Booth that His Rector Knew

he told one of the Edwin Booth that the great actors rector learned to know.
 It was while Booth was playing Shakespearian characters in the Win ter Garden in New York city in the early sixties-about 1863, l should say that he built cottage near the vil- lage of Greenwich, close to the mouth of the Mianus river, and there spent the summer months" said Mir. Tar rington. Not long after he had first occupied the cottage, he called upon me, saying that he was anxious to be- come member of my parish and that whenever he was at home he expected to attend church services.
 Are you a communicant?' I asked him.
 "'Yes,' was the reply. I was con- firmed years ago, and have never failed, if I were anywhere within con- venient reach of a church. to attend services and to communicate if were present at the time of the administer ing of the sacrament
 MT Booth attended services regu- larly." continued Mir. Warrington, "and frequently waited after the service un- til l had removed my vestments and then chatted with me, and I became deeply impressed by his deep religious sentiments. So, too, did many of the congregation, and nearly every Sun- day Mir Booth was invited to spend part of the day in the home of some of them. I noticed that he always ap- peared particularly delighted when he was to visit where there were children, and one day I made bold to speak to him about this
 An, MT Warrington he said, I am very fond of frolicking with chil- dren: l am especially fond of the Sunday afternoons I spend with the children here. l look forward to be- ing with them. each week day; my as sociation with them refreshes me am sure that it enables me to get clearer insight into the meanings that are in Shakespeare's characters
 "He paused moment, and then went on:
 Prayer. meditation, the beautiful ritual and music of our church, par ticipating in the sacrament-all this uplifts me. gives me deeper insight into the real meaning of religious life. And then if can only spend my Sun- day afternoons with the children, my cup of happiness is full. For I never pass an hour or two with these little ones without being more and more impressed with the profound and beautiful truths that are in the say ing of our Lord: Suffer little chil- dren to come unto me. for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven."'"

SCHOOL CHILDREN MOURN
DEATH OF MISS KITCHELL

In the death of Miss Agnes Kitchell,
the principal of the Webster Street An
mex to the Normal and Training School,
the school has lost a sympathetic and
most efficient colaborer. The calm Sc
renity of her beautiful character, her
loyalty to high ideals and her stead
fastness of purpose. made her moral
influence felt in every relationship and
endeared her to all her associates.
For more han twenty ear Miss
Kitchell has exercised a wide inf1u-
ence in the neighborhood of her school,
where she was in close touch with the
homes of the children, who by her
death have LOST a staunch friend. Miss
Kitchell was a member of the Princi-
pals Association, whose meetings she
regularly attended. She manifested a
strong interestin the larger questions
of education, as we'll as in the local
problems of her work, and was always
among the first to encourage every
thing in the line of progress.

CONTEMPORARIES
HEAR ADDRESS ON
CURRENT EVENTS
China, Japan and Turkey Treat
ed Of by Miss Janet
Richards.
~~
An
Wv

Members and friends of the Con-
temporary of Newark listened this
morning to the first of a series of talks
given by Miss Janet E.. Richards, OF
Washington, D. c., in Wallace Hail,
who spoke on Current Events" Miss
Richards discussed political questions
in Japan and China, and referred to
the recent reinforcement of Abdul
Hamid, the non-progressive ruler OF
Turkey.
Speaking of conditions in China, Miss
Richards commented upon the fact that
the throne of that nation will PROBABLY
accede to the demands of the nations
representatives for the early conVo-
cation of a parliament.
The program arranged by the late
empress dowager provided for the con-
stitution of a general representative
legislative body, to be known as the
Imperial Parliament. in 1915, at the END
of a nine-year period of preparation.
No sooner had this plan been made
known in a decree than a popular agi-
tation was begun to influence the
throne to advance the date when China
might have a truly representative gov
eminent.
Chinese Awakening.
Prince Yu Laing, a member of the
Grand Council. states that the entire
nation, from the highest TO the lowest,
is agreed upon the necessity of the
early establishment of a general parlia-
ment.
when we see a Chinese parliament
convene we shall truly feel" said Miss
Richards, that the world is in line
of progression; that the world dc
move.H
Nothing is so destructive to corrup-
ton" further declared Miss Richards,
'.as to throw doors and windows open
and let in the light of knowledge. This
applies to conditions as they exist in
the insane asylum in Essex county,
that you women are ~endeayoring to
remedy.
"The women of today are working
for a new brand of civic righteous
ness"

CARNIVAL SPIRIT
PREVAILED IN ALL
HALLOWEEN. FETE
Streets Thronged with Bands
of Joyous Youth in Masks
and Costumes.

The set observance of Halloween in
the form Of a street carnival was
abandoned in Newark several years
ago, but the thousands that swarmed
the city streets last night, finding fun
in their own more or less lawless way,
proved no regular celebration is needed
to give the spooks and gnomes assigned
to Newark for this holiday the biggest
kind of a reception. From dusk until
past midnight the streets swarmed
with children young children and
grown-up children-and woe betide
him who entered not into the spirit of
the night.
Many gathered at the Four Corners,
drawn by the rumor that there was to
be a parade And there was. 1t was a
purely %impromptu affair, but highly en-

to get within range. The police were
lenient. but there was little disorder,
all hands smiling at times when they
felt more like cutting their tormenters
1t was generally agreed that the hol-
dav is becoming more and more popu-
lar ever year ,hereabout.
1t was one glorious night for the fun
makers. and they availed themselves of
it TO their hearts content.

IRREGULARITIES IN

NOW TOTAL $4,000
Millburn Collector Reports Other
Cases in Which Predecessor
Had Probably Been Negligent.

A discrepancy of about s11 900 in the
accounts of former Tax Collector
George A. Clark, of Millburn, has been
disclosed, according to a report sub
mitted to the Millburn Township Com
mittee last night by the present tax
collector, John Van Fleet. 1t is not the
belief of the officials of the township.
however, that this money has been mis-
appropriated. but it is thought that the
irregularity has been caused by clerical
errors or poor methods of bookkeeping.
MIR. Van Fleet in his report last night
said that he has received another re-
ceipted tax bill showing hat taxes on
certain property in Millburn have been
paid to Mr.. Clark. while the books of
Mr.. Van Fleet show that these taxes
are still unpaid.
Mr.. Van Fleet also declared hat since
he assumed office last January he has
been requested to release pieces of
property on which the same conditions
prevailed. That is, hat the owners
of the latter produce receipts of the
payment of obligations to the former
collector, which ~liquidations are credit
ed in the accounts of Mr.. Clark. The
total of these cases, it vas said, is
81, 900.
Former Collector Clark left Office last
January and is now living in Morris
town.
At the request of the collector John
J.. McChesney was. appointed collector
of back taxes on personal property.

sidewalks in Myrtle emu Pine and
