THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. TUESDAY, MARCH s 8 ST. DAYID'S MEMORY. A Banquet to the Welshman's Patron Saint Held Last Sight AT THE SEVENTH AVENCE HOTEL. Eloquent Addresses by Prominent burgers and Others. Pitts- IESTEKDAI WITH THE SOCIETY PEOPLE The influence of language and tradition binds more closely than anv tie of affinity that holds together the members of the human family. That is why men. of the same nationality, or who claim descent from an ancestry of a common country, find such rich and pleasin; companionship with each other when they meet either in a foreign country or in some land of their mutual adoption. To talk over the "folk-lore" of the Father land, or sing the songs familiar at the hearthstones of the "old country," have a reminiscent fascination peculiarly tneirown, while the sound of the mother tongue, spoken where another language has domi nant ue and sway, turns back the mental hands of time, and memory, following the suggestions of the once familiar entonations, recalls scenes and faces long buried in the inexorable past. Snch were the thoughts prompted at the ninth annual dinner of the St. David's Be nevolent Society of this city, as 300 mem bers of that organization sat iu the banquet hall of the Seventh Avenue Hotel last even ing to partake of the delicacies In edibles and eloquence so generously provided for that occasion. An decant Banquet Disposed of. Everyone present was either by birth or descent of the "Welsh nationality. At S o'clock the guests, many of whom were ladies, formed in column and marched into the large dining room, and just as each one had been ushered to his place at the table, President Albert J. Edwards, the popular Assistant Postmaster, requested all to be seated. Then it wad that the characteristic of grim determination, historically the pre dominent feature of "Welsh nationalism, as serted itself, and course after course ap peared, only to be vanquished and put to downward flight. The Welsh rare-bit met a fate of total anihilation, even if it did cause some of the fair "Welsli-Americans to flutter in a way that greatly amused those to the manner born. But finally, when due preparation had been made, the genial young President announced the Tout Master D. V. Llewel lyn, whom he characterized as a business ljjan whose "career had not been varied, yet his transactions have been carried on behind a checkered front." The master of the least, being of lew words, promptly introduced "Will L. Jones, to respond to the sentiment, "Oar Absent Guests." The speaker was a otitic man possessing rare magnetism of speech and manner. Jinny Letters of KcjrreL He concluded his short but pleasing ad dress bv reading letters of regret from Judtie Koali Davis, of Xew York; Xovelist AV. G. Howells, President G. B. lloberts, of the Pennsylvania railroad; George Jones, proprietor uf the Xew York Times; Horace .lore, of Topeka. Kan.; Rev. E. C Evans, of llamsen, K. Y.; Horatio Gates Jones, of Philadelphia; Jacob Keese. of Philadel phia; G. H. Humphries, of the TJtica (N. Y.) Mirror; ltcv. "William C. Roberts. P. D., of Lake Forest, Wis.; L. H. Rob erts, Assistant United States Treasurer at Kew York: Rev. 1). Parker Morgan, of Jsew York, and ex-Postniatter Thomas L. James, of Xew York, whom he said were all true Sons of Cambria. The next toast was "Welshlufluence in America." The response was given bv President Al J. Edwards, who made the speech of the evening. He said: As a nation Wales has never been numeric ally strong, tint what it lacked in quantity it made up in qu-ility. The fact that it has been a Small natiun, confined for centuries to a cor ner of an island, entitles it to unlimited praise for the good influence it Lao radiated into the outside world. 1'riiiLiplcs orTratli and Right. Every close and unbiased student of history learns that the ancient Britons Here better schooled in the great principles of truth and individual riglits Uian any other barbarous K.iropcan tube. They liada clearer concep tion of the duties a man owed to society and M hat society owed to the individual as one of US component parts. In electing tbe National Atsnibls. which controlled even the druidical order, not ouly every man, but every r.fiu.u luitub iiutb a vote. s we re quite certain qualifications to exercise the elective franchise, s.. did they, To cast a ballot it was necesar for every man to have a grown beard. T!nasnot exoected of tho women. It was essential, hoever, for tbem to be mar ried. The chief object of Welsh leisl tion was the rights of the individual man."llls home was his castle, and Ins means and aids to gain an hone-t livelihood, undisturbed rights.. "It was unjust m the Uw to unman the man or nni-all the calling" Tho thoughts. ac the gulden thoughts, that led to uuitv of action and became the mainstay of the ancient Britons, in the dark dajs of Druidism, enabled them to maintain their freedom and hold fast to their religion, w-bon all the rest of the d llized w orld had fallen under the sway of Koine. The principles which shielded and sup ported tuem have been wafted across the briny waters anil nave been intern oven into the jaonc oi our government, messing generations jt unborn. Welshmen in American History. When Hnglish oppression threatened to crush tbe ten life blood out of the toeblc colonies, the maitial spirit of the people was stirred and tney arose In their mlgnt to contest for Iheir liberties and their right. Thomas Jefferson, a Welshman by descent, wrote the Declaration or Independence, and regis tered among the immortal signatures to that magna th-rta of tbe American people are the names of 17 men of Weh descent. When the famishing cry of tbe Revolutionary army for the necessaries of life bordered upon mutiny, and the gaunt form of starvation confronted thern. a limited number of patriotic citizens of the Quaker Citv pooled their means and or ganized a bank, which still exists. This eloquent deliverance was followed bv one on "The Day We Celebrate," by Thomas C. Jenkins. Iu the course of his speech he said: We meet once more in commemoration of our patron saint. For centuries nearlv all nationalities have bad some favorite god or goddess some imaginary spirit, perhaps, or some saint that was supposed to watch over them in time of peace, and that protected them in time of war or invasion. Welshmen m Wales, in this and other countries, are meet ing to-night and are fighting over again as it inre tbe battles of old, and perpetuatin" the i cminiscenccz of the past. The Virtue of Charity. Among other virtues attributed to St. David is charity. This Is why so many ot the Welsh societies which are charitable are named in memory of him. We, as Welshmen, or their descendants, are proud of our ancestry which we can trace back unadulterated to a period that antedates profane history, and pride our-i-clies in being descendants of King Arthur and the knights of old immortalized by Ten msnn who forfeited tneir all. otten their lives, that their families, their homes and their country might be preserved. Mr. Jenkins is a deligblful talker and he made many feeling and pleasing references t the celebrations going on in other cities, lie also spoke of the great men Wales had jriven to this country and hinted that there was a probability that recent archaeological discoveries pointed jo a historical fact that Welshmen knew of America heiore the generally accepted date of its discovery. The sudden sickness of Hon. Samuel Grif fith prevented his being present -to respond to "The Future of the Welsh Race." John L. Lewis, ou "Welsh Character and Welsh Mjtters," and Rev. Fred Evan, D. D., the iiitinguished .iud patriarchal looking ISjliU&t minister of Philadelphia, ou "The Ljnd of Our Forefathers," concluded the fcl.ued programme. The national hymn, "Hen Wlad Fy 2ludau," which iu English means "Land of Mv Father," was sung then by all stand ing, and St. David's memory was revived in this city in a fitting and graceful manner by his faithful believers. SOME AMATEUR DRAMATICS That Are to Be t-prunj on the Public in the Near Future. ' Dramatics are contagions, and Pittsburg is having quite an epidemic of them. The latest is the proposed presentation of "The Rivals" by a number of youthful society lads and lassiee!

The cast will include Misses Dora Price, Edith Rankin, Lucy Haworth and Eda Young, and Messrs." Verner Scaife, Scoville, Riddle and Haworth. The young people'have engaged a compe tent coacher and will endeavor to distance the rivals, even to the Tuesday Night Club, of which it might be said it is an offspring. The services of John Sturgeon have been secured Dy the Tuesday Night Club as a "coach" for its next play, and, as Mr. Sturgeon has served(an apprenticeship with Booth, Barrett and Warde, the club is naturally congratulating itself, and predict ing even greater triumph) for the future than it has gained in the past.

DR. BRIGGS' TEACHINGS. Indiana Presbyterians Want the Minister Called to Account. Cihcinnati, March 2. Rev. W. H. James, Chairman of the Committee on Er rors iu the Church, to-day offered in the Cincinnati Presbytery a petition, to be pre sented to the next General Assembly, re citing that in a syllabus of an address apon assuming a chair in a theological seminary of the church, such expressions were used as were apparently rash and un guarded, erroneous in their tendency, and calculated to unsettle faith in their inspira tion, genuineness and infallibility of the Scripture. The petition asked the Gen eral Assembly to lake such action as would preserve the peace, purity and prosperity of the church. The professor referred to was Rev. Dr. Charles Briggs, of the Union Theological Seminary of New York. The petition was laid on the tabl? until tbe next meeting of the Presbytery. One member of the Presbyterv stated that since tbe publication of Dr. Briggs' views his Bible class of 40 young men had dwindled to a mere handiul, so marked was tbe skep tical views in Dr. Briggs' teachin; .

Fox monu mental boldness iind presumption two tramps that have come to tbe knowledge of Robert Clark, who lives near Fallsington, Bucks county, arB certainly unsurpassed. Mr. Clark journeyed away a few miles to visit his aick wife and left his residence un occupied. But it bore no resemblance to a deserted homestead when the firmer set eyes upon It on his return. Mr. Clark en tered. Every bureau drawer was on tbe floor, as were its contents, every whiehway. There was hardly a piece of furniture standing ou its four legs. But the greatest surprise awaited the mister's eyes in the kitchen. The fire had been lighted, the table set, and there were the dishes holding the remains of a banquet that had evidently offered the best the cupboard could afford. He went upstairs and there in hi. search he came to a door that was locked. He knocked, a voice answered, and forthwith he was admitted. Imagine his horror at beholding two tramps in luxurious repose upon his best bed. It look Mr. Clark but a minute to hustle them out, and then he telegraphed for the constable of Morrisville. The filthy twain were tnken before 'Squire Wright and sent by himtoDoylestown jail. Mr. Clark believes those two tramps had gone into housekeeping to stay, or for at least as long as bntter. eggs and other edi bles lasted, and that had he arrived on the scene a little later his rights of ownership would have been unalterably pre-empted. TO BUILD BIG AIRSHIPS. Ten Fer Cent of 82,000,000 Raised by tho Mt. Carmel Aeronautic Society. Chicago, March 2. It was an nounced to-day at a meeting of the Mt.
