While in Ossining he met with an accident, in which he sug^ tained a broken leg. Complications set In during his injury and it wan necessary to amputate the limb. Five years ago he organized in New York City the Cripples’ Welfare Society, which he established at 347 Fifth avenue. He induced at that time Charles N. Douglas, a crippled author, to become president of the organiza tion. Douglas was interested in the work and devoted all his energy and ardor toward® its uplift to a success ful basis. Recently the author sus pected for the first time that ail the money collected for the benefit of cripples was not reaching its proper destination and he withdrew. Ryder had employed In the course of his business a number of collectors to gather funds for deformed children. He also had had about 700 night coD lection boxes in various restaurants, cigar stores and public places through out the j^etropolis. Each box, cov ered by the picture of two crippled children, contained a batch of circu lars which made pathetic and IDuoh- ing appeals for funds to aid the help less children.

D U O L K WHALERS’OLD SITH Y W Last Reminder of Early Industry Here on the Water Front Being Re moved, WE ONCE HAD TWO COMPANIES ■The last traces of the whaling in dustry In Poughkeepsie are now dm- learing.

Of the foot of Mill street, near the large gas tank of the 'Central Hud-son Gas and Electric Company, is now be ing torn down and with Its disap pearance the whaling days in Pough keepsie will be but a memory in the minds of- only the oldest inhabitants. Many of the presenj residents of Poughkeepsie are unaware of the fact that at one time 'Poughkeepsie was a strong competitor of New Bedford anfj other sea port towns in the whalin.g Industry. However, such is the f.act. The Industry was also carried on with more or less success in both Nev.’- burgh and Kingston. At one time Poughkeepsie boasted of two large and successful whaling companies. These were known as the Poughkeepsie Whaling 'Company and the Dutchess Whaling Company. Rg pany was founded on April 20, 1833 Its founders Avere James Hooker, Matthew Vassar, Gilbert Brewster Thomas L. Davies, Paraclete Pother, ■Nathan ConkUn, Alexander J. CofUn and Richard Pudney, This coropaiiy started in businers ■between the foot of Mam street aiui the site of the old Vassar Brewery, which had not at that time been erected. Its first agent was Frederich Barnard, .father ow the late Justice Joseph Barnard and grandf-ither o Frederick Barnard, a local attorney. Later this company removed its ac tivities to the “Whale Dock\ at the foot of D u tch e s s avenue, th e n used by the D u tch e s s W h a ling 'Company, the larger and more successful organiza tion. The Dutchess lU ialing Company was founded on April 30, 1S33. foutidera %vero Nathaniel Talmadge, Jacob Van Benthuysen, WaRer 'Cun ningham, Aaron Innis, John Adrianos, Peter P.

The property occupied by this com pany extended from the foot of MU street on the south, the land now oc cupied by the power station of the Central Hudson Gas and Eleetrir Company, to be the land now oc cupied ty The yards of the Dutton Lumber Company on the north. The old Poughkeepsie Glass Works form erly occupied the site of the majority of the old’ buildings of the Dutehes.s Whaling Company which included a shop for the manufacture of candles, a cooperage, a boar-building shop, c-'tc. The old brick building formerly used as a blacksmith shop'by the company, and which for many years has been used as a dwelling, stood on the hill to the south of the dlher structures. An old neAvspaper account says that in 1837 the Dutchess Whaling 'Com pany had five ships at sea. The increasing scarcity Of Avhales and a tightness in the money market caused the. Poughkeepsie Whaling Company to suspend business in September ^838. Alexander Forbus was nam e d as receiv e r at that tim e . The remainder of the fleet of the company was purchased by the Dutchess Whaling Company which r e mained in business until after 181-i. With the final suspension of business by the Dutchess Whaling Company the whaling industry along the Hud son iTiver became extinct. be complimented upon their grace fulness, Miss Dorothy Adriance as the Youngest Dryad tvas dainty and winsome in the title role and had excellent support In the acting of Chester Spaulding as “Will’ the iPiper.” MiSB Ruth Delapenha was the First Dryad, Miss Harryette Reynolds, Bess the 'Maygueen, E l liot Smith, Dick, one of the peasants and Miss Maud Spaulding, the graceful leading butterfly.
