its widest and yet most attractive

In the early days of the past century
the town was one of the largest in
dustrial centers in the East.
All roads led to Allaire, and they
were traversed by heavily laden wag-
ons carrying crude materials to the
town or taking away the manufactured
product.
This continued for a period of TWEEN
ty odd years. The town grew and
prospered.
For half a century, however. 1t has
shown little activity or life, and If it
were not for the many visitors who,
prompted by curiosity or real interest,
visit the place the town would be both
dead and deserted.
Although the natural beauty of the
location would suggest the idea that
there was some utopian scheme behind
It's founding. 1t was plain business

Allaire might still have retained some
OF its former glory.
The establishment of an iron smelt-
ing works at Allaire marked It's in
ception. The panic of 1897 crippled
Mr. Allaire financially and 1t was fol-
lowed some years later by the discov-
cry Of improved methods of combus-
ton in the refining of iron ore. These
were the beginning of the downfall OF
the town, which resulted ultimately
in the enforced abandonment OF a
plant which at that time contained
one of the finest iron smelling fur
naces in the world.

Currency was scarce in those days
and in 1884 lot of bronze coins, one
and two cents. and bills from six and
quarter cents to SIS were placed ir
circulation.
The right % put the money in circu.
latlon was discussed by the lawyers OF
that time. but 1t was accepted, and
passed by the people of the town as
good as the currency of the federal
government. The name of Allaire on
it was considered a sufficient guarantee
that II would be paid.
Mr. Allaire, who had extensive
works in New York city. suffered in
the panic of 1897. and the plant in
New York passed into other hands.
Improved methods OF combustion in
the smelling OF ore followed and II
was not long before 1t was evident
that iron could not be produced in the
Howell plant as cheaply as elsewhere.

THE ARMY oANTEEN.



Tie use of spirituous liquors has
been established in the British army
for many years and the issuance is
still carried on in the same manner
that it was years ago, writes an Am
erican correspondent with the Eng
lish column in South Africa.
do not think there is as much to-
bacco used in the British army as in
ours. although | have nothing but per-
sonal observation to judge by in the
supposition but the Britisher wants
his "grog" in the army quite the same
as in the navy. The issue is about
half a gil! of rum per day. The quail
ity used is of the very best known,
and it comes from a stock bought by
the government in Jamaica about 40
years ago The last OF that old sup
ply is now being used. The use of Ii
quor as a part of the ration in the
British army is almost as old as the
army itself, and although it has been
fought by prohibitionists for several
years it still continues. There is not
enough issued to cause any intoxica-
ton, and the use of the amount which
the men receive undoubtedly works
effectively against drinking to excess.
A man naturally wants what he can
not have, and If he is denied the use
of liquor he Immediately Graves II, and
to satisfy that crave he takes too
much.

Reluctantly Mr.. Allaire announced
in 1916 that he could make no more
iron and the death-knell of the town
was sounded.
The closing of the iron furnace was
followed by the closing of other fac
tories in the town and gradually the
population dwlndlcd down to few
who held on to the old place.
In 1886 Mr.. Allaire projected a rail
road to the town of Allaire, but he
was dissuaded from undertaking it's
erection by some of his friends who
feared ii could not be carried through
successfully.
Had he carried out his ideas the
history of Allaire might have been far
different.
Hal Allaire, the son of the old man,
Is a graduate OF Columbia and a man
of much learning, yet he, for some
unknown reason, has buried himself
among his ruins.
He was left the major portion of the
estate by his father and the will was
contested. In 1876 the New York courts
ucClutu III his ldNOT anu lie was leIl
in undisputed possession of a strange
legacy.
He has lived the life of a quiet coun-
try farmer. and because OF the many
difficulties to be surmounted he never
attempted to restore the town to it's
former industrial activity.
Mr.. Allaire is highly esteemed by his
friends, and while the ruins undoubt-
edly remind him of the greatness of
the past, yet he takes an active interest
in the affairs of the county and acts
as postmaster for the present town of
Allaire.
On Sunday he conducts a Sunday
school in the old school building.

the owner of the land, son of the man

1t is still standing, a silent and ma
iestic monument to the methods of the
early days. and through its agency was
cast some of the iron which reyolu-
tionized water travel and created a
new era in the method of transporta-
ton.
When Mr. Allaire took hold of the
old Howell furnace that section OF
Monmouth county was wilderness.
There was a fair water power, by
means of which the old furnace had
been operated, and this was greatly
improved. The pine trees in that sec
tion had been stripped by the charcoal
burners. A tract of land comprising
one shousand acres was purchased and
more charcoal was made.
The stone for buildings was brought
from Nyack and the brick needed was
made there.
In 1928 the Howell Works company
was incorporated and James P. Allaire
was elected president. In 1881 the com
pany was sold out and bought in by
James p. Allaire as an individual.
After acquiring the property Mr.. AL
laire made further improvements. A
modern furnace for smelling iron was
built, which is standing today as
strong as it was the day it was
erected.
Roads were improved to Red Bank
and Occanport, where piers were con-
structed and line of sloops was OPP
Grated to New York City.
The first steamboat built was the
Yolas, the second Osiris, followed by
the Isis and the 1918.
Comfortable houses were built for
employees and from 1884 to 1887 Allaire
was at the height of its prosperity. The
big furnace was in operation, there
was a grist mill, bakery, store. car
penter Shop, screw factory and about
