A TERRIBLE NoR1HER prevailed during
yesterday and the day before Snow
and rain squalls and deluges of dust
prevailed. TIE temperature is terribly
chilled and winter has come again. We
had such spells as this two years ago.
Old settlers refer back to go as a like
season to this. 1t is absolutely terrible.
Ones spirits 60 down with the thermo-
meter during such bitter visitations.
The wind cuts like knife and there is
no comfort to be had excepting in the
close neighborhood of hot stoves or un-
der the covering of a we'll clothed bed
A very little of such abominable, I'M
reasonable weather goes long way.
There we're several snow squalls yester-
day and the mountain tops hereabout
are white again.

CoMPARE.-An advertisement, headed
as above, appears in our columns to-day
to which we invite the attention of our
readers. Life insurance is no longer an
experiment but is now one of the lead
ing benevolent Institutions and financial
operations Of the day, and is patronized
by the ablest fnanciers and economists,
the shrewdest business men, and the
best citizens of the United States. The
accumulated assets of the companies
are largely in excess CT the deposits in
the Savings banks of the country, and
the amount paid for death claims last
year, in the United States, was over
fifteen millions. Who can say how
much misery and crime.w spared US
by this wise provision made by those
who have gone before? 1t is claimed,
and we believe justly, that all the COM
panies now doing business are respon-
sible for the amount of insuranc e issued,
but there appears to be different modes
Of conducting the companies, some of
which operate much more in favor of the
policy holders than others, and we have
reason to believe, that too many insure
giving the matter the considera-
lion that the importance of the step
would seem to demand and if there is
The difference in the workings of the
that the tabular statement
indicates, it certainly behooves our citi-
,ens to inquire into it. The agents of
he Mutual Life seem to court compare
ION, and from the knowledge we have of
he business, We should certainly say to
my one who proposes to invest, or to
hange their company, before you do so
'ost yourselves, and compare the ad-
an,ages of the different companies, as
roved by examples.

DELOW Is TABULAR STATEMENT OF
ID the proportion of tine Premiums paid to sew
eral Life Insurance Companies, which have been
returned to policy holders dividends, since the
organization Of the Companies. The figures are
taken from the sworn statements Of the respective
Companies to the Commissioners of Insurance.
As Life Insurance rates, in all companies, are in
every case higher than the estimated cost of in
surance, there is, ought to be, at the end of
each year surplus, which varies according to the
expenditures arising from working expenses,
death claims, etc.

How A PARTY OF PLEASURE Seekers

How PARTY OF PLEASURE Seekers
GOT CAST AwAY.-On Saturday night a
party consisting of Joe Cowea of the
Warm Springs, Harry Day, 2. S. Ed !.
ridge, "Braggy" young gentleman
named Mourse, lately from Chicago, to
whom the boys were showing the sights,
started in Doc. Benton's nice new car
riage and with team of four horses for
Virginia city. They drove along leis.
'urely, telling yarns and anticipating a
good time in Virginia, until they got up
among the Chalk Hills, when, all at
once, the team having gotten off the di-
rect road, over went the carriage and
out went its occupants into the dust.
A French story that Cowen was telling
Was nipped offwith an alarming sudden
ness The team broke and ran, and
there they were, cast away in the dark
ness with nothing bot one bottle of Mart
Reese's soothing syrup to comfort them
Finding that no bones we're broken but
that the thread of Joe's yarn was, it was
suggested that he finish the story, which
he did with appropriate coolness, after
which the party took up line of march
for the Mound House. Upon reaching
that station they found Ned Reese, the
Telegraph operator, ready to assist them,
which be did BY signalling the down
train to stop. Getting aboard the cars
they moved on until they got abreast of
the Warm Springs where they got of
and footed it across lots to Governs hos
pits BILE head quarters. The horses were
-eeaptured next morning at the New /
York House, and the carriage was
brought down here for repairs. They
were lucky to get of with no worse re.
asltss than the partisl emashing Of their
carriage.
