clared, had struck him in the mouth.
Marshal Mcguire prevailed upon Mr..

famous Velasquez picture, known as
the "Rokeby Venus" which is hung

the government for destroying Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhurst, who is the
most beautiful character in modern
history
The woman entered the gallery and
attacked the picture with q sharp
knife, making six or seven bad cuts
across the canvas. She was arrested.
The perpetrator of the outrage is
notorious militant suffragette, who
has been sentenced to several terms
of Imprisonment since the beginning
of the woman's suffrage militant
movement. She was arrested at Bris-
tol on July last year for dropping

Miss Anne Morgan Urges
Local Girls to Sdue Funds
Daughter of Late Financier
Speaks Before Vacation
Savings Club.

Miss Anne Morgan, daughter of the
late ]. Plerpont Morgan, addressed
working girls at the Hamburg Place
School last night. Her talk was in
the interest of the vacation fund for
working girls. to which proposition
Miss Morgan has devoted consider
able of her time. not alone in enlarg-
ing the number of depositors, but in
teresting other prominent women in
New York and elsewhere.
Her subject last night was What
the Vacation Fund Has Meant to Eif-
teen Thousand Girls" Several dozen
stereopticon views showing scenes at
summer resorts where working girls
may spend pleasant vacation were
flashed on the screen.
The movement was started with a
view to helping working girls to help
themselves in the way of saving
enough money to spend a few days
at the seashore or mountains during
the summer months. The plan is to
have girls purchase stamps which
represent the amount paid in These
stamps are redeemable at their face
vaule when the depositor is ready
to go on her vacation in the summer.
Miss Morgan declared the work was
cooperative, the sole object being to
give the thrifty girl an opportunity
to use her savings to the best adVan-
tage. The movement is less than
three years old 1t was started in
New York by forty three working
girls, whose deposits totaled s27.
Last year 5000 girls had deposited
$4,000. and this year there are 10000
girls, whose total deposits are esti-
mated to reach 100000.
Excursions are held every third
Sunday of the month, and last night
Miss Morgan invited her hearers to
join them in the excursion that is

PATERSON. March 10.-Today is
registry day in the Seventh congress
sional district, when citizens are reg
istering to vote at the special primary
and election day set by Governor
Fielder for the election of a success
sor to the late Representative Robert
Gum Bremner. The date set for the
primary is March "a; election day,
April 7. Throughout the day the
registration was light. 1t was neces-
sary only for those who did not
vote at the last general election to
register today.
With eleven Republicans engaged in
a wrangle for the nomination and the
Denocrats engaged in what may turn
out 10 be a bitter fight between Sena-
tor Hughes and the Democratic
County Committee, the Socialists or
Passaic county may succeed in send
ing their candidate, Gordon Demarest,
silk mill owner, to the halls OF
Congress.
The leaders of the Socialist party
are enthusiastic over the outlook and
are bending every energy to get their
party men to register. DemareSt ran
for mayor in Paterson last fall and
pollcd 400 votes. There are 900 or
more Socialist voters in the city of
Passaic and if Demarest succeeds in
polling the entire strength of his
party on election day, providing the
voters of the old time parties do not
come out in goodly numbers, the
Socialists will have a splendid chance
to win It is understood that Social
lists throughout the country are much
interested in the situation in the
Seventh district and will send the
sinews of war into the county to help
along the cause.

nothing short of a riot.
So acute became the situation that
the police had to interfere with drawn
clubs, and before order was re-estab-

DIFFER WIDELY ON

LONDON, March 10.-The possi-

sions offered in the House of Com

The independent opinion of the
country seems inclined to the feeling
that the concessions offer an oppor-
tunity for eonciliation. and this feel
ing is strengthened by Sir Edward
Carsons counter offer. on behalf OF
the Ulster conference, providing the
limitation on the exclusion of the
northern counties to a period of six
years be struck out.
1t is pointed out here in parlia-
mentary circle that the recognition
by the cabinet and tie Natlonilists of
the principle of the exclusion of the
counties of Ulster If they vote in
favor Of it, even if the exclusion be
only temporary, is a great step in
advance from last years policy Of
full steam ahead
This attitude of the cabinet and
the Irish Nationalists, it is argued
IL A. -
three weeks for which the debate on
the home rule has been adjourned.
King George is believed to have had
a hand in inducing Premier Asquith
to make the proffered concessions
and it is contended that if his majesty
continues his activity in this respect
the two parties may be enabled to
bridge over the differences separating
them.
The stumbling blocks i'm the way OF
a. settlement of the Irish question are
the "die-hard" Unionlsts, who want
general election at any cost, in the
hope of defeating the government;
and also the Nationallsts who fol-
low William O'Brien and are opposed
to any kind of exclusion being
granted to Ulster. 1t is doubtful

go in the way Of plaeating the Ulster
Unionists.
Lord Mcdonnell, Liberal peer,
who was permanent under secretary
of reland from 1902 to 1903, said to-
day that the government proposals
seemed to furnish a basis for a set
tlement. Lord Dunraven, C0nserva-
tive Irish peer, expressed doubt
whether Premier Asquiths offer
would bring about a satisfactory solu-
tion.

The total number of persons who
