classes; TO plant vial centers in the
cities, going TO make life truer. nobler

He further said: Its work is to pro-
vide neutral grounds between capital
and labor. There is no su2n ground
between the capitalist and leoorer to-
day No understanding between the
two at all. Men from both sides by this
social settlement may learn to UNDER

MEMORIAL SERVICE.
Tribute TO the Memory Of the Late
Dr. W. 4. Goton.
Touching EuIogy by Hon. Raihhons Gard
ner Of The Board Of Trustees.

A memorial service for the late DIR.
william Arthur Gorton was held at Ray
Hall. Butler Hospital, yesterday after
noon, the exercises being held in res
ponse TO a general desire upon the part
of the trustees, employees and patients
to pay some fitting tribute to the MEM
ory of Dr. Gorton. While no invita-
tions were ISSUED, and none but those
who were i'm some way connected with
the institution were present, the at
tendance was sufficient TO almost fill
the hall.
The religious services were conducted
by Rev. G. A. L. Richards, ID. d., rec
tor Of St. Johns Episcopal church. and
were of very simple character. The
memorial address was then delivered
by Hon. Rathbone Gardner member
of the board OF trustees, who said in
substance:
"Dr. Gorton was n man OF marked
ability who might have won distinction
in almost any walk OF life. he showed
this characteristic in the choice OF his
career. Knowing that he had the abil-
ity 10 take up things which would have
brought him wealth and power, he
chose life or Self-aDnesation ana con-
tinuous unremitting toll. The manner
i'm which he performed his work was
equally noticeable. for he never shirked
any task that came 10 him or failed TO
fulfill any obligation. Another charac-
teristc he had. He never lest sight OF
the purpose of his work; the end which
he was 70 accomplish. He never sought
lf-aggrandiZement at the expense OF
his duty toward those for whom he was
laboring. One other quality of Dr. Cor
tons character never failed to impress
everyone with whom he came in con-
tact. With the great responsibilities
that rested upon him and the cares that
were continually assailllng him. and
which must have sorely tried him at
times. he always found IL possible to
carry with him cheer and sympathy
for everyone.
He never considered any extra labor
given him TO perform as "A burden. but
rather as privilege. / know that none
of you ever heard an unkind word from
him or suffered from any impatience
on his part. Association with him un-
der any circumstances was a blessing
and a privilege. We all think as we
sit here that we would give much IL we
could adequately express our anprecia-
tion for what he has done for us and
what he has been 10 us. The fullest
testimony that we can bear TO this APP
probation is to strive to emulate his
example i'm our lives
The services were concluded with the
benediction. pronounced by DR.. Rich

and the object OF the competitors was
not quite clear. At any rate every one
had any amount of fun. and the pennies
went into the guild house. The success

Mr.. CrOker's Friends il Up.

Witnesses testify before the Mazet COM
rIlittes in New York to the rare value of
Mr. Cookers friendship. AS evidence of the
high regard in which this friendship is held
by them, they tell of blocks of stock and
proportions of commissions given to the
Tammany boss. not on account of any con-
tracts but merely as tokens of esteem.
Mr.. Croker is clearly a man much sought
after by those who have business TO do
with the city. The surety companies, the
construction companies, the gas companies,
all kneal at his feet with sacrificial Offer
ings. 1t comes easy" to him. He accepts
these tributes as a matter Of course. His
friendship consists in passing the good
word along the municipal line TO those who
know how to interpret it, He stands to win
in any event. a man who has friendship to
dispose of at this rate is lucky indeed. But
what about this friendship when the s..ain
comes? Does 1t tide a man over the stress
of difference of opinion as to the morals
of a publiC act? Does 1t eXcuSe an infrac
ton OF the spoiLs rule? Does it shield in
honest judge who seeks to do his duty?
There seems to be something very fragile
in the composition of this wonderful conf
modify. Mr.. Cookers friendship. He holds
To il as long as it is To his interest to do so,
But the boss is supreme and can do no
wrong.
