string of cows and young heifers

TOO MUCH KISSING IN GAME.
Oklahoma Teacher Asks School Board
to Order Playing Of "Postoffiee"
Stopped.

Lawton, Okla.-Kissing has become
so obnoxious to young woman teach.
er in a district near this city that she
has called an extra session Of the
board Of education to provide a rule
that will prevent It on the school
ground and about the premises OF the
school house. In compliance with her
request a special session convened to
make the necessary order.
The children of this school have
been playing an outdoor game that
they call ''postoffice." The girls con-
gregate in one place and the boys in
another SO that each aggregation is
not in sight of the other. Then a
herald from the camp OF the girls
comes out upon the common ground
and calls the name of one OF the
youngsters, who stands in silent con-
he is called TO get his mail"
The boy follows the girl into the
precincts Of the quarters of the girls
and is instantly grabbed by two or
three of their number, who imprint
kiss after kiss upon his lips. He is
sworn not to tell his fellows what has
happened until all the boys have tast-
ed of the sweetness Of the lips OF the
girls and then the boys establish a
postoffice and invite the girls TO call
for mail"
OF course the secret is out after
they have gone around, but the desire
was created so that the game did not
end with the first playing. Pretty
soon kissing became public and was
called to the fair teachers attention.
She then began making strenuous eff.
forts to have 1t stopped, but the mania
had become so rooted and enticing
that the pupils were disobedient TO
her orders. Thus the board of educa.
ton was called upon to interfere.

THE NEW LIFE
INSURANCE LAWS
THE NEW LAWS BECOME EFFECT.
I'VE WITH THE NEW YEAR AND
CONTAIN MANY DEMANDS.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
New York, Dec. 31.-Tne year just
closing has been anything but a rosy
one for the life insurance agent. But
this, the final day, is the saddest OF
them all. II marks the end of the
high commission era. Tomorrow many
of the most important of the life in
surance reforms enacted by the legis-
lature following the report of the
Armstrong investigating committee
will become operative.
The most important of the new
laws, at least from the agents point
Of view, is that limiting the amount Of
money a company may spend to ac-
quire new business. This law will
affect the various companies different
ly, but its effect on the agents will be
pretty much the same all along the
line. Averaged, it will amount to a
shrinkage of between one-fifth and
one-fourth of the agents commissions.
In other words, where an agent has
been getting so per cent for bringing
in a new policy, he will get under the
new law go. or 65 per cent His in
terest in the subsequent or renewal
of all premiums is also curtailed. In
some of the smaller companies the
agents have been getting a commits
sion on the premiums throughout the
lie of a policy. On endowment pol
icies he is limited to per cent of
the renewal premiums for nine years.
On all other policies he is limited to
Z ~ per cent for nine years.
All the companies must file with the
Superintendent of Insurance detailed
reports of their condition today. This
is the first practical test of the pub
licity section of the new law. The
companies must report the dividends
declared and the sums held applicable
to deferred dividend policies. Lists of
securities purchased and sold during
the year with the price fluctuations
must be furnished. and the profits or
losses of each transaction. The COM
mission paid on these trades also
must be reported All money expend- |
ed for legislative purposes must be &C.
counted for in detail. The name and |
of every officer or en-
ploye drawing a salary of $4,000 a year
or more must be furnished. In addi-
ton the reports must includef details.
Of all real estate operations, ~
cOfTMIss.ois5 anu 1ss...ss. !;
All collateral loans must be described, |
and every death claim resisted or
compromised. with the reasons for
each case. must be given. Beginning
tomorrow every policy issued must
contain the complete contract between
the insured and the company.

PURE FOOD LAW

THE GOVERNMENT WILL INSIST
ON A STRICT ENFORCEMENT OF
THE NEW LAW.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, Dec. 31.-No more are
he to have the red circus lemonade or
.ss4h+e-clepEicG + the seductive
cocktail. Green candy is to become a
thing Of the past and sawdust will be
missing from the breakfast foods.
Unto the pure all things are pure.
but unto them that are defiled, is moth.
ing pure"
Beginning tomorrow all things in
the food and drink line are to be pure.
providing the new pure food law
which is to go into effect on that day
accomplishes the ends sought by those
who framed it. Ignorance will not be
tolerated as an excuse for violating
the new law. II there is any manu-
facturer or dealer throughout the
length and breadth of the land who is
not familiar with its provisions It is
not the fault of the government. For
weeks the Agricultural Department
has been busy mailing the new regula-
tons to those interested in the new
law.
The main provisions of the law
have been discussed so much since
the measure was enacted last spring
as to have become generally familiar
to the public. The regulations as to
adulteration affect all drugs and med
icines as well as food articles.
Factories will be required to be
open at all times for inspection. La
bells must not in any way misrepre-
sent the products to which they are
attached. Artificial coloring matter in
food and drink will be largely done
away with.
The Government is preparing for
the strictest enforcement of the law.
Federal inspectors will be kept busy
buying samples in the open market to
be tested and analysed. The only way
the retail dealer can hope to escape
the penalty of the law is to be able to
show that the manufacturer or whole
sale merchant gave him a guaranty
that the articles conformed with the
regulations. Then it will be up to the |
manufacturer or wholesale merchant
to explain.

ants to the title whose superiority has
not had doubts cast upon it.
McAuliffe showed his first cham
pionship form when he knocked out
Parson Billy Frazier in twenty-one
rounds at Boston, October %, 1886, in
a contest advertised as for the light
weight championship. The stake was
5000 side, for this was before the
days of big purses. McAuliffe won the
championship of Canada also, and
clinched his claim to the title when
he knocked out Harry Gilmore at
Lawrence, Mass, in twenty-eight
rounds, January IA, 1887
Then came the famous international
lightweight championship contest be
tween McAuliffe and Jim Carney at
Revere, Mass, November 16. 1887. The
fight went seventy-four rounds and
was declared a draw. The memorable
sixty-four-round draw with Billy Myer
at North Judson, ILL.,, February 10
1889, was McAuliffe's next important
championship contest.
In 1890 McAuliffe went to San Fran.

Tonopah, New, Dec. 31.-Trained
the hour and ready for their battle,
which will decide the lightweight
championship of the world, Joe Cans
and kid" Herman await the call to
the arena of the Casino Athletic club
tomorrow afternoon. This mining
town is intensely excited over the big
fight Sporting men are arriving in
large numbers from San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, and even
as far distant as Chicago, and the
fight is the sole topic of conversation
in the streets and all public places.
While both fighters have about an
different thing when it comes to bet
ting money The odds are decidedly
in favor of Cans. But there are many
men who believe the Chicago boy has
a first rate chance to win the battle,
and those that fancy the chances of
the championship are not having much
trouble in placing their money. The
betting is heavy among the money
spending miners who are here from all
over the Nevada field, and an immense
sum is bound to change hands on the
result of the battle.
From all appearances neither fighter
will have any advantage when it comes
to condition. Cans has never been in
clined to hold Herman cheaply, and
he has prepared as faithfully for this
fight as he did for his encounter with
Battling" Nelson. He appears to be
in the best possible condition, and the
only question is whether he will be
able to stand a long and hard fight
at the 133-pound mark. Herman, I'M
der the careful supervision of Manager
Nate Lewis and Trainer Adam Ryan,
has been putting in the time to the
best advantage since his arrival here
and at his camp today the report was
given out that he is in the finest fet-
tie. Both men have completed their
heavy work of preparation and from
now until the gong sounds they will
exercise only enough to keep in condi-
ton and at the proper weight. Her
man expresses the greatest confidence
in his ability to defeat the champion.
The Casino clubs arrangements for
the fight are of the most perfect char
acter. The new arena has cost the |
club over $4,000. 1t covers a site lac |
feet square and has seating accommo-
dations for $500. This means that If |
the house is filled, and the indications
are that it will be, the gate receipts
will total s92,5OO. The ring platform
is located in the center of the arena
and is "a feet square. The platform is
elevated three and half feet above
the floor level, and is surrounded by
a double row of press seats. Three
rows of boxes run back from the four
sides of the ring, and each box has
a seating capacity of twelve persons.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2I.-President Roose-
welt and his advisers have been following
the campaign in New York with the keenest
interest. They are now convinced, il is
understood, that Charles +. Hughes will
be elected Governor.
we are getting better reports" said
one high officer Of the Administration.
Things are looking up now and we feel
satisfied"
The officer quoted would NOT go into par
ticulars. He would not say from whSRl
the better reports" had beer received
or upon what they were based. He merely
said the reports from New York were better
and that the Administration was satisfied
that Hughes would defeat Hearst. The
prominence Of this man and his record for
accurate forecasting make his views
worthy Of note.
That the election Of Mr.. Hughes will be
followed by a boom for him for the Presi-
dency is the belief among political observers
in Washington. One politician said to-day:
while l am somewhat puzzled over the
reports that come from New York, l look
to see Mr.. Hughes top Hearst by $50 600
votes. | cannot believe that Hearst will
make any Roadway up the State. In the
event Of Mr.. Hughes's election, which l
regard az certain, the political situation,
in 10 far az IL has a bearing on the national
campaign Of 1908, will be materially
changed. Hughes would have to be
reckoned with. His work as insurance
inquisitor il known and known favorably
by the people Of this country. That Mr..
Hughes probed the insurance companies
without fear or favor Mr.. Hearst himself
has testif ed in the strongest terms Of
commendation."

OTTAWA, Oct. 2I.-It is stated on good
authority that the tariff revision which is
expected at the session OF Parliament
which opens next month will take the form
OF increased duties against the United
States. Ministers are of the opinion that
this would be a good stroke of policy in
view of present conditions. 1t il asserted
hat a high maximum tariff will be applied
in this direction and that little will be al
lowed to come into Canada except raw
material.
II is expected this move will force Ameri-
cans BOW casting longing eyes on Canadian
resources to build their factories on this
side Of the line. meaning the development
of Canadian industries and more work for
Canadians. 1t is pointed out that nearly
81 goo 600 worth Of shoes is coming into an
ada annually from American manufacturers
in the States. even with the present duty on
shoes. Lately many American firms have
started Canadian branches, and the inten-
ton is to force more to do so or let profitable
trade 90 by.
