tion" was the subject of an address last
evening in Academy Hall, No. 3.O77 Third
Avenue, by the Rev L. A. But er of St.
Louis. Beside the speaker sat the Rev.
Father Foley, also Of st. Louis and the
chair was taken by Mr.. William Burke,
president OF the branch society of the st.
Louis Colonization Association. The
speaker opened his address by stating that
his views on Irish colonization had their
root in the dear old land when he had been
a curate in the county of Wicklow 1t was
there that his soul revolted against the in
human deeds OF the cruel landlord and the
more cruel agent. When the poor Irish
were driven from their homes and became
outcasts they had the consolation afforded
by their pastors that wherever
they went God vould watch over
them. The duty of the priest did not end
there. for he followed the exiles across the
seas and pursued them into the prairies of
Kansas. where Uncle Sam has land. enonpb
to give farms TO ms ali. TAnpIanse and
