THE BURNS ANNIVERSARY
Celebrated with Song and Speech by the
Scotchmen Who Love to Honor That Poet

Those attending the entertainment of
the Caledonian Quoting Club last night,
at Lyra Hall, were given the best of music,
recitations and speeches that the
sentiment attending the 130th ami
versary Of the birth of Robert Burns
suggested. A fine programme had
been arranged of Scottish music, suggest
i've of the rugged scenery and romance OF
this. the land of beauty and song. This
was made still more acceptable by being
taken from the productions of Scottish
bards. Everything that was sung was
given in the Scotch dialect, and all things
combined to make the Scottish heart,
of which Burns spoke so much, feel glad
and turn to the bonnie land. The large
audience present manifested its enjoyment
by giving each participant most hearty ap-
plause. Those from abroad were Messrs.
natl. Mr.. Mcleod opened the exer-
cises with music on the bagpipes.
He wore the dress of the Scottish high
lander, and his music was received with
enthusiasm. Mr.. Craig's singing was espe-
was was made Known S ' by repeat repeated recalls. @ @
Prof. w. w. Grant delivered q short ad-
dress ON Robert Burns, giving noble tribute
to his virtues, in which he said that his
soul yearned for freedom and the equal
rights of man, and he gave glimpses
of his vision of universal brotherhood.
All inanimate nature had message for
him. The flowers spoke TO him of gentle
ness and love and often pointed the moral
of his song Wind. and storm, and tempest
delighted him and taught him, too, the
Hard unkindness and vengeful malice of
man to man." But mark him as he meets
his friends. Whoever touched his fancy he
at once enthrOned within his heart. Burns
knew the old melodies of his race. the ac-
cumulated wealth of centuries of Scottish
song, and those Uncouth, fiery verses, purl-
fled by the harmony in his soul, came forth
to find response in every human heart.
After Prof Grants address, the remain
| ing part of the programme consisted of
| songs. Governor HOvey and Lieutenant
| governor Chase were present, and occupied
| a position on the stage. Governor Hovey
was asked to address those present, but de-
| clined, owing to the bad condition of his
| voice. acknowledgements Chase was
| called upon, and made a few remarks eX-
| pressing his pleasure at being present. He
| said he had never felt before that he would
have liked to have been u Scot SO much as
| he did then.
| This part of the exercises of the evening
| closed with "Auld Lang Syne." After the
| floor was cleared the dancing commenced,
the grand march being played on the bag
| pipe and led by Mr.. Mcleod. There Were
| eighteen dances, and over fifty couples par
ticlpated III the enjoyment.

and no provision was ever made by wnlch
the new management could pay tnem

been raised. They have been allowed by
the committee on claims at the last nxe
sessions of the Legislature, but by the 1ai,,
at either of said sessions, they still remain
unpaid.

An Old Soldier Discharged.


The Senate resolution requiring that
twenty of the twenty-seven door-keepers
shall be ex-Union soldiers has not been COM
piled with. at least that is what men who
were on Door-keeper Hamilton's force at
the beginning of the session say. In order
to give out the impression that he was put
ting on soldiers, the Door-keeper discharged
several of his original force, but it seems
that he has filled but few of the places
with ex-soldiers. In fact, he has discharged
veterans and put in their place men who
were demanding that they should be re-
warded for political service. One of the
ex-Union soldiers discharged was Barney
Burns, of Morgan county. He was in the
service three years. and bears number of
wounds he received in battle. He was dis
charged in order that Amos s. Hart,
the member of the United States grand
Jury from Morgan county, might be given
a position. II came up here and gave two
weeks of my time, and spent considerable
money. in order that Hamilton might be
made Door-keeper," said Burns toa Journal
reporter, yesterday. As an old soldier, L
supposed i would be retained on the force,
but was dismissed simply because Hamil-
ton was told he had to make place for
Hart because of the political services he
has rendered the Democrats. Hart was not
a soldier, and is Democrat whose party
fealty has always been mistrusted. | see
that Hamilton says that Hart is not draw
ing pay yet, and that II: G. Cox, a brother
of the Senator. is filling his position tempo
rarily Now. Hart told me he was drawing
pay from both the Legislature and the gov
eminent. and know that both he and Cox
have been on the pay-rollfrom the first day
