Bill for Inspection of Diaries by State
Board of Health. 4

Before the committee on health and
public safety of the general assembly
at Hartford yesterday DR.. Frank G.
Atwood, OF New Haven, made a plea,
for the inspection of dairies by the
state board of health, and supported
the bill which provides that a veter-
marian shall be appointed in each
town to make physical examination,
four times year, of all the cows pro-
ducirg milk.
The bill proposes that the state
state board of health ask for an add
tional appropriation of $4,000 as a
start to pay the veterinarians. He

ease contracted by infection from milk
from diseased cows. This could be
prevented, he maintained, by proper
inspection of cows by expert veterin-

STEALS ROAD ROLLER
Banks Gets SIS for 1t from Junk
Dealer and Also Gets Arrested.

Henry Banks, of q Fourth avenue,
West Haven, was arrested yesterday
afternoon for the theft OF a steam
road roller, which, it is alleged, he had
sold for SIS. Banks confessed to the
theft after he was arrested and said
he stole the road roller because he
needed the money to provide for his
family. Banks located the road roller
in quarry in Fair Haven East, and
as the roller weighs several tons, he
found it rather difficult to carry it off,
so he went to S. Gitlftz, New Haven
junk dealer and told him he had an
old road roller to sell. Accompanied
by the junk dealer, Banks went back
to Fair Haven and -so1d4.-it for SIS.
Git1itz got a receipt and fastened to
get tools and men to aid in breaking
up his purchase for transferral to his
junk heap. While in the midst OF
this occupation two OF the employees
of Contractor Frank Brazos, owner Of
the machine came along and demand
ed an explanation. .Gitlitz hauled out
his receipt, but the men notified Mr.
Brazos who finally convinced Gftlitz
that he owned a managing interest in
the roller.

TOMBSTONE RESTS
 OA HISTORIC GROUND


 Just to show Tombstone and the fine old pioneership of that town that the Review has no i'll feelings toward them. the following is repro duced from the Prospector:
 The county seat removal bill final ly passed in the legislature. The bill was changed so often after its origin al presentation that it's exact pro- vision cannot be given today
 As the measure was for the special purpose of depriying Tombstone Of the county seat of Cochise county, the citizens of Tombstone did every thing possible to prevent it's passage, and though unsuccessful, our people were able to cut away any possibility of the county being exploited by those who might desire to eXtort al nn- reasonable price for court house or site. The amendment, which will require a vote of 60 per cent 10 bring about removal is also due to the ef- forts of Tombstone.
 'On the question of shall the coaa- " seat be removed?" Tombstone will continue to fight for the preservation of this city's important support and for keeping alive the many historic
 eatures and sentiment that cling te Tombstone and to many Of its old pioneer residents. No city in Ari- ;ona has ever contributed more 10 he luster and fame Of this new state than dear old Tombstone: it was here

 mitted suicide was without foundation.
 From the statements made by his wifewife it appears that Proctor left the house at night and remained out all night. For some time he had been
 having trouble with his neighbors be cause he had fenced up land belonging z Co him, which had water on it It is stated on good authority that his life had been threatened and he always carried six-shooter to defend him self. The theory is that in the night he was taken with apoplexy or heart failure evidently after imagining that someone was near him who sought
