Twentieth Anniversary of his Death
Commemorated in Boston
August 10th.
Universal Sorrow Marked the End
of his Promising
Career.


10TH the twentieth anniversary of the
death of John Boyle O'Reilly was
commemorated by meeting of the
John Boyle O'Reilly Club, of which
Hon. A. Shuman is president Nearly
all the invited guests were friends Of
John Boyle O'Reilly.
Mr.. Shuman, who was an intimate
friend Of the distinguished Irishman,
delivered an eloquent address in which
he drew attention to the universal
esteem in which O'Reilly was held.
He said in part:
Twenty years ago today the whole
country was shocked by the news of
the death of John Boyle O'Reilly. From
North and South, East and West, a
cry of sorrow and mourning went up
that the voice of the great poet was
suddenly stilled, and that no more from
his fertile brain and facile pen would
ever brought comfort and inspiration
to the heart that gave them resting
place.
And not alone in this country of his
adoption was heard the voice of la
mentation. Erin-mother of SORROWS
drew her sable mantle more closely
about her, and wept for her exiled son
who had loved her with such tender
and unselfish devotion, and given of
his best for the advancement of her
cause; and all over the world, wher-
ever men knew and loved the name of
Liberty, echoed the sounds Of grief and
distress.
But while the world bemoaned his
untimely fate, the friends who loved
him and who rejoiced in his friend
ship and companionship, felt within
their hearts the keen, two-edged sword
of undying sorrow and bereavement.
1t is unnecessary for me to recall to
you all the sadness of that dark hour,
when it seemed to us that the whole
universe was clouded by the sombre
pail Of affection.
My own acquaintance with him ex-
tended back over twenty years-bacl1
to the first year of his coming to Bos-
ton; and in those twenty years, the
admiration I had first entertained for
him. as l fell under the spell of his
magnetic individuality, his infectious
and inspiring enthusiasm, his loyalty,
his friendliness, his wonderful sympa-
thetic humanness-ripened into true
love and affection that grew stronger
with the passing years.
since our first meeting and twenty
years since, as his brother poet, James
Whitcomb Riley, so beautifully ex-
presses it,
with CHEEKY smile and wave of
the hand
He wandered into an unknown land,
his beautiful. resonant voice rings down
through the dim vista of the past, as
true and clear as when the world was
young to him and to me. and the af-
fectionate clasp of his hand seems as
warm and sincere now as then. And
so, in his own tender words, I
THANK God for one dead friend,
With face still radiant with the light
of truth,
Whose love comes laden with the scent
of youth
Through twenty years Of DEATH"
How prophetic, how divine, how APP
plicable to himself. are these beauti-
full lines after twenty years have gone
since he passed away!
What his passing meant to mankind
is shown by the outpopring of SYM
pathy and sorrow from good and great
men in honor of this poet and patriot
whom we So love and revere.

the gardens in Dublin, Cork. Killarney

the gardens in Dublin, Cork, Killarney
and Navan, and can speak from per-
sonal experience of the splendid work
that they. are doing.
In Navan field was rented by the
Vincent de Paul Society; it was
ploughed, MANFRED, and all was in
readiness for the tenants in little more
than week. The field was divided
into twenty plots and a single plot
given to each tenant at a yearly rate
of Is Cd. In the first year the plots
were planted mainly with potatoes.
The average yield was about II bar
rels for each plot. Every one con-
cerned was delighted with the result,
and some 20 families were thus pro-
vided with food for the ensuing win
ter.
At the end Of the field demonstra-
ton plot was provided by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. The second year
started with Al tenants, and the re-
suits were even more encouraging.
Last summer l visited the gardens
in Cork and Killarney. They were
started only last year. and l must
confess l was scarcely prepared to see
such excellent results achieved in so
short a time. In Killarney the gardens
owe their existence to the splendid and
almost unaded energy and enterprise
of one single individual who rented
field of four acres. This he had
ploughed into ridges and divided off
into about thirty plots, each of which
was placed under the charge of a
family, who planted 1t with vegetables
and paid certain annual rent in
weekly installments. When | saw it,
the field was growing some of the fin
err with cabbage and some other vege-
tables.
! In conclusion. it is scarcely neces-
sary to point out the many advan-
tages, in addition to providing means
of livelihood, that arise from this
Workingmen's Gardens scheme. They
withdraw the parents and their fam
| lily from the slums of the city and the
dangerous attractions of the public
house out into the healthier outskirts
! of the city. From this point Of view
of health alone these gardens are all
lincomparab blessing-to the young
er children especially. Furthermore,
they tend to foster spirit of enter
prise. industry and independence, and
change the lounging, idle beggar Of the
into an Industrious and self respect
ing citizen. They teach the children
habits of industry, instead of their
learning. as they so often do. to beg
and become. like their parents, street
loungers and hangers around public
house corners. Moreover, this form Of
relief multiplies itself and is perma-
nent, whereas other kinds Of charity,
once the money is spent. leave behind
them no lasting result, save at times,
unfortunately degradation and demor-
alization on the part of those who re-
ceive it. Finally besides being the
most beneficial and permanent, it is
also the most economic form of char
! ity If properly worked it may be-
come practically self supporting.
