The Body Of One of the BalIoonista
Found.

-.
A Chicago journal. dispatch from White.
hall, Mich, dated Aug. 18th, says that the
body of N. s. Grimwood, the Chicago Eve
ming Journals reporter, who went up with
Donaldson in the missing balloon, was
found last Sunday on the beach of Lake
Michigan, near Stoney Greek, by A. Beck
worth. He had on all his clothes except
boots and bat. Letters and notes OF his
trip prove beyond doubt that it is he.
Whitehall is twelve miles north of Mus
kegon, on the Michigan shore of Lake Mich
igan, almost opposite Milwaukee. Stoney
Creek is near Whitehall. Without any par
ticulars as to the exact locality at which
the body wee found, we presume that it was
washed asboga from the lake, and that.
therefore, The theory OF The loss of the bal
loon in The lake w7s e. acs. Nothing be-
ing said The dispatch conce ming Mr..
iona dson or The balloon, NE take it for
granted thai they have not yet been found.

The Chicago Exposition. I

The Great Inter- State industrial Exposi-
ton, Of Chicago, opens on the 9Th of Sep
TENDER and closes October 9th. Al this
exposition, there will be rich and varied
display in the several departments OF
Science, Industry and Art, surprising any
thing ever presented to the American pub
lie. Great collections will be exhibited
from contributions to Natural History from
the Chicago Academy of Sciences. In the
display Of American artistic merit. there
will be examples Of the work of the most
eminent artists of the country, aud this
feature alone Of the exhibition 10 we'll
wsrth the visit. A large number Of the
paintings are already in the galleries.
Hou sehold and Decoration Art will not DO
lost sight of; special structure alone hav-
ing been erected for this department.. But,
perhaps, to great majority the most inter-
esting thing to witness of the exposition.
will be the display of processes of manu-
facture, something that is Away obstructive,
and much more varie ed aud extensive than
as shown at any Of the previous expositions.
In this department many will see sights
that will surprise them and make Al ever
lasting impression on their minds. Bear in
mind the machinery is in motion and the
manufacture of tho article goes on before
your eyes.
The exhibition building itself well pays
for the trouble of going down to Chicago.
Artistic n design and colossal in size it is q
marvel and wonder and complete ID all its
departments. No one, in fact should be
without seeing this building, and what it
contains. The number of people who will
visit Chicago during the exposition will we
are sure be something enormous, and rest
assured none willreturn disappointed.

The Tilton- Beecher Trial.

New York, June 9.--Brooklyn City Court
was packed this morning with spectators as
it never had been before during the trial
The entrance of Mr.. Beach, who was to de
liver the closing address, was the signal ioi
a storm of applause, which was with DIN
Guilty checked by the court officers. Ex
Judge Fullerton arrived shortly after and
similar ovation was given him. The friends
of the plaintiff were mustered in strong
force, and scarcely vacant space was to be
found in the room. The antc-ro0m and cor
ridors were thronged with dissatisfied par.
ties who were unable to gain admittance to
the courtroom.
The plaintiff was early in bis place behind
his counsel, and was closely surrounded by
the surgiug multitude. The thropg was SO
great that Judge Nelson gave instructions
to the officers in charge OF the court to make
some arrangements and prevent similar oc-
currence in future. The Judge cautioned
the audience to preserve the utmost silence.
MFR. Beecher and wife were absent when the
proceedings began.
Mr.. Beach then arose and said that at last
Theodore Titon had an opportunity to be
heard in a court of justice after having been
overcome with calumnies. At the church
investigation every one saw that I1lton ana
his witnesses were shut out from hearing,
and it was no wonder that public camor de'
manded that justice should be done 10 him
in this unfortunate transaction.
At this point Mr.. Beecher and his wife
came into the room and took their usual
places in the Plymouth throng.

VindEcation or the Life Association Of
America.

Early in April last certain persons repre-.
senting themselves as policy.holders Of the
Life Association Of America presented afi-
davits to the Missouri superintendent Of in
surance rejecting upon the integrity of the
officers Of the Association, charging that the
Association was unsound, and asking that its
condition be examined and receiver ap.
pointed. This was refused The Circuit
Court was then petitioped for n1dnddnlus
to compel the State superintendent TO make
an examination, but the Court, upon bear
ing, very properly regarded this as evidence
Of conspiracy to ruin the company, and re-
fused to grant the mdndamus. Mean while the
directors, in order to thoroughly vindicate
the management of the company, themselves
made an application to the superintendent of
insurance for personal examination Of its
afflirs. He complied, and the result is that
after patient and careful investigation the
superintendent declares that the company
possesses on six per cent. valuation Of its
reserve the large surplus of 1906, ,9940O.
Certain assets p hich the directors know to
be good were excluded by the superlntend-
ent on technical grounds, but if they were
allowed the surplus would be over one mil
lion of dollars. This official showing sets at
rest all question Of the soIvency Of the COM
papy and defeats the conspiracy.-The Spec.
tator (Ne,D York;, June, 1916.
On another page will be found report of
the official investigation of the Missouri In
suraDce Department into the condition Of
the affairs Of the Life Association Of Ame-
rica. The circumstances which led TO this
examination, and 10 which we have hereto
fore referred In the Under1rr1ter, are recited
by the president in an Introductory note.
The assault upon the Life Association was
one of the most unprovoked and utterly uu~
warrantable instances of malice we have ever
known. There was no occasion whatever
for the examination in question, but we are
glad 1t has been made, inasmuch as it puts
an effectual quietus upon the unreasoniDg
clamor of hostile parties as we'll as the ras-
cally designs of the iDsurgent forces.- Balti.
