SPLENDID CELEBRATION OF THE DAY

Everything is in readiness for the cele-
bration of St. Patrick's day, which will
be held at Macauley's Theater tomorrow
night, under the auspices of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians. 1t bids fair to be
the greatest social celebration of the day
ever held in Louisville. The Hon. John
T. Heating, of Chicago, an orator Of
international repute and former National
President of the A. o. H., will be the
central figure in the evenings entertain
meut. Mr.. Heating is a man of striking
appearance and his personal magnetism
only increases his power over an audi
ence. When talking on Irish affairs he
is thoroughly at home. He always has
message to deliver to the Irish-Ameri-
can people and his words are ever well
come.
After the County Board had secured
the services of Mr.. Heating for the occa-
sion the members felt that they would
not be doing their full duty unless the
distinguished orator was made to feel
at home. They wanted to give him
real Irish welcome, to greet him with
Irish music rendered by the best talent
the city affords. James A. McGill, one
of the best known young Irish-Ameri-
cans in the city aud one OF our leading
vocalists, was asked to cooperate with
the County Board in arranging the must
cal programme. Mr.. McGill cheerfully
consented, and to him is due the credit
for securing the able artists who are to
be heard tomorrow night. Every per-
former is trained musician and the
music to be rendered is thoroughly Irish.
The programme is varied with local
solos, quartettes AMI instrumental music.
In short, it is programme that ought
to satisfy the taste of the most fastidious
musical critique.
The entertainment will begin at s
O'Clock aud previous to the formal pro.
gramme Tom Scslly's orchestra will
render the following programme:
Opening march. "Tippera !" FELTON,.

Every member of the order is working
hard to make the celebration success.
The result has been foreshadowed since
the advance sale of seats is larger than at
any previous entertainment given by the
Hibernians. Alderman Owen Tyler, who
is acting Mayor in the absence of Paul c.
Barth, has accepted an invitation to be
present and will occupy a seat on the
stage. A general invitation is extended
to the clergy to be present and many of
them who will not be occupied with their
own services will attend. National
Director George Butler, State President
Keenan,. John NJ, Mulloy and other
active workers in the Hibernian ranks
are enthused over the prospects for
tomorrow night.
Tomorrow morning the members will
approach holy communion.
