members of the bar and court officials
entertained for the court, wishing him
success in his future field Of labor and
concluded BY presenting the loving cup
Judge Nevius responded and tnere
were tears in his eyes as he accepted the
beautiful gift and told Of his affection
for the donors. He eulogized the differ
ent court officers, and said that he had
tried tostreat everyone alike. He especs
tally appreciated the gift coming as it
did from the common people of which he!
was proud to be one, and said he would
always cherish it among his most valued
possessions.
Prosecutor Speer then aros eand in a
feeling address told of the affection of
the younger members of the bar for the.
retiring Judge, and wished him every
success in his future life You nave a
personality which has impressed itself
on the bar Of this County, and made for
you friends with all with whom you
have come in contact he truthfully de-
clared. Referring to Judge Neyius' re-
mark that he was simply man of the
people the Prosecutor said I'VE know
that you are man of the people and
that your heart beats for the people"
Ex-Judge William ]. Hoffman also de-
livered in address laudatory of the de-
tiring judge and his work here, and the
informal ceremonies ended by all present
grasping the sand of the Judge and wish
ing him every success in life.
That the t turning down. of Judge Ne
vius by Governor Murphy is resented by
the people Of this county was clearly
demonstrated by this mornings gather
ing, and the fact that the Judge has an
nounced his intention of practicing law
here assures continuance of the rela-
tions now existing between the people
and Judge Neyius.

OVATION FOR
JUDGE NEvIUS
His Retirement From the
Bench Marked by a
Tremendous Dem
onstration.
LOVING CUP A PARTING GIFT
Presentation Speech BY w.D.
Edwards Feeling Re
sponse by Judge
Nevius.

Never before in the history of this
County has there been such a demonstra-
ton over the retirement Of Judge of
County court as was witnessed in the
Circuit Court this morning when Judge
Henry NJ. Nevius sat for the last time.
There was no political significance in
the demonstration, although it was not
iceable that a majority of those assem-
bled to do honor to the retiring jurist
were Democrats, and it was perhaps
significant that few lawyers prominently
identified with the Republican organiza-
ton of the County were among those
present. Judge Chas. w. Parker, who
will succeed Judge Nevius in the Circuit
Court on Monday, was not there.
The gathering was remarkable in that
it was sontaneous outpouring of per-
sons desiring to testify their kindly re-
gard for the man who had come among
them a comparative stranger and in a
short time through his uprightness, uni
form courtesy and democratic manners
had won his way into their affections,
and there was not one among those who
crowded the little court room who did
not say amen to the sentiments express
ed by the several speakers.
The event was a complete surprise to
Judg Nevius, who was visibly affected
by what transpired. His eyes filed with
tears and his voice was choked by emot-
ion, when ex-senator Edwards, in be
half of the officers of the court, present
ed him with a magnificent solid silver
loving cup. !
The cup, a beautiful specimen of the
silversmith's art, was selected by Clerk
Wm. j. Ball. It was manufactured by
the firm Of Borneman & Sons, New
York, and is 10 inches high, and stands.
on asolid ebony pedestal Of about the
same height Silver handles are at
either side and a wreath of silver flowers
encircles the bowl. On one side is the
inscription:-'P Presented to Hon. Henry
NJ. Nevius, Circuit Court Judge of the
State of New Jersey for Hudson Coun-
ty, March 81, 1903. On the reverse are
engraved the names Of the court officers
who made the gift as follows:-Wm. ].
Ball, Clerk; Richard w. Dewey, Ser,
geant-at-Arms; George H. Bowley, Court
Crier; Harry K. Bender, Stenegrapher.
Officers: Edgar Fl. Carragan, Thomas,
Doyle, James Farrill, Andrew Girschen,
Michael Kohl VIM, Henry John sHo-
gan, Alfred Mansfield, James McMahon,
Charles Strathman, William Thompson
When Judge Nevius shortly after ten
o'clock ascended the bench the court
room was crowded with lawyers, County
court officers, a number of G. A. r.
men and other citizens. A few minor
legal matters were presented to the court
and disposed of when Judge Nevius,
about to briefly announce his retirement,
asked if there was any further business
before the court. Then ex-senator VIM.
D. Edwards stepped forward and made

PIER LINE EXTENSION ASKED

The New Jersey Board OF Riparian
Commissioners met yesterday afternoon
in the Commercial Trust Building and
considered number of applications for
riparian rights on the Passaic, Raritan
and Delaware Rivers, and on the Ocean
front. 4 grant of 400 feet on the Past
sale was made to the Patton Paint Com
pany, at Woodside. at $3.50 a foot. A
rebate of $3.50 foot on the above price
was afterwards consented to in consider
alton of the improvements already made
by the company.
Elmer T. Butler, of Perth Amboy, was
granted 100 feet on Staten Island Sound
at SO foot.
The Gloucester Land and Iron Com
pany, of Camden made application for a
grant on the Delaware. The application
was laid over because it was understood
that the American Ship Building Com
pany, which made similar application
and in which Attorney General Gray is
interested, was to be merged with the
Gloucester firm.
Two hundred feet on the Raritan was
granted to the Second National Bank,
of Red Bank, at SO foot.
Thomas f. Sumner secured ocean
rights at Bradley Beach at S5 foot.

there amt anywhere that man can't

"Ive seen this illustrated in my
own business: as matter of fact, in
my own experience.
I've wasted many and many a
night dreamin' of robbn' banks, max
in, in my mind, million dollars at a

didn't have half as lofty ideas about

Decrease of tuberculosis.

1t is comfort to reflect that con.
sumption has decreased 395 per cent
in its death records since 1910. Pneu-
monia may be more devastating or
not, but it can never have the dread
to its name that consumption has
had. for pneumonia is disease Which
usually yields to scientific treatment
and the resistance of good constitu-
ton, but consumption is natures
worst treachery to humanity.
