SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1899. were the City of Dublin Steam-packCompany; Dublin, Wicklow and Wexford Railway Company; et A party of English noblemen, including officers of State and members of Parliament, some accompanied by their wives, made a g in Ireland. tour of They have heretofore spent their time and money "doing" the continent every summer. A movement was started some time ago by Mr. F. C. Crossley, of Dublin, to turn the tide of tourists to Ireland, in which he was ably seconded by prominent Irishmen. Strange as it may seem, they encountered great difficulty owing to the false notions and prejudices regarding Ireland and the Irish people. The beauties of Ireland all had heard of and longed to see, but they regatd ed the country as lacking facilities for travel and accommodations for travelers; that the roads, railways bridges, water craft, hotels, sta tions, etc., were primitive and crude that the people were ignorant, rude, uncouth and unfriendly, if not real ly antagonistic to strangers, es pecially from England. This diffi culty only made the promoters the more determined to disprove these allegations by actual observation by an exclusively English party of tourists, and after months of urgent solicitation they succeeded in organ izing such a party iu London, and on May 20 they landed in Dublin, where they were graciously received aud most hospitably entertained. There the party divided, one takiug the Southern route, the other the West. The members of the Western section were Lord Coleridge, Mr. Bram Hillyard (Westminster Gazette), Mr. and Mrs. R. Manders, Mr. and Mrs. Charles McArthur, Mr. D. V. Pirie and Hon. Miss Forbes Sem-pilLord Rosmead and Lady Mr. James Round and Miss Round, Mr. Charles G. Shaw, Mr. Ernest Spencer and Mrs. Spencer. The Midland Great Western Railway Company made admirable arrangements for the comfort of this party, and placed special saloon cars at their disposal. The Directors also entertained the party at dinner on the 23rd ult. The tour sight-seeinl, Ros-mead, embraced visits to Galway, Cashel, Ballyuahinch, Falls of Loughna-fooeWestport, Mallaranuy and Achill.

Cleeve, High Sheriff of Limerick, also gave a banquet in their honor. Everywhere the facilities for trav el, accommodations for their comfort aud pleasure, their reception and treatment by the people, have undeceived them. They were out spoken through the press in their admiration of the country and the people, and astonished at the won derful progress nude in the build ing aud opening up of railways, steamboat lines and carriageways; the thriving cities and towns; the character, intelligence and cleanliness of the people all so different from what they had believed of Ireland and the Irish. Commenting on the result of the tour, the Irish Independent says: "What Ireland suffers most from js not any want of knowledge of its scenic attractions, but from a belief which still exists abroad that traveling facilities and hotel accommodation are not up to the mark. Whatever time this impression was justified, it certainly is so no longer. The visitors who come among us will find ample proof of this everywhere. The railway accommodation as regards speed, comfort and cheapness can compare favorably with that obtainable across the channel. During the past decade great improvements have taken place. These improvements are made all the more complete through the opening up of steamship aud car routes through some of the most picturesque parts of Ireland. What is true of the railways is also true of the hotels. On all the estab lished routes the hotels are quite and for the accommodation given the charge can not be regarded as anything else than rea sonable and moderate. When these facts respecting the traveling facilities and the hotel accommodations are better known abroad a very im portant development of the tourist traffic will result. The present visit from England will help materially to dispel the false notions which still exist among strangers. Another effect it will have is that the trip in one of the splendid new boats of the Dublin Steam Packet Company will show that the Irish sea can no longer be regarded in the light of a hindrance to the tourist traffic of Ireland." e, The Irish people seem determined to force their leaders to unite or give way to others who will. A resolution started from Limerick, calling on Dillon, Redmond and Healy to arrange for a conference and union of parties on behalf of Irish nationality or retire from leadership, is being adopted by County and District Couucils. The promptness with which it is adopted when presented leaves no room for doubt as to the motive and earnestness, members of all parties, even the Unionists, favoring it. In addition to this, town and district meetings are adopting and forwarding petitions of similar nature to their ParThe liamentary representatives. new regime seems to have opened the way for the Irish people to make their wishes known to their representatives, and they are going about it in a peaceful, orderly, but emphatic way that can not be misunderstood. If the present leaders can not or will not find a way to lead a united Ireland, it is clear that the people mean to find the Success to wav and the leaders. them. Gov. W. B.

Besides the interesting programme rendered, Loretto had as her Papal guests Mousignor Martinelli, Delegate to the United States, and Rev. J. J. Dougherty, rector of .the Mission of the Immaculate Virgin, of New York. Father Dougherty is the successor of Father Drumgool, who founded the Mission of the Immaculate Virgin, a home for destitute and homeless boys, and over 1,700 children are now inmates of the home. But doubtless that of most interest, to Loretto, at least, was the celebration of the diamond jubilee of Sister Generosa. In 1824, eleven years after the foundation of Loretto, Sister Generosa was received into the oryears she has der and for seventy-fiv- e labored zealously and faithfully for the cause to which she offered her life. She saw Loretto in its infancy, when rude log cabins stood where now magnificent structures of modern architecture rear their walls heavenward. Sister Generosa received from His Holiness, Pope Leo XIII, the Papal blessing, a privilege enjoyed by but few. She is possibly the oldest religious woman today in the United States. Each number on the programme was carefully selected, correctly rendered and the young ladies merit especial praise for their successful and conscientious work. "The Old Order Changeth," an orig inal drama, composed by the Sisters, was conceded by the clergy and many others to be in advance of any previous efforts in that line in Kentucky. "William Tell," violin solo, by Miss Hollenkanip, of Louisville, was a gem warmly applauded and sincerely appreci. ated. To Sister M. Vitalis belongs much of the honor of the excellent programme. The Scarf Drill, iu which sixteen girls participated, showed that 110 pains had been spared in instructing them to acquire grace and symmetry of movement. There were three graduates, one of whom Miss Mary Head, is from New Hope, Nelson county. The closing address was delivered by Father Dougherty, after which came Sister Generosa's diamond jubilee. St. Mary's College cornet band dis coursed excellent music at different times during the day. Besides Monsignor Martinelli, Rev. Dougherty and the Right Rev. Abbott of Gethseniani, numerous other priests of the diocese were present. ST. AUOUSTIN'S.

Edward Vernia, son of Felix Vernia, died at his home on Ekin avenue, above Thirteenth street, New Albany, from injuries suffered by being run over by a Motion train. One arm and leg were severed by the wheels. Vernia was employed as a section hand on the Motion, and had started for work. When he reached the Motion tracks a switch engine and two freight cars passed, and he attempted to board one of the cars and ride to his work. His foot missed the step and he was thrown tinder the trucks. The wheels passed over the arm and leg and the body was rolled along the track and terribly mangled. He was removed. to his home on Ekiu avenue, where the Rev. Father Kelly, rector of Holy Trinity Catholic church, administered the last sacrament a few minutes before he died. Vernia was twenty three years old, and leaves a wife to whom he was married about a year ago. Vernia's'father, Felix Vernia, is the florist, who resides on the Green Valley road. -- Business, Politics, Society and Death Bustle, Hustle, Pleasure and Sorrow. Special Letter to the Kentucky American.! Irish w Lexington, Ky., June 10. Every thing in the "Blue Grass capital" is on a boom. Business of every kind is improv ing, new manufactories are being estab lished and many capitalists visit the gay old city every day seeking a suitable location for manufacturing plants, and all have expressed themselves as greatly pleased with Lexington. The town has gone wild over politics, and on every street corner, in every hotel lobby and in many business houses nothing is discussed except the Gubernatorial s of the voters race. While fully of Lexington and Fayette county favor Senator Goebel for Governor, for harmony's sake and the ultimate success of the party in November, an agreement was reached last Saturday whereby the solid vote of Fayette (twenty) is to be given to Cassidy for Superintendent of Public Instruction and six and votes to Goebel, Hardin and Stone respectively. Mayor Simrall is an ardent supporter of Gen. Hardin and during the past few weeks several competent policemen and firemen have been removed for the simple reason that they were supporters of Senator Goebel for Governor. In nearly every instance these men were Irish Americans. Everything political will undoubtedly be quite lively in Lexington Saturday, when the mass convention will be held. Miss Bessie Coleman, of Frankfort, is the pleasant guest of Miss Bessie Flynn on East Third street. Misses Sally and Lillian Showalter, of Frankfort, spent Sunday last in this city visiting friends and relatives. Mr. William Kennedy spent Sunday last in the city with relatives. Last Sunday afternoon, while the sun shone brightly and all the world seemed happy, a deep sorrow settled over a happy home when Joseph Danahy's soul winged its way heavenward, and a beautiful life that had been well spent was severed and a happy home wrapped in gloom and sorrow. Joseph Datihhy had just reached the prime of young manhood, having a loving wife and a sweet child, when a just and God called him to his reward in heaven. Mr. Danahy was a prominent and leading member of Barry Council, Y. M. I., No. 144, and was also a member of the Uniform Rank of the same council. He was associated with his brother John in the undertaking business and was prospering, The sympathy of a large circle of sorrowing friends is tendered the family in their deep bereavement. The funeral took place from St. Paul's Catholic Church Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock. May his soul rest in peace.

Pitcher Jimmy Hughes is proving the surprise of the season. The ball players arrested at Buffalo for violating the Sunday law were dismissed by a jury Monday. Sharkey must now fight or retire. Jef fries' proposition is plain, and leaves the sailor no room for dodging. Our ball team won only two games on its Eastern trip. The great expectations of its friends have vanished. Martin Julian says Fitzsimmons will challenge Jeffries to meet him in the near future in another fight for the champion ship. Jack Chapman, the old Louisville man ager, will manage llie Newarie team tor the balance of the season. He has secured a good interest in the club. A team of Irish athletes is coming to America during the summer to compete for the championships. Some of them have phenomenal records. Jim Jeffries was down to box at Tommy Ryan's benefit at Syracuse last night. Ryan's advice and training had much to do with Jim's victory over Fitzsimmons. George Dixon has been matched to meet Tommy White, of Chicago, for twenty rounds at a boxing show to be given by the Colorado Athletic Club on July 11.

Record of the Host Important of the Recent Events Culled From Exchanges. The statement recently published in Cork that Justin McCarthy had retired from Parliamentary and public life caused a sensation. The report was without foundation. Miss Martin, the famous lawn tennis player, has again won the Irish championship. Recently she won n glorious victory over Miss C. Cooper, who up to that time was the Irish and English champion. The final concert of the Dublin Catholic Commercial Club was the most successful of the series. The attendance was extremely large, there being scarce standing room in the spacious hall, and many of the artists were called before the house several times. Dr. Anthony Roche, Professor of Public Health in the Catholic University Medical School, Dublin, has been elected Vice President of the Section Sanitary Science and Preventive Medicine at the Congress of the Sanitary Institute of Great Britain, to be held in Southampton in August. At a special committee meeting of the Dublin journeymen hairdressers it was proposed and carried unanimously "That we, the members of the above union, beg to tender our heartfelt sympathy to the widow and relatives of the late John Brady, an old and esteemed member of the society and late delegate to the Trades Council." On Tuesday night a meeting of the Templemore Urban Council was held in the Town Hall, J. L. Bracken presiding, The Clerk, who refused to publish a re port of a committee appointed to audit the affairs of the town, and who reported that the old Council were indebted to the extent of fGOO. was on a unanimous vote suspended. County Court Judge Kisbey opened the business of Duudalk Quarter Sessions with only one criminal case on the list a charge of arson against Peter Sandys, a large farmer residing near Ardee, arising out of a supposed incendiary fire at Dro min. Mr. Caraher said he was directed by the Attorney General to have the case sent on to the Assizes for trial, and in the meantime to consent to the accused be ing admitted to bail. His Honor ruled accordingly. The Roscrea Guardians recently discussed the new rules issued by the Local Government Board regulating the method by which in future all outdoor relief in kind is to be distributed to persons entitled to receive same. The board was unanimously of opinion that the new arrangements were objectionable, and a resolution was adopted asking the Local Government Board to permit them to continue the granting of such relief on the old system. The attendance was fairly large on the last day at Tervoe, and on the whole the fete was very successful. In the athletic contests Leahy, of Charleville, gave an exhibition high jump, clearing six feet two incites from a bad soil. Horgan, of Banteer, made some good throws with shot, while O'Neill, of the sixteen-poun- d c Adare, covered the course in excellent time. The band of the Boys' Industrial School were present during the day. The proceeds of the fete will n be devoted to the renovation of the Catholic church. two-inilBally-brow- there that the late Parnell always stayed while in Dublin during the stormy days and years that elapsed from the time that he succeeded Isaac Butt in the leadership of the Irish Parliamentary party up to almost a week before his much to be lamented deatlf. There he met hundreds of men who were keeping the Irish flag flying in the country, and from thence was issued many a proclamation and many n manifesto. An inquest was held at Carndonagh on the body of a child named John McKm ney, who died from injuries received during the torchlight procession in honor of the Chief Secretary's visit. It ap peared one of the barrels overturned and the burning tar poured over the child, Immediately after the inquest the Cor oner called on the parents of deceased, as well as another child burned, and said that Mr. Balfour had thoughtfully and generously given him a sum of money for them, which he gave them. The parents expressed their gratitude to Mr. Balfour and Lady Betty, not only for the gift, but also for their kindness in other ways. At the usual fortnightly public meet ing 01 me jrisn industrial League in Dublin E. Cunningham presided. An interesting discussion ensued on a letter from P. Hunt, of Galway, with reference to Irish-mad- e provision dealers' jackets and aprons, and the following resolution was passed unanimously: "That this league, recognizing the dearth of employment in this city and country for its workers, particularly bootmaking, urges upon the Irish members of Parliament the desirability of procuring the making of the boots for the,Insh militia in Ire land, a matter as it involves the sending to England every year of something like 75,000 that is of particular importance to the industries of Ireland." On Tuesday afternoon Edward Ash, Norton Terrace, Belmont avenue, Donny- brook, retired dentist, aged sixty-on- e years, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a penknife in his bedroom His wife left him between 11 and 12 o'clock to go into the city, and his niece, Miss Clare, remained with him and was speaking to him about 12:30. Ten minutes later Mrs. Ash returned and found the bedroom door locked. Thomas Hall, a plumber of Cumberland street, who was working in the house at the time, entered the bedroom through the window and found Mr. Ash lying quite dead on his face, with his throat cut. Deceased, who had been under the care of Dr. Doyle for some years past for kid ney and heart desease, was subject to some mental derangement. The English members of Parliament who have been making a tour of Ireland were more favorably impressed at every point, say our Irish exchanges. The Conneniara marble quarries, about two miles from Recess, were visited by'some members of the party, who were greatly interested in the beautiful marble which is there obtained, says one correspondent, Much regret was, however, expressed that the marble is not worked and finished on the spot, but is sent away in the rough state, principally to America, so that the beuefit which was derived from this in dustry by the Conneniara people is very small as compared with what it should be. Jay Gould is stated to have erected a beautiful chimney-piec- e of Conneniara marble nt n cost of $50,000, but what a very small amount of this sum must have reached the quarries.
