The UNCERTAINTY or LIFE-During the
past week there has not been less than a
dozen wOrkmen killed 10 this city by sun.
stroke. II the facts were known it would
doubtless be found that the families of these
unfortunates are left in destitute circum-
stances, many Of them with the prospect Of
depending on the heartless charity Of the
world for support. Now, why is this ? II
these men, no matter how poverty stricken,
had exercised common prudence, they could
have prevented this double calamity. We
insist it is the grossest criminality on the
part Of mechanic especially, who is daily
exposed to the loss Of life and limb, to neg
iect the duty he owes to his wife and family
in refusing to provide FOR their support Ia
case Of his death, by accident or otherwise.
If there is reader Of this paper who has
failed to make such provision, we want him
to read the list Of payments made by the
TRAvELERs INSURANCE. COMPANY, or HAIR
FpRD, to mechanics alone, and then ask him
selfIth question, sWhat excuse can I Offer

this respect 7" feeling assured that if asked in

ed in Chicago, calling himself Col Collins,
of the LIST Miss. Cavalry. He presented let
ters of introduction to Mayor Rice and Mr..
+. q. Sherman, frr'n the Mayor of Granada,
Miss He had also letters purporting to be
written BY c. H. Mccormick, introducing
him to some of the wealthiest merchants in
the city. These letters all represented m
as collecting funds for an orphan asylum at
Granada, and recommended him to the citi-
zens as being the agent Of cause which
was well worthy Of their contributions. His
manner was oily and captivating, and he
pockoted quite large amount of money
during the short time he operated. One
day he was unfortunate enough to make his
appearance on Change, when he was recog-
nized as a swindler, named Blincoe, from
Lafayette county, Kentucky. Col Collins,
or AIR. Blincoe, disappeared mysteriously
upon this discovery. The detectives started
upon his trail, but nothing has since been
heard Of this Kentucky rifle man.
