THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance Of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of it's remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

PLEASANT OCCASION.

One of the most enjoyable and largely
attended social events of this season was
the euchre and reception given by Mrs.
Walker to her many friends at Hibernian
Hall last Monday evening. The recep-
ton hall was inadequate to accommodate
the many who were present to pay their
respects to this popular lady, it being nee
essary to throw open the dancing hall
also.
The game commenced at $50 and con-
tinued until 1920, when the ladies'
prizes were awarded to Miss Sallie Smith
and Miss O'Leary, while the gentlemen S
prize went to Mr.. Cunniffe, the we'll
known letter-carrier. After the award
ing of the prizes refreshments were served
and dancing was INDUCED in until ~
o'clock.
Mrs. Walker was assisted in receiving
by Miss Rose Sweeney, Miss Cavanaugh
and a number OF other young ladies', and
when the guests retired they expressed
themselves as delighted with the hospi-
tality of their hostess and her fair assist
ants

Judge Morgan ]. O'Brien, of New
York, has suddenly come into TN
enviable notoriety by reiterating in a
speech at dinner of the Friendly
Sons of St. Patrick the statement
that "the friendly attitude of Eng
land toward America prevented
the condition of other European
powers against us in our war with
Spain" He is being denounced by
the Irish papers, and has been ex-
PEELED from several Irish organiza-
tons. AS that statement was a
lie emanating from London, and has
been branded as such by the diplo-
matte representatives of the Euro
pean powerf in Washington, backed
up by the reports of American
ministers at the various European
courts, Judge O'Brien certainly de-
serves all the abuse he is receiving
for quoting it in his laudation Of
the English--a queer sort of lauda-
ton for a St. Patrick S day dinner,
ANYHOW.

Mr.. John Wheeler MCGEE has
been appointed by Gov. Bradley
to succeed Judge Thompson, though
his name was not mentioned among
the applicants. The appointment
will doubtless please everybody but
the politicians. Mr.. MCGEE is well
and favorably known among all
classes in the West End, and though
a man of strong convictions is moi
partisan, and has taken no active
part in politics for years, devoting
himself quietly to his practice. He
was an independent candidate fol-
Mayor against P. Booker Reed, who
defeated him.

Right Reverend MonsignoI
Conaty, of the Catholic Uni
versity, Washington, D. c., lee
lures tomorrow night in Detroit,
under the auspices of the Irish So
cieties, on the subject, Influence
of Ireland Upon National Charac-
ter" Our Detroit brethren are to
be congratulated, as Monsignor
Conaty is a learned, able and in
structive speaker, noted for his
thorough knowledge and clear pre-
sanitation of any subject he dis
cusses. Besides, while not lacking
in the least in devotion to Ireland,
he is in full accord with the up-to-
date American ideas and way of
putting old subjects in new shape
and fitting them to the conditions
of today. Such men as Mon
signor Conaty are a credit to their
race and country, and their words
and works live after them.

PLEASANT OCCASION.

The Jacksonville branch of the Catho-
lie Knights of America celebrated the
twentieth anniversary Monday evening

gramme was an interesting one and
greatly pleased the large number present.
The principal address was delivered by
Rev. Father Rock, of this city, in which
he paid glowing tribute to the order,
telling of the great good that had been
accomplished and urging all to make
application and become members at once.

GAME CALLED.
High Standing Predicted for
the Louisville Base
Ball Team.

The opening of the National League
season in this city yesterday was hailed
with delight by all the fans and friends
of the Louisville club. The prospects OF
the team this season are brighter than
ever before, and Louisvillians should
show their appreciation of the pluck OF
the local management by attending the
games and encouraging the boys to wipe
up the earth with the teams controlled by
Brush, Hart and Robson. Only by lib
eral patronage will the club succeed.
Here's hoping they may win the pennant.

In the recent Chicago Mayoralty
campaign there were various
schemes for getting Doodle, " one
of which was the "Celto-Saxor
Union" claiming a membership OF
$50 900 Irish and Irish Americans.
But the Chicago politician is willy
and neither of the campaign COM
mittees would nibble the bait. Mr..
Eckhart, manager of the Republican
committee, said the name Gordon
Murray" given by the Junior"
representative who called on him,
did not sound very Irish. An in
vestigation showed that the "Celto-
Saxon Union of $50, 900 member"
was composed of few Scotchmen,
Englishmen, Canadians-most of
them not even voters-and ward
heelers. The only "Celt" about it
was in the name.

the proposition on condition that a
preliminary conference of the lead
ers be held to discuss the situation,
arrive at a better understanding and
map out some definite line of pro-
ceedure to present with their in
dorsement to the conference. This
suggestion seems to have been ig-
nored, and the Parnellites did not
attend the conference. While their
absence caused disappointment, it
did not cause, what Ireland's enc
mics expected and hoped for, en-
nifty, denunciation and ignoring of
the Parnellites by proceeding to the
work of the conference without
and in defiance of them. The con-
ference, though regretting the dila-
tory action of the Parnellites, did
not doubt their sincerity nor the
wisdom of their request for pre-
liminary conference of the leaders,
for, instead of extending them the
gloved hand they held out the olive
branch, and took the first step in
ignoring party lines and disclaim-
ing all purpose to assume control or
leadership i'll the proposed new
movement or party by adopting
resolutions presented by John Dill
lon and seconded by Michael Davitt,
"regretting the absence of the bulk
of the Parnellites, which it was
pointed out would make reunion
impossible, favoring the reconstitu-
ton of the old Parnellite party as it
existed from 1885 to 1890, and de-
claring readiness, as an earnest of
practical exemplifcation of the
spirit of the anti Parnellites, to
support a Parnellite for first chair
man of the party" The confer
ence then adjourned, subject to call
of the chairman and committee.
This is certainly not as gloomy as
the press dispatches from English
sources made it appear. The spirit
of the conference which prompted
such action can not, and we be-
lieve will not, be other than recipro-
Gated by the Parnellites, and will
lead to conferences among the lead
ers, urged on more earnestly now
than heretofore by their people, that
must remove all objections of the
Parnellites or other parties, or cause
them, if they still decline to join in
the effort for Irish home govern
ment, to be repudiated and aban-
doned to their fate by the people

either desire or by their actions de-
