MAYOR HAS FUN At
MINISTER'S DINNER
Tells Them They Haven't Quite
Reformed World in 1000
Years, So Don't Hurry Him.
CHAMBERLAIN HYDE FRETS
Gaynor s Bodyguard Surprised
He Speaks in Public-Tells
Of Some Complaints He
Gets from Citizens.

Mayor GaynOr delivered his own speech
at a public dinner last night for the first
time since the attempt on his life last
summer. He addressed the four or five
hundred members of the Collegiate Club
of New York. who held their annual din
ner in the grand ballroom of the Wal
dorf, in cornmemoration of the 250th
anniversary of the Collegiate Reformed
Church of Harlem. The gathering was
made up mostly Of church people from
Harlem affiliated with the Dutch Re
formed Church, and many ministers of
that denomination We're present.
The Mayor surprised his audience with
the strength of his voice. and had little
difficulty in making himself heard in all
parts of the ballroom. He told the min
listers and numerous women present that
1t was refreshing to attend a dinner
where there was no tobacco smoke to
smart his eyes. and none of the usual
accessories" which he did not mention.
The Mayor also spoke of the yellow
newspapers that made more noise than
all the rest of the papers put together,
but are of little account"
A Hint to the Clergy.
ITO the ministers who attack me and
ought to know better" he began. I
would say that all these 1000 years they
have been preaching and have not yet
made the people observe the Ten Com
mandments but fairly we'll. though they
expect the Mayor to do it in twenty-four
hours.
The Mayor stole march on some of
his closest friends who are inclined to
constitute themselves as his bodyguard
and went to the dinner alone. They had
admonished him strongly not to attempt
to use his voice and to come home early,
but he stealthily took the matter in his
own hands and whisked to the Waldorf
in his automobile unaccompanied.

London, Nov. 21.-Home Rule for Ire

Meanwhile it is becoming clearer every
day that the veto conference broke down

the subject itself may not have been
specifically mentioned.
Lord Lansdowne. in the House OF
Lords, tonight outlined an alternative
scheme 10 the governments plan for the
readjustment of the relations between
the two houses. and the only essential
difference in this plan from the Liberal
proposal is the provision for referring
any matter OF great gravity which has
not been adequately submitted TO the
judgment of the people for a decision of
the electors by referendum.

Mr.. Fairbanks In responding was as
tactful as ever in giving a toast to "the
Christian Church." making no distinc-
ton of denomination. He took occa-
sion to declare that the Catholic Church
had accomplished great things for the
good of humanity, while the past preju-
dice against Catholics had entirely dis
appeared; that they were ever at the
front when the integrity of the country
or its dignity needed to be upheld. He
then said: 1T is impossible to express
too strongly the work the Christian
Church is doing in all lands and among
all nationalities."
Nobody ever need feel at all afraid
that Vice President Fairbanks will ever
do anything that will hurt the dignity
or honor of Americans.
Mrs. Fairbanks and the former Vice
President were invited by the King and
Queen to attend the court ball. and Mrs.
Fairbanks was singled out for extreme
courtesy, being given a seat among the
royal train, and finally being called to
the Queens side for nearly an hours
talk
