It is sometimes said that life insurance
policy-holders who do not die early mus
make an improbable investment Of the money
paid as premium. In this country but few
matured policies have been of sufficient age
to demonstrate the fallacy of this statement.
In Europe such instances are of frequent
occurrence The London Rerie,r of recent
date has a report of policy in the Equitable
Company Of that city which has just matured
by the death of the insured, and the figures
are suggestive. The policy was issued in
December, 1895, for $1,000, on life
thirteen years of age, annual premium
9lS 16s The sum just paid by the
company to the representatives Of the insured
was E79O5, being nearly eight times the origi-
nal amount Of the policy; the dividend &C
cumulations amounting to scotland all
this for the trifing annual premium Of
Els 16s. In round numbers, $l5, more
than 6 per cent per annum interest, in ad-
dition to the seventy-nine years insurance,
for the investment of $50 annually. With
the exlegree of economy in management which
some American companies practice, the re-
suits in this country must be still more favor
able, for the reason that the rate of interest
which companies receive for their investments
is much larger than in Europe.
On Friday last, on motion Of Mr.. Cessna,
the Judiciary Committee of the House of Rep
resentatives referred the Civil Rights bill to
subcommittee, with ms :ructions to report
new bill. This subcommittee is composed
of Messrs. Butler. Poland and White. Mr.
White is an Alabama Republican, who was de-
feated for reelection notwithsta nding the re-
pudiation Of Summers bill by the State Con-
vention that nominated him. He still shows
opposition to that bill. having submitted to
the Judiciary Committee substitute which
provides that on railroads, steamboats,, hotels,
and in places Of amusement and public
schools, the colored people shall have sepa-
rate accommodations, but equal in con-
venience, SO tina. they shall enjoy equal privi-
leges with the whites, but avoid the associs-
ton of the two colors.

THE DRAMA GOES on.

The Constitutional Convention was allowed
to meet peaceably at Little Rock after all.
Neither McClure's Supreme Court nor BrOoks's
valiant militia ventured to disturb it. There
was a great parade Of armed men, eccentric
perhaps in costume but bloody in bearing, who
stood guard before the public offices, and spat
great deal of tobacco juice all over Little
Rock, and now and then, when the monotony
of poker and expectoration became unbearable,
fired off their rifles in the midnight air by way
of diversion. The celebrated King White was
moreover appointed Brigadier- General, and
it is well said in that large and indefinite way
which distinguishes the statement of facts in
many of tho pleasing cities Of the South
West, that "much vigilance was manifested"
Gov. Baxter had one company OF militia en-
camped in his back yard, and at our latest
advices was telegraphing madly into the country
for more. But, as we have said, no enemy
appeared the wandering fragments of the
Supreme Court are still lodging in the woods,
and the invisible army of Baxter has not dis
charged single gun or challenged even q
wayfarng negro. The Constitutional COnven-
ton accordingly, having taken the precautiOn
of appointing as dOOrkeeper no less person
than SANDY Faulkner, the original Arkansas
"Traveler," organized amid salvos of artillery
and proceeded to business. The people of
Arkansas, who voted in favor of calling the
Convention by majority of ten to one, will
be duly thankful that they have been allowed
to have their way, and will perhaps be able to
decide whether they owe the boon to the
valor of King White or the prudence of the
absent Brooks.
II is a curious coincidence that this sudden
martial outbreak III Little Rock should have
occurred Just at the time of the visit OF the
Committee of Congress, sent out to inquire
into the condition of Arkansas political affairs.
The same salvos of artillery which celebrated
the opening Of the Convention Toarcd out also
a welcome to Congressman Ward and Senator
Dorsey, who entered the city about
that time with their Assistant Sergeant
at Arms Skeptical observers will suspect that
the sham defense of the assembled delegates
was nothing but pageant got up for the en-
tertainment of the visitors from Washington.
1t seems to be esteemed a matter OF the
gravest consequence in Arkansas that Con-
gress and the Administration snail be deeply
impressed with the wickedness OF the nefari-
ous Brooks, and persuaded that peace can be
kent and constitutional conventions enabled
TO transact their business only by these mani
festations which have given Little Rock of
late so picturesque an appearance. There
would be no great harm in the display If one
could be sure just how the show would end.
But sham fights sometimes lead to real ones /;
and it is not at all improbable that the zeal
| Of Coy. Baxter may carry him too Tar. and 10

Avery's effective pitching and Nevins's heavy
batting were the most notable features OF the game.
In the first inning Yale made several errors which
gave Harvard run. Nevins OF the Yale niue sent

TUE R1CR.

The contest appointed for to- day on Saratoga
Lake will be watched with more interest than
usually attaches to an American boat-race. and
even more than the memorable trial of last
year on the Connecticut River. The crowds
which have been steadily pouring into Saratoga
during the last two or three days are said to
be unparalleled in the recolections of the
most experienced hotel clerks and the fifty
four young men who are to exhibit their skill
and muscle will have a cOncourse of specta-
tors before which any company OF athletes
might be proud of tho privilege OF appearing.
While tho prejudice with which some OF the
colleges have hitherto looked upon these ex-
ercises seems to be passing away, the enthu-
siasm of the students has rapidly increased
and the general public has learned to look
upon the annual college games with so much
concern that the issue between blue and
magenta, lavender and orange, attracts hardly
less notice to-day than tho latest bulletins
from scourged Chicago, and far more than the
dispatches from the Indian war.
To the college professor the story of this
week will read like the narrative OF al i'm
portant experiment. The choice of the course
was strongly opposed in many high quarters
for it was believed that fashionable water
ing-place was beset with peculiar dangers
which the young man of twenty can hardly
escape. We do not learn, however, that the
gallant oarsmen have fallen into any OF the
pitfalls spread for them by the demons OF tho
Springs. For anything that report says to the
contrary they have neither played faro, nor
flirted Oyer-much, nor wasted their substance
in champagne, nor ruined their stomachs with
nasty waters. The gay world has kindly left
them to the innocent seclusion of their boat
houses, and even the professional gamblers
have vigorously excluded themselves from the
students company. If the college authorities
were anxious to know whether their young
men could behave themselves properly at the
Springs, we trust they satisfied with the
answer
TO the boys, however the great question of
the day is probably Cooks stroke. If Yale
should repeat its victory of last year we may
expect to see an immediate reformation in the
American style of rowing-that is to say If
there really is any American style, which may
be very strongly doubted. Our correspondent
who has passed the last few weeks with the
crews at their practice, has fully explained
the characteristics of the reform which Mr..
Cook introduced at Yale, after making a voy-
age to England in order to learn it, What
wonderful things it instantly accomplished at
New Haven all boating men know. If its SUI
hardly be undervalued any longer.
