DeForest. who was for many years president of the New Haven Gaslicht company there has passed away at a ripe old age a highly esteemed resident and mother greatly beloved. Her illness was brief, lasting but three days, and was due chiefly to the inroads of time, which had weakened the vital forces, Her age was nearly ninety years.
 Mrs. DeForest was a native of South port. this state. where and in New York her early life was spent, and until her marriage in 1S43 to MT De- Forest. Mrs. DeForest was a member of the United church, which she joined many years ago, and where for many years and until infirmities prevented she was "a regular and devoted attend ant. as was also her husband, the late Andrew w. DeForest, whose death oc- cured about seven years ago, and who was in every sense one of New Haven's best citizens.
 DecedSeu leaves three sons, Eulnunu L. of Springfield, Mass; Charles S., president and secretary of the DeForest Lumber company of this city, and Eu- gene, treasurer and vice president of the same company One sister, Mrs. Leyerich of New York city, died a few years ago; another died in infancy.

SKIN TORTURES AFFL|CT CHILDREN
Obstinate Case of Eczema Covered Little Girls Limbs with Running Sores Poison Oak Made Boys Hands and Arms a Mass of Tor turing Sores Sufferers Soon Re- Ieved and Completely Cured Grateful Mother Says
"CUTICURA REMEDIES A
 HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

Last year, after having my little girl treated by very prominent physi- clan for an obstinate case of eczema, l resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physicians prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuti- cura Remedies her feet and limbs were covered with running sores. In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence Of the trouble.
 In July of this year little boy in our family poisoned his hands and arms with poison oak, and in twenty-four hours his hands and arms were mass of torturing sores. We used only the Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands t. d arms with the Cuticura Soap, and amounting them with the Cuticura Oint- ment, and then gave him the Cuticura Resolvent. In about three weeks his hands and arms healed up. So we have lots of cause for feeling grateful for the Cuticura Remedies. We find that the Cuticura Remedies are valuable household standby, living as we do twelve miles from doctor. Mrs. Lizzie Vincent Thomas, Fairmount, Walden's Ridge, Tenn, Oct. 13, 1905.'

DISPOSITION OF BRIDGE. HARTFORD STRUCTURE State of Connecticut and Consolidated Road to Get
 Together.

Hartford, May 23-The state of Con- necticut and the New York, New Ha- cen and Hartford railroad company probably will get together soon rela- tive to the disposition to be made of the present single track draw. bridge over the Connecticut river between Lyme and Saybrook and if suitable bargain can be struck the bridge will be retained for public travel. There was a hearing on the recommendation of Governor Woodruff which was made in message to the senate early in the week on the bridge problem, this afternoon and it was explained in a letter from the war department that the old bridge would have to come down or a change In the location of the draw would necessarily have to be made. The new bridge of the New York, New Haven and Hartford road will be completed in about two months. The draw of the new bridge is located at the west end of the bridge while that of the old bridge is on the west side of that structure and in order to retain the present bridge the draw in the former would have to be chang ed so as to be directly opposite the draw in the new bridge. The bridges are about 27O feet apart and the tide is so strong that, going in either di- rection boat could not possible go through one draw, make turn at right angles and then make the other draw. This situation was explained to- day by Representative Hooker of Hart ford who appeared before the commit tee on roads, rivers and bridges as a master pilot, not member of the gen. eral assembly.
 MT Hooker said that it would cost the road s50,OOO to take down the old bridge and he thought that the road would allow it to remain provided the state bore the expense in making a shift in the draw He said there was no draw bridge between the mouth of the river and Middletown and that he thought it essential that the bridge be retained as a highway bridge,
 Highway Commissioner Macdonald also spoke on the subject, saying that he had hoped that the. bridge could re- main where it is as it otherwise would be an interruption to his 12O mile sys- tenn between Port Chester, N.5sY., and Westerly, R. l., which he has been planning for several years, He said that the proposition comes to the State opportunely and timely and hoped that the state would keep the proposition an open one. MT Macdonald favored the appointment of a commission to inyes- tigate and put the matter through, but 1t was explained that the committee would act as whole, visit the bridges and make an early report so that the question could be disposed of at the present session. In the. letter from the war department, it was explained that the bridge if retained probably would be a toll bridge,
 Commissioner Macdonald strongly urged that the question of tolls at, the bridge be included in the general sub- ject on that question now before the | legislature.

DIRECTORS ACT IN
 THE HICKMAN CASE Unreserved Confidence Ex- pressed in President
 Hegeman. EXPERT MEDICATION. Resolution Regarding the Charges of Forgery and
 Perjury.
EXPERT MEDICATION.

New York, May 23.-Unreserved con- fidence in John R. Hegeman, president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company, and confidence that he will be vindicated of the charges of for gerry and perjury made against him were expressed in a resolution adopted by the board of directors of the com pany to-day. The resolution declared:
 "The facts upon which the indict- ments against President Hegenan are based are that some years ago at the end of each of several years the presi- dent sold collateral loans and repur- chased them at the beginning of the succeeding year. In each case the evidence of the loan and the collateral herewith were delivered to the pur- chaser, who in each case, gave a check to the order of the company, which check was deposited to the credit of the company and paid in due course of business.
 MT. Hegeman testified before the Armstrong committee that these tram sections were entered into for the pur- pose of keeping away a horde of ap> plications for call loans from the Wall Street district. The practice was not concealed from the insurance depart ment; on the contrary that department on two separate occasions under two different administrations was informed of it and made no criticism of 1t.
 "The charge is that the annual state ments of the company were incorrect in that they reported cash Instead of coll lateral loans Yet it is not disputed that as a matter of fact the cash was in the company's treasury and the col lateral loans were not. Counsel ad- vised the company that the legal title to these loans was not in the company on the last day of the year when the report was made, but was in the par ties to whom they were sold.
 ''No profit out of these transactions was made by any individual; no loss to the company arose out of them. In fact every collateral loan was paid In full, with interest, when called and the company has never lost dollar through that form of investment.
 'In view of these facts, the board places upon record an expression of it's unreserved confidence in President Hegeman5 of it's recognition of the masterful work he has done in building up the company, and of it's confident expectation that he will be vindicated from these charges"

FAIR HAVEN NOTES.

Principal Gushing, of the high school, paid a visit to Strong school yesterday afternoon and gave an address before the pupils of the eighth grade. He explained the work of the first year in high school, where so many of the pu- pills will go next year; outlined the work and spoke of the different courses. He said that it was import ant that the pupils should start out right, and the early part of the high school work was very essential to learn thoroughly. If that was done, then all the after instruction would prove of greater worth. He spoke of the great value of high school instruction, and congratulated the pupils on the excel lence of the work done at Strong. Prin- cipal Cushing announced that one of the Strong graduates, Miss Ruth Tur- ner, who left the school two years ago and was now in the high school, had received the prize of S10 for excellence ill botany.
