The anniversary of the birth of Robert Emmet was fittingly observed at the Golden Hotel, Monday evening, when about seventy people, represent ing all nationalities gathered at a banquet to do homage to his memory. John A. Harmon presided as toast master in his characteristic way, and1 the speakers, inspired by his flattering remarks, both before and after the talks, done great things. It was quite evident, from the remarks of some of the speakers that the dreaded H. C. of L. had been at work, these speakers persisted in, lauding the generosity of the bankers. Whether this was in an ticipation of a future need, or in gratitude for a past favor, was not disclosed. The speaking was all exceptionally good, also the singing. E. H. Whelan made one of his customary brilliant talks, referring briefly to Irish History and character and explaining the incon sistency of the much believed state ment that the Irish are clanish. T. V. Golden referred briefly to the in ception of the Emmet Literary Society and the men who organized it. Lack of space forbids us going more into detail with regard to the rest of the program as we would like to. You may be assured, however, that it was all equally good, outstrip ping all previous events of its kind. Others who spoke were J. J. Harring t ton, C. J. Malone, S. J. Weekes, Rev. < Longstaff and Rev. Parkerson. T. J. Nolan, and Helen Harrington favored with readings and the Misses G.Biglin, I). Stout, M. Donohoe, and Mrs. H. Reardon with Irish melodies.

This requirement has been kept in mind in designing and con structing the J. I. Case Foot Lift Gang and Sulky plows.' PERFECT PENETRATION These two plows have a penetrating arm connecting the rear end of the main frame to the rear end of the beam. Lengthening this arm by means of jam nuts gives more penetration to plow—shortening it gives less. SPRING PRESSURE LOCK A spring pressure lock gives flexibility to the beam so that the motion of the frame in going over uneven ground is not communicated to the bottom—The furrow is always level and uniform. This spring also acts as a buffer and absorbs the shock when the plow strikes a rock or other obstruction, thereby preventing breakage of share or bending them. The Frame is of One piece of Steel Strongly reinforced and is leveled automatically as the plow enters the ground or comes out— One movement does the work—just one slight pressure of the, foot. The Rear furrow wheel is provided with a set screw adjustment by which the wheel may be angled to take the landside pressure from the furrow bank. All side draft is eliminated by means of the J. I. Case evener and hitch. The plows are hitched in the center and yet (in the Gang) all Four horses are abreast, One in the furrow and the other three on the land. The extra width between the wheels also tends to--eliminate side draft. The width of furrows is controlled by adjusting the front furrow wheel axle. The entire weight of the driver and plow is carried on the wheels —not on the bottoms. The bottoms are built narrow at the throat and so designed as to offer the least resistance. They are made of the best grade of Soft Center steel. Early Machine buyers will save money and have the chance to see all different kinds before buying. Prices are not yet high but will be advanced about the time they are most used and it will not pay you to wait. Come in now and see the new Goods. Neil P.
