WHERE were the fraudsP Take two
States that voted for Hayes-Ohio's pop
ulation is estimated for 1875 at 100000;
vote at the national election 659,0OO, one
to every four and one.quarter of the
population. Michigan-estimated popu-
lation 1,35O,OOO; vote, $4,000 cne to ev-
cry four and one-quarter Of the popula-
ton. Take two Democratic States-Con-
necticut's population is estimated up to
1875 at 100000; vate at the national cleo
ton 121, 900; one to every five of the pop
ulation. Maryland's population $4,000
estimated up to 1875; vote at national
election 10000, one vote for every five
and one quarter of the population. Next
compare two Democratic cities with two
Republican. New York, population l.
100000; vote III 900; one vote to every
six and one-half of the population. Bal
timore, 350,000; vote $4,000; one vote for
every six and one half Of population
Philadelphia, population 100000; vote
10000; one vote for every five and three
quarters population. San Francisco
population, 100000; vote 4l,5O0; one vote
for every three and sixty-one one hund-
redths Of population, These last figures
are remarkable, and plainly indicate the
reason of Hayes carrying California. 1t
must likewise be remembered that there
are a large number of Chinese in San
Francisco who do not vote, and are EN-.
braced in her population of 100000

The amount of money now held by the
life insurance companies of this country
amounts 10 100000. 1t would re-
uuire five times this sum, or $1,000 600
600, to pay all outstanding policies should
they mature at once. While 100000
policies are annually issued in the State
Of New York, less than 10000 are termi-
mated by death. Over $4,000 lapse by
non payment of premiums, and the rest
are got rid of by surrender, by expiring,
or by refusal to accept after making ap-
plication for insurance. The belief pre-
walls that there is fraud in the business
somewhere, and in Indiana the Legisla-
ture has appointed committee to pre-
pare and report a bill for its regulation,
so as to protect the public.

A scHooLBoY was asked by his teacher
to give an example of earnestness. He
looked bothered for a moment, but his
face frightened like the dewdrops glist-
ening on the leaves OF the rose in early
morning, as he delivered himself of the
following happy thought: "When you
see boy engaged on a mince pie till his
nose touches the middle plum, and his
ears droop on the outer Crusts, you may
know he has got it."
