THE IRISH BANQUET.
A BouNTEous SPREAD PREPARED
AT TURNER HALL.
entertainment and Reception OF
Gnests-sweet songs and Irish
Melodies.

The members Of the Emmets and Of the
three divisions of the Ancient Order OF
Hibernians, together with their families
ana friends. began to gather at Turner
hail shortly after the noon hour, and by
O'Clock a large and representative crowd
had assembled. The fact that it was an
Irish holiday that was being celebrated
| was evidenced everywhere by banners
and streamers OF green, that color SO dear
| to the heart of every true Irshman. and
with the flags of the Emerald Isle aud OF
| the United States.
The grand old Stars and Stripes and the
green flag with it's harp of gold were
placed together and in such positions as
to be emblematic OF the close ties existing
between the two countries-one the native
land of the followers of St. Patrick, and
the other the home OF their adoption.
Shortly after / o'clock those present
were ushered into the dining room OF the
hall, where an inviting spread, consisting
of cold meats. salads, pastries, coffee and
other appetzing food. was served. The
tables in the hall seated some $50 persons
and 1t was necessary to make several
changes before providing for all OF those
in attendance.
Credit for the elegant spread and for
serving 1t is due the following ladies, par
ticularly: Mrs. Tom O'Leary, who was In
charge of the banquet and to whose skill
and energy the success of the affair Ia
chiefly due. She was assisted by Mrs.
Mahoney, Mrs. Giles, Mrs. Kennedy, Mrs.
j. Campbell, Mrs. P. Hewett Mrs. N
Towsey Miss Lawrence, MISS Fitzgerald
Miss NJ Doien, Miss n. Dolen Miss
Wead, Miss Carman, Miss Bell and Miss
Canes.
Governor Culberson honored the occa-
sion by his presence and was presented to
the audience by Mayor H. B. Rice, who
occupied the head of one OF the long
tables with the governor seated imme-
distely to his right.
There was no formality or ceremony at
tendant upon the occasion and no speech
making, Rev. Father O'Callahan of Gal
weston, who had been scheduled for an
address, not putting in an appearance.
A separate table had been arranged for
the clergy and was occupied by Rev.
Fathers Grove, Banfield, Lee, Keany,
Bsdelon and Drees.
When all had been served Prof. Lewis
military band entered the hall and played
several patriotic airs. AT the close of the
last of these the Arion Quartette club.
composed of Mr.. &. w, Nelson, Mr.,
George 3. Griggs, Mr. Duncan Bell and
Mr.. w. H. TAYLOR. sang THE Wearing of
the Green" and in response to a hearty
and enthusiastic ercore rendered Come
Back to Erin. Mavourneen" There are
but few better organizations of the char
acter In the city. and the members OF lac
club never appeared to better ADVANTAGE
than on this occasion. Their full, rich
voices seemed TO fill the hall with their
melody the tunes bringing back to the
hearts OF the sons of the Emerald Isle
fond memories OF the past.
After another selection or two by the
band the parade was formed in front OF
the hall
