History of Newark
NEWARK'S KNACK AT MAKING THINGS Written by Frank J. Urquhart
Photos Loaned by Dr. Wm. S. Disbrow
EWARK has always known how to make things. There is no more gainsaying this than there is disputing the fact that the town came into being in mid-May, 1666. It has been "in the breed," to use a homely old expres- sion, since the beginning. Moreover, there is proof enough at hand that the founders expected, sooner or later, that the community was going to do one kind of manufacturing or another. The sharp and comprehensive glances of the very pioneer committee of the settlers, who came here and traversed the ground at least once before the actual settlement, saw the possibilities that abode in the almost innumerable brooks and stream- lets splashing down the nearer hillsides, affording ample water power.
There was also a certain deftness about them that the close reader of their Old Minute Book soon detects. Whatever they did they did well. Three-quarters of a century ago, men engaged in re- moving the last surviving traces of ancient homes — habitations of the second or third generation of Newark folk- —
took special note of the extreme stability of even the crumbling ruins. The ob- servers, good workmen themselves, mar- veled at the traces of excellent work- manship that they were able to discern.
We all of us know, today, by our re- markably well laid out Broad Street, by its ingenious accommodating of itself to the contour of the blufif which still sur- vives along the river front, and by its gratifying width — that the founders were no ordinary men. They saw far — very far — ahead, and they utilized every physical advantage they discovered in this wilderness, thus permitting us to realize their breadth of vision and their capacity for doing whatever it seemed meet and fitting for them to do, far better than most of their neighbors.
They were neat, orderly and system- n.tic in their work. This is not hearsay ; the Old Minute Book proves this for us. over and over again. They had system and method. They at once went at the draining of the marshes— and the marsh was all about them, in the very center of the town. They told oflf the able-bodied Contmucd on page ig

men into squads to ditch the pubHc lands, seeing to it that each did his full and proper share. They fined hini if he failed in this ; the "slacker" had no rest, lie could not live in idleness upon his own acres. It was necessary that he should ditch his own land, in order that the few highways and the lands of others might be relieved speedily in times of Hood and in prolonged rainy weather. So it was also when it came to building the roads (which was largely
"Wake-up Drum" — 16G6
a matter of widening and straightening and "short-cutting" the Indian trails) ; each man did his part. On "burning" days — when the salt meadows were to be cleared by flame and when brush was to be similarly disposed of in clearings — the proper sort of day, after a rain, with the wind from the proper quarter and after due notice to the town by drum- beat, was an imperative necessity.
When it came to the building of their first grist mill (on the north side of the ]:)resent Clay Street, a short distance to the west of Broad Street) they were ex- ceedingly particular that it should be done in the best manner. Two or three tried to build it, and the town shook its head — the builders did not measure up to the high standard required. At last Robert Treat took the job into his own hands — and the mill was soon in o]:)era- tion. This was one of the last public services Robert Treat gave to the com- munity before returning to Connecticut.
Ten years or so after the settlement, the town meeting voted a fine upon the
luckless shoulders of anyone who should mar or otherwise seriously deface one of the trees which the town's officers had set aside to be kept inviolate (mani- festly for the beautification of the town). They would not tolerate slovenliness nor untidiness any more than they would laziness. They were striving for a comely, well ordered village — and they surely got it. A hundred years later, during the first three or four decades after the War for Independence, travelers who found their way to Newark, many of whom were cultured Frenchmen and Englishmen, wrote with great enthu- siasm in their books of the village. One counted it the most beautifid village he had seen in his travels over a large part of the world, and many spoke of it as beautiful. All this was the fruitage of the earnest, high-minded efiforts of the first generations, who gave Newark a masterful push along right lines.
But to return more closely to the making of things, to the early, albeit faint, manifestations of the people's trend toward the industries. Newark had a tannery as early as 1698, and a son-in-law of Robert Treat, Azariah Crane ( son of Jasper the Founder, who probably laid out the town) built and owned it.
Newark had one or more boat builders from the very beginning. It had coop- ers and men of other trades. Sometimes it subsidized skilled mechanics to settle here, by giving them land, free. It was not long before the town could manu- facture almost everything it needed in the way of utensils ; farm implements and such things that it could not make it got from New York, bartering its farm produce for the goods.
Early in the Eighteenth Century, the thrifty Newarkers discovered that the red sandstone, of which there was an abundance and which they had already begun to use for foundation stones for their homes, was marketable. Where was their first quarry? No one can be absolutely certain today, but we may rest assured it was not very far from Mill Brook (First River) — the stream upon whose banks Robert Treat erected the first grist mill.

there were ancient quarry holes along the north bank of Mill Brook, nearly up to the present Branch Brook Park. One of the most ancient quarries, however, was on the north side of Bloomfield Avenue, a little west of Belleville Avenue. This was long, long before the Clifton-Bloomfield Avenue quarries were so much as dreamed of.
Well, all the stone taken out of these
they found the outcroppings in abun- dance. One could literally fill his saddle bags with the ore, just picking it off the ground. So they moved their earthly possessions up the trails through the Caldwell and Roseland region, and be- yond, and sat themselves down, per- manently, on the banks of the Whippany River. Soon their forge fires were alight, and they burned without cessa-

quarries for market was rolled or hauled down the hillside and to the dock near where Mill Brook lost itself in the Pas- saic. Thence it was deposited upon the staunch, light-draft boats of the period. All this made a sort of business centre at what is now the Broad and Clay Street neighborhood, and it looked at one time as if the business heart of the community would fix itself there.
About the year 1700, possibly two or three years later, enterprising Newark men learned, presumably from the Indians, of what for that time were rich deposits of iron ore on the hills of Morris County. They got the Red Men to show them where the iron was. and
tion until the War for Independence and for a goodly time thereafter.
Thus the present Whippany w^as be- gun— yes, and the flourishing Morris- town, also — by Newark folk. It is said that when Washington first found his way to Morristown, and rode his horse out into the neighboring country, nothing interested him so much as the forges. He knew that from these he was to get cannon balls for his guns. He noted, further, that the men at the forges were fine, muscular, upstanding chaps. "I must have some of these men for my army." he is reported to have said — and no doubt he got them.

With the opening of the War for In- dependence, all these stirrings of early industry came well nigh to a standstill in and near Newark. War was too close to her doors. She was on the edge of hostile territory, from the time New York fell into the hands of the British in the fall of 177G, until the Declara- tion of Peace, in 1783. The able men, the men of red blood, as we would say, were in the regiments of the Continental line or were serving for longer or shorter periods in the militia. The soil had to be tilled, in order that the people might have food. So all industries, except farming languished.
But throughout all those grim, dark years, men of brains and initiative were moving here and there about New Jer- sey, men of the Continental Army, the bright young gentlemen of the Generars staff — Alexander Hamilton and others. They were "live wires" ; they hustled. They had to, to keep up with their chief, Washington. They saw the possibili- ties of the region, and when peace came and the creation of the industries was recognized as vital if the new country was to get up on its feet, stand erect and maintain its dearly-bought inde- pendence— these men were ready with facts and with figiires to stir the people to the new order of things.
To start an industry in the first two or three decades after the War for Inde- pendence, was to create a patriotic en- terprise. The shop or mill owner was looked upon as, in a sense, a public bene- factor. Hamilton, in Washington's Cabinet, jireached eternally the great need for manufacturing, the fostering of the useful arts. Mis gospel was that of hundreds of other men ; so the wheels began to turn.
Hamilton remembered Passaic Falls, from his old campaigning days. He remembered Newark, too. He came here, repeatedly, to confer with some of the leading men of this town as to the establishment of a manufacturing com- munity. Many of these conferences were held in the home of Klisha Bou- dinot which stood on the site of the new Public Service Terminal building. They decided that their proposed new town should be named after the then Governor
of the State, Paterson. The town had a name, when it was still a toss-up in the present Springfield, in the section (then far out of the town of Newark) along the Passaic, near the present whether it should be built on the brook Fourth Avenue ; or at Passaic Falls. Hamilton favored the Falls, and he won.
In the meantime, new shops were springing up, feebly, to be sure, but in- creasing steadily in numbers, here in Newark, around our beloved old Four Corners. And an interesting fact about that beginning is that the Newark men in the van in all of these innovations were almost without exception veterans of the then very recent war.
Why was this? The writer will let the reader figure it out, contenting him- self only with reminding him of what has already been said, that the in- dustries created after the war were looked upon as patriotic enterprises. The men who had risked their lives that America might be free, were real pa- triots. They now turned the same splen- did courage to that best of all uses of which the world has any knowledge, the fostering of peace through work, through industry.
Moses Combs, who really put the town's industries on a well organized and practical basis, beginning with his shoemaking plant, was a soldier of the Revolution. Captain Pennington, who became Governor of New Jersey, was a hatter before the war and returned to his trade for a short time when it was over. Elisha iJoudinot, already men- tioned, was connected with the Conti- nental Army. The real organizer of the stage coach lines here and for many years a sort of transportation magnate, was Lieutenant Colonel John Noble Cummings. and there were more of pre- cisely the same stuff. Newark has never done them half enough honor.
The first Inde])endence Day celebra- tion in Newark of which we have any record was in 1788. The account of the festivities is mo.st instructive. The war was but five years behind the people. They were sick and weary of the clash of arms. The comnnmity was just stag- gering back to its feet after the fearful

tirain upon its resources of every sort. They had a procession; yes, but there was nothing martial about it. A half troop of horse was the only trace of the military spirit, and the gentlemen in the saddle do not appear even to have worn uniforms. All the music they seem to have had was the ancient and honorable fife and drum. And the paraders were nearly all of them connected with one industry or another, except the school- bovs, who marched with their books un-
River, at the foot of the present Bridge Street, the laying down of the rough log road across the marshes to the Hacken- sack, and the building of a bridge across the Hackensack. Before this great work could be so much as started, the men of means and initiative felt it was neces- sary to erect a new church, as the old one was too small. So the present First Presbvterian Church was built, and finished in 1791. About that time the Academy was erected at Broad Street

der their arms. Of course, the farmers were in greatest number, but it is sur- prising how many other callings were represented. Here they are :
Tanners, curriers, cordwainers, car- penters and joiners, quarrymen, stone cutters, masons, blacksmiths, scythe makers, coach and chair makers, paint- ers, wheelwrights, comb makers, clock and watch makers, tailors, hatters, sad- dlers and harness makers, coopers, butchers, bakers, weavers, dyers and fullers, tobacconists, ditchers, furnace men. millers, ship carpenters.
One may call this Independence Day demonstration the beginning of a new epoch for Newark, the formal erection of the industries to a place of deserved prominence and dignity.
But there was needed one more mas- ter-stroke, to really put Newark unon the industrial map. Tt was the building of the first bridge across the Passaic
and the present Academy Street, to pro- vide the town with a good school, and take the place of the building in Wash- ington Park, ruined by the English in 1779. Then they were ready for the bridges. These were began in 1792 and completed early in 1795.
Now was the town of Newark ready to wax and grow strong. This great improvement shortened the connection between New York and westward by several hours. From the beginning of the settlement Newark had been side- tracked as it were, being off the main line of travel. The East and West traffic passed through Elizabeth. To and from Elizabeth slow, clumsy and sometimes dangerous vessels moved the people and their goods, so. generation after generation. Newark had dozed and drowsed upon its hillsides, a pretty little village, and notliing more.

All that vanished, when the bridges were open. Newark now came into its own. Its shops and factories ninltiplied. Several lines of stages carried people into and out of the town, six days a week. Wagons and drays moved out the finished product and brought in the raw material in ever-increasing volume.
Soon came Newark's wizard of m- vention, Seth Boyden, from New Eng- land, only a youth, to devise machinery for the making of better goods, and cheaper and in greater volume. Labor
There is but one thing more to say, and this in conclusion. With the coming of the industries the pretty village of Newark sickened. The Newarkers of a hundred years ago and more had, somehow lost the neatness and orderli- ness of the founders and their immedi- ate successors. The new generations, following the War for Independence, be- came too intent on their work ; they piled their rubbish high about them. Broad Street became a wallow of mud. The people prospered, but they neglected

came down from the countryside in re- sponse to the demand. Then the early immigrants, the industries, increasing steadily, decade by decade. In the early Thirties of the last century the first railroad poked its clumsy length into Newark by the way of the first Centre Street bridge, around into Market, up to Broad, down into Broad and William Streets, and still further down later. It was closely followed by the Morris and Essex, which, for years hauled its trains with horses down Broad Street, through Park Place to Centre Street, thus to the line of the original road.
Development followed swiftly after that. We know the result today; we see it all around us.
their town. It was most regrettable, but Newark was simply following the order of things incidental to almost every other American village that had sprung suddenly out of quiet, easy-going ways, into a feverish striving in industrial activity.
But we are changing all that today ; we have been changing it for the last two decades or so. Newark is now learning how to be rich and powerful and prosperous and at the same time attractive to live in. The new and greater, broader era is now with us. Newark is going to be a beautiful city. Indeed, it is so already to a far greater degree than most of us seem to com- prehend.

Newark, the Industrial City
OH
NEWARK'S KNACK AT D()IN(; THINCiS Bv William E. Sackeit
IE genius that made a Sett- ers' holiday of the opening (if the first grist mill and of tlie first saw mill in Old Xewark, was instinct with the prophecy of a proud industrial des- tiny that the New Newark — the Newark of today — has more than fulfilled. And there is greater yet for her behind the veil of the future ! By the time her next quarter-millennial feast is due she will have become that American Metropolis which Alexander Plamilton glimpsed on the west shore of the Hudson, away back in the Revolutionary days when he wrote the charter of the Society for the Promotion of Useful Alanufactures. It is not a far cry to the time when all of Essex will be Newark ; and the ag- grandized city, now the fourteenth in population in the country, will reach out for Jersey City and Hoboken, over there; for Paterson and Hackensack, up there ; and for Elizabeth, down yon- dt ^ and gather them all under her wing into one great municipality that will challenge even Greater New York's metropolitan supremacy.
Bifj Business Figures
r>ut that is prophecy; and prophecy is not the purpose of this book. The Newark of today has indeed, already achieved a greatness that the dream of the prophet is not needed to glorify. She has let nothing stand in the way of her resistless march to pre-eminence. When the seas defied her expansion, she wrested the meadows from them and planted her mills where the waters had been. She has pressed herself, through marsh and across meadow, into 23y^
squares miles of territory ; and, on the front of the bay and river which vainly challenged her efforts at expansion, she has a wharf frontage of IOI/2 miles. The tonnage of the business she does at that front reached nearly five millions last year, and its estimated value was close to forty millions. And, restless ever, she is now again planning, on her bay front, a new industrial city with a new water expansion that will give her a new station among the humming cen- tres of the nation.
Her water freightage is, of course, but a part — and a small part — of her in- dustrial activity. The Exposition her manufacturing captains opened in the First Regiment Armory, three or four years ago, showed that. It was varied and imposing enough to attract 175,000 visitors ; and the profits enabled the Board of Trade to get out a large vol- ume exhibiting the details of the city's busy workshops. That volume, sought all over the world for its pointers, lists ?.")2 distinct lines of industrial endeavor in which Newark is engaged. Her manufacturing industries, indeed, en- gaged a capital of $175,000,000, and distributed $00,000,000 among their 75.000 operators last vcar. In their shops thev transformed '$150,000,000 of raw material into $250,000,000 of the finished product. Twenty-three freight delivery yards were needed for the hand- ling of their stuff, and 254 freight trains daily for its transportation. The ton- natre delivered in the citv last year reached the fine total of 3.785.027. and that which went out aggregated 1.122.- 072. Six railroads helped to carry this inland freight of hers ; while the under- river tubes, and twenty-three admirably- Continucd on page 35

The Billion Dollar Mark
Allied with these, financially, are two big life and three fire insurance com- panies. The combined resources of the city's national and state banks and trust and insurance companies go above the billion dollar mark ; it's the first time in her history when the city has been able to boast of her ten-figure greatness. There are, besides, more than 200 build-
ing and loan associations which have become the savings banks of nearly 70,000 shareholders; and these take in a trifle short of $30,000,000 a year.
Her municipal equipment is on the same scale. It costs her $10,000,000 a vear to "keep house." But her ratables reach a total of $420,311,000 and her own 95 public buildings, parks and pro- pertv of other classes are valued at up- wards of $70,000,000.

to restore the i'assaic River to its mountain-stream purity. Her city hall, accounted one of the finest municipal buildings in the coimtry, represents a value of $3,000,000 ; the handsome pub- lic library, of $700,000; and Centre Market, of $900,000. These, with assets of other kinds, such as improvement assessment arrears, make her public debt of $;39.O00,OO() secure, with a total of nearly $10(),U()(),000 of possessions.
The city had 255 miles of paved streets at the beginning of last year; and her 85 miles of brick and concrete sewers and 220 miles of pipe sewer tokened an outlay of $5,770,090 when the last published figures were made up. The reservoirs of her new water plant have a storage capacity of 9,285,700,0(M) gallons ; and the plant is equal to a gravity supply of 50,000,000 gallons per day ; the present daily consumption is 42,000.000 gallons. She is lighted by 1G2 flaming arcs, 2,565 arc electrics. 2,000 c. p. lamps, 207 incandescents and 2,037 gas lamps.
Recreation Spots
But it is not all work and no play with Miss Newark. She likes her recreation ; and the County Park Board has pro- vided her, in Branch Brook, with a splen- did reserve that landscape artists every- where rank as the finest artificial park in the country. Of her own parks — those she owns — ^Military Park, in the heart of the city, is the largest, and. more than all the others rich with his- toric associations. The city holds that grateful breathing spot at a value of $6,000,000. Washington Park, a little to the north of it, is set down as worth about $2,000,000; and Lincoln Park, at the other end of Broad Street, is quoted by the appraisers at $1,200,000. These are. however, only three of the city's recreation centres. There are 18 others, besides the public playgrounds which she has opened for her little ones.
For the rest, Newark, with a death rate of 14.3. can hold her own for health, and it is a new assurance of her growth that her birth rate is more than twice as big. And with a mean tem])eraturc of 53.1° she is a decidedly salubrious ])lace to live in.

Newark's Educational Advantages
Concise Description of the School Facilities of the City of Newark
ROM the start, Newark has realized the worth of the school. The Puritans who founded her caught the in- fection from the Puritans of the East. She had not yet coined the word, but that "Efficiency" of which one hears so much nowadays, was the up- building idea that entered into all her enterprises. She thought that her children ought first to be shown "How," if they were to be fitted to "Know How" ; and as soon as she had made a clearing for her cabin homes she began to think about the school.
Within ten years of the time when she had felled the first tree, she had her little classroom for the new population

of the colony. John Catlin was not an Elliott or a Hibben, or a Butler, by any means. The times did not call for it. The primitives schooled their children in reading at home ; the school room was only for writing and 'rithmetic and the trowser-dusting birch. But Catlin's name will live immortal in our annals as that of our first School Master. A tab- let at Broad and Commerce Streets marks the spot where he swished the rod of discipline.
Burr and Princeton
And, as typifying her expanding edu- cational aspirations, the starting of the great Princeton University of today, by the Rev. Aaron Burr, in the old Meet- ing House on Branford Place, was a fete-day event. The Reverend was the father of the Aaron Burr who is famous in American history as the duelist with Hamilton, and later became Vice-Presi- dent of the United States. He was, when he founded the college that has grown into Princeton, the pastor of the old First Church on Broad Street, and afterwards the College's first President.
And so, with incidents of more com- mon place character, the school idea has broadened and deepened and lengthened here till Newark has — well, one might say, accumulated — one of the proudest educational establishments in the coun- try. Her school properties are worth between ten and eleven millions of dol- lars. Under the eye of Dr. Addison B. Poland, selected as her School Superin- tendent fifteen years ago because of his pre-eminence among the educators of the country, are 4 High Schools. 5.^) Continued on page 55

practical work of life. In the Boys' Industrial School pupils are tutored in woodwork, printing, electricity, etc. ; and in the girls they are given lessons in sewing, dressmaking, millinery, cook- ing, and in other things every woman ought to know.
Besides, there are 10 classes for defec- tives, 7 for the deaf and the blind, 1 for cripples, and .") for open-air work and study. Summer schools are maintained in 2 High and 30 Elementary School buildings, and the experiment of all-year schools is being tried also. The ambition of her young folk who can devote only their evenings to learning "How," makes it necessary to conduct evening high school classes in six schools, besides other classes in the two industrial schools and in seventeen of the ele- mentary schools.
$3,000,000 a Year For the instruction of the 70.000 who flock to these great educational cen- tres— for some of them are among the most pretentious and ornate and well- equipped in the United States — the city
maintains a corps of 1,810 teachers for the day classes, 441 for the evening classes, and 132 for the all-year institu- tions. And it costs Newark a pretty penny too! The balance sheet of 1915 exceeded $3,000,000. Of this imposing total, the railroads contributed $437,725 ; $53,500 came from the State Fund; $1,450,000 from the State School Tax. and Newark City paid the rest of the bill. Of course she is also heavily repre- sented in the state tax and state fund contributions. But Newark holds it among the very best of her investments and pays the bill with smiling satis- faction. The 70,000 enrollment repre- sents 19% of the city's population. In 1880 the ratio was only 13%. New rigors in the enforcement of attendance laws account for the nearly fifty per cent, better showing.
All the modern ideas are incorporated in the splendid system thus briefly sketched. There are school playgrounds, gymnasiums, vocational instruction, evening lectures, that are every one a treat, for the masses ; nurses to watch the youngsters and physicians to cure them of their ailments ; and Dr. Poland

children, set oil in groups, rotate in their class work.
Boys Lodyiny House School
The first of the public schools was in the old "Boys' Lodging House," in which the Rev. C. H. Yatman was the moving spirit. The distinction of being the most venerable of the standing pub- lic school buildings is divided between that on State Street near Broad, and that on Market Street opposite the Court House. They have survived since 1847. The contrast between them and the imposing Central High School on High Street, and the more ornate and quite as imposing South Side High School, tells the story of the greater city picturesquely. The latest of the build- ings to be completed, the AIcKinley in the heart of the Italian Colony, is, too, a model of educational completeness. These notations are not invidious. The city is studded with temples of learning that outshine the university of even modern days in some larger cities. Nearly $700,000 was spent on the Cen- tral Manual Training School on High Street. The South Side High is valued at nearly $150,000. The block-long Normal School on Belleville Avenue at Fourth, which the city built for its own use, but turned over to the State, repre- sents an investment of $375,000. The schools on Burnett Street and the Lafay- ette, Morton and Newton Schools have a value exceeding $300,000 each, and there are a half dozen others close to that line.
The Parochial School Aid
The city's free school equipment is supplemented by a parochial system that aids it substantially in its duty to its young. Under the fostering and en- lightened care of the Rev. John A. Dil- lon, Superintendent of Schools in the Newark Catholic Diocese, the parochial schools have grown enormously in effi- ciency and power. They are graded as our city grammar schools, and their diploma opens the door of the City High Schools to their graduates.
They relieve the communities in this Diocese of the instruction of more than fiO.OOO pupils. More than 13,000 of the total are tutored in the 26 schools in

Their equipment here runs up into the millions in value and money has not been spared in providing facilities for the army of little students. The St. Rose of Lima School building on Orange Street in the Roseville Sec- tion, cannot have cost less than $150,000. That of St. Columba's School on South Street represents another outlay of $100,000. St. Benedict's is a type of many other edifices that come up to the $75,000 mark. And altogether, they make a splendid — indeed, in view of the pressure for public school room a needed — complement to the system the city has built up to prepare her rising citizenship for the luring possibilities of the vears ahead of it.

A Little Talk about her One Hundred and Seventy-nine
Churches; the People who go to them,
and the Others who don't
Written by William E. Sackett
N Newark's early history the Church was, so to speak, the Municipal Building also. The pioneers of 1666 were a well-established congrega- tion of Presbyters from Branford, Con- necticut, that came here to build a church and a city for the church to con- trol. The church went up on Broad Street, about opposite the place which gets its name from the old Connecticut town ; and became — to be more exact, was made — the centre of the new town's
Old First Church
civic and political as well as of its reli- gious activities. One could not vote in the Town Meeting unless he had a "First Church" membership card.
The Theocracy — about the last of its kind to be attempted in this country — ran things here for many years. Its atmosphere lingered till the Theocracy expired in giving birth to the Presby- terian College which has grown into Princeton University. The old church's pastor of that day was the Rev. Aaron Burr — a name made even more famous in American annals by the wit and polish and exploits of the pastor's son, who first slew Hamilton, next became Vice-President of the United States, and wound up a career, as romantic as it was brilliant, with a plot against the life of the nation that had so honored him. The chief distinction of the elder Burr rests on his having become the first Presi- dent of Princeton College. And even to this day, the tradition of the city's religious birth is reflected in the preponderance of its Presby- terian Churches.
Some More Reminiscences
So, if space pennitted, one might go on weaving romances about the beginnings of scores of the one hun- dred and seventy-nine churches, chapels and mission houses that do so nmch for the uplift of the people. There, for instance, is the Old House of Prayer, up near the Lackawanna Station — well, the pop- ular nunor that it was once a Washington headquarters is a mere superstition ; but it is true that the Hessians housed in it on their way to the drubbing Washington gave Continued on page 63

them in Trenton a little later. On the portals of Old Trinity — up in Military Park — a plate, implanted there by pat- riotic S. A. R., tells how, in 1776, "Washington and his army passed be- neath this tower on their masterly retreat to the hills beyond the Delaware to gather strength for the bold blow at Princeton and Trenton," that turned the tide of the Revolution.
So it goes. The older of the church buildings "look" the history there is in them. From the Old Church at Lyons Farm came the First Baptist congrega- tion that founded what is now known as the Peddie Memorial. The Halscy Street Methodist is the mother church of the line of beautiful places of wor- ship that faith has scattered all over the city. From such beginnings as these, the denominations grew and grew ; one church no longer answered ; and many, and more, had to be provided for them, till now the city is studded with temples that make it at once beautiful and good.
Of the 179 places of worship there are 35 Presbyterian Churches, 31 Catho- lic, 35 Baptist, 18 Methodist Episcopal, 17 Episcopalian, 11 Synogagues, 10 Lutheran, 8 Dutch Reformed, 4 Evan- gelical, 3 Congregational, 2 Christian Science, 2 Independent, 2 Greek Ortho- dox, 2 Seventh Day Baptist, a Metho- dist Protestant, a Reformed Episcopal, a LTniversalist. and a Christadelphian. For the rest, there are two "undenom- inational," and 3 African Methodist Episcopal Churches. The colored folks have also three of the array of Baptist Churches. A few of the edifices are small ; they are for new congregations or in mission fields. But the great, great majority of them are expensive and ornate edifices that contribute grace- fully to the perspective of the city's landscape. The investment they repre- sent runs up into many millions — twenty would be a conservative estimate.
The Church Population
The number of churches is not, how- ever, a wholly reliable guide for a com- parison as to attendance. At the altars of the 31 Catholic Churches more de- votees gather than around the pulpits of
Rev. Aaron Burr founder of princeton college
the 125 or more Protestant Churches. The congregations in the Catholic Churches exceed the Protestant congre- gations, in the item of membership, by maybe twenty thousand. There is nothing like an accurate church census anywhere. But the approximate figures collated by the Rev. Dr. Davis W. Lusk are quoted everywhere as authoritative. According to them. 50,000 represents the actual membership of the Protestant churches in the city. To these may be added another 50,000 representing rela- tives who go to church with them. That makes a total of 100,000 for the local Protestant community.
The Catholics count all who have been baptised into the faith as members ; there were 120.000 of these in the city last year. As each parish is assessed according to its membership, it may be taken for granted that the total, offi- cially furnished, is not exaggerated. Tt may even be a bit under the mark ; and the Catholic poptdation may actually exceed the 120,000 mark. Presides the Catholics and Protestants who thus account for 220.000 of our 400.000 ix)i)U- Coiitiiiucd on page 65

lation, there are about 5, 000 church folks of uiiscellaneous denominations — hke those of the Greek Church, whose Pope is the Czar of Russia.
In the background is an unafliHated population of some 115,000 that does not go to church anywhere. There are not many of them, however, without their religious leanings, x^s the Catholic system is rigid, and that of the Pro- testants loose, in the matter of gathering the faithful to the fold, the assumption is that if these were forced into either Church, far the larger number would go to the Protestant side. Those thus brought within the Protestant atmos- phere have been estimated as high as 100,000. But that is an outside esti- mate ; and indeed there is no way of telling anything about it — it is all specu- lation. There may be some infidels and scoflFers in the vast unattached throng;
but even they would not care to be count- ed entirely out of the church atmosphere.
Sixty Thousand Hehvews
These speculations are all on the as- sumption that the estimate of G(),ooo Hebrews in the city approaches ac- curacy. The Jewish population grows quite as rapidly, proportionately, as tlie Catholic. An estimate of ten years ago i:)laced their number at only 50,000. They are quite as devoted to their tem- ples as the Catholics to theirs, and can claim few of the community of 115,000 unattached. The men are as regular in their attendance at the synagogues as are the women ; and the Men's Forward Movement, by which the Protestant de- nominations are trying to induce the husbands to go to church with their wives and participate in church work, is hardlv necessarv in the ITouse of Israel.

UT then Newark can play as hard as she can work — and maybe with even more zest. Playroom is one of her neediest needs ; and, in pro- viding herself with it, she thriftily hits a second bird with one stone. Her play- grounds provide, beside the recreation centres, a group of breathing spots for
run — or rather in the short run, because they soon jump values up all around them and so win back for the city in taxes more than she risks to get them. Newark has a lot of these fine in- vestments, to say nothing of the play- grounds and minor recreation centres ; and her Shade Tree Commission is doing what it can to give the whole city

the homes that have them none too abundantly. She finds it pays to keep people well as well as to make them happy. The well man is likely to be a happy man, the happy man to be a well one ; and the happier and healthier they are the greater the power of their arms and the longer the endurance. Plans that make for the either that brings both have their economic, as well as their sanitary, aspects ; they find compensa- tion in the workshop, in the counting room, and in all the varied activities of her busy life. And the breathing spots pay for themselves, too, in the long
a park-scape aspect. Two of the great- est parks in the State are within her limit. One of them is noted among land- scape artists everywhere as the most beautiful artificial park in the country. Neither is under Newark's immediate control ; neither is therefore part of her numicipal equipment; a specially created County Park Board is named by the Supreme Court Justice presiding in the local circuit to manage them. But it nmst not be forgotten that the bulk of the county bills are footed by Newark, and that the fund tliat mam- Continued on page 71

Three other parks within the city limits but also within the County Park Commission's dominion, are fine ex- amples of what the park builders happily call "Neighborhood Parks." They are the East Side, the West Side and the River-bank — laid out and operated with
redolent, every foot of it, of the his- torical past, and part of the city's glory. The reference is now of course to Military Park, the elm shaded Com- mon of the old settlers. If that little patch of green were not so dear to the taxpayer's heart, it might be accounted a bit too dear for the taxpayer's purse. It is less than the hundredth part the size of Branch Brook, let us say for the contrast, but it is worth more than twice as much.

special regard to the immediate local surroundings and needs. The East Side is down on Adams Street toward the Newark meadows ; West Side is on "The Hill" ; River-bank on the Passaic front near Market Street. The twelve and a half acres in East Side Park have been laid out at an expense of $124,372 for land and $53,878 for furnishings. There are twenty-three acres in West Side and the Park Board has spent all told something around $400,000 on it.

would never suspect that all that garden of flowers, of running stream and lake, of woodland patches surrounding great fields of velvet green that appeal to one's sense of magnitude, of nooks and crannies, of arbors and rustic refuges, could have been evolved from anything so unpromising as the swamp it was.

It would be idle to attempt to picture the beauty spots where all is so beauti- lul. The park has cost the county some- thing over $3,500,000 ; and its care with that of the others has grown to be so mighty an undertaking that the Com- mission has found it necessary to have a fitting administration building. That is going up now — a $70,000 home ot brick and terracotta that fits in with the

thousand-hued flower beds terraced from the hill tops to the lake-front; rustic bowers and summer houses ; a patch of refulgent rhodendrons that fairly light the wayside and the chrysanthemum and begonia show recurring season sights.
And so it goes — everything that is brightest, showiest, most restful, in nature. And for the more restless, the busier things of sport — nets for tennis ; wickets for croquet ; bases for "the fan" ; goals for the kicker; links for the golfer; boats for the gondolier and a winding panorama of water to go on ; the bandstand on the lake-edge for the multitude that flocks there as often as the cornet blows the signal ; swings and turn-stiles ; side-bars and slides and punching-balls and all the gym-cracks the youthful soul is devoted to.

At the other extreme of the reserve is the picturesque fountain for which the city is inexcusably reluctant to sup])ly the water ; and over towards the Rosevillc corner is the big stone that tells how the "Boys in Blue" camped there on their way to "the front" in the days of the Civil War.

expansive, with 315 acres ; but, with only about $800,000 spent on it so far, it is not as expensive. It has however, special features that attract particular throngs. There's its race track, for in- stance, its exclusive feature. Much of the park land was in use for many years as the Fair Ground of the State Agri- cultural Society ; and the race course is the heritage of the Commission from that Association. But it has all been made over, and re-topped into the fast- est half-mile course in the East; and a

circle inside the running track for ath- letic games, too. The Road Horse As- sociation airs its trotters there often ; and the track has become so popular that the old grandstand is no longer equal to demands upon it. The Commis- sion has therefore added to the track equipment, at an expense of $40,000, a grandstand of concrete, 2,371 feet long and 71 feet wide.
Both engaged in recreation and beau- tification work, the Play Ground and Shade Tree Commissions are close allies of the park chiefs in city and county. The play ground idea is to utilize the waste places for the outing and amuse- ment of the youngsters ; and they are fitted with all the appliances that make for youthful sport. In most of them are the parallel bars, swings, teeters, slides, great strides, sand boxes, basket ball, bowley ball, baseball, shuffle board.

And, then, there's the bath house facility for the refreshing and invigorating plunge. These bathing resorts are completely equipped. One of them, the Montgomery Bath, cost $110,000. It is claimed to be the finest in the country ; safe to say it is one of the finest, at any rate.

You have to cut its hair and trim its beard and amputate a limb once in awhile ; but the cost of it all is a bagatelle as com- pared with the profit of its nursing.

menship and in war. The Frelinghiiy- sen name has been blazened on the scroll of American scholarship and state-craft for more than a century. One of the family was Burr's successor as President of Princeton College ; and two generations of the family have given New Jersey two noted figures in the United States Senate. He whose monu- ment adorns Military Park was one of these honored two. As a Senator he won nation-wide recognition for the finish of his oratory. President Hayes gave him a seat in his Cabinet with the portfolio of Secretary of State ; and his statue stands in front of the family's homestead now occupied by his son, President Frelinghuysen of the Mutual Benefit Insurance Co. of this city. As for Kearny, every veteran knows the story of his wild cavalry dashes during "The War." The monument in Mili- tary Park, was kicked around and neg- lected in the dust of the corridors of the State House in Trenton for many vears till the S. A. R. rescued it, dusted
it off, and set it up with military honors under the liberty pole.
The figure in bronze of Vicar General Doane, just outside the park gates, com- memorates the work of a Prelate of great civic and church activity. In Washington Park, a bit up the street, is the statue of Seth Boyden, famed as the inventor of the malleable iron process. The equestrian monument of General Washington at the Washington Place corner, is the handsome gift to the city of Amos H. Van Horn ; and C. W. Feigenspan is to erect in Clinton Park an even more imposing monument of General Bartolomeo Colleoni, on horse- back— a reproduction of a historical creation of Andros Verricchio, the Venetian sculptor. The Hikers" monu- ment at Madison Park is a notable con- tribution to the city's statuary ; and one roaming through Branch Brook Park occasionally encounters amid the leaves the chiseled face or form of one im- mortal in art or music or literature, or arms.

Newark's Police Protection
The Transformation of the "Leather Head" into "The
Finest" — Modern Methods that have made the
Policeman the Friend of the People
KWARK began her police business with a constable. That is orthodox ; all new c(iinmunities start out that way. The glamour that hangs around every first of his line hovers over the memory of Thomas Johnson whom the Town Fathers, in January, 1668, named, first of his kind, "to beare the Ofifice of Constable in Our Town for the Year Insuing." One con- stable kept "Our Town" in order for five years, when a second one was ap- pointed; but by 1684 it had become so inconceivably wicked that it was found necessary to increase the force to eight. The first of the Constables was, in a way, a general utility man for the com- munity. He was not only to arrest people, but was a sort of "whip" for the Town Fathers. He came around for a fine from every non-attendant at the Town Meetings, and generally busied himself in making life as uncomfortable as he could for his fellow men. From th's primitive conception of the police function, the idea has branched out into the beneficence that makes the police- man of today the friend of the people, rather than the terror the unsophis- ticated picture him. He guides us, awake; guards us while we sleep; finds our little ones when we lose them (feeds them too, sometimes), and keeps the jo- -ider" from crushing us under his naut at the street crossings. Chief Oi rolice, Michael T. Long, indeed, counts the trafiice service his men ren- der at the points where vehicle and way-

The "Leather Heads"
But the city has not jumped from her constable swathes into the great uni- formed service of today. She has reached it progressively. Next after "Our Town's" constable, came the "Night Watch," as they were officially called, but the irreverent populace dub- bed them "Leather Heads" because they wore helmets like unto that which dis- Continued on page 85

figures the fireman's form divine. This was the only token of their pre-emin- ence among the citizens. It was not until 1846 that they were given the club that has since won world-wide recogni- tion as the token of their authority. And only when "Our Town" had be- come a city did she add a uniform to the helmet and the club, and so dress her "Finest" up for the modern day parade.
The town had meanwhile been divided
in Roseville, and enjoys the distinction of being the first Police Chief in the United States to reach the position as the result of a Civil Service examination. Under his command are 761 men, with 13 Captains, B2 Lieutenants, 55 Ser- geants and 11 Matrons, and the cost of maintenance last year was $1,026,432. The record of their work in the sup- pression of crime is the most notable, even if it be not the most interesting, feature of the Chief's annual report.

into "Watch Districts." When she was incorporated in 1836, she started in with a captain and twelve of the "Leather Heads." It was not till 1854 that they were designated as "Police" and decor- ated with the shields. Three years later the city had her first Chief of Police in the person of Henry A. Whitney ; and, under the administration of fifteen suc- cessors, the department has grown into the great machine for good it is today. Chief Long is the fifteenth of his line. Within the last month he has struck the thirtieth anniversary of his advent into the department. He had served with the detective bureau for some years before he was made captain of the Police Precinct
Last year they bagged six brokers, four artists, twenty-two doctors, a dozen law- years and even five clergymen. There were three Japanese, eight Turks and even a native of Africa in the list. The Russians, Poles and Austrians made up the bulk of the police court crowds.
Thumb-Print Sensations
Newark was the first city in the country to adopt the Bertillon thumb- print system of identification. The Chinese used the thumb-print for signa- ture fifteen hundred years ago ; but it is only within the last fifteen or twenty years that the worth of the finger-mark began to be appreciated in police work.

Boston tried it first on this side of the sea, and Newark was next to follow suit. Superintendent Schwartz is full of stories of the effective operation of the system in fixing guilt. The first con- viction in the United States on thumb- print proof was on evidence procured by our local department; and the first murder fixed on its perpertrator in the country by fingermarks was in the courts of this county.
A remarkable instance of the worth of the system was furnished in connection
police sleuths and is now serving his term in the State's Prison for the crime. But arresting men has been after all a comparatively inconsiderable propor- tion of the work of the department. The police help in so many directions that the men of the force have to be not only level-headed and cool-headed but in- formed. There is hardly a minute in the day when an officer is not confronted by the question of should he act, and how far can he go ? He is the moment- ary judge and juror in every new situ-

with the robbery of the house of Ex- Senator Ernest R. Ackerman, of Plain- field. "Second-story men" got away with a necklace worth $17,000. Supt. Schwartz inspected the porch-posts down which the thief had slidden when escaping, and detected finger-marks that, upon an examination of his records here, proved to be those of a "crook" of na- tion-wide activities. That man had never been even so much as suspected ; and w^as even then away off in Chicago. He was hunted in his haunts by the
ation. So he must know "The Law and the Gospel," the law of the land, the law of humanity, the law of discretion and the law of force. His requirements for the information that fits him to do his fullest duty and yet never exceed it, has led to the establishment of a De- partment School where he is tutored and advised, warned and inspired. Chief Long is particularly proud of this "Col- lege," and lauds it as his chief aid in keeping his department up to the stand- ard of any other in the country.

The Fire-Fighters of Newark
The Blaze of 1836 would not have eaten out the City's Heart if she had been equipped as today
I^WARK has had some not- able fires, and some appeal- ing ones, too, as for instance, that of two or three years ago, that cost the lives of twenty-seven young women. But she has had none that stunned her civic senses as the great blaze of 1836. Sweep- ing the block bounded by Market, Broad, Mulberry and Mechanic Streets, that ate out her very heart. A boarding house blaze in the same locality in 1845 gave the town a fresh fright ; and someone of a flamboyant frame of mind, made a lurid picture of the showy blaze that has got into history. But the epoch making blaze of local annals was that of 1836.
The City's Equipment
If the city had had at command, at that visitation, the splendid fire fighting machine over which Fire Chief Paul J. Moore presides, the flames might have been stayed wdiere they began. If the ravages of the Fire Devil had demanded, he could have rung to the rescue 16 horse-drawn engines, 4 horse-drawn steamers, 21 combination chemical en- gines, 2 horse-drawn hook-and-ladder trucks, 6 motor-driven fire engines, a motor-drawn combination chemical en- gine, and an electric-drawn hook-and- ladder truck. There are many mighty machines in the department; and one among them, the Amoskeag in No. 3 Engine House, with a capacity of 1,300 gallons a minute, can pump a three-line one-and-a-half inch nozzle stream some feet higher than the shining tower of the Prudential Building.
But the periled colony of 1836 had only a volunteer force — enthusiasts, but only amateurs after all — with a wheezy engine or two to fight the flames. The department records do not show when
the half-paid service came into being. But when the steam fire engine replaced the old hand-pump contrivance, the volunteer had to make way for the com- petent engineer; and the old timer sur- vived only to man the machine and stretch the hose and climb the ladder. In 1889 the city put them out of com-

mission entirely with the all-paid depart- ment that has grown in proportions until it has become what it is today.
The present force consists of 466 trained men ; has, besides the Chief, 2 Deputy Chiefs and 5 Battalion Chiefs for its administration ; and is divided into 39 organized companies housed in 33 buildings. The value of the plant is a trifle short of $1,500,000; the cost

of maintenance, $713,430 ; and it was effective in keeping the year's losses, on 1,795 calls, down to less than a million dollars.
A Man and a Horse
Scarce a man in the department has reached his position except through his baptism of fire ; and the Commissioners keep even these seasoned and practiced heroes abreast with the times in the
"Dick"
matter of fire fighting science by requir- ing them all to attend the department "College" once a week. The Dean of the force, as one might say, is Captain Thomas of No. 19 Engine Company — a naval veteran of the Civil War, serving in Captain Cushing's Man-of-Warsman Schokokon, who entered the service in
1873. Of course he is one of the figures in the department. But the talk of the firemen is not all about the men. Their horses are their pets and pride. There are 142 of these; but one of them is specially notable because he holds the record for "runs." That's old "Dick" of Engine Company No. 12's team of three ; and, each horse being known by a number, his is 5G. Paul Moore, now the Chief of the Fire Department, helped to initiate him when he came into the service fifteen years ago. A feature of the fiftieth anniversary fete of the paid Fire Department of New York a year ago, was a procession of horses that had made records in the matter of the number of responses to alarms. The l)est of them was about 1,700; "Dick" beats that, two-to-one, with a record of 3,700. During the years he has been in the department he has not been "absent from duty" except for 33 days when recovering from injuries sustained in the service. He was laid up once by a nail in the foot and again as the result of a collision. "Dick" is a flea-bitten gray, nineteen years old, fifteen and a half hands high, and 1,400 pounds in weight. "And," Chief Moore says, "he's as good a fireman as the best of us."
If there only were space to exploit department lore ! But there is'nt ! And yet, where is there a richer field for it than a firehouse?

How to Spend the Day
Is there a lull in the program — a gap you would fill to best advantage — something to make the holi- day complete and yet not tiresome?
Try a Trolley Trip. Become acquainted with the ex- panse of the greater Newark. Ride out to Eagle Rock, to picturesque Caldwell, or stop off at Verona Lake.
Fast Line for Perth Amboy with connection for shore resorts or trolley express service to New Brunswick, Trenton, Camden and Philadelphia.
Visit Public Service Terminal
Be Comfortable at Home
Learn of the innumerable conveniences and comforts of gas and electric appliances.
The electric fan at the turn of a switch will banish all stufTmess; the gas range, ready on the instant, makes no unnecessary heat; the gas water heater will have the refreshing bath ready just when wanted.
There are many more gas and electric devices for cooking and other household uses that save in time and energy, and at a minimum of cost.

NEWARK'S ANNIVERSARY
Electrical Indicating Instruments
Standard of the World!
An A.C. or D.C. Instrument for every purpose — laboratory, central station or for any form of commercial electrical measurement or testing.
The Weston A. C. Switchboard Instruments
are unrivalled with respect to mechanical and electrical design and workmanship and hence with respect to performance.
Competent engineers know that these Weston Instnmients are the only types that perfectly meet the practical requirements of service, and they likewise know the initial cost is little, if any more, than the cost of inferior instruments, and that because of their continuous accuracy and serviceability these Weston Instruments are much more economical to adopt than in- struments of any other make.
A. C. S«'itchboar€l Wattmeter, Model IG"
Model 1 Portable D. C. Voltmeters
are guaranteed to an accuracy of ^^ of 1% (in terms of full scale length). They are dead-beat. The knife-edge pointer travelling over a mirror, readings may be made within Ho of a division of any part of the hand-calibrated scale.
In external appearance they are very handsome. The metal case has an ex- ceedingly durable royal copper finish. The base is of selected mahogany, highly polished.
Model 1
Weston A. C. Switchboard Instruments are fully described in Catalog 16. Model 1 and the various other D. C. Portable In- struments are described in Bulletin 501.
No matter what your requirements may be, state them and we will forward appropriate Bulletins.
