The commissioner takes a common
ense view of unauthorized Insurance,
He does not believe that the companies
which cannot meet the requirements of
the laws of the State of Connecticut for
admission to do business should be per-
mitted by sanction of law to place risks
on property in this State. And he has
ordered every agent licensed to place
unauthorized insurance in this State,
on and after April /, 1896, to file an affl-
davit with the department in every case
when he seeks to place risk in an un-
authorized company; this affidavit to
include the name of the insured, the
amount Of risk, the location of the prop
erty and the company. This is entirely
safe and proper. The commissioner
further gives notice that he will submit
for the consideration of the next gen.
eral assembly the full facts with refer
ence to this class of risks, and ask
either the repeal of the present law or
the enactment of suitable legislation
which will clearly define the duties Of
the department with reference thereto,
The commissioner points out that our
whole system of insurance laws needs a
thorough revision. This is undoubted-
~ a fact, and there should be no delay
in making it. The insurance interests
of Connecticut are large and important
enough to demand the very best atten-
ton, and whatever new legislation is
needed for their development and pro-
lection and for the protection of the
people of this State against poor insur-
ance should be provided with as little
delay as possible.

Not many moons ago it was ANNOUNCE
ed with great flourish of trumpets
that consumption could be cured and
that DR.. Koch's tuberculin could cure
it. There was great rush for the
new remedy. Consumptives who want
ed to live and doctors who wanted to
cure them and get little fame and
money clamored for the tuberculin I'M
til there wasn't enough to go around.
Miraculous cures were reported and for
awhile it looked as if the new remedy
was all that was claimed for it. But
little has been heard about it lately
and consumptives continue to die. And
we read that at meeting Of the Bal
neologic society held the other day in
Berlin DR.. Koch's tuberculin was fierce
ly denounced by many eminent profess
sors in attendance. Professor Liebe-
reich declared that tuberculin had been
discredited by all physicians, even vet
Urinary practitioners, as it's use was
directly dangerous, DR.. Hausemann
said that a greater percentage of lung
diseases had been cured by allowing
nature to help itself than by the treat
ment of experts.
To this complexion has the great
tuberculin cure come. 1t is no longer
looked upon as the saver of the human
race. But we are not left without con-
sumption cures Dr. Cyrus Edson's
"Aseptolin' win surely do what DIR.
Koch's tuberculin was going to do but
didn't. Until it is discovered that
people will continue to die from con-
sumption in spite of "Aseptolin" let us
hope that they will not. The human
race needs all the hope it can find ex-
cuse for.

This same degree of lepiency exists in
the fashioning of Jacket bodices, for
though box front, back and side bod
ices are voted stunning, II woman
with a pretty figure done one, the OBJ
server only thinks how foolish she is to
hide it: and if she hasn't good lines,
one only thinks that she has not con-
cealed the fact. So, though you may
let the front be as box" as you like, let
the back, at least, seem to fit. A modi-
fcation of the box back has wide belt
with a buckle. This belt confines the
box to the waist in the back, and it
passes through Sits at the sides and
under the box in front. More than this
can be accomplished with belts, some of
which are complicated affairs. One ac-
cessory of the sort meant is of velvet or
silk, folded or plain as preferred. sand
as deep as material and taste dictate
The belt in front extends into panel
piece that reaches up over the front of
the bodice attaching itself to the stock
This piece may be as wide or as narrow
as you like. 1t may lie fiat and begin
at the edge of the belt almost under the
arms, narrowing to a little rosette un-
der the chin, or it may constitute a
pouch front, its folds blending into
those of the belt, FLORETTE.

BUSINESS Us. Politics.

The Boston Merchants association
has resolved that the continuance of
the agitation for free coinage of silver
stands in the way of a revival of con-
hdence and business prosperity, and re-
suits in an enormous cost to the people.
The interest paid on government bonds
is only small part of the cost. All
persons engaged in farming, manufac-
ture or trade, whether as producers or
wage earners, are vitality interested in
securing the permanence of the gold
standard of value upon which the bus
mess OF this country is transacted. 1t
is of supreme Importance that this
question be Immediately and finally re-
moved from the sphere of politics And
this being SO the association demands
from each of the great political parties
sincere declaration by it's convention
in favor of maintaining the gold stand
ard so unequiyocal that it cannot be in
terpreted in two ways. It urges all
citizens to unite in a vigorous effort to
bring about the selection of delegates
to the political conventions of both par
ties who will pledge themselves to adj
vocate clear and distinct platform ut
terances in favor of SO providing for the
maintenance of the gold standard that
its safety shall be free from any shad-
ow of doubt, and who will not tolerate
doubtful phrases or expressions for the
sake of securing votes from the advo-
Gates OF the free coinage of silver.
That's business, and business Of the
right kind. The people should move
promptly and vigorously in this matter.
The indications are that if they don't
the politicians will make tinid and
hypocriticaI mess of it. And, sad to
say, the Republican politicians don't
seem to be much holder or less hypo-
critical than the Democratic politicians.

MoRH m0DE,rr AND TRUTH.


The Register again calls attention to
''the phenomenal success of the Journal
and Courier in laying the dust in the
streets of New Haven" and again we
modestly decline to accept the hand
some and sincere compliment it pays
us. 1t is true that since the Journal
and Courier began to beg for relief from
the dust Nature has done some surpris-
ing and timely things, including the re-
cent snow storm, which makes it sure
that there win be no dust in the streets
OF New Haven for several days to come,
But we cannot honestly claim that our
pull has had anything to do with the
benetcent work. And we know that
the time win soon come when the heav-
ems will be as brassy above us as the
Register Is below us. In those days
there will be so much dust that the
Register cannot appropriately call at
tention to our success in loosening the
pucker strings of the rain-bags and the
snow-bags Then the Board of Public
Works will be the only source from
which reliable help can come. If in
| those days the Register is as timely and
successful in its appeals to the Board
as 1t generously but enormously says

will merit. A pull with the Board is
what is really needed, and we hope the
Register will show that it has it when
| the dust begins to fly again.

and after January 1, 1897, no person
who is not citizen of the United
States shall be employed as an engi-
neer or assistant engineer on any YES

cessity for this act is that there is a
difference of opinion among officials as

required that all the officers of United
States merchant vessels should be citi-
zens of this country. This act had
been construed to include engineers I'M

General Gordon.

The lectures announced under the auspices of the New Haven Colony Historical society are attracting con- siderable attention through the promi- hence of the speakers secured. The first is General John B. Gordon, who is now upon his second term as United States senator from Georgia. General Gordon is a antique figure in national life. His bravery in the civil war, as a. general in the southern cause, is a mat ter of history. That he followed the fortunes of his native state and fought against the north is an error that has surely been atoned by his glorious pa triotism to the Union since the close of the war He has served a worthy ca reer as governor of his native state and his record in congress has been of un- yielding loyalty to his country. His most noted utterance is probably that made on the floor of the senate at the time of the Chi ago labor troubles. when the Pullman riots were being discussed. He said, If the Union will call for troops will see that more men cross Mason and Dixon's line to fight in de- fence of the Union than crossed it in the civil war;

POTTS WONDERLAND THEATER.

After one of the most successful weeks in the history of Poli's Wonder land theater, both from an artistic and financial point of view, another bid for success is made this week, when most elaborate bill of attractions has been provided. The bill is headed by MT. Charles Wayne, who was for five years with Lillian Russell as the principal creator of the comedy roles in her op- eras. MT. Wayne only recently came into the vaudeville ranks, finding in continuous variety a greater field for his abilities as a comedian and much more remuneration for his work. He has made a signal success in his new field, having attracted quickly the mo- tice of the most important managers, and it is said that he has created one of the funniest entertainments ever seen upon the vaudeville stage. To sup port MT. Wayne seven other great nov city features have been secured, four of them being strong enough to be made the special feature of any vaudeville performance. These are MT. Stanton and Miss Bedding. the Misses Cooke and Clinton, the Lamont family, the Golden Trio, MT. and Mrs Bates. the La Wins, and MT. Lowrey and Miss Francis.
