8--Preliminary steps taken here Saturday toward securing tne release from the Mlddletown State Hospital of Ida Von Claussen, whose activities in certain lines of" international affairs and limited Circles of society have interested tlie puHjllc at large in recent years. Matthew B. Claussen, her brother, of West 85th fatreet, New York cit, secured from Justice Morschauser an order, him committee of the person and property ot his sister. He will be to give bond for $11,000. In coin-t, Claussen said that hs is now In a position to care for his sis- tor and to restrain her from plunging into tlie limelight ot publicity as she has in the pnst, "Her friends' of former days have been eliminated," said her brother, 'and I think that they'll keep pretty far away She was under the bad Influence of certain people and even now these people have been trying to communicate with hec to tell her that my sole purpose is to get her money." Ida Von Claussen was formerlj an inmate of the Matteawan Hospital for Criminal Insane.

She was sent there after she was held for sending threatening letters to public' men in New York citv Her first plunge into public notice was when she went to Sweden, demanded tr-at the American minister there arrange for her an audience with the king and queen, and when he declined, she wired the President, demanding the minister's recall. Following that she sailed for this country to emphasize her request After that her activities frequently brought her Into the columns of the newspapers ib a paranoiac, according to trip testimony of doctors who have been familiar with her HORRIBLE DEATH WHILE HUNTING Floyd Mackey Shot by Own Gun Kingston, NOT. his intes- UnoH nothing but a bloody mass euid llter.Uly riddled with buckshot, Flojd -Mnckcy, the 21 year old son of Mr. nud Mrs. Reuben Mackey ol Mcttaca- hnnts, about four rnllcf from Kerhonk- hon, vsas brought to the Kingston City IloHpltal about 9 o'clock.

Y.

greatest asset of a state Is Itt people. Nothing more intimately and directly concerns the state's welfare than the conservation of the health, vitality and efficiency ol its people." Thus Governor Charles S. Whitman summed up in his address before tlie tuberculosis mass meeting in Albany the reason for the public's interest In the tuberculosis campaign and the reason why, according to the governor, there should be even greater activity in the future by state and local agencies than there has been in the past. The meeting at which the governor spoke was tlie chief session of the annual state conference of tuberculosis workers, held under the auspic.es of the State Charities usor iutlon. Meet- Ing at the same time was the north Atlantic states' tuberculosis conference, held under the auspices of the National Tuberculosis association.

Public and Private Co-operation. Co-operarinsj with the two private ganlzatlons was the state department of health. The meetings were held In the state education building. (These facts lent particular interest to the governor's comments on one of the distinguishing characteristics of the tuberculosis movement, the co-operation between public authorities and private organizations. "The skill nnd success with which a co-operative understanding was secured and has been maintained between public authority and private Initiative in tlie tuberculosis campaign," said Governor "Whitman, "should long serve as an example nnd an Inspliation for similar co-operative effort in many other of social betterment and human welfare.

This is true not only of the state as a whole, but also of the various cities, counties and towns. Must Have Private Aid. "We cannot depend upon the state alone, for it It alreadj' straining its resources of money and' of administration. TVe cannot depend upon private initiative alone, for its authority is limited and its resources also inadequate. Only by wise and large inlndecl co-operative action of both the state and local authorities and of all private organizations illing to lend a hand can siny lartre result in public health or in any other field be achieved." The governor expressed considerable surprise tbut the state nad taken so smtill a part, relatively, in this "wide and sweeping movement." "While It had developed the capacity of the hos pital a Kiybrook for incipient tuber- culosis, had enacted a number of im- portaut laws dealing with hospitals and sanitary supervision of cases in homes, and while It had reorgan- ised the state department of health, largely because the anti-tuberculosis movement icvcaled the necessity for it, nevertheless the division of tuberculosis ip the state department of health existed only in statute, no funds having been provided last year or this yeac for the organization of this important division.

Hope For Appropriation. Many of the governor's hearers believed that this reference to the tuberculosis division of the state department of health that an pria'tton for the work of tnis during session of the legislature, would have his support. In commenting upon the part played by tfie State Charities Aid association in the tuberculosis movement outside ot New York city, Governor Whitman said: "It is gratifying that so large a part has been taken In the tuberculosis movement by interested citizens and lay- organizations. We need these local associations and societies to hold the local authorities to a high sense of duty and to furnish the stiipuluR for securing funds with which to carry on the work. Aside from the department of health, the leadership in the movement in the state outside of New York city bas been taken from the outset by an organization presided over by my long time friend and counselor, the Hon.

Joseph Ghoate, who has placed the state, already deeply Indebted to him. under further and lasting obligations by giving the prestige of his name and by giving bis own personal presence nnd participation on repeat ed occasions and his counsel at all tiroes to this campaign." A CLEAR CUT PROGRAM. "I am glad that we have In this state a defined policy and a -clear cut program for the control tuberculosis. Eight years ago the anti-tuberculosis movement In this state was planned on definite lines and since then has been very effectively organized. We are not groping in the dark as to facts, we are not arousing the interest and mpathy of the people without pointing out what to do about It, ami we are seeing to it that the necessary steps are actually being taken QOV.

Company. Albany, Nov. --In order to facilitate the registration and the identification of the quarter of million au- tomobilus of 1910, New York state is to be. divifif-u Into three distinct auto- mobtl'e zones during the coming ypir, according to an announcement forthcoming from the office of Secretary of State Francis M. Haipo.

The registration "plates in each zone will be distinctive, making it an easy matter for the ordinary person to recognise at a glance the section from which the automobile comes. The plates to be used In tho Buffalo zone will carry the letter before the numbers, while the ilatea in the so-called Albany zone will carry the letter in a like position. Tiie, New i city zone plates i be without alphabetical charactei- ization The boundaries of each zone 01 determined by a rule already formulated by the department. The number platcb tor next year will possess a distinctive feature in ihat they will be hyphenated; those of five figures having a dash 'between the second and third numerals, therc- hj separating the hundreds from thousands -ind making it a compar- ativel.v easy matter for che motorcycle ofllcer, the patrolman or other officers of the law to catch and remember the ni.mber oE a car. The use of the hyphen was decided upon Secretary of State Hugo after a number of experiments had been made In the office of the state automobile bureau to determine tho elli- ciuicy of the dash between the numerals It was found that in nine casos out of 10 a person, shown the hyphenated number plate for a fraction of a second, could later on recall tho numbers, whereas in tho case of a live figure number plate such as now in use, efforts to correctly enumerate the figures were moro or less futile.

The 1916 auto number plates will liave numerals of dark blue on a croam Ur.ekpiound. The plates i bo practically the same slza as this year's. Another change making the plates more easily read and remenrbered will be seemed by pla-cing the Y. T.ilO" beneath, instead of before the legistration numbers Such an ar- ranscment does away with the possibility of a letter or a figure being- con fused at night as a part of the registration itseltf. Dealers' plates for next j-ear will carry the letter "JV1" before the numerals.

The division of the state into zone areas eliminates the necessity of using eix figures on the number plates. AT I A CO. COURT, Elmer H.

DURLAND, AT HAVANA, CUBA How a Young Man Is Able to Make His Way in These Days of Competition The New Canan (Conn.) Advertiser of recent date, contained the following regarding John S.

Durland, grandson of the late Hon. Stewart T. Durland. He spent many of his childhood days at WesttC'Wn, with his grandmother, the late Mrs. John King We are always pleased to' record the successes of ambitious young men, especially whore tneir success is clearly due to their own ability.

We are indebted to Dr. Moiris Lee King for the following account of the success of his nephew, John Durland who, on several occasions, lias vioited the doctor at his home in New Canaan. As a preface we quote a portion of a letter written by Dr. King to the editor of the Advertiser, as follows: "I noted a few days ago your appeal for items of news of interest and I send you the following which illustrates how a young man, if he has a fair start, can make his way in these days of competition. "The clipping from the leading dally paper of Havana, Cuba, refers to my nephew, John whose history runs about as follows: "When I was living in Europe I carried out the intention I had always had of doing something for this boy, and kept him in Europe for three years, he coming back at about the age of 17 or 18, fully equipped with a good knowledge of French, German and Spanish.

Alter he had spent some little time in New York, I secured him a position a clerk in a Havana bank at a very small salary. The manager- of this bank was an American, who, as is usiial with Americans, spoke English only. This young man became his right hand in the way of acting as interpreter under all kinds of conditions, and in a-very short time he really knew more about bank matters than did the manager. At the time he was 21 he was made manager of branch bank which was opened in one of the larger cities of Cuba, and has been, manager of onQ bank or another ever since that time. He is now about So years of age, and has just been made general manager for tho "West Indies for the National City Bank, the largest of our American banks.

This at his age is certainly remarkable success, especially as lie has stood on his own feet without any hacking since he entered as a clerk. In other words, he has made his own way." The clipping above referred to from "El Diarlo" of Havana, Satur- day, August 14, 3915, Is as follows: "One of our principal and most I prosperous institutions of credit, the Banco de la Habana, has convoked an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders for August 20tU next, for the purpose of dealing with the manner aad terms under which its business in 'the future will be developed in connection with those of the National City Bank of New York, and taking into consideration the purposes of this last named bank in spreading and developing ita important business in Cuta, establishing for such purpose a branch office, and in view of the fact that, a great number of the shares of the first named bank are In possession, or are going to he acquired by raeiits connected with the National City Bank, which enjoys the deserved reputation of being the most important estahlishment of credit" "of the United States of America. "For this purpose, the two banks have reached an understanding in the sense that the National -City Bank named begins at once th.e business and operations of- its Cuban branch office, using the offices of the bank and the personnel adequate for the -purpose, Durland having now been appointed to the position of general has been assistant, manager of the Banco.de la Habana, whose competence in financial matters is sufficiently recognized, having filled Important positions in the North. American Trust and in ttie Banco Nacional of Dr. Carlos 1, appointed to the position ol consulting lawyer, and Porflrio Franca-to the position of assistant manager; all of them bring to the new financial organization the valuable advise ol their respective competence "and' ability in the departments" with which they are intrusted.

Such appointments and the help which the hanking institution will continue to receive from the present ex-directors of the Banco de la Habaua, guarantee to it a. complete success oL its ness, which without doubt will restilt in a public advantage. 1 "The National City Bank of New York is" an institution having posits amounting to four hundred million dollars, it is proposed to develop great business in this country-, especially helping without any limitation whatever commerce "in general, and the Cuban planters and farmers. "After the branch office has been established, other branch offices will be opened in other localities of importance, of the interior of the republic, and also of the West Indies, all of which will remain under the supervisor ofr John S. Durland." M.
