections of the
country, Irish-Americans have under
taken the erection of excellent homes
to be used as gathering place for all
those interested in the perpetuation of
the Irish ideals in the interests of
the present generation and those to
follow.
