CHAPTER I.
IRIS A Grill"

Bank building, the gaunt young man
with the stern features and the kindly
gray eyes that always seemed a perpet-
ual rebuke to the face in which they
were set ruminated over the letter he
held in his hand. His back was to the
door-a half glass door which was also
the main and only entrance to the
room and which bore upon Its trans
lucent surface In ragged letters, worn
by the polishing the glass had under
gone, the words, Daniel voorhees,
Pike, Attorney at Law"
Pike himself had a queer twist of
feature, a sort Of whimsicality that
pervaded the very atmosphere about
him, and the smile with which he re
garded the letter he held had u world
Of "Reminiscences and sadness in II.
AS he gazed at 1t the letter seemed
to fade into p~othingness, and in its
place there rose the picture Of a day
years before, a day that caused the
dingy walls Of the Office to become
tendous and gauzy, and through the
gauze he seemed to see another Office
a ramshackle sort Of place, with a tin
sign showing through the window
which informed the passerby that real
estate was the commodity dispensed
within. To Pike the picture grew yet
more distinct, and In the broken bot
tom cane chair he saw the figure Of a
heavy faced man In his shirt sleeves
engaged in smoking q corncob pipe.
In another corner Of the room he
could see a red headed boy porting over
q pine table, laboriously copying In a
yound hand some title deeds. Then,
through the reaches Of the past, he
seemed to hear the heavy faced man
remove the pipe from his mouth and
heard him speak.
"Dan." he said, "it's a girlr'
And he heard the gasp the boy gave
forth us he turned about on his stool

and looked with startled eyes into the
kindly blue ones that giimmered into
his own
"A-girlls he seemed to hear the boy
xay. IA little girl, Mr., simpson,"
In his fancy he saw the big man
rod, saw him place the pipe back In
his teeth and extend his two palms
until they were a foot or so apart.
"a girl, DAN" he heard, ~'bouf %

out, An she's goin' to be q big re-
sponsIbility. my boy. Wen have to
sell a heap Of lots to lay what she's
goin' to cost. Dana whole heap OF
lots"
And gradually the picture seemed to
fade away, aud. like q dissolving view,
Its place was taken by another-the
picture OF a half timbered house that
stood back among some irees at the
corner Of Main and Center streets. IA

required promise and the awe wi.
which he heard that the newest atom
Of humanity to arrive was already
motherless, and then the picture faded
again. Then came a succession Of sim
liar views.
He saw the dingy real estate ONCE
grow into a respectable brick building,
and then into a handsome stone ediice,
and the heavy featured man turn
grayer and grayer and more somber
and more Woodworking, and he could
remember the day when the tiny Ethel
was brought to the office for the first
time and Of the manne In which she
began to grow up. He recalled the day
when she reached the mature age Of
twelve and OF how he had presented
to her a Bible for a gift and of the
manne In which he had blushed for
all his twenty-five years.
And then he recalled the day when
John Simpson had conHded to him
that the 'kids'' were to be given ad-
vantages and were to be sent abroad
to school, There came a blank after
that, but he recalled as II It had been
but yesterday the feeling with which
he had gone or into q corner and
wrestled with the grief that had beset
him. He could ven see the fiutterins
hand that waved to him from the car
window as the train took her and her
brother away.
Suddenly the door behind him opened
and shut quickly. and quick steps
caused him to drop his feet to the
floor. He turned and found a visitor
at his elbow.

Will Ask City Council the Rea.

An attack on the alleged neglected
condition of st 'eets IN general and
North Park street in particular, was
made at a meeting of the East Orange
Board of Trade last night. 1t was de-
clded to ask the City Council the rea-
son for the existing conditions and
whether or not 1t Is because of lack of
funds or inability to engage help.
1t was stated that East Orange has
been noted for It's good roads and that
unless immediate steps are taken the
long-standing reputation would likely
be lost.
Alleged dangerous conditions at the
North Harrison and Harrison street
and Main street crossings, where troll
ley cars block automobiles and other
vehicles was criticized, and 1t was
decided to ask the City Council to
place danger signs at each of these

Orange Health Inspector Makes
Startling Re-
port.

At a meeting of the Orange Board of
Health held last night Health In
spector McNut nade a report TO the
board in which he stated that 1nsani-
tary conditions prevail on a farm In
Irvington from which comes a con-
siderable portion of the milk supply OF
Orange. According to the inspector he
made q personal inspection of the
c~omplained-of farm, and he asked,that
due notice be served, that, unless n
ditions improve considerably the owner
be not allowed to sell milk.
Inspector McNut also stated that lie
found conditions at the Orange station
Of the Erie railroad in a most I'M
healthful state. Necessary accommo-
dations are aid to be lacking, and a
notice will be served on the superin-
tendent to spruce the place. up.
There has been a remarkable de-
crease in the number of reported suf-
ferers from contagious diseases, due
it is said, to the house-to-house In
spection made by the inspectors as a
result of which many needed improve
ments were ordered and made, but one
death from tuberculosis in the month
of September was reported.

ORANGE COUNCIL
ENDS FIGHT OVER
WIRING ON TREES
Gives Municipal Lighting Plant
Contractors Desired J,
Permission.

The street committee of the Orange
Common Council last night granted
permission to Storms & Co.. contractors
for the installation of the municipal
lighting plant, to place temporary guy
wires to trees providing that proper
tree moulding was used. The resotu-
ton to this effect, offered by Mr.. Birk-
holz, chairman Of the committee, was
passed without comment with but q
single dissenting vote, that Of Council
man Grtnsted.
Later in the evening Mr.. Gr1nsted,
while speaking for h Fifth Ward,
which he represents In the council, said
that he was appalled, that fourteen
members OF the council should vote
for the resolution before they knew
everything about 1t. "One wire on the
corne of Bradford street and Wash
ington street Is guyed to a small tree,
and l saw eight persons who were
compelled to stoop tc pass under 1t. I
tell you, you are more than likely to
have a number of suits on our hands
IL you give such permission to the con-
tractors. Mr.. Kelly, a member of the
firm, was called upon to explain and
he stated that the wire had been placed
there temporarily, and that 1t would be
removed this morning. Mr.. Kelly said
that SO much discussion and adverse
criticism were being made that he did
not believe the contractors would avail
themselves of the resolution. Mr..
Birkholz was irrttated at the opposition
TO the progress of the work. ut is not
fair to impugn the intelligence of the
council. The street committee thor
oughly investigated this matter. If
the council feels that the street COM
mittee Is not competent to pass upon
this question, why. we will bring 1t be-
for the council"
Councilman Fineran, another member
Of the street committee, then asked Mr..
Grinsted why he had not stated his OBJ
lection before the resolution was
passed. Mr.. Grinsted said thai he did
not wish to retard the work. 1T believe
in municipal ownership, but IL this
plant Is not installed rightly, 1t will be
a blow to municipal ownership, and if
1t is done rightly. 1t will be an asset"
A petition was received from several
well-known citizens in the city request
Ing that a sealer Of weights and meas
ures be appointed. The council made no
comment on the petition. It was signed
by Joseph D.. Holmes. Camillus G. Kid
der. isaac G. Ogden, C. H. Van Nos
trand and G. A. Kroeh.
A communication was received from
the East Orange City Council asking
that a committee be appointed to meet

r MAY HAVE
FORESTER FOR IT'S TREES
Shade Tree Commission Is Be-
hind Proposition.

A strong effort is being made by the
Kearny Shade Tree Commission to get
a forester to look after the towns
shade trees In a thorough and scien-
tifc manner. The members of the conf
mission are hoping to get a recent
graduate Of one of the noted schools
of forestry, who may be content with
a reasonable salary and may get de-
sired experience. After communicating
with Yale. Cornell, Pennsylvania State
University and Amherst the latter
place had practically agreed to supply
a man who will answer the require
ments of Kearny.
The only stumbling block is the lack
of an adequate appropriation. The COM
mission has asked the Town Council for
a special allowance of $4,000, which, IT Is
figured, will pay the salary of a forester
and a laborer. The Town Council has
had several conferences with h Shade
Tree Commission, but thus far has been
unable to accede to the commission's re-
quest. The budget has been made up
for this year, and the councilmen do not
deem the matter of such great import
ance as to make an extraordinary APP
preparation. The Shade Tree Commits
sion still has hopes that the financial
difficulty may be overcome.
Meanwhile, with a limited allowance,
1t is doing some good work. 1t has pre-
vailed upon the Public Service Corpora
ton to correct gas leaks that are said
to be running trees. and just now the
