Special to The New York Times
ORANGE, N.

Miss Howden, who for four years has been unable to walk, sat in a wheel chair with microphones directly in front of her. She spoke for about twenty minutes, relating interesting things she recalled about the great humorist, who was born just ninety years ago.
