The (Irst of the live lectin es compris
ing the St. Thomas' college lecture
com se wus given In the college hall
last night befoie an nudlence number
ing neatly 1,000 persons. J lev. D. .T.
MaeOoldtlck was the lectmer, and his
subject "Iilsh Chat actor Deseilbed by
11V.V. D. J. MAC GOLDIHCK. .
Iilsh Hoets." The acquaintance which
the learned piesldent ot St. Thomas'
has with both the poetry and people of
ll eland coupled with his lemaiknble
eloquence and lendy wit belltted him
pectillnily ns may be leadlly believed
to tieat this subject In a most elabor
ate, Instinctive and entertaining man
ner, ,
His nigument was that to llnd the
tine destilption of Iilsh chaiacter one
cannot do better than except the por
tiayal as made by the Iilsh poets, who
saw It, felt it and possessed It and
well able by leason of their acknowl
edged talents to depict it vividly, thor
oughly nnd tiuly for the enlightenment
of otheis In exempllllcatlon of this
contention he pioposed vailous pte
domlnant cliniat tellstlcs of the Iilsh
man's cluuai ter and then ga e the im
pulsions of it that one poet or another
oi In some cases seveial had lecoided
For Instance, in elucidating the veiy
piomineht tialt or the son of lhiu
line of native land he i celled James
Oil's "Tin- ti Ishmiiu;" Tom Moore's
"The Iilsh Peasant to His MIstiess,"
and "llemembei Thee; D'Aiey Mo
dee's "Am I llemembei ed In Hi In,"
and "The Hll's Devotion." nnd a num
ber of otliei aptly chosen wi Kings.
his i.nvn of LimntTv.
In this lunnnei he depicted the Illsh
inan's yeainlug lor his native land
his love of llbeity nnd hatred ot tyi
laniiy, his fidelity to 1 1 eland even In
defeat, the Tilslnnan and the landloid,
the Illsluiian's s mpathy, giatltude,
unselllshness, the Iilshnian's altiulsm.
.the Iilshmnn In love, the Iilshnian's
devotion to "SoKgaith Aioon" and the
lilshman In dissension.
Among the poets quoted fiom besides
those named above weie Denis Floience
Mac Club.,. Thomas Davis, John Iioyle
O'Reilly, John Savage, Hllon Maty
Downing, Alfied Terceval draves,
Samuel Lovei, Chailes J. Lever, Thos.

If Father Mar OoldiioU's leaching of
these gems of Iilsh verse was the onlv
eiiteitnlnment pi offeied the nudltois
would have ha I a dellijlitlill evening.
Hut this, without any disparagement
to his declamatoiy poweis was a sec
ondary mattei. Tile chief l'eatuie was
his happy manner ot making applica
tion of the poet'i thoughts. No matter
what the piopo-dtlon in hand might be
he had leady foi its elnboiatmu a

The "hold up" of the telephone ordin
ance and the losultantnvestlgatlon by
the boaul of Hade's legislation and
taxes committee has hi ought out two
facts; That theie was Ho Intentional
hold-up and that the Centiul Tele
phone company will piobubly within a
short time have a competitor In this
city of the lightning's Hush.
The committee held n second meeting
yestudny afternoon. At the meeting
Monday, Assistant Supeiintendeiit R
J, Maloney made a statement which
flood his company Horn any Intimation
that It was Inteileilng with the giant
Ing of fialichiwes by councils to the
new company.
Yostei dnv's meeting was al ranged so
that the new company could make a
statement. Theie weie but two com
mitteemen piesent at the sitting,
Cliuliniun II. 12. Paine and Pied J
Wldlnayer. Coin ad Schioeder, who Is
the piesldent ut the new company was
Piesent und was questioned by Chair
man Pa'-'e
Mr. Sclnoedei ail that he had "no
seciets;" whatevei he would say could
be told to the public. Theie is a new
company, he 'aid, and they intended to
give a telephone service to Seianton
which will equal that of the Central
company at a "much mole l unsuitable
into." This was dheeted hv Ml
Schioeder after a light, bante.l"g
fashion, to Mi Moloney, who was pies
ent at the meeting, Mr. Schioeder
went on to say that Mr. LiilPilug was
not In town when the ordinance was
lefelied by select count II to the judl
elaiy committee, thus fleeing Mi
Lansing fiom any "hold up" icsnonsl
blllty. The icnson that those inteiest
ed 111 the oidiuance hnd allowed It to
lemnin In the committee box was,
said Mr. Schioeder, foi the leason that
the present council might not pass it
and '-he walk would have to be done
over again after councils leoiganlKod.
As soon as the new councils nie In
existence the mensuie will be imsheil.
Societal y Atheiton, in offeilng an ex
planation of A. W Dickson's chnige of
"hold up," stated that In his onln'on
the mistake was rounded in a lenoit
that a Chicago telephone company was
tiling to get a foothold In this city.
