SUBSCRIPTION : $L50 A tear, in advance
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1909.
During the delivery of an address
before the Chicago Congregational Min
isterial Union, on Tuesday evening of
last week, Dr. William A. Waterman
said that while the 'sun was shining on
the day of the death of Abraham Lin
coln, a bright star was distinctly visible
at midday to the people of Washington.
According to his statement the star be
came visible at noon and hung there like
the star of Bethlehem. It was the sub
ject of much discussion. The news
papers took up the mystery, but as time
passed the comment ceased and the sub
ject was forgotten. It is seldom spoken
of now, but reference to the papers of
the time would verify this statement. '
HABBISBURG LETTER.
Fed. 8th. The first bill which reach
ed the Governor and to receive his sig
nature was that providing for the ex
penses of the Legislature, salaries of
members and employees. The prompt
passage was made necessary by the at
titude of1 the State Treasurer, who hesi
tated to advance money without the
appropriation.
A bill has been introduced appropriat
ing $90,000 for the use of the State Live
Stock Sanitary Board in suppressing
epidemics among cattle, particularly
the foot and mouth disease. The trouble
is past now, but the State purposes to
be better prepared for the next out
break, for this is a costly matter. The
Pennsylvania R. R. company paid out
$50,000 for cleaning and fumigating
cattle cars during the recent trouble
Notwithstanding the number and
backing of the bills before the Legisla
ture whose purpose is to provide pen
sions for soldiers and sailors, it is gen
erally believed that this session will not
see a pension bill go to the Governor.
Mr. Stuart has given the. Legislature to
understand that the responsibility for
such a measure is upon it, although he
might treat such a bill in a different way
from what he did in 1907. Charities,
forest lands, roads and bridges seem to
have the call this year.
It seems to be definitely settled that
the bill introduced by Representative
Kiess of LycomingV providing for the re
peal of the law imposing a mercantile
license tax will fail of passage. Organ
izations have been formed and consid'
erable money has been taken from
merchants all oyer the State, presum
ably for the purpose of pushing the bill
through, but actually to line the pockets
of a few fellows who gulled the merch.
ants. It is said that a so-called news
paper man, who is engaged in furnish
ing material from the Capitol for a boil
er-plate association, has a good slice of
the fund. By means of these syndicate
letters, a mass of falsehood s has been
spread over the state, the particular point
being emphasized that it cost the State
all it received to collect the tax. In
resolution of inquiry the Legislature di
rected the' Auditor Gen'l to furnish some
information as to cost of collection
covering the past two years. In a state
ment of facts which could not be con
troverted he showed that last year the
average cost to the State was ten and
six-tenths per .cent, and for the previous
year, it was eleven per cent. Further,
practically all the expense was incurred
in the county where the tax was collect'
ed, made up of advertising, fees of
mercantile appraiser, mileage, postage
etc. It will be up to some people pretty
soon to show what .has. been done with
the "sinews, of war."
The high standing of the commission
that framed the act to reorganize the
school system of the State ought to
commend the bill favorably. No law
on the books pleases everybody, but all
muBt be accepted in a spirit of compro
mise. When one considers the time and
thought spent on the preparation of this
bill, the statuses examined, decisions of
Courts gone over, hearings held and
sjggestions and ideas worked out, the
conclusion is inevitable that the result
of this labor, at the hands of this body,
is the best that could be hoped for. No
changes should be made Without con
sulting the commission.
Representative Marvin has offered a
bill asking $500 toward the expense of a
commission to investigate the question
of making free all the toll bridges on the
Delaware. This is carrying out a plan
formulated by Mr. Farley, of Wayne
county.
Knowing ones say that while the bills
providing for local option will have a
fair show, and will be reported out of
committee, that there is little probabil
ity of any local option bill getting as
far as the Governor this year. Friends
of local option are putting up a fight
nevertheless, and some strong members
are talking and working for it.

OBITUARY.
Death or the Eminent Buffalo At
torney, HcHryW. Box Ilia Early
Struggles and Great bucceas.
Under date of October 19th, 1008, Jhe
writer received a letter from Henry W.
Box, then an invalid at Saranao Lake,
N. Y., from which tho following extract
is taken :
" Looking back over my career,
I recognize you as the first friend that I
struck in Honesdale after coming to this
country, and vou havo always been cood
to me when you have seen me. You gave
mo my letter of introduction to Mr. Nel-
ann . nt.hnrwiuR T nlinnUl tint, hnvfi l()t in
at Kingston. That winter the school was
very much overcrowded, and tho ladies'
parlor was turned into a dining room. I
was ascigneu iu wait un u, uuu wnu umi
. J 1 . 11 IL.i
service, and talcing care ot Mrs. ncison'8
fires, L, got my board and tuition ; and
that was tne start ot my education.
The trifling service to which Mr. Box
refers was rendered more than half a
century ago. It was in 1854 that, then
a youth of eighteen, he came down from
Bethany, and frankly confessing a boy
ish indiscretion which had resulted in his
expulsion from the University of North
ern Pennsylvania, a Methodist institution
which had been established in that vil
lage, and took day scholars as well as
more advanced students, solicited the in
fluence of the writer in securing him ad
mission to Wyoming Seminary, with the
privilege of defraying his expenses by
rendering their equivalent in menial ser
vices. As the writer had already been
at the Kingston school for some time,
and was honored with the friendship
of the then principal, the late Dr. Nel
son, the letter written him at Mr. Box's
request had the desired effect, and the
boy was enrolled as a student when the
next term opened.
His education at that time was quite
as meagre as his means. Born in Corn
wall, England, April 25, 1836, the death
of his father left him while eight years
of age to the care of his mother, on
whose shoulders rested the burden of
supporting a large family. His early
years were passed in a constant struggle
with poverty and without educational
advantages ; so that when, in 1851, he
came to this country he had scarcely
mastered the English alphabet. Fortu
nately an uncle, William Pethick, living
at Bethany, took an interest in the lad
and furnished him his. first home in his
adopted land. Henry, then a boy of
fifteen, ignorant as to book learning,
and unused to our customs and manner
of living, could do but little to recom
pense his relative for the fatherly care
bestowed upon him ; but in his long
after life and days of phenomenal pros
perity, he always held his benefactor in
the most grateful remembrance. When,
through the, kind ofllcesof Mr.. Pethick
and the elder Mrs-. Harrison Gray Otis,
then living in Bethany, the, boy was ad'
mitted to the primary classes in the
University, his backwardness afforded
his fellow pupils much amusement, but
his determined application and rapid ad'
vance in his studies, as well as.a certain
sturdy selfcassertiveness, always one of
his characteristics, soon won for him
place in their respect and regard. Even
the final rupture which ended his days
at that institution was not greatly to his
discredit. A breach of propriety on the
part of a member of the faculty coming
under Ins observation he had, boy-like
imparted his discovery to another, and
he was himself sacrificed to save the rep
utation of the real offender.
At Wyoming Seminary, notwithstand
ing the humble relation he was com
pelled to bear to the institution, the
cheerful disposition which he brought to
his duties, and the earnestness with
which he pursued his studies very soon
secured him the good will of the instruc
tors and the respect and friendship of
his fellow students. When his attain
inents ha'd reached the point which war
ranted such a step, he entered his name
as a law student in the office of- Judge
Collins, in Wilkes-Barre, and commenc
ed reading Blackstone under the super
vision of that eminent attorney. On his
graduation he engaged in teaching, at
times as private tutor and at others in
the public schools, thus supplying him
self with the funds necessary for his sup
port and the continuance of his legal
studies until he entered the law office of
Wm. H. & S. E. Dimmick, in Hones.
dale. On the 8th of September, 1860, in
company with Frederick Fuller, now of
Scranton, Marshal Wheeler and W. L
Hcadley, he was admitted to the Wayne
County Bar. In the spring of the fol
lowing year he removed to Buffalo, N
Y., for the purpose of locating there for
the practice of his profession.
Probably the most strenuous portion
ot hiB me was his early experience in
Buffalo. It was essential for him to fa'
mlliarize himself with the. code of New
York, and during such preparation it
was necessary that he should hold some
position which would yield him the
means of living. He had eight dollars
in his purse when he arrived in "The
Queen City, of the Lakes," and it
was destined that it would be many
months before he again became the
possessor of so much wealth. After
many disappointments he secured a po
sition as clerk in the office of Sherman
S. Rogers at a compensation of two dol
lars per week, to which he managed to
add an occasional small fee picked up
through attendance at the police courts
His fare at that time consisted mainly of
crackers and cheese, which he kept in
his wash-stand drawer, and his bed a
mattress, which during offlct hours wm
shut up in n wardrobe, and on which he
slept on the floor at night. These facto
as to his extreme poverty at that period
are mentioned as a contrast to the pros
perity with which he was afterward
blessed, his holdings a few years ago
being variously estimated at from half
a million to a million dollars.
Mr. Box was admitted to the Buffalb
barFeb. 2, 1862, and fora few years there-
after he practiced alone, devoting his
attention to criminal law, of which he
made a specialty, with signal Buccess.
He formed a partnership with Wm. H.
Gurney, and later with F. R. Perkins,
who was then city attorney. The flrm'B
business increased, and in the' ',70's it
became Box & Norton. At this time the
Buffalo Street Railway, then owned by
S. V. R. Watson, was a client of the
firm which on January 1, 1884, became
Box, Hatch & Norton.
In the fall of 1886 E. W. Hatch was
elected Judge of the Superior Court, and
the firm became-Box, Norton & Bushnell,
which continued until Aug. 1, 1901, when
Clarence M. Bushnell withdrew from the
firm, and Mr. Box retired from the active
practice of his profession. One of Buf
falo's leading attorneys said of Mr. Box.
on learning of his death, "He was one
of the most successful trial lawyers the
bar of Erie county has ever known."
But his greater work was in the up
building of the street railroad system, of
which he was counsel for the long period
of 31 vears. or from 1870 Until 1901. In
the organization of the various com
nanies embraced within the Buffalo
street railroad system of that period his
work was able and indefatigable. Be'
sides the Street Railway Company, Mr.
Box had for clients the Buffalo Gas Co
the Bell Telephone Co., the' Western
Union Telegraph. Co., Union Fire In
surance Co.. Third National '"Bank and
other laree corporations. Hib success
a? a corporation lawyer in his last years
outrivalled his earlier work as a enm
inal lawyer. He was also largely con-.
cerned in real estate transactions.
Of a charitable and philanthropip
character was the work to which he de
voted himself following his retirement
from active practice of his profession
In the past eight years he caused the
erection of 400 sanitary homes tor work
ins men on the East Side. Buffalo. In
1893 Mr. Box was one of the coramiss
ioners to the World's Fair from New
York State.
He was a member of the Buffalo and
Country Clubs ; a life member of the
Buffalo Library, Historical Society and
Fine Arts'Academy. Mr. Box was a
lover of high-class art. His collection
of paintings, now loaned to the Albright'
Art Gallery, has proved a source of de.
light to connoisseurs. He was also a
man of very decided literary tastes. His
library is one of the finest in the city.
Mr. Box's health became seriously im
paired some years ago, and since that
time it has been his custom to spend his
summers, in Canada and the Adiron
dacks, and the colder months in Cali
lornia and the South. About two years
ago he passed some time with his fami
ly on the Pocono, following which he
paid his last visit to Honesdale, where
he had a large number of warm personal
friends, and where his mother sleeps in
Riverdale cemetery. He'died at Saran
ac Lake, in the Adirondacks, on Sunday.
last, February 7th, 1909, in the cottage
formerly occupied by Robert Louis Ste'
venson, of whose writings he was a great
admirer. His remains were removed to
Buffalo, and the funeral was held on the
afternoon of Wednesday last. Mr. Box
is survived bv his widow, (Mary Mason
Peabody) to whom he was married
1865, and an adopted daughter, Miss
Mary E. Box. Also by a number of rel
atives living in this vicinity.
Local Institute.
The teachers of Lake and Salem town
ship held their local institute at Lake
Ariel, Jan. 30th.
The teachers assembled at 10 A. M.,
and the morning session opened by
singing "America." Devotional ex
ercises were conducted by Supt. Koeh
ler. After singing "Flow Gently, Sweet
Alton," Supt Koehler expressed the de
sire that all the teachers should enter
freely in the discussions.
The first paper, "SchoolPunishment"
was read by Miss Arabella Jones. Few
rules should be made but all violations
of theBe rules should be visited by
punishment. Every child has the right
to demand of us as the chief element of
his future welfare, that we train him to
a wholesome respect for law. The sub-'
ject was thoroughly discussed by Supt.
Koehler and several of the teachers.
Miss Elsie Howe, in her paper, "How
I Teach Beginners," explained fully the
way she teaches the pupils in her first
grade. A discussion of the several meth
ods in teaching primary reading follow
ed. A very interesting paper on "Geogra
iphy" was read by Miss Florence-Jones,
After a thorough discussion of this sub.
ject, the session closed.
The afternoon session opened by sing,
np "Blue Bells of Scotland." An ex
cellent paper on "Ways in which our
Common Schools may be Improved,"
was read by Miss Miller. The directors
should be men who are interested in all
educational matters, not favorites of
some political party. Comfortable school
houses, pleasantly located, should be
erected. -Well trained teachers should
be chosen. The most important thought
brought out, was the centralizing ot
schools. The time will come when the
"rural ihool" will b a thing of tha
past. The discussion which followed
was full of interesting thoughts.
"My First Experience" by Miss Alma
Schuller was an interesting account of
her joys and discouragements during her
first year 8 work.
"School Management" was the sub-
ect of Fred. Bieshcr's paper. Good or
der is necessary if you wish to realize
gdod results of your work. Always havo
your plan for each day's work arranged
with careful consideration of the sub
jects. "Importance of Nature Study and
how to Tcacn' It" by Prof. J. D. Storm.
Ths subject has been sadly neglected in
our common schools. Tho pupils are
seldom called upon to study nature.
An intelligeut'intercs't should be arous-
ed.
It trains the child's power of ob-
servation and teaches him an apprecia
tion of nature, also of nature's great
noets. Bryant and Wordsworth. The
teacher must have a definite plan of
work. Use objects in teaching it. To
be prepared to teach this important
study, the teacher should possess a
Botany, Zoology, Physiology and some
good work on Nature Study.
The last paper on the program "A
Successful Teacher" was read by Leon
Scudder. You must make yourself use
ful to your pupils. Teach them to do
their work with mechanical accuracy.
After an instructive talk on "How to
make out our Monthly, Report" by
Supt; Koehler, the institute was closed
by'singing" Way Do wn Upon the Suwanee
River."
-The institute was well attended. Many
teachers from adjoining townships were
present and took part in the discussions.
