MANY FAIRIES IN GREEN ISLE

appeared 10 Declared to BE
Altogether Erroneous.

There st:Il are fairies In Ireland, de-
cln"es the Ulster Folklore, which ex-
pains by saying: TO many. perhaps.
this statement will he really news. OF
course. anyone who has never taken
any interest in the matter at ell knows
that IN tie days gone by there were
plenty Of them from one end of the
green isle 10 the other-are not their
old haun;:;. the thorn bushes, their
raths, forts: coves and souterraines
still to be found in every corner of
Ireland just as they have existed
since time out OF mind?
But 1t has been the general belief
that the fairies themselves long ago,
In one fashion or another, had for
saken or been driven from their Sc
cret places, the last hes!ra being
placed at as modern a period as the
middle of the nineteenth century--the
night of the big wind, in fact when
they were all supposed to have been
blown into the sea with the exception
Of few that landed in Scotland.
The error of that belief, however,
has been scientifically ascertained in a
series of investigations pursued by
Miss Elizabeth Andrews, F. R. A. L,
for decade or so.
'"The belief is general" Miss An.
drews says, that these little people
were at one time very numerous
throughout the country, but have now
disappeared from many of their for
mer haunts. At Ballynahinch I was
told they had been blown away so
years ago by great storm, and the
caretaker at Killevy said they had
gone to Scotland. They are, however,
supposed still to inhabit the more re-
mote parts Of the country, and the old
people have many stories Of fairy WIS.,
itors and Of what happened in their
own youth and in the time Of their
fathers and grandfathers."

TO FIGHT OUT BONUS.

Wy OAAtVA = AS0Ss/
Rochester, N. Y, Nov. 10.-Lead-
ers of the New York delegation to
the national convention at Mime
apolis will lead fight to prevent
the legion from endorsing demand
for an additional bonus to soldiers,
they announced before leaving for
the west.
Losing the first skirmish in state
convention here to prevent adoption
of the provision, the men opposing
the bonus declared if the voting had
been on a basis of actual representa-
ton by counties the resolution would
have been defeated. They pointed
out that while New York county had
40 per cent Of the states legion men,
bership, the county cast only II votes
Of the IT'S.
New York's delegates will urge
stricter immigration laws; divorce of
politics from the legion; government
provision for disabled soldiers and
::departation for undesirables.

BLIGHT HARD ON CHESTNUTs
Disease Bids Fair to Wipe Out Com.
pIetsly Both the Tree and Fruit
In Maryland.

According to the announcement
Of State Forester Besley Of Mary
land chestnuts will be scarce this
year, and he also predicts that tho
chestnut tree and its fruit will some
day be but memory.
In the vicinity of Baltimore tho
chestnut crop is negligible. The
fine groves that once were found in
this section of the country have all
but disappeared, following the raw
ages of the blight, and, according to
the state forester, this will eventual
ly be the fate of the chestnut
wherever it grows. There is no
remedy for the strange disease. The
only hope is the mountain regions of
the western part of the state. The
blight is spreading all too rapidly in
that direction, but as yet the region
west of Hagerstown is still in pretty
good condition, according to Mr..
Besley. He reports, however, that
the blight was discovered by him
this season in Carrot county. 1t is
said to be product of China and is
supposed to have been imported to
this country on some specimens of
Chinese chestnuts which were plant
ed in the vicinity Of Long Island.
State and national experts have
worked on the problem increasingly.

ANTI.ALIEN LAND LAW,

(By United Press.)
San Francisco, CAL, Nov. 10.-A
national anti-alien law that would
prohibit persons not eligible to Amer
lean citizenship from owning or leas-
ing land will be the main resolution
which the California delegates to the
national convention of the American
Legion at Minneapolis will fight for.
The proposed law is based on the
present California anti-alien land
laws which prohibit orientals from
owning land in the state, but its pro-
visions are even more strict in inter-
probation.
Other recommendations that will
be made to the national convention
are: A resolution asking withdrawal
of American troops from Siberia; a
resolution calling for standing army
Of 350,000; approval. of compulsory
military training for six months of
all youths in their nineteenth year.
Sixteen delegates went as repre-
sentatives of the eleven congressional
districts, while four were selected at
large.

MANY KINDS, AND ALL GOOD
That Would Seem to Be the Verdict
Of Humanity on the Great
Question. Of Pies.

They were talking about pies and
discussing which was the best, and.
what we gathered from the cheerful
controversy, all were the best.
The person who stood up for the
good old apple pie was just as eloquent
in his references to the peach or pump
kin pie. In fact, each person would
hurry through the praise Of one kind
Of pie In order to champion another,
which convinced US that Of all the
varieties Of food in this world the pie
is the blessedest.
Sometimes you will find man who
doesn't eat pie, but watch him. Pie is
4 remedy for many distempers. We
one time cured a ferocious sick head
ache with a quarter Of mince pie, and
that, too, on the advice Of physician.
One Of the party never heard Of
mulberry pie, and what barren life
she must have led. We are through
with the cherry pie era and with what
Joy it has filed the world! We come
to the berry era, and first Of all there
is the huckleberry pie, which berry
has rescued from sunshine and soil all
the grace of the earth. If man does
not like huckleberry pie, it is be-
cause the pie or himself has not been
well made. The black raspberry pie
stands away up on the snowy peaks Of
perfection and for picnic purposes it is
unparalleled. When we eat raspberry
pie in the woods we feel that the
Dryads are feeding US from their lily
white hands.
There, are other glorious. pies, OF
course, but we must have room to say
that the glory Of a pie is in the grace
and charm Of the cook. The pastry
depends upon her temper, and the pas
try is three-fourths Of a pie. II we
were going to get married again, we
would arrange a pastry-making con-
test, and the damsel that made the
best pastry we would marry-af We
could.-Ohio State Journal.

sponsors or "gossips" to a child at its

cause each spoon had a figure of an

pie gave the whole twelve Apostles;
those Of less means and generosity
gave the four Evangelists; while poor

one, being generally the figure Of the
donors or of the child's patron saint.
