MISTAKES ROACH
POISON FOR SALTS
AND DIES IN AGONY

Having eaten roach poison which he
had mistaken for salts, as the boxes
containing the powders were identical,
Adolph Killers, so years old, died in
agony today at his home, 70 Lang
street. County Physician William Fl.
Mckenzie, who viewed the body, will
probably perform an autopsy.
About 10 o'clock last night, accord
ing to the mans widow, Killers went
to a cupboard with the intention Of
taking the medicine. II was the habit
Of the family to keep a supply of salts
In a cocoa tin. Last week a neighbor
bought some roach powder and gave
a quantity of it to Mrs. Killers, who
put 1t in a box just like the one on
tanning the salts. This box happened
to be the one that came to hand first
as Killers rumnaged through the cup
board in search of medicine. He swal-
lowed a liberal dose Of the poison.
About midnight Killers began to feel
the effects of the poison and early to-
day when a physician was summoned
the patient Was near death n Moth
ing could be done to save him.
Killers had been a resident of New
ark many years. He was In the en-
ploy of Lyons Brewery. Besides the
widow. five grown children survive.

plant and also to pay the salaries OF
the current week
Miss Gerlach stated to an Evening
STAR reporter that Mr.. Wolf had
treated all the girls fairly and that
none Of the employees had cause to
complain. The young women said that
their expenses to New York were paid
by the company.
Some of the young women We're in
mourning for relatives who persisted in
the fire. The meeting gave the girls
an opportunity OF seeing one another
for the first time since the holocaust.
The meeting between some was very
sad, while others rejoieed at their
escape.

Carmody said that she had often
spoken to the girls about what would
happen in the building in case Of fire.
She knew that there would be a ter
rible loss of life, owing to the absence
of fre-escapes.

the other young women gave their
hearty approval. They all affirmed
that in the future the factories in

lowed me, and when Miss Haag told
her that she was going upstairs we
begged her to come down. but she re-
fused to do SO. She insisted upon going
INTO the factory, saying that her help
was needed there"
All the young women praised the
work of the STAR in aiding the suf-
ferers.

His friend went to Trenton and de-
iivered the message to the governor.
The following morning the appoint
ment was made.
In his friendships he was much more
intensely partisan than he was in his
politics. In fact, where friendship WNs
concerned politics a no consideI-
ton with him. A marked Illustration
of this fact was. his close and lasting
friendship for the late Judge George IL
Grey, of Newark. 1t began soon after
their acquaintance and was never
broken, and IL was often a matter Of
remark in the corridors of the State
House at Trenton that these two
friends were inseparable.
Many other incidents going to show
the manner of man Judge Dill was

sufficient testimonial to his merits as
a man and his ability as a jurist.
The Rev. Father John p. Callashan,
rector of the Church of Our Lady Help

been one of Judge Dills intimate
friends, was asked today by the Eve

death Of the jurist. lie said: 81 was
much grieved when I learned of the

death of fudge Dill was reported to me
by his faithful butler. The public at
large is not aware of the very close re-
lations between Judge Dill and my
self. In his death the Catholics of East
Orange have lost a faithful and a
benevolent friend and myself a good
adviser. I regret very much that his
last illness was of the character which
precluded my visiting him, for, at his
request, often repeated. l had promised

Fear grows again today that the
High street disaster is to claim its
twenty-ffth victim after all. Word
came from st. Michael's Hospital that
Anna Dodge. the girl who has lain
there desperately injured since Satur-
day, has suddenly become worse, just
az the physicians we're hoping she was
out Of danger. Yesterday It had been
said hat the pneumonia which threat
ened her had been checked, but 1t is
said to have made its appearance
again today, and the girl is so low that
her relatives have been summoned to
the hospital.
Lena Koenig, the other most serious
ly injured of the victims, is improv-
ing at the City Hospital, and, 1t is
hoped, will be out Of danger tonlor-
row. Her mother has not left the cot
ride except for an hours sleep once
a day since Lena was taken to the
hospital.

cancy caused by the resignation /,
Judge Peter Van Voorhees,.

Judge Peter a voorhees,.
A mere biographical sketch fails ut
terly to give more than a glimpse of a
man whose personal characteristics and
attributes were such as to mark him
as a ma apart from most successful
public men.
He was not one who was given to
talking much OF himself. but to an
interested friend he once related Incl
dents from the time that he was what
he called a school teacher until he
reached the Errors and Appeals/Court
bench of his adopted State, which
showed that his march upward in lie
had not been an easy pathway. He
had al ambition to be a judge of the
highest court in the State, and for a
time seemed to be content to remain
there. But so full of activity and in
dustry was his mental makeup that
after a few years on the bench he
eagerly yearned to return to his natural
bent, which was the practise of the
profession of the law, in which he was
regarded as one of the ablest, not only
because of his extensive and correct
knowledge of corporation law, but be-
cause of his learning in every branch
of it.
Apart from his profession, James B.
Dill was a manly man and a generous
one. The instincts of friendship were
the outcome of his birth, and he so
wisely developed them that he never
made a friend to lose one" Domestic
life for him had an enduring charm,
IN few men have SO constantly held
the love and esteem of a family that
was as devoted as himself; not, per-
haps. because he made them SO, but
for the a that each member of it
was a solicitous part of the other.
Mr.. Dill was a man of keen percep-
ticns and quick decisions-remarkably
so-and he seldom missed the mark in
either. An incident in point occurred
when his appointment to the bench
was pending. The matter had been de-
layed from week to week for one al
legged reason and another. At last the
position became irksome. One day when
a friend OF Mr.. Dill was calling orS him
the appointment was under discussion.
Rising from his chair suddenly, Mr..
Dill, who was as quick-spoken as no
MAS alert In his mental equipment.

A REMARKABLE RECORD.


We have been searching the pages
of ancient and modern history for
some mention of the work OF an as
SCISSOR or board Of equalization, which
met with universal approval.
We failed to find single instance
Of this kind till we came to the board
Of equalization OF Chickasha township,
which has just completed its work.
We confess that we were consider
ably shocked when a committee OF
merchants, appointed by the local Re
tailers association, after making a
careful investigation Of the assess
ments, announced that they had no
fault to find and even went SO far as
To express strong commendation for
the board.
It must be conceded that this situa
tion is unique. Mayor Edwards, City
Clerk Dews and Assessor Robinson,
who compose the board Of equaIiza
tion, have broken the record and they
will have the distinction Of having
their names handed down to posterity
as board OF assessors against who
no kick was registered.
