Kitching of No. 24 Bank street, Manhattan, refused to accept the estate left by her uncle, Francis F. Ripley, upon the ground that it was “tainted money,” she turned down $194,860. The estate was first roughly estimated at $200,- 000, but the official appraisal shows it to be $194,860. Inasmuch as Ripley died intestate, and Miss Kitching, his only heir, has refused to accept any part of the property left by him, it is likely ul- timately to be paid into the state . The estate is being ad- ministered temporarily by the Ham- ilton Trust company in Brooklyn un- der the supervision of the public administrator. Charles J. McDermott, attorney for the trust company, stated that upon proof to the surrogate of Kings coun- ty that Miss Kitching has refused to accept the estate, an order may be made requiring that it be held in the Chamberlain’s office for six month’s at the end of which it would become payable to the state. “Could Miss Kitching claim the estate at any time during her life?” Mr. McDermott was asked, “after it had been held six months in the state treasury?” “I believe she could,” he answered., Mr. Ripley died last Nov. 11 at No. 80 State street, Brooklyn, in a fur- nished room. He lived the life of a recluse, retired from all active busi- ness for many years before his death. His estate corsisted principaly of stocks and bonds. Claims against the estate, which were disallowed by the appraiser, but which may eventually have the effect of turning nearly $75,000 over to var- ious charities, as as follows: Long Island college hospital, $20,000, and the Brooklyn Children’s Aid society, Brooklyn hospital and House of St. Giles the Cripple, $10,000 each. The Waysile Home made claim of $13,000 against the estate, and Anna A. In- gells one of $10,000. Mr. McDermott said the claims are mortgages apparently executed by Ripley before he died, in favor of the claimants. KEEP ON AKISSIN® Boston Health Authority Says There's No Danger. Boston, May 8—‘Keep on kissing, girls,; don’t be afraid of the germs.” This is the advice given by 1544 Charles E. Page, head of the Health school, after criticising the remarks of Dr. C. V. Chapin, the Providence health official, who, in his talk before the Harvard Medical school, put the ban on all Kissing. “We're getting germ ecrazy,” said Dr. Page. Now we have put the ‘bug’ i ing. Do you suppose all this tommyrot about kissing will i.c heeded ? “Why should we frighten court- ing couples I've been a physician a number of years, but I've spent all my time in rebutting testimony from physicians which is mere speculation and does more harm than good, and I can prove it.” SEEKING HOMESSTEADS.
