The Emerald Club had a brilliant
social last evening in the HERALD build
ing, Humphrey B. Sullivan presiding as
master Of ceremonies. Mayor Spence
was the orator Of the day and delivered
a carefully considered address on the
subject of liberty in Ireland, advocating
the necessity of a united Irelsnd, a
union of hearts and a union of hands,
and the Gag Of old Erin forever. He
showed in mastery manner the in
intrigues Of the English government in
its attempts to array Catholic against
Protestant, and thus divide and con-
quer, or make Ireland conquer itself.
The speaker has recently visited the
Emerald Isle Of the Ocean" and con-
ferred with the leaders of Home Rule
and has since corresponded with the
managers of the cause Of Home Rule in
that country, and was therefore well
qualified to speak intelligently and elo-
auently on the subject. lie read copious
extracts from the speeches Of Parneil on
the necessity Of o unity Of action be-
tween Protestant and Catholic, which
were warmly applauded. The audience
was large and enthusiastic and comprised
a representation OF the most cultured
class Of the people OF Los Angeles.
After the admirable address of the
Mayor, in which his emotions strongly
interfered with his utterance, Mr.. James
Booth sang s1.ittle Shamrock" in an ex-
cellent and charming manner. In re-
sponse to an encore he sang "Chink,
Chink, Chink."
Mr.. J. G. DAILY then recited Shamus
O'Brien in a capital manner, not forget
ting to put in all the graces and infex-
ions of the brogue of the "0uld Sod"
Mr.. II. b. Sullivan then sang "White
Wings" and "You'll Soon Forget Kath-
Ieen." From the tone of his well modu-
lated vsice and the intensity of his Grim
son bushes, the audience decided that
Kathleen would not be forgotten by her
manly lover.
Mr.. Plat, the accompanist and plan
ist Of the evening, performed his task
with brilliant success. He exhibits the
skill Of master of the piano seldom
heard in social circles. After the mu.
sical and eratorical exercises waltz was
INDUCED in for short season before the
young ladies and gentlemen sought their
homes. Owing to the crowded state OF
the columns of the HERALn, the patri-
otic address Of His Honor, the Mayor,
was unavoidably crowded out, and the
notice Of the meeting had to be greatly

Yesterday afternoon Councilman L.
M. Breed in nominating Colonel Walter
s. Moore for Chief Engineer Of the Fire

desired to place in nomination a man
who under the volunteer system had
made the best Chief Engineer the city
ever had, who had responded to every
call for duty, who was fire horse, an
engine and hook and ladder truck
combined. Mr.. Breed also indulged in
various other complimentary remarks,
and after so eloquent speech Colonel
Moore's election was assured. The Col
onels friends are quite jubilant over his
election, and all Of them have full conf
dence that with his experience as o
fireman and with his good judgment the
city will be carefully guarded against
the ravages Of fire. The next Office Of
importance is that of Assistant Chief.
From the warm manner IN which Chief
elect Moore nominated ID. A. Moriarty
for the office Of Foreman of No. 2
Company some time ago, il is evident
whom he wants for his assistant. In
that memorable speech Colonel Moore
said, Dan Moriarty is one of the best
firemen in the city" There are lots OF
rafting good firemen in this city, and
the commission will have no difficulty in
filling the position with man who will
be faithful to the interests of the city.

Naval Affairs, called up the bill author
;z;ng the voluntary retirement OF GER
lain officers of the navy, who have rem
darad conspicuous service in battle or
= aved thirty years in the navy.
Thomas explained that the bill would
bepeiit those mon who were known as
sforward offisers," such ns boatswains,
gunners, sail makers. etc., who. though
having performed meritoricus service,
have never received any advancement.
II would also benefit the navy because
Il would result in removing from the
wav OF promotion the officers who were
known as dead wood, who held high
rank but were incapable of performing
their duties. The bill had been intro
duced for the purpose Of relieving the
present stagnant condition of the navy
aud bringing 10 the front some active
men who have had the advantage OF a
modern education. The tide OF promo.
tion should have started in order that
the best men in the service would not
quit in disgust after having been en-
signed ten, twelve or fifteen years,
Reagan. Of Texas, opposed the bill as
adding another class to the American
aristocrat to be fed and clothed by the
labor Of other men, The country had
gone far enough on the road toward
Establishing an American aristocracy.
Thomas ina uired what the gentleman
would do with the retired list OF the
army and navy.
Reagan replied that he would rel cal
those un. American and un-republican
laws and leave tho officers to work for
their living like other men, He would
have no man to live on the work Of other
men in country claiming to be a free
constitutional republic. If he could sue
ceed in preventing spread Of this evil
he would congratulate himself, even
though he could not secure the repeal OF
the retirement laws. Pending action
the morning hour expired, and the House
adjourned.
The House Committee on Lands to-
day heard long argument by ex-senator
Mcdonald OF Indiana against the pend
ing proposition to declare forfeited the

road Company. At the conclusion OF

bated at length.
Mr.. Mckee, of Kansas. moved that
the entire land grant be declared for
feited, and Mr.. Strait. Of Minnesota,
proposed TO amend the motion SO as to
Include within the forfeiture only such
lands as are opposite the unconstructed
portions of the road. Pending debate
the committee rose aud the matter was
