said:

chamber at Washington. We are again
confronted with the task of defeating
the Vaccinations of the English states

to bring to Il successful issue will if 6f-

exposed by the hardy Cells who are on
watch to defeat her plots, England is
compelled to resort to her inexhaustibe
stock OF mcndacity and try to convince
tho American public that the Catholic
IRISH, at home and in exile are more
friendly to Spain than to the land oil tho

are daily issued through the agency of

the extent Of saying that his holiness

Honor Their Memory.

Honor Their Memory.
Thursday evening, May &c, a mass
meeting of Irish-Americans was held in
Market hall. st. Paul, to commemorate
the deeds of the insurgents Of '9S. T.,
j. Cannon presided and in his opcoinp
address said:
we meet as American citizens, not
to speak Of revenge of country which
has wronged us for generations, but to
commemorate our forefathers, the hero
dead of '9S. During Ire!and's struggle
IN '9S the world looked on in callou, in
difference, the new world gave her all
she had, her tears. In uther centuries
men have fought for blun,ler and power
and their own liberty, bit it is left for
the nineteenth century to fight for the
liberty Of down-trodden ncighbor. The
world is better because the heroes of
IS lived and died in the cause of liberty.
Tho spirit of those men lis evidenced in
their chi)drens grandchildren today,
Who will fight with their country for
Cuba and avenge the victims of tho
Maino disaster, co per cent of whom
We're of Irish birth or. ,parentage."
Rev. j. ]. Keane. Of =, Minneapolis,
briefly told the tragic story of '9S, and
paid tribute to the Irish martyrs who
nave spilled their blood on every field
ON which was fought battle for lib
erty, eulogized the martial spirit Of the
victors at Fontenoy, and named many
famous battles fought and won under
the leadership of Irish heroes, who
earned the right not to be loved alone Of
Ireland, but of the whole world.
He referred to the much talkcd-of
Anglo-American alliance. and with
much feeling denounced tho country
(which had prostituted her power in
all her colonies to which America was
no exception, and has treated Ireland
as Turkey recently treated tho Armen-
ians, and which has earned and enjoys
the cordial hatred of every nation on
the globe. Her motive in seeking an
alliance with us is as purely selfish as
her motives have ever been. She fears
Russia in the east, Franco across the
channel, and she knows something of
the hatred against her in Germany. We
are not Anglo-Saxons in America, we
are Americans, mixture Of every race
under the sun. She is not our mother
land. She needs us, this whining Step
mother, whose cruelty drove lis into rev.
olution in our infancy, and there are
those among us who would meet her
advances half way? God forbid that
such calamity should ever befall this
grand. young nation. America is les-
tined to be the mistress of the sea- she
is practically impregnab1e on land, she
needs not England's aid, and l pray
God tho sun may never arise on the
union Of colors of the stars and stripes
and that blood-stained rag the union

M. ]. Costello made few remarks
anent the abandonment OF the cclebra-
ton Of the centennial in Ireland, and
said that the boys of good fighting Irish
stock are needed just now to fight for
humanity in Cuba. I,'Ah, would that 1t
were the long-suffering land of their
fathers"

Normal Commencement Ball.

The Normal Commencement
ball Wednesday evening given
by Seniors George Works and
Robert ApRoberts proved to be
a very pleasant event. There was
no lack of enjoyment, so eleverly
was everything planned by the
managers, and all seemed to vie
with each other in their efforts to
have good time. Refreshments
consisting of ice cream, straw
berries and cake was furnished by
Mr.. and Mrs. Thelander. While
the affair was purely a commence
ment ball in all that the name
implies, yet there was a goodly
sprinkling of town people present
principly former students, who
were invited, also several from
Hudson and other towns.

Married.

wedding took place of more than
ordinary interest, owing to the
high social standing in which the
contracting parties are held by
! the citizens of River Falls and by
their many acquaintance abroad.
It was the wedding of G. w.
$Swartz and Miss Name E. Will
liams.
The bride is the daughter of W.
H. Williams and is a general
favorite among her many friends.
She is earnest and conscient ious.
She is q graduate in the elemen-
tary course of the Normal and de-
}serves the credit of being among
the best of her class. Mr.. Swartz
is most exemplary young man,
and is a graduate Of the full Nor
NAL school course this year. The
title of his Commencement thesis
was "No Ideal Without Truth"
of which it was said by proml-
nent gentleman ofthis city, 1T was
) one of the finest grafton ever de-
livered here by . Normal School
graduate. = We think Mr.. Swartz
5 made noble beginning in putting
his beautiful theories to a practi-
cal test in the selection of his
lovely bride.
5 He has labored hard during the
past two years. Besides his regu-
lar school work he has edited the
}aNormal Badger and done much
other newspaper work. 1t is to
him that the TINES is indebted
for many of the excellent literary
treats upon the social happenings
Of the city.
5 Indeed Mr.. Swartz can truly
claim a popularity that few young
men can boast.
S The marriage took place at the
pleasant and beautifully decorated
parlors of the brides home, where
amidst the fragrant odors of pink
rose and the carnation, the
hymeneal knot was tied by Rev.
; Mcintosh. Only a few of the
immediate relatives were invited
with the exception of Supt. and
Mrs. Frank w. Bixby, personal
friends of the groom.
After the ceremonies were per-
formed an elaborate dinner was
served. The pleasant rooms of
the Williams cottage was superb
Civ decorated with flowers. Pink
and white constituted the scheme
of colors throughout the parlors
and dining-room. The tables al
SO were adorned with white roses
making the scene one OF splendor.
5The afternoon was pleasan tly
passed but soon the time for
the happy group to disperse ar
rived, and after pleasant parting
with the usual we'll wishes and
appropriate admonitions, Mr..
Swartz and his charming bride
set out for Hammond at which
place they took the even
ing train for Arkansaw, Mr..
Swartz's home where they will
visit for a short time. With
them go the best wishes OF the
TIMES and the many friends and
acquaintance.

Commencement Exercises at the Normal

VI Vic TWEEN ny -GH1Iu U1luC Vic
Faculty of the River Falls Nor;
NAL School passed Judgment up;
on the graduating classes and
Thursday morning Presl-
dent Parker presented the certif-
Gates and diplomas to the gradu-
ates in the presence of a large
audience. While there have been
adverse conditions incident to the
loss of the Normal School build
ling yet there is just compensa-
tion in the most favorable of eli
matte conditions, an increased eff
fort upon the part of students and
faculty, the comfortable housing
5 of the school by the public and
finally the erection of commodi-
Gus new building upon the old
site.
We do not deem it necessary to
laud the parties concerned for
their performance of simple duty.
A student body, that would dis
perse under any other than inevita-
BILE circumstances, has but vague
conception of moral responsibility.
5 A faculty that would loose heart
at the loss of a building are not Of
the proper fibre for public exem-
plars. A public that would re
main Indifferent to the demands
made upon it last December are
) unworthy Of the States recogni-
ton. But since there was the
unanimity of ideas upon the
maintenance of the Normal
School here the result points def
nitely to the moral utility of the
performance of duty.
5 IF civilization means anything
Sit means that civilized man by
virtue of the division of labor is
5 not only recipient of the good
things but he must of necessity be
a contributor as we'll. The TIMES
rejoices ill the fact of the large
conception of duty as evidenced
by the students, faculty and pub
5 lie of River Falls during the past
}seven months.
5 The commencement exercises
5 were happily introduced by the
model schools, Wednesday NOR
$ing. The little folks carried their
parts through creditably.
5 The afternoon was given to
5 the Phoenix Elementary class of
; thirty bright young people who
}enteltained the faculty, Regent
and Mrs. Lord, and the senior
class at Barmecide feast follow
ing which they invited the public
to witness the "Maypole Dance"
S4nuch to the amusement and en-
$joyment Of all.
Thursday morning the Senior
Glass program was rendered in the
Congregational church. The
class dispersed with the custom
airy "ClasS history, "valedictory
etc. and confined itself ex-
clusively to Interpretation of sub
jects intimately connected with
the work Of teaching. There was
not discord in the rendering of
the program. It is quite gener-
ally conceded that the Senior class
Of '98 is quite as strong as the
classes of the past. The class
will be distributed as follows next
year. Miss Delap, teacher in
Shell Lake, Miss Ingersoll, Miss
Roberts, Miss Frost and Miss
Caldwell will teach but they arenot
yet located. Messrs. Swartz and
Saby will enter the Wisconsin
University this fall and Messrs. )
Works and ApRoberts expect to
teach.

THE LAST MEMORIAL.

Perhaps we are few hours ahead
of time in bidding aloha to Mr. Nc
Kinley's Commission, but as we
wish to do it it shall be done right
now. Let it be said in honesty
without hattery that the selection
of Senator Cullom and Representa-
tive Hit, and we suppose many will
say of Senator Morgan also, has
given eminent satisfaction to all
parties in Hawaii. Outside Of their
official duties they have by their
friendly demeanor made themselves
respected and esteemed, as we'll as
popular, and both OF the two gen.
tlemen first mentioned might COM
mand any political gift at the hands
OF the Hawaiian people. In the
discharge of their somewhat ardu-
GUS and burdensome public duties
they have listened with courteous
and patient demeanor to our various
opinions; and they have been wise
in being secretive, for they have
compelled the press representing
the local Kilkenny Cats factions to
timidly and timorously approach to
the point Of almost expressing
opinions. May they depart from
our shores with our hearty aloha,
and may they in their committee
rooms, on the floors OF Congress and
by their own fresides occasionally
find amid their tolls and pleasures
a few pleasant "reminiscences of the
emerald isles OF the summer seas.
Aloha.

A Mechanic Kicks.

ED. The INDEPENDENT:-
l notice in the p. G. Advertiser
this morning that the contract to
build concrete sidewalk on Hotel
and Alakea streets outside the Y. M.
@. A. has been awarded to Mr.. w.
81. Cummings, the Government
Road Supervisor.
May I ask the taxpayers whether
it is fair to the mechanics in town
to be subjected to competition
with a salaried officer of the Gov
ernment?
don't think that there is single
mechanic or contractor who does
not respect Mr.. Cummings for the
good work he has done as Road
Supervisor, but at the same time l
feel sure that all OF us realize the
impossibility of competing with a
man who enjoys the advantages as
Mr.. Cummings does through his
official position. The dirt from the
roads, the most suitable working
men, carts, teams and rollers are
virtually at his disposal. l do not
make the slightest insinuation
against Mr.. Cummings, who, / am
convinced, is as honest as any man
can be, but he would not be- human
if he did not look after his own in
terests when an opportunity was
offered.
If Mr. Cummings wants 10 do
private business he is entitled.to it
as soon as he resigns from his Gov
ernment job. AS private contractor
he shall always receive my con-
gratulations, whenever he defeats
me, and receives job for which l
have rendered bid. AS long as he
is in his present position, l cannot
compete with him. MECHANIC.

charge OF larceny. The Chinaman
was considered absolutely trust

be light drinks, rice, toast, Cruel,

THE FUR IS FLYING.

1t has been frequently and recent
ly stated for the special benefit Of
the U, S. Commissioners that there
is a "split" among the Hawaiians in
regard to the fate Of their country,
but that the Americans, and in fact
all the Anglo-Saxons here, stand
shoulder to shoulder, and are a
harmonious and perfect political
unit.
