And now in referenco to this country, I know somewhat of it. In the an:{y days I went to California, T was a lien- tonant thon. I staid there four yoars and then returned East. Again I cameo back and that time staid five years. In these years 1 was greatly interested in the destiny of this magnificent land which you now occupy. 1t had boen the pos- seasions of France and by that govern- ment was considered worthless, T hon- estly believe that had it not been for our civil war our Congress and our poo- plo would not now be &0 great. They would have then been horrified at the idea of spending 8100,000 for build- ing n railroad. Therefore, comrades you fought to enlirge this domain and add wealth fo your national prosperity, for the result of the war stimuluted the oneies of the republic. ) One hundred millions in 1861 looked to be more than one thousand millions now. o' im- pressed was I of the fact that the coun try was open to emigration that when T got to St. Louis I advocated this strongly and then returned, I reached Fort Leay onworth and thence proceeded to Fort Laramie. We arrived at what is new Fort Saunders, came down Cherry creck trail and thence to this city. This was in 1865, when the place wasa town. There is none of the town left that I saw. I romember we crossed a rickety old bridge and hunted up the quartermaster’s quarters. A man named DeLano was tho mayor, and I remember him and his ac- complished wife. I spent four or five days with them, and I have no doubt there are many here who remember them. Cherry creck came down out of the mountains, us it does now, only you san't find it now. [Laughter.] 1t was about this time that the Indians were troublesome, and people were being killed and scalped just out here about where this hall stands, We sent four regiments in this locality. 1t was only when the railroads were finished that the Indians lost their pewer.

Mvorything was against us, but finally we caught on, and when we got a start we made that debt sick; now hear me sposk!” “‘What was your course of procodure, brother!” inquired the Brooklyn minister, rather startled by the forvent speech of his friend. “Tho firat thing wo did was to atart the Sabwath school out fishing on Sundays, and we kopt the interest down by the sale of fish until we could get a whack at the principal. Then we inspired tho gamblers of the town with an interest in thechurch, and offered them inducements to come, and they in turn taught us the methods by which they made a pre livelihood. Our brethern were porti- nacious and soon acquired an insight into the mysteries, and then wo all lay in wait for suckers and let 'em have it as soon as they struck our section of the vineyard.” “Do 1 follow you, brother?’ do- manded the Brooklyn clergyman in dis- may. “If you over get into debt again you'd better,” answered the other confidently. “It's the biggest turn in the wheel box. We raised ten thousand dollars in two months, and more than that it was the means of bringing a good many souls to graco.” “But I don’t understand.” “We simply turned the gamblets'trick against themselves. You see, when a new man comes to town the boys go for him and they fetch him sooner or later. We had our brethren out day and night and we broke up gambling in that village by monopolizing it. Our game of draw TN e wosult was a Lreat gfory, the payment o <hedebt and the garnering of souls that otherwise would have gone down to iniquity. As soon a8 we busted a man we took him in- to the church and got hiaa job, and whenever he got a little ahead “and the spirit of gaming grew upon him, we yrayed with him and then opened a little game to ch him the vanity of betting high on a low hand.” “Am I to understand th: your church by gambli astonished clergyman, “And why not” retorted his friend from the frontier. *Why ehould the | gamblers be allowed to flourish in pros. | perity and ruin the youth of our land, while the church lies groaning under a you support aimed the heavy burden !’ “Wo got money that otherwise would have gone to them, and we taught the tender-feet the way and the life, and not to depend on a pat straight when one of our deacons held thedeal. Tt was a good lesson for the young all around, and when 1 tell you that there is not a pro- fossional gambler in our country, and that our church Lins a larger membership than any on the frontier and is the richest cor- porstion in Montana Territory, and that 'm going to Europe next month, you will admit that our methods are recognized by grace as the correct proceedings.” “‘But—"" gasped the Brooklyn man, ““Would you refuso to take the monoy of a gambler if he dropped it in your contribution box! We wouldn't, and if the money is good in ne way it is good in another. Besides, we sanctified the business by making it a church aflair, and between you and me, it is & much more honest transaction than a church fair, whera you gamble for a stale cake and rag dolls, bocause in our way the stake is 1n sight, and overy man knows what he is plx.(iuu for. When you come down to tho plan our stylo is far ahead of yours, for we give the victims some show.” But the results—'" commenced the Brooklyn clergyman, “Tho results justify the whole thing,’ incorrupted the Montana man, *‘We wore threatened with foreclosure before wo commenced, and now we control our sec tion of the Territory.

Thero is no argument for emigration in this, nor in the other sad facts of Ireland that there are 4,000,000 acres of reclaim able land awaiting labor, that thousands of families arc secking for the tenancy of deserted farms, that the race is deterio rating because it is being constantly de- prived of its best elements. Some of Dr. Hart's figures are illuminating. He cites one parish of 9,636 persons whose AHRYAL VAlaNtion 1 6 ly £20,000, though ‘When You are in Trouble, Don't be dismal! Your liver is orpid, perhaps, and you may be said ln be bilious. The way to help you out of the difficulty is totake Brown's Iron Bitters, which sets disordered livers at work in good style.

Five townlands which in- clude 4,895 acros and support 313 fami- lies are valued at only 82,330, including the howses which the tenants have them- selves built. In this parish the tenants have reclaimed from the moor every acre they eccupy, 'ivs put up every fence, made «\ ronand built their own huts, T. «s luls, hardly worth sixpence an acie u ti start are in from to seven years wade capable of sup- porting a family content with a bare sub- sistence. But when this has beenbreught about, Dr. Hart says, it has been an or- dinary practico for the landlord to coolly appraise the value which the peasant’s labor has given te the helding, and ap- propriato it to himself. Spite of con- tracts the annual rents are forced up to from $10 to §50,according to the tenant’s industry. It can hardly be wondered at in the light of snch facts that land is al- lowed to run to waste, that povertyshould be the common lot or even that agrarian orime should bo prevalent, Michael Davitt in quoting Dr. Hart's report in a letter to the Cincinnati Com- morcial Gazetto states with a pardonable exuberance of spirits that a much better feeling as regards Ircland has lately beeis shown by the English peoplo. The “contract”’ theory as a justification of rackront is well nigh an “exploded doc- trine, and happily for the cause of in- dustry moral considerations are being given a more important place in social politics. It ought to be understood that the Irish tenants do not seek to evade their contracts; what they are most anxious to do is to have their contracts respected and the landlords prevented from demanding increased rents in violation of the contracts. Mr. Gladstono has carried an act through the House of Parlinment reaching this matter and providing that the tonants shall not be made to pay for the improvements they thomselves have made. The House of Lords, however, has defeated the meas- ure, aud deolared that the improvements upon a farm become the property of the landlord after & few years. because the tenant’s enjoyment_of the improvements he h: ade is in itself a compensation The landlords are now making their fight about this point; but Mr. Davitt thinks this is about the last stand they can take *‘hefpre jthe whole system is compelled to surrender to thé spirit of progress and to jusice.” This is a plea which 1nust ¢ itself, and the Irish nati we real and abundant reason for satisfaction and congratulation, not enly in the improved condition, but the brightening prospects of Ireland. But Davitt gives all the credit’ of this change to Parnell, as Parnell t i himself. Ireland ha to Gladstone as she ha cherish the remembranc But nowhere do either Davitt or Parnell ive any credit to the English statesman. Mr. Parnell is represented as having re- turned to Ireland with three bills in his pocket as trophies of his work in Lon- don since spring—the fisheries, the labor- ers’ dwellings and the tramway bills. The first provides for the building of piers and harbors on the stormy west coast of Ireland; the second confers com- pulsory powers upon local boards of guardians, enabling them to build ~ hetter houses for the farm laborers and to provide half acre garden plots to each dwel while the third has a far wider scope in that it recognizes the principle for which the Land League contended,and provides for the building of shore railway lines,and empowers public companies to draw from the treasury for the transferal of families from poor to better sections of the coun- try. ~ The Nationalists may justly con- gratulate themselves upon the share they have had in bringing about these and other benificent measures, but they are not Mr, Parnell's trophies, nor the Land League's exclusively, are government measures and it is the sheerest ingratitude to deprive Mr. Gladstone of his share in the ureat work, The Irish agitation has wade it pessible for Gladstone to bring about these results by impressing English opin- ion, and he has done it in the face of stroug _opposition oven in his own party. The Irish people may rightly rejoice, but they should not in their prejudice over- look the fact which history must record that Gladstone has done more for Ire- land than any one man has ever before accomplished. | —— “That whiter skin of hers Aud swooth as monumental alabaster,” Was all acquired by usiug Pozzoni's Medicated complexion Powder. — 1 Snow Taking Time by the Forelock, Brooklyn Fagle “I want to put a death notice i paper, but T want to leave the date of death blank.

A GREAT CANNON, TES) First Regular Expe nent with the Multicharge Gun, New York, Septembor 20.—A stout, elderly wan, with long iron-gray board and blue glasses, stood on the saud mear the old fort at Sandy Hook yesterday morning directing a gang of mon who were operating an odd-looking big gun, mounted upon a red carriage. Four crauks, a triflo larger than thoso of an or- dinary hand-organ, projected above the gun, and four large protuberances like mammoth iron kettles were visible be- neath it. The man was Mr. J. R. Haa- kell and his weapon the multicharge gun, ““You are just in time to sce us load fire,"” he said to a reporter. *‘We are to day beginning to make experiments to learn how fast a shot of given weight will be carriod by & given charge, and how much pressure there will beupon th sides of the Now watch.” First the } and the shot inserted. The projectile (weighing 110 pounds) was cylinder-coni cal in shape and made of iron and copper, 1gs, to fit the bore tightly. A bag ng fourteen pounds of powder, so that the grains felt like chestnut coal, was used, and between the bag and the ball ‘was placed large thick wad which looked like large round ginger- snaps glued together and copper-fast- ened. By turning tfle cranks thick lids were unscrewed, revealing holes leading to the kettles aforesaid, which are called ‘*pock- ets.” By means of long funnels powder was pourred into two of the pockets. Then the lids were screwed on and Cap- tain Starring of the ordinance Depart- ment, U, 8. A, cried back!” PROOF. IN THE LO. Soldiers and civilians hurried to the rear | and flozked into an unpretentious subter- | ranean structure with a gravel roof called a bomb-proof. Captain Starring opened a little box on the wall and pressed an electric button, There was a dull heavy report, followad by a long, shriil wail like that of some creature in distress. It was loud and ¢ t first, but dicd grad- ually away. ‘‘She’s busted!” cried one of the work- men. “‘Oh, no, said a veteran of the war, “‘that’s only the sound of aring of smoke, carried along by the wind-" The projectile was carried at the rate of 1,668 feet for the first secend. Four- teen pounds of powder were in the breech and eighteen 1n each of the first two The pressure upon the breech 20,600 pounds to the square inch. The target, which was about 800 yards from the gun, consisted of a board fence backed by a bank of sand 26 feet thick. The heat of the shells hardens the sand 8o that u pick-ax is necessary - in digging into it. RING THE FORC Betwoen the target and the gun are two frames, 100 fect apart, with clectric wires strung upon them. 1In its flight ths projectile cuts the wires which communi- cato with the Le Bouleug cronograph, an ingenious instrument for mensuring tho velocity. Later in the day, witha total charge of six and one-sixth pounds of powder, the initial velocity of the shot was 1,673 feet. Little copper cylinder wero placed at the breech, the pockets and the muzzle in apertures made for them for registering the pressure of the gas. Before the of each cylinder is measured with an in- strumont which will record 1-100 of an inch By another instrument the forco voquired - fo compress the cylinder, say 1-1000 of an inch’ is ained.
