DIES, AGED "a YEARS

Christopher c.. Gillen, h was a
searcher in the office of the city comp
troller for almost thirty-four years,
died last night at his home in Nutley,
after suffering for a long time with
rheumatism n heart trouble. During
the past two months he worked only a

came He is survived by his wife and
one son, Howard Gillen, a young man.
Mr.. Gillen was born in Newark sixty
four years ago. When the Civil War

At the time of General Lees invasion

Volunteers.
In 1872 he was appointed a clerk in
the office of the receiver of taxes, and

That Governor Fort was actuated by

TRADING STAMP
COMPANY DOING
LOSING BUSINESS

Application was made today in
Chancery Court, Trenton, for the APP
pointment of a receiver for the Red
Star Trading tSamp Company, which
has places in several parts of this State
besides this city.
The application was made in behalf
of Theodore Geddes, Munn's Livery
Company and the Home Coupon Ex-
change, of this city. The liabilities~of
the company are said to be only IS, 900,
while the assets are expected to total
SIS, 600 or $20,0 00.
The application for a receiver has
been made on the recommendation of
Frederick Scheuer, who recently took
charge of the business.
MI. Scheuer after a short investiga-
ton saw that the company would prob
ably continue on a downward path and
that there was little hope for it. He
therefore agreed with the three apply
ing creditors, who do not expect to lose
any money after the affairs of the COM
pany nave been liquidated.
The Red Star Trading Stamp Com
pany was organized in 1903 with Ed
yard Blau, president, and Leopold Jay,
treasurer. At one time the company
had been fifty and six places through
out the State. At the present time
there are stores in Atlantic City, New
Lordoh, Orange, Bloomsberg and Plain
field.

BayOnne Must Hold
Voting Machine Election.

The suit of H. H. Mara, of Bay
onne, to compel the local authorities of
that city to call an election to submit
to the people the question of the reten-
ton of the voting machines was de-
cided by the Supreme Court in favor of
Mara and directs that a mandamus
should issue forthwith compelling the
authorities to submit the question to
the people in accordance with the act
of last winter.
The city authorities claimed the law
was unconstitutional because it was
special legislation. The court holds the
act is constitutional, and says when
the required number of persons call for
a special election to decide upon the
retention or rejection of voting ma
chimes, the authorities must call the
election.

opposed to the match from the first.
The age of Mr.. Wilks was given as
the reason for the old woman's opposi-
ton. Although the bridegroom Is IS
years old, and ii is understood that
Mrs. Green preferred a younger mar
for her daughter, the worlds richest
woman finally consented. 1t is said,
though, that IL even though Mrs. Green
finally gave her permission, she Is not
entirely sure that her capitulation was
wise.
Mrs. Green gave her final consent to
the marriage Sunday, it is said, and
she spared no money in getting her
daughters trousseau together. A New
York dressmaking establishment had
its entire force working all day Sunday
and Sunday night in order to have the
gowns ready for the wedding. The
bride will start on her honeymoon with
more dresses than her rich mother
ever had in her life.
Mrs. Green's s~olIcitude.
Mrs. Green. noted for her frankness,
has not hesitated to tell Mr.. Wilks
himself her reasons for her h~esitancy.
In a h-eart-to-heart talk Mrs. Green
had several days ago with her daugh-
ter's sutton the old lady wound up
somewhat snappishly by saying:
"Mr. Wilks, I think you're a pretty
nice man, and I've no doubt you'll treat
Sylvia decently. But, Mr.. Wilks, you're
So years old and you've got the govt.
And, Mr.. Wilks, I want to know where
my moneys going to when 1 am gone.
There'l be $4,000 a day income for
Sylvia after I'm dead, and who's going
to look after 1t?
you'll excuse me if 1 talk plainly
to you. =
IAN heir would hold this great for
tune intact in the direct line of descent
and the bulk OF 1t would not be dis
persed. This, I believe, concerns my
daughters happiness alone"
MI. Wilks smilingly took Mrs. Green's
solicitude In good part. His physician
has not regarded his affection of govt
as at all of a serious nature: and. in
deed, interested more particularly in his
patients affair of the heart, he tool
the trouble to call on Mrs. Green and
in-law was not ailing, but in good
health.
The Honeymoon.
When Hetty Green dies Sylvia will
have, as her mother suggested, an in
come of approximately $4,000 a day.
Largely in view of this, Mrs. Green
always has wanted her daughter to
marry. To be a grandmother is said to
be one of her chief ambitions. AS there
is little chance of her son marrying. at
least during her lifetime, practically all
her hopes In this direction have been
centred OF Sylvia.
