Gold Chalice Is Presented
to Dean McNulty in Honor
of Fiftieth Anniversary

PATERSON. Oct PA tribute of
love and esteem, in the form of a
solid gold chalice, was presented to
Very Rev. Dean William McNulty at
a banquet in the priests honor. here,
last night. The chalice was the gift
of the st. Johns Sunday School AS
ISOLATION, composed of young men
belonging to the parish. 1t was given
to mark the fiftieth anniversary of
Dean McNulty's rectorship. Every
member of the society who found it
possible to attend was on hand, and
when the venerable priest arrived at
Entire Nous Lyceum he received an
ovation from the more than 300 men
who were waiting to do him honor.
Fifty years ago yesterday Dean
McNulty arrived in Paterson and
offered his first mass as rector of st.
Johns Church. His altar boy at that
event half a century ago was Robert
e. Burke. one of the many Paterson
boys who since have entered the
priesthood. Father Burke is now To-
Gated at Englewood. Another of the
altar boys who were the first to serve
Dean MeNulty in this city is now
MonsignCr Sheppard, of Jersey City.
The late Rev. DIR. NJ. A. McAIanus, Of
Newark, also was one of Dean Nc
Nnltv's first altar boys.
Speakers at, last nights recep-
ton to Dean McNulty included
Judge Joseph W. Congdon, of the
Court of Errors and Appeals; Samuel
G.. McKiernan, one of the pioneers
of St Johns parish: William B.
Gourley, Rev. Thomas T. O'Donnell,
John NJ Nolan and James j. Culling-
ton
Dean McNulty, after the chalice
presentation, said the priests who
assisted him in Paterson should not
be forgotten. He thanked God that
he had been able to work. SO long and
he knew that all present thanked
God, because after all it depends
upon His blessing; for in vain does
the man work unless he is blessed by
God.
Remember me in your prayers.
| can do nothing and you can do
nothing without Gods help, and 1
ask you not to forget me in your
prayers" he said in conclusion.

STOKES TALKS ON
WATER SUPPLY
Republican Candidate Goes Into
Paterson With Plan for
State Control.

PATERSON, Oct 24.-The potable
water supply of the State was dis
cussed by former Governor Stokes in
his speech here last night before a
large throng. He said that to con-
serve the potable water supply was
what he called progressive legisla-
ton, because of its benefits to the
poor family.
II called attention in my messages
as governor to the importance of a
proper potable water supply under
the control of the State,' said the
candidate. "If at that time the rapid
growth of our population demanded
attention in this connection, still
more does it do so today, since the
installation of the tubes between New
York and northern New Jersey. I
established a Potable Water Supply
Commission with power of control
over the potable waters. These were
acts authorizing the State to pur-
chase our fresh water lakes and to
establish forestry reserves with a
view to protecting the woodlands
around springs and sources of our
water supplies. This was all a part
of a well-developed proposition for
the State control of our potable
water.
THAT is a proposition that affects
the material needs and comforts of
the people. 1t goes into the home life,
and it means cleanliness and health.
1t is absolutely Indispensable. This
is what / call progressive legislation
and 1t is far more progressive in it's
benefits to the poor family or to the
sick child or mother, than an aca-
demic discussion of the initiative.
God made us dependent upon the
rivers and streams, and there are but
few of the great municipalities where
the question of pure and wholesome
water for family uses is not great
problem"

DIRECTOR EVANS
ANSWERS SEYMOUR
Freebooter Head Declares In
competency Not Trouble in
Overlook Engine-room.

Walter A. Evans, director OF the
Board of Freeholders, today denied
the charge of David G. Seymour,
contracting engineer, that incompe-
tency was the cause Of the trouble
experienced at the overlook Asylum
for the Insane with the boilers. It
was Mr. Seymour who installed the
boilers.
The letter of Mr. Evans, which was
in reply to one written by Mr.. Sey-
mour is as follows:
Your letter of .the 20th inst. duly
received
I'm reply I beg to inform you that
neither the Board of Freeholders nor
the building committee thereof has
taken any action whatever with re-
spect to the removal of any Of the
boilers at Overlook. Messrs Run
yon & Carey. engineers employed by
the county, have recommended that
when any of the boilers in question
show signs of deterioration they be
replaced one at a time by a different
type, which they claim will give bet
ter service than the present boilers
nave given.
Until the engineers have made a
thorough investigation and report,
no action will be taken by the board
and before any such action is taken.
YOU and any others who wish to be
heard will be given ample opportuni-
! ty to express your views before the
committee.
For your information I will say
that the question of these boilers
came up in connection with the eff
forts of the Board of Freeholders to
require that the coal supplied I'M
der the competitive bidding system
should be up to the specifications in
every respect.
Your statement as to the condi-
ton of the boiler room has been in
vestigated, and I beg to say that the
statements made by you in connec-
ton Herewith are not borne out by
the facts. On the contrary the plant
at Overlook is being run in a COM
petent. careful and thoroughly eff
Gent manner.
"As YOU state that you consider
YOUR letter public document. 1 shall
make this letter public also"

BY Howard Valentine.


Seldom If ever before has such a
wholesale upsetting of favorites been
seen at a big athletic meet as took
place at the National A. AL. cham
p%ionships in Chicago last week. In
nearly every event a ~topnotcher went
down to defeat, and in this respect the
east-New York especially--suffered
particularly.
The Irish-American A. c.. of New
York had notices. than half a dozen oil

young blood.
Matt McGrath lost his sixteen pound
hammer title to young Paddy Ryan,
while Pa Mcdonald, the Olympic shot
put champion, had his colors lowered
by Larry Whitney Of Dartmouth col
lege, who weighs but a little more than
half what Big Pat does.
Platt Adams was another Olympian
to feel the sting of defeat. The NY.
A. c.. champion, who has been Justly
called the greatest all around Jumper
in the world, was trimmed by Styles,
a Chicago s~choolboy.
John Nicholson of the University OF
Missouri, despite his defeat at the
Olympic games, has been regarded by
some experts as the leading exponent
of the high hurdlinp art, but like many
another champion Nicholson "got his
at Chicago, and Fred Kelly, the boy
from southern California, was the
athlete who sent the lanky Missouri
an down to defeat. Kelly had barely
conquered the great Nicholson when
he 90 got a beating. In the low hurd-

One of the most surprising form re-

of Mel Sheppard in the half-mile race.
Peerless Mel was led home by Homer
Baker, a Brooklyn youth who started
his career as a high jumper but is now
one. of the greatest half milers in
America. Sheppard has started in the
national half mile championship seven
times, taking five firsts,> a second, and
a third-altogether a most remarkable
record. Peerless Mel is just shaking
off the effects of a train wreck he was
in last fall and he will probably "come
back before the year is out.
