the company.
He entered the service of the Penn

as a water-boy and advanced until he
was made foreman In 1874. In 1900,
he was acting supervisor of this d.

very few pension employees of the
railroad who has served over so years.

made the following statement In re-
gard to Mr.. McGrath's career: "Mr.
McGrath's service has not been sur
passed by any other pension employe.
He has served this railroad faithfully
and has done his work with one idea
in mind and that was to get the job
done. He never put the matter OF
wages before his work"
Greet Officials
collection of money made up by
the employees of this division totaling
over $500 was given to Mr.. McGrath
along with many presents for himself
and his wife. Benjamin McKeen, vice
president of the Pennsylvania system,
who happened in Richmond at the
time, attended the meeting with Mr..
Higginbottom, local superintendent.

greeted the officials of the road and
Mr.. McGrath.

Mr. McGrath was led to believe that
he was to go to a picture show Tues.

40 the freight house, where the sur
prise was given. He trembled with
surprise and could not find words to
express his gratitude.
After cigars and apples had been
passed around, final congratulations
and we'll wishes for his future were
extended to Mr.. McGrath.

TELLS development
OF ITALIAN ART

Italian art and it's development I'M
der the patronage of the de Medicis
and the effect of the de Medci's bril-
liant and amazing rule for three CEN
turtles "a family originally bankers,
from which sprang rulers of France
and Italy and popes to fill the highest
seat in the Catholic church, was told
in an interesting paper by Mrs. Char
les M. Woodman, which she read at
the meeting of the art department of
the Woman's club Tuesday afternoon
in the Public Art gallery. The signif
icance of their rule at that time, their
passion for Florence and their leader
ship of the culture of the age was EN-
phasiZed.
The illustrated lecture by Mrs. Mel
Vile f. Johnston included a study of
the works of Giotto and his followers
and those of MasSaccio. Illustrations
were shown of the way in which
Giotto, though conscious of the tradi-
tons of the time was able to think
outside of them, his gradual departure
from the use of symbolism and the
success he achieved in making the pic
ture tell its story. For 100 years after
his time artists tried to follow his
methods. He was, Mrs. Johnston
pointed out master of the psychic
story and his faces of Christ are con-
sidered by some to be the best of any.
Massaccio, a master of perspective,
did for the fourteenth century what
Giotto did for his time, the speaker
said. There are only few of his pic
lures but they show steps forward. At
the age of 20 he started for Rome and
was never heard of again, which ac-
counts for the small number of pic
lures he painted.
The next lecture on Italian art is to
be on Fra Angelica and Botticelli."
Changes have been made in the lee
ture subjects on account of the post
poned meeting some weeks ago.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The new
pope who will be elected in Rome this
week will be the 260th in the line
descending from Peter. Leo XIII con-
sidered that he was the 263rd pope,
but since his death five names have
been discarded from the list owing
to the doubt of their being authentic
The popes have sprung from all
walks in life. Sixtus V herded sheep
Leo X came from a family who were
maste of Florence, because of their
riches. Adrian VI was the son of a
ship carpenter, Paul V was noble,
Sixtus " was a waif, and Plus X was
a peasant. The reign of Piux TX was
the longest of any pope, and that of
Boniface VI was the shortest. The
former ruled for over 81 years and
the latter but 10 days.
Volumes have been written about
the personalities and eccentricities of
the popes Sixtus V was so aggressive
that he changed the face of Rome and
the world in five years. PiuX TX was
such a chronic speechmaker that he
delivered Ali addresses in a little more
than four yeaTs-an average of two a
week. Gregory XVI was hard-headed
and opposed the construction of rail-
ways because he believed that mechan-
ical industry would deprive many peo-
pie of their means of livelihood. Ma
cauley says that Leo X occupied him
self with canoes, jewels, antiques and
new sauces. Nicolas V was fond of
books and had a passion for building.
Leo XIII was cold, calculating and
scholarly, and accomplished much by
his masterful diplomacy. The private
character of some of the popes has
been assailed, particularly that of Alex
ander VI, who was in power when the
news of Columbus discovery of Amer
lea reached Rome.
There are so many churches in
Rome that to visit them at the rate of

HOT CONTESTS
IN 50. AMbOY
Mayor, Councilman at Large
and Two Councilmen Will
be Elected This Fall

SOUTH AMBOY, Oct. 9:-Things
In the political line are shaping
themselves for a vigorous campaign
in this city. The contests this year
will bring out n of the largest
, votes ever polled in the history of
Z South Amboy.
! The voters Will be called upon to
Z elect a mayor, a councilman-at-
large. and two councilmen. one in
the third and the other in the sec
ond ward. Hinged on the returns
of the November election are the
-fates of the oficeholders of the city
appointed under both parties. The
FERNS of office of the water COM
missioner and street commissioner
come to an end this year unless a
Democratic victory presents itself.
1t is for this reason that anxious
eyes watch developments as day by
day the climax gradually comes.
For the Office of councilman-at-
large Edwin L. Tice, Republican,
will battle with Richard U. Rue,
Democrat. South Amboy is known
as a Democratic stronghold but Re-
publicans are confident that they
can elect Tice.
In the second ward, where Demo-
cratic Councilman Lovely will OPP
pose Ferdinand Tedesco, Republic
can, the Democrats are worrying
little. This ward ordinarily carries
a Democrat candidate by a big ma
jority.
The fight with the real interest is
in the third ward, where John J..
Connors. Democrat, and Frank Ka-
bosky Republican, will have their
own little quarrel. Although this
ward for as far back as fourteen
years has been Democrat, still at
times the majority was dangerously
low. The fight in this ward is 60
ing to be a hot one, in fact the hot
test outside that of mayor.
In the fight for the office of chief
known at this time. ex-senator DAN
lei C. Chase and Michael J.. Stanton,
the former, although a Democrat, is
running on the independent citizens
ticket. having recently received the
endorsement of the Republican club.
which party has no candidate in the
field this year. The former is the
Democratic choice and who for four
teen consecutive years has beer a
Representative of the city in the
louncil.
This fight is going to test the city
OF South Amboy 10 its utmost, if the
foretelling of party men is to be con-
sidered at all. Every vote tabulated
at the election will be watched IN
cat-like manner, as the followers IF
both men await the action of the
voters of the city.
The Democrats have started the
ball rolling. when Francis P. Coan,
at a recent meeting of the Demo-
Gratis stated that the records of both
candidates will he discussed within
a short time.
Mass meetings by both parties are
being arranged for at this time.
