Ireland, being largely Catholic, sup- ported James, but the English people haring become almost exclusively Protestant, though the Catholic Stu- arts made several attempts to regain a scepter to which by rigbt of Inheri- tance they were entitled, the Protes- tant Htinoverian kings became a fix- ture and sit on the throne of England, Ireland and Scotland today. Terence O'Grady's grandfatber or some one away back in the line was a younger son, and Terence was not es- pecially blessed with this world's goods. Being born a gentleman, ho had little taste for hard work, and this ,gave him abundance of time to get into mischief. He was aiwnys seen on the turf when a race was on and, being an excellent judge of a horse, knew how to place what money he had for a stake and always won. He bad else a great talent for games and rare- ly sat •down to cards that he did not get up a trifle richer. Terence was generous to a fault, and, no matter how fat was his pocketbook, he would divide with a friend in need. IIe was very popular with then, and there was scarcely a girl within n bun - deed miles of where he lived but was in love with him; Indeed, all the girls roundabout had chance to•make his acquaintance, for, poor as he was, he owned one of the fleetest as well as one of the most enduring mares in Irelaud, - and instead of staying quietly at home he was constantly flyiug about, never coming from a foray without bringing with hila a new heart -not that he tried to Influence the girls in his favor, but there was something about him that drew them to Dim as flies are drawn to sugar. There was one girl, Kitty O'Neill, on whom Terence lavished all his bounti- ful affection. Kitty lived at Ballin- garry, a long way from'1'erence's home, but that didn't matter as long as he owned Bess and would rather be in the saddle than anywhere else except sparking Kitty. The eighty miles that separated them was no barrier be- tween their loving hearts, and Terence .visited his ladylove frequently. In- deed, when inquiry was made for him the usual reply alts, "You'll either and hint on the road to Miss O'Neill's or with her." O'Grady and his Bess were known everywhere. Many a time site saved hint from the sheriff when that officer came down ou him too suddenly for him to raise money to pay a debt. The way be came to 0wu the mare was this: In a certain race Michael Don- oghue, a frequenter of the turf, who bad no end of money, told Terence that If he would name the winner lie would reward him with the horse. Terence named Bess. Donoghue won £1,000 on the race, bought Bess for £600 and gave her to Terence. Her new owner entered her for several races and won enough money to set him well up, but be either spent it or gave it away. So in the end he had nothing left but the mare. Terence was not caught in anything treasonable, always lighting on his feet like a cat after being thrown in the air, till one day a Seotchman, Alexan- der MacDougall, came to Ireland and stopped ew hile in the County 'Tipper- ary, where Terence lived. No one could find out what was MacDotigall's business or what brought him to Ire, laud. Then carpe reports from over the Irish channel that Prince Charlie had come from France, landed on the Scotch coast at the head of a consider- able force and, marching toward Lon- don, was being joined as he proceeded by the Scotch clans. It was known to the English govern- ment tont emissaries had been sent to Ireland to rouse the people to assist Prince Charlie to regain his throneand that MacDougall was one of them. But while the sympathies of the Irish were with the prince there Was no n101005 in Ireland about whleh to gather, tend no movement was made in his favor. Thls Was fortunate, for at the battle of Culloden the Stuart forces were routed by the 1)tuke of Cumberland's army, and there followed a series of executions that drained Seotland of her best blood. While these things Were in progress Terence O'Grady, Who was in favor of the movement to put trines Charlie on the throne of England, was as sure to get himself into trouble as a frog is to jump from a log into the wa- ter :ma was in constant .eonforence with MacDougall. One Iltiglt Ilancliside had been sent out by George 11. front Loudon to keep an eye on the Scotchman and nip in the lend any effort he might make in behalf of the prince. MacDougall, soon got Terence under his influence, and the two were in constant secret com11111111cation. tInudiside soon became aware of this but was unable to gain any proof of it There was no rebellion in irelnnd- and tiro Englishman had been instructed to net within the taw o1' not at all, for the government did not wish . to in- flame the sliloldering sympathy with the Scotch movement. However, Iiaudisido kept a watch on lion hau failed and the gnvernmtart had begun sending those who land heels cont'ernecl le It to the block. Then he Was arraigned for treason to his ahaj- elaty Georg IL, king or England, Ifs conspiring on a certain 'tight W incite and latae part in rebellion, elueIou- gall had fled, nod the only possible evi- dence against O'Grady was that of Rafferty, who swore that on the even- • tug or the 25t1t of April front the branches of a tree he had seen the prisoner through: an open window and beard him tell MacDougall that he Mould runlet) a bnnar'ed men to ll'id. in placing PrInce Charlie on the British throne. O'Grady's counsel sent to Ballingarry for the priest who had seen his 'tient nt early runs' on Sunday morning, April 20, and received a gain's fur the poor of the parish. Kitty O'Neill also gave her evidence as well as several other persons who had scent 's'eren'e at mass, It was admitted that he wonld not have been likely to be in one place between 0 and 10 o'clock nt 'tight and in another eighty utiles distant at 6 o'eloek the next morning. So the case fell to the ground, the government re- leased the prisonsr, and, ireined not staving taken any part in the rebellion, there were no further prosecutions. Not, long after this Kitty O'Neill In- herited some land from a relative. She and Terence O'Grady were married and settled down, Terence giving her charge of all their funds. She had a hard time with him for awhile to keep him from getting into debt, but finally he became used to the new regime, and they got on swirntningly, the house where MacDougall was lodg- ed day and night, One evening, just before dark, he saw O'Grady enter the house. Ile wets admitted by \iue- Dongall, and the door• closed, In a few minutes a Tight appeared in a room on the second floor of the burse, and 1landiside knew that there would be n political conference between the two men. Ilancliskle had found 0110 person in the piece who was all enemy of .O'Grady, a loan of the name of Rafferty, whom O'Grady had culled for rudeness to a woman. Handi- side went after Itagerty and told biro to collie with 11101. On neilring Mac- Dougall's house Ilaudiside pointed out an apple tree growing near the win- dow where the two couspirators were deliberating and told him to climb it, look in at the window and see what he could to fx treason on O'Grady. Rafferty climbed the tree, found the sash lifted and heard O'Grady pro- pose to raise a hundred. hien in the county to aid the cause of Prince Charlie. But Rafferty's presence was made known to the man within by the breaking of a branch. O'Grady thrust a candle from the window and saw his enemy. Ile 010 not know that Ilandi- side had instructed the spying, but he knew that Jae would be arrested and tried for treason.. And since it was well known that the government was Hunting for some one to make an ex- ample of he would probably lose his head. Something must be done to counter- act the evidence that had been obtain- ed against him. But what could be done? As soon as Uandisido could swear out a warrant against hill Ter- ence would be arrested. F ortunntely no court world sit till morning, and no warrant could be obtained till then. Terence had many friends who would have hidden him, but such a plan would be it mere makeshift, and for the present be would be obliged to continue in hiding indefinitely. In times requiring quick action we not unnaturally turn to that with which we are familiar. Leaving MacDougall, Terence went by a roundabout way to the stable where he kept Bess and, mounting, set out for Ballingarry. It was 10 o'clock when be started, but for half the night he had the moon to light the way, and fortunately Bess had not been out of the stable for a day and a half. She went off like a shot, knowing by the prick of the spur and the touch of the whip that quick work was required. It was not only quick work, but endurance, that was needed to save her master's life. While on the way 'Terence thought that he might better make for the coast and escnpe in thnt way; but, consider- ing the times, he feared that the shore would be guarded and flight would be an acknowledgment of the truth of the accusation that would be brought against him. So he kept on his course. He bad eighty miles to go, but It might not be necessary for Bess to do it all. She did twenty miles when Terence gave her water and half an hour's rest. Thea she did twenty miles more, but in much slower- time. After another fest she did ten miles, when Terence, coming to a barn at 3 o'clock in the morning, borrowed a horse of a farmer whom he awakened, explaining his necessity and leaving Loess as secu- rity. At n qual'ter to 6 iie rode into 'Bailin- garry, and since 11 was Sunday he found the people already turning out for early mass. Leaving his horse at a stable, he went to the church and after mass asked for a few words with the priest. He was taken into the pastor's private room, and he banded the fa- ther ld guinea as an offering to the poor of the parish. Ile hoped by tilts to fix the fact on the priest's mind that he had been at early mass 'en. Sunday morning. Terence breakfasted with Kitty O'Neill and told her of the ruse by high be hoped. to save his head. He remained nt Bailingnrry all day and Clint night. The next morning he made iris way beck home, )')iel:ing up Bess and riding leisurely into town during the evening. IIandiside was watching for 01111, and as soon as he nppenred he was arrested under a king's wnrrant and thrown into .jail. Terme* was not 'tried till the rebel.

Roughly speaking the Winni- peg prices for wheat had averaged eroiiid 80 cents per bushel before the oar, while recent quotations are in the neighborhood of $1.05 and have been higher, There have been some Suctuatlons due to uncertainty re• garding the conditions of shipment and insurance across the Atlantic, but generally speaking there is little doubt that the war will mean much higher prices to the Western farmer than would have been the case if peace had prevailed. In so far as tit increased price will compensate fon a partial loss of crop, the West will gain from the war. An outstanding and interesting fact in favor the differencev r of the 1S great g Winnipeg market in the price of wheat. _On August 10th the Wined. peg brace 'Wats 14 cents per bush, higher than the Minneapolis price fo the same kind of wheat. In fact the difference was so great that Canad?.an millers were forced to buy Americana wheat which could be laid do ;vn cheap• er at Canadian mills after the fre':glit and duty had been paid than the Can- adian article. Under war conditions, which, however, everyone hopes will not prevail long, it would seem that the Canadian wheat grower would suffer by a removal of the duty. The big American wheat crop has tended to reduce the pries of wheat in this continent, and apparently there wes a possibility -of the Canadian millers buying large quantities of wheat in the United States, some of which Might have been used tri the one mil- lion bag order, comprising Canadian Sour, given to Great Britain. The Government has, however, protected the interest of the Canadian wheat growers by requiring the mills to use nothing but Canadian wheat in luanu- '�.:turing this huge order.

Terence O'Grady's grandfatber or some one away back in the line was a younger son, and Terence was not es- pecially blessed with this world's goods. Being born a gentleman, ho had little taste for hard work, and this ,gave him abundance of time to get into mischief. He was aiwnys seen on the turf when a race was on and, being an excellent judge of a horse, knew how to place what money he had for a stake and always won. He bad else a great talent for games and rare- ly sat •down to cards that he did not get up a trifle richer. Terence was generous to a fault, and, no matter how fat was his pocketbook, he would divide with a friend in need. IIe was very popular with then, and there was scarcely a girl within n bun - deed miles of where he lived but was in love with him; Indeed, all the girls roundabout had chance to•make his acquaintance, for, poor as he was, he owned one of the fleetest as well as one of the most enduring mares in Irelaud, - and instead of staying quietly at home he was constantly flyiug about, never coming from a foray without bringing with hila a new heart -not that he tried to Influence the girls in his favor, but there was something about him that drew them to Dim as flies are drawn to sugar. There was one girl, Kitty O'Neill, on whom Terence lavished all his bounti- ful affection. Kitty lived at Ballin- garry, a long way from'1'erence's home, but that didn't matter as long as he owned Bess and would rather be in the saddle than anywhere else except sparking Kitty. The eighty miles that separated them was no barrier be- tween their loving hearts, and Terence .visited his ladylove frequently. In- deed, when inquiry was made for him the usual reply alts, "You'll either and hint on the road to Miss O'Neill's or with her." O'Grady and his Bess were known everywhere. Many a time site saved hint from the sheriff when that officer came down ou him too suddenly for him to raise money to pay a debt. The way be came to 0wu the mare was this: In a certain race Michael Don- oghue, a frequenter of the turf, who bad no end of money, told Terence that If he would name the winner lie would reward him with the horse. Terence named Bess. Donoghue won £1,000 on the race, bought Bess for £600 and gave her to Terence. Her new owner entered her for several races and won enough money to set him well up, but be either spent it or gave it away. So in the end he had nothing left but the mare. Terence was not caught in anything treasonable, always lighting on his feet like a cat after being thrown in the air, till one day a Seotchman, Alexan- der MacDougall, came to Ireland and stopped ew hile in the County 'Tipper- ary, where Terence lived. No one could find out what was MacDotigall's business or what brought him to Ire, laud. Then carpe reports from over the Irish channel that Prince Charlie had come from France, landed on the Scotch coast at the head of a consider- able force and, marching toward Lon- don, was being joined as he proceeded by the Scotch clans. It was known to the English govern- ment tont emissaries had been sent to Ireland to rouse the people to assist Prince Charlie to regain his throneand that MacDougall was one of them. But while the sympathies of the Irish were with the prince there Was no n101005 in Ireland about whleh to gather, tend no movement was made in his favor. Thls Was fortunate, for at the battle of Culloden the Stuart forces were routed by the 1)tuke of Cumberland's army, and there followed a series of executions that drained Seotland of her best blood. While these things Were in progress Terence O'Grady, Who was in favor of the movement to put trines Charlie on the throne of England, was as sure to get himself into trouble as a frog is to jump from a log into the wa- ter :ma was in constant .eonforence with MacDougall. One Iltiglt Ilancliside had been sent out by George 11. front Loudon to keep an eye on the Scotchman and nip in the lend any effort he might make in behalf of the prince. MacDougall, soon got Terence under his influence, and the two were in constant secret com11111111cation. tInudiside soon became aware of this but was unable to gain any proof of it There was no rebellion in irelnnd- and tiro Englishman had been instructed to net within the taw o1' not at all, for the government did not wish . to in- flame the sliloldering sympathy with the Scotch movement. However, Iiaudisido kept a watch on lion hau failed and the gnvernmtart had begun sending those who land heels cont'ernecl le It to the block. Then he Was arraigned for treason to his ahaj- elaty Georg IL, king or England, Ifs conspiring on a certain 'tight W incite and latae part in rebellion, elueIou- gall had fled, nod the only possible evi- dence against O'Grady was that of Rafferty, who swore that on the even- • tug or the 25t1t of April front the branches of a tree he had seen the prisoner through: an open window and beard him tell MacDougall that he Mould runlet) a bnnar'ed men to ll'id. in placing PrInce Charlie on the British throne. O'Grady's counsel sent to Ballingarry for the priest who had seen his 'tient nt early runs' on Sunday morning, April 20, and received a gain's fur the poor of the parish. Kitty O'Neill also gave her evidence as well as several other persons who had scent 's'eren'e at mass, It was admitted that he wonld not have been likely to be in one place between 0 and 10 o'clock nt 'tight and in another eighty utiles distant at 6 o'eloek the next morning. So the case fell to the ground, the government re- leased the prisonsr, and, ireined not staving taken any part in the rebellion, there were no further prosecutions. Not, long after this Kitty O'Neill In- herited some land from a relative. She and Terence O'Grady were married and settled down, Terence giving her charge of all their funds. She had a hard time with him for awhile to keep him from getting into debt, but finally he became used to the new regime, and they got on swirntningly, the house where MacDougall was lodg- ed day and night, One evening, just before dark, he saw O'Grady enter the house. Ile wets admitted by \iue- Dongall, and the door• closed, In a few minutes a Tight appeared in a room on the second floor of the burse, and 1landiside knew that there would be n political conference between the two men. Ilancliskle had found 0110 person in the piece who was all enemy of .O'Grady, a loan of the name of Rafferty, whom O'Grady had culled for rudeness to a woman. Handi- side went after Itagerty and told biro to collie with 11101. On neilring Mac- Dougall's house Ilaudiside pointed out an apple tree growing near the win- dow where the two couspirators were deliberating and told him to climb it, look in at the window and see what he could to fx treason on O'Grady. Rafferty climbed the tree, found the sash lifted and heard O'Grady pro- pose to raise a hundred. hien in the county to aid the cause of Prince Charlie. But Rafferty's presence was made known to the man within by the breaking of a branch. O'Grady thrust a candle from the window and saw his enemy. Ile 010 not know that Ilandi- side had instructed the spying, but he knew that Jae would be arrested and tried for treason.. And since it was well known that the government was Hunting for some one to make an ex- ample of he would probably lose his head. Something must be done to counter- act the evidence that had been obtain- ed against him. But what could be done? As soon as Uandisido could swear out a warrant against hill Ter- ence would be arrested. F ortunntely no court world sit till morning, and no warrant could be obtained till then. Terence had many friends who would have hidden him, but such a plan would be it mere makeshift, and for the present be would be obliged to continue in hiding indefinitely. In times requiring quick action we not unnaturally turn to that with which we are familiar. Leaving MacDougall, Terence went by a roundabout way to the stable where he kept Bess and, mounting, set out for Ballingarry. It was 10 o'clock when be started, but for half the night he had the moon to light the way, and fortunately Bess had not been out of the stable for a day and a half. She went off like a shot, knowing by the prick of the spur and the touch of the whip that quick work was required. It was not only quick work, but endurance, that was needed to save her master's life. While on the way 'Terence thought that he might better make for the coast and escnpe in thnt way; but, consider- ing the times, he feared that the shore would be guarded and flight would be an acknowledgment of the truth of the accusation that would be brought against him. So he kept on his course. He bad eighty miles to go, but It might not be necessary for Bess to do it all. She did twenty miles when Terence gave her water and half an hour's rest. Thea she did twenty miles more, but in much slower- time. After another fest she did ten miles, when Terence, coming to a barn at 3 o'clock in the morning, borrowed a horse of a farmer whom he awakened, explaining his necessity and leaving Loess as secu- rity. At n qual'ter to 6 iie rode into 'Bailin- garry, and since 11 was Sunday he found the people already turning out for early mass. Leaving his horse at a stable, he went to the church and after mass asked for a few words with the priest. He was taken into the pastor's private room, and he banded the fa- ther ld guinea as an offering to the poor of the parish. Ile hoped by tilts to fix the fact on the priest's mind that he had been at early mass 'en. Sunday morning. Terence breakfasted with Kitty O'Neill and told her of the ruse by high be hoped. to save his head. He remained nt Bailingnrry all day and Clint night. The next morning he made iris way beck home, )')iel:ing up Bess and riding leisurely into town during the evening. IIandiside was watching for 01111, and as soon as he nppenred he was arrested under a king's wnrrant and thrown into .jail. Terme* was not 'tried till the rebel.

Roughly speaking the Winni- peg prices for wheat had averaged eroiiid 80 cents per bushel before the oar, while recent quotations are in the neighborhood of $1.05 and have been higher, There have been some Suctuatlons due to uncertainty re• garding the conditions of shipment and insurance across the Atlantic, but generally speaking there is little doubt that the war will mean much higher prices to the Western farmer than would have been the case if peace had prevailed. In so far as tit increased price will compensate fon a partial loss of crop, the West will gain from the war. An outstanding and interesting fact in favor the differencev r of the 1S great g Winnipeg market in the price of wheat. _On August 10th the Wined. peg brace 'Wats 14 cents per bush, higher than the Minneapolis price fo the same kind of wheat. In fact the difference was so great that Canad?.an millers were forced to buy Americana wheat which could be laid do ;vn cheap• er at Canadian mills after the fre':glit and duty had been paid than the Can- adian article. Under war conditions, which, however, everyone hopes will not prevail long, it would seem that the Canadian wheat grower would suffer by a removal of the duty. The big American wheat crop has tended to reduce the pries of wheat in this continent, and apparently there wes a possibility -of the Canadian millers buying large quantities of wheat in the United States, some of which Might have been used tri the one mil- lion bag order, comprising Canadian Sour, given to Great Britain. The Government has, however, protected the interest of the Canadian wheat growers by requiring the mills to use nothing but Canadian wheat in luanu- '�.:turing this huge order.
