REFUSES TO GO

MAP OF SCENE OF CRIME

New Brunswick, July 20:-Archi-
bald Heron, the murderer of Rev.
S. B. d. Prickitt, is a forsaken man.
His wife has refused to come and see
him or to allow their son, an inn
this greatly to heart, and 1t worries
him more than the probable conse-
quence of his crime.
Mrs. Heron told Marshal Fouratt
that she didn't want to see her hus-
band.
IF Archie tells you to ask me to
come to see him, don't let we know
Of IT, she said to the marshal. He
has committed an awful crime, and
must bear the consequences alone"
Mrs. Heron and the boy are prac-
tically destitute. Much sympathy is
felt for them In Metuchen, and It is
likely that provision will be made
for them.
Mrs. Heron comes from good
family, the Stelles, of Stelton. "She
feels that the people of the town are
against her, but she is dead wrong, .
said Chief Marshal Fouratt yester-
day. we know that she is blame
less, and we deeply sympathize with
her and Will do our best to comfort
her"
Recorder Weber, of Metuchen,
says Mrs. Heron Is destitute and he
has heard many people express sor-
row. The recorder said that he is
sorry IS and $50 If necessary, and
he hopes other people will be sorry
in the same way.
County Surveyor Morgan F. Lar
son, of Perth Amboy, and an assist
ant, went to Metuohen and were
shown over the entire course of Her
ron's movements by Recorder Weber
and Chief Marshal Fouratt The
county surveyor made a map of the
scene of the murder, taking In points
as far down Main street as the house
of Mrs. Phoebe Martin, where Her
ron stopped on his way to Priokitt's S
house. This map will probably be
used by the prosecution at the trial
Reposing in the family plot in
Mount Holly cemetery, whittier 1t
was borne on the 8:23 train Satur-
day, lies the earthly remains of the
Rev. Samuel B. d. Prickitt, who was
so wantonly murdered in front Of his
home in Metuchen last Wednesday
afternoon by Archibald Heron.
The dead preacher was buried as
he would have wished, simply and
quietly. The immediate relatives
and close friends Of the family ac-
companied the body to the cemetery.
The pallbearers were: Jesse Perry.
F. ]. Van sicl1len, w. P. Compton, q.
w. Drake, Thorfin TAFT, e. G. Potter.
J. B. Herbert, of Herbert & Moke,
was In charge of the burial arrange
ments.
Profoundly impressive by their
very simplicity were the funeral SER
vices held Friday night at the home
of Charles A. Prickitt, the dead
mans eldest son. Looking straight
at every visitor as he entered the par
lor were the striking features of the
martyred president, William McKin-
ley, of whom an extremely large por-
trait hung from the wall over the
mantle. AT the Opposite END OF the
room rested the body of the late min
ister-editor, another victim of q
heartless assassin's hand.
During the services a letter of con-
dnlanea was read from Bishop Henry
spellmeyer, of the M. p. church of
Cincinnati.
Practically every one OF promi-
nence in Metuchen was present at
the services, as were many church
friends Of the deceased from points
far and near.

SCHOOL BOARD
OF g MEMBERS
is SUGGESTED
Question Of Having a Board e.
sCted al Large May Be Sub
lllltied to Voters.
WOULD PREVENT DEADLOCKs

There is considerable talk that at
the coming election the question of
having nine members elected at large
to the board of education may be
voted on. Alderman-at-Large Voor-
hees when seen by a NEWS report
er this morning in regard to the mat
ter said that he thought 1t would be
a benefit to the city and admitted
that there was a possibility of the
Board of Aldermen ordering the
question submitted to the voters.
Mr.. Voorhees, read the law on the
subject, and said that, by electing
the school board at large, it would
more than likely be composed of bet
ter men than some of those who
have held office in che past.
BY having the board composed of
nine members theer would not be
deadlocks, and in many other ways
the board would be an advantage over
one of six members. The state
school law provides that three OF the
members should be elected to serve
three years, three two years and three
one year, and of the question is put
to a vote and carried this fall, the
members in Office in the fall of next
year, the new one of nine members
would go into office on the first Of
January following.
Mr.. Voorhees, says that the Board
OF Education should be voted for at
special election, as, by naming the
commissioners at the general cleo
tion, there is bound to be more or
less politics concerned. He says that
II the board was chosen at a special
election 1t would be practically nom
partisan.

WITHDRAWAL

gpsolaI bv United Press we:

Special on United Press Wire:
London, July Dissatisfaction
with the management of the Olympic
games is not confined to the Ameri-
can athletes. The withdrawal of
several nations from the contest to-
day is threatened as a result of the
growing disgust of foreign teams at
the treatment received. The situa-
tion is the most critical ever faced
by the Olympics. Open charges are
heard that the British committee is
favoring their own athletes.
The French particularly are indig-
nant. They say that In the bicycle
events they were frequently fouled
by the English riders. No penalty
was inflicted although the committee
disqualified their winners In som e
events for alleged infractions of the
rules.
American Commissioner Sullivan
is unable to get a statement from
the committee as to the manner of
conducting the drawings except the
answer: Conducted in the usual
way This strikes the Americans as
being unusual.
The best men continue to be
drawn to enter against each other in
