AS son of Irish Catholic parents,

spirit of American liberty, born of the
sacrificed blood of Lexington, Concord
and Bunker Hill; in the name of the

name of the patriotic sacrifices of 81 to

EIoquence ard Song Were Blended Wit
Patriotic Feeling.
Some years ago, Englishmen on Thu
outs fell
With the men that live over in Ire
| land,
And johnny Bull don't get along very
| well
With the men that came over from
And now Uncle Sam, he's more trouble
than all,
About Spain and Cuba, he may have &
| squat,
If he wants any soldiers, why just lei
| him call
On the men that came over from Ire,
land.
That is a new verse which William j.
Heffern has added to his now famous
| song, ''The men that came over from
Ireland" and it was sung for the first
time at the ST. Patrick's day celebration
of the Washington Social Club, Thurs
day evening. 1t is needless to say that
| it struck a popular chord in the breasts
of all present, and it is also perhaps
! unnecessary to say that 'sBilly' was
| given an enthusiastic encore. The
verse, however, was only one of the
many good things that were given at
the entertainment Irish eloquence and
song, blended with soul stirring Ameri-
can patriotic hymns, rounded out a
most delightful night for the members
of the Washington Club and a few in
vited guests, and it was not until St
Patrick's day of 1898 was gone for all
time that the gathering broke up.
The entertainment was not held until
after the lecture Of the Ancient Order
of Hibernians in Mechanics hall. as sew
era1 of the Washingtons who We're down
to take part in the club celebration, al
so played prominent part in the larg-
er gathering across the street. One of
the features of the Washington's cele-
bration was an address on "Wolfe Tone.
the founder of united Ireland" by Ed
ward j. Mcmahon, who presided at the
Mechanics hall meeting. Mr.. Mcmahon
has been seldom in better voice, and
his narration of the great work done
by Tone in securing aid for down trod-
den Ireland was listened to with great
attention, tumultuous applause greet
ing his dramatic rendition of Ingra-
hams Men of '9S," with which he
closed his address. After his address
before the Washingtons, Mr. Mcmahon
returned to WaShburn hall, where he re-
sponded to the toast, "'98"
President Philip j, O'ConneH acted as
master of ceremonies at the meeting,
and he was unusually felicitous in his
introductions of those who contributed
to the entertainment, which was made
up of nirthful Irish melodies, rollicking
comic songs and patriotic ballads, which
were very we'll sung by Eugene A.
OConnor, p F. Moffett, William J..
Heffern. Edmund Hunt, John F, Nc
CARNEY, Thomas E. Rafferty,, Charles

by the entire party and good supply
of refreshments served to furnish an
almost unlimited entertainment and it
was not until long after o'clock that
the program was exhausted, the closing
numbers being a solo and chorus. ''The

Was it but an agonizing wall
no the sons and daughters of the Gael
Ye bequeathed;
When your sacred swords We sheathed.
When your God-annointed feet We found
By tyrants fiend-forged shackles bound
And with gibbets halo We were crowned
Was it all in vain,
Your failure to attain
The end We sought for.
To win the cause yei fought for
Ertn's freedom that we sighed for,
Erin's freedom that We died for?
Was 1t but a madman's scream?
Was it but a foolish dream?
Was it but a waste of breath?
Was it but a suicides sad death?

Careless of the giving
Or the keeping of your lives?

1t can be said, with truth, that no 9TH
cremation in the Christian world received
with so much joy and avidity the knowl-
edge Of the kingdom of Cod Nothing
can be found to equal the zeal with
which the new converts lent their aid
to st. Patrick in breaking down their
idols and demolishing their temples.
The cultivation and learning of the
Irish monks attracted students from ev-
cry part of christendom. There they
studied the arts and sciences, music and
architecture, and the working of metals.
Ireland was called ''a land of saints and

But a time came when all of this hap

TWO DAYS CAPTAIN.

With the paying off of the crew of
the American ship Henry b. Hyde,
says recent San Francisco
Chronicle, the story of a curious mu-
tiny was brought to light. For only
two days of the voyage did Captain
Scribner really command his crew,
which was composed not of sailors but
of curly graduates from the Bowery.
Pat O'Donnell, the toughest of them
all, constituted himself ringleader,
and it was under the O'Donnell
theum that Captain Scribner and his
officers sailed the good ship to San
Francisco. The captain and his Off
GERS were about the only souls on the
ship with any knowledge of naviga-
ton, and, to the extent of exercising
this knowledge, they were permitted
to retain their positions. Captain
Scribner would have put all the re-
fractory ones in irons. but as that
would have left him without crew
and as the men showed Il disposition
to limit their mutiny to impertinence
and undisguised grumbling, he decid,
ed to get along the best he could and
lose his unsavory family at this port
