New York. April Clown in the
vault of the jefferson Bank, at Forsyth
and Canal streets today, George w
Rose. assistant receiving teller of the
bank, took his own life. Rose used an
implement ready at hand. slashng his
throat and hands with an ink eraser
The suicide left no indication of the
reason for the act ard his friends are
induced by the fact that his salary had
recently been reduced

many years and was well known in
BARKING circles He was 50 years Old
and lived with his family at Hacken-
sack. N i. a son attending Cornell
University and a daughter is a student
of Barnard College
The teller had been connected with the
Jefferson Bank since last August. The
jefferson Bank recently announced a cut
in salaries and Mr.. Roses salary was
cut to $500 a year. He had been re-
ceiviug Il much larger amount. 1t is
supposed that this worried him and his
friends say that he had not been himself
for several days.
This morning Mr.. Rose arrived at the
bank and talked for a few moments
with William II. Olandt one of the tell
ers. He then went downstairs.
Not returning after considerable time
had passed. Mr. Olandt went downstairs.
He did not Sc Mr.. Rose in the room
and found the door of the vault closed.
1t was not locked, however, and as Mr..
Olandt swung it open he saw Mr.. Rose
on the floor in pool of blood, with an
ink eraser beside him. He had cut his
throat and had slashed both wrists three
tines. He was breathing, but was I'M

Justice Emery Makes an
Important Decision
h Suits Against Maine Eye
And Ear Intl1mary
IA Case Of Pzdent Who Fell to
Death from Window.

Portland, Me. April 27.-An i'm
portant decision was made by Chief
Justice Emery in the supreme court
today in the trial of suits brought by
JuIius Jensen OF this city against the
MaUIe Eye and Ear Infirmary to re-
cover for the death of his wife, Mary
Jensen, which occurred July II, 1908,
when she fell from the fifth story win
dow of the hospital, being a patient
there.
The chief justice directed the jury
to bring in verdict for the defendant
corporation One suit for $4,000 was
brought in the name Of the husband
and the other for $4,000 in his name
as administrator of his wife's estate.
1t developed in the testimony that
Mrs. Jensen was the patient of DR..
John w. Comedian of this city and
that treatment given here was by his
direction.
Chief Justice Emery. when all the
evidence was in for both sides, said:
Il think under our law this defendant
is not responsible"
The reasons for reaching this con-
cluson were that the infirmary was
not money making corporation but
purely charitable and every dollar
taken from the treasury to defend
suits would decrease its usefulness.
Second, it appeared that Mrs. Jen-
sen was not under the control of the
officers of the institution, but was put
there by her husband on the advice of
physician. If it was necessary for
nurse to be with Mrs. Jensen to
watch her constantly. it was the duty

A MILK WAR
Proclaimed by Producers
Against Contractors,
Demand for SO 1-3 Gents Per
Can Instead Of Is.
Milk Famine and Suffering Of
Consumers May Be Result.

Boston, April pa declaration of
war between milk producers and con-
tractors in the so-called Boston dis
trict, with the innocent consumers as
the principal sufferers. probably was
proclaimed today by the producers at
the close of an enthusiastic meeting
at the American House. 1t is expected
that hostilities will begin on May l..
The fight is on the rate per can of S1s
quarts. The producers demand 33R
cents, the rate paid during the winter.
while the contractors have decided to
maintain the 25 cent rate which has
obtained during the summer months
for the past three years.
The meeting here today was attend
ed by so farmers. who claimed that
they represented nearly 5000 producers
supplying Boston with 10000 cans Of
milk daily.
If the declaration of war is carried
into effect a milk famine in Boston
seems possible The contractors, who
handle the milk in this city expressed
the opinion today that many of the
farmers would not hold to the action
taken today and that there were a
sufficient number of producers not in
the association to keep Boston from
being milkless.

ORDINARY CARE
lessons DANGER

Authorities are pretty well united Ia the
opinion that ordinary care on the part Of
the individual greatly lessons the danger
pf contracting consumption. So many cases
nf this dread disease have their origin In
neglect of an ordinary cough or cold, that
1t Is appalling to note the indifference with
which 50 many people regard this COM
mon complaint.
At the first Indication Of cold steps
should be taken to check 1t at once For
this purpose the following simple formula
Is highly recommended as being most eff
fective. Mix together, In a large bottle,
two ounces of Glycerine, half-ounce of
Virgin Oil Of Pine compound pure and
eight ounces OF pure Whisky. Shake well
and take a teaspoonfuI four times a day.
1t IL claimed by the Leach Chemical Co,
Of Cincinnati who prepare the genuine

this mixture will break up a cold In
