want to mako this statement. had
the privilege to-day TO be q guest at
the Rotary Club luncheon in Brooklyn
and TO listen to the address given by
Mayor Hylan. Just before the Mayor
came In was talking TO my friend,
Herbert F. Gunnison, of The Brooklyn
Daily Eagle about the Mayor and Of
different things l had heard concerning
him. Incidentally, Mr.. Gunnison told
me that he knew Mrs. Hyian persc nally
and that she was q very cultured
woman. and that few years ago az
Palm Beach Mayor Hylan had told him
that he, the Mayor, had had little edu-
.ation, and that all he was he owed to
his wife, who had helped him all his
lifetime.
81 then told Mr. Gunnison Of joke
which has gone all over Great Britain,
md. / believe. America, too, about
Mayor HyIan's wife-how that when
the Prince Of Wales was in New York
n his best Oxford English he spoke in
lowing terms of this great city, and
hat Mrs. Hvian had answered, 80 the
tory goes, Gee, you've said q mouth
'ul!'
"Mr. Gunnison was indignant and
said on che spot that 1t was a lie. and
hat when the story had reached him
t was TO the Queen Of the Belgians
: he Mayoress was supposed to have
aid 1t. and another man present at the
BILE said that he heard chat it was
the King of the Belgians, and that

Resolved by the Tamarora Club,
that the enrolled Democrats Of this
district, realizing that the only way
to defeat Murphy Is to defeat his can

success of the Curran Lockwo Cd -Sllroy
ticket as the only common sense way
to bring the boss Of Tammany Hall to
understand that he cannot deliver the
Democratic people of the five boroughs
of this city as so much chattei at any
time and for any candidate he chooses
and that this committee will string a
banner across the street in front OF its
clubhouse to call everybody's attention
to the fact that decent New York City
