Speeches by Prominent Men From

Commissioner GIenn's Advocacy OF

OF the many pleasant events which
have marked the history Of the Hibernian
Society few have been conducted with
greater eclat and none with more salts
faction to those concerned than its eighty
eighth anniversary at the De Soto last
night
A more congenial gathering and one in
which those present felt themselves more
thoroughly in sympathy with the occa-
sion would have been hard to find. The
entertainment of the inner man was ex-
cellent, but that of the intellectual man
was far more so. Gifted speakers followed
each other in rapid succession and dis
tuSStu "A Wlue variety OF SUBJECTS. w II anu
wisdom We'd with railery and seriousness
in turn, toast and response, song and
story all added to the variety of the enter
tainment, while the ardent devotion to the
cause of Ireland was only rivaled by the
fervent patriotism with which the name
of America was greeted. 1t was a night to
be remembered for it's genial good fellow
ship and its generous prodigality of good
things, both intellectual and material, and
one which will not soon be forgotten by
those who had the good fortune to par
ticipate in its festivities.
The members of the society, and their
guests assembled in the lobby of the ho-
tel shortly before o'clock. Half an hour
later the guests We're in their seats at the
banquet table.
The decorations were palms and smilax,
with the American colors forming a back
ground behind the presidents chair and
the banner of the society suspended above
the center of his table.

THE spH1NxEs REMOVED.
Forsyth Park Loses One of Its Most
Striking Features.

The ancient sphinxes which have guard
ed the entrance to Forsyth Park are no
longer in their accustomed places. By
order of Park Commissioner Ellis these
two symbols of old world mystery were
removed yesterday morning from the po-
sitons which they have SO long occupied
and conveyed 10 the junk department of
the Park and Tree Commission at the hot
house on Barnard street
The removal will occasion some surprise
and doubtless protest The sphinxes have
occupied their commanding position at the
entrance to the park for so long that they
might almost have been regarded as the
tutelary divinities of that spot. They
undoubtedly did hold a place ia the aftec-
tomato regard of many citizens whose first
remembrance of these figures reaches
back TO the time when as little tots they
were taken into the park by their nurses.
Chairman Dafiu OF the Park and Tree
Commission in speaking of the matter,
said that the sphinNes were showing the
effects of age so greatly that the commits
sion had decided that it would be well TO
remove them. What the storms and trosts
of many winters had not been able to ac-
comphsh had been done by the iueverent
small boy who, finding cracks and crew
ices developing, had widened these for the
Pun kiSSt VI luHeItlIA his Nltl lolllil9 N'tiAC+i
peppers, by means Of which latter agcn-
cies he had effectively destroyed the beau
ty Of the images
Chairman Dafiin, when asked if II were
not possible to repair the images so that
they might continue to stand guard al the
entrance 10 the park, said that he did not
think this could be done. "They are of
cast IRON he said land I think the dam
age is irreparable. Besides l do not con-
slider that the sphinXes were especially
appropriate ornaments for the entrance 10
the park. BY their removal the entrance
will be made much broader and a better
effect will be given to the view from Bull
street Then il Will afford an opportunity
for some philanthropist TO present the
city with some suitable ornament for the
entrance to the park"
1t is likely that there are good many
people who will disagree with Chairman
Daffin as to the appropriateness Of the
sphinXes as ornaments for the park en-
trance. Mayor Myers disapproves of
their removal. So does Judge Fallgant
and other prominent citizens to whom the
matter was mentioned. 1t may be that
the commission will be requested to look
more closely into the question of restoring
the old guardians of the park in order that
they may be returned to the posts which
they have filled so long and so honorably.

Capture or destroy Montejo's fleet" was

most remarkable naval battle ever fought.

Prof. Mehrtens' Challenge to TheO-
dOre Thomas.

An incident of the Thomas Orchestra
concert at the Theater last night was Prot.
Leo W. Mehrtens little postlude, in which
he publicly notified Mr.. Thomas that he
had insulted the audience by playing
Strauss Blue Danube waltz after Han
dels famous Largo"
Prof. Mehrtens delivered his message to
Mr.. Thomas and the audience from one of
the boxes just as the last notes of
TschaikoWsky' Italenne Capriccio had
ceased. Mr.. Thomas smiled, but made NJ
reply. Neither did the audience, which
also smiled.
The Strauss number had been play
ed as an encore by request and
Mr. Thomas was not responsible for its in
PRODUCTION in the otherwise strict
Iy classical programme, had he
wished to make any explanation in reply
to Prof Mehrtens. The audience had en-
joyed and applauded the melodious Blue
Danube" and that was all it cared about
it. Prof. Mehrtens' opinion as to the i'm
propriety of inserting it in a classical con-
cert resulted in his public challenge of
the famous directors judgment of his au-
dience Prof Mehrtens insisted after the
concert that Mr.. Thomas owed the audi
ence, himself and the art of music an
apology for what he had done
The incident was a source of a good
deal of amusement.
Prof. Mehrtens was insistent and evil
IDENTIFY in earnest in his criticism of the
directors choice of an encore piece, but
as neither Mr.. Thomas nor the audience
were inclined to take the matter seriously
he was soon lost to sight and sound.
