EXTRACTING A TOOTH
CAUSED HER DEATH

Fort Collins, Colo, June 3.-Miss
ElVa Kaufman, secretary of the
North Poudre Irrigation compan.,
died saturday evening of heart fall
ure. She had been suffering for some
time from a wisdom tooth coming
through her cheek and causing it to
become badly swollen. Monday the
tooth was removed, cocaine being
used. Thursday she went to the doc
tors office, collapsed and was taken
home, where she grew steadily worse
until the end. 1t is thought heart
failure might have resulted from
something which she took to alleviate
the pain, from which she suffered in
tensely a few days before her death.

here uneasy.

PRESENT LAWS INJURIOUS

Louisville, December 1S-A meeting Of the National Association of State Insur- ance Commissioners, having for it's object the drafting of state uniform laws gov erning the taxation of insurance eom- panies, was begun here today. Nearly all the state commissioners who are members of the body and number of represen- tatives of the insurance companies were
 As the result of a controversy which order by Commissioner Henry B. Prewitt of Kentucky. In his opening address, Mir. Prewitt laid stress upon the main object of the meeting which was to arrive at an equitable valuation for taxation pur- poses of the securities held by the various companies.
 The association at a previous meeting had decided that for the present year the securities should be assessed on their val uation in December, 1906 and also that the 1906 valuation should govern in de- termining whether the companies were giving their depositors the security re- quired by the laws of the various states. It had been recognized that to value se- curities held by the company at their present market price would force the total below the legal requirements and neces- sitate further accumulation of reserves or retirement from business by many com panies, a course as unfair as disastrous because the recent market price of many securities is admittedly fictitious.
 A desire to reopen the matter and cover new questions raised led to the calling of the present meeting.
 Today's proceedings consisted of the organization of the assembly by install ing President R. F. Folk, commissioner for Tennessee, in the chair, the selection of Mailer II. Brankerhoff as secretary. and appointment of a committee to recom- mend uniform rules on legislation gov erning the valuation and taxation of the securities.
 The committee at once began it's delib- erations, representatives of insurance companies being invited to present their views before it.
 The remainder of the general session this afternoon was taken up with the reading of papers by commissioners and insurance men on the valuation of securi- ties. the principal address being by Presi- dent Folk. who recommended that sys- tenn of averaging by using both the mar ket quotat and book values be put in effect. This view seemed generally to be favored by those who followed him, al though some of the insurance men con tended that the quotations covering a con- siderable period of time should be con- sdered. Adjournment was then taken un- til tomorrow.
