A Present From the Famous London
Artist Ellis Roberts.
We take pleasure in presenting to
the patrons of THE CHRONICLE, a
half-tone cut Of Vice Chancellor Henry
@. Pitney, reproduced from photo
graph of an oil portrait Of the Vice
Chancellor painted by Ellis Roberts,
the London painter, famous for his
portraits of famous English beauties
Mr.. Pitney made the acuuaintence of
Mr.. Roberts some nine years ago while
in Paris with his daughter, Mrs.
johnson and her daughter. Mr.. Rob
erts and family were stopping at the
same hotel and they we're thrown to-
gether in visit to an art gallery.
The acquaintance thus formed in a
cursory manner ripened into warm
friendship as they met In succeeding
years, and last summer Mr.. Pitney
was Invited by Mr.. Roberts to go to
England and have his portrait painted
without charge as a mark of respect
ON the part OF the artist. He did SO
and the result is a striking likeness to
which the Photographic reproduction
does but scapt justice.
Mr.. Roberts was born in Stafford

CARE OF ANIMALS.

s. r. c. A. Receives Many Complaints
OF Mis-Treating of Animals.
The Morris County Society for the
Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals has
many complaints between October and
May Of the animals that are unfortu
nate enough to be the property Of men
who are SO cruel as to leave their
beasts out at night without proper
shelter in the cold season. AS there
is law to prevent this sort of neglect,
the S. P. q. A. insists upon the en-
forcement of the law.
In winter also there are numerous
cases of horses and cows that are
starved to death, or else almost to
death, shut up in old and cold barns,
with little or no attention because the
owner, lacking work, prefers to econ
omize on the animal that is bringing
him in no returns for his keep, and he
takes the chances of the poor beasts
existing until the grass comes and
work begins in the spring, instead of
selling the animal to some one who
will provide for it.
During the winter which now has
begun, the S. p. @. A. will be glad to
receive complaints of such cases, ad-
dressed TO the s. r. G. A., 10 Norris
street, MorriStwn.

The fire department was called out
at three O'Clock Sunday afternoon for
fire in the old Catholic church, now
the property Of Cornelius Hally and
standing on the corner of Maple ave-
nue. and Madison street. 1t is occu-
pied BY a number of fanatics. The
rooms where the fire started we're oc-
cupied by Peter McDermott The fire
started in an attic room, boy named
Cook, who was to have been taken to
the Burnham Home on Monday, hay-
ing started a match, accidentally as
he states. The match set fire to some
mating, and that to goods in a closet,
with the result that the roof OF the
building at that corner was burned
and the side of the building Quilted BY
the quantity of water which was
poured on to extinguish the flames.
The loss is mainly by water and has
not as vet been ascertained.

Merchants feather and Discuss Pos
sibalitles of New Business.
A meeting to consider the possibil-
ity of securing more industries for
Morristown was held in the county
haIl Thursday afternoon, with good
attendance of local business men.
George e. voorhees, was elected chair
man Of the meeting and Stephen @.
Griffith, Jr., secretary. Mr. Voorhees,
in assuming the chair said that trade
is steadily going away from Morris
town or being kept away. He believed
that we should have factories, also
trolleys running east and west as well
as north and south and also a sewer
system. The Park is an example OF a
start in improving conditions. Half
of the walk has been paved largely at
private expense Now we have the
town authorities reporting balance
Of 10000. Why don't they fix up the
restIof the Park? (? The money should
all be spent in improvements. He
said that the talk Of the wealthier
class being opposed to progressiyeness
is a mistake. Some Of all classes are
opposed to anything in the line Of
progress. but the great body Of the
wealthier citizens are as anxious as
anybody for the town to progress.
Fl. G. Reynolds who was present
was called upon and said he thought
it good thing for the merchants to
get together for the improvement Of
conditions. A factory cannot be found
in day. He told OF some inquiries
he had made as to possible additions
to the industries and how factory own
ers desiring a change might be reached.
r. w. McEwan, who was also pres
ent was asked as to railroad facilities
and explained at some length the ad-
vantages which Morristown now has.
He said that of course his interests
were along the same line as those who
desired factories, because factories

that. All along the line from Norris
town to Monroe, or even Whippanys
are hundreds of acres valuable only
for factories or for business purposes
and so located that there presence
would not be apparent to the residents
generally. Near at hand, in the Col
linsville district, are many more acres
Of high land available for homes. He
thought that the idea is not to drive
anybody out OF town, but to bring in.
He had planned to advertise the adj
vantages in rates, land. water, etc.
along his line, but felt that the inter
ests are mutual.

the business and took lessons in art
for the. purpose Of decorating pottery.
His father died poor while he was still
quite young and he supported himself
by painting china. He saved enough
to take lessons in art in Paris and
London, and then established a studio
in London where he was compelled for
a time to subsist on bread and mar
malade and slept on the floor. A
painting of an uncle, taken to London
to be framed, attracted the attention
of a man named Shaw who became his
patron and brought him to the atten-
tion Of the Earl of Albermarle, the
portrait of whose daughter he painted
which brought him into prominence
and started him on the highway to
success. Since then he has painted por-
traits of many persons of note among
whom are Princess Louise, a daughter
of the late Queen Victoria Lady
Henry Somerset and her sister, the
Duchess of Bedford Lady Arthur
Butler, Lord and Lady Mimic and
their children, the late Duchess Of
Cleveland, mother Of Lord Roseberry i;
Lady Chesterfield, the Duchess Of
Leinster, who is a noted beauty; the
Duchess of Westmoreland, Lady War
wick, the Countess of Clonmell, Earl
Gray, the present Governor-G General of
Canada; Baroness Halkett, a sister Of
Anson Phelps. Stokes, and Arthur
Balfour, Premier of England.

health had compelled his resignation
from the staff of the Morris Academy
and he had started with his sister,
Mrs. Meddaugh, on Thursday for Cal

For many years he maintained a

better health, and last year taught in
the Academy.
Although feeble in body his mind
remained acute to the end. His
speciality was Latin and Greek and
he had few equals as a teacher Of
those languages. He was great

in, the father, was a mason BY trade,
building many houses hereabout, and
later started a meat market.
John d. Guerin was born on the old
Guerin homestead, near Morristown,

his fathers market and was soon Sir-
Itually given charge of the business.
With the exception of perhaps three

money and work-hard work, but the
merchant should regard money and
effort as the same kind OF investment
as the placing Of new wares on his
shelves. No half hearted work will
bring the result. Every merchant
should be enlisted in the work and
made to toe the line.
John Chapman told Of two indust-
ries for which new locations are de-
sired that have come within his no
tice recently, but said that the busi-
ness men must be united before a
successful effort can be made to get
them.
Fritz Norby urged that organization
be effected and something be done for
the business interests.
J. H. Wulfers lamented that all the
signers Of the call we're not present,
declaring that the first push is the
best.
On motion of George II. Dalrymple,
the chairman was instructed to APP
point committee Of five to go over
the matter and report at meeting to
be called later. Chairman Voorhees,
was, ON motion, made one of the com
mitee and announced that he would
name the othermembers later.

termined on. The news was quite a
surprise to the friends of the happy
pair, although surmises had been float
ing around for some time Congratu-
