s We have the auditor report before
us from which we will be able to ex
tract tome figures of Importance to our
neoDle for thUyear'a work. Tf.etnrt
tock companies In this state last year
wrote 125.823.005 for which ihey coi
lectee" 1456,12194 or 117.60 per 11,000
insured
On the other hand there are twenty
nine mutual companies reported; the
Amount written by them wast2,439,18
08 for which they collected for same
6,103.81 or 13.334 per thousand or le
than 1-5 the cost m tnesiocKconjpante.
The saving in thes amount of Insurance
according to the figures above would
be $34,815.69. In other words If the in
surance wrltUn by these twenty-nine
mutual companies had been written by
the stock companies the cost would
have been 142,929 60 Instead of 18,103.91
But with these figures staring a man

Into the stock companies because they
will not be called on for more money
than they pay at first
Readers after you have read this
band it to your neighbor and commence
to work up a mutual feeling among
jour people, and in the mean time if
we can be of any help to you say so.
I am going to take a trip to the north
part of the state soon and I would like
to meet farmers at many places, the
cost to your neighborhood would be but
little more than hotel bills while I am
With you. If you want a meeting let
me know at once and I will give you a
date.
In the meantime if any company
claiming to be a mutual asks to do your
insurance and-wants to collect a large
fee you should consider well before you
aign a contract with them. A hint to
the wise is sufficient
HAIL.
I would advise all who are interested
in hall insurance to talk it to your
neighbor in and out of season. We
have but live or six criticisms on our
rules, hence we take it for granted that
almost all are satisfied with them we
will at oace proceed to make our blank
applications and full instructions to
agents eto. Write for tTm,
SQU1BZED THS LILY.
Capteb Holt Has Eajojed Prlrllas-a
Granted to Few.
Oapt Holt of the British steamship
Ifrndhurst, is a native of the Island of
Jersey, in the English channel. He
recently related some instances of life
ttpon the island to a reporter. He said
that whta Lily Langtry was in her
teens he had taken her in his arms and
qweezed her just as only good sailors
can. His people lived in the parish of
8t Saviour, over which the Rev.
William Corbet Le Breton, the
Lily's father, was the dean.
Beginald Le Breton, a son,
and Capt Holt were mem
bers of the same a thletlo club. Lillian
Le Breton, he said, was no prettier than
many other of the maids of Jersey. As
young girl she was religious. - This
characteristic, with her fine education
and home surroundings, made her at
. tractive. After leaving home as the
bride of Edward Langtry, Capt nolt
aaw no more of Lillian until a few
years ago on the stage in Edinbunr.
Scotland, tftio knew he was in the
audience, but he says she gave no sign
of recognition to her former acquaint
ance in the parish of St Saviour.
CAN THIS BE TRUE?

LrrcHrnELD, I1L March 81 An e
plosion resembling an earthquake de
stroyed about fl.000,000 worth ol
property here to-day and caused the
lose of at least one life and the injury
of a number of people. Practically
every business structure in Litchfied
was wrecked and scores of dwellings
render M uninhabitable. Panic reigned
for hours. '
About 3:15 a. m., an alarm of fire
waa turned in from the Litchfield
"Planet" mills in the southwest part
of the city, owned by Ke or & ta ol
St Louis, said to be one the largest
if not the largest single our making
establishment in the w rid. Jiefore
the firemen arrived the fire had gained
such headway that for some time
nothing could be done to check it and
it seemed as if the entire south part of
town would be consumed.
The fire is supposed to have origi
nated by a spark from a passing loco
motive falling in one of the dust
rooms.
The hose, hook and ladder companies
had har succeeded in getting their
apparatn in working order when an
explosion, caused j the flames' sud
den contact with pent up mill dust,
shook the earth over a wide area,
while the atmospheric concussion was
felt as far as Decatur, a distance of
fifty miles. Despite this the firemen
battled with the flames for three
hours, finally subduing ''tern to such
an extent that adjoining p ty was
saved. .
John C Carve, heud miller, in making
an effort to secure his t ols from the
burning building, was stunned by the
explosion and in endeavoring to e ape
was pinned against the smokestack
and burned to death.
The large elevator on the Wabash
track containing 250,000 bushels of
wheat caught fire from the mills and,
together with its contents was de
stroyed. Ten or twelve cars of wheat
standing on the house track were re
duced to ashes.
A number of serious but not neces
sarily fatal accidents are reported.
The mill was the property of Kehlor
Bros, of St Louis. Its capacity was
2,00) barrels of flour dally. It em
loved 150 men. General Manager
mlth stated that the amount of in
surance carried on the mill, elevator
and contents was about 1350,0 JO, while
the loss will run up to almost 91,000,
000. ,
WAR ON JOINT8.
Every Liquor Dealer In Fort Soott Ar
retted Vlforom Prosecution Proposed.
Fort Soott, Kan., March 22. Gov
ernor Lewelling last night sent to
Attorney J. L Sheppard of this city a
commisHion as deputy attorney general

Among the prisoners were Borne promi
nent business men.
Injunctions were served upon the
owners of the buildings in which . the
saloons were conducted restraining
them from continuing the business.
Each man has been arrested on a
great many different counts, and as

ing them to run wide open for the past
few months, no difficulty will b3 en
countered in convicting them. The
minimum penalty for each count is
8100 fine and thirty days in jail, and
the prosecution will be vigorous.
