He was Yale graduate, class of 'SS, and is said to broken down with nervous prostration while studying there. When he came here recently he said he wanted a rest. He had spent summers here before. He has no near relatives. Coroner Higgins Is investigat- ing. It is believed that Turney shot himself.

A CAMPAIGN OF
 ACQUAINTANCE
4 NEW DEPARTURE IN INDUS
 TRIAL CAMPAIGNING.

National Biscuit Company Sends Special
 Representatives to New Haven On
 Most Important Mission.
 The New Haven house shas been in- vaded. For the time being it is the headcuarters of the special reception committee of the National Biscuit con- pany, who are now in the city. Already evidences of their coming are apparent and there is more to follow. The pur- pose of their visit will be accomplished saturday afternoon, when a. reception will be given in Harmonic hall, to
 which all the ladies of New Haven and
 vicinity are invited.
 The object of the entire undertaking Is to enable the public to satisfactorily answer the now celebrated question,
 "Do you know Uneeda Biscuit?'' and incidentally acquaint them with many other delicious products of the bakers
 art, as manufactured by the National Biscuit company.
 The popularity of uneeda Biscuit has been earned within the last five years, and is an example of good business
 Judgment. Six years ago the National Biscuit company came to the conclusion that the time had arrived when the American public was ready for some thing better than the common soda crackers put on the market in barrels and boxes, delivered to the consumer in a paper bag, more or less damaged and deflled, without a sponsor and without g. name. The idea was, first, 6 cracker as near culinary perfection
 as it was possible to manufacture.
 Then to protect this perfection by in-
 closing 1t in a pacakage which should exclude all air, dust and moisture, and finally to guarantee the whole to the consumer by the trade mark of the National Biscuit company on each end
 of the package. Of the appreciation of the consumer the sale of more than thrSe hundred million packages of Uneeda Biscuit bears the best witness. The same methods that have proved so successful with uneeda Biscuit have also been extended by the National Bis cult company to many other lines of
 biscuit, crackers and waters, such as
 butter thin biscuit, graham crackers, oysterettes, social tea biscuit, Zu zu ginger snaps and others. No matter
 what is wanted, whether a cracker for
 the soup, or the most delicious wafer for desssrt. it can be purchased any time, anywhere, with the absolute sur ety of always getting it fresh and good
 Nabisco sugar wafers and Festino al- nonds are two of the delicacies that will be served with the refreshments at
 the reception. They, are among the most delicious of the products of the
 National Biscuit company, and are es-
 ptcially appropriate as dessert confec- tioI1s.
 Every lady in New Haven Is cordial ly invited and should be present at the
 reception which will be held at Har- 111onie hall tomorrow after noon, from
 two until o'clock. Appropriate re- treatments will be served under the 1 supervision of chef who accompanies
 the reception committee. The musical features of the entertainment will be 1 ably rendered by Nicholl's orchestra, and hearty welcome extended to ev- cry guest.

HOW ISLANDS GET FORESTS.

When travelling among the islands of the Pacific or Atlantic one often won ders how 1t Is that lands so far away from great continents have become cov- cred with forests, but" Darwin and other naturaiists have solved the diffi- culty for us.
 Thus we learn from Darwin that he took from the foot of g. woodcock a cake of dry earth in which was seed of the toadrush. He planted the seed and 1t gerrninated and lowered.
 Professor Newton sent him the leg of
 a partridge which had been wounded and unable to fly. Attached to it was a clod of earth weighing six and one- half ounces. He broke up the clod and placed in under the bell glass. No few CT than eighty-two plants sprang from it. It is the more intesting to know that the clod of earth containing this treasury was kept three years before planting.-House Beautiful.

TO ENFORCE FIRE ESCAPE LAW
Building Superintendent Warns Own
ers of Apartment Buildings That
Inspectors Will Be Sent Out

During the last three days of this
week there will probably be a wild
scramble among the owners of apart
ment houses and similar buildings to
put up fire escapes, for Building Sup
erintendent Backus has issued notices
that on Monday his inspectors will
go through the city and make a list
of all buildings which do not comply
with the fire escape ordinance. When
this is completed prosecutions against
the violators of the ordinance will
begin.
Many of the apartment houses which
have been recently erected have en-
tirely disregarded the laws governing
fire escapes on buildings Of this class,
say inspectors, and in cases where
any have been put on at all they are
generally insufficient in number.

Old Men In Street Department Say the
Poorhouse Awaits Them If Dis
chareed-No recommendation Is
Made That Old Men Be Dismissed

The recommendation of the Municipal
league to the civil service commission
that that body fix an age limit at which
laborers may be employed by the city
and citing the case of the street super
intendent's department, where a large
number of employees are over so and
some over 70 years old, caused conster-
nation in the ranks of the city laborers
yesterday morning.
What are we old men going to do If
they take our jobs away from us?"
asked one gray haired patriarch whose
form was bent under the weight of his
II years and his life of hard labor. "Im
an old man and no one will give me
work. I've an old wife at home and
all we get to eat comes from my hard
earned wages ON the streets. If they
take my job away from me there's moth
ing but the poorhouse left for me and
the old woman"
Tears filled the old mans eyes as he
wearily threw pick and shovel across
his shoulder and trudged to his daily
toll.
The intention of the Municipal league,
it was explained yesterday, is not to
deprive those who are already employed
by the city Of their work but to provide
a rule that no one who has reached a
certain age limit may hereafter be en-
ployed by the city. The fixing of the
age limit was left to the discretion Of
the civil service commission.
Street Superintendent Hanley stated
yesterday that it was a fact that a
large proportion of his employees are old
men. About one-third of the entire
force are over 60 years and thirteen are
more than 10. Two are n.

BOARD or TRADE is
STILL IN A TANGLE
CONSOLIDATION HAS NOT YET
BEEN CoNsUMMATED
Victor H. TuttIe Claims Affairs Are
All Satisfactorily Adjusted and
That Combined Organizations Are
on Smooth Working Basis

The board of trade tangle still re-
fuses to be Strengthened out. H. J..
Woollacott, president of the Los An
geles board of trade, said last night:
mo consolidation has occurred as
yet, but the earnest wish of every
member of all three organizations is,
I am sure, to have the consolidation
occur at the earliest possible moment
However, transaction of such magni-
tude cannot be conSummated in a
day, or for that matter, week. 1t
takes time for these affairs to be ar
ranged. have no doubt when things
are finally adjusted that all the mem
bers of the three boards will work to-
gether for the good of the new con-
solidated board
ut is to be regretted that any cause
for dissension should have arisen, but
l fully believe that the next week will
see the whole thing Strengthened out
and the entire membership working for
the best good of the whole"
Victor H. Tuttle, president of the
Wholesalers board of trade, was also
optimistic, but his statements did not
altogether bear out those of Mr.. Wool
lacott. He said:
"This talk of the consolidation of the
three boards not being accomplished
Is all moonshine. 1t may be that there
are some disgruntled members of one
of the boards but the majority of the
members are ready to drop their per-
sonal grievances and work together
for the good of all concerned. AS far
ao the consolidation is concerned, that
Is finished, any statements that have
been made to the contrary notwith-
standing. The board has its officers
elected and an equal number were
chosen from each organization. They
have been doing business for a week
in their offices in the Billiard block.
Over seventy of the largest business
houses in Los Angeles have become
affiliated with the new board, and busi-
ness Is rushing"
1t Is an open secret that some of
the members of the Los Angeles board
Of trade are not satisfied with the
terms of consolidation. Their stand is
that as long as the Los Angeles board
Ia the older and stronger organization,
its representatives should have the bal
ance of power in the new board. This
position is not upheld by the members
of the other boards, who want perfect
equality.
A meeting of the Los Angeles board
will be held this morning and It is
possible that terms may be agreed upon
at that meeting.
