HERE is an item which steady
drinkers should read and temperance
organizations use as an argument why
all men having policies of their lives
should be tetotlers: The Connecticut
Mutual Life Insurance Company re-
sisted the payment Of q policy on the
ground that the insured had
violated his agreement by the
excessive use of liquor, and
thereby assisted himself out of
the world. 1t was in evidence that
the deceased had drank brandy at the
rate of bottle and half day, be-
sides large amounts of wine and other
light drinks. 1t was strong case for
the company but by way of encour-
agement to moderate drinkers and to
give the facts we must state that the
jury found for the plaintiff, and the
company found itself out and injured.

LOWEST LIMIT OF ECONOMY.

The force of the Department has

all plans for increasing the public in

About 9 o'clock last evening the neishbor-

startled by the repeated reports of a revolver,
and shortly after, one Anderson Randall, a
mulatto, was marched into the First Precinct
Station.
A reporter of the BULLETIN, on ascertaining
that this man had shot and cut his wife in
front OF st. Paurs Church, Immediately hast
ened to the Charity Hospital, and there found
that the woman was simply cut on the lett
wrist, and not shot as stated by the excited
and bewildered crowd which congregated at
the Central Station and the Hospital.
On being interviewed Mrs. Randall, who
may perhaps be about twenty years of age,
and who was decidedly 'good-looking, said ::
My name is Rosanna Carey, and l am not
Randall's wife. He attacked and attempted
to kill me without provocation. Her injury
was slight, but by her cries and groans the

were most serious.
Anderson Randall gave the following state

and raised in Georgia. am cook in the Car

about four months ago my wife left me, TAX

she said she would send them the next Gay,
instead of which Gus. Blass and three friends
waited on me and threatened my life; went to
church last evening" and there saw my wife;
my blood was up, and as she came out l cut
her; the crowd gathered around attracted by
her cries; then fired the six shots from my
revolver in the air to frighten them away; the
