Belfast. IS Sir Hamar Greenwood.
chief secretary for Ireland, has in
formed the magistrates of County
Louth that he can hold out no hone
that the British government will re-
verse its decision in the case of Lord
Mayor MacSwiney of Cork on hunger
strike in Brixton Jail. The magistrate
recently sent communication to Sir
Hamar demanding full self-govern-
ment for Ireland, with powers not less
comprehensive than those enjoyed by
any dominion, and calling for the i'm
mediate release Of MacSwiney. The
chief secretary's reply to the magis-
trates say:
Il can hold out no hope of reversal
of the decision of the government in
the case of the lord mayor Of Cork. 1
can assure you the government is de-
sirous Of granting the fullest possible
measure Of self-government to the
Irish people and would welcome an ex.
preston Of moderate opinions directed
to the unfortunate state of affairs"

ment's Attitude.

London.-Terence MacSwiney, lord
mayor of Cork, had bad night, and
was very weak the morning of the
3Stll day of his food strike, according
to Il bulletin issued by the Irish Self
Determination league. The bulletin
stated that Annie MacSwiney, sister
of the lord mayor. had just left Brix-
ton prison and declared his condition
was unchanged except for tile weak
ness incident to his long fast.
In his report to the home Office, the
physician at Brixton prison reported
that the, lord mayors condition was
virtually unchanged.
Lord Mayor MacSwiney on his 3Sth
evening wrote message to lrshmen
throughout the. world on behalf of
himself and the hunger strikers in
Cork Jail. After thanking them for
their sympathy and prayers, the lord
mayor said, according to the London
Times:
"lf this cold blooded murder is
pushed through it will leave a stain
on the name Of England which has no
parallel (even in her history and
which nothing will ever efface. It will
rise before the English people When
ever they offer another people friend
ship. We feel singularly privileged at
being made instruments of God for
evoking suclf world wide expressions
of admiration and support for the
cause of Irish independence and rec
ognition of the Irish republic. If we
are to die, we are called to that even
greater privilege and happiness of en-
terlng the company of those who died
for Ireland.
I'VE forgive all those who are COM
passing our death. This battle is be-
Ing fought with clean hearts, purely
for our country. We have made our
peace with God and bear ill will to-
ward no man."
After invoking Gods blessing upon
all who prayed for the prisoners, Mac
Swiney concluded by saying:
Il believe God is watching over our
country and by his divine decree, her
resurrection is at hand. believe this
is her last battle for liberty and that
God will crown it with complete VIC
tory"

HAVE HIGH SENSE OF HONOR
Chicago Banker Pays Tribute to Chi
nese for Their Thrift and Hon.
esty in Business.

The manager of Chicago savings
bank made an examination of his ac-
counts on racial lines and had the sur
prise of his life. He discovered that
about the most desirable customers
the bank had and the most profitable
were the Chinese. Their average bal
ance was far above the average of all
accounts. In fact, the Chinese came
pretty near to having the largest de-
posits of any patrons Of the institu-
ton. Moreover they were the easiest
of all to please, made the least c)m-
plant and never in the history of the
bank had there been legal difficulty
over a Chinaman's account.
This is not surprising when you
come to consider it. No people have
higher sense of honor than the Chi
nese. They will gamble till the cows
come home, and their ways are pc
culiar, but they are scrupulously hon
est. For q Chinaman to die in debt
to anyone means that his relatives
must and will assume the obligation.
The Chinaman is shrewd trader,
but an honest one. You never see q
Chinese mendicant-never. You never
see a Chinese loafer. The Chinaman
is not work-shy, never was and prob
ably never will be. He is peculiar in
more ways than Bret Harte had in
mind, and in one particular, that of
thrift, it would be well if the white
man was peculiar also.

of all was limited to that of the slow

The two had gone but short dis

fell upon their ears. The ape-man
paid no attention to the familiar
sounds until the crack OF q rifle came
family from the same direction, and
when this was followed by the shrill
neighing of horses and an almost con-
tinuous fusillade of shots intermingled
with increased and savage roaring OF

amidst the darkening shadows of the
falling night hairy, manlike creature
swung swiftly southwark upon some

She did not see the black face be-

refining in in surprise, and as she saw
the black face of Abdul Mourak, the
Abyssinian, she shrank back in ter

now he called to her to descend. She
realized that resistance was futile,
