PARISH MEETINGS

London. April 16.-Meetings to pro-

many parishes in Ireland, all classes

a dispatch from Dublin to the Times.
Clergy took leading part in all the
meetings. Resolutions of protest are
pouring in from public bodies and
Sinn Fein clubs are very active.
"Unquestionably," the dispatch
adds, "the present temper of Nation
alist Ireland is very deplorable. The
country has lost all sense of proper
ton and has forgotten, not merely
home rule but the war. It is a coun-
try of contradictions, however, Lor in
Dublin and some other towns Volun-
tarY recruiting has been remarkably
good in the last few days.
The committee which is in charge
of the drafting of an Irish home rule
bill, says The Times, includes u. Aus
ten Chamberlain, former secretary
for India. This, it adds, is a "fact
which suggests that he already is OF
is about to become a member of the
war cabinet
The same paper prints an appeal
from Unionist members of parliament
urging the immediate Introduction OF
measure of home rule, "as generous
as can be devised by the light Of the
recent discussions of the Irish conven.
ton and in harmony with the ultimate
goal of federal devolution."

LONDON NEWSBOY
PROVES FERO|SM
IN The TRENCHES

Behind the British Lines in France,
April 16.---(Correspondence Of the AS
cociated Press.)---One of the familiar
characters of pre-war days ia London
was street Arab newsboy who sold
freQue nted by American visitors. De-
lighting in the nickname Frog faced
Tich,'' he won the admiration OF Wis
itors as master of repartee, vary
ing his nightly refrain of "A11 the
Winners and "'Orrible Murder with
ironical comments on the worlds
events and caustic replies to pedes-
TRANS who ventured to handy words
with him as they passed
Persons who knew Itch Tapley in
the old days would scarcely recognize
him now In his khaki uniform, with
Crowned" ribbon on his breast in
dicating that he has been twice
awarded the priced Military Cross
| His comrades of the London Regi-
ment, moreover, declare that if he
had been awarded a medal on every
occasion on which he has merited it
he would he covered with ribbon from
head to foot of his diIninutive body.
Too small to go into the army by
the regular channels, Itch after sew
eral trials, was accepted as stretcher
bearer in the london Regiment. AT
the front, he quickly became one OF
the most popular men in the regi-
ment One of his officers, in report
to headquarters, said of him, Cheer
ifulness, courage, devotion to duty,
amid disregard of danger are as much
a part Of his equipment as his haver-
sack and his water bottle"
Tapley probably looks less like a
hero than any other man in his bat
talon. But his caustic, good-natureo
h1rntor, which was little more than ar
taniable diversion in civilian life, be-
came an invaluable asset in the
trenches, keeping up the morale anc
optimism of the whole battalion. His
officers find themselves continual!
paying tribute to his usefulness II
this respect One Of them wrote IN
letter a short time ago:
His gospel, whether consciously Of
not. is the gospel of cheerfulness, ant
in practice it works out that his splr
its grow lighter in proportion as dan
gers and diecomforts grow heavier
His tests in times of stress provld
Just the electric spark that turns TN
hearts of men from gloomy pesan1sn
into luminous defiance.
The ex-newsboy has the reputation
from Lens to St. Quentin, of oedna
absolutely fearless. In his work a
stretcher-bearer, he goes busll!
about among the failing shells, Away
whiaing a popular tune, with al
ever-reaidy word of sympathy and en-
} couragement for the wounded. He l
b generally looked upon as one "n
hears a charmed life, for he has neVe
received even a scratch, and his yer
/ nresence is regarded as mascot.

JITNEY ROUTES
CHANGED BY The
POLICE BOARD

Despite protest made by Attorney
W W. Bent that the new rules VIII
drive titneys out of business, the Board
of Police Commissioners last night
adopted rules which will eliminate jit-
neys from Main street. 1t is probable
the ruling will be contested in the
courts.
Attorney Bent contended the action
of the Police board is illegal, that it
has no right to usurp the powers
of the Common Council, and that it's
effect will be to increase traffic con-
gestion by making the driving of jit-
neys improbable.
The new routes are adopted upon
the recommendation of the City Traf-
ffc Commission. The routes prescrib-
ed are as follows:
Stanford avenue to Ash Creek (west
bound only
Stratford avenue to- Fairfield to
Middle, to Golden Hill, to Main, to
Elm, to Broad, to Fairfield avenue.
State street-Barnum avenue line
| (east bound)-
State to Main, to Wall, to Middle, to
Congress, to Crescent, to Noble, to
Barnum avenue.
Barnum avenue-State street (west
bound)-
Barnum avenue to Noble avenue, to
Crescent, to Congress, to Main, to Elm
to Broad, to State street.
Compromises offered by Attorney
Bent were rejected by the board.
President J. C. Stanley said the
board had decide to give the routes
recommended a trial, but if they did
not work we'll they could be changed
Other business before the board in
cluded the reading of the report OF
Supt. J. H. Redgate recommending the
purchase of three bicycles for use il
the parks, and the engaging of a drill
master for the force. Many routine
matters were acted upon.
