SECURITY LIFE INSURANCE CoMPASY.-
A careful perusal Of the advertisement of
Mr.. P. A. Barker, agent of this noted life
insurance and annuity company, Of New
York, is invited. Our readers must not
confound this staunch life company with
. fire company of the same name, which
has been reported as heavy loser by the
Chicago fire. This company-the one for
which Mr.. Barker is agent-takes no other
than life risks, and, consequently, was not
affected by the disaster at Chicago. Its
terms are very liberal, and it bears very
high reputation for just and fair dealing.

LAD DRowNED.-At noon yesterday, while
some lads were playing on a small raft in
a batture pond near the head of Erato
street, one of them accidentally fell off and
was drowned, his companions running away
on seeing what had happened. Coroner
Creigh aeld an inquest, taking the body to
the Pacanier street stationhouse, as no one
came forward to claim it. Although not less
than three hundred children congregated,
not one of them knew who the drowned
boy was. The corpse will remain at the
calaboose until this morning, unless sooner
claimed. He was about nine or ten years
old, light brown hair, gray tweed clothing
and brown felt hat. 1t is thought that his
name is Ninion Turner, the mother living
at No. l24 Julia street.
