Of the action of the convention was
made by Joseph G. Cannon, Speaker Of
the House Of Representatives, On their

lily, the house guests and some of the
distinguished visitors were assembled
ON the veraDda, a majority Of those
in attendance gathered on the lawn
facing the veranda.
When Speaker Cannon rose to deliv-

greeted with applause. At the close of
Mr., Cannon's address the President adj

THE ORDER M0URNS.
Death of an Esteemed Irish Brother
In Cork


In the death the other day, from in
juries received in driving accident,
of Brother j. ID. Burke, for more than
half a century member of the Order
of Irish Christian Brothers, and for
nearly the whole of that period asso-
ciated with the work of the brother
hood in the city Of Cork, there passed
away one of the most esteemed teach
ers and workers in the service of the
Church III Ireland. The loss sustained
by the order of which he was a men,
Der and the high place he occupied in
the affections Of the general public
have been manifested in an eXtraOrdin-
ary manner. Action on his death has
been taken by nearly every public
body in Cork and vicinity, beginning
with the town council, which met un-
der the presidency of the lord mayor,
listened to speeches by the principal
city officials, passed formal resolu-
ton of sympathy and adjourned as n

Brother Burke was the real pioneer of
that technical education which has
come to be recognized as prime neces-
sity for the future well-being of Ire
land. Other speakers paid high tri-
butte to Brother Burke's extensive
knowledge, high scientific attainments
and genial and kindly manner that
commanded the respect and regard Of
all classes.
Brother Burke's obsequies were of a
notable character. On Friday evening,
March 25th, the remains were removed
from the North Monastery chapel,
where they had lain since Wednesday
evening. The procession made it's way
from the monastery grounds, through
St. Mary's road and on to the cathedral
gates, amidst dense mass of people,
and after the remains had been placed

managed to arrange and pursue with
earnestness some studies in psychol-
ogy, which have laid the foundation
| for work which will, I think, present
that subject in a new light. One Of the
books in the prison library was Mil
ton. 1 committed to memory a great
number Of passages from the various
poems. also managed to compose a
novel, the subject Of which had haunt
ed my thoughts for many years.
You must not imagine from this that
l was allowed writing materials. I
was compelled to write my book, so
to speak, in my head. Having COM
posed my novel and not knowing when
l would be released, and being ull-
willing to see my work lost, 1 formed
the habit Of memorizing the whole
work, page after page. there being
about 10000 words. Every day, even
while making mats and performing
other prison duties, I pracHced COM
mitting the book to memory, and
also worked on a system of mnemon-
les, or aid to memory, which 1 con-
trived for the purpose of remembering
data OH scientific works, as, for i'll
stance, astronomical and physiological
facts.
After a time 1 found this mental ex-
ercise became almost mechanical, and
it did not interfere with my manual
tasks. l am rather inclined to think,
however, that I was not the best of
workmen, and that 1 did not perform
the allotted amount Of prison work.
| However, I cannot say that my stay
in prison affected me mentally or
physically. l made up my mind to
olstract my thoughts from my actual
condition by mental exercises such as
1 have outlined to you. Since coming
out 1 have written the novel which l
composed in JAIL and have already
begun other works which had
planned.
Had not taken up this work, and
distracted myself wholly, might have
given way to depression at times, for
was kept in darkened cell, with Il
regime of ill-feeding and perpetual
silence. I was determined not to allow
my enemies the satisfaction of think
ing for an instant that they had af-
fected my energy or broken my spirit.
I lost little in weight, but the effects
are now scarcely perceptible; and l
really feel quite as well physically
and mentally as ever felt in my life.
AS to my plans for the future, they
are not entirely decided upon. 1 have
thought of going to America and de.
voting the rest Of my days to certain
scientific work-perhaps in California.
l love the American people, and my
heart leaps whenever see the stars
aid stripes. I wish to take this op-
portunity Of thanking the American
people for their kind sympathy to me
in my troubles. My feeling for the
country is almost too deep to be ex.
pressed in words.

Forthcoming Hibernians Martyrology.

In reference to the first sitting of
the Dublin diocesan tribunal to sift
the historical and other evidence re-
garding the martyrs, who suffered for
the faith in Ireland from 1910 to 1907,
it may be of interest to mention that
the list is very extensive, and includes
Irish bishops, priests, and lay persons
Of both sexes, put to death in Ireland
under Henry VIII, Elizabeth, Crom-
well, the .,tuarts, and King William.
Through the eXertions Of his eminence,
Cardinal Moran, this list has been pre-
pared, and the reasons are such as to
justify a strong claim in favor Of their
beatification in the near future. AS
far back as the year 1861, while vice
rector of the Irish college in Rome,
Cardinal Moran published Life Of
the Venerable Oliver Plunket, as pre-
liminary to having the cause Of the
martyred primate Of Armagh heard by
the proper tribunal in Rome. The full
last of those Irish martyrs whose
claims are now being considered (prior
to the collected evidence being for.
warded to the holy see) was published
by his grace, the archbishop of Dub
lin, in the "Irish Ecclesiastical Record"
for January, 1903. The two last who
died confessors in Ireland were Father
O'Colgan, in 1904, and Father Mac
Dowcll, in 1907, both DOminicans.

The populists of Lamar county,
Texas, are models of activity. II every
county in the United States had as
many energetic men working in behalf
of populism, there would be little
doubt about the election of Watson
and Tibbles this year. From report
received at headquarters, it appears
that club was organized at Ashland
school house in the seventh election
precinct of Lamar county on the 18th
day of October with twenty-five char
ter members. The officers of the club
are as follows: Chairman. M. l..

What is n nLemon TangleaY

AZ everybody knows "socie.y affairsn
(Sam Jones calls them 'Sassiesy af-
%fairs") were never published ia the
Charleston newspapers until a fow
years ago when the Charleston Post in
its rude way "butted"i in with a column
devoted to such functions. Later the
Columbia State beganto exploit them.
These were the boldeshnot say most pro-
fame, feats ever undertaken and these
papers held the belt jointly until Col,
9ounghusband invaded tho sacred ciy
of L'Hassa ten days ago-which is an
other though similar story. Meanwhile
Charleston has always had the reputa-
ton of being conservative even to the
freezing point In social matters.
However, we observe in tho society
columns OF both The Post and The
State that the "Y. w. G. A." of Char
lesion has ''indulged in" % successful
"lemon tangle." We believe the society
peop'e of Laurens would like to know
what may be u "lemon tangle." We
inquired Of one of our gentlemen
friends but he promptly pleaded igno,
rance remarking that it reminded him
Ola "whiskey sour" At all events,
We deom this matter Of some public
import and we shall be obliged when

The State explain what the Ingredients
