The chairman of the board said he did not think the remarks offensive or lie would not have sto^d for it. Dr. Saunders, with flashing eyes, dubbed the remark attributed to Dr. Grifim, *a most unfortunate slip," as Dr. Carouthers said he consideied it only ft a slip. jfr Friendly with Babcock. Dr. Carouthers said the relations between him and Dr. Babcock had been friendly aid there had been perfect harmony between Dr. Babcock and the regents until recently, when there was not apparent just that feeling there ought to be. He said it was necessary for the institution- to have harmony and cooperation between all the officials and subordinates. He B gave it as his opinion that there would have been peace if Dr. Saunders had resigned. W~ That Dr. Babcock and the regents ' have co-ordinate authority and that a dual head of the asylum exists is the opinion of Dr. Carouthers. Dr. Taylor had asked Dr. Carouthers ii Dr. Settlemeyer, a member of the - ^ J /I ooara 01 regents, uau ?iui ucmcu knowledge of any meeting at the St. k John Hotel with the subordinates when Dr. Taylor was absent, and Chairman Carouthers said Dr. Settlemeyer would have to answer that himself. The latter wanted to make a statement, but waited when the committee told him he would be given an opportunity to testify. Under question from Dr. Babcock if was brought out from Dr. Carouth rs that He nad saia tne asyium iriction ought not to "be agitated just on the B eve of the legislature's meeting, and that he had been afraid last September v the trouble was coming and that he would liRe to have resigned except he would not do so under fire. Dr. Carouthers said he did not think the investigation would do any good, as it only made the friction worse to have it agitated. He said he was not opposed 10 the general assembly knowing every, thing, only he could not see where it would be a;:y good for the instiution for the friction Between the medical v_ L-U t.^,1 -LT^ SU1U tu ue lUlLllci ci5iuaLcu. xxr; oowu right behind the board of regents and in passage with Dr. Babcock said he thought the whole trouble would have been averted if Dr. Saunders had resigned. Dr. Babcock said he did not propose to fold his hands and let the young lady be driven out of the instik tution when she 'had been doing her duty and was such a faithful and W efficient official. The committee recessed at a late hour until Thursday afternoon at 3.30 o'clock. The sessions this afternoon were held in the hall of the house and a large crowd listened to Dr. Carouthers testimony.

Cowen, head of the flying corps, declarod the machine which Post was piloting was solely rej sponsible for the accident.

I PROVE IT YOURSELF BY BUYING a box of Tonoline Tablets NOW. "By George, I never saw anything like the effects of that new treatment, Tonoline Tablets, for building up of weight and lost nerve force.

Any man or woman who is thin can recover normal weight by the best new treatment Tonoline Tablets. "I have been thin for years and began to think it was natural for me to be that way.
