with Professor Fournier and other

consumption was by kissing. Profes
sor William H. Brewer of the Scheffield

"If | was in the habit of kissing
should keep right on"

long held a professorship in the Yale
Medical school and who is secretary
of the State Board Of Health, made
this statement:
kissing has been practised from the
time of Adam and Eve. In some
countries it has been practised more
than in America and there Is no evil
dence that these nations have been
much afflicted with consumption"

Massachusetts, For Tariff Revision.

With only one voice raised in oppo-
sition, the Republicans of MassaChu-
setts in state convention declared for
revision of the tariff.
The declaration is thought to be the
first definite pronouncement of the
kind that has been made by Repub-
licau state convention since the Ding
ley bill was adopted by congress. A
campaign in the interest of tariff re.
vision was carried on in Iowa a few
ears ago and the revislonists made a
contest in state convention, but no
positive declaration in favor of tariff
changes was incorporated in the plat.
form.
This ticket was nominated For gov
ernor, Curtis Guild, Jr.; lieutenant
governor, Eben s. Draper; secretary of
state, William NJ. Olin; treasurer and
receiver general Arthur B. Chaplin;
auditor, Henry p. Turner; attorney
General Dana Malone.

Closing week every day of which
has produced sensation that has
stirred the country, the special legis-
lative committee investigating insur-
ance companies adjourned until Tues
day of this week. The sessions here
after will be held Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday. This change was made
because Friday is registration day in
the state and the members of the com.
mittee desired to be present in their
various districts.
It was a sensational development
when Mr.. Hughes demanded the pay
roll of the executive officers of the
Mutual Life company. This was
produced and showed the salaries OF
these officers since 1877 For the year
1904 President McCurdy received $780,

market value, was brought out in
the insurance investigation, and Pres
ident John A. Mccall Of the New
York Life testified that he in turn
borrowed $4,000 from the Metropoli-
tan at the same rate. This was in
| January, 1903, the loan was renewed
In January, 1904, and ran until March,
1905, when the rate of interest was ad-
vanced to per cent, at which rate 1t
| is still running.
Good Thing For McCurdy Family.

bers of the family of Richard A. Nc

Middletown, Oct. 10. - To all ap

the mystery of the triple tragedy al
the Olney farm last Friday. 1t is now
proposed to take blood hounds to the
rescue in the hope that 1t Is not YET

OF the assassin. The experiment will.
be made as soon as the hounds can
be obtained from the Napanoch Re

sons have visited the farm and
secured all the surrounding country II
is felt that the chances of success are
remote.
