Irish Peacemaker

the E+2Yth 4
Irish Peacemaker
Credit for initiating the negotiations for
peace between the Irish republican leaders
given by the majority of Irishmen to A. w.
Cope. Mr.. Cope is assistant under secretary
and clerk of the Privy Council in the offfse
of the Chief Secretary for Ireland in Dublin
Castle. He came here from the English Gus
toms service.
1t is not often that an Irish Nationalist or
republican can be found who will trust an
English official, but Mr.. Cope is the excep-
ton. The republicans trust him, as can be
seen by the way they dealt with him in car
rying out the terms .f the truce, while the
Northumberland there are still many OF
these, despite the elimination of their party
by Sim Fein-looked upon him as the de-
liverer of Ireland
Incidentally, Mr.. Cope's popularity IN 1re-
land just now has contributed to the circu-
lation of strong tip that horse named
Cope after him is likely to win the English
Derby in 1922: Many Irishmen are prepar-
ing to put their money on the yearling,
which is owned by Martin Fitzgerald, propri-
etor of 1.-THE Freeman's Journal and we'll
known figure in the business and sporting
world. 1rishmen seem to put quite as much
faith in the name of Cope as in the horse
itself
Another Plot
h According to the "Boersen Zeitung." which
asserts that it's information comes from au-
thoritative private sources, there is a wide.
spread movement for the union of Tyrol with
Bavaria. 1t is being fostered through or
carnations with headquarters in Munich,
Budapest and Vienna, and large supplies of
rifles and ammunition have been smuggIed
over the Bavarian border to arm German
sympathiZers in Tyrol.
The "Vorwaerta," the Socialist organ saws
1t learns from Munich that secret organize
lions are working through regular couriers
between Munich, Vienna and budapest, and
that they have recruiting stations in Inns
Druck and Rosenheim. The informants OF
the newspapers assert that the ultimate aim
OF the movement is the establishment of a
Catholic kingdom of Bavaria and Hungaria,
with Tyrol as the first part of Austria to be
embraced Later Austria will be included
in it.
Prince Sixtus of Bourbon de Parma. a
brother of the former Austrian Emperor, is
sojourning at Steinamanger and is said to
be playing part in that alleged movement.

are Moderate Liberal, as represented by the
Asquith element of the party, is to be trans

and appearance will be somewhat like "The
Times, and the price will be twopenoe H.

1t is also announced that ''the experiment

Marshall's Job
Thomas Riley Marshall, formerly vice
president of the United States, encountered
Calvin Coolidge, who has Marshall's o!d job,
at the White House recently. Mr.. Marshall
was in town on personal visit and to es-
tablish contact with friends on the hill and
about town.
There's no use in my asking YOU how
you are getting along said Mr. Marshall to
the vice president ''You know your Job by
this time and 1 hear you getting along
nicely"
The vice president and his predecessor
then posed for photographs Mr.. Marshall
called on the president and before leaving
the White House voiced his opinions on
things in general to the newspaper men.
Looking for job?" he repeated, in an
swer to question. II should say not. I'm
no lame duck. I have supreme contempt
for man who lies around like dead cock
in pit waiting for the man who knocked
him out to inject new life into him"
The Indianian admitted that he was still
hunting for good scent cigar, which he
predicted some time ago would serve as q
panacea for all evils.
"I've>been out getting off some old stuff
for new money" he volunteered, in answer
to a question as to what he had been doing
recently. The former vice president prob
ably referred to his lecture tour.
F1ashless Powder
Flashless gunpowder, making possible
night firing without illumination, one Of the
recent developments of the army ordnance
corps, was demonstrated last week at the
third annual meeting Of the Army Ordnance
association at the Aberdeen proving ground,
Washington.
Since the invention and use of smokeless
powder, which eliminated the locating OF
guns in daylight, ordnance experts have been
working to prevent similar sporting" at
night. This has now been accomplished.
Night firings with guns as large as five
inches, in which the muzzle was barely Wis.,
ible to observers fifty feet away, have re-
Gently been conducted with no more than a
momentarily dull red glow, and no illumina-
tion whatever.
This has been accomplished by introduce
ing substances into the powder which, when
the gun Is fired, are volatilized, diluting and
cooling the hot, inflammable gases. Ordina-
rily these gases burst into brilliant flame
when they meet in the air, Salt and chlo-
ride Of potash, 1t Is said, are two substances
used to eliminate the flash. It also has been
demonstrated that the reDort ia annreciah1v
