there To open the window, ate some pears,
came back to the house, looked Mt the
fire, found IL was low, went to her room
to wait for the fire to come up, came down
and discovered her father This day was
one of the hottest days of that summer;
the loft of the barn was sitting in its
heat. Mullaley went into the barn when
he came to the scene, looked at the floor
and saw that the dust lay thick on the
floor. He stepped in il and saw plainly

that there was an unkindly feeling be-
tween the prisoner and her step mother;
that she was dwelling on murder and pre-
dieting disaster and cataloguing defenses;
tina from the time when Mrs. Borden
went up stairs to the time when the
prisoner came down an hour later, there
was no other human being there but this
prisoner at the bar; that these acts were of
. human being; Of one who must have had
familiar knowledge of the interior Of the
premises and of the habits of the occu-
pants; that she made contradictory state
ments as to how she found the bodies; and
the jury will be asked to say whether any
other reasonable hypothesis exists than
that the prisoner at the bar knows more
about this case than she has thus far dis
closed.

Lemons address cannot be given in part
even, on account OF the lack of space. Its
excellence would entitle it to a complete
presentation.
Vice President Patrick Clark took for
his theme. "Kindred Societies." and
and made a highly enjoyable address.
"The State of Rhode Island" was re-
sponded Ia by Councilman Thomas
o Bilen.
He sketched the progress OF Catholicity
in the State and the difficulties Catholics
had to contend against in years past. He
pointed out how the rights OF Catholics
were violated Notwithstanding constitu-
tional enactments until within a recent
period when the question OF intolerance
was pressed home upon them by able
Catholic representatives in her Legislative
halls from this city in particular.
Councilman Edward +. Gillian made one
OF the best speeches of the evening on
"The City Of Pawtucket." His remarks
on education were timely and met with
much favor.
Rev. Patrick +. McKenna, curate at st.
Mary's, made n telling speech that seemed
to hit his auditors just right. He has the
happy faculty OF knowing just what to
say and just how to say 1t.
Rev. George f. Mahoney, pastor Of the
French Church, had few words of con-
graduation to offer to Father Halligan
and he offered them in his best vien.
Father Mahoney was literally applauded.
Other speakers were Col. Patrick Il.
Hayes, Captain Francis Conlon, James Il.
Banigan, Patrick McNeal, Patrick j.
Murray and Michael Moy.
During the evening some excellent vo-
cal selections were rendered by Messrs
Robert J. Casey, w. Il. Rogers, w. f. A..
Gillian, A. J. Gallaghe Francis Afflick,
James Gallagher, John jolly and others,
and 1t was long past midnight when the
happy gathering was brought to a close.
The menu cards were done in silver and
were the work OF George w. Tompers.
Chairman McKitchen OF the committee
OF arrangements was heartily congratula-
ted by all at the close on the admirable
programme arranged and the successful
management OF the entire affair.

Toastmaster Meagher then presented the
Rev. William Halligan, pastor OF st. Mary's
Church. Father Halligan arose, so did
every other person In the room. The rev.
erend gentleman tried TO speak, but he
waited some time before he could be
heard. The applause was deafening.
Every heart was beating with sympathy
and Joy for the good priest who had done
81 much for his race and faith for the
community since he came to Pawtucket.
Hand clapping and cheers were good
mediums through which to express the
joyous appreciation of the noble mans
efforts and they were employed with a
hearty good will until Father Halligan
was forced to command silence.
Silence being secured, the distinguished
clergymen spoke In part as follows:
"Gentlemen OF st. Mary's Young Mems
