Bruce s Pure Food Store PHONE 66 Mention The Chronicle When Writing Advertisers backvilie Streot, Dublin. IT HAS been said fhat i>ul>lln has more tho character of a conti nental than tin ttngllsh cli.v; this ^ Is true In a way. bur It Is not tho first thing Jhat striken the visitor from across tho Irish sou. The most striking thln^ about Dublin Is that Its architecture bears traces of being all of one time, says a writer In the Chris tian Science Journal. To us who nre used to the extraordinary hotchpotch of London, deriving Its characteris tics. of brick and stone from .every conceivable century, there Is something peculiarly attractive about the street upon Street of square Georgian houses. London always seems to be In a state Of violent reaction against . everything which Is called "eighteenth century," <p that those parts of London which ttgst resemble Dublin seem mo^t for eign f o por <wc?ptton of Londotr it self. Perhaps It Is because It Is Georg ian that Bloomsbury attracts a par ticular type of Inhabitant, as often as not a cultured foreigner, not to be found In the urbanity of Mayfalr. nor In the banality of Maida Vale. And If you Imagine a city where all the streets nre like Great Orrnond Street and the squares like the Blcfoms bury squares, you have an honest con ception of Dublin. Nor does the eighteenth cenfury ap pear tri tne houses alone; there are those In Dublin who carry 011 the tra dition of old world courtliness which has long become rare enough to be re markable even In Bloomsbury i It if true thtft they are few In number even here, but they are sufficient to leave a certain fragrance of other days In drawing room and coffee house. Clad in Romance. Before getting on board the boat at Holyhead, Great Britain will leave memories of abject Anglesea In the traveler's mind, and when the waste of sea reveals ahead of him the ttrst rontours of Ireland, the mountains rise up to greet him with a very dif ferent fare from, that of the flat and cheerless little Island he has Just crossed. They any almost bla tantly green, so that he must per ~ '^unnur platitudes beneath his nreath about the "emerald fsfe." l^bllners are forever conscious of ttiose mountains near by ; they escape to them as often as. they can and endow them with a symbolical mean-/ Ing. The Dublin mountains seem to have got misplaced from the far west; they nre that part of primeval Connacht which has set Itself at the door of Dublin In order to turn the heart of the Gael west rather than east. In the Dublin mountains there travel to and fro the old vagrants with whon) lingers the memory of a Celtic poetry and from whom Synge and Yeats and the reat have gathered so much local color. In Dublin Itself this old culture lingers alongside of the modern and English Industrialism of? the Llffey and the quaysides, and In the dirty streets on ,the north side one can still come across a ballad singer with a little group -round him. Charles Lever, when he was at Trinity college, dressed as a ballad singer and earned 30 shillings In the Dublin streets, and another and even more famous Trinity college student earned a erowu every now and then fur a st reef song. This young mnn whs Oliver iioldsmltti, whose statue now graces the entrance to the uni versity. than whom no man frmld be found more typical of the beat period of Dublin's prosperity.

Marclevlcs held Stephen's green with a troop of boy scouts. A story Is told which shows the amazing muddle of those days'. Some English lady visitors had Just looked at the Shelburne hotel and, looking out of the window, they saw some bare-kneed, red-cheeked children digging trenches In the green. "We highly approve of the scout movement," they said. "Let Us take them some plates of bread and Jam." Judge .of their surprise a quarter of an hour later to find them selves prisoners of war In the middle of the green. AMAZING FEATS OF STRENGTH Pole, Without Seemingly Remarkable Muscular Developments, Breaks Rec ord ? Performer's Awful Fate. Visitors to a. well-known London mu sic hnll some years ago witnessed a remarkable sight. It was announced that a Pole, named Lettl, would perform some amazing feats of strength. There appeared upon the stage a lit tle man only Ave feet In height, and weighing about 140 pounds. Not young, either, for he was only three years ott for* v. * The auu.tw xr fibbed their eyes. Was this the much advertised strong man? A huge anchor was brought In, and four men clung to It. This bur den, weighing no less than 1,500. pounds* was at once lifted by Lettl, who thus beat the record lift by no less than 400 pounds. He then stood between two eight horsepower curs, to which he at tached himself by moans of hooks, which he held in his hands. The cars were started simultaneously, but, t>y sheer Anger-strength, Lettl held them so that they could not move, although the engines were working at full power. This feat of holding two cars may perhaps be taken as pretty well the limit of human strength. That It is a fearfully risky feat Is proved by the horrible accident which recently befell the famous strong man known as Apollon. At Vichy, before a large audience, he essayed a similar feat, his arms be ing harnessed by chains to two cars which were driven in opposite direc tions. Ho accomplished the perform ance safely, and then, In answer to applause, tried It again. To the hor ror of the spectators, he was seen to lose his balance. Before the motors could bo stopped, all the muscles of the rlgh{ side of hfs chest wcrs ,korn out. He died almost Instantly. The Colors on Santiago Walls.
