Burke called the meeting to order. There
were about 200 men in the ball. but n
curious feature Of the meeting was the
rumor which got about that Mr.. Burke
had previously let II be understood among
the striking lumber workers that there
was to be something discussed OF inter-
est to tho strikers. The strikers formed
the largest part Of the gathering and
many left the hall when they found that
nothing relating to the strike was to be
considered. One Of tho strikers said
that Mr.. Burke had been NJ the labor

tiers OF vital importance to the strikers
were to be considered and that Mr.

THE BANUET.
The companions and their wives and
friends entered the dining-roo shortly
before nine o'clock. The menu. both IN
point OF excellence and of service, was
one that would be credit to any house,
and called forth much favorable COM
ment. A feature of the program Of
courses was Loyal Legion Salad Mayor

furnished by Michael Romeo's popular
orchestra.
Commander Cushman presided at the

1T was my privilege to know the ad-

all through the civil war, his services
were not conspicuous. His chief naval
work was that Of a technical expert. In
the course Of which he had q part In the
| building Of 20 ships Of our navy. His

| The speaker traced briefly the early

wildly the expedition Of 9-lSsO. when
an effort was made to discover the
North Pole through Boring straits. work
| ing on the theory that the warmer water
from the Japan current would bring
about climatic conditions more favorable
for reaching the goal. Tho long imprison-
ment Of q months, the final sinking OF

wearisome journey OF tho returning sur

Darling narrated with much power. IT
was the experience Of this party that led
Nansen to attempt to drift across the
region Of the pole.
Mr. Darling told with especial impress
siveness of the trying Journeys made by
| Melville when, worn out by terrible and
Idsheartening experiences in the Arctic
he twice tried to reach and rescue his
starving companions.
| Admiral Melville was OF that old

the speaker, touching upon the charac ter
and personality of tho explorer. Tho ad-
dress closed with n forceful portrayal
