1t is understood that Mr.. Lloyd

delegates at 10 Downing street, Tues

The role of the Premier at these

"To the average Englishman Mr..
Murphy is only name, but to those

years, he represents power. He sat
for division of Dublin from 'S5-1S92,
when tiring of parliamentary life, he
went back to Ireland to throw him

considerable magnitude.

Mr.. Lloyd George, it is stated, is

Lead 36-Year Fight.
John Edward Redmond has been
fighting for home rule in Ireland for
the last thirty-six years, and though
the last days of his life saw dissen.

and scorn from the Sim Fein, he was
the champion of Ireland to the last,
and his name will find it's place in
history.
The Irish convention, created las,
July to devise system of govern
ment for the Emerald Isle, sent Red
,nond a message of sympathy only a
few days ago, hoping he would quick
ly recover.
Redmond, as chairman of the Irish
Nationalists, had helped to bring
about the organization of this con-
vention He had rejected Lloyd
Georges proposition for partitioning
the island; and then the plan for the
calling in of all the Irish factions
to settle their differences, to get to-
gether and work out a constitution
that would be agreeable to all, was
announced and accepted. Redmond
was delegate to this convention, and
his followers pinned their faith for
a solution of all old Erin's troubles
on him.

American and Irish patriotic senti-

Ramsey county Hibernians at Hiber-
nian hall on Monday evening, March
4. The two-fold objective-the dedi-
cation Of the service flag and The men,
Orial celebration of the Robert Emmett

large and enthusiastic gathering, and
full justice was done to both features
of the program. State President II. j.
Doyle opened the proceedings with a
short but animated speech of welcome
which abounded in patriotic spirit, and
was received with hearty acclaim.
The principal address of the evening
was made by Hon. G.. ID. O'Brien, for
mer mayor of St. Paul. 1t was fully
up to the reputation of this distin.
guished speaker and stirred his audi.
tors to the highest pitch of patriotic
enthusiasm. Among the many inter.

O'Brien's instructive discourse was
that the Irish people in America and
elsewhere had never lost their spirit.

never failed to attain to the high

and in military affairs. They have not
sacrificed their great spiritual ideals
for the undue accumulation of mere
wealth and property, but have rather
bent their greatest energies to those
activities and studies which make for
the general advancement Of mankind.
Mr.. O'Brien was greeted with salvos
of applause at the conclusion of his
mastery effort.
The dedicatory ode which was com
posed and read by John Fitzpatrick,
evoked hearty and prolonged applause.

St. Joseph's church, San Jose, was
again crowded last Sunday night to
hear Father Kavanagh, S. j., deliver
his second of the Lenten Sunday eve
ming lectures on Christian Science
and a Christian Sense"
Father Kavanagh's Introductory to
his able lecture was a reference to
the letter published in the Mercury
Herald, February 21, 1918, and signed
by Peter V. Ross, a Christian Scien-
tist. He expressed his regret that
Mr.. Ross had not heard the first lee
ture, because the very arguments
used by this worthy representative
of Christian Science had been thor
oughly stated and analyzed.
"It is fair to assume" writes Mr..
Ross, "that the learned lecturer has
himself mastered the mystery of mat
ter, else he could hardly undertake
to show the fallacy of other peoples
ideas concerning it.
physicists and chemists will re-
joice at his accomplishment, for the
real nature of matter has thus far
evaded them, ETC."
Father Kavanagh's rejoinder was
in substance as follows: 1t is not
only fair but fattering to assume
that l have mastered the mystery of
matter" and it would indeed be very
gratifying to the physicists and chem
lists to learn that l had explained
what they have thus far failed to ex-
plain, "the real nature of matter"
but there was no call for such an
assumption, and the physical scien-
lists may be disappointed to learn
that did not say single word about
"the nature of matter"
