One and three dollar gold pieces were formerly coined but they were discontinued in 1se0 The nrst coin called an eagle was used in Ireland in the thirteenth century. and was so called from the tfigure of an eagle impressed upon it. but it WAS made of base metal. The standard oEi the eagle was borne by the ancient Persia ns. and the Romans also carried Soid and silver eagles as ensigus. and sometimes represented them with a thunderbelt in their +talons. CharIe- 'razne adopted the double-headed eagle as the standard of the Holy Roman empire. The eagle was the standard of Napoleon and Napoleon III. as well as of Austria, Prussia and Russia.

Historical ,nexaetitudes.

We are celebrating-or rather, should be celebrating-the tercente- nary of Sir Walter Raleigh. When he was confined in the Tower Of London he saw from his window an affray in the courtyard-an affray which ended in the stabbing and killing of a man. Talking of this to the governor, Sir Walter was surprised to find that all his ideas as to what happened, all his deductions from what he had seen, were utterly at variance with the facts. If I am so inaccurate as to what passes before my eyes how can hope 10 be accurate in The History of the World I am writing:" sighed Sir Walter. How, indeed?

FIRST OPPORTUNITY FOR NATION
TO HEAR NOTED ROMAN CHoIRs

cellence which could not be possible
under any other circumstances.
Rt. Rev. Msgr. Maestro Casimiro
Casimiri, who has gathered this mar
velous Pontifical choir, is making this
trip to see that every detail towards
its success is given the required at
tention. He was able to make his
selections from the most notable sing
ers of the Roman Basilicas, including
men long associated with the choirs
of the Sistine Chapel, St. Peters
Basilica, st. John Lateran and the
Schola Cantorum. In the 1000 years
that higher sacred music has been de-
veloping under the guidance of the
different Popes at Rome, this is the
first time in history that Pontifical
choir selected from such famous chan
nels has ever been heard outside of
the Vatican.
The great honor bestowed upon
America and Canada by this arrange
ment cannot fail to arouse a deep
sense of appreciation and gratitude in
the hearts of all who shall enjoy the
privilege of hearing one or more of
the concerts.
Maestro Casimiri is one of the
youngest men associated with musical
developments in the Vatican to attain
such honors as have been bestowed
upon him. He is at present Canon of
st. John Lateran; director of the Pom
tifical Lateran Chapel and Master of
Composition under the esteemed
Father de Santi of the great Schola
Cantorum. The presence of Maestro
Casimiri with the choir will lend addi-
tional inspiration to the concerts and
assure their artistic success.

BERNARD SHAW ON WAR BY THE
ENGLISH.

when the ruling Englishman wants
a thing he never tells himself that
he wants it. He waits patiently till
there comes into his mind, no one
knows how, a burning conviction that
it is his moral and religious duty to
conquer those who have got the thing
he wants.
''Then he becomes irresistible. Like
the aristocrat, he does what pleases
him, and grabs what he covets. He is
never at loss for an effective moral
attitude. AS the great champion of
freedom and national independence, he
conquers and annexes half the world,
and calls it colonization. You will
never find an Englishman in the
wrong. He does everything on prin-
ciple. He fights you on patriotic
principles; he DULLES you on manly
principles. His watchword is always
Duty; and he never forgets that the
nations which let's it's duty get on the
opposite side to it's interests is lost"

strenuously as they please, and none
of these writer's bring that point up
against them In the very issue of
the New York World that contained
the sentence quoted above long press

versy waged in the United States
Senate over the League of Nations,
of the disputes in France over Ger.
tain sections of the Peace Treaty, of
the riots and strikes in Italy, and in
fact of the discussions in all coun-
tries of the world, including England,
But no one ever thinks of pointing to
these Emergencies as signs of national
weakness. Why then this continual
picking on Ireland and characterizing
differences of opinion among her
people as national weakness? Is it
not one phase of the insidious British

let by-gones be by-gones.
A worthy sentiment!-but is that
boast of the English that "a home
and country they'd leave us no
more" dead issue? Have the stains
of their intrusion been washed out?
The poor hireling soldiers of 1912 are
indeed long in their graves. But the
foul footsteps pollution" of far dead
lier foes, the British propagandists,
stains trail across the page of Ameri.
can history from that day to this, a
Shiny trail through every department
of American life-in the halls of gov
eminent, in the sanctum of the press,
in dishonored pulpits, in violated
schools, in falsified histories and en-
cyclopedias, in subtle books, in the
theater and the moving picture!
No! The British purpose has never
relented, to leave us in fact home
and country no more-to reduce the
great Republic again to a mere prov
ince in the British Empire. This is
the supreme danger confronting the
American people today, in the form
80 20 =.
and forms of insidious encroachment
upon the traditions of America. Patri-
otism like that of Francis Scott Key
is the need of our country today. And
Americans Of Irish blood, who pre-
vented the supplanting of "The Star

God Save the King" must lead in

not merely victorious but with its
territory, the number of it's helpless
subjects and its power vastly increas-
ed. In principle, according to any
standard of right or justice, there is
no difference whatever. Yet the Eng.
fish Empire robes itself in virtue and
assumes the leadership Of the concert
of civilization, even assuming the title
of protector of small nations!
But in every quarter of England's
mighty empire her slaves are rising.
The Irish people, veterans in the cause
of human liberty for 700 years, lead
the revolt and are determined that the
mask shall be torn from Britain and
the truth be shown to all men and
nations. 1t is particularly the task
of that major portion of the Irish race
which has found homes and liberties
in America, and which has paid Amer
lea for them by toll in peace and de.
votion in war, to wage this battle of
truth against falsehood till the aroused
opinion of mankind makes England a
pariah among nations unless she
ceases from her iniquities and grants
freedom to her slaves.
This is the work for the Irish race
In America today, a work requiring
devotion, unremitting effort and
money. The money must be supplied.
The most pressing and immediate
duty lying before every Irishman who
would vindicate his right to that title
is to give, give to the limit of his
own resources, and work increasingly
to secure the assistance of all Ameri-
cans to aid the Irish cause.

Great Masters Of Church Music Leav.
ing Rome for American Tour;
First on Record; They Will
Appear in This City in the
Auditorium in Qetober.

Following the authentic announce
ment from Rome as cabled to the
Catholic Press Association under date
of July IL, the St. Gregory Musical
Society of New York, under whose
auspices the tour of these notable
singers from the Roman Basilicas in
the United States and Canada is be-
ing arranged, announces that pre-
lminary details for this momentous
visit are assuming splendid shape.
Within five days after the first pub
LEGATION of the official announcement
that Pope Benedict XIV had given his
consent for the Vatican singers to
visit this country, the gentlemen hav
ing the tour in charge completed ar
engagements for Is concerts, or nearly
half of the entire number of engage
ments that will be played in this
country in as many cities. These ar
rangements are being so shaped that
the choir may be heard in all the i'm
portant centers of the country.
Leave Rome Next Week.
Mr.. James Slevin, president of the
St. Gregory Musical Society, is leav-
ing Rome next week and with him
will come u members of the choir
party from the Vatican, including Rt.
Rev. Msgr. Maestro Casimiro Casimiri,
who will have personal charge of the
concerts to be given on this tour.
Mr.. Carl Reed, who recently re-
turned from Rome, where he was in
consultation with dignitaries of the
Vatican, will be in personal charge of
the organization en- tour. The purpose
of the tour Mr.. Reed explains is to
inspire deeper interest in the art of
polyphOnic singing. For such inspira-
ton one naturally turns to the seat
of the greatest musical art centers
where for centuries masters have
striven with fervor and zeal to enrich
the world with their finest achieve
ments. These contributions piling up
for centuries have established a
library beyond compare, and from this
inexhaustible material will be selected
the programs of the concerts which
are to be given on the American tour.

When Francis Scott Key, prisoner
on British man-of-war, wrote the
immortal anthem of the Republic, he
reached the climax of patriotic fervor
in those first lines of the third stanza:
"And where is that band
Who so vauntingly swore
Mid the havoc of war and the battles
confusion,
A home aid a country they'd leave
us no mores
Their blood has washed out
Their foul footsteps pollution!"

ON AMERICAS WINDING ITS OWN
BUSINESS.
CONTINUED from Page ~

There is no other subject nation in
all Europe that has lost half its popu-
lation in half a century as the direct
result of an unjust government, an
tagonistic in race and religion, which
because Of this racial and religious
antagonism has taxed Irish Industries
out of existence because they COM
peted with English industries, and has
reduced the whole country practically
to an agricultural basis and compelled
the younger and more enterprising
and adventurous of the Irish people
to leave the land of their birth and
seek elsewhere opportunities which
should have been provided for them
at home.
There is no imperial government on
the face of the earth except England
which has not considered its subject
nations as integral parts of its en-
pire and realized the self.evident
proposition that the prosperity Of the
integral parts of the empire meant
the prosperity of the empire as a
whole. It is only England among the
empires of the earth that has been
willing to sacrifice the prosperity and
unity of it's empire to the gratifica-
ton of its racial and religious hos
tilities.
The citizens of the United States
and the government of the United
States have made a war in behalf of
oppressed nations and in the interests
of humanity and democracy and the
particular principle Of self-determina-
ton. Britain has been the chief bene-
ficiary of this war, and has not only
not released her own subject nations
but, as a result Of the war, has &C.
CURED new subject nations over which
to exercise her dominion.
II the people Of the United States
have not succeeded because of the fail
ure Of their representatives in Paris
in releasing the oppressed nations
under Great Britain's militaristic and
imperialistic sway, they still feel that
they have the right as citizens of this
free republic to sympathize with these
oppressed subject nations and to hope
that they, too, in time may secure
their independence as a Justification
for the American bloodshed in this
war in behalf of the liberties of the
world.
The United States will mind its own
business, but 1t will not abandon it's
democratic principles, it's humanitar.
ian sympathies and it's international
rights.
Finally we suggest to Sir Edward
Carson as a preliminary to his advis.
ing the United States to mind its own
business that he advise Great Britain
to mind her own business; to stop
flooding this country with pro. british
propaganda and anti-Irish propaganda
and propaganda opposed to everything
