WHY THE SHAMROCK is WORN
Custom Not Only in Honor Of the Saint,
but in Remembrance Of Days
Of Famine.

Few who put Sprig Of shamrock
in their buttonhole on the 18th of
March realize that these little green
leaves more than once kept the Irish
from death in dire famine times.
In 1896 the poet Spenser declares
that the war had brought the miser-
able inhabitants of Munster To point
crosses or shainrocks as to feast
In his "view of Ireland he describes
this as the depth of ruin to which Il
land formerly having abundant corn
and cattle had been plunged.
The trOubous times continued and
the shamrock II mentioned as an ar
ticle of food again and again. Fynes
Morrison. in 1898, writes that the herb
is still being snatched out of the
bitches for food"
WithcrS in abuses Stript and
Whipt" (lGlD sings:
And for my clothing in a mantle go
And feed on shamrocks as the Irish doe.
Not until later was the shamrock
Nathaniel Colgan, member of the
Royal Irish academy. says the earliest
record of the wearing o. the green"
is contained in the diary of Thomas
Dlnely. who wrote in 1857:
18th day of March yearly is st.
Patrick. an immovable feast, when the
Irish of all stations aud conditions
wear crosses in their hats, some Of
pins. some of green ribbon. and the
vulgar SuperStltiously wear sham
rogucs. thrce-lenved grass which they
likewise eat Uhey say to cause n
sweet breath).' The common people
and servants also demand their Pat
rlck'S great Of their masters, which
they go expressly to town. though half
dozen miles of, to spend, where
sometimes it amounts to piece of
eight or cobb apiece. and very few
Of the Jealous are found sober at
night"
A later reference to the wearing OF
the shamrock appears in the works of
DIR. Caleb Threlkeld botanist of the
'"A9 tiSuNtthth century. ne says
"rhe people wear the plant in their
hats in comnemoration of st. Patrick
believing that st. Patrick used the
three-lhbcd leaf to explain the Chris
tian Trinity. This belief is generally
said by antiquarians to have arisen
in the fourteenth century. almost q
thousand years after the time of PA
tritius," who died in A. ID. 403.
In that year. says the Annale oi
Ulster, "PniritiuS. the arch-apostle OF
the Scott UrislD rested on the 10th
day of The calcnds OF April (Marcl
I'D in the one hundred and twentieth
year of his life, the Sixtleth year after
he had come To Ireland to baptize tn,
Scott"

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp Root. DR.. Kilmer's PreScrip-
ton, 0verc0mes Kidney Trouble

1t is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
az they control the other organs to re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
tiitering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as.
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercse, drink less water and often eat
more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion,
rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid
neys require help Immediately to avoid
more serious trouble
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and
bladder remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t
IS DR.. Kilmers prescription used in pri.
vate practice and it is sure to benefit you.
Get bottle from your druggist.
However, If you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
klmer d Co., Binghamton, n. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

All of His Own Race.

One enthusiastic writer tells US that
''in New York today an Irishman may
rise in the morning and battle in the
water from Croton dam, built by Irish
James Coleman; breakfast on Cudahy
bacon. then take the subway, planned
by John Mcdonald, past the College
of the City of New York, built by
Thomas Dwyer, to his Office in a sky
scraper built by John ID. Crimmins.
Arrived at his Office, he may cable to
Alaska over Il telegraph line laid by
David Lynch, order certain freight
sent by james J. Hills Great North
ern railway, and then may rest and
read William Laffin's New York Sun,
delivered by the American News COM
pany, founded by Patrick Farrelly.
Then, If it happens to be springtlme,
he may lean from his window and toss
Il coin to the hurdy-gurdy man who
plays st. Patrick's Day."

is little chapel on the mountain top.
But ii is So small that few can find u
place therein. and most kneel outside.
The sermons preached are in Gaelic,
and the masses continue from day
break until noon.
st. Patrick is on record as having
visited The Reek in A. u. AL and
spent forty days on its summit, hid
den from the world by the mists hang
ing about the lower portion of the
mountain. The legend says that he
was assailed by huge black birds.
which only took to flight when he
rang his bell against them. The bell
rolled down the mountain. but an an
gel came and restored it to the saint.
All the men of Erin heard this ring
ing of the bell, and it is stated now
that it is often heard again.
Afterward st. Patrick was visited by
angels and from their leader he wrest-
ed the following pledges: That rs
many souls should be saved as could
fill the horizon which he looked upon
that on every Thursday seven souls
and on every Saturday twelve souls
should be freed from purgatory; that
whoever recited the last verse of his
hymn constantly should suffer no tor
fnents in the next world, and that on
the last day he should be appointed to
sit in judgment on the sins of Gael.

MORE TEACHERS
ARE NECESSARY
HIGH-SCHOOL COURSE TO BE
PRACTICALLY SAME AS
LAST YEAR

Three hundred and thirteen
pupils are now registered in the
grades of the local schools, with sc
in the high-school making a total
attendance of 379, with prospects
that the total will receive an apprs-
cable increase within the mex two
weeks.
This unexpected attendance has
made necessary two additional
teachers. one for the fifth grade
and one for the fourth. Miss Mar
tina Bihler of Bisbee, Ariz., will
arrive Thursday to take charge of
the fifth grade and Superintendent
Weslar is now negotiating for a
fourth grade teacher, Miss Agnes
Duffy, who is now teaching the
fourth grade, will be transferred
to the first grade class at the Sun
dog school.
Two first grades will be establish
ed next week, one in the high-school
building and n in the Sundog
sessions, morning and afternoon, in-
stead of a halliday as heretofore.
The school authorities are now
arranging to provide practically TIE
same courses in the high-school as
last year. The only subjects given
last year that have been ~discontin-
ued this year are first year steno-
graphy, first and second year draw
ing and penmanship. Additional
subjects taught this year are gen.
eral science and third year sewing.
The school attendance is divided
into grades as follows: Eighth, "a;
seventh, OF; sixth, 80. fifth. II,
fourth, "A; third, 32; second, 46:
first, CT; high school, &C. Next
week the first grade will be divided
as evenly as possible between the
Sundog and high school buildings,

of potash in the world, he said, is

added, depends upon congress, to
which an appeal has been made by

ORE EXPOSED
IN RUBY MOUNTAIN
OF SHEEPHERDER
Is BASIS OF MINING
DEAL

A deal was consumated yesterday
whereby j.. S. Carter sold to San
tiago OdiagO, Marine Aralucea,
Pedro Olalarria, Pete Jauregui and
Antonio Jauregui. his silver-lead
mining claims in Long canyon. at
the head of the South Fork in the
Ruby Mountains. There are three
claims known at Ruby No. l. , and
3, and the purchase price was ST.
600.
This property was discovered by
one of Mr.. Carter's sheepherders
about a Year g and the surface
indications were so good that he
started to develop the mine. The
ledge was uncovered for a distance
of several hundred feet. and could
be traced for a considerable dis
lance. A shaft vas sunk on the
ore, and the values. which run
mostly in lead and a few ounces in
silver. will average $1S5.
The new me now have about
so tons of ore out on the dump
ready for shipment, and as soon as
