George Fox and Thomas Loe the great Quakers
of the period who induced him to Join that
body. The college authorities fined him for nom
conformity but as he adhered to his faith he
was expelled from the college.
PENIS father was furious with him at first but
finally relented and sent him to France where he
was presented to Louis XIV and became great
favorlte at the court Then followed a brief
career as law student and member OF the
star OF his father, the admiral
In 1868 he returned to Navy Gardens and
dropped the sword for the pen, writing num-

Tower of London In 1876 William Penn was
one of the early settlers In West New Jersey

Penn, not only for services rendered, but for
10000 pounds actual cash, he was willing

sole proprietor of the county. Besides, as addl-
tional territory to the Province he obtained from
the duke his rights, title. ETC.. to the three lower
countries on the Delaware. In fixing the boun-

dispute arose with Lord Baltimore, due to the
ignorance OF the geography Of the Atlantic coast
by the commissioners OF trade and plantations
who In the charters OF the two colonies granted
certain tracts Of the same land to both Penn
and Baltimore.
The charters stated that the boundary between
the two colonies was to be the 10th parallel OF
latitude but no one knew exactly where this
parallel ran. II was intended that PENIS south

and include some of the waters OF the Chesa-

LEGISLATURE AGAIN PLANS ID SURRENDER
 POWER ID FEDERkLS

In commenting upon the propos- posed provision relative to the is suance of licenses for the sale of non intoxicating beer, lager, ale, porter and wines to District judges, L. V. Itay, Seward attorney, stated today that. he was astoniShed to learn that the Democrats who went into office upon the platform of a full territorial form of gov ernment, seem to repeatedly hand over territorial powers and duties to Federal appointive officers. ,
 MT. Ray further stated the ad- ministrative duties of District judges are now onerous and that the judicial duties of such officers should not be further involved with additional administrative af- fairs.
 Tt is beyond my comprehension, j said MT. Ray, ito attempt to fig ure out the reason for these con- tinued, frequent and an almost wholesale surrender, by local leg islatures, of powers delegated by Congress to the people of the Ter ritory. Surely we have gone beyond the kindergarten period and do not need the further parental guidance of Federal appointives."

OF HISTORY BE TURNED BACK IN
 SEWARD oN sUNDAI

On Sunday afternoon, April 16-- Easter Day-at the Liberty Thea tre, the centuries will turn back ward, the gates of the past be un- locked and one shall see pag- cant of the Resurrection.
 One will stand outside the gate of Jerusalem with the sepulcher of Jesus near by and shall watch those of old time, pass back and forth. The spectator shall see John and Peter and Thomas and the other disciples. They will behold the faithful women go sorroWful- ly to the tomb to anoint the Be- loved Body. They shall see the Centurian of Calvary, of whom early Christian tradition says that his name was LonguiuS and that he became Christian Bishop and a martyr for the faith. The spec tator shall tarry for a while with the glad, sweet children of JeruSa- lem who sang their "Hosanna to the Son of David"
 The costumes are historically correct and the whole is beautl- full portrayal of scenes that have profoundly changed the currents of the histories of nations.
 How better could one spend an hour and a half of an Easter Day than in watching this pageant.
