VOL. IT. ST. MINL THE OBSEBVAXCE OF THE BIBIH HAT OF IRELAXD'S PATROX SAIXT. A. Call Upon Bishop Grace at His Resi dence—Biihop Grace's Address, Wherein He Deprecates the Formation of Ladies' Land Leagues— Evening Entertainments at the Opera House and Pfeifer's Hall— The Day Elsewhere. The seventeenth day of March is a red letter tpoeh in the struggles and triumphs of Irish history. Dedicated to the memory of St. Pat rick, the muse has twined her choicest laurels about the illustrious deeds of Ireland's patron saint. Tradition has ascribed to this worthy the performance of acts which could only •pring from motives of the purest heroism, conjoined to which were powers that were lit tle short of supernatural. The great mass of mankind are given to hero-vorship: human nature iv its yearnings for the ideal has got to have something to adore beyond the level of the things that are of the earth earthy, and the Alpha and Omega of which are, after all, only clay. Ireland has 1,000 saints in her calendar, but in the list of the canonized the memory of none is so fragant and dear to the hearts of the people as St. Patrick. So it has come to pass that the tradition about this strange man has erystalized into a settled belief, and the wonderful feats of St. Patrick are worshiped with a zeal that sur passes every other species of devotion. Nowhere does the anniveisary of St. Patrick meet with a hfartier response than in St. Paul Yesterday witnessed a spontaneous and great outflowing of the people. The day dawned bright and beautiful, in strange contrast to the proverbial uncanny weather of the day. The walking was bad, to be sure, but overhead there shone a~bright sun and the clearest of skies. At an early hour the streets were filled with people adorned with the unfailing symbol cf the shamrock, making their way to the various places of worship. AT THE CATHEDRAL. The Cathedral was the great Mecca to which all footsteps were turned, aud at 10 o'clock the vast auditorium and galleries were filled to repletion. High mass was said, the Rev. B. J. McMul leu celebrant, Rev. John Shanky deacon, and Rev. Father Reilly sub-deacon. The sermon was preached by Rev. Father ohanley, who gave a graphic review of the life of St. Patrick. He eloquently pictured the sufferings and triumphs or the saint, and the cntertaiuing sketch was heard with mark ed interest. After the sermon ihe Great Western baud filed into the orgau loft and digcoursed a num ber of patriotic airs, to the musk of which the congregation passed out. The Irish societies, consisting of the Father Matthew society, commanded by James Dil lon; the Cathedral guards, commanded by Mr. W. R. O'Keefe, and tho Cathedral cadets, commanded by Master M. McCarthy, formed in procession on Sixth street and headed by the band they marched around the block. Returning they stopped in front of the bishop's house, the street and approaches to which were densely packed with people. Bishop Grace appeared at the 'loor of the pastorate, when Mr. Timothy Reardon stepped to the front and delivered the following ad dress: T. REAUDOX'S ADDKE3B. Rt. Rev. Bishop: I have the honor of presenting to you to-day the Irishmen of St. Paul, who from motives of veneration for your sacred office, and of the highest love and respect for you personally, we have as sembled to pay "you this honor on this festi val of St. Patrick. With each recurring year ft Patrick's day comes around in its regular order, but 1 am .sure that for more than a quar ter of a ceutury there has been no celebration of it like the present, when the hearts of the sons and daughters of Ireland have been filled with prayers so earnest, and with hope so sanguine for the dear old land, dearer for the darkness of her woe and for the manly spirit of her people at home in battling for her rights. Ireland is to-day the center upon which the world's eyes are turned and to the struggle for her liberation from a cruel and barbarious foreign yokes the world has given its heartfelt godspeed . Given it with no mean grudging spirit, and if the Irish people keep and ruaiutain-Jhe stand which in the land leagues they have taken, they will prove themselves worthy the sympathy extended to them, and in the end free themselves from the odious misrule of Great Britain. The cause of the land league i 3 just; 'tis holy; religion has blessed its banners, and patriotism has sanctified them. It has united the people of Ireland as never before. Catholics and Protestants and even that most violent of anti-Catholic bodies, the Orange men, have banded together in this endeavorfto win for him who tills the soil the right which God gave him and which English law denies him— the right at least to live out of the fruits of the soil. God made the earth for all men; • British law dedicates the soil of Ireland forever to the landlords, only this the land league pro poses to change, and all Irishmen, all Chris tian men, all human men, all just men will ex tend to it their earnest co-ODeration. In conclusion, I wish to refer more especial ly to the total abstaiuence men here assembled. They have shown, Right Reverend Sir.thatthey can conquer themselves; and, under God, that i 6 the hrst step towards conquering their enemies. Irishmen have taken that step, and the rest will follow iv God's good time. Ask ing your blessing, Right Reverend Bishop, and wishing you yet many years of health and happiness to govern and lead your people. Master M. McCarthy, commander of the ca dets, then made a very neat speech, which did himself a great deal of credit. BISHOr GRACE. Following this Bishoj> Grace stepped for ward and made, the following address of wel- come: It is very gratifying to me, my friends, to meet you again on the return of Patrick's Day. There are many reasons for congratulation since you assembled on this anniversary last year. The condition of Ireland at that time was sad indeed, but the threatened famine was stayed by the generosity of sympathizing friends the world over. But more than this, the world's gaze for the first time fixed firmly and steadily on the wrongs which were done to Ireland, and which were the im mediate cause of the calamities that had afflicted its people for centuries. The verdict of the civilized world was pronounced, and the oppressing government was for the first time brought face to face with the injustices and iniquities of its policy to ward Ireland. The results of this point gained cannot be over-estimated. But it was not accomplished without the action of the Irish people themselves, aud they have borne themselves nobly in the attitude of resistance they have taken "to the injustice of the legisla tion by which their country has bceu governed. All parties, all factions, all creeds, clergy and people, have been as one, united in the determi nation that these crying wrongs to Ireland shall cease. And they have proceeded in accordance with the 6trict principles of right , of justice and of law. For this have they gained the vantage ground they now hold, and if they continue to adhere to these principles their success in the attainment of their object must necessarily follow. I have said if they continue to adhere to these principles, for if unfortunately they should forsake the prin ciples of right," justice and law, and place themselves in the wrong before the world, they cannot longer expect sympathy of the world, nor expect success. But I have every hope that this will not be the case; I have all confidence in the wisdom, prudence and statesman like qualities of the leaders in this movement. This confidence, whatever > *.» J . has occurred, has not been shaken. Among ourselves, who are co-operating with those in Ireland, I feel sure there are none who vould lend their sanction to anything that would be in violation of those principles. There is one thing, however, here in St. Paul, of which I beg you will allow me to withhold my approval. It is the forming of ladies' leagues. There is something about the calling out of mothers and daughters from their homes at night to form leagues and hold meetings that does not seem right. The move ment I Know did not originate with the women themselves. It is in opposition to all their womanly instincts . It is an inf ringment upon 6acredness of home life. It give 6 a rude shock to those domestic virtues which we should ever be careful to cherish. If you desire the co-operation of woman in this movement, leave her to co-operate in her own way. You need not to be assured of her sympathies with her suffering country and suffering sisters at home. These sympathies are as strong as yours— more deeply felt according to her more impressible nature. Leave her to express those feelings by word and act in ways of her own, which she knows full well, and constrain her not to adopt the rough, unfamiliar ways of men, by holding public meetings for dis cussions. I thank you, my friends, for the honor you have done me, and for your kind attention. Calls were then made for Rev. Father Shaii ley, who came forward and made a brief ad dress, in his usual eloquent and felicitous style. After this the band played and the crowd dispersed. The Opera House Entertainment. The Opera House was crowded to its ut most capacity in the evening by an audience of both old and young, to enjoy the entertain ment given in honor of the day. All were in a merry mood and willing to be pleased, while those whose duty it was to entertain were de. termined to do all in their power to satisfy. Father Snanley opened the exercises with a brief and eloquent address appropriate to the occasion. This was followed by musical se lections by the orchestra, Mr. Buckelew, Miss Mamie King and a quartette consisting of Messrs. Draper, Lofski, Manner and Bucke lew. Miss King, who has a sweet, well-trained voice and much self-possession for one so young, received a hearty encore . The farce •'Turn Him Out," was excellently acted, the young ladies especially, Miss Rose O'Hara and Miss Annie M. Kelly acquitting themselves with grace, and displaying excellent dramatic ability. More enjoyable musical selections followed, Miss Grace Haggerty and the gen tlemen named contributing greatly to the en tertaiinent of the audience. Miss Haggerty's cultivated voice and graceful manner capti vated all present, and 6he received a deserved encore. The evening's entertainment closed with the rendition of the roaring farce, "That Rascal Pat," Messrs. O'Brien, Forbes and Fogarty, and Misses King and O'Hara sus taining the characters excellently. The ladies were vivacious aud charming, and well up in their roles. As a whole the entertainment was far supe rior to the average of amateur performances, and gave unalloyed pleasure to the thousand or more -who were present. The young gen tlemen and ladies who contributed 6o ably to its success descr.\ethe highest commendation, and received it at the hßnds of those who en joyed so pleasant an evening. The Pfeifer's Hall Entertainment. The entertainment at Pfeifer's hall undar the auspices of. St. Joseph's parish, was of a varied and very pleasing character. To begin with, a bounteous supper was served by the 'ladies of the parish, lasting from 7 until 9 o'clock, and it is estimated that fully 500 people partook of the spread. The supper was iv charge of Mrs. Rumohr, Mrs. James Dowlan, Mrs. Conlan aud Miss Ella Sherbrook. The entertainment proper ;ommenced about l> o'clock. The programme consisted of songs, character acting, addresses and a very laughable farce. The Rev. Father Neilis delivered a short but very pleasing address, and remarks were also made by Hon. J. J. Egan and City Attorney Murray. The former delivered a eulogy on St. Patrick, the day we celebrate, and the les sons to be drawn from the life of the saint. Mr. Murray's speech was characteristically funny and the audience were kept in a roar. PROGRAMME. The programme was as follows, and the dif ferent parts were executed in a manner as to reflect credit on the performers: Opening address Rev. J. W. Neilis Song— "The Landlords Must Go" .-. Mr. J. J.

The performance concluded with a series of panoramic views which formed a beautiful and very prominent feature of the entertainment. The Day Abroad. Chicago, March 17.— Yellow and green rib bons in the buttonholes indicates that to-day is an Irish holiday, but beyond this token and the celebration in St. Patrick's church of high mass by Archbishop Fehan, there is no evi dence that the usually lively and hilarious St. Patrick's day has arrived. The societies are tarred from parading by the abominable con dition of the streets and also by their inclina tion to use the money, which would be 6o ex peuded, iv ameliorating the sufferings and strengthening the hands of their fellow coun try men across the Atlantic in obtaining what they consider their rights as against the op pression of the landlords. Our Irish citizens have sent considerable sums of money and it is understood more is ready to go forward now for that purpose. Cleveland, March 17.— N0 parade here in honor of Bt. Patrick, the money usually ex pended for that purpose being contributed to the land league. New York, March 17.— A majority of the Irish societies of this city and Brooklyn are celebrating St. Patrick' 6 day by meetings in all parts of the two cities. A much smaller procession than usual formed up town and was received by the mayor and aldermen, and then proceeded to Jones' woods, where a demonstration was given in aid of the land league. Cincinnati, March 17.— St. Patrick's day was celebrated by a very small parade, in which three societies appeared. Weather rainy during the forenoon, and the streets in wretched condition, which no doubt reduced the magnitude of the demonstration. New York, March 17. —Dispatches from eastern and southern States and Canada, rep resents St. Patrick's day observed more quietly than usual, the procession in many cases being dispensed with, meetings, games and various amusements taking the place of the parade. St. Louis, March 17. — Irish citizens cele brated St. Patrick's day in the usual manner. A procession embracing most of the civic societies of the city paraded the principal streets, after which a mass meeting was held at Twelfth street market square to-night. The Knights of St. Patrick have their annual banquet, and numerous balls -and parties are in progress in various parts of the city. The mass meeting was addressed by several prominent Irishmen, and a long series of resolutions adopted which Daily SAINT PAUL, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 18, 1881. vigorously denounce the attitude of the English government towards Ireland —the coercion bill and land laws, and express warm sympathy for the people who are being so terribly oppressed by British rule. Dublin, March 17.— The celebration of St. Patrick's day was unusually quiet throughout Ireland. EX-PRESIDENT'S FUND The Scheme for Pensioning Grant by Pri vate Subscription Successful— The Entire Amount of $350,000 Secured by George Jones, Producing a Revenue of About $15,000 a Year. New York, March 17.— 1u November last an appeal was made In the form of a subscrip tion to provide a perpetual fund whose annual income should be enjoyed during life and while not holding any federal office by the oldest ex-President of the United States. The desired amount of the fund was stated at $250,000, and its probable yearly income at $12,500. The task of raising the ftrad was undertaken in person by George Jones, and the record of his completed work is contained in the following report: "I have the pleasure to announce that of the entire amount,s2so,ooo, which has been subscribed, §216,000 has been paid in. The outstanding subscriptions are mainly those of a few subscribers for large amounts, who are at present out of the coun try and who have not yet had time to answer my request for payment. The amount al ready received has been invested by a commit tee of subscribers, consisting of Ed. Morgan, Oliver Hoyt and Geo. Jones, and will yield an annual income of $13,160. Should this remainder be invested to an equal advantage, the fund will yield over $15,000 a year. The great majority of sub scribers de«m it advisable to make public the names of those who have contributed to the fund, and about $50,000 has been subscribed on the distinct understanding that the names of the donors ahall be kept secret . I may say, however, that an analysis of the list in my possession shows the following distribution of amounts: Two subscribers of $25,000, $50,000; three sub scribers of $10,000, $30,000; eighteen sub scribers of $5,000, $90,000; three subscribers of $2,500, $7,500; two subscribers of $2,000, $4,000; forty-eight subscribers of $1,000, $48, --000; one subscriber of $750, 750; twenty-one subscribers of $500, $10,500, twenty-nine subscribers of $250, $67,500; five subscribers of $200, $1,000; thirteen subscribers of $100, $1,300, and one subscriber of $50, $50. Various subscribers for small amounts, $150. Total, $250,000. When it becomes necessary to provide for the ultimate disposition of the fund a meeting of subscribers will be called.

The body had the appearance of having been run over by a heavy wagon and then taken and left where found, as the child's shoes were free from mud. The ca6e seems to be one of criminal carelessness on the part of some driv er in the flr6t place and then cruel heartless ness in the attempt to cover the first crime. A CUSTOMER FOR JUDGE LYNCH. St Louis, March 17.— The Republican'' a Fort Worth, Texas, special says: Frank Vai ner, a negro, after terribly choking, beating and gagging Laura Edison, a handsome and quite accomplished young lady living two miles from this city, brutally outraged her and fled, but was pursued by friends of the lady, captured and lodged in jail.

It is sufficient to the unbounded filial love of Alexander 111., to attain a firm conviction that this general policy of peace, social conservation and pro gressive development will be continued ■with all the resolution, loyalty and energy which from the father passes to the son. Tho manifestations of regret and veneration for the august victim arriving from all parts of the world k constitute cvldencea of confidence in the future, and of universal desire to see the excellent relattons which the late czar knew how to create with all foreign powers, maintained, consolidated and developed. We know this confidence will not be misplaced, and Russia will not delay making known the intentions of Alexander 111. in this respect, in terms as worthy the great empire as to the memory of him whose 6ole care was the prosperity, honor and dignity of Russia.

The provision trade pay little attention to the action of Austria. They say the order of exclusion of the American hog product will not affect the trade, as Austria is rather a competitor than an importer. The effect, if any, would come from Belgium, Germany and France barring out the product. NORTHFIELD. Northfielb March 16.— Carleton college closes Friday. Dry soft wood is se'ling at S* per oord.

H., Patriot. WHITE Bit Alt LAKE. Who Will Inaugurate a First Class Hotel Enterprise? While every other pleasure resort within easy access of Bt. Paul is being rapidly devel oped and drawing an increasing number of patrons, both among our citizens and tourists from abroad, our beautiful White Bear lake, now brought within a brief half hour's ride of the city, is falling to the rear for the want of sufficient hotel accommodations. Since the old South Shore house was burned there are only three moderate sized hotels, besides a boarding house or two, wholly insufficient to afford shelter and meals to the throng of people who seek the lake during the summer months. As a natural result people flock to lakes twice or three times the distance from St. Paul, and a large proposition of the tour ists and pleasure seekers who seek our State during the summer months, follow their ex ample. White Bear is no longer the wilderness lake of a few years ago. By the growth of St. Paul, and the increase of railroad facilities, it has become a suburb of our city. Not only the residents of the little village, hut every prop erty owner and business man of St. Paul, will benefit by the prosperity of our own home re sort- More than one for building a large hotel at the lake, has been discussed, and aban doned. Every winter, of late, something of the kind has been on foot, and every summer following brines the gen eral comments, upon everyone^ lips, on the insufficiency of the exist ing houses. Cannot something be done this season? There is but little time to spare; all agree that a first-class hotel would be well patronized, and there is no doubt that prop erty owners at the lake, as well as the railroad company, would derive great benefit. Why cannot some of our business men move in this matter? Who will take the lead? Work of the Legislature* of 1879 and 1881. Frank Carlton yesterday completed his record Of rhe work of the last legislature. The figures as compared with 1879 are as follows. 1879. 1881. No. of Senate flies signed 240 206 No. of House files signed 260 415 No. of Senate files withdrawn 1 1 No. of House files withdrawn 2 2 No. of Senate files vetoed. 5 1 No/of House files vetoed 4 4 Total 619 629 It will be seen that the number of acts passed at the late session was in excess of that of the session of 1879 by 110. The increase is due entirely to the House, the Senate not originating as many measures at the late session as in that of 1879 by 34, whi'e the House showsan increase over 1879 of 155. With the large increase in the number of bills originating hi the House over 1879 more care seems to have been taken in- their preparation, as the number withdrawn from the governor was the same for both sessions, while only one bill originating with it at the last ses sion was vetoed, against 6in 1879. Senate files ve toed were the same at both sessions, 4, as also bills withdrawn from the governor, 1 A Bold Robbery. About 11 o'olock last night two men, one in the uniform of a United States private, entered Simon's bolooii, corner of Third and Washington streets, and at once struck up a conversation with a drunken Swede named Andrew Oleson. The latter had two or three -watches which he wanted to dispose of, and he foolishly expesed the property to the strangers . Under the pretense ef wanting to purchase, one of the men asked to see the 'jigger," on receiving which they bolted for a side door and ran into the street, making their eeoapc. Last midnight the men were captured near Seven Corners by Detective O'Connor and Officer Baer. The watch was recov ered from the soldier, who gave the name of Win. Spellman. Th» other man registered as Jce Carr. They were looked up. PERSONAL. M. C. Whipple of Eau Claire, at the Claren don. At the Merchants: L. L. Ellsworth, Cannon Falls. Hon. R. L.

Of course, being in St. Paul, Capt. Wilson sought out Capt. Bart. Atkins, like himself an old upper lake salt, and the two passed a very pleasant afternoon comparing notes and reviewing inci dents and personal recollections of the days of auld lane syne, when both were "salloring."

Washington, March 17.— The minister* of the United States at the Court of St. James and the French capital, have been instructed to lay before the respective governments to which they ara ao credited, the sense of this government that injustice is shown toward the citizens and food products of this country by the attitude which is being as sumed in Europe on this question. Positive instruc tions have been sent Lowell at London to meet Crump s statements and expose their erroneousuess. Noyes, at Paris, has been telegraphed hi the follow ing terms directing him to lay the facts before the French government : sJWashinston, March 16.— To Noyes, minister, Paris Your course respecting the pork decree of the French government, approved . The statements of Crump, acting British consul at Philadelphia, oc casioned excitement and wide-spread comment bere, leadng to cor correspondence with the British legation aud boards of trade. Hog oholera Is oonf oundedwith trichina sis, which Is entirely a distinct disease but the repre sentations regarding hog cholera are very greatly exaggerated. The most searching in vestigation falls to show the basis for the published statements. Mortality among very young swine from oholera has been l«ss this year than for several years past and the condition of full grown hogs, which are alone used for paoUng and export, is this year exceptionally good. British rep resentatives at Philadelphia have apparently been misled by designing speculators to the great injury of legitimate trade. Deny hi the strongest terms the report of the British consul, should French ministers appeal to it as justifying them in inter dicting or restricting the American pork trade . In - Btructlons follow.
