srrA HE mournful death of DIR. Leslie o. Ward yesterday IN d
London hotel, after a heroic struggle for lie rnat was
wa+ohed with the most sohcttous interest by many thou
sands of friends on both sides of the ocean, is sad news 10 the
MANY In this city and State who knew DIR. Ward and whose reel
ing for him one of afectionate friendship and esteem. Inere
is no man in New Jersey better liked personally and more respected
and admired than was DIR. Leslie D. Ward. His fine personal
qualities. his engaging manners and social graces made for him
strong friendships and forbade enmities. In character DIT. ward
was wonderfully welLbalanced. From boyhood he showed the
characteristics of a strong manhood. Perhaps the most striking
evidence a his enlistment for the Civil War when a pupil at
school. His assiduous application to the STUDY OF meolc"e' III
which profession he became an adept, was another proof or a suong
character. In the great work of building up the Prudential Dc.
Ward displayed the best of his powers, and to that ne gave a
service that was singular in It's devotedness. Always a lover OF
literature and art, DR.. Ward expended much OF his leisure and
largely of his wealth in these directions. A modest man, too,
was DIR. Leslie q. Ward, unspoiled by success in life and never for
getful of early friends. He was a model citizen, clean and whole
some in his daily life, patriotic and publio-spirted-a citizen whom
the city and State could not afford to lose.

THE COURT INTERPRETERS THE LAW.

IT UST1CE SWAYZE'S charge to the Hudson Grand Jury yes
III terday on the subject of prizefght moving pictures was ex-
ceedingIy well timed and was very much to the point. 1t
resolves a whole lot of official doubts in this State in respect to
the authority to deal with the subject 1t virtually establishes the
policy of municipalities toward moving picture shows. Justice
Swayze lays down the law in New Jersey as 1t relates to prize
fights and public exhibitions, and shows that city and county
officers have ample authority to stop exhibitions that are OF a
demoraEsing character or that may tend to disorder. "There can
be n o doubt about the law In New Jersey" says the justice. The
Legislature, he adds, has made prizefghting a crime and made
the presence of any person at a prizefght a misdemeanor. If the
pictures accurately reproduce the scenes of the przefght, "the
effect upon spectators must approximate the effect of the actual
fight" Such pictures, therefore, are Calculated to encourage prac-
tses denounced by the Qegislahve) act, and are a public nuisance"
Justice swayze refers to all prizefght moving pictures. All pre-
vious exhibitions Of the kind in this State, therefore, were indictable-
A deiverance SO authoritative settles the question of official au-
thority in cities of this State.

A NORTH JERSEY INLAND WATERWAY.

M S the first suggestion for an inland waterway between the
Shrewsbury river and Bayhead, on Barnegat bay, was
made In the editorial columns of the STAR, more than
passing interest is taken by the STAR in the principal object of
the meeting at Long Branch on Saturday of the New Jersey
Waterways League. The league was organized to procure this
waterway improvement, which, when made, will be an extension of
the inland waterway system from Cape May to Bayhead, now
under construction, making a continuous waterway from the new
harbor ataCape May to New York bay, its tributaries and ~neghbor-
ing waters. The stretch proposed for a waterway will prove the
most important link of the whole when in operation. 1t will give
access to New York and other markets for vast quantities of New
Jersey produce, fish, oysters and clans, as well as be used by
motorboats and small pleasure craft of all kinds. 1t will add mate
rally to the value of the seashore property. The STAR has
shown the feasibility and cheapness of the projected improvement,
and if the league is well organized and directed there is every
reason to believe it will be authorized before the South Jersey
waterway is finished.

Favors EARLY Closing.

Favors EARLY Closing.
To the Editor of the Evening Star.
A true and sure sign OF progress is
the attempt made by the Springfield
avenue merchants to close their stores
at a reasonable hour every evening and
Sunday. @ta
The population Up on the "'hill'' re-
quire that stores be open evenings, and
for a time on Sundays. but 9 o'clock
should be the limit during the week and
If they must open on Sunday. why not
set closing time for IL O'Clock noon?
At present a great many stores are
open all hours of the night and all day
Sunday; this Is not only unjust to the
employees Of these establishments, but
disagreeable to the proprietors, who
have practically 10 time to themselves.
The progressive storekeepers are de-
termined to educate the shoppers to re-
alize the importance of early closing
and 1 am certain that a little stick-to-
it-iveness will make the public and the
obstinate merchant fall in line with the
project, which will be of great benefit
to all those connected with the retail
trade.
As soon as the people find out that
the closing hours of all merchants are
strictly observed by them they will
make 1t their business to do their buy
ing before hat time. and 1t Is certain
that no business will be lost" In fact.

JUSTICE TO THE JEWISH PUPIL,

TT T is a simple matter of justice as well as public policy to
change the date for night school sessions from Friday to
Wednesday, and the School Board, having had it's attention
drawn to that fact in behalf of the Jewish pupils, will have the
change made in three schools in districts that have large Jewish
populations, and will doubtless afterward make the change gen.
eral The Hebrew Sabbath begins Friday night and to the ortho-
dox attendance at a secular school on that night Is a violation Of a
religious obligation. 1t is not generally known that in the Morton
Street School, the largest In Newark or In the State, 80 per cent.
of the pupils are Of the Jewish faith. In the Thirteenth Avenue
School the attendance Is 80 per cent. These schools are doing a
magnificent work in Americanizing the children Of the immigrant
and teaching them the principles of good citizenship. The estab-
lishment of an evening high school in the Morton Street School
house shows how well the School Board appreciates the great i'm
pcrtance of that school IN our public school system.

Opposes Fights and Fight Pictures.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Pictures or no pictures? That is the
question; who is right. Mayor Gaynor,
Mayor Haussling or Judge Swayze?
The laws of the land are indeed pecu-
liarly written when eminent jurists dis
agree as to their Interpretation. And
how strange 1t is that some of tho
mayors. police chiefs and judges have
just discovered that moving pictures of
prize-fights tend to the corruption of
| morals"
The whole thing Is a matter of indi-
vidual opinion; what official con-
siders a corrupt practise the other will
find no fault with. 1t all ought to be
easy to settle. Prize-fights are brutal
a relic of the past. Even though some
of us would like to see a prize-ight or
picture of one we, nevertheless. must
admit that there is nothing elevating
or educational In one. Stop all prize
fights mot boxing matches) and there
will be no pictures to wrangie over.
The Johnson-Jeffries fight ought by
this time to be forgotten. but the pic
ture discussion keeps the subject alive.
Let our officials do the legal thing; bar
the films or stop talking about them.
Talk is cheap, but in the present In
stance the best sort OF advertisement
for the picture makers. BOXING.

majority of the members of the Republican County Commit
tee credited to East Orange hold that Minard has not been strictly
representative either of the county, or East Orange, and in their
judgment he should not be renominated. Minard is serving his
first term, and by the unwritten party organization law is entitled
to a second term, granted there are no valid objections to his reelec.l

TO the Edltor OF INC HVanIHB bHf.
In a sketch Of DR.. Leslie d. Ward,
who died in London yesterday, printed
in a local paper, 1t was asserted that his
American ancestor was Josiah Ward,
the first man to row ashore from the
little ship that brought the first settlers
from Milford up the Passaic river.
DIR. Ward was In no way related to
Josiah Ward. for the latter left no adult
descendants. He married Elizabeth

the little ship. They had one child, a
