Grand Army Veteran In
structs His Widow to Bury
Him to the Music Of a
Brass Band
GOOD CHEER FOR the BOYS
DECEASED BELIEVED IN MI'fI-
GATED WOE AND DIED UP TO
HIS PRINCIPLES.

When Charles Heller, an old Grand
Army veteran, and a men.be, of the
George II. Thomas Post, isy dying at
his home, No. % Cambridge avenue, last
Saturday, he called his e-ss. TO his bed
side and instructed her to hire brass
band for his funeral out of the $500
which the Post allows the widow of each
member on his death, and to use the bal
ance of it in securing refreshments for
the boys after they had laid him away.
He had always maintained in life that
while funerals should be conducted in
decent and sober manner that there
should be enough cheer to somewhat les
sen the sadness of the parting.
The deceased was one of the one hun
drsd charter members of the George II.
Thomas Post, only forty-dye of whom
now survive. He was sixty-one years
old and was a successful builder. His
instructions to his wife concerning the
500 were carried out to the letter. Ine
forty-fve grizzled veterans of the Post
gathered to a man to do honor to his
memory They were old comrades who
seen the deceased distinguish himself by
bravery exhibited on the battlefield of
IL,

fell into line with military precision and
as guard of honor started on a mile
march TO the Jersey City Cemetery at
the top Of the Newark avenue hill. Every
man of them tried to keep back tears in

rade expressed before his death, but the

The band played while the clods Of earth
fell on the coffin and then the boys"
faced about and marched back to Mer-
der's Hall, at Cambridge avenue and
Hutton street. After paying for the band
there was enough left out of the $100 for
a splendid luncheon. At the table was
q vacant chair draped in mourning coll
ors. CARRYING out the wishes of their
departed comrade the old veterans, how
ever, drank to Heller, as the drinks were
.'on him. The band played lively airs.
and one of the t'boys' whose voice had
charmed his other comrades in campfire
days, but is now cracked and husky,
sang
"'Twas a jolly cid builder long ago,
Tall and slender and sallow and dry.
His form was bent and his gait was slow,
And his hair was white as the riven
snow.
But a wonderful twinkle shone in lis
eye,
And he sang every night when he went
to bed:
sTet US be happy down here below,
The living must live tho the dead be
dead.'
Sang the jolly old builder. long ago."
The veterans bowed their heads in 81
ieacs for fully niinure after the singer
was through. Then another struck up
the song. For He Was a Jolly Good
hellow,' and every one of the old vets
Joined in heartily.

When Mayor Pagan and George l..
Record were invited to Washington to
dine with President Roosevelt last winter
the Faganites were in high glee. It
meant the finish Of all the postmasters
against whom Mayor Pagan had filed
charges because tkey wouldn't vote for
his candilars for chairman Of the County
Csmmirsss. That is the way they rea-
ssnsd il cat and even the Fagan organ
asxsunced at the time that the President
vas n favor of the movement to smash
the regular organization. Now that the
charges have been dismissed by Post
master General Cortelyou as hardly
worthy of notice, the Faganites are
doing some tall thinking. They don't
think as much Of the President OF Post
master General as they did few months
ago.

just imagine the nerve of this man
Because he is thoroughly familiar with
hospital work he wants to eliminate poll
tics from its management and put the
institution on higher plane than it ever
has been. He told the Commissioners
this in a letter. That was the signal for
row. 1t put Jimmy Connolly and
the others of Mayor Fagan's political
advisers up in the air, and they decided
then and there to have Stohlman's scalp.

politics? Not if they knew it. There
are some good jobs at the hospital and
if Stohlman were allowed to have his
own way and manage the hospital only
for the good of the city, what would be-
come of the Faganites holding the places
under him. Why they might be dismiss
ed for incompeteney, and that would
never do.

Sheriff Kaiser isn't worrying to any
great extent over the movement of the
Faganites to take from him the fees for
feeding the prisoners in the County Jail.
He has the opinion of his lawyers that
he is protected by the law, and that,
lie says, is good enough for him. Be
cause Sheriff Sommcr, OF Essex Counw.
does not access the fees that the law al
lows is no reason why Sheriff Kaiser
should do the same. 1t costs more for
a Republican to be elected Sheriff Of
Hudson County than it does in Essex
County. There is no more reason why
Sheriff Kaiser should refuse to accept
fees that the law says he is entitled to
than that some Of the Faganites should
refuse to accept increased salaries.

to walk the plank at Monday nights
meeting of the Board of Health if there
had not been hitch over the appoint
ment of his successor. AS an evidence
of good faith and to show that there is
no more politics in the management OF
the City Hospital than there is in the
Police Department, Mayor Pagan was
willing to stand for the appointment OF
William Delaney, who is one of his ap-
pointees on the Health Board. Delaney
is Democrat. No one could find fault
with his appointment. He is familiar
with the duties, has executive ability
and there is no question Of his fitness
for the position.

He discovered that he couldn't do JUS

settled Delaney's chances. The new
warden must be Republican, or rather
Faganite, and he must be man who
will do as Connolly and the other pap
hunters say. They are looking up the
right kind of man, and if they find him
before next Monday night he will get the
job. The Commissioners will get their
orders and they will vote fer the man
