HowARD P. FoRrHINGHAM.

Howard p. rockingham, a New
York stock5roker and summer resi-
dent of Deal, committed suicide in
New York last Saturday while delir-
ious. He jumped from the second
story window of his home, No. 90
West nth street. His widow is crit
ically i'll from the shock.
There was considerable secrecy re-
garding the brokers' death. Mr..
rockingham jumped from hiswindow
early on Saturday and died at mid
night. Those connected with his Of
fee did not know of his death until
Sunday morning.
The nurse told the coroner that
while she was preparing some medi-
cine in the bedroom about one O'Clock
Saturday morning, Mr.. Frothing-
ham jumped suddenly out of bed and
breaking away, opened the BEDROOM
window and dived head first TO the
pavement below.
Mr.. rockingham was 45 years old.
He was one of the best known call
money brokers in New York. His
commissions are said to have amount
ed to more than 100000 annually.
He is said to have lost heavily when
he was caught in the recent slump OF
the Great Northwestern and Pacific
stocks.
Mr.. rockingham was mayor of Ar
lington, N. j., for several years and
was president of the New Jersey Fish
and Game Commission, which posi-
ton is now held by Benjamin 2. Nor

Monmouth's School Moneys.

Monmouth county will receive
$341, 736.4S from the apportionment
of school money for this year. The
apportionment was made by the
state board of taxation. Ii includes
the money apportioned by the state
controller under last years Perkins
law, devoting to school purposes all
money received from the taxation of
mainstem railroad property in excess
of one-half of per cent.
The sum apportioned by the con-
troller is 1850, S67.35. The total
amount apportioned by the state
school board is $7.04S, 945.05. an in
crease of ITO per cent over last year.
This great increase is due to the new
law referred to and also to an increase
OF several million dollars in ratables
throughout the state. The result
will be that school facilities in the
rural districts of Monmouth county
will be largely increased and in cities.
including Asbury Park, the local tax
for state school purposes will be prac-
tically wiped out. All this presup-
poses that the Perkins law is upheld
by the court.

County IaII and New Warden.

A visit to the County Jail on Friday
was an interesting one. The writer
has seen and been through the old
County Jail that then was a wing of
the Court House with the iron barred
entrance about where the door of the
Freeholders room is now. He remem
bered when boy the prisoners COM
ing out to this iron barred door and
talking with those in the hall. In
those days woman prisoner was q
rarity and tte inmates very rarely
numbered over a dozen. The
sights at that tune to visitors. to the
jail were the iron bars that Jackson,
the bank robber sawed, through to
liberty, the dungeon and the place in
the jail yard enclosure where Woolley
and Donnellv were hung. Jackson
only cut through one bar of the win
dow and then squeezed himself
through the very small opening that
it would seem impossible for man to
crawl through. Now there are q
great many prisoners, both in the
female and male departments OF the
Jail which is now separate building
and the Warden has a separate build
ing as q dwelling in front of the Jail.
Since Jail Warden Edward CashiOn
has taken charge the me have
scrubbed the cells and corridor and
everything looks neat and clean. No
splitting on the floor is allowed and
each cell is kept tidy and in good
shape for Inspection. No calling to
passers-by is allowed aud no one is
allowed to climb in the windows. Mr..
Cashion has started a number of new
reforms in regard to the Jail and he
and his wife are well-lked by the
II -. l. Il
deal to do with the improved appear
ance of the interior. The inmates all
seem to cheerfully conform to the
new rules in regard to nea tness and
are making it easy for the new Jail
Warden.
