FORTUNE
Comes To A Dentist In City
OF Newark
From His Sister Who Died In
October
(Newark American Tribune)

newark American lTlDuu6D
It became known yesterday that DR..
Walter w. Harrington, who in past
years was one of Newark's foremosts
dentists, now living at 115 Elmwood
avenue, has fallen heir to $4,000
through the death of mis- sister, Mrs.
Edna K. Branch, in New York City last
October.
When seen at his home yesterday
afternoon DR.. Harrington, who for the
past 12 years has been an invalid, re-
ceived the scribe courteously, and was
willing to, and did answer questions
concerning the inheritance. He said
that his sister, who is the last of the
family, save a brother, G. w. Harring
ton, living at 10 Gay street, this city,
had died on October 9th, last. She
had not been in very good health for
number of years, but she was not
seriously ill until after her return from
the seashore at Rye Beach, New Hamp-
shire, where she had gone to spend the
heated spell. Shortly alter her return,
however, she was taken to her bed anC
sank rapidly until death relieved her
sufferings.
Her property, which Is mostly in
stocks, was left to her only family
members, but the laws of New York
state do not permit of the settlement
of an estate until year has elapsed.
Archie s. White, former resident of
this city, is the administrator of the
estate, and is looking after the matter,
and when the proper time comes,
which will be about next November,
DR.. harrington and his brother, G. W.,
will come into possession of the mon.
y. Mr.. Branch during his lifetime was
engaged in business in Chicago, where
he died about thirty years ago. They
had a daughter, who died in the eighth
year Of her life.
DR.. Harrington, during his days OF
activity, was engaged in dental work
in the rooms In the Woodbridge build
ing, now occupied by DR.. G. w. En-
cry, and remained in the practice fol
Is years, but as above stated IL years
ago he was attacked with locomoto
ataxia, and although he has visited
many places in search of relief he il
yet an invalid. The good fortune tina
comes to him IS heartily endorsed b!
his many friends in this city.

COUPONS
Prohibited In Tobacco After
First Of July

IL local consumers of tobacco expect
to buy an automobile or furnish a
home with the coupons that come in
every package they had better get
busy. The new tariff law which be-
comes effective July l prohibits cou-
pons becoming 'redeemable for prem
iums. Many dollars worth of premiums
will be lost annually by tobacco com
panies, who issue premium lists In
which almost everything from collar
button to an automobile Is offered In
exchange for tags. The numbers of
tags for premiums vary from 20 up to
the thousands.
Local tobaccoists have not been in
formed of the new ruling but by send
ing to Washington they may secure
copy of the new tariff law and its
provisions in regard to all kinds to to-
baccos. The revised tariff Is said to
make interesting reading. Many peo-
pie in the city have saved thousands
OF coupons with the intention of re-
deeming them for valuaDle premium
some time, The desire to get some
thing that calls for more coupons than
they have prompts them to keep on
saving. 1t is to these people that the
new law will hit hardest and 1t is to
these that preliminary warning is is
sued to get busy and box up the cargo
of tags to be exchanged for something
beautiful.
Another interesting fact will be OBJ
served after July /. The size of the
smoking tobacco pouch and plug to-
bacco will be cut down, owing to the
fact that congress has seen fit to raise
the tax 2 cents pound on all kinds OF
manufactured tobacco except cigars
The dealers will not charge more for
the plug but the size will be'cut down
The present tax on tobacco was
cents a pound and now 1t will be

DEPosE DOES NOT DISPOSE

Suppose they do depose Cannon.
That doesn't change the fact tnat
the Payne-Aldrich bill was approved
and signed by Taft; and the further
fact that Taft said in his speech al
Winona, Mimi, that 1t is the best
tariff bill ever passed by the Repub-
lican party; and the still further
fact that Taft said in his message
to congress that it should be let
alone at least two years until his
new hide and seek tariff commits
sion can find out whether there is
really anything wrong with 1t.
The people who have since decid-
ed to go without meat as long as
possible, found out what Is wrong
with 1t inside of two years.
1t isn't Cannon only who ought to
be deposed, nor Aldrich either, but
the man who officially approved and
made law of their composite mon
strosity. Don't forget that fact in
1912.

Zuber, Kearns and Wlrmel paid

with a ruling made by a Republican
attorney who held that they were
not entitled to collect travelling ex-
penses in passing back and forth be-
tween Columbus and their homes.
This ruling reversed a precedent
and practice authorized by a former
Republican state auditor, when all
officials concerned were Republicans.
and since followed by the present Re-

In each case the amount involved
was small. but Iuber. Kearns and

Are Plentiful In The Food
For Lawmakers
Dairy Products Are Alive
With Bacteria

Washington, Feb. 10.--That inde-
fatigable pursuer and arch-enemy of
adventurous bacteria, DR.. Wiley, has
been assailing the food of our nation
al lawmakers. If there's something
radically wrong with congress II
may be due to the fact that senators
and representatives have been load
ing their systems with billions OF
streptococci and other things that
sound just as alarming.
DR.. Wiley announces that the res
taurants of the senate and house
buildings are--well, not above sus.
picion, for dairy products served
there, ice cream and butter, are the
favorite prey ,of the free-lanclng mic
robe and are really far below the av-
erage required by the district health
department.
The blow fell after an eminent bac-
teriologist connected with the De-
partment of Agriculture made a re-
port incident to the war on tubercu-
lar milk in Washington. Figures
which he marshaled in convincing
array caused CONSERVATION in the
capitol.
He showed that the ice cream serv-
ed in the lunchroom of the senate Of
fee building showed only a percent
age of 5.76 butter fat, while that In
the house showed 6.73 per cent. The
standard of butter fat required In
ice cream by the health department
Is IA per cent, or more than twice
as, much as maintained by those who
purvey to the appetites of the law
makers.
There is as high as 100000
germs in one cubic centimeter of the
milk and the cream served in the
senate restaurant. The butter was
infected to fully as large a degree.
The house lunchroom is in slightly
better condition, for the tests there
showed that the germs in a cubic
centimeter of milk served there mum.
bered only 100000.
DR.. Lloyd Magruder, an expert or
the subject and member of tnC
Washington milk conference, sale
that this was the highest percentage
of infection in milk that ever came
under his notice. He said that IL
Boston only 100000 bacteria were
allowed to a cubic centimeter of mill
or cream, while the milk conference
recommended that only 10000 germs
be allowed to the same quantity.
In every sample of milk or cream
tested in both eating-rooms step;o
cocci were found in alarming mum
bers. According to DR.. Magruder
these germs cause sore throat, wnici
sometimes can hardly be distinguish
ed from diphtheria, and are extreme
ly dangerous.

WAKING UP THE sLEEPERs

SO far FIVE "sleepers" have been
found in the Woods public utilities
bill, which President Taft told the
Ohio legislature through Speaker
Mooney, must be passed this session
and which the Republican leaders in
control of the legislative majority
have designated "a Republican meas
ure" so as to make the party lash
more effective.
The first Sleeper" is an old-fash
ioned political ripper to rip the pres
ent state railroad commission out OF
Office and put another commission
just like 1t in its place, instead OF
increasing the powers of the present
railroad commission.
The second Sleeper" is the per-
mission given public service corpor-
ations to raise rates on ten days no.
tice without the consent OF the COM
mission.
The third Sleeper" Is the proyi-
sion that rates cannot be reduced
without consent OF the commission.
which is to protect corporations
against their competitors. You see
they know each, other.
The fourth Sleeper" gives cor
porations opportunity to tie up by
proceedings in court any new rate
which the commission may make.
The fifth "sleeper" would put all
the expense upon the state for such
hearings as may be had with refer
ence to discrimination In rates, pro-
yiding the commission modles It's
order to the satisfaction of the cor
porations while court proceedings are
pending.
That's doing pretty we'll for "a
republican measure" which President
Taft told Speaker Mooney the Ohio
legislature must pass
It's a big bill, and no doubt Chere
are other sleepers tucked away some
where in the 10 900 words of It's 133
sections making 1149 lines on AZ
pages, and this before single
amendment has been proposed.
