PEACE IN DEATH
FOLLOWS LIFE OF
MANY SORROWS
Matilda Marsh, Three of Whose
Sons Met Tragic Fates,
Passes Away.

After having lived through nearly a
century of continual sorrow and
tragedy. Mrs. Matilda r.. Marsh,
mourning the death last Thursday of
her oldest neighbor and friend, died
peacefully at the Continental Hotel.
She will be buried from 81 East Park
street, which was her home for ninety
wears
One of her sons was thrown from a
horse and killed. Another was drowned.
A third was terribly sealded and died
of his burns. A fourth had a leg cut
off by a big horse lawnmower.
Not only did her children meet tragic
deaths, but she was twice a widow.
Her third husband, DR.. Marsh, inc
Benjamin %Scudder, jr., of Brooklyn, her
son, are the only members of all her
family to survive her.
Yet in spite of the trouble that
seemed TO inexorably follow her, she
lived until the age Of 92 and died peace
fully In her bed yesterday from the
effects of old age. After she learned of
the death of Mrs. Mary Pierson, her
CID friend and ~neighbor, last Thursday,
she failed rapidly. Her cousin, Mrs.
r.. r. Lee, was with her at the time.
Her first husband was Benjamin
.Scudder. Upon his death she married
George Heaton and her third husband
was DIR. Marsh. She was formerly a
Miss Denman, of Newark.
Mrs. Marsh spent much of her time
travelling and she often went to Eu-
rope. The remainder of her time she
divided between her East Park street
home and the Continental Hotel. She
had an independent fortune.
Her death marks the passing away
of one of the oldest Newarkers.

MEN AND WOMEN
RESENT INSULT
BY GOV. WILSON
Democrats and Republicans Of
tended at Language Used
at Red Bank.
Especial to the Newark star,I

RED BANK, Oct. 30.-In political
circles throughout Monmouth county,
in both the Republican and Demo-
son is being severely criticised for an
insulting and offensive remark made in
one of his addresses during his speech
making tour. Although his remarks
were aimed at the Republicans the
Democrats feel, nevertheless, hat he
violated all laws of proprlety in re-
ferring to the Republicans as "bastards,
and not sons Of Lincoln
Press agents who travel with the
Governor did all in their power to keep
out of print this gem of wisdom but
were Unsuccessful in doing so because
those that heard the remark imne-
diately resented il and told their friends
of the exceedingly improper words OF
the Governor. Political leaders are
especially incensed at the Governor be-
cause of the fact that he made h re-
mark in the presence of women.
The Governors words, taken from a
stenographic report of his speech, are;
Don't let these men tR%epuplicans)
pirate to us about being the sons of
Lincoln; don't let them pirate to us
about the call of lineage unless they
are full OF and prepared TO act up to
the spirit of his example. But we know
that they are not, Therefore, we must
proclaim them bastards, and not sons
When the audience realized the full
Significance of the remark and took
into consideration the position of the
maj who uttered them the full import
of the balance of his speech was lost,
for his hearers were trying TO frame an
eAcus for the man who had resorted
to such language.
Immediately after the meeting 1t was
agreed among the press agents to
squash as far as possible that partieu-
lar portion of the Governors speech.
The tongues of the reputable persons
wi listened to the vituperaticn, how
ever, had no muzzle, and the words
were sent from mouth to mouth, ac-
~companied by condemnation The citi4
zens still are bordering over the Gov
ernor's very bad break" as it is
termed, and those who formerly were
staunch supporters and admirers of
Governor Wilson are today quiescent
when the question of his Superiority
OF intellect and Inmate g%entleness Of
character" Is brought up.

The Public Service railway officials
and city Trolley Inspector Joseph
Crawford are baffled over traffic on

AT times during the day several of

answer whether they favor sub

to establish municipal public utili-
ties; whether they believe in mu-
nfcipal ownership, management,
operation of public utilities,
whether they favor Tacoma man
ufacturers, contractors and me-

1t will be interesting for the peo-
Pile to watch now to see whether

Mayor Fawcett presided at his
last meeting of the city commits

AS NEW MAYOR OF CITY

Without any blare of trumpets
or brass band accompaniment, w.
w. Seymour at 3 o'clock this af-
fternoon quietly took the oath OF
office as provided by law, In the
city clerks office, and became
mayor of Tacoma. Mayor Faw-

and will devote himself to his
family In the future.
Mr.. Seymour becomes mayor
for three years, to fill out the un-
expired term of Mayor Fawcett,
who was elected for four years
and had he been allowed to re-
main until the middle of May
would have served but one year
of his term.
1t cost the city of Tacoma about
$4,000 to change mayors, taking
two elections to settle the ques-
ton. The mayor gets $4,000 a
year. 1t will be up to the incom-
ing, mayor to show he is worth
5000 more than the old mayor,
otherwise the city has lost money
by the swap.
