The location is one of the best in South Boston. but the handicap in building new structures is that there is an elevation above the street level fully 40 feet on Broadway, and extending back to East 4th st. It was in 1838 that the Perkins building was erected. It was built as the Mt Washington Hotel, and opened by several wealthy men of the city who thought they foresaw in South Boston the aristocratic sectioa of the city. John Ford was the manager.

The Warren Association, as the syndicate was called, commenced running a line of coaches from the old State House to the hotel, charging 26 cents fare, which was soon reduced to six cents. But the hotel did not pay, and the building at last became the property of the Perkins Institution for the Blind.

Toldtby Raps' at Anniversary Peeld Yesterday. Both Were Close Friends for Many Years.

of the many speakers who paid tribute to John I3oyle O'Reilly, yesterday, at the Boston City Club, not one was more interesting than Cant Henry C. Hathaway of New Bedford. In a modest, manly manner, he told et his part in the rescue of O'Reilly from Australia. He said: ''Mr President. Gentlemen of the John Boyle O'Reilly Club and Invited Guests: "I am reminded on this, the 25th anniversary of the passing away of John I3oyle O'Reilly of the first time that I met him, which was in the month of February, 1869, 46 years ago last February.

When passing along the main street at Itunbury, a small tOwn on the West Coast of Australia, I was hailed by Rev Fr McCabe, who esked me if I was an officer of the American bark in the harbor, and answering him in the affirmative, he asked permission to walk along with me, and as we walked he told me of a young man who was biding in the bush several miles away that he was deeply interested in, told me who he was, and why he was there. "I also became interested, so that night when I went on board the ship I told Capt Gifford of the meeting, who adid he had been approached and was considering whether it would be best or not, but was finally told to go ahead end make arrangements for the escape. The following day I met the priest and by appointment was introduced to a friend Who was to go with me on horseback with food, drink and letter of instructions. NVe rode several miles over rough roads, then dismounted, hitched our horses, went through a path in the woods, and there on the ground under a large tree lay O'Reilly. He was nearly exhausted, his were badly torn, his fiesli badly bruised, anti was nearly shoeless.

When Maguire (my ion) introduced me and told him of the scheme, he said it was no use, it would be another disappointment. We remained with him a short time and then returned to town. Maguire was return and assist him to the beach. The following day I had the pleasure of Resisting him on board the bark Gazelle, where we roomed together for several months. Requested to Tell Story.

"What happened after this has been told so many times 4hat every man. womcn and child in this country, especially of Irish parentage, should know It by heatt. "And yet I am requested to tell what happened to O'Reilly when he was with me in pursuit of whales. "It was in the month of May, 1869, when we chased a large sperm whale a twig from the ship, and finall l. succeeded in fastening to him.

No sooner had the harpoon struck him than he struck the boat with his flukes and stove her badly. In fact the only piece large enough to had a person was the stern, which was about 10 feet long. 'I was on this piece holding on to the keel and oar, the crew was all dumped into the sea and lay on pieces of the boat and oars. When the whale first struck the boat with his flukes I noticed O'Reilly's head drop as if hurt, and when the whale was clear from the boat. I saw all of the crew except O'Reilly.

I said to Bolter, the after oarsman. 'where is and presently saw him just a little under water, bobbing up and down like a cork. "I grabbed him by the hair and then his shirt collar and finally worked him up on my shoulder. He was frothing from the mouth and nostrils, and my first tholight was that he was dead. I then thought, if dead, he would surely sink.

Every sea that washed over us I would shake my head, punch him in the stomach and wipe his face. "This I continued tor four hours until a boat came to our rescue. I remember of the man in the head of the' boat reaching over and take O'Reilly by the collar, which was the last that I remembered for hours. When I came to In my bunk and opened eyes he said. 'Harry, why didn't, you let me I then fainted again bat finally came to all right.

I certainly must have been nearly exhausted, for they told me, as soon as O'Reilly was safe, I rolled over into the sea, and it was with great difficulty that they secured me. Confined In Stateroom. "We were both confined to the stateroom about two weeks and then returned to duty. Some time after this we sighted whales again. O'Reilly wanted to go.

I objected, and begged him to remain on board the ship, but he strongly insisted on going. That day we got a large one, without accident, and from this he wrote his poem, The Amber "We crulged for whales for a short time after this and then started for Iloderlque, a small island in the Indian Ocean (an English possession). We arrived late in the afternoon. The Governor and police came on board and said we had two escaped convicts on board, John Boyle O'Reilly and Martin Bowman. I was standing near the captain with O'Reilly by my side and told them we had two stowaways on board.

When we left Ilunbury, one by the name of Brown, who later committed suicide by Jumping overboard in the Straights of Sundy, and the other. Martin Bowman, was forward with the sailors. "Bowman came on board in the boat with O'Reilly. He was sentenced to Australia for murder and when he discovered O'Reilly was trying to escape he followed him to the beach and they were obliged to take him along for fear he might upset the whole plan. He Was not liked by the sailors and they readily pointed him out to the police.

He was put in irons and taken to the gangway. It was nearly dark, and as he went over the other side to enter the boat. he glanced at O'Reilly and said. 'Good bye, shipmate, we will meet "Ile reported on shore that night that O'Reilly was on board. The captain went on shore for the night and had to acknowledge that he was there.

Of course, O'Reilly looked for this and was very much excited. Said he knew they would be after him in the morning but would never be taken alive. We went down to our stateroom and there tried to think of some way to escape. Set Boat-Crew Watches. "we then set boat-crew watches for the night, which is customary while in port.

my watch to go down on deck at 11 o'clock. We went on deck together, and as we went up the cabin stairs, I happened to think of the crockery locker under the stairs. and the only entrance was by taking up one of the treads, so after everything was quiet I went down and took out the screws in the step, then went on deck and told O'Reilly who went down and found, by a little squeezing. he could get in. "I then told him 1 was going forward with the crew to overhaul a range of chain around the windlass, and while I was there busy with the crew to take a small grindstone which was amidship, take it after.

and when I returned amid-ship. and while in conversation with my boatsteerer to throw the grindstone overboard. at the same time throw over his old felt hat. give a scream, go down to the hiding place and leave the rest with me. We heard the splash and the scream and Lambert (my boatsteerer said, 'that's O'Reilly's voice.

He has Jumped "I gave the order to call all hands and lower the hoats, and while this was being done 1 went to the cabin to call the officers and placed the tread on the stair. 'We lowered all the boats and took chains to sweep the harbor for his body, if not found alive.

John Glover Lett Owing Several Residents for Work, Apparently Did Not Gain by His Transactions. RANDOLPH, Aug IIConsiderable mystery surrounds the visit of a man giving the name of John Glover, who came to this town July 20, claiming to be a representative of the telephone company and who has disappeared owing several residents for work done.

When he arrived he went to the house of Fred Evans, on Canton st, and asked for rooms. for his men. Mrs Evans could not accommodate him and referred him to Mrs Elbridge Jones, who lives at the corner of Canton and High Sts. Satisfactory arrangements wel made with Mrs Jones and Glover himself stayed there the first night. Aftet that he went to the home of William Franckes, who -lives in the immediate vicinity.

The man next negotiated with Edwin M. Mann for a sand pit on Canton st, and succeeding, he started to have the sand hauled to Roberts Field. In all more than 200 loads were removed. Glover said that sand was to be used in making cement blocks for poles. Poles were needed, so he had Fred Evans, Richard Irvin, Marcus J.

L. Tirrell, Edwin M. Mann, Edson Tucker and William Quigley cut down quite a number of trees and told them that men would call for the trees in a day or two, hut they are still in theplace where they were laid when cut down. Friday Mrs Evans received a telephone message for Glover, from a man giving the name of Morrison, who asked that Mr Glover meet the paymaster on Dedham road, Saturday afternoon. She later got another message apparently from the same Morrison, who asked her to tell Glover that if the paymaster was not on Dedham road when he got there to wait for him.

The only money Glover seems to have paid while here is to John Brown for cutting poles. Glover gave 'Brown $2, Saying at the time he would take it out when the paymaster arrived. Saturday afternoon, about 2 o'clock, Glover drove up to the house of J. Edward Devine, North Main et, in a horse and carriage owned by Frank W. Harris, the livery stable keeper In the center of the town.

Glover told Mrs Devine that her husband had sent him to swap horses. Jelieving the story Mrs Devine let him take the horse and leave Harris' animal. The last seen of Glover was driving towards Mattapan. Devine has lost a gray horse and Harris a carriage and harness. Harris also has a bill against Glover for a long-distance automobile ride.

Among the residents of the town who furnished teams several times were Charles Truelson, J. Edward Devine, Frank W. Harris, James Devine, Percy Crockett, George Ayres, Fred Evans, all of Randolph, and Robert Snow, John Lawrence and a man named Craig of Milton. These men would like to collect for their work. Chief of Police McGerigle is making an investigation, and every one is at a loss to understand what Glover's object was.

Apparently he did not gain much outeof his efforts, and why he should run up unnecessary bills is a puzzle to all concerned. Inquiries at the Telephone Company office as well as the headquarters of the American Telephone Association failed to clear tip the mystery. Nothing was known about the man at either place. He was 25 or 26 years of age, 5ft 9in In hight, weighed about 145 pounds, slight build and light complexioned. He told every one that he had worked for the telephone company for more than 13 years.

RESUMPTION OF BOSTON AND AUSTRALIA SERVICE Resumption of the direct service between Australian ports and Boston by the Federal and Shire Lines. which was discontinued several months ago. is announced, and an effort is to be made to maintain regular sailings between the different ports in New South Wales. New Zealand and Australia. The steamship Co lusa, which sailed from Sydney.

July 31, and is expected to reach here Sept 9. will be the first arrival. The steamer win use the Panama Canal route. which will greatly shorten the trip and enable them to make the run in about 40 days. The Co idea is bringing a valuable cargo of Australian wool and general merchandise.

It is probable that frozen beef and mutton will form a considerable portion of the cargoes of the steamers. The local agents of the line. A. C. Lombards' Sons, stated today that theb Colusa would be followed by two other steamers in September.

The lAraluen will leave Brisbane and Sydney early next month, direct for Boston, and the Dongarra will take her departure from the same ports about three weeks there after. The project is receiving the support of the local wool importers anti other merchants who have business relations with Australia.

Ensign at Half-Mast. "The next morning at sunrise we put the ensign at Alf-mast. The captain, Governor and police came on 'board. also Martin Bowman, to point out O'Reilly. We told the story of the suicide which was believed, for all on board (except myself) thought he was drowned.

"The Governor, police and Bowman returned to the shore. We then took fresh supplies and went on board. Took the anchor and started for sea with all sails set. This was late in the afternoon. When about 10 miles from the harbor we went down to supper, and of course all our talk was about the suicide.

After supper the captain and officers went on deck. I went to my stateroom, lighted a cigar. then oe deck, and being satisfied with the conditions of the wind, went below and took off the tread. "He looked very curious when I told him to come out, that he was free once more. He went on deck and there was certainly great rejoicing with the captain, officers and crew.

We then pro eded our homeward voyage, wondering what would come next, for we were booked for another English fort, St Helena. "This we feared above all things. One morning while off the Cape of Good Hope thy morning watch on deck, it was nearly calm. several ships in sight, I hoisted the ensign at the mizzen peak, and it was answered by a large American ship, the Saphire. I called the captain, and after a short conversation we went on board.

"The captain informed us he was bound direct for Liverpool, Eng. It seemed at first like going into the lion's jaw, but after telling the captain who O'Reilly was and of the rescue, he said, 'leave him with me. I will look out for him and see that he arrives in the United States, for I will put him on board an American ship at which he did, and he arrived at Philadelphia in November 1869. On the arrival of the Gazelle at New Bedford in the Summer of 1870, O'Reilly made me a visit, and from that time until his death we were very closely connected." SOME ARE JAILED.

Five years ago the building was abandoned by the school, and the handsome new buildings in Watertown have since been used.

The old main building has remained idle ever since, and many have been the conjectures as to what use it would be put. All conjectures ceased, however, early in June, when it was announced that the O'Brien brothers had bought it, and soon afterward the work of razing it commenced. In various parts of the building old documents, letters and books bearing the name Mt Washington Hotel have been found with interesting data.

Strikers Say Others Should Have Quit Long Ago.

Machinists employed at the B. S. Sturtevant Blower Works at Hyde Park, will hold a meeting in Magnolia Hall tonight and vote on the question whether they will go on a strike. The committee representing the machinists employed in the plant called on Supt Freeman this morning and stated to him the demands of the men for an eight-hour day, 50-cent wage, and time and a-half for overtime, as well as other requests being made by the machinists in various parts of New Enkland. The result of the conference was not made public.

The committee declined to say anything for publication. After the conference the members went to Magnolia Hall, and following a short consultation with District Agent Roscoe Hall, and Harry Gill departed. Mr Hall was asked what success the committee had when they called on Supt Freeman, but he said he was not to discuss the matter inasmuch as it related to the Sturtevant plant, and would not make any announcement until the employes of that concern met tonight in Magnolia Hall. The men on strike from the Becker Company are watching with great interest the developments at the other Hyde Park concern. It is plain that the strikers feel that their chances of success depend in a great measure on the action of the Sturtevant machinists.

There is a lot of dissatisfaction among the strikers, as they consider that the Sturtevant men should have been ()fit long ago. They believe that the machinist wage increase and the shorter-hour questions apply to both factories. Representatives of the men on strike at the National Tool Company in South Boston have declared that go back unless the Sturtevant men quit, as they consider that if any assistance should come to the Becker strikers it should be from fellow machinists in Hyde, Park. The usual midday meeting near the Sturtevant plant was held today, and the number of machinists was unusually large. Roscoe Hall and Harry Gill were among the speakers.

The topic was the visit of the committee to the superintendent of the Sturtevant Company, and the men were told to be at Magnolia Hall will be a report On what happened. It would not be surprising, unless unexpected concessions were granted this morning, which is deemed doubtful, if the machinists walked out tomorrow morning. BOSTON MAN FOUND.
