EveIeth Hibernians.

L
Division No. 2, A. o. H. of Eveleth,-
st. Louis county, is making good
progress. The division correspondent
sends the Irish Standard the follow
ing account of recent happenings in the
society at that place:
ION Wednesday evening, the Both Of
March, our regular meeting was held:
with President L. G.. Fuller in the
chair. All went lovely as usual until
it came to new business. Then Presi-
dent Fuller told the brothers that he
had sold out his interest in the grocery
business Of which he was partner
and that he was going out to the coast
and would have to tender his resigna-
ton as president. 1t was quite shock
to the brothers present as all the
members looked up to President Fuller
as lthder in our cause. He was al
ways active for the good Of the di-
vision. While we wish him success
in his new undertaking, we feel that
his going away is our loss. The BROTH
ers always had the greatest confidence
in President Fuller and all feel that
they have gained thereby, as he was
one Of those workers who never tired
of trying to advance the cause Of the
order. Division No. 2 is most heartily
sorry and hope to hear in the near
future that our former president,
Brother Fuller, and family will have
their full measure Of prosperity. We
then proceeded to elect president,
Peter Cosgrove, our late vice-president,
being elected after Brother Thomas
Murphy declined the office. President
Cosgrove is the chief Of Police at
Sparta, Mimi, about two miles from
Eveleth, but never misses meeting,
and as Brother Dan Harrington says,
If he will handle the gavel as he
handles the club the boys will have to
come to time whether they like it or
not. President Cosgrove is a well-built
1rishman, standing six feet three inches
and weighing considerably over two
hundred pounds and being only 20
years Of age he is whole souled in the
cause. Another great worker for Dr.
vision No. 2 is visiting brother, P. e.
Murphy of St. Paul. He is the popular
clothing man Of Eveleth and when not
on the road travelling always makes ii
point to give us few stirring re.
marks as none that have visited us can
do better unless it be that we draw the
line on that great hustler the president
of the Insurance Fund, Robert j.
Clarke. We will never forget his mas,
terpfece that he delivered here in Mo-
vember. The weather has been against
us this winter but we are about to
start out now under our new president
and stir up little for the good of the
Irish and of the A. o. H., as the wealth
er becomes more favorable. Another
very prominent brother is the Hon.
Z. %. Bowling, who was one Of the
best representatives this district ever
had in the legislature, and as near as
can learn will be there again, as it
seems his name is common to all class.
es of voters even as early as this date,
We meet every other Wednesday at
Monitor hall and would like to have
any travelling brothers visit us. we
expect to win one of those Worlds
Fair prizes and be represented at the.
national convention, so you will see
that Division No. 2 is still alive. Visit
ing brothers, you will kindly call on us
when you visit our town. You will
find the brothers here always alive to-
the latest in our line. Another 1 wish
to thank for many past favors is John
Mahoney, the state insurance secretary.
who has helped us more than space
here will allow to explain; we thank
him very much. Also Brother John
Flood of Duluth, who has visited us
several times. Division No. 2 is now
going to be up and doing. Thanking
you in advance, 1 remain yours frater--
nally, w. E. MOYLAN.
