place of it would tend to broaden the views of most graduates.
 But to lessen the discipline is like un- dermining the foundation of a house. This is partly due to the overstudy of astronomy on the part of some of the officials of the academy, who, in their careful search for particular star, have overlooked the object for which the military academy was established. l don't think the establishment of a club for first classmen, and the attempt to make second lieutenants of them be- fore they graduate, will add to the dis cipline or prove much of a success. Mir. Schaff has done a good thing in writ ing his articles and giving his impress sions of Old west Point, and the names of prominent graduates, many of whom were personally known to some of us and to all by reputation. I think Mr Schaff like myself and others who wish to be progressive, regrets the icon oclastic spirit that seems to prevail al our alma mater at present.

The Doctor and inc Cane.

A gold headed cane used to be con- sidered necessary part of the physi- clans outfit, as indispensable to the profession as the medicine bag or the general air of wisdom, says Youth's Companion. In the rooms of the Lon don College of Physicians, there is pre- served a gold topped staff, which is famous as having been carried by a succession of prominent doctors whose lives extended over a period of nearly a century and a half Dr. William MacMichael has published an account of it in a quaint little book in which the story of the various owners and their characteristics is told.
 The cane originally belonged to the great Dr. Radcliffe of the seventeenth century The doctor, himself rather quick as to temper, was once treated to biting bit of repartee. Radcliffe's garden adjoined the grounds of Sir Godfrey Kneller, the Kings chief painter. A door in the wall made easy communication between his ma jestys doctor and the artist Some of the doctors workmen, however, Inter- ed up the artists beautiful flower beds and aroused his anger. He sent word that if the thing continued he would have the door bricked up.
 Sir Godfrey can do what he pleases with that door so long as he doesn'r paint itp' retorted Dr. Radcliffe.
 Did my good friend say that?" re. marked Sir Godfrey, when the slap al his profession was refeated to aim Well, go tell him that I'll take any thing from him but physic.'
 The cane passed in succession iron Dr. Radcliff's hands to those of Mead Askew Pitcairn and Baille, all famous in their day and generation. Of Baillit the following incident is told
 He was gentle and patient physi ciar by nature, but his iilmense prac tice and crowded hours sometime made him nasty with the importunate
 At one time, after listening to a lon, story of her ailments from lady wh, was so little ill that she intended to gt to the opera that night, the doctor lief the room with sigh of relief. He ha, just got down stairs when he was call ed back.

TO BE REFUNDED.
Life Insurance Taxes-NcwYork States
 Action.


 Action.
 Governor Hughes of New York has signed the bill which provides that the comptroller shall determine and pay to Connecticut life insurance companies the franchise tax enormously paid in 1902 1903 and 1904, The legislation is of reciprocal character, as this session of the general assembly passed bill providing that New York state life companies should receive from Connec- ticut taxes paid by them under protest to this state to the amount of about $75, GOO.
 New York's method of payment will be to credit the Connecticut companies their due under the reimbursement act, on account of current taxes There Is due Hartford companies approximately Travellers Insurance company $S,00O; Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance com pany, $7,00O; Connecticut General Life Insurance company, $9,000; Aetna Life Insurance company, $5,000; Hartford Life Insurance company, 5000. Total about $2S.OOo.
 There is nothing due the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance company from the New York refund bill. as at the 1 time the company paid the taxes it dit sl under protest and the amount paid in excess of what was due was credited to the company's tax account in the state of New York two years ago.

IS FAR-REACHING.
The New York State Inheritance Tax Decision in Cooley Case, Hartford.

Decision in Cooley Case, Hartford.
 An important decision has been rem dered by the New York court of appeals in connection with suit arising from the settlement of the estate of Hon. Francis B. Cooley. late of Hartford, which is of interest throughout New England, as it illustrates the far-reach- ing scope of the inheritance tax laws of the state of New York.
 The state of New York has contend ed for some time that it has right of transfer tax from the estates of non- resident decedents who held stock of the Boston and Albany or Fitchburg railroads the ratio being in proportion to the amount Of property of these roads which lies within the state of New York. The contention in the Cooley estate was that the companies mentioned were primarily Massachu- setts corporations, and, therefore, no transfer tax should be collected by the state of New York. The reJolnder Was that the companies were also incorpor- ated in the state of New York, and that the Fitchburg road is not only incor- porated in the states of Massachusetts and New York, but also in Vermont and New Hampshire.
 The Cooley case finally went to the New York court of appeals and de- cision has been rendered and the sur rogateScourt of New York has entered an order under it's decision. The pro portion of the Boston and Albany com pany which is subject to the transfer tax of New York is fixed at 1929 per cent. and that of the Fitchburg road al S5.66, the basis of such proportions be; ing the percentage of the mileage oi the main lines of these roads withlr the state of New York. as compared with the total mileage of the roaC wherever located.

his home attractive, improve his land.
and who is always looking after ev-
erything in general.
Did you ever stop and think that by

| amounts to over a little over six
