forth in one of Newark's populous
suburbs, relates an amusing story OF
experiences with fellow fire CHIEF,
who is now an aepirant for, the NOM
nation for member of Assembly
while the New Jersey fire lords were
en- route Milwaukee to attend the
annual convention of the Interna-
ton Association of Fire Chiefs being
held in that city.
The fellow fire chief" had not been
long in harness, but was more ioqua-
cious than the oldest Of the many
veteran chiefs on the train and kept
all hands awake listening to his tales
of fire-fighting. There had been one
small blaze in his community during
the year and woman and small
boy had -subdued the CONGREGATION
before the arrival of the department.
He had made 1t known that his
heart was set on seeing the Rocky
Mountains and was under the inn
preston that the trip to Milwaukee,
would afford him an opportunity TO
crafty his fond desire.
: Would the comrades" be good
enough to arouse him from his slum-
bers If he happened to be in the land
of nod when the train arrived near
the Rocky Mountains?
Would they? Indeed they would!
They Neull watch over him a. a

Joined Department in "caII"
Days-Had Been III Seven
Months.

William II. Page, retired fireman,
died at his home, 165 Summer ave-
nue., today after a seven months ILL
ness. Mr., Page was one Of the best
known local firemen and was one of
the organizers of the Firemen's Mu-
tnal Benevolent Association.
The deceased is survived by five
daughters. Mrs. Horatio Forbes, Mrs.
William H. DeMott. Mrs. George
Lee, Mrs. Ferdinand Springfield and
Miss Gertrude e. Page.
Mr.. Page was born in Camden, No

at an early age and remained here

was attached to the latter company.
Page was, beyond question. one OF
the most original characters ever
known in the Newark fire department
He was free-and- easy, devil-may-
care sort of fellow, a daring fireman
as he had been brave soldier, brave
to the point of recklessness. II he
made up his mind to talk he would
have his say and nothing could STOP
him. And as a talker, he was excep-
tionally clever and eloquent. He
could be witty, sarcastic, humorous or
severe
Page was chairman of the commit
tee having in charge the firemen's
memorial services at Keeney's Thea
tire last winter, and was, in fact, the
Inauguration of the memorial services
idea.

ment will take place in Paramount
Cemetery. The pail bearers will be
chosen from his friends in the depart
ment. Rev. j. Clayton Howard, one

Never was there more penitent

over their own neglect, and pleaded to
