# PROMINENT MEN ATTEND BANQUET
### IRISH IN ANNUAL BANQUET AT THE SILVER BOW CLUB IN HONOR OF ST. PATRICK.
The banquet given at the Silver Bow club last evening was attended by representative Irish-Americans from all parts of the state of Montana. From the heights of patriotism, love of the banner of Green, and loyalty to the Eagle, the addresses last night carried the listeners over the waves that part the New World from the Old, to the little Island that sleeps on the bosom of the wave. The curtains of the future were rolled back and the brightness of the days that await limned in silver lines.
The banquet was handsomely apointed. P. J. Brophy, was chairman. Lieutenant Governor Allen was unavoidably absent and W. W. Walsworth of The Anaconda Standard took his place in the toast of "Montana."
The program of the evening was as follows:
"The President," Hon Henry C. Smith.
"Our Country," Hon. C. F. Kelley.
"The Irish-Americans," Hon. William L. Holloway.
"St. Patrick's Day," Mr. W. K. Dwyer.
"Montana," W. W. Walsworth.
Song, Ed Lee.
Recitation, M. J. Gavigan.
"Our City," Hon C. P. Nevin.
