John W. Bookwalter, of Ohio. whose
views on Russia were published in dis
patch from here to the Associated Press
under date of December q, is returning to
the United States with the intention of
travels In Siberia. Incidentally, this work
will be a plea for an American alliance
with Russia instead of Great Britain. He
says his observations in this country have
strengthened his pro-Russian views and
adds:
"The interests of the United States and
England are radically antasonistic. and
the attempt to foster an alliance is an arti-
fetal movement. so far as England Is con-
cerned. 1t has not captured the hearts of
the people and is merely political device
with two aims. First. to divert America S
attention from conflicting interests in her
own hemisphere. Second, to make the
United States Great Britain's cats paw in
thinks that If she can point to the United
States as an ally, she will be able to eX-
tort better terms from Russia. What
America wants in the East Is trade and she
will do more by cooperation with Russia
than by antagonizing Russia. The latter
already practically controls China and will
give the United States what she wants. If
friendly. 1t would be madness for England
and America to attempt to coerce Russia
into concessions. The combined nations Of
the world could not whip Russia, any more
than they could the United States The
most they could do would be to lombard
a few coast towns while Russia's railroads
could pour so many soldiers into China
that any the United States and Great
Britain could send would be a handful in

that the junction with the Lackawan-
ma tracks will be made at the arch
bridge over the Whippany River, in
stead of in the rear of the freight
house as at present. This will give
much better connection enabling
passengers from the Whippany River
Railroad to disembark at the sta
ton platform. The plan proposed
for the depression of Morris street
entails but little damage to adjacent
property, the Lackawanna Co. owning
the greater part of the frontage effect

LONG HILL.

The exhibition given by the Stirling
Public School, last Friday evening
was very fine in every respect. The
whole entertainment was above the
average in every way. The parts
were exceedingly we'll taken and rem
dered by all the speakers. The Ger
man singing club very kindly gave
the use of their hall, and aided very
materially, by singing number of
fine songs. A pleasing feature of
the gathering was the presence OF
of such large number or the patrons
of the school, showing very healthy
condition of public sentiment in the
town of Stirling, a commendable
spirit which is perhaps more promi-
nently displayed there than in any
other portion of Passaic Township.
The whole entertainment was a rare
treat highly appreciated by the audi
ence, rejecting great credit on the
skill and ability displayed by the
principal, Mr.. Henry Laird, and his
efficient teachers, Miss Anna f.
McGrath and Miss Katie K. Pruden.
The key note of the entertainment
was struck by the three Italian must
clans, who produced some excellent
music from concertinas which were
brought with them from their native
land. The Athletic club performed
some feats of skill at the close when
the floor was cleared and dancing

Wednesday, Oct. 18th, was "Dona-
ton Day" at the Ridgely Home for Or
phans of Odd Fellows of New Jer-
sey, at North Arlington, and it was a
great success. The visitors numbered
some three hundred, who were highly
pleased with what they saw and the
manner in which they were treated.

flag was thrown to the breeze and
greeted with cheers; the funds for
the flag and staff were raised through
the efforts of Mrs. Ida L. Stage,

followed.

ports to the Sovereign Grand Lodge
on the present state of each branch Of
the order. Mr. Stage thanked those
who had contributed to the home and
in other ways helped to make it q
success.
Dinner was served to about one
hundred and fifty persons.
The donations were much larger
than on former occasions. -Four hun
bred dollars in cash has already been
received and more is reported in the
hands of committees. The home is in
a condition highly pleasing to the
managers and deserves to receive
liberal support and encouragement.
