First Joint Meeting of the Ladies'

First Joint Meeting of the Ladies'
Auxiliary and the A. o. II.
Editor Irish Standard:
The first joint meeting Of the Ladies'
Auxiliary and the A. o. H. was held
Monday evening in the Red Jacket Opera
House and to say that the large assem-
blage was we'll pleased with the even
ing's entertainment would be like utter
ing something with which everyone is
perfectly familiar. But short account
of what transpiret: might not be amiss,
and might induce divisions which at pres
ent have no Ladies' Auxiliary to get
move on them and enjoy the privileges
we enjoy by having our worthy sisters
aid.
After the orchestra, which consisted
of Prof. Solomon, VIM. Morgan and Miss
Julia Lynch, pianist, played a fine Sc
lection, the president. Miss B. A. Ma
honey welcomed the assembled sons and
remarks, which were heartily applauded.
Next on the program was a. vocal sextet
by some of the members of the auxiliary,
which was greatly enjoyed. President
James Kelly was then called upon for an
adj ress and he delivered neat little
speech, which, while not Astounding in
high-sounding phrases, was full Of
sound sense and shows that Mr.. Kelly is
keeping abreast of the times. His SUBJ
was "The New Woman" and he claimed
that st. Bridget was the first one,
though not Of the bloomer variety.
Pete Sullivan Is also the bard on these
occa sions and when he sang Dennis
Murphy's Daughter Nell" he literally
brought down the house and he had to re-
spond to an encore. The genial captain
Of the Hibernian Rifles John e. O'Neill,
was called on for a few words and he
RESPONDED in a few happy remarks, while
deploring the fact that he didn't have
the eloquence of John Boyle O'Reilly to
thank the ladies' in a beftting manner.
After a vocal selection by Mrs. Dono-
van, Miss Harrington and Mike Keopgh
and recitations by Miss Shea, and Miss
Simmonds, vice president P. d. Sulli-
van gave a short sketch of the A. o. H.,
and cautioned all the ladies to see that
their sons and brothers Joined the A. o.
H. as 1t would make better Irishrnen and
better citizens Of them. 30 go 49,.
The audience next enjoyed a guitar
duet by Miss Della Mccormick and Con
Shea, and their music so delighted the
audience that they had to render an
other selection. After Miss Mamie Riney
recited little poem entitled, "Coney
Island, Down the Bay" which by the
way, was we'll rendered and very laugha-
BILE. Miss NJ. A. Mahoney rendered
'sShamus O'Brien'' in very spirited
manner and Shamus would have been
proud if he knew it to be treated in such
elegant style. Miss Mahoney, the pres
ident, then made few closing remarks,
in the course Of which she announced
that refreshments would be served and
dancing INDUCED In by all those who
desired to do SO.
la was q O'Clock when the end came
and all voted it came too swiftly and
there is no doubt that all those who had
the fortune to attend the first joint meet
ing will anxiously await the one prom
Used for the future.

The last meeting of Division No. 4, this
c:tv. mainly consisted of listening to the
report OF the delegates to the state con-
yention. The resolutions adopted by that
bodv were read and unanimously APP

Our noble order reiterates the words Ct
Archbishop Ireland: "Withered be the

Schools" The absolute separation OF
church and state is another cardinal prln-

the pernicious consequence of the union
of those systems in Europe, and we want
none Of it in America.

cules the idea Of any opposition to Pat

Cleveland returns to the city the appoint

many changes will be made in fourth-class
postoffices In Minnesota. He further says
that out of courtesy to Senator Davis all

the appointments will be announced. It Is

Jules Simon and Littre.

Simon hated slang. On one occas-
ion his interlocutor was Littre, his
fellow member in the Versailles days
of the national assembly. Llttre was
not at all opposed to argot. He en-
ployed many collaborators to look
out quotations for him for his diction-
airy, and no restrictions were imposed.
The collaborators might Gull them
from the most harum scarum vaude-
vile.
" Do you know, my dear Littre,
said Simon one afternoon, " do you
know that you do not use sufficient
circumspection with regard to your
dictionary? l find words there which
are downright slang"
Littre began to feel somewhat un-
easy. " Tell me, what are they ?" he
asked.
"Well, there is, for instance, the
word 'guibole' for leg
" The word 'guibolle' in my die
tionary ?" gasped the philologist
turning paler than usual and rushing
to the library to look at his own book,
in which of course he did not find tht
incriminated term. 1t was merely a
joke on the part of the minister of
public education. n.-F6rmightH Re

Bryan for the Senate.
Allen Willing 10 Retire 10 Make Room for
the Silver Champion.

William Vincent Allen, Senior sena-
tor from Nebraska, appears to be will
ing to sacrifice himself if William
Jennings Bryan expresses desire to
succeed him in the senate. Senator
Allen was asked how he regarded the
gossip connecting Bryan's name with
the Nebraska senatorship. In reply he
stated his readiness to give up his
seat to the leader of the Democratic
party in the recent election.
'It is the privilege of every Ameri-
can citizen to aspire for any or all the
offices in the power of his fellow citi-
zens to bestow," said he. 81 don't
know that Mr.. Bryan desires to come
to the senate, but if he does, he will
have no warmer friend or more stall
wart supporter than William Allen,
now senator from Nebraska" "
This declaration is regarded as in
dicative of a perfect understanding
between the eminent Nebraskans, and
that when the time comes to elect a
legislature that will choose Aliens
successor they will be found acting
together, to the end that Nebraska S
governor, who is credited with having
senatorial aspirations, does not cap
ture the legislature. Aliens readi-
ness to step out of Bryan's way is
explained by the supposition that he
knows positively that he is not desir-
ing a senatorial seat.

Uonstables Must Report.
Judge Scott Lays Down the Law on Liquor
Selling.

Judge Scott, in charging the Grand
Jury at the December term of criminal
Court, in Easton, took occasion to
score constables who do not heed the
law relative to the sale of liquors. He
pointed out that the law was plain in
saying that it was the duty of con-
stables to report to court all places
where liquor was sold, and that while
the law did not contemplate their
neglecting their occupations or playing
detective, it did require them to name
all placss where liquors are sold,
whether licensed or unlicensed, and
which can be learned of by the eXer-
else of ordinary diligence.
Judge Scott also said the law made
it the duty of the Court to see that
the constables performed their duty
faithfully, and that when a constable
was guilty of wlllfully or negligently
making a false return he was liable to
arrest and, on conviction, to fine OF
$500 and Imprisonment for two years.
The Judge spoke at considerable
length and gave fair warning that this
law would be rigidly enforced here
after.
Later a constable from Hellertown
asked if It was a violation for boy o.
r6 to play pool in hotel. Judge
Scott told him that if hotel proprie-
tor was convicted of allowing pool
playing by boys he would lose his
license.

ELY BROTHERS,
Criminal Costs Bill,

Senator-elect Miller, of Berks county,
is preparing a number of bills which
he will introduce into the Legislature.
One provides that where the costs are
imposed in criminal cases upon any
person, such person must pay them or
serve in the county Jail, not less than
ten nor more than sixty days. 1t is
believed that this change would save
Berks Co. at least $4,000 year.

What 1t Cost.

The St. Clair shooting cost
Northumberland county between four
Teen and fifteen hundred dollars. This
is interesting information for the tax
payers of the county and they will
soon begin to kick at the benefits
that Milton is receiving at the county's
expense. 1t isn't long since the com.
missioners gave us nice $57,5oo
bridge at 4 net cost of $4,000 to
the taxpayers, and now the county
has to foot a $1,000 bill just to teach
presumptuous people in adjoining
counties that they cannot come to
Milton and look sideways at out
street loafers and toughs without be-
ing shot down. Strangers travelling
our streets must neither look to the
right nor to the left. If insulted they
must go right along, and if they are
knocked down with a stone they
should get up and how reverently to
the individual who cast it. For all
they know he may be the high-cock-a-
lorum of some Christian benevolent
institution and this may be his pecul-
lar method of making them see the
error Of their ways."-AliLtM .ShaNd-
