Last Saturday the grounds and buildings of
the Irish Industrial Exhibition at the Worlds FAIR
were thronged with crowds of people anxious TO
participate in the demonstration which marked the
opening of Irelands first. exposition OF her pro-
ducts in foreign land. There was mistaking
the national character of the project Floating
proudly, between the Stars and Stripes and the
Louisianan colors, was the green banner OF Erin
emblazoned with the golden harp 1t was not the
usual Italian instrument seen on IRISH Hhags'
either The harp was as truly Celtic as the genus
which inspired it. No British ensign was there.
Over the Irish house of parliament, St tawrence's
gate Blarney castle and even better still, the I'M
mense building devoted the industries and arts,
there was but one foreign banner the Irish hag.
The crowd was representative one, Ulgnl-
taries of the church. United States senators, con-
gressmen and civic officials mingled with an assem-
blage in which were Irishmen who held high place
in the world of commerce and science. All were
happy Their motherland was sending forth dis
play which made their hearts beat high with pride,
and they were there to hail the dawn of new era
in Irish national life.
The dedication ceremonies were held in the
theatre. Nearly 1900 people we're present On
the stage were his grace, the Most Rev. John j.
Glennon, Archbishop of st. Louis Hon. David R.
Francis, president of the Louisiana Purchase En-
position; Hon. Rolla Wells. mayor of st. Louis; t.
?. Gill; secretary of the department of agriculture
and technical instruction for Ireland; Rev. Timothy
Dempsey Thomas I. Hanley, president of the Irish
Exhibit company; Hon. Thomas Carter of Montana,
president of the United States commission; Edward
Hearn, Supreme Knight of the knights of Co
lumbus; I. w. Roleston and j. Cliborn Hill of
Dublin together with many prominent priests and
laylnen.
Mr.. Edward Devoy opened the proceedings with
a short address In which he reviewed the objects
of the meeting, and he called upon Rev. Timothy
Dempse- state chaplain of the A. o. H., to invoke
blessing on the enterprise. The entire audience
arose and profound silence ensued during which
Fathr Dempsey eloquenty besought blessing from
the Most High on Ireland and hce industries. Adj
dresses were then made by Hon. Rolla Wells and
Hon. David R. Francis in which these gentlemen
paid high tribute to the Irish Exhibition and to Mr.
Hanley, It's promoter. Mr.. Francis said he con-
sidered the Louisiana Purchase Exposition the
most universal of any that had ever been held, in
asmueh that it had the first distinctively Irish In
dustrial Exposition that had been organized. He
was astonlshed at the richness and extent of the
varied industries here displayed, and felt that the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition was under debt
Of gratitude to Ireland for giving it an exhibit
which was one of tfs most interesting features Of
the grounds.
