"You admit there are only 365

Castle, was apprehended as he was
saying farewell to Judge Curran' s
daughter, to whom he was devoted.
His speech delivered on the scaffold
the following day is one of the best
known examples of impassioned Irish
oratory. William Smith O'Brien,
from the South of Ireland, was the
leader of the rebellion of 1S4S, in
which Dublin took little part. The
Fenian Society's activities of 1867,
both in ireland and in America, kept
the capital city in a turmoil for
many weeks.
Dublin Castle, which figures so
conspicuously in the city's uprisings,
is an unimposing structure built orig
inally during the first quarter of the
18th century. 1t covers nearly three
times as much ground as the United
States Capitol building in Washing
ton. Another building of impress
sive size, covering five acres, is now
occupied by the Bank of Ireland but
was formerly used as the House Of
Parliament. The most famous in
stitution of the city is Dublin Uni
versity, or Trinity college, founded
under charter from Queen Elizabeth
in 1891.
Commercially Dublin is famous for
il poplins, its whiskey and its porter,
At one time its wooden, cotton and
linen manufactures were extensive.

for himself and wife at c. E. Browns

( figured that he had one more possess

Would Brown take Mrs. Gates and
hold her as security for the uncol-

beamed upon Gates proposal. The
pawn ticket was duly made out, the
wife delivered to the landlord and
Gates set out. with high resolves.
Today the husband had enough
money to get his wife out of pawn.
Brown asked for the return of the
pawn ticket before delivering his Sc
curity. Gates couldn't find it. There

question of principal interest, and
the two men fought while the woman
sat on her trunk, not knowing wheth-

Judge w. d. Chamberlain settled
the argument. He allowed Brown $41

Then the Judge fined the men SIS

WILL AGAIN SEEK
PARDON FOR Son
MOTHER OF SLAYER OF FATHER
BELIEVES CONVICT HAS
PAID PENALTY.

Lexington, KY, May 22.-To buy
a Bluegrass farm and build a new
home for herself and her son, Beach,
is the dream of Mrs. Louellen Hargis,
of Jackson, who is now recovering
from a nervous breakdown, and plan
ming as she rests on her bed in the
Good Samaritan hospital TO renew the
fight of years TO secure parole for
her boy.
Mrs. Hargis believes Beach will
shortly be allowed to walk through
the grim portal of the gray stone
house at Frankfort. where he is held
for killing his father, Judge James
Hargis, and lend his strong arms to
the support OF his mother in the sun
set years.
Cheerful in spite of the worn and
broken nerves, and hopeful with a
hope that is born of love and faith
fulness, Mrs. Hargis is today resting
in a sunny room at the Good Samari-
tan, planning what she will do If
Beach is restored to her. Her indom-
table courage is all that has kept
her alive through trials that, to use
her expression, would have killed a
dozen women before now" She still
has the courage TO believe that COVER
nors and prison boards will decide
that Beach has suffered enough for
his misdeed, and that he has earned
a chance to go out in the world and
try again.
L Mrs. Hargis seemed glad to see a
reporter who called on her Saturday.
She said she was feeling much better
than she did when she came here a
week ago. Just after an unsuccessful
effort to win parole for her son last
November Mrs. Hargis broke down
and was compelled to remain in bed
for a long time She was very sick
during the winter months and mem
bers of the family once despaired OF
her life.

History of Ireland.

Washington. May 20.-While the
eyes of the world were turned to-
wards Ireland and the centers of the
Sim Fein revolt, officials of the Ma
floral Geographic Society, familiar
with every detail of Irish history, re-
counted stories of former internal
strife on the island.
They point out that there have
been many stormy scenes in Dublin,
the Irish capital, even in its legen-
Diary history, as far back as the third
century of the Christianera, being
filled with series of conflict. One of
the earliest episodes was the defeat
of the people of the surrounding
province by the inhabitants of the
t2wn in 29l A. d.

country districts for those of the city.
The occurrence is commemorated in
Irish chronicles as the Black Monday
of 1909. II was during the Easter
holidays of that year, strangely
paralleling the time of the present
revolt, that the Irish of the surround
ing mountains rushed down into the
valley of the Liffey river, on whose
banks Dublin is situated, and, while
the inhabitants were celebrating the
religious holiday, 500 were killed.
The place of the massacre is still
known as Bloody Fields, and for
many years, i'm order to keep alive
the sense of outrage aginst the hill
people, the citizens on each an
niversary of Black Monday would
march to the scene of the massacre.

Even in the early days the yigor
with which the people of Dublin
waged their internecine strifes did
not lessen the impetuosity with
which they entered upon any conflict
with a foreign invader. They tore
down their churches to secure stones
for their walls when preparing for
the defense of their city against Ed
ward Bruce in 1915, and when the
Irish governor, who had yielded to
the enemy, fell into the hands of the
defenders, he was brought to Dublin
and starved to death.
One of the most spectacular out
breaks of the sixteenth century was
that led by Silken Thomas (Sir
Thomas Fitzgerald) a daring young
nobleman, who, upon hearing that
his father had been beheaded in the
tower of London. raised large army
and marched to the gates of Dublin,
where he was admitted by the in
undated citizens. Shortly after
ward, however, when he endeavored
to lave the city he found the gates
locked. He made his escape, carry
ing with him some of the children of
the city, and with these as hostages
he managed to secure the release Of
all his followers. Subsequently this
rebellion was quelled and the leaders
were executed at Tyhurn in 1886.
II was more than a hundred years
after the death OF Sir Thomas that
conspiracy to seize Dublin was re-
vealed by owen Connolly on the day
before the attemp. was to have been
made. This was during the rebellion
of 1641, and il was Connolly's in
formation that saved Dublin for the
King. Cromwell, James II, and Will
liam III in turn visited Dublin with
armed forces.
Another Fitzgerald doomed up as a
factor in Irish unrest about the time
of the French revolution. He was
Lord Edward Fitzgerald leader of
the United Irishmen. who had re-
ceived his military training in Amer
lea. serving under Lord Rawdon in
the Revolutionary War. Lord Ed
ward was one of the most picturesque
Irish leaders of the 18th century and
his beautiful wife, the famous Pam
ella, was an equally appealing figure
in the revolution of 1898, during
which Lord Edward was captured
and thrown into prison where he died
of wounds received in the struggle
with the officers who arrested him
while in bed.

tomobiles would follow the circle to the
right, and vehicles. the drivers OF when
desired TO cross Fifth Avenue, would
merely swing into the circle, Mr.. Emo
said that. with no blockading, the
stream Of vehicles would not be so
thick, 50 that vehicles would find no
difficulty in breaking into and out OF
the circle of moving traffic, MS they now
do in Columbus Circle. 60.
