CARRICKSHOCK
rigUL i»u, by vv. <j. i
Uy a long skip, partly by train, part-
ly by cycle, I found myaelf at Plltown,
near the Kllkenny-Waterford border
line; and remembering that this was
not far from Carrlckshock. I made en-
quiries and learned that I had but
seven miles of hill to ride when the
town of the Battle of the Tithes would
greet me. It was a sultry afternoon
and the road for the first few miles
had a surface which, among all the
IrUh road surfaces In Ireland, was
distinguished for Its vileness. "They
call It ‘The Main Itoad,' " said to me
a poor, ragged fellow who was alter-
nately coaxing and coercing a heavily
laden mule. "They call It ‘The Main
Road,' an' begorra, 'tls the malnest
road I've ever met with In all me born
days.” And he spoke truly, I am sure.
iBut when, after a few miles, I left
this "Main Road,” and got upon a by-
road whlcn was to take me over the
hills, I felt translated to Heaven. Kven
If this by-road shot up hill and down
dale with frequent and sudden im-
pulse, the surface was smooth, and It
•was for the first few miles, at least
heavily shaded by wood and hedge
'Which made It fresh and grateful. A
jwlde, cool, green marge extended
along either side, and a wild and lux-
uriant natural growth of fern, and
briar, and holly, and thorn, and birch
lined the way on both Bides. The whin,
too, golden flowered, asserted Itself,
and pleased the eye at frequent Inter-
vals; and occasionally I got glimpses
of a whole hillside whose fences of
flowered furze were like great, long,
torch llko processions. At one part of
my journey, almost for two miles, I
hail to walk, bo steep was the hill; but
this walk wus far from wearisome, so
pleasant was the luxuriant growth
that accompunled me by the road-
sides, and so variegated, and so grand
and extensive the view of country
that lay around me In every direction.
After I topped a great plateau, I
found by the wayside a lonely forge
where a blacksmith wsb making mer-
ry music on his anvil. When he came
to hlB forge door he gave me direc-
tions how to reach Carrlckahock. I
looked afar with him, and saw that
from his picturesque situation he had
a view of half Kilkenny. Without
doubt, In this forge was forged long
ago many a good, trusty pike-head,
and to this forge from the cottages
that dotted the great miles and miles
of country now visible, many an ar-
dent eye, I felt sure, had, In certain
days of yore, frequently and longing-
ly turned. The blacksmith, unlike the
Ideal that one has in one'B eye, was
neither tall nor stout. He wan small
and thin, but lithe and wiry, and hard,
I knew, as nails. Potential Ares slum-
bered in this quiet little man's eye,
anil I felt that If opportunity camo
and his country called, ho would, with
a heart and a half, do his country's
work as stoutly and bravely and well
as the biggest, stoutest blacksmith
that ever Ireland has good reason to
be proud of. When I asked for Car-
rlckshock he gave me a sidelong
glance which showed that ho knew tho
wherefore of my seeking that place.
"Yes,” I said In reply to no verbal
iquestlon asked by him—In reply mere-
ly to his glance—"Yes that’s why I
want to see Carrlckshock." He mere-
ly nodded his head In approval; and
then, with much cure und kindness,
gave minute directions.
Kvoryone who knows Irish history
knows that tho Tithe war which shook
Ireland about ami after Emancipation
year was decisively settled and ended
on the day of Carrlckshock. To the
ministers of the Established church
nil Ireland of every creed had to give
yenrly u tithe of their land's yield. As
the posts of many thousands of these
clergymen were mere sinecures, their
churches unattended by any save
themselves, their families and the sex-
ton, and since five-sixths of the peo-
ple of Ireland belonged to another
church, the Irish nation In the end of
tho “twenties" and beginning of the
■‘thirties’’ of the last century came to
the tardy conclusion that It was mon-
strous to pay tithes to these gentle-
men, and a great agitation against It
swept the land. O’Connell, ever a man
of peace and opposed to bloodshed,
who, after winning Catholic emanci-
pation In '29. believed the English par-
liament was a generous assembly that
would readily grant Justice whenever
a wrong was inado clear to them,
begged his people, who were almost
on the point of rising up against tithes
In ’31, to observe the law and shed no
blood, and that he would get the great
anil generous British parliament to re-
dress their grievance and right their
great wrong,
The people, obedient to their hon-
ored leader, refrained from doing any-
thing "unlawful," and when parlia-
ment assembled lo the autumn of that
year, O'Connell made one of his pow-
erful rpeeches, showing the Iniquity
of the tithe system and demanding re-
dress. He tried to Impress upon the
government, too, the fact that Ireland
waa dangerously near the shedding of
blood, and that In consequence an or-
der should be sent out to etay the col-
lection of that harvest’s tithes until a
royal commission, which had been ap-
pointed, should have reported upon
the tithe system. The reply of the
government to O’Connell's speech was
an Immedlata order to the authorities
In Ireland to proceed with the collec-
tion of tithes!
At Carrlckahock, In South Kilkenny,
the tithe proctor, guarded by an army
of policemen, set out on a bright, har-
vest morning to aerve notices. Imme-
diately the little army with the tithe
proctor was under way, the big chapel
bell In Knocktopher began booming;
shortly after, that of flugglnstown an-
swered It, and then other chapel bells
took up the strain. The people, snatctv
Ing up whatever weapons came near-
est to their hand, scythe, pitchfork,
flail and caman, hurried forth, and
converged upon Carrlckshock. The
tithe proctor had just served one no-
tice In Kllcasey, close by, when, the
crowd assuming great proportions, the
officer In charge of the police ordered
his party to turn and proceed home-
ward. As the little army entered a
boreen (lane) In Carrlckshock on Its
return Journey, tho people closed
around, and a man named Power,
leaping Into the boreen, caught tho
officer's horse and demanded that the
tithe proctor be handed over to the
people. Tho officer—certainly a brave
man—drew his pistol and Instantly
shot Power dead. Then tho police, see-
ing themselves surrounded by an ex-
cited crowd, lost their heads and be-
gan firing In every direction. Tho
people, Instead of being deterrod by
this, furiously leaped upon the police
and tho melee begun. In very short
time the little army was completely
routed, leaving Its dead and wounded
In the boreen.
Eleven dead policemen were carried
to the house of u neighboring Protes-
tant —- Tennyson of Kockhall—and
there wuked and from there burled.
At least three of the people, Power,
Trucey and Whelan, were killed. Their
Itodies were carefully concealed from
the authorities, and they were burled
at dea<! of night. The wounded either
fled the country, or lurked from house
to house, or from ditch to illtcli under
cover of night, for months after. Regi-
ments of police and soldiers were
poured Into the locality, a reign of
terror Instituted, great bands of peo-
ple seized and hurried to prison—all
of them having their freedom won for
them by O'Connell at tho Kilkenny as-
sizes six months later.
By that coup on that harvest morn-
ing In the little boreen at Carrlck-
shock, this little band of earnest men,
suddenly summoned, bail done for Ire-
land what tho great Imperial parlia-
ment scornfully refused to do. The
process served by the proctor at Kll-
caBoy that harvest morning was the
last tithe process ever served In Ire-
land. And for this, nil honor to Pow-
er, Tracey, Whelan, and their brothers
at Carrlckshock.
When I reached tile country village
of Hngglnstown where 1 found tho us-
ual couple of policemen supporting
with their shoulders the usual police
barrack, I sought for particular direc-
tions with regard to the tmttleplace,
which I knew was close by. 1 spared
the policemen the retlned cruelty of
asking them to show me to tho place,
but of two young men whom I found
chatting at the mouth of a by-road I
enquired. Theso young men were, I
saw at a glance, direct opposites In
character. One, who had a bit of a
slouch, cnrrled Ills hands In pocket,
had a hound nt Ills heels, and was, I
saw, an Imaginative Individual, and a
humorist, too, with an Irresistibly mer-
ry twinkle under tho lazy lids of his
half shut gray eyes. The other was a
pure materialist.
"Are you for flghtln'?" said the hu-
morist, when 1 enquired for tho battle
ground.
"I'm for flghtln',” said I, "If there's
any flghtln' to do.”
"Troth, an' you’re the lad we want,"
said the humorist, "for we're blue-
moulded for want of a baitin', here-
abouts."
When they hail told me tho exact
way to Carrlckshock, I suggested to
them tliHt they should come nlong and
show mo the spot, and tell me all
about It. "Come," said the humorist
to the materialist, "Coine along! —
Faith,” he added, turning to me, "we'll
go with you with a heart and a half,
If It's only to rob ye."
Pale faced and merry eyed, he
slouched forward with hound limping
close at his heels, and he cracking
jokes as he went, and putting to me
bantering questions which I did my
best to reply to in kind.
"My grandfather killed three there,"
he said with a sudden gravity that
might have meant seriousness and
truthfulness, or might have meant the
climax of Ids humor 1 could not say
which. “You will see there,” he snld,
"the blood-stains on the ling that nev-
er could lie washed out."
"Blatherskite!" snapped the meter
lallst, with e curl of hla Up and e
shrug of hit shoulders.
" 'Tlsn't any blatherskite," said the
humorist, turning ou hla fellow.
"Didn't I see It with me own eyes?—
an' you did too."
"Blatherskite!" repeated the mater-
ialist with deeper scorn.
"Wlsha, but you're contrairy!" said
the humorist. Then turning to me,
"He'll believe nothing, he'll not.”
He scraped the moss from a flag on
the battle ground to point out the dark
spots that were, he asserted, the
bloodstains; and a beggarman, who
came up while we stood there,
vouched for the truth of this. The ma-
terialist, disgustedly turning hla back
upon us all, said, "That's all dom non-
sense."
"There ye are,” said the humorist
resignedly; "sure, I tould you he'd be-
lieve nothing."
The men who looked their last upon
the world on that bright, harvest
morning from the boreen In Carrlck-
shock, looked far over a pleasant coun-
try, for Carrlckshock Is on the slope
of the hill, and away below is a vast
plain, and beyond the plain little hills
rise to t(ie horizon, all the area within
being thickly dotted with farmhouses.
The roofs, and the smoke, of some Vil-
lages, too, being within the range of
vision.
“That’s all now,” said the material-
ist interrupting me, as, looking afar
off, I meditated, “That's all you've to
see."
"Wlsha," said his companion sympa-
thetically, "hasn't he seen plenty?"
"What?" said the materialist, scowl-
ing severely on him, "Just a bare bit
of boaheen. What’s In that?"
I said; "I am pleased to have seen
It.”
"Troth, you’re alsy plaiaed," said
the materialist—"A small bosheon
with two stone ditches ou both sides
of It!" And then ho shook hla head
sadly for me.
I smiled at tho materialist’s concern
for my supposed disappointment, and
the humorist laughed. As both of
them had been very kind and had
walked a good distance with me and
given me a groat deal of Information,
I handed the materialist a shilling,
telling him to get tobacco for the two
of them with It. The humorist, turn-
ing, looked at me lazily from under his
long lashes, and added, Insinuatingly,
“ An what about wettln' our throats?”
1, thereupon, launched out Into a lec-
ture upon drink being Ireland's ruin,
and I quoted for him what I consid-
ered some startling facts and figures,
and wound up by saying that 1 would
a thousand times rather sling my
money from me than give It to any-
one for drink.
When 1 finished, I flattered myself
that 1 had done a good afternoon’s
work by that lecturj alone, and Its ef-
fect upon this fellow. There was a
moment's silence while I studied Its
effect on my victim, and while he
waited politely to make sure that I
was completely through. Then diving
his hands deeper Into his pockets he
said:
“Wlsha. an’ you're the quarest lad
ever camo Into this bosbeen—who’d
give money for tobacky, an’ wouldn’t
give a ha'penny for a dhrlnk to raise
a man's heart!"
As I would mount my bicycle to ride
away after thanking my companions
and bidding them good day, the ma-
terialist, who had been silent, again
expressed his sympathy. “Wlsha, an'
'twas little you had to see In a bit of
a bosheen! An’ maybe come far to
see, too?"
I said: "I camo nearly 3,000 miles
to see It—and would gladly do so
again.”
"Boulil fella," said the humorist.
But the materialist, as I looked
back, waa gravely slinking his head.
SUDDENLY DAWNED ON HIM
An American and a Scotsman were
on a walking tour. One afternoon
they came upon a rural, finger-post
hearing the following words beneath
the customary directions:
"Those who can't read can Inquire
the way of the blacksmith nt the cor-
ner."
This tntliunllon nppealed strongly to
the American's Rense of humor, and
he chuckled delightedly.
"What are you laughing at?" de-
manded his companion.
So the American drew attention to
the notice. The Scotsmnn read It
gravely two or three times, and final-
ly observed that It was very thought-
ful of some one to have put It there,
but he quite failed to see why It
should call for nny great outburst of
merriment.
Ills friend laughed all the more at
this, and the Scot, feeling that he had
missed something, became engrossed
In thought.
Soon afterward the travelers
reached their destination, and, having
supped, retired to their respective
rooms. But somewhere In the small
hours of the morning the American
wns aroused from his slumbers by a
loud knock at his door, and In walked
the grave-faced Scot.
"I fool obleeged to toll you that I
can see thnt Juki1 the noo! Why, o'
course, the blacksmith might be oot!"
SPEED OF THE WILD DUCK
In Dead Calm the Bird Will Average
Fifty Eight Miles an Hour-
Flight of Geese.
My observations were made with
mallard and widgeon JuHt off the sen,
and coming In at the evening flight,
sm h birds not having got fully under
way, having tra\«4«'d only about two
miles or u mile and a half, according
t„ the state of the tide. The speed
varied from 10!* miles un hour In
the teeth of a hurricane to 190 miles
an hour with half n gale driving them
forward, their speed with n full gale
being below this.
In a dead calm they averaged 58
miles un hour, but us 1 have men-
tioned they wore not traveling at top
speed. Other species of duck fly much
faster than this, the speed of a mer-
ganser going down wind being some-
thing terrific, and If I mentioned my
rough calculations made as to his
speed with a stiff breeze behind him
no ore would believe roe, so 1 will re-
.’i .1 ........ so
One day In March, when a fresh
breeze wus blowing down the Hoy
sound In Orkney, mergansers were
lost sight of In five seconds after
passing the point upon which 1 was
sitting. They are without doubt the
fastest of our web footed birds, al-
though other of the diving ducks,
such as the goldeneye, fly at an enor-
mous velocity
The speed nt which birds are trav-
eling Is very deceptive, for Instance
swallows appear to be going very fast
but rarely attain n speed of 3d miles
an hour, whereas wild geese appear
to he traveling very slowly when
seen nt a distance, but see them pass-
ing over you at dawn about fifty
yards overhead and their wings look
like flywheels, giving the birds the
appearance of huge bees In the hnlf
light, so fast are their wings vibrating.

Problem of Eating.
One who possesses n healthy, nor-
mal appetite and a good digestion Is
apt to take a different view of the
eating problem from that of the man
who is not living under such desir-
able conditions. He Is fortunate who
hns an appetite for breakfast and Is
doubly fortunate If he hns n breakfast
for bis appetite. Conceding that many
persons eat too much. It must he re-
membered thnt many cat too little
The world Is full of well-meaning
Individuals who spend a considerable
portion ol their time In telling their
fellow men what to oat and how to
eat It. These persons forget that eat-
ing Is largely a matter of likes and
dislikes aild thnt a regimen Hint la ac-
ceptable to one pnlntc is entirely dis-
tasteful to another. The old snylng
has It that what Is one mail's meat Is
another man's poison The physician
may prescribe n diet for his patient
because he knows from experience
what Is best adapted to his particu-
lar rase. The laymnn who undertakes
to lay down n universal bill of fare
will have his trouble for his pains.—

Eor more than SO years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, ulceration, local weak-

Wheeler, who has Just returned from
a six months’ stay at the University
of Berlin as Roosevelt exchange pro-
fessor, Is himself a graduate of the
University of Heidelberg, where be
took his degree of doctor of philoso-
phy In 1885. Previously to his cell to
the presidency of the University of
California, a post be has occupied
since 1889, he was professor of com-
parative philology and Greek at Cor-

“The socialists as a political party
are gaining strength in Germany.
They gained a little after the fall of
the late Von Buelow ministry, and
Dr. Benjamin Ide Wheeler.
they have won considerable strength
from the very recent suppression of
the populace In the agitation for the
reform of the suffrage basis In Prus-
sia,” said Dr. Wheeler.
“The socialists are much less the-
oretical than they used to be, and are
therefore milder. You could more ;
appropriately call them the progres-
sive or radical political party of Ger-
many—say the party to the left. Since
they have become more practical they
have drawn over to them many per-
sons who, while willing to take sides
with a radical party, would not care
to be classified with the outright theo-
retical socialistic movement. To-day
the socialist party In Germany Is do-
ing things, and It Is temporarily sat-
isfied with many reforms which would
never be accepted by the theoretical
■octallsts of other days.
"Why, Germans cannot understand
what they are talking about in Eng-
land,” he said. "There Is no thought
of war In the German mind. The
army, It Is true. Is a splendid fighting
machine, but it la a greater training
school than It Is a weapon of war.
Every German Is a trained man. An :
army may not be the best kind of a
training school, but Is better than
nothing."

THE ROAD TO POPULARITY

But It la Not Always Safe te
Truat It.
“The way to be popular baa been ex-
plained by one of the marshmallow

the idea that It la directing modern
life. "When you shake hands with
a man,” runs the recipe, "grasp the
hand as though you were glad to see
the owner, look him In the eye, and
give him a smile from your heart”
This Is a sure-enough recipe. It
has been worked by some of the great-
est frauds lu Christendom to subserve
their own ends. The man who Is
seeking popularity, posing for it,
angling for It, usually doesn't deserve
It. Keep your admiration for men
who show you their real selves, who,
when they are bothered or worried,
or mad, or glad, make It manifest by
appropriate facial expression, and
who are not constantly standing them-
selves before the mirror.

Apropos of J. Pierpont Morgan's Im-
mense resources, rs shown In his re-
cent proffer of $100,000,000 wherewith
to build more New York subways, a
broker said:
“Mr. Morgan's wealth causes him to
look at money In a large way. Once,
at the Metroplitnn club In Fifth ave-
nue, I told him of the death of a mu-
tual friend.
“ 'How much did he leave?’ Mr. Mor-
gan asked.
'* 'A matter of five or six millions, I
believe,’ said I.
“Mr. Morgan's eyebrows lifted.
'"How deceptive circumstances
sometimes are,’ he said. 'I always sup-
posed him quite comfortably off.' ”

THE Q\E REMEDY that can be de-
pended upon when there fs any derangement of the distinctly
feminine organism. It purifies, heals, soothes, builds up.
THE Q\E REMEDY which absolutely contains neither alcohol
(which to most Women Is rank poison) nor Injurious or
hahlt-formlng drugs.
THE Q\E REMEDY which Is so perfect In Its composition
and so good In Its curative effects as to warrant Its makers
In printing Its every Ingredient, as they do, on Its outside
wrapper, verifying the same under solemn oath.
It is needed when backaches make life miserable—when a sicken-
ing, dragging, bearing-down feeling makes work a weary agony—
when sick headache, nervous irritability, loss of energy and appe-
tite indicate derangement of the womanly organism. It is a purely
vegetable compound, being a glyceric extract from native medicinal
roots and can not injure in any condition of the female system.
