Boston, June 15.-Because she

broken her engagement with Regin-

statement given out at the Kennard

reticent.
My daughter could not endure the
puritanic forInality of the Kennards,
and the severe conventionalism Of
New England society froze her vivac-
ious spirit said Mr.. Manierre, ac-
oording to a Chicago dispatch.
William P Kennard, an older
brother of Reginald, said today:

stealing from his wife. Judge With
row said he had looked up the au-
thorities and had found that a wife
could prosecute her husband for
stealing from her.
Howe still contended that the wife
could not be compelled to prosecute
her husband and declared that Mrs.
Stevenson was living with her $40
600" husband, had given him the mo-
ney to invest and did not want to
prosecute him.
Judge Withrow wanted time to in
vestigate. however, and laid the case
over to October.
Mrs. Stevenson was Miss Nellie
Sweeney Philpot. She married Stew
enson after a short acquaintance and
was said to have given him $4,000,
but she afterward said he had taken
1t from her and started a prosecution
against him.

to the morgue the police began an in
vestigation in the hope of finding
letters which might explain the mys-
FERROUS death Of the pair. The clothes
of the two were carefully searched,
but nothing was found to throw any
light on the case. The mystery In
the affair proved a puzzle.
LeGrange and Zader were room
mates and retired about midnight
About o'clock today other occupants
of the place discovered the escaping
gas and traced 1t to their room, but
were unable to gain entrance. When
policemen arrived the door of the
room was broken open and the bodies
of the two men were found dead side
by side. One jet was open and the
room filled with the escaping fumes.

DPASTIC INSURANCE
BILL IS DRAFTED

Jackson, Miss, Jan. "a drastic
bill is In the process Of construction,
which, if passed, will have the effect
of sweeping wildcat" life insurance
and mutual aid associations out of the
state. The scope and purpose of the
bill has been made known to some of
the members of both houses, and it
required little lobbying to convince
the members that it is a measure
which Mississippi has long been in
need of.
Senator Collier, of Vicksburg, who
is said to have been made acquainted
with the verbiage of the bill, stated
yesterday that he had no such knowl-
edge in his possession. However, sew
eral other members of the Senate and
House have been asked to give the
bill support when it is brought out
from the calendar for passage.
There will be number of reform
