Asleep in Jesus vas the memorial
hymn of the convention, which was
sung by those present. Speaking eulo-
gistically of the late department treas
urer, Mary1L Hayes of Pine Meadow,
Past National President Harriet J.
Dodge of Hartford said in part:
Our late department treasurer, who
died at Pine Meadow on April IS, was
the daughter of William Riley and Al
mena lTroWbridge) Hayes. She WAS
born June II 1857, and for ten years
served as the henored treasurer of
this corps. Thirty nine years ago she
entered the employ of H. Chapin's
Sons, more recently the Chapin-
Stephens company in Pine Meadow.
Faithfulness, ability and integrity on
her part were reasons for gradual adj
vancement and for the past ten years
She has been in charge of the shipping
interests of the company. She was a
member of ST. Johns Episcopal church
nf Pine Meadow and for several years
was the efficient superintendent of the
Su:i.iay sc'l0o;. She was also an in
terested member OF the old Pine Mead
oW Library association and had been
one of the board of managers of the
New Hartford free public library, since
its organization four years ago.
In the Woman's Relief Corps Miss
Hayes mad been especially proni-
nent and was well known throughout
ter member of Edwin r. Lee w. r. c.
of New Hartford ard was one of its
past presidents. For the past eleven
years Miss Hayes had been depart
ment treasurer Connecticut w. r. c.,
position she filed with such credit
to herself and the order that for. year
after year she was reelected while
continued changes were made in other
positiens. Others had advanced her
candidacy for higher honors in this
order, but Miss Hayes steadily refused
to accept advancement and worked
for the candidate she considered the
better fitted to fulfill the duties. Miss
Hayes had repeatedly been sent as a
delegate to the w. r. G. national con-
vertions and at the time of her death
held high and honorary appointive
position under the national president.
In Connecticut and national W. r. c.
circles she was greatly beloved by all
WHO knew her, because of her cheer
full happy disposition, unselfshs-and
olovaible nature and tireless energy to
do for others
The memorial service closed with

STATE BOARD ENDS
SESSION WITHOUT
HEARING WILSON
Was Disregard of Time HonOred
Rule an Intentional Slight?
Ask Members.
special 10 The Newark star.l

l1tEN ION, Jan. To the
usual custom of the State Board OF
Agriculture, the annual meeting came
TO a close this afternoon without listen
ing to an address from the governor
of the State. After the meeting adj
journed several of the members claimed
that Governor Wilson had been slight,
ed and charged that politics was get
ting into the association.
To prove their assertion they pointed
to the election of State Senator Joseph
S. Frelinghuysen as president.
All :: Mistake, says Secretary.
When Franklin Dye, secretary Of the
board, had his attention called to the
matter, he claimed that there was no
politics in the matter at all. He said
it was all a mistake, and added the
committee was not aware that Gov
ernor Wilson was at the State House.
Mr.. Dye said he called upon Governor
Wilson Wednesday and yesterday, bat
the Governor could not make arrange
ments TO speak because of other press
ing matters he was called upon to at
tend to. The committee, he said, gave
the kmatter up, thinking it would be
useless to try further to have the Gov
ernor attend the meeting. 1t is we'll
known, however, that several members
were aware that the Governor was in
the State House all morning.
Complain OF hduIteration.
A resolution was passed calling the
Legislatures attention to the evils OF
adulteration of seeds and asked that
laws be enacted to stop adulteration OF
garden and farm seeds.
Another resolution called upon The
Legislature to make an appropriation
so hat New Jersey could have repre-
s%entauves at the American hand ano
irrigation exposition. to be held at Mad
ison Square Garden, New York, from
November 8 to II, 1911.
Expressing condemnation Of the at
tempt of the organized automobilist.
to secure the use of the improved roads
of the State by nonresident automo
bilists. the board, composed of repre-
sentative farmers from all sections o
, New Jersey, adopted strong resolutions
| opposing the proposed privilege to non
resident motorists, at the forenoon ses
sion.
persistent attempts have been made
and are being made" the resolutions
recite, TO change the automobile law
and to permit nonresident automo
bilists to use our improved roads with
out cost to them and without registra'
ton"
After condemning in strong terms
the threats of the motorists to oppos'
the members of the Legislature for re
election unless they vote for the recip
rocal auto legislation, the resolution
declare against the enactment of an.
law having for its object any add
tional concession to nonresident au
toists." The resolutions will be sen
to Governor Wilson and to the tw'
branches of the Legislature.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-The business
and financial world in general and life
insurance circles in particular were
slow in recovering today from the shock
caused by the sudden death last night
of Paul Morton, president of the Equi-
table Life Assurance Society, and secre-
tary of the navy in President Roose-
velt's cabinet. Mr.. Morton was stricken
at the Hotel Seymour, where, according
to his brother, Jay Morton, he had gone
to keep a business engagement with a
lawyer, and died of cerebral hemor-
rhage before his wife and his brother
could reach his side.
Mr.. Morton's family We're aware that
he was in a serious condition physi-
cally, and had prevailed upon him 10
take a vacation. He was to have sailed
for Europe on February 20.
Funeral services will be held tomor-
row afternoon from st. Thomas's Pro-
testant Episcopal Church. The burial
will be In Woodlawn Cemetery here.
Messages of coincidence poured in up
on the bereaved family today from mo-
table personages all over the country
whom the late railroad man m finar-
cier numbered among his extensive per
sonal acquaintance.
Mr.. Morton was stricken with
apoplexy late yesterday afternoon just
after he had gone to the Hotel Seymour
for the purpose. his friends said, OF
keeping an appointment with Paul l.
Herman, the lawyer. He died an houi
and a half later in an apartment just
vacated by Mr.. Herman earlier in the
day, and just a few minutes before his
wife n brother. Jay Morton, of Chi
cago, reached the house.
Coroner Feinberg. who is a ply
stefan, and Coroner's Physician O'Han-
lon, agreed after they had examined
Mr.. Morton's body. and had talked
with Joy Morton concerning his broth
er's condition, that death was caused
by apoplexy due to a rupture OF q
blood vessel in the brain, which re-
suited from arterio-sclerosis, from
which Mr.. Morton was found to be
suffering within the past month.

the anti-Martine petition. The report
circulated that the better class of Dem :
ocrats in this section are not signing
the petition is not only bringing forth
many denials. but more signers.
Statement IL Attacked.
A phase Of the situation which Madi-
son Democrats in genera are at
taeRing Is the statement that "our ex-
ecutiye committee voted unanimously
10 lend our support to James Fl. Mar
tine for United States Senator said
a signer of the petition.
Does 1t follow that we must indorse
the action of the Democratic execu-
tive committee asked ex- Councilman
Frank Waters, when hat body was
elected at a meeting at which fifty
people We're present, n that two OF
the instigators of the MARITIME resolu-
ton of that committee entertain hopes
for political plums through Martinez
influence? Our interests ought to regu-
late the action of that body, not the
reverse"
Another petition has been started
here against the election of James f
