quaint the people everywhere with approved methods
Of prevention of the disease. The press of the
country is lending valuable assistance to the effort
Tuberculosis kills 100000 persons every year in the
United States and there are than 100000 cases
Of this disease now prevalent in the country.
Cleanliness and clean living will prevent near
ly all diseases tuberculosis is contagious and is
spread among all classes because those afflicted with
it do not have proper regard for the health of
others. Those who are known to be affected ought
to be isolated, the yellow fever, scarlet

been practically conquered by the medical men and
tuberculosis which has always been considered hope
less is now coming under control.
Plenty of fresh, pure air inhaled into the lungs
will assist in resisting further nroads upon them by
this disease. Isolation mountain tops has proved
most beneficial to tuberculosis patients.
tuberculosis is conquerable in its incipient
stages The trouble is chiefly with the patients in
failing to follow the instructions of their physicians.
It brings to mind the lady who weighed 800 pounds
and desired to reduce her weight. Her physician
prescribed dry toast coffee without sugar and cream
or tea for steady diet In three weeks the afore-
said lady weighed more than "Have you been
eating the diet prescribed?" asked the Doctor.
Eyes," she replied. "But it has been hard work
after eating three hearty meals each day.
1t is the fault of many tuberculosis patients
that they do not recover from their afliction They
will not adhere to the regimen prescribed by the
Doctors-nor will they conform to the rules laid
down for them Therefore publicity in the press Of
the nation will no doubt prove effective in directing
particular attention to necessary rules to be followed
in stamping out this terrible plague.

THE State Board Of Health Of Missouri has
sent report to Gov. Hadley recommending the
bathing of prisoners twice week. The Board also
suggests airing the clothing of the inmates of the
penitentiary week. Health Is the main
thing In life'-and upon that self-evident truth
there is no opportunity for controversial argument
Refreshing baths clean linen and renovated clothing
are next in importance to wholesome and nourlshlng
food. All penologists agree upon the conclusion
that the punishment of prisoners consists chiefly In
their solitary conference.-the say nothing OF the
mental anguish caused by their conviction and the
suffering brought upon those who are near and dear
to them-for oonvicts have feelings differing in no
sense from those possessed by other members OF the
human family.

MURDER MYSTERY
 PUZZLES POLICE:
Especial from United Presso

Providence. R. l.. May 25-Hope of solving the mystery of the murder of Laura Register on the night of May 10 here was renewed to-day when the police learned the name of another man who was very intimate with Miss Register and who had not hitherto been mentioned in the case. This man has disappeared from Providence at some time since the crime occurred and his whereabouts are at present un- known. Every effort, however. will be made to find him as he is believed to know more of the girls life than any of those so far interrogated.
 Another promising clue to the per petrator of the murder is being fol- lowed up. It came from D. A. New ton, who at five minutes past ten on the night of May 10 heard a woman's screams near the Jewish cemetery where the Register girls body was found the following morning. This is believed to place that time as the hour and minutes of the murder and. fitted in with other circumstances known to the police is believed to make more probable the ultimate solution of the mystery.

JOHNSON DID NOT
 SAIL TODAY

New York, May 25.-Jack Johnson did not sail today on the North Ger man Lloyd liner Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, notwithstanding the fact that. under the name of MT. J. Johnson, he had booked passage and his bag gage was piled on the dock. There's a reason" but the sporting fraternity hasn't found out yet just what it is.
 Some of the sports who think none too well of Johnson declare that the news from London that Langford had knocked out Ian Hague scared away the colored fighter. Johnson, of course, denies this. He says he aban- doned the trip in order to take on Jim Corbett for a six round go for whicts he has opened negotiations.

KNEW UNCLE
 BY TEETH,
 SHOES, PIPE

The trial Of Dominica Bove for the killing of Pasquale Borgamo in Darien in December, 1905, was resumed in the criminal court this morning, but no very sensational evidence was devel- oped. The first witness called was the clerk of the Stamford court who produced records to show that Bor- gamo was arrested and fined $15 in the court for breach of the peace. Felice Vrince of Darien who testified on Fri day, was cross-examined this morning. Felice is a nephew of the murdered man. He said that he knew the skele- ton, which is produced as gruesome evidence in the court before the pris- oner, was that of his uncle as he could tell by the teeth, they being so firm. The teeth of the murdered man are very firm and almost perfect. The attorney for the defense tried to bring g out that Vrince recognized the body by the bones, but the witness denied this
 He also knew that the pipe found was that of his uncles as there was only one like it in Darien. On cross examination he testified that he had seen pipes of similar make in New York and Stamford. The shoes of the dead man he knew were those of his uncle, as he was with him at the time that he bought them. The only difference being that they were then black, but that they were now dirty. He did not make very valuable wit ness for the state.
 Antonio Cincicropo of Noroton was the next witness and told the court that he had heard that the Bergamo had gone away and that his wife, Mar zano and Boye, the three accused of his killing, had followed him. He tes- tified that he went to the Bergamo house a few days before they had dis appeared and borrowed a double bar reled shot gun to go hunting. The gun was given to him by Marzano who was the only one at home at the time. Court then adjourned until
