police in reeumbent position ON the
sidewalk, dead drunk. His forlorn
condition and pitable appearance had
their weight, and the gate was ord Tered
to be raised and let him pass out with
out paying toll.
Sam Shark thought he was a
whale, but by the time he works out
that three dollars and costs on the
streets, for getting beastly and uncon-
stitutionally drunk, he'll change his
mind and think he's been terrible
small sardine.
This closed business for the day.
Foss skipped out to see the latest re-
turns, while Bailey, Red and the rest
stole quietly out to attend to their
multiiarous and 0ner0us duties.
GRAND COLLEGE ENDOWMENT.
A pamphlet or manuel has just been
handed us of the Southwestern Life
Insurance Company, whereby they
propose to endow the Southwestern
University of Texas, at Galveston, for
one million of dollars. The South
western Life Insurance Company, OF
Dallas, with capital of two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars, propose to
endow this institution on plan per-
fectly novel, but practical, and the sue
cess certain to attend the efforts OF
Captain w. G.. Veal, the special agent
for this purpose, will be mutually ben.
eticial to the Life insurance Company
and to the University.
The University Is under the special
patronage and care of the Methodist
Episcopal Church of Texas.
We are glad to see that while this
young, prosperous and strong insur-
ance company is doing good to the
citizens of Texas at large, they are aid
ing In building up our institutions of
learning. 1t deserves the two-fold
patronage of our State. Home institu-
tions well patronized insure their sue
cess and renders them self sustaining.
The pamphlet contains the address
of the President of the Board Of
Trustees, and the advertisement Of the
university.
Call at the Office of the Company.
Over three thousand copies have been
published for general distribution.

never yet heard OF an instancelwhere
q man died, and no stipulation OF his
his policy were violated, whose
heirs did not get the money.
IL is bound to come and does
dl,Odys come, and this Is more
than can be said OF any other branch
OF business in the United States. Some
policies have failed TO be paid, only be-
cause they were issued on fraudulent
statements OF the holders Of the policy,
or some positive violation of the con-
tract as contained in the policy.
Why should this deter men from
taking policies, because some insur-
ance company has been forced or
chooses to reinsure their risks in some
other good company? "Where is your
neighbor and friend or relative
who died insured that his heirs
did not get the money il
he had complied with his part of
the contractY' we enquired OF an old
and experienced agent, who had paid
out over two hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars, and he assures us he
never knew OF case In any company
where the party failed to be paid.
Ii is said that ninety out OF every
hundred merchants fail In business
yet does it argue that men should not
engage In this pursuit, or that the
customer don't get valuable consider
alton; or does it deter others from en-
gaging in 1t?
The merchant fails, the customer
who buys of him don't lose but Of
tener the merchant fails because the
customer refuses to pay. So with in
surance. If the company goes out
and another assumes his risk he Is
still carried on safe. But suppose he
had died, his policy would have been
paid before any transfer could be made,
or if he dies afterward, the company
assuming the risk must and will pay
1t.
Men frequently say "Pve paid one,
two or three years and got nothing"
The risk was carried and he gets moth
ing simply because he didn't die. They
collect from those that did not die to
pay the dead, and II he has not died il
is simply his good fortune, aud he has
paid for the risk, as in fire insurance,
and has gotten q valuable considera-
ton.
We repeat, no policy whose holder has
died, without violation Of the condi-
tons of his policy, has ever failed to be
paid, and never will be. whether the
original company has gone out or not
for in that transfer it has been duly
cared for and protected, through tile
reserve fun Of the company assigning.
The Texas Mutual has retired from
business, but was absorbed by the
Alabama Gold, who received her
reserve. The Alabama Gold" 10 an
ably managed and strong company.
Why should any one object to such an
underwater and feel not AZ secure as
before?
1t is said that the Southern Life, Of
Memphis, is about to retire, but doubt
less some arrangement, which should
be entirely satisfactory and safe to Its
policy holders, win be made to protect
her policy holders from loss In case Of
death Of the insured.
No man has ever died yet who had
policy whose heirs did not receive
the money, IL the case was plain that
he Ind complied with all the terms of
his policy.

but tho First have been counted
and are published In our election
table this morning. No report has
been received from Valley Church,
but the vote cast at that pre-
clnct IL small and will have little or
no material effect upon the general re-
suit. A report received from Richard
son was manIlestly 30 erroneous that
IL IL omitted until II can be secured In
u corrected form.
The counting of the vote In the First
Ward still continues. Owing TO the
great length ofthe ticket, and the great

necessarily progresses slow. Attwelve

Interest seemed to be centred.
THE HERALD does not vouch for the
accuracy Of the figures given they are
unofficial. The Commercial OF yester-
day afternoon gives what 1t claims to
be the official vote of the Fourth Ward,
but In view of tho fact that the figures
given foot up total of 445 votes, when
but one hundred and sixty-odd were
cast, It would hardly be safe to base a
calculation upon that data. The fig
ures OF the Commercial may be correct,
but In view of the great discrepancy
between them and those secured by
The HERALD's reporter it would be
well enough to await the official count.
