A Town In IrplMid That Hus Tindifion Behind It. "D«rry stands for Derry Walls; Mmerlck for the Bridge of the Broken Treaty." The slaiemont .seems to be just cnouRh, for, although the walls and the gates and the 'prentice boys of Derry ar« better known to most people than llic Thoniond Bridge and the Treaty Stone of Lim- erick, still the two slegefl and what followed them aro the great land- marks in the history of two counile.s. It was after the Hattle of the Uoyne. The Irish army, under the command of the Frenchman l.aiizun, for James had fled the country, retired liehlnd the Shannon, and William's vletoi- lous progress southward met with no resistance (ill his foroes approached Limerick from tiic Tlpperury side. At Limerick, however, he quickly '..Mm-ov- ered that he h.id to iii-eaKure swcrds wild no ordinary soldier. Lau-'.M iuid hai! no heart for the lijchl. He 'ijd taken one look at the forl.licatioiiK of the city, and, niutterint' to (linisilf that such walls might be â- balitred down with roa.sted apples," had roir- »d Into Oalway. His pla<-o, however, had been taken by a man of very dif- ferent metal. Patrick .'Sar.sfield had no IhouKht of giving up the city with- out a struggle, and, when William's army linally took up its po.sition on the ridge Bf i^singland, it found the old town primly determined on de- fence. It was no gue.stion of a. block- ade, as it was with Derry. The next .seventeen days were full of incid'-nt. William was slow and methodical. With him it was a question of con- centrating sufBcient force again.st the city. In the way of nrtillery, lo reduce it without much loss. .Sarstield pin- ned his faith to a hewildering rapidity of movement, and the story of how he and â- (iallopinf; Hogaft" slipped out one ni«bt with a few followers, went across Thomond Hridge, slriuk i,p the valley of the .Shannon, suddenly fell on one of William's iirtilleiy rraiu-i as it approached the city, destroye4 everylhing in si«ht, and then return- ed through Clare to Limerick, con- tains the central episode o' the siege. Finally, of course, Sarstield won, and William wa.s obliged lo retire. But this outcome was only a respite. A year later Auahrim wa.s fought and lost, and ,SaisUeld was again locked up in Limerick. This time he was forced to surrender, although on his own terms. The treaty which was signed at the head of the Thomond Bridge secured certain definilo rights to all who had followed .lames, whilst he himself left ih" city at tho head of his men. drums beating and colors flyinp, and more than 111,000 of liia soldiers took ship with him for France, to enter the service of King Louis: "It was the first (light of tlie Wild Geese." Looking hack from this central point in Limerick's history, It.s aii- n.ils still cover centuries.

For half â-  century he was a successful practic- ing physician In .New "i'ork. It was Carl Sehurz who linked with the name of Abraham Lincoin that of another great emancipatoi and patriot, Dr. Kudiich, who died' beloved by free people everywhere, and revered by three generations ol the liberated peasantry of Austria. The name of Hans Kudiich, mor« than that of any oiher man stood for the abolition throughout the Austrian empire of the accursed relics of th« feudal system and the serfdom of the peasantry. Dr. Kudiich was born in 182", ia the village of Lobenstein in northern Silesia, the son of a well-to-do fath- er. In that town lo-day stands a great monument built in the form of a tower, which bears his name graven in granite and which commemoratei his deeds. It is only one of scorei of monuments erected in his honoi all over Austria by a grateful people, but the shaft reared at his birthplace is perhaps the most impressive ol them all. Hans Kudiich, March 13, 1948, headed a student demonstration In the streets of Vienna, where he wai studying law in the university. H« and his associates were determined to present to the Diet a petition far- oring the freedom of the peasant class. Troops were called out to dis- perse the agitators and in the clash which followed Kudlich's blood was said to have been the first shed in th« revolution of 184S. The young pa- triot suffered a bayonet thrust through the hand, severing an artery, the scar ot which wound he carrieil to his death. Rescued by his comrades, he recoT- ered from his wound and emerged from concealment to find him-self the Idol of the common people. They clamorously made him their leadei and elected him to ihe reform cham- ber, which was to essay the task ol drawing up a reform con.stitution foi the empire. There youiis: Kudiich, onlj 25 years old, introduced and chaui- pioned to its passage the celebrated bill liberating the peasantry from th« terrible burdens imposed upon them by the state, the church and the no- bility. As a youth in Silesia his .spirit had groaned under the oppression ha had witnessed and studied. As a leader ot the reform Chamber ot De- puties his eloquence and enthusiasm swept away all barriers of opposition. His measure was passed and thi peasants w;«re liberated. Much of the work of that reforni chamber was blotted out in th« counter-revolution which followed and the assembly iiself was dispersed at the point of the bayonet. Bui young Kudlich's great achievemenl was left intact, for the threatened throne of the emperor could not chal- lenge safely another peasant uprising. rnder stress of the counter-revolu. tioii, however, lie was forced finally to flee lo America for his life. Throughout the dark yours of the civil war he untliuchingly upheld the hands of President Lincoln and was a potent force in arousing that great German- American movetueuL- which was no inconsiderable factor in re- cruiting the armies of the North and In helping to save the Union. Following the close of tho France- Prussian war amnesty was proclaimed for past political offenders. This brought (0 Dr. Kadlich the first op- portunity to visit .safely the home of his youth and the people for whom he bad done so much, ills tour through .\ustria was a veritable triumphal progress. .â- \t one large centre of royalty and titled prerogative, so the story goes, the authorities suggested to Dr. Kud- iich that they would be glad to con- fer upon, him the freedom of the city on the sole condition that he would drink a toast and speak a sentiment to the health and happiness of the kaiser. Dr. Kudiich smiled and re- plied: "I should rather not do that, and as for the freedom of your city, when I contemplate many of those upon whom you have conferred that dis- tinction, I do not know that I covet it." The youthful liberator of 4S was still (he Hon of democracy. As a place of residence, (he fatherland did not appeal to him at all he said. One ot Dr. Kudlich's most cherish- ed souvenirs, which came to him In 1908, was a great bound volume con- taining tho autographs of 30,000 emancipated peasants and their liber- ated childreti and grandchildren. Un- til the beginning of the present war letters came to him weekly and al- most daily proving how well his mem- ory was kept gre^'u in his native land. Many of these bore special stamp* showing Ihe engraved likeness of Dr, Kudiich himself, for on each recur- rent anniversary of emanclpatioa special Issues of souvenir stamps, the proceeds of their sale being devoted' to patriotic Teuton societies. When Germany began war in 1914 Dr. Kudiich became violently excited and condemned (he outbreak of the European conflagration. He assertedf often that It his native country had carried through bis reforms to a fin- ish, the great conflict would neyer have taken place. I'Se of Platinum to He Reduced.
