HIBERNIAN CELEBRATION.
In Honor of George H. Sheehan of BOs-
ton Last Evening.

George II Sheehan Of Boston, New
England organizer for the A @, H.
and editor of The Hibernian, who is on
a speaking tour through the New Eng
land states for the purpose of arousing
the members of the different divisions
to greater activity in increasing the
membership rolls, gave an address at
the X of G.. hall last night on the
rise OF the Irish race in America and
on the work which the Hibernians are
doing and expect to do in the future
There was a good attendance of the
Barre Hibernians and Of tile members
Of the ladies auxiliary and the re-
marks of the speaker were thoroughly
enjoyed Dancing followed the adj
dress, music being furnished by Bruee's
orchestra
Mr.. Sheehan began by relating the
reasons why so many of the Irish race
have come to this country and OF their
struggle to gain living and right
full standing among the American citi-
zens He said that many an Irishman,
who came here young man and start
cd laying railroad ties, had, by his nat
ural ability and trustworthiness worked
up to position Of honor in the same
road. for which he was once laying ties,
and there are instances where he has
become president of the road The
Irish immigrants, he declared, were not
like the immigrants from other coun-
tries because they were driven out OF
their country by oppressive government
rule and were practically exiles He
said they were perfectly satisfied to
stay in their own beautiful land had
it been possible to live there.
The Hibernian order. he said, was
started in Ireland 360 years ago at the
time that Ireland was having its most
direful period The first order insti-
tuted in this country was in 1886 at
New York and il has since grown stead
ily and is acknowledged to be a great
help to the Roman Catholic church and
to the building up of good citizenship
in this country. 1t is the purpose OF
the Hibernian order, he asserted, to
take Young Irishmen into its member
ship at the time they were about to
90 out into the world from their
homes, for in this order they find an
atmosphere the most like that of their
homes that can be found in any fra
ternal organization in the world. Here
they are taught to be useful and re-
liable American citizens.
The Hibernians in the last 20 years
have expended fifteen million dollars in
sick benefits and has given fifty thous-
and to the Catholic college in Wash
ington besides paying the tuition to
two students from each state in the
union who gain admission to the col
lege after competitive examination
