by DR.. Jeffrey c. O'Connell last night, be-
fore a large audience of Washington

League. The meeting was held in Car
roll Institute and was probably the most
successful of the present season.
Dr. O'Connell described the source OF
all languages, the roots of which he said
were so natural as 10 be identified with
the infant stages of humanity. The
gradual formation Of words from age to
age, he asserted. as the needs for man to
express more fully his thoughts was the
pure and primal history of human
thought.
Language is a picture of human ma
ture," he declared, .'of the gradual de-
velopment of mind. IL is human nature
reflected in mirror and is the most SUBJ
stantial link connecting the past with the
present. The study of languages instills
i'm the mind lofty thoughts and brings
into play the more sublime sensibilities
of mans nature.
In tracing the origin of Celtic. DR..
OConnell showed by word examples a
striking similarity between it and the
French, Spanish. Italian and Aryan Ian
gnages.
Others who delivered short addresses
were Michael Lynch, DIR. r. J. Byrne

Many Wharves Along the Potomac
River Deserted Yesterday.

Intense interest was taken in yesterdays
elections. particularly In Maryland. by the
dwellers along the river, and everybody
went to the polls. not only TO vote. but to
work for the candidates and policies they
favored. The officers of the river steam
ers making landings at points on the
Maryland side of the river state that in
many cases wharves were entirely de-
serted. not only by the throng that was
always on hand TO meet the steamers, but
by wharf owners and agents as well.
Men who had never before failed to meet
the boat. even i'm times OF national cleo
tions. were absent from their usual
heunts yesterday and could have been
found at the voting places roofing nard
for the success of their party ticket.
On the Virginia side of the river the in
