 bind him to his wife, Emma A. l.. Me-
 Ormond. of Milford. by Judge Milton A. Shumway in the Superior court, yesterday afternoon, on the grounds of infideIity. The plaintiff related to the court that he married in August. 1906, that his wife was inclined to be a high flyer, and after trip out of town he returned to this city only to learn that his wife had left here. He later ascertained that she had again married and was residing in Milford with Charles Tibbals. Deputy Sher- if James Maher of Milford stated that he arrested Mrs McOrmond for bigamy, but she was later released on a bond given by her father. After the arrest McOrmond met his wife. asking her if she was not his lawful wife. "Yes," she answered, "but I thought you were dead"

MAYOR FISHER TALKS ABOUT THE 'RASCALS' He Is Tired of Trying to Ac-
 complish Reforms

Middletown, Jan. 14-Further dis closures of alleged irregularities in the conduct of town affairs were brought forth by Mayor Fisher at a largely attended town meeting held last night.
 Mayor Fisher said that he was tir- ed of trying to accomplish results in Middletown. He said that during the three years that he had been in of flee, no members of the city govern ment had stood by him and that he made all the politicians his enemies. "All the rascals are hostile to me, ,' said the mayor. 1T have done my best to show the citizens these irregulari- ties and the people, who seem at fault, elect these men to office just the same" He said that if the people had confidence in him, however, he would not quit.

SOME EFFECTS OF
 SELDEN DECISION No Disbandment of the A. of L. A. M. Is Likely

The wall Street Journal'' man has been listening to some of the talk at the Madison Square Garden auto mobile show regarding the dicision of the United States circuit court of Ap- peals adverse to the Selden patent, and he makes report as follows:
 There is still considerable discus sion current among the autoists and exhibitors at the Garden concerning the overthrow of the Selden patent and many interesting theories are be- ing evolved as to the ultimate effect of the decision. The latest opinion holds that there will be no immediate upheaval and that, contrary to an earlier report, the Association of L1- censed Automobile Manufacturers win not carry the case to the United States Supreme court. This for several req sons: Outside of the expense involved, it is probable that before the suit sion be reached by the court, the pat ent would have expired, as it has only about two years more to run.
 Another point .is that all makers have planned their outputs for 1911, and are very unlikely either to in- lower quotations, these having always been fixed without regard to the roy atty payment. All fees ceased from the day of the Moves decision, but, as has been pointed out before, a net average tax of s a machine could hardly have any influence upon retail prices It is more likely that the as- sociation will devote it's time to a re- organization along slightly different lines than those existing at present, and will rely upon voluntary mem- bership fee for it's supporting income.
 As a matter of fact the principal companies, which made important price reductions recently, the EMF, and the United States Motor Company are members of the A. of L. A. M., and the Ford was the only non-fee- paying concern making cuts of any consequence. It might be a natural move on the part of those who have been paying the Selden fees for sev- eral years to turn around and sue the association to recover their contribu- tions, but as the largest producers are directors of the organizations pol icies and destinies. such suit is not likely to occur.
 On the other hand the Ford com- pany might bring suit against the A. of l.. A. M. and all automobile man. ufacturers to recover royalties for the past and future on the grounds that Justice Moves in his decree upheld the Otto engine, the one used by the Ford cars.

Medical scientists have arrived at
the conclusion, after various expert

and therefore much more capable of
resisting disease germs than the
blood of persons living near sea

height is the cause of mountain sick

This tip business said a man of
small income, has come to be Sc
rious matter.

would to have them stay home. or

Years ago We gave some small tips,
a little to the waitress and little to
the chambermaid, amounts not great,
but now we have to give more to them
and we have to give also to the chef
and TO the housekeeper and so on,
something TO everybody that does
something for US. 1t seems to be the
custom, and II all counts UP.
This year, for instance. sent the
folks along weekly the little check for
their board and their other moderate
expenses-and they are always careful
about those-and everything is going
along very pleasantly and | see us set
Ting the financial problem very nice
