New York. March 4 Irishmen of
Manhattan nnd Brooklyn nro prepar
ing for the ohiu-rvaiiru of the birth
day of Kobort Kmmi't tomorrow , and
unprecedented enthusiasm will prop-
ably mark the celebration in the mem
ory of the martyr of Irish national
ity. Kmmt't wan born In Doublln just
KI3 years ago to day , but the princi
pal celebrations in this city will be
held on Sunday In order that nil
Irliihincn and sympathizers with the
caiiHo of freedom may have an op
portunity to participate. There Is
A general boUcf that the movement
for which Emmet gave up his llfo Is
now Hearing fruition , and this will
add to the interest In tomorrow's
meetings. The Montnuk theatre has
been engaged for n great gathering
of Brooklyn Hibernians , under the
auspices of Clnn-na-Gael , and similar
demonstrations will bo held In Man
hattan and the Bronx.
During the week the Long Island
countryside has been emblazoned with
posters Inviting all who read to be
come the guests of Mrs. O. II. P. Bel-
in out at Brockholst , her country place.
The purpose of this great general hos
pitality Is to win converts to the suf-
frnglsts cause , in which Mrs. Belmont
is n lender. A number of prominent
suffragists will address the crowds
this evening , and an organization will

Miss Mabel Tnllnferro , who Isn't
n "miss" at all , but the wife of Fred
erick C. Thompson , the theatrical
manager , is to experiment with a
"trial divorce , " according to friends
of the couple. Miss Tallaferro has
engaged passage for Europe , sailing
the twentieth of this month , and will
remain a year , in order that she and
her husband may have time to con
sider whether they wish to bo per
manently divorced. They have been
married four years , the ceremony hav
ing been performed after a courtship
of two weeks. Both Mr. Thompson
nnd Miss Tallaferro are of exceeding
ly nervous temperaments , and this ,
say their friends , gave rise to differ
ences leading up to the proposed sep
aration and "trial divorce. "
Louis Friedman * the "Coal Oil John
ny" of Florida , is now presumably
back in Pensacola , telling his friends
of his brief but swift career as a
spendev in the metropolis. Mr. Fried
man was held up and robbed while on
his way to New York from Florida ,
but the bad men who did the trick
overlooked $3.90. With this sum he
spent fov.r days in Gotham and had
the time of his life , and at that
saved 68 cents for expenses on the
homeward trip. The Pensacola mer
chant lounged in the lobbies of lead
ing hotels , visited the museums and
other public places , rode on the "sub"
from one end of the town to the other ,
had excellent luncheons served free of
charge by demonstrators in grocery
and department stores , gained several
pounds in physical and mental
weight , and left New York well satis
fied that he had got the full value of
his $3.22.
A physical and mental wreck , unable -
able to work nnd daily growing worse
such is a report from Trenton as to
the condition of James T. Gallagher ,
the man who assaulted Mayor Gaynor
last year and is now serving a sen
tence of twelve years in the New
Jersey state prison. Dr. Henry A.
Cotton , medical director of the New
Jersey state hospital for the insane ,
declares that Gallagher is undoubt
edly mentally unbalanced , and it is
probable that he will end his life In
a lunatic asylum. ijg : ,

he forward march towards the cen
ter was commenced. Most of the far
mers bad taken down their fences at
proper intervals and errected flags ,
so the riders could pass through with
out breaking the lines. Many ladies ,
well mounted , were on the line , and
did as good work as the menfolk. A
number of the wolves tried to escape
through the line before reaching the
center , and bad to bo shot. But the
real sport commenced when the
lounds were let loose in the center
to capture and kill those that were
surrounded by the hundreds of hun
ters. About a dozen were killed al
together.
Only one accident marred the plea
sure of the day's sport Will Waters ,
one of the most expert riders , dis
mounted and In an effort to get a
wolf from the dogs that had him down
under his horse , received two or three
ticks on the face and head from the

but is not serious.
The day was ideal for the hunt , and
will long bo remembered by the four
teen or fifteen hundred people who
were present.

HOW HOUSE FILIBUSTER BEGAN
Crowning Move of Democrats Against
Tariff Board Begins Instantly.
Washington , March 4. The crown
ing move of the house democrats
against the permanent tariff board
bill was sprung by starting a well
organized filibuster to defeat the bill
as soon as the measure as amended
by the senate was offered on the
floor.
The bill was reported to the house
at 8:50 : this morning , having been
rushed over from the senate. Repub-
Mean Leader Pnyno asked unanimous
consent from the house to agree to
the senate amendments. Mr. Foster
of Illinois , a democrat , objected.
Mr. Dalzell of Pennsylvania , chair
man of the rules committee , then re
ported the special so-called force rule
cutting off debate on the bill provid
ing that at once upon adoption of the
rule the previous question bo ordered
on the bill nnd amendments. Mr. Fos
ter retaliated by making the point of
no quorum. The speaker Ignored ttois
movo.
Democrats Break Quorum.

made a point of no quorum and Mr.
Dalzell countered bytnovlng a call of
the house. Many democrats absented
themselves so ns to prolong the pro
ceedings. Mr. Payne indignantly pro
tested and demanded" that the names
of those- leaving the chamber bo re
corded.
A call of the house was refused , 83
to 121.
The house ordered the previous
question and then adopted the resolu
tion for forcing the tariff board bill
through without debate , the vote be
ing 174 tq 126. The straight vote on
the bill Itself was to follow.
Then the republican leaders with
drew the bill.

What on earth is this town going to

this town will need Just what ( Joldlc

Mayor Friday Simply Lied.
Mr. Friday Is determined to cling
to the office of mayor , even If ho haste
to He to do It.
Just why Mr. Friday is so eager to
retain his clutch on the job has not
yet been satisfactorily explained , but
he apparently believes that by attack ,
ing Norfolk Industrie and lying about
them , he can help boost himself back
into the Job which he seems to like
eo well , for a fourth term.
In his anxiety to retain his office ,
Mr. Friday has publicly lied about
The Huse Publishing Co. , apparently
hoping to create a sentiment that
might counteract some of the facts
The News Is going to print about him.
Hi > has also publicly attacked other
industries nnd business men.
In open council meeting in his ca
pacity as mayor , Mr. Friday said The
Huse Publishing Co. was a tax shirker
and in his published letter he says
"the Huge family arc not paying one-
tenth what they should pay" ( In
taxes ) .
As a matter of fact , "the Huses"
paid $421.65 taxes into the treasury of
Madison county last year , which all
fair minded men will agree was a
pretty liberal share toward maintain
ing the county business , including the
lawless expenditure of city money at
the instance of the mayor.
Just why Mayoi Ts-iday should so
maliciously attack an industry which
employs more people and pays out
more money in wages each year than
any other local enterprise , is difficult
to understand.
As to his charge that the Hose Pub
lishing Co. shirks Its taxes , It Is ob
vious that Mayor Friday simply lied.
His &Uack on The News was in line
with the vicious spirit he displayed
toward a new industry , the Norfolk
Chemical & Oil works. In his pub
lished letter he backs down , declaring ,
"I have not a wqrd to say against this
industry in its present location. " It
is well that he hasn't. That doesn't
erase his spiteful slurs cast upon the
enterprise in his harangue to the
council , when he continually referred
to this new factory as a "grease box. "
He says he hasn't "knocked" this new
industry. Perhaps politicians told
him he had macje another blunder.
But if Mr. Friday doesn't call it a
"knock" for the mayor of a city , in a
speech to the council , to slightingly
refer to a factory as "a grease box , "
then we don't know what the word
"knock" means.
Clearly enough , to counteract this
political blunder , the mayor is merely
lying.
Mayor Friday attempts to discredit
the public spirit of The News and its
publishers. In open council meeting
and in a signed letter that he has
caused to be printed , he insinuates
that The Huse Publishing Co. refused
to donate to the fund for buying a
site for the Norfolk Chemical & Oil
factory , the new industry which he
tried to drive out of town. He says
he subscribed to this fund and asks :
"Did Mr. Huse ? "
Mr. Huse certainly did. The Huse
Publishing Co. was one of the first
firms to subscribe to this fund. May
or Friday , now bragging over his do
nation , forgets to say that he at first
flatly refused to give one cent toward
this new Norfolk industry's site , and
that he did not subscribe until busi
ness men bad pleaded with him time
after time and that he only did it then
for political reasons. Just why Mr.
Friday has seen fit , in Ma official ca
pacity as mayor , to say that the pub
lishers of this paper did not subscribe
to that fund , IB not quite clear. .
The fact remains , however , that Mr.
Friday has simply lied about It.
In open council meeting Mayor Fri
day declared that Mr. Huso did not
subscribe to last summer's race meet
guaranty fund.
The Huso Publishing company has
never yet refused to subscribe to any
public fund of this sort , and It not
only subscribed but paid its share of
the shortage last summer , as it always
had In the past.
Again Mr. Friday , using his position
as mayor to assail a private Norfolk
industry , has simply lied.
Mr. Friday denies that he meant to
attack the Commercial club in his
council meeting harangue. If he is
afraid to stand upon his insinuating
assault upon the present Commercial
club , why is it that , although ho Is
mayor of the city , he refuses to belong -
long to the Commercial club ? Why
does he refuse to pay 50 cents n
month , as a business man , to support
this organized effort to make Norfolk
grow ? What kind of a mayor have
we , that is of such small calibre nnd
so lacking in public spirit for the good
of' the town in which ho lives , that ho
refuses to join with other business
men in promoting the city's interests ?
If Mr. Friday Is not an enemy sf the
Commercial club , why doesn't ho join
it ?
Apparently Mr. Friday Is so bent
upon retaining that job of his , and

upon inducing the people to spend
$55,000 while he is in office , for u
municipal light plant that is needless
If the mayor and council will only
protect the public by regulating thoflo
light companies already on the
ground , that he is willing to resort to
any sort of falsehood In order to at
tempt to discredit those who would
like to fiee the mayor's office cleaned
out of its present unfit occupant and
in his place a man who stands for
civl-c decency , for a clean business ad
ministration of the city's affairs , for
the public good instead of personal
punishmentof foes and personal re
wards of henchmen ; and for a man
whoso methods will be unquestionable
and at least in accordance with the
law.
Because The News Is opposed to a
fourth term for a man who has been
guilty of lawless methods and who la
so Intensely anxious to keep that Job
for another term ( for some reason
perhaps beet known to himself ) , its
publishers must be assailed by tbe
mayor of the city with deliberate un
truths , both in a speech and in a pub
lished letter.
Just why bo should have so over
stepped himself , is not apparent to
most people ; but the fact remains
that Mayor Friday has simply lied
and then lied again in his venomous
lishere.
