Nowhore In the world is the Irishman
aeen to bottor advantago than by h la own
fireside. Ho In llio most Interesting of
hosts, and his hospitality Is only equated
by the delightful manner In which ho makes
tho visitor fuel that ho Is honored by his
presence. A flvc-nilnuto conversation, ut
tho moat, Is long enough to Introduce) the
subject of "tny," and, while tho "man of
th' houso" begs "yor pardon, sor," ho Is
telling his wife that: "It's th Rlntleman,
hlmsllf, would ho lllsln' a sup of tny. Scald
a drop of wnthcr In th' kittle, Anne, an'
he'll bo after havln' It two ticks of th' way-of-th'-wall."
It IB needless to refuse the entertain
ment, for the ready tongue of tho native
will overrule a wholo array of excuses.' The
"tay" soon materializes and Is served In
stone mugs or tin "porringers." If the aero
or two of land "faclti th' dure" Is too cold
to sustain a cow, goat's milk will lend Its
not unpleasant flavor to the ten. Horae
mado bread rounds off the "snack," and
then tho musical brogue breaks forth again.
When tho guest tnkes his leave It Is, "Well,
in troth, nor, we're fair sorry yo can't stay
linger. Shurc, ye'll como again ye will,
now! Good day, to ye, sor, good day. May
yo llvo till I clap eyes on a deccntcr man
than ycrsclf."
It wo go on a searoh for Pat and his hum
ble homo wo find them at every turn In tho
road, almost. In corncrH of green fields,
beside tho barren stretch of bogland, on the
mountain side nnd nt tho bottom of tho low
lying hills, ho has set himself down. His
life Is hard, but an ever-present hopeful
ness makes him one of tho happiest raortalB
In tho universe. Ho Is not very particular
In rogard to tho neatness of his surround
ings, and, as ho Is not worried In tho least
by tho comments of strangers, wo will havo
a look ut his abodes and, no doubt, come
away convinced that Pat has been sadly
misrepresented.
Pcrchauco wo stray on a mud cabin simi
lar to the accompanying lllustrntlon. Its
substantial construction Is Immediately
noticeable In nine cases out of ten It Is an
uninviting place. Tho two "family" coats
have eaten most of tho "quicks" In tho
hedges enclosing tho cottage, tho plot uf
ground, which goes by the prctcutlouu namo
of "garden," Is overrun with weeds, nnd the
hard snout of tho half-starved pig ha3
"hoked" It Into unsightly roughness. A
"creel" or two of turf llo scattered In 11
dull grey of the heavy boulders. Tho flour
ishing Virginia creeper Is making an effort
to cast shadows through tho glistening win
dows Into tho "blst room in th' house!" a
row of geraniums are Just beginning to give
their blood-red blossoms a glimpse of this
life-giving sunshine und two fuchsia shrubs
gracofully lower their branches under a
load of bell-shaped blossoms. Tho wall
flowers are making strenuous efforts to sur
pass all rivals and succeed to tho extcut of
covering with plentiful glory the top of the
othorwlse unsightly wall enclosing the yard.
At small cot the place has been given a
real touch of beauty nnd, although tho evi
dences of humble circumstances are only
too manifest, there Is no mistaking the con
tentment that reigns there.
So It Is wncrever you wander through tho
Island neatness and untidiness. The sur
roundings of tho cottages In Ulster, Mun
strr, Lclnstcr and Connaugbt are tho same.
In fact, a uniformity exists In this regard
that can hardly bo applied to anything eloc
In tho country.
To complete the study of tho Irish cot
tager, however, we must have a glltupio of
his kitchen, tho one room that Is dearer
to his heart than tho castles of the land

Tho growth of socialism in tho city of
Omaha Is one of those things which bafiles
the closest student of the phenomena of
politics, for It Is of such an uneven nature,
at times seeming to bo greatly accelerated
and then dropping oft In a way which
leaves one In doubt as to whether tho Idea
has had nny permanent growth. Tho only
real evidence of growth which has taken
placo In tho last ten years Is the fact that
tho number calling themselves socialists
has become largo enough to admit of a
Bchlsm and n division, which appears to bo
over trivial matters, to a casual observer,

but which those engaged In the fight say Is
an Impassable gulf.
According to age, tho social labor party
must be reckoned as the original socialist
propaganda in Omaha and tho "regular"
party. This society at present consists of
ono section, having not more than eighteen
active, members. It owes allegiance to the
central body, which has Its headquarters In
New York City, where It publishes n dally
paper, and from whenco came orders to
tho faithful all over the country. This so
clety claims to be a branch of an Inter
national society whtch has ramifications In
every civilized country, being especially
strong in Germany.
I'artj' of l'nrannii,
The International soclnl labor party Is
looked upon In some quarters as tho suc
cessor of the International worklngmcn's
association, which existed In tho United
States until about 1890, but was strongest
about lSSo and 1SSG, the time of tho Hay
market riots In Chicago, which resulted
In tho execution of n number of persons
who were members of that society, and
whose death was bo recently deplored by
Chancellor Andrews of tho University of
Nebraska. This International worklng
mcn's association was not essentially a so
cialistic party. It admitted Into Its ranks
socialists and anarchists Indiscriminately
and had for Its ostenslblo object tho uni
fication of all wage-earners on some
declaration ot principles which was to
havo been adopted at a eonferenco to have
been hold tho year In which tho Chicago
anarchists wcro executed. This conference
was never held, but a few years later there
was a meting held In Brussels at whtch the
"socialist labor party" was formed as an
International body. Several delegates were
present from America, and upon their re
turn an activo propaganda was started.
Among tho old members ot the international
worklngmcn's association it found ready
growth, and tho socialist Immigrants from
Europo Increased their ranks. It was noted
as n peculiar circumstance that while the
most of tho Immigrants professing to bo
anarchists havo come from tho south ot
Europe, tho larger number of tho members
ot tho social labor party coming to this
country havo como from tho north of Eu
rope, Denmark and Germany sending tho
gronter number of them.
A few years ngo, during tho time ot de
pression in business in the state, Section
Omaha of tho socialist labor party bad
about 3S0 active merabors and maintained a
branch in every ward of tho city. "Gen
eral" Kelley wns one of tho leaders at that
tlmo. When times Improvod and tho work
Ingmen secured employment this section
dwindled until it reached Its present num
bor of eighteen. The socialist labor party
differs from tho other socialist party in
that it has no use for what Its members call
"palliative remedies" and demands tho
"summary" ending of the present social
system and the Immediate establishment of
"the co-operative commonwealth."
"American" Snulnllain,
The other socialist party is essentially an
American growth. Its members havo gen
erally passed through easy graduations
from the greenback party to tho social dem
ocratic party established a few years ago
by Eugene V, Debs and now, by tho opera
tion of the laws of several states which do
not' permit them to uso part of a name of
another party, have dropped tho word
"democratic" and are known as "socialists."
Whllo the social labor party has tho age,
this party has tho numbors nnd its growth
has been remarkable, not only In Omaha,
but In soveral western states. Ono of tho
high priests of this party is J. A. Wnyland
of Glrard, Kan., who haB taken tho place
formerly occupied by E. V. Debs. While
tbo demands of this party are no less radi
cal "the collective ownership ot alt means
of production, communication and distribu
tion" It has soma lmmodlnte demands
which It purposes to carry out through tho
channel of party politics. Tho chief of tho
immcdlato demands la the Initiative and
referendum system of lawmaking, and to
the success of this measure it Is chlofly di
recting its power.
It has in Omaha sevoral sections, the
etrongest being that ono which holds weekly
uiccuuBB m wnsnington ball. Its total
membership is now about 100, half that
number having Joined in the last month and
tho entire membership having been secured
since the mlddle-of-tho-road populists of
Douglas county decided that the populist
party had been killed by fusion with tho
democrats.
It Is this party which is making tbo open
propaganda in Omaha at the present time
and which will hold a stato convention In
this city September 21. Through the state
It has received considerable accessions from
radical populist partisans who are through
with fusion, but its membership Is proble
matic, as tho members themselves claim
that their voting strength Is far below tin
number enrolled In the sections.
Not Active In Politic..
Tho social labor party does not actively
engago In politics In the state of Nebraska
and does not expect Immediate adoption of
Its principles. On the othor hand, the
"socialists" claim that the country is on
tho eve of a social revolution and look for
ward to the adoption ot soclallstio Ideas by
the government within a few yoars.

Is his championship of tho modern trust.
Ho claims that theso combinations aro good
things, becauso they show tho pcoplo how
saving can bo effected In all branches of
trade and manufacture by co-operation, glv-.
Ing them nn opportunity to see what might
bo saved in the way of labor by tho cora
ploto co-operation which, they say, would
result from government ownership of' nil of
tho different lines of trade. Tho socialists,
especially thoso of tho International group
or tho social labor party, havo moro or less
of sympathy with the anarchists, whllo de
claring they hnvo nothing In common with
them. In Omaha none of tho socialists
havo anything but criticism to offer Czol
goez, tho murderer of President McKlnley,
and they add to the criticism tho natural
fear that tho soclullsts wilt be made to
suffer for tho acts of tho anarchist. Said
one of the International group: "Czolgosz
claims that he 1b an anarchist. Ho may
bo. but ho Is certainly not a socialist, as
somo people havo claimed. There is no
caBo on record whero a socialist ha ovor,
In tho promulgation of his Ideas, committed
any such a crime. In tho first place, the
average socialist Is a man who really sym
pathlres with his fellow man. and, again,
ho knows that all unlawful outbreaks are
certain to recoil upon their author and
upon the cause ho represents. Tho prcsl
dent of tho United States Is but one man.
Ho Is not responsible for tho existing bo
ctal condition, but In somo ways ho Is a
victim of It, tho samo as every other man.
His lite or death means nothing to tbo
causo of socialism, but his unlawful re
moval might havo a bad effect upon the
cause."

ALL ABOUT KGC.S.
Should lie Above Suspicion Way of
Serving.
Eggs, although so closely rolnted to
tncats In their food value, are better
adapted to tho full round of seasons than
the flesh ot animals. In the early spring
they begin to grow moro plentiful nnd from
then on until tbo nppctlto again Inclines
toward the grosser meats, tho markets aro
generally provided with an abundant supply
of good fresh eggs.
An egg, of all foods, must be above sus
picion, for the senses once offended by an
Ill-conditioned egg will never forgive tho
affront,
Eggs play a very Important part In cook
ing aside from their employment as tho
principal dish of tho meal and taking tho
placo ot meats, as tboy enter Into on in
flnlto variety of different dlBhes,
But considering them only as meat dishes
we havo a bewildering list to chooso trom,
so that If we cared to serve thorn moro fre
quontly than meats on our dally bill ot faro
it would tako us a long time to exhaust
tho list. For breakfast dlshe3 especially
wo have a delightful assortment.
From a housekeeper, whoso "experience

bit of knowledge: Tho way to boll nn egg
Is not to boll It nt all. This may scorn
paradoxical, but Is nevertheless true. Put
tho eggs In a wlro baskot with a handle
tho trying basket will answer: then set the
basket In a boiler and cover tho eggs woll
with perfoctly cold water, not warm or hot,
but cold water; set the boiler over thn flro
when the water will heat quickly and let tho
water Just como to n boll, but It must not
boll; at this particular tlmo not n mo
ment later or sooner rcraovo tho basket
from tho water and tho eggs will be cooked
Just as they should be; spread a largo dolly
on a heated dish; lay the eggs on this; fold
tbo corners of tho dolly over tho eggs and
sorvo at once. Follow tho directions to the
letter, and when the eggs aro broken and
turned out of tho shell, a la American, thsy
will roll out like balls of Jelly, leaving tho
shell clear and clean, tho egg thoroughly
cooked, tender and delicate.
Cupped Eggs Buttor the rcqulslto number
of egg cups and carefully break a fresh
egg Into each; sot the cups In a strainer
over boiling water nnd cook until tho whites
nro turnod and sot. Drop a bit of sweet,
fresh buttor on top of each and shako a
pinch of minced parsley over the butter;
serve at once.
Scalloped Eggs Moisten a cup of stalo
breadcrumbs with cream or rich milk; put a
layer In the bottom of a buttered dish:
