Many persons are at a loss to understand how it happens that Chili has a cruiser which bears the decidedly Irish name O’Higgins. The Atlanta Journal explains it. Our own government, as we know, has attempted to purchase this excellent cruiser which has just been completed in England. The name O’Higgins is held in affection and reverence in Chili. It is said she would have sold us the cruiser had it borne any other name. But the Chilians will never part with a cruiser named in honor of one of her best beloved patriots. There were two famous O’llig- giiis. Bernardo, the more famous, was the son of Ambrosio H. O’Hig- gins, who was born in Count \ Meath, Ireland, where he was born as Ambrose Higgins. This Cadiz bv his uncle, a priest, a; d O’Higgins struck Spain many a hard blow, and a cruiser used against Spain could bear no name more appropriate than this. ’ A HEALTHY WIFE Is a Husband’s Inspiration.

He landed at Buenos Ayres, put all the moirey he had into a peddler’s stock and with that strapped to his back tramped ever the Andes. It was his good fortune to reach Chili in the midst of a revolution. Like a'genuine Irishman he took a hand in the fight at once. He proved the best fighter of the lot, rose rapidly- and in 17-88 became captain general of Chili. Then he tacked the “O” to his name. He received the highest title the country could confer, and was subsequently appointed vice roy of Peru, holding which office he died at Lima in 1801. * Bernardo H. O’Higgins, the more famous son of a famous father, was born at Chilian, Chili, August 20, 1776. He was educated in England, where he remained until 1802, when he returned to Chili. His father died the year before. O’Higgins became in volved at once in the revolutionary plots of the time. In 1810 he was already a leader of the revolution ary party. When it obtained con trol of the government he was ap pointed to the command of the army, succeeding Carrera, who then took the field to overthrow the government, according to the usual course of things in that pe riod of time. But a Spanish army, crossing the border from Peru, the rivals agreed to combine their forces and wage war on the com mon enemy. Carrera, however, failed to co-operate with O’Hig gins at a critical‘stage of the cam paign—he was openly charged with treachery afterwards—an$. the army led by O’Higgins was com pletely routed by Osorio at Ra:> cagua. The country was aban doned to the, Spaniards, the Chil ians retreating in broken battal ions over the Andes. O’Higgins then offered his services to San Martin, who had collected ftii&fffiy at Mendoza. The patriots invaded Chili early in 1817, and on Feb ruary 12th of that year a great battle was fought at Chaeabuco, where O’Higgins* heading a des perate charge, turned defeat into brilliant victory. The occupation of Santiago followed, and San Martin, declining io accept the responsibilities of office, O Hig gins became supreme dictator of Chili, which was another name for director. In six years he had driven the last Spanisn force out of the country. Bernardo O’Higgins was a very able man. TJnder» his rule Chili developed rapidly. He was finally overthrown by his old rival Car rera, and disappeared from public life in 1828. He went to Lima and lived in seclusion, dying there October 24, 1842. cannot attend to their own busi ness and there fore'they think they know all about that of other peo- 1 short time, that te ole. once regain her strength.
