Kelley, of Richmond, as he stepped upon the Stage at Ford’s inst night to deliver his address upon Irish nationality. The object of the lec- ture was to raise funds to aid in the main- tenance of Mr. Parnell’s struggle in the British parliament for Irish liberty, and the audience was sympathetic and enthusiastic. The green flags and golden harps of Erin hung over the boxes, and the stars and stripes wore stretched across the back of the stage. The audience was of a high character and a number of prom- inent men occupied seats upon the platform. Among them were Representatives Collins of Boston, Murphy of Iowa, Wise of Virginia, Missouri, and’ Solicitor General Goode, Jeff. wudier, and Chief of Bureau of Statistics Switzler, Representative Collins was chosen president, and in a short address introduced Mr. Keiley. Three years ago, Mr, Collins said, 1,200 Irishmen were thrown into British pf those men (Parnell) had oth the tories and the liberals of England ina box, where he would hold them until he got Mr. Kelley began by referring to the day when, in 1782, a small patriotic mingrity in the Irish parliament, foreed the King of England to grant to Ireland legislation and Judicial liberty. Aniong the many dramatic scenes in history, hought none surpassed that in the old Irish he body as conspicuous for corruption in a most corrupt time. ‘Tyranny and oppression and re- ce filled the land and the king of England ruled, when a few herole men staved the tyrant’s hand and fora moment gave Ireland her liberty.

ASTREET PARADE AND A SERIES OF MEET Commissioner Smith, who {sin command ot the Salvation army in America, paid an official visit to the corps in this city yesterday, and held two meetings in the National Rifles’ arm- ory, each time the hall being pretty well filled. Inthe morning at 7 o'clock the army held a prayer meeting in the hall at the corner of 4th and L streets, and at 11 o'clock a jubilee meet- ing, led by Capt. Nellie Saddington and Licut. Clara Frost, was held at the same place, In the afternoon the army met in the Rifles’ armory, onGatreet. ‘There were about thirty persons on the platform, including the commissioner and wife; division commander, Capt. Fielding Hiwell, Whatmore and Prigiaire, the latter in command of the col- red corps, ahd Capt.

The Meeting of the Children at the At the meeting of Children’s Christmas club, division If, at the Franklin School building Saturday afternoon, District Commissioner ‘Webb, who was present, was introduced to the children and made a brief speech, in which he said he was glad to see them engaged in such a good work and promised to help all he could. When he stopped speaking Mr. Ross Perry pro- Posed tothe children togivea hurrah for Mr. Webb. There were three hundred children there, but one might have imagined trom the shout that arose in response to Mr. Perry's sug- gertlon that there were threo thousand. Mr. ry put his fingers in his ears and by gesture and entreaty finally succeeded in stopping the hurrah. While Mr. Perry was talking tothe children Miss Cleveland’s carriage drove up to the building and it was announced that she was coming upstairs, The children were at once thrown into a fiutter of excitement. “I don't think she would have come if she had known how many steps she had to climb,” said Mr. Perry, as he tried to get the little ones into order while waiting for their expected guest. “You can give a cheer for Miss Cleveland. I don’t object toa little cheer,” he added, “but You Must not give too much fone. “Mr. Webb js a man, you know, and hecan stand the nolse. You must give a little, gentle, refined cheer for a lady.” HOW MISS CLEVELAND WAS RECEIVED. Then Miss Cleveland, having made her way upstairs, came in, accompanied by Mrs. Law- rence. When she hai advanced partof the way Into the room Mr. Perry, turning to the children, said: “Now one cheer for Mixs Cleve- land,” and added the admonition, “Not too Jou The shout that rose made the cheer iven for Mr. Webb seem like a feeble murmur. Mr. Perry made a gesture of despair and stood mute for a moment. Then, when his voice could be heard, he sald, “Ob, my! You are all very glad to see Miss Cleveland, but dou t tell her that way any more.” Miss Cleveland sat down at the desk in the center of the room, and remained for some me an interested ‘spectator of the duins- of the club. Mr. Perry announced that next Sat- urday other officers would be el I. Mins Mollie Vilas, who was elected president Satur- day, is the only officer the club has at present. Arrangements were made for selecting waiters, “not too small and not too lurge;” the names of children not before enrolled were taken and the badges were distributed. These badges are of white silk, with the inscription, “C. C.C., 1885,” In gilt letters, anda little bell, suspended at the end, A LETTER FROM MISS CLEVELAND. Miss Cleveland wrote a letter Saturday to Vilas, the president of the club, in which she saic My DEAR Monte: I am glad you are going to take the lead in the Christmas club for re- membering poor children wio have no one to make Christinas for them, If you think itover that is the true Christ part of Christmas, for you Know zt, not only by the words, but by Hie wh fe, Hat ILI more blessed to give than to receive.” It takes. long time to learn Uat by heart, and if weal begau when children we would not be so dreadfully selfish grown Up people and there would be a great deal more comfort ali around. I hope you will Bnd out every forlorn, neglected boy and girl and surprise them witu a good dinner and something nice to take home and Keep to re- uu by, and what is a great deal bette wr Christ by. I still try to call your meeting this afternoou before it ts ov but I may be a little late, but as you, dear M Hie, are president it will not matter how many ne are late, Yours always, ive ELIZABETH CLEVELAND. HOW THE WORK 18 PROGRESSING. “The preparations for the entei the poor children by the Christmas club of the second district,” remarked a gentleman inter- ssted to a STAR reporter, “are going on in a sat- isiuctory way, and the prospect Is that It will ‘The various committees of ut work, and every thing is In a forward state of preparation.

They were placed in an embarrassing position. They must either restore the Metropolitan club to full member- ship aud drop the Nationals or withdraw from their, organization and form another one, Should they do the latter the Metropolitan club. ‘would be the American association, and would control, not only its own players, but the hun- dred or more players who are reserved by the other seven association elubs.
