Judge E w. Gibson of Brattle-
boro is treating in a very dignifed
manner his possible candidacy for the
ieutenant-goyernorship of the state.
He is making no scramble for the Of
fee, and is not flooding the post-ofilce
with letters to friends appealing for
help and sympathy. II nominated at
the convention, he would not decline
the honor. and If the delegates
should see fit to nominate one of the
other candidates, he would have no
kick coming. BY taking this position
in the matter he is winning many
frlends--Londonderry Sitter.
With Windsor county presenting
two candidates and apparently even
ly divided it is hardly probable that
the lieutenantgovernorship will 90 to
either of them thus making 1t most
likely that the nomination will go
somewhere else. Caledonia county
presents fairly strong candidate in
the person Of L. p. Slack. but he is
not much known outside his own sec
ton and was scarcely heard of in the
south part of the state until suggested
as a candidate for lieutenant-goyer
nor. Mr. Gibson is much better
known, especially from his advocacy
Of a primary election law, and then
too, Windham county often has a way

STATE TOPICS
OF BUILDERS
Trade Schools Discussed at
Quarterly Session at
Montclair Yesterday.
DELEGATION FROM HERE

Trade schools, the employers liza
bility bill and operations of specula-
tive builders in North Jersey were
the main topics outside of regular
business that we're taken up at a
quarterly meeting of the Master
Builders Association Of New Jersey
in Metropolitan hall, Montclair, yes
terday. The trade school subject re-
ceived most attention, for 1t is one
that boss builders throughout this
as well as other states, are taking
up In earnest. They are urged and
powerful sefforts are under way to
cause their establishment through
out New Jersey. 1t is conceded that
better mechanics can be made If the
trades are taught the boy than If he
is allowed to grow up and then
waste years in apprenticeship.
Carl C. Christensen reported con-
ditions in about this city. Reports
were received from all other conn
ties in the state ana they all tended
to show that New Jersey rests in a
very peaceable state at the present
time so far as labor matters are ON
eerned. Accompanying Mr.. Chris
Jensen from this city was Emil Koy-
en-.
1t Is probable that the next quar-
terly session of the state organiza-
ton will be held in Paterson. That
is scheduled to be an important
meeting.

FUNERAL Of SUICIDE
HELD THIS AFTERNOON

-
The funeral of Henry Leu, ST., who
died at his home in Maurer Tuesday af-
~terneon, was held froIa his late resi-
aence this afternoon at 2 o 'cloek. Rev.
R. w. Mark. OF the Woodbridge Presby-a
terrain church effieiated, and interment
followed in the Woodbridge Presbyter-
ian cemetery.
1t has developed that Leu, who was
an invalid, adopted suicidal means to
hasten his death, He was found sus-
pended from a door jam with a rope
around his neck, by his son, Henry Len,
Jr., but when cut down, it was too late
to save his life.
Leu was a foreman at Henry Maurer
& Sons brick factory. For several
years past, he has suffered from acute
rheumatism, later with an affliction of
the eyes. Recently he was confined to
a New York hospital with an optic all
ment, and ON his return to Maurer, suf-
fered even more.
Last Tuesday, a physician was sum
moned. The doctor later ~telephoned
that his automobile had broken down
and he wenld be unable to reach there
until later.
The suffering mar became delirious
and shortly before four O'Clock that
afternoon, his son entered the room and
found the aged man hanging from the
doorway. He died a few minutes after
his release. Coroner Ferd Garretson
viewed the body.

INTERESTING SESSION .
of HISTORICAL S0G'Y.

More han 100 members of the
New Jersey Historical Society as
sembled at the rooms in West Park
street at noon Wednesday for the
sixty-ffth annual meeting. In the
absence of President Jonathan W.
Roberts, who has long been i'll,
George R. Howe, of East Orange,
first svice-president, called the SEES
sion to order. Bishop Edwin s.
Lines, of the Newark Episcopal do
cese, delivered the invocation.
Following the report of the trus-
tees. read by Rev. Joseph F, Folsom,
recording secretary, Mr.. Howe de-
livered an address in which he re-
called the various gifts to the socie-
ty during the last twelve months,
and paid a tribute to the woman's
branch of the society
Among the gifts to which Mr..
Howe referred was a portrait of the
late Miss M. Antoinette Quinby,
painted by F. H. c. Ungar, and pre-
scented to the woman's branch at its
annual meeting last spring by Mrs.
Fl. MacKie. A bequest of $4,000 by
Miss Quinby vas mentioned by the
acting president as an evidence OF
her devotion to the society.

BILL AT PROGTOR's
To CLOSE THE WEEK

The bill at Proctor's theatre for
the last three days of the week con
trasts poorly with the program of
the three previous days. There is
scarcely an act on the bill worthy of
praise lest 1t be the Halloween Fan
tssy, enacted by w. L. Romano and
Florence NJ. Smith.
Probably an incentive to the crit
ism of the audience was the substi-
tuition OF another piano player plan
list, apparently unfamiliar with the
atrical playing. at yesterdays per-
formanoe. Lew Bloom, the Tramp
Comedian" was unable to sing sew
eraa songs regularly included in his
act, and openly remarked about 1t
from the stage.
The Halloween Fantasy is a clev-
er little skft, wherein a girls dream
opens an I'M for courtship from
no less a parsonage than a town
pump. The pump comes to life, but
at the hour of twelve. again resumes
it's normal shape. Miss Smith has
| quite q soprano voice.
La Maja, a Spanish dancer, did
Rot-seem to take well with the audi
enee last night. Lew Bloom, the
tramp comedian. sprang a few new
Jokes, also a number of old ones;
several were no jokes at all. Ward
and the Regina sisters appeared in
songs ana dances. They have .
| clever act.
