MILK TRAFFIC IN BOSTON.

Concentration of the Business Con-
stant1y Increases-More shops.
This city receives 36S,S49 quarts of
milk daily, but not all Of it is being
used here, says the Boston Transcript.
The Capitalization of the milk traf-
&c Is constantly increasing. This Is
we'll illustrated by the rapidly lessen
ing number Of milkmen. At this time
there are only $40 licensed dealers, a
loss Of twenty-eight over the preced-
ing year. This naturally means more
business for the remaining milkmen.
The number of shops selling milk shows
an Increase of 1T over 1905; 3,746
shops are now engaged in the sale Of
milk In this city.
About 123, $50 quarts are subjected to
commercial pasteurization daily, which
means the heating Of the milk to be.
tween $50 and ITO degrees Fahrenheit.
The milk inspector does not approve
I this method unless it Is regulated by
labelling the product.
During the summer months one firm
claims to supply the customers with
milk twelve hours old and another con-
Germ delivers milk to a portion of its
patrons throughout the summer months
of the same age, while the balance of
Its customers receive their milk when
1t is twenty-five hours old. Another
firm in winter serves one-half of Its
family trade with milk twelve hours
old, while the remaining retail custom
ers are given milk twenty-four hours
old. The greater portion Of the milk
delivered by contracting firms Is from
twenty-four to thlrty-six hours old; a
portion of the milk supply Of one large
firm is forty-eight hours old. Another
! large concern supplies milk to 10 per
cent Of its stores and restaurants which
is from forty-eight to sixty hours old

Evening Hymn.
Glory to Thee, my God, this night,
For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, oh, keep me, King of kings,
Beneath Thine own Almighty wings.
Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son,
The Ill that this day have done;
That with the world, myself, and Thee,
l, ere sleep, at peace may be.
Teach me to live, that I may dread
The grace as little as my bed;
To die, that this vile body may
Rise glorious at the awful day.
Oh, may my soul on Thee repose;
And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close
Sleep, that may me more vigorous max,
To serve my God when awake.
When in rhe night I sleepless lie,
My soul with heavenly thoughts supply
Let no i'll dreams disturb my rest,
No powers of darkness me modest.
Praise God, from whom all blessing
flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here belowI
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host!
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!

STARTS FIGHT TO
BREAK UNcLE'S WILL
Capitalist Claims Relatives Influenced
| Wealthy Mans Mind Against
Him and Gained Control
Of Estate

John Collins, nephew of the lat
Charles Collins, capitalist of Los An
geles, filed petition in the superior
court yesterday asking for the revoca'
ton of the probate of the latter's will
claiming the beneficiaries of the vas'
estate had unduly influenced his uncle
into excluding him from the will en-
tirely.
The sum involved in the will is
100000.
Those mentioned in the complaint as
having conspired against him are L.
w. Houghton,SA. o. Houghton and Mrs.
F. F. Short. It Is said that while Mr.
Collins lay at deaths door in little
hotel in Rivera the parties mentioned
coaxed him into signing a will deciding
his vast estate exclusively to them.
The plaintiff asserts that they black
mailed his character and informed his
dying uncle of every immaginable
allegation which finally turned his
relatives mind against him.
1t Is stated that at the time of the
signing of the will the capitalist was
unconscious of his act and that later
when he recovered his health he had
forgotten the matter entirely. Then
came the sudden death.
In his petition Collins also makes
men ton of Misses Margaret Jane Col
Inns and Ellen Collins, who are at pres
ent in Scotland, the native country of
the man over whose estate the trouble
is brewing.

SECRETARY sPALDINe MAY ALSO

SEQUEL TO EXAMINER ADAMS
RETIREMENT RuMoRED
With the New Year Commission VIII
Be Reorganized, New Appointments
to Vacancy Resting with
Mayor Harper

Civil Service Examiner w. L. Adams
is definitely out of the commission, he
having confirmed his resignation, about
which there was some doubt.
Mr.. Adams told friends yesterday
that he would claim no pay after the
last meeting of the commission he at
tended and that he will not conduct the
examinations set for Saturday.
1t develops that the retirement of Mr..
Adams was due not to friction with
Chairman John r. Hayes, but with
Secretary w. A. Spalding.
There has been an undercurrent OF
bad feeling rumored between the men,
of which only the commissioners had
any tnkling. Both principals, however
say they are friends.
1t dates back to eight months ago
when Adams first took office.
Short on Expectations
Stray gossip outside of the commits :
sion rooms indicates that Mr.. Adams
took the position only with the belief
that he would be paid $3.50 month
and that his department would be In
dependent of the secretary's.
Instead Secretary Spalding has as
sumed authority over the examinations.
claiming authority from the board,
however.
This internal pickering has revived
rumors of a change in the secretary
ship even before Commissioner Nc
eutcheon retires early next year.
1t is said that Secretary Spalding
has long been DESTROYS of retiring, as
ne is man of means. while Mr.. Adams
is also ranch owner, independent of
the city job. Neither of these men feel
the necessity of doing the hard work
which the commission entails continu-
ously.
Secretary Spalding is a scholarly
man, an author widely known in the
scientific world and has filled his place
since the founding of the commission.
The commissioners are said to be
divided over the secretaryship, some
favoring the shifting of Mr.. Spalding
to the examiners chair.
