Texas Table Talk.
From the San Antonio Herald.


A San Antonio gentleman recently
had occasion to visit neighboring
town. He did not expect much in
the way of mediation at the To-
cal hotel, and in this his aniicipstions
were more than realized. lie was
very hungry but had the good luck to
lose most of his appetite before he
got through with dinner, owing to
his discovering few blonde hairs in
the soup. lie thought the landlord
would feel very bad about it, but that
gentleman merely remarked, as be
excavated a perishing fly from the
butter: "All | ask is, Judge, that you
don't fish 'em out with your finger.
Yon have got to use a fork. tbs one
Of the rules of the house that no gen
tleman is expected to put his fingers
in the whites. This amt no railroad
town, but when it comes to style and
tone we carry off the blue ribbon ev.
cry time the horn toots"

Mr.. Co0lbaugh 'sprovidencc in pro-
curing and keeping up plenty Of life
insurance was remarkable. Hescems
to have begun about eleven years ago,
when he took out policy in the Ed
uitable life-Asaurance Society OF New
York for $1,000. This seems to have
been his only provision of the Kind
until 1872, when he began to increase
his insurance by taking out another
policy for $4,000 in tho Equitable,
one for $25, 900 in the Mutual Life Of
New York, and still another in the
Northwestern Mutual of Milwaukee,
making altogether total of $l00,0
1t is stated by the managers of the
Connecticut Mutual Life that he APP
piled to their company about three
years ago for $4,000 additional in.
snrancc, but the application was de-
clined, though ii does not clearly APP
pear for what reason. Mr.. Coolbaugh
had closer connection with life. in
surance than ia usual, from the fact
that he was Director in the Eguita-
bic of New York, and indeed the on
ly one it had in this city.
Naturally, the most interesting
question in reference to this insur-
ance is
WILL THE COMPANIES PAY?
IL looks as if they would not. The
case Of the first policy issued to de-
ceased by the Equitable differs from
that Of any of the others. The ref
erence to suicide in it is to the effect
that if the insured die by his own
hand within two years from the date
OF the policy, then the same is void.
But the two years we're long $50 pass
ed, and there will probably be no
question as to that policy. Il isquite
likely, however, in Wow Of the fact
of Mr.. Coolbaugh's connection with
the company, that it will not bubble
even about the other policy. The
other two companies have in their
policies proviso that they shall be
void If insured dies by his own hand,
sane or insane. They will, no doubt,
make a ght.-Chicago Tribune.
The Albany Journal has this to say |
OF the meaning of the result in the |
recent elections: sIt means that the |
flabby policies and ETHEREAL vagaries |
of sentimentalists, though they may
have embarrassed it for the moment,
have not impaired the essential
strength and energy OF the organiza-
ton. The only Northern State in
which the party has materially suffer-
ed is Ohio. Maine and Iowa did as
well in October as New York and
Wisconsin in November. In Ohio
there was feeble leadership, with
Stanley Matthews inordinate folly, a
bewildering and demoralizing confu-
sion of counsels. All unworthy surren-
der of the high republican ground,
and a weak Endorsement of what the
heart ofthe party really rejected"
