1ILLMAN SPEAKS TO IRISH
Speaks About Our Wars and Other
r1atterS.


New York, Special.-Under the aus.
pices Of the Clan-Na- Geal, the one
hundred and twenty-fourth anniyer.
sary Of the birth Of Robert Emmet
was celebrated Sunday night at the
Academy of Music. A large crowd was
in attendance State Senator Victor j..
Bowling presided. United States Sen
ator Benjamin r. Tillman, of South
Carolina, delivered the Grafton. Reso-
lutions were adopted condemning
England's colonial policy, deprecating
entangling alliances by the United
States with other nations, sympathiz-
ing with the Beers, protesting against
the United States Government allow
ing England to use the United States
ports for the fitting out Of vessels In
which to ship her horses and mules,
and pledging the people of Ireland
hearty support in their struggle for
freedom. Senator Tillman was receiy-
ed with great applause. He said:
Il am no orator and II / have any
claim to it, it is because l speak the
truth and fight the devil with fire.
"Well," came voice from the audi
ence, "If you're not al orator, you're
good fighter"
A little later he said: 81 was afraid
would have to postpone my visit be-
cause of an incident you all probably
recently read about, that occurred TO
me in Washington, but one OF your
committee came to Washington and
with his Irish eloquence made me
promise to be on hand unless | was
in Jail. Now, here am, so take good
look at me, for l am going to talk
plainly"
The Senator launched into an at
tack upon England for trampling un-
der the Irish. For long centuries the
Irish have been trampled upon and
murdered by the English" said he,
"and it may not be amiss to here
state that chickering's and petty
suuabbles among Ireland's own sons
have been responsible for her condl-
tions today. They make grand soldiers
for her away from home, but fail to
show their qualities in her own be-
half"
Turning from this subject, he said
in strenuous tones: If being a
flunkey and aping nobility and estab-
fishing a system that Is akin to Eng
lands policy is making Tories OF u.s.
then think we are there at last, or
at least the Government at Washing
ton has got there. England" con.
tinued the Senator, "can sQuint and
shake its thumbs at us and say Your
work in the Philippine is as bad as
ours in the Transvaal.' Why have we
got such a Government? There is the
rub. Why do you pass resolutions such
as you have tonight and on other oc-
casions, and then go out and vote Tor
those who are sitting liberty at Wash
ington? We are losing our love for our
institutions, and if We continue thus
we will go the way of other repuD-
lics.'
Senator Tillmap then said the
American people were slaves to party
ism and could get along without a
"boss," who, he predicted. in time
would betray the people.

was created at the home of John b.
Fleming, 216 New Castle St, Wednes-
day afternoon, when it was discovered
that a structural steel man. employed
at the car works and boarding at Flem-
ipg's, was suffering from smallpox in a
mild form. When the announcement
was made the twenty-three other board
ers all steel workers grabbed their
clothes and hiked for the woods nor
cast one lingering glance behind. Health
officer McQuistion was at once notified
and the Fleming residence was quar-
antined.
Wednesday evening joint meeting
at the Board of Health and the Town
Council was held and it was decided to
build temporary frame hospital on toe
car works grounds where any invalids
and those quarantined would be kept
until danger is past.

Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers
| united shows are exploiting feature
this season which eclpses in point of
sheer daring anything ever attempted in
| any arena. 1t is the famous Dia valo in
''his looping the loop" on a bicycle, an
act which created the profoundest sensa-
tion in New York city and Philadelphia
and elicted more praise and was given
more space in the metropolitan press
than any single act ever presented to
the public.
Looping the loop is described as danger
| deriding and death defying, which is as
near correct as words can make it. From
| the extreme height of the canvas dome
Diavalo makes thrilling decent down
the narrow plane on bicycle and the
momentum thus gained carries him
| around the loop at terrific rate of
speed. At the top of the loop both
rider and wheel are upside down and
! going at the rate of 40 miles an hour.
1t is hair raising act and one that all
should see, as it gives practical dem
onstraticn of the first scientific lesson
of youth-the swinging in a circle of a
bucket full Of water without spilling.
The date of the show here is Saturday,
